Yan Ruolan had an intuition that in this matter, Yecheng had definitely lied.
After Yan Ruolan finished speaking, she looked at Yan Junmei, "Junmei, you agree, don’t you? Fortunately, with today’s advanced technology, some lies can’t be hidden. Whether it’s true or not, this matter needs to be clarified. The Gu Family is no ordinary family, and when it comes to bloodlines, everything must be clear and transparent."
After Yan Ruolan had spoken, she then looked at Yecheng, "Yecheng, don’t blame your aunt for being nosy. There are some things your mother can’t bring herself to say, so someone has to speak up. Since the rumors are so rampant, they can’t be completely unfounded. If our Gu Family doesn’t produce some tangible evidence, those gossipmongers will say God knows what."
"I have my own plans about this matter, so Aunt needn’t worry," Gu Yecheng thought of something, "As for the test, it’s completely unnecessary. It’s an insult to me and my wife, so I will not undergo this test."
He had thought about taking a test before, to confirm whether they were his flesh and blood, but now it seemed unnecessary.
Going for the test now would be an insult to Xiaofeng and himself, so he abandoned that idea.
"Acheng," Yan Junmei became angry, "What your aunt said, I also wanted to say. If you can’t prove that they are the Gu Family’s flesh and blood, in my opinion, I will never agree to them entering the Gu Family."
She knew her son well, and his words and current attitude indicated that they were definitely not the Gu Family’s flesh and blood.
If they were not the Gu Family’s flesh and blood, she naturally had the right to stop them from coming back, or not let them in at all.
Gu Yecheng stood up, not wanting to argue with Yan Junmei any longer, "Mom, I will handle my own affairs. You just need to prepare to be a grandmother. I have already decided to have a wedding in May. After all, many families in the Imperial Capital already know Xiaofeng is my wife. We must invite everyone to celebrate. We can’t give them the impression that I can’t afford even a wedding banquet."
He believed that his mother’s prejudice was only temporary and that after some time, she would surely accept it.
"Yecheng, you can’t be serious. You still want to give that woman a grand wedding? Have you lost your mind?" Yan Ruolan was incredulous, "Yes, she is the daughter of the Quan Family, but that doesn’t change the fact she grew up in the countryside. The opposition is just a peasant chicken turned into a phoenix; deep down, she’s still a peasant chicken, and nobody can change that fact."
Gu Yecheng must have gone mad.
Hearing Yan Ruolan’s words, Gu Yecheng slightly displeased, "Aunt doubts my judgment. Don’t forget, I also lived in the countryside for the past three years, or perhaps in my cousin’s eyes, I have turned into a peasant chicken too."
"That is not what I meant. I’m saying that now you can come together, but the gap between you will grow over the years. This gap includes your perspectives, your worldview, and your educations. Your uncle and I are living examples. I returned from studying overseas, but he was just a high school graduate. I couldn’t admire him, and he couldn’t admire me."
"You are you, I am me. I am not you."
"Yecheng, what your aunt said makes sense. In the beginning, two people might like and admire each other, but living together, it might turn into nothing. Xiaofeng indeed looks pretty, and she has a sort of charm that city folks don’t possess." Yan Junmei almost said it was a rustic charm.
"Mom, I’ve made my decision. Besides, you know my health condition the best. You should be glad that I’ve found a wife now; otherwise, it wasn’t even sure whether you could have a daughter-in-law in your lifetime. Mom, I mean what I say, you can try me." Leaving these words, Gu Yecheng went to another courtyard to talk to his grandfather.
Listening to Gu Yecheng’s words, Yan Ruolan was somewhat stunned, "Junmei, what does Acheng mean, he will marry no one but Su Xiaofeng?"
Yan Junmei’s face showed defeat.
She knew her son best. What he said, he could do.
Indeed, before, she only wished that Acheng would meet a suitable girl and get married, but now that Yecheng was married, she disliked that the bride came with children into the Gu Family.
"You know his nature, he says what he can do," Yan Junmei nodded.
"Junmei, this is simple. If Yecheng refuses, we can take action ourselves," Yan Ruolan proposed, "You find an opportunity to get close to the kids, collect some of their hair or something, then find a chance to get some of Yecheng’s hair, and send all the hair samples for testing. I heard the accuracy of these things is very high; there can’t be any mistakes."
