Gu's mother thought her son-in-law was just joking to please her, considering what kind of person her son-in-law was and the size of the house he lived in. Did he really need to squeeze in with her with a child?
Gu's father was not like Gu's mother and did not know the whole story. He thought the man sounded like a loser who wanted to move in with his in-laws because he couldn't afford a place of his own. Wouldn't that be a laughingstock? Moreover, what did he mean by that?
A child?
They weren't even married, what child?
Gu's father blurted out, facing Yebai and his daughter, "Young people, full of vigor and prone to impulsiveness, but having children, according to our old Chinese traditions, must follow proper marriage. —Nuannuan, you weren't like this before."
Of course, Gu Nuan wouldn't be like that anymore. She was a bit stunned after hearing her father's words. Hadn't she married Yebai?
