Eighties Sweetheart Wife-Chapter 644: Love in the Details

Xia Xindong and Jin Ju left.

After they left, Zhu Feng quietly discussed with Old Mrs. Song.

Should they contact the Jin family now?

Both sides were well aware of the situation, and it was impossible for the parents of the Jin family not to know, so was it somewhat inappropriate for the Xia family to pretend to be deaf and dumb?

But at the same time, she was worried about how it would look if they visited the Jin family rashly.

The Jin family was also a prestigious household, and it was only because of Little Nuan and Dongdong that their family was enjoying their current days.

However, she had to be aware of the kind of family and social standing she originally belonged to.

Therefore, these two elderly ladies never dared to be arrogant.

They adhered to the saying "Heaven might bring calamity, and human actions might bring misfortune," and knew they should never be haughty, no matter the situation.

Keeping a low profile was one thing, but the matters still had to be taken care of.

The only person she could discuss with was Old Mrs. Song.

Unexpectedly, Qin Suyun arrived.

It wasn’t Qin Suyun’s first visit to the West Mountain Villa District.

But she had only been here once before.

Instead, she had visited the mountain wilderness cottage several times.

In fact, it was not originally called that, but Elder Master Jin and Old Mr. Ji insisted on calling it the mountain wilderness cottage.

If one didn’t turn their head to look around and only viewed this area, it truly felt as if one were in the midst of the mountains and wilderness.

In the past... the best they could hope for was a stay at a sanatorium.

But now, this place seemed even better than a sanatorium.

It has to be said, every single thing Little Nuan did could touch a person’s heart.

Then she also learned that Xia Xindong and Jin Ju had joined the aid team together.

Qin Suyun thought to herself that now was the time for her to step forward.

After looking around and weighing her options, she decided she was the best candidate to act as the point of contact.

She had not informed Little Nuan about this matter, as Little Nuan was currently occupied with other things.

Consequently, Qin Suyun made her way directly there.

One had to say, her son was also putting in great effort for a good cause.

If the entire area was to be fully developed, there would be relevant supporting facilities, like security and the like.

But for certain considerations, they had not set up a security post at present.

The previous year, her son had established a technology center here.

And they had moved the original agricultural research institute to the north.

Now, as the city was developing and the population inevitably growing larger, the problem they faced was that the agricultural research institute was somewhat outdated for this location.

Gu Huai’an had sought government approval, which resulted in a substantial allocation of funds and a tract of fertile land.

The agricultural research institute had happily relocated.

A technology center was then built here.

But in truth, the technology center was still unoccupied at the moment.

It was only called a technology center for the time being, yet a wall had been erected, and roads had been repaired; to enter the West Mountain Villa District, one must pass through the main gate of this technology center.

In fact, this arrangement was quite good.

After all, this was neither Nan City nor Xiangjiang.

Since property privatization was not prominent here, setting up a security service would definitely lead to dissatisfaction among most people.

In truth, there had already been many opposing voices.

Everything requires a process of gradual progression, and now it seemed that such an arrangement was indeed wise.

When she arrived, Zhu Feng and Old Mrs. Song were just discussing this matter.

Qin Suyun spoke with a cheerful smile about the Jin family.

She mentioned that Elder Master Jin’s birthday was in a few days, but he did not want to make a big deal of it, so he had only invited close acquaintances to gather.

From her perspective, regardless of everything, Jin Ju and Xia Xindong were now colleagues.

There was nothing wrong with the two families interacting, and moreover, once the families were in contact, the children, who were abroad, whether writing letters or making phone calls, could exchange information with each other, which was an excellent thing.

Zhu Feng naturally beamed with joy, and Old Mrs. Song too felt that her granddaughter’s future mother-in-law really knew how to conduct herself.

However, as it was Elder Master Jin’s birthday, Zhu Feng and Old Mrs. Song couldn’t properly attend, but Song Liang and Xia Guilan could.

And by taking Little Nuan along, the visit was set.

Thus, the two families got in touch just like that.

Jin Ju’s parents also breathed a sigh of relief.

Initially, they were worried about how to make contact.

Their child was a daughter; would it seem improper if they were too proactive?

But if they weren’t proactive, would the other family feel their status was too high and feel too intimidated to reach out?

After much deliberation and indecisiveness, thankfully Qin Suyun resolved everything.

Then Chu Zizhou’s mother, Guo Xia, also asked Qin Suyun for help.

Now, with just one more year until she graduated from the music academy, there was no doubt that Song Ting would return to her original place of work.

Or perhaps she might go abroad for further study.

But in any case, they wanted to settle the children’s marriage matters.

With Qin Suyun mediating, Chu Zizhou and Song Ting got engaged.

But there were also Gu Huai’an and Song Yunuan to consider.

Qin Suyun didn’t feel it was her place to say, so Xia Guilan spoke to her daughter, "You two are different from others, in your mother’s eyes, both you and Gu Huai’an are extraordinary people.

But even if you were deities descended to earth, you’d still have to live a mortal life. Now that dating involves talk of marriage, even if there’s no plan to marry right away, can you at least get engaged?"

Song Yunuan’s smile was radiant, "There’s no problem with that."

Indeed, Song Yunuan really didn’t understand why everyone was so cautious. Did she ever show any reluctance to marry Gu Huai’an?

Not at all.

Yet, Qin Suyun thought to herself that in the past, someone like Little Nuan quite possibly could have led an entire team.

For someone like her, marriage and having children didn’t hold much significance.

But these were words she couldn’t say.

Especially since Huai’an was her son.

The engagements for both families weren’t celebrated with pomp and circumstance, but a simple ceremony was held within a certain circle.

Chu Zizhou and Song Ting went first.

After half a year, which was after the new year turned over, Song Yunuan and Gu Huai’an became engaged.

Old Mr. Xie said, when the two of them married, he would act as their officiant.

As for whether Wang Mengdan was envious? She truly was very envious.

Having Old Mr. Xie act as the officiant for their marriage was an extraordinary honor.

Just one photo could be boasted about for a lifetime.

It would benefit generations to come.

Moreover, she realized that Gu Huai’an and Song Yunuan interacted differently from others.

Their affection was delicate, just like a gentle stream.

For instance, when Little Nuan casually picked up a fallen leaf and asked Huai’an if it was pretty, Huai’an would smile and praise it, complimenting Little Nuan’s taste. He would carefully preserve it, turning it into a framed painting to hang in his office.

Theirs was love built from little moments.

Not like her own son and Shu Xiang, with their fighting, making up, crying, and laughing—an intense love that everyone knew about.

Now it had been quite some time since Shu Xiang and her son broke up.

Rumor had it that Shu Xiang went to another place to study. Exactly where, she wasn’t sure; to be honest, she could find out if she wanted to investigate.

But was there any need to investigate?

She thought her son was good, but the Shu family probably thought their daughter was good too.

They wouldn’t want her to be slighted again, right?

Wang Mengdan went to Qin Suyun, organized her thoughts, sighed, and despite feeling it was inappropriate, she still bit the bullet and said, "...Big sister, look at Huaiming now, refusing to find a girlfriend, holding onto something of hers and not willing to return it, just dragging things out is no solution. Could I ask Little Nuan to go to the Shu family and inquire about the situation? If Shu Xiang still has Huaiming in her heart, could they be reconciled?"
