The Fat Wife of the 1980s Awakens

Xu Xiufang couldn't help but burst out laughing, she didn't expect that Aunt Xie actually got inspiration from her previous help to Zhou Lijuan in pursuing her eldest brother. She thought that Aunt Xie simply wanted Xie Chunyan and Feng Dongling to sit down and have a good talk, but she didn't expect that Aunt Xie had such a clever arrangement.

Although this trick is simple, it hits people's hearts and is very effective.

Xie Chunyan was obviously disturbed by this sudden news. She didn't even have time to think about whether the "niece" Aunt Xie mentioned really existed. Her mind was occupied by the thought of Feng Dongling's upcoming blind date.

When Feng Dongling saw Xie Chunyan, his originally relaxed mood became heavy. He hurriedly finished the soup in his bowl, put down his bowl and chopsticks, and said anxiously: "Aunt, sister-in-law, I have something urgent to do. I'll leave first. Please tell Brother Yi for me."

"Hey," Aunt Xie responded while quietly observing Xie Chunyan's reaction and thinking about her next step in her mind.

Feng Dongling put on his hat and walked out with big strides. When he passed by Xie Chunyan, he paused slightly, as if hesitating about something, but soon he quickened his pace and quickly surpassed Xie Chunyan.

Xie Chunyan looked at Feng Dongling's back as he walked away, feeling mixed emotions. Finally, she turned around abruptly and looked at Xu Xiufang, with a determined light flashing in her eyes.

Xu Xiufang pointed to her bicycle and said softly, "You still have time to catch up now."

"Yes, yes, yes," Aunt Xie agreed quickly, her eyes full of encouragement, "Go quickly, there's still time!"

Xie Chunyan seemed to have made up her mind. She walked quickly to the bicycle, rode it swiftly, and chased in the direction where Feng Dongling disappeared. Her figure lengthened in the setting sun, appearing both resolute and brave.

Seeing this, Xie's mother was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling. She drank two more bowls of soup in a row. The joy in her heart bloomed like a spring flower.

After drinking enough soup, she did not rush back to the house, but instead went to Sanbao and Xiaoyun, playing with the children and enjoying this rare time together.

As the sun sets, Feng Dongling returns home with Xie Chunyan. Their eyes wander over each other. The sweetness and shyness in their hearts are like those of young people falling in love for the first time, green and innocent.

They rode their bicycles at a speed so slow that it seemed as if they were racing with a snail, enjoying this rare tranquility and warmth.

Xu Xiufang saw Xie Chunyan and Feng Dongling returning from afar, and was pulled by Xie's mother to watch the show together. Her face was filled with a smile like a spring flower, and her enthusiasm and excitement were like the most loyal fan meeting her idol.

"Second brother's family, when do you think they can have their wedding?"

Xie's mother asked Xu Xiufang expectantly.

"Mom, why don't you just ask them directly?"

Xu Xiufang joked with a smile, a cunning gleam in her eyes.

"to make!"

When Xie's mother heard this, she immediately perked up. This was exactly the answer she was expecting.

Feng Dongling and Xie Chunyan approached the door and saw Xie's mother and Xu Xiufang standing there. Xie Chunyan's cheeks flushed. She stopped her bicycle and called softly, "Mom, sister-in-law!"

Xie's mother smiled, as warm as the spring sunshine. Since Xu Xiufang suggested asking directly, she stopped beating around the bush: "Are you two doing that, are you in love?"

As soon as these words were spoken, not only Xie Chunyan and Feng Dongling, but even the air around them seemed to freeze, filled with anticipation and curiosity.

This sudden and direct confession was like a swift straight ball that made Feng Dongling's heart tremble violently. The feelings that originally treated Xie Chunyan tenderly and as a sister in his heart were instantly disrupted.

Just as his thoughts were in a whirlwind, trying to find a respectful and appropriate response, Xie Chunyan had already clasped his hand without hesitation, with an unquestionable firmness and courage in her smile: "Yes, Mom, Lao Feng and I are trying to spend the future together."

This remark not only made a flash of surprise cross Xie's mother's face, but even Xu Xiufang and Feng Dongling himself, who were standing beside her, were stunned.

You know, Xie Chunyan went through two years of inner tug-of-war and struggle over accepting Feng Dongling.

However, few people know the story behind it.

Xie Chunyan's transformation was actually deeply influenced by Xu Xiufang.

In the past, she was deeply bound by traditional concepts and living environment. Like Xie's mother, even though she suffered a lot of grievances in her marriage, she never thought of escaping.

Until she met Xu Xiufang, a woman who dared to break the rules and pursue her own happiness. Her experience and words were like a light that illuminated the fog in Xie Chunyan's heart and made her feel like she was reborn.

Xu Xiufang is not only Xie Chunyan's friend, but also a beacon in her heart.

In Xie Chunyan's eyes, Xu Xiufang goes beyond the scope of an ordinary woman. She is a model of independence and courage to pursue happiness, and an inspiration to every woman who desires change.

Unconsciously, Xie Chunyan began to imitate Xu Xiufang. From her speech and behavior to her way of thinking, the shadow of Xu Xiufang gradually appeared in her.

Xie Chunyan absorbed all of Xu Xiufang's decisiveness and courage in dealing with her emotions.

At this moment, when she announced her relationship with Feng Dongling, the secret glance she gave Xu Xiufang and the approving nod given by Xu Xiufang made Xie Chunyan feel a warm current in her heart, and a sweet smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

Feng Dongling was standing by and saw all these changes.

His eyes wandered between Xu Xiufang and Xie Chunyan, and he couldn't help but wonder: Was he overthinking? Why did he always feel that when Xie Chunyan looked at Xu Xiufang, besides admiration, there was also a hint of shyness that was hard to detect?

The "object" she mentioned just now was undoubtedly referring to herself, not Xu Xiufang?

After confirming this, Feng Dongling tightened his hands clasped with Xie Chunyan. Although there was a hint of nervousness in his tone, his eyes were extremely firm: "Aunt, please rest assured, I will use all of me to love Chunyan and make her happy."

Upon hearing this, Xie's mother smiled brightly and said yes. She couldn't wait to start planning the wedding: "Then let's get ready quickly. Dongling, do you have any elders in your family who can help discuss it with us?"

Xie Chunyan was stunned by her mother's sudden and efficient decision. Her relationship with Feng Dongling had just stabilized, so how could they be getting married in the blink of an eye?

Just as she was about to speak to ease the sudden pace, Feng Dongling took the lead and answered sincerely: "I have several relatives, but I haven't contacted them for many years. I don't want to cause trouble for them... Don't worry, I will not omit the ceremony and etiquette of the wedding, and I guarantee that Chunyan will not suffer any grievances."

Everyone present, including Xie's mother, had heard of Feng Dongling's family background.

Although Xie Yi once warned his mother not to interfere in the affairs of Chunyan and Feng Dongling, as a mother, how could she easily suppress her concern for her daughter's happiness?

After some inquiries, I learned that Feng Dongling lost both his parents when he was young and was raised by his grandmother. Now his grandmother has also passed away and he is now single.
