Xianyuan Farm

In the afternoon, he went to the bank with Lin Yuantao and the others, and transferred this month's nearly 10 million bonus to Gu Hongyu's card in person. Then Gu Hongyu said goodbye to them and took Mei Ning to his future father-in-law's home. .

The two elderly people who knew that Gu Hongyu was coming to their home greeted him at the gate of the community, which shows that the two elderly people recognized and valued Gu Hongyu.

Yes, they occasionally listened to Mei Ning's narration on the phone, and the news that Mei Ning told them personally when she returned to Xiangjiang this time was that Gu Hongyu was very rich, and his assets were at least several hundred million. And all of this was earned by Gu Hongyu himself.

It's not that Mei Ning's parents are greedy for vanity, but they would benefit from having a son-in-law who makes a lot of money. But no, Gu Hongyu and Mei Ning have already achieved such a record in just half a year after graduating from college. It's a big business, and not everyone can do this. ,

"Uncle, aunt, we are all a family, why are you all here at the gate of the community!" Gu Hongyu, Mei Ning's parents, went to greet her in a gentle manner.

"Haha, it's okay. We just retired and had nothing to do. We can't walk around in the community and exercise." Mei Ning's father found an excuse that was not a reason.

"Dad, go home, what are you doing standing outside!" Mei Ning started chatting while watching the family standing outside, regardless of the other neighbors around her. She couldn't stand her thin skin.

"Haha, you girl, what's the point of being embarrassed when a boy gets married and a girl gets married?" Mei Ning's mother had a funny look on her face, but she immediately changed her tune when she saw Mei Ning's red face: "Old man, why don't you bring it with you?" Xiao Gu went back to drink some tea. After walking such a long way, did he drink it now? "

"Okay, let's go back now!" Mei's father happily agreed.

But after they left, the neighbors in the community started talking.

"Did you see that? That gentle boy just now is Mei Ning's boyfriend. This guy is pretty good-looking, well-proportioned, and makes people like him." The aunt, who thought she was about the same age as Mei Ning's mother, said gossiping.

"Aunt Wu, she seems to be a nice person, but I heard that the man is just a land contractor to grow vegetables. I didn't see that Lao Mei's family has been receiving vegetables from other places by mail for a long time. Isn't it just vegetables? There is no need to mail them. , It’s really the price of turning tofu into meat!”

A young daughter-in-law in her early thirties was all dressed up, her face was covered with a thick layer of rouge, and her lips were dyed red. She looked like she was not a good girl, and she spoke in a strange way.

"Sister Zhang family, you can't say that. From these small details, you can still see the boy's respect for Mei Ning's parents. Besides, who said vegetables are not valuable? Now there is a vegetable in Xiangjiang that is very popular. , they are only sold in big hotels and restaurants. I heard that they are only available in limited quantities and will be sold out if you arrive late. A plate of side dishes is more expensive than delicacies from the mountains and seas, but people still flock to eat them. Do you think this is strange? "Is this related to the Mei family? A nice middle-aged woman said helpfully.

"Yes, I really know this. Isn't my husband from a government agency in the district? Last time someone asked him to do something to entertain our family at the Hongxing Hotel. There were several of the hotel's signature dishes there, and there were only a few of them. Vegetarian dishes. I thought the person who invited us to dinner was stingy at first, but when I asked later, I found out that these vegetables are in limited supply. The person who invited us to dinner had made reservations in advance, but the taste was amazing. I still remember it fondly!"

This middle-aged woman is obviously much more elegantly dressed. He said these words directly and with a show-off tone, which immediately made the scene become cold.

However, they had mixed opinions about Gu Hongyu's arrival.

Gu Hongyu listened to these comments and took it for fun. Some people said right and wrong that he couldn't control others, at least he could control his own words and deeds.

"Xiao Gu, you must have worked hard to come here from such a long distance. Drink some water!" Mei's father said happily. They liked Gu Hongyu more and more. Although Gu Hongyu was young and rich, he was not ostentatious at all and still maintained his attitude. The low-key attitude made them very satisfied.

Gu Hongyu took the tea cup with both hands and said with a smile: "It's not hard, I just followed the big truck transporting vegetables. I slept in the truck and arrived the next day."

"Mei Ning's cousin is getting married this time. Originally, I didn't plan to call you over because you have so many things to do, but there are some things we can't talk about on the phone, so it's better for you to come in person." Mei's father sighed when he said this. There was a sound.

Just as Mei's father was talking, the family, who had been smiling just now, suddenly became melancholy. What on earth is going on?

Gu Hongyu asked seriously: "Uncle, you are not an outsider now, and I have never regarded myself as an outsider. If you have any difficulties, just tell me and see if there is any way to solve it?"

"It's a long story to say. Our Mei family is quite a big family in Xiangjiang. Every generation has a clan leader. Even if we have been in the city for a long time, we still can't get rid of the constraints of the family, especially Any marriage discussions below must be approved by the family patriarch, do you understand what I say?" Mei's father said to Gu Hongyu.

