Chapter 420: Gu Jianfa Throws a Ruckus at the Gu Household

After completing the procedures, Wu An paid the money and also bought commercial insurance.

It was mainly third‑party liability insurance, directly raising the coverage level to the highest.

He and Gu Anran both obtained their driver's licenses through back‑door channels; to be frank, their skills were certainly lacking.

If an accident were to happen, having insurance would allow a bit more peace of mind.

Everything was arranged, and they set a date to pick up the car a week later.

The sales guide delivered it to the Gate.

Having walked a bit farther, Gu Anran couldn't help but grab Wu An's hand, letting out a small cheer and saying, "You buy a car the same way you buy groceries."

Wu An replied, "The Ambergris money is essentially a windfall."

"It's almost like winning the lottery."

"If you don't spend it quickly, trouble will follow endlessly."

Gu Anran was startled, "Is that really a saying?"

Wu An nodded gravely.

Gu Anran said nothing more.

Wu An smiled.

A young lady is just perfect, so easy to fool.

Gu Anran said with some anticipation, "When we get the car, take me for a spin."

Wu An agreed in one breath.

Wanting a spin isn't hard at all.

No need to actually get the car.

The hotel window was opened, and the wind blew strongly.

After leaving Qiche Cheng, the two found a Xiaofanggan, ordered a few dishes, and ate.

Full and satisfied, they hailed a car back to the hotel.

They originally planned to check out and go home directly, but dawdling, they inadvertently paid for an extra hourly room.

It was Gu Anran who paid.

Because of the delay, the two returned to town as night was falling; they dared not linger any longer and hurried home.

On the Road, Wu An contacted Lao Fu Tou and Mei Wu.

He called them to Lao Wu.

He sent Gu Anran home first.

Just after entering Gu Anran's Village, before reaching the doorstep, they heard shouting from the Courtyard.

When Gu Anran heard it, he told Wu An to stop the car immediately.

Wu An stopped and asked, "What's up?"

Gu Anran said, "Gu Jianfa is at home."

Wu An nodded, "Then I'll go with you to take a look."

Gu Anran replied, "You don't need to come along."

"You go ahead."

"So as not to spoil the good mood."

Wu An said, "Since you say that, I can't leave any more."

Gu Anran adjusted his shirt collar and said, "Alright."

"You don't need to worry."

"Look, there are so many people at the Gate watching the fun; if you go over, you'll only make it more lively."

Gu Anran waved his hand, "Hurry and go."

After saying that.

He then walked over.

…

In the Courtyard.

Gu Jianfa was rolling around wildly.

An old lady sat beside him, expressionless, picking vegetables.

Gu Jianfa had been released yesterday.

He only returned home this morning.

When he got inside, a neighbor lady said Gu Anran and the neighboring village's Wu An were engaged; he felt the sky had collapsed.

Before he was arrested, he had taken a lot of bribes.

He claimed it was to introduce Gu Anran to those people.

Gu Anran suddenly got engaged; how could he still be introducing her?

The money‑tree now had an owner; how could he still make money!

"Lao Dongxi, you've killed me!"

"While I was being arrested, you just sent Gu Anran away like that?"

"What about the wedding gift money?"

"What about the hardware money?"

"Quickly take it out for me to see; don't lie to me, I've already inquired everything!"

"Lao Dongxi…"

Upon entering the house, he started arguing with the old lady.

The old lady ignored him.

Let him make a fuss.

So embarrassing.

Because of Gu Jianfa, there are many more embarrassing incidents.

Lots of lice don't bite people.

At the gate.

Villagers weren't just watching the spectacle; they were also gossiping.

Most of them were cursing Gu Jianfa.

Everyone in the village knows what kind of person Gu Jianfa is; they sympathize with the old lady and Gu Anran.

"What a sin!"

"Poor old lady and Anran girl."

"Anran girl getting married counts as soon escaping the sea of suffering."

"Oh dear..."

Gu Anran arrived.

Everyone gathered around her to talk.

Gu Anran nodded, entered the courtyard, then closed the door.

The villagers didn't leave.

They leaned on the wall to watch the spectacle.

Sympathy aside, watching less of the spectacle is a loss.

The men in the household go out to work hard; when they return home at night, they can still use this matter as dinner conversation.

Gu Jianfa saw Gu Anran return and shouted: "You shameless girl, you even know to come home!"

"Just dating would have been fine, but you got engaged so quickly; after you marry over there, what will happen to your grandmother?"

"You're unfilial!"

"Don't think that getting engaged while I'm away makes everything all right!"

"Where's the betrothal gift? Without 300,000, this marriage can't happen!"

"You demean yourself; as your uncle, I must raise your worth so the groom's side won't look down on you!"

"Uncle is doing this for your own good."

Gu Jianfa kept chattering on, Gu Anran said nothing, first helped the old lady back to the room.

After comforting the old lady with a few words, she came out of the room holding her phone and said: "Gu Jianfa, I've already recorded everything you just said."

"That's right, I'm engaged!"

"My fiancé has a father and an older brother; there are three big men in his family, he goes out to sea to fish, and there are several helpers on the boat!"

"I warn you."

"If you keep causing trouble, I'll call him over to deal with you!"

Gu Anran had Wu An leave, not only because she didn't want this petty family matter to affect Wu An, but also because only with Wu An absent could she borrow the tiger's skin to raise her flag.

Gu Jianfa, angry, raised his hand pointing at her: "Rebellious, rebellious against heaven!"

"You still dare to threaten me?"

"Believe it or not..."

Gu Anran smiled: "If you touch my finger even a little, my fiancé will break your hand."

Gu Jianfa's arm trembled: "You... he... he dares!"

"As if there's no one left with the surname Gu!"

"Gu Anran, stop trying to scare me!"

Gu Anran calmly said: "My fiancé is no outsider; if you bully me, he'll hit you."

"Even if Gu San Aye were here, he could only watch."

"Besides, I'm really not threatening you."

"The Gu family is your backing, and my husband's family is also my backing!"

These words rang out loudly.

These words weren't just for Gu Jianfa; they were also for the Gu relatives listening.

Gu Jianfa was dazed.

Gu Anran gave a cold face and scolded: "Hurry up and leave."

"This house was built by my parents; there's no place for you, and you're not welcome."

"If you refuse to leave, the village can't control you, Gu San Aye can't control you, but my fiancé can."

Gu Jianfa muttered curses.

Gu Anran: "I advise you to shut up."

"My fiancé knows, and he won't let you off."

Gu Jianfa swallowed his saliva.

He threw down a harsh line: "Gu Anran, fine, fine, fine, you've found a backing, right?"

"Let's wait and see."

"You wait..."

Having said that, he turned and walked away, and at the gate he kicked the big iron door hard.

The villagers outside watching the commotion all gave Gu Anran a strange look.

This girl is not to be messed with.

Gu Jianfa's behavior counts as eating an absolute household; he has the status of Gu Anran's uncle, plus the indulgence of the Gu family, outsiders really can't say much.

But now, it's different.

Gu Anran's words were very straightforward; she has a backer now!

But, is that backer reliable?

Everyone was discussing heatedly.

Inside the house.

The old lady wiped her tears, waited for Gu Anran to come in, squeezed out a smile: "Anran, good, good, good, well done."
