840: The in-laws met.

"Auntie, I usually read books, and occasionally I go to the movies."

Wang Yi asked a few questions.

Chief Gu spoke up.

"Xiao Yu, when are your parents free? We would like to meet them."

Upon hearing this, Shi Yu replied,

"Uncle and Auntie, my mom and dad will arrive in Yangcheng this morning."

"That's wonderful," Chief Gu said with a chuckle.

"I will have Gu Yuan go pick them up and invite them to our home for a meal to discuss your wedding..."

Hearing the mention of their wedding, Shi Yu blushed.

"Okay."

Gu Yuan had already called her parents; they were coming this time for the sake of their wedding. Uncle Gu had indeed expressed this intention before...

Wang Yi took out a box carved with many exquisite patterns.

"Xiao Yu, this is a gift from me for our first meeting."

Hearing Wang Yi's words, Shi Yu stood up and accepted it with both hands.

"Thank you, Auntie."

Chief Gu brought out a large red envelope.

"This is for you from me."

"Thank you, Uncle."

Shi Yu felt even more nervous. She knew the red envelope contained money, but she didn't know what the gift in the beautiful box was.

She couldn't open it now, so she would just have to wait until she got back to see what it was.

Her parents had also prepared a gift for Gu Yuan.

"This is a gift from your Little Uncle for your first meeting."

Little Uncle Wang took out a slightly smaller box, but the craftsmanship was just as exquisite as the one Wang Yi had given.

"Thank you, Little Uncle."

Little Uncle Wang heard this and said with a chuckle,

"You're welcome."

This was his first time meeting his Niece-in-law. Hahaha, luckily he had prepared these gifts for the children long ago; bringing them out now was just right.

He had also found some antique jewelry abroad for his Niece, along with other excellent gemstones, jade, and precious accessories.

His Niece couldn't wear them now, but he felt that in ten or twenty years, she would definitely be able to use them.

Or perhaps in the future, when his Niece went to Hong Kong City, she might be able to wear them.

Thinking of this, Little Uncle Wang decided that he would open more jewelry and antique stores in the future so he could collect more treasures for his Niece.

Gu Yuan checked his watch.

"Mom, Dad, it's still early. Should Xiao Yu and I go pick up her parents?"

"Okay," Chief Gu agreed immediately.

"Niannian, you go with Xiao Jing and Xiao Jin to pick up Xiao Yu's parents."

Xiao Niannian, Lu Jing, and Gu Jin stood up immediately.

Lu Jing drove, Xiao Niannian sat in the passenger seat, and Gu Jin sat in the back.

Seeing his Brother-in-law holding his sister's hand with his right hand, Gu Jin found it a bit of an eyesore.

"Old Lu, let go of her hand."

Hearing Gu Jin's words, Xiao Niannian pursed her lips and smiled.

Lu Jing acted as if he hadn't heard anything.

In Gu Yuan's car, Shi Yu spoke up.

"Brother Yuan, your parents have such a strong presence. You said they used to work in the Military Unit, but what about now?"

Hearing his fiancée's words, Gu Yuan smiled and said,

"My dad is still in the Military Unit."

What? Shi Yu was surprised and looked at Gu Yuan.

Uncle Gu should be about the same age as her father, but he looked even younger.

So his position should be similar to her father's.

Thinking of this, she didn't feel as nervous anymore.

"And what about Auntie?"

Hearing this, Gu Yuan was silent for a moment, then said,

"My mom also used to be in the Military Unit, but something happened later, and now she..."

Gu Yuan had previously sought his parents' opinion, and they both agreed to tell Shi Yu about his mother's situation.

After listening, Shi Yu's eyes widened.

"You mean, Auntie was actually..."

She had never expected that Gu Yuan's mother was in such a situation.

"Niannian was lost for twenty years and suffered outside for twenty years?"

Thinking of Niannian wandering outside for twenty years, she felt terrible.

"Gu Yuan, let's be even better to Niannian in the future..."

Sitting in the car, Xiao Niannian was very happy to hear Shi Yu's words.

Her brother really had good taste, finding such a good wife as Shi Yu.

Her parents had sent people to investigate Shi Yu, and she knew everything about her.

Shi Yu and her parents were both very good people.

The Shi family and the Gu Family also had quite a connection.

Soon, they arrived at the Train Station.

Shi Yu's parents walked out.

"Uncle Shi, Auntie."

Gu Yuan walked up and greeted them.

"Xiao Yuan, hello."

Shi Yu's parents nodded with a smile.

"You've worked hard after such a long train ride..."

Xiao Niannian, Lu Jing, and Gu Yuan also stepped forward to greet them.

"Hello, Uncle and Auntie."

"Uncle, Auntie, this is my younger brother Gu Jin, this is my younger sister Xiao Niannian, and my Brother-in-law Lu Jing."

Hearing this, Shi Yu's parents looked at them.

When seeing Lu Jing, Shi Yu's father felt he looked familiar.

Why did he feel Lu Jing was so familiar?

Where had he seen him? The name was also very familiar.

Lu Jing? The Lu Jing from the Chengdu Flight Brigade? Could it really be that kid?

"Are you Lu Jing from the Chengdu Flight Brigade?"

"Yes, I am."

Hearing Lu Jing's words, Shi Yu's father smiled and looked him over.

"Good lad, not bad."

Shi Yu's mother looked at Xiao Niannian and said gently,

"Niannian, hello. Auntie has heard about you from Xiao Yu; you are very outstanding..."

Shi Yu's mother looked at Xiao Niannian, her eyes full of joy.

"Thank you for the compliment, Auntie."

The car arrived at the courtyard.

"Uncle, Auntie, we're here."

Shi Yu's parents got out of the car, and when they saw the Western-style house in front of them, they were both stunned.

Shi Yu's father keenly noticed that there were quite a few people in the courtyard.

Gu Yuan said his parents used to work in the Military Unit. Could it be that they were just like him?

Shi Yu's father was currently a Division Commander and would be retiring in a few years.

However, no matter what, they were here! They had met Gu Yuan; being able to raise a son like Gu Yuan, and having such an outstanding daughter like Xiao Niannian, the Gu Family must be very good.

"Welcome."

Chief Gu and Wang Yi appeared at the door.

Seeing this, Shi Yu's father was stunned.

This is not...

"Chief Gu."

"comrade Shi, hello."

"Chief Gu, Xiao Yuan is your son? I didn't even imagine..."

Shi Yu's father was incredibly excited! He never expected that the partner his daughter found was actually Chief Gu's Eldest Son. Although the Shi family had been in the military for three generations, the Gu Family was different.

His father used to be a soldier under Old Chief Gu, and he himself had been under Chief Gu. He didn't expect that now, his daughter would find such a good family to marry into.

Chief Gu? Shi Yu's mother looked at Chief Gu, thinking of what her husband had said earlier.

This was actually that Chief Gu from the Capital City's Gu Family?

She had previously thought that the person her daughter found might come from a family not as good as theirs, but Gu Yuan was outstanding and treated her daughter well. When her daughter married Gu Yuan, she wouldn't have to live with her in-laws...

She didn't expect that Gu Yuan was actually the eldest grandson of the Capital City's Gu Family. Her husband was also a subordinate of Gu Yuan's father. This was such a pleasant surprise.