Gu Hongyu nodded. In fact, in many places in China, the reality of large families is preserved. Gu Hongyu’s family has the Gu family lineage of Shancheng in Shancheng. It can be traced back to the Qin Dynasty. Some surnames were even earlier in Xia Dynasty. Family records existed in the Shang and Zhou dynasties, but many surnames disappeared and changed in the torrent of history. In the end, hundreds or thousands of surnames were passed down.

Although the family still exists, most of them are just a formality, just hold a clan meeting. The clan leader has no rights. However, the situation of the Mei family is different. The clan leader can still give orders to a member of the big family, and the clan members dare not disobey. .

Gu Hongyu guessed that something might have happened between him and Mei Ning, so he asked: "Did the matter between me and Xiao Ning not have the consent of the family, or does the family need me to meet certain standards before marrying Xiao Ning?"

Mei's father shook his head: "No, this matter is caused by Uncle Mei Ning. In fact, the words of the current patriarch of our Mei family are useless. All the power is concentrated in the hands of my eldest brother, because he is a descendant of Xiangjiang. The section chief in the district has to go to him for many things in the family. In this way, Risheng can say that even as the current head of the Mei family, my third uncle obeys my eldest brother’s words..."

After all the foreshadowing, Gu Hongyu also felt that there was something strange in it: "Uncle, you might as well tell me directly, what exactly does Mei Ning's uncle think?"

"Well, it's not about Mei Ning's cousin getting married this time. Their family has hired a deputy district chief of the Haigang District under the jurisdiction of the local Xiangjiang. It is said that this time Mei Ning's cousin will be able to come to the Haigang District as soon as he gets married. Being a clerk was already a given in the class, but something unexpected happened when Mei Ning was called back to attend the wedding. "

"During the wedding rehearsal, I don't know where the son of the mayor of Haigang District met Mei Ning and immediately fell in love with her. During this time, he was either sending flowers or pestering her with phone calls. Xiao Ning did not dare to go out or turn on her mobile phone. !”

It turns out that Mei Ning went to pick him up so early today because she was afraid that she would shut down her phone and Gu Hongyu couldn't find her, or because she didn't want to tell Gu Hongyu about the matter!

Mei Ning has always been so considerate and generally passive in character. But when she was in college, she somehow fell in love with Gu Hongyu and took the initiative!

"No, he's the one who stole his girlfriend. He must not just swallow it!" Gu Hongyu's heart suddenly became angry and he thought to himself.

"Xiao Gu, this is not over yet. If we say that he has been pestering Xiao Ning, the most we can do is ignore him. But this guy is also smart. After knowing the relationship between my eldest brother and my family, he put pressure on his family, saying that If Mei Ning doesn't date him, Mei Ning's cousin Mei Jun won't be able to enter the district's government agencies. That's a golden job for civil servants. Naturally, my eldest brother and his family are anxious. He has come to his door several times, always telling Mei Ning to pretend. Let’s talk about being friends with the district chief, and it won’t be too late to break up after Mei Jun goes to work in the district.” Mei’s father was in a low mood.

"Shameful, are you still a member of the same family? You have simply lost your conscience!" With a bang, Gu Hongyu crushed the tea cup in his hand.

Ignoring the scalding tea and shattered glass, Gu Hongyu raised his head and said firmly: "As Mei Ning's boyfriend, I will not agree to this matter. Don't even think about harming Mei Ning for their respective interests." "Uncle, it's not appropriate for you to take part in this matter. Let me handle it!"

"This, this... Xiao Gu, I let you get involved in this matter. I'm really speechless as an uncle!" Mei's father sighed a lot today. As a student who teaches and educates people, He said it was really hard for him to find a solution to these things.

"Don't worry, I have been beside Xiao Ning during this period, and no one will bully her!" Gu Hongyu promised again and again.

Just as the room fell into a deep depression, there was a knock on the door.

A magnetic and slightly hoarse voice came from outside the room: "Jian'an, Xiaoning, are you at home?"

Jian'an is the name of Mei's father, and his full name is Mei Jian'an.

Father Mei hesitated for a moment, then stood up and walked towards the door.

Gu Hongyu turned to Mei Ning: "Don't be afraid, I'm here. As long as you don't want to do something, I guarantee that those who have ulterior motives for you will be disappointed!"

At this moment, the door of the room opened, and there was more than one person outside the room. Behind a middle-aged man who looked very similar to Mei's father, there were also two young people, one of whom had a similar face to the middle-aged man, and the other one. With a pink head and a pink brain, at first glance, he looks like a pretty boy who indulges in excessive sexual activities.

"Hey, Ning Ning is at home. Why didn't she pick up the phone and give you a gift and go back the way she came?" The pretty boy immediately said jokingly, regardless of the occasion.
