As soon as he entered, he saw a room full of people looking at him. He stopped shyly and said to Aunt Yi, who looked over in dismay. “Auntie, look at me, the gold chain, and the car outside. All the money in my sack came according to your request. That, I …”
As he spoke, his eyes glued to Yi Zhilan, who looked over with red eyes, “I want you and uncle to agree to my marriage with Lan Lan.”
After that, Wei Mingyan suddenly felt that something wasn’t right, “why are you crying? What’s the matter? ”
There were a lot of people standing in the room, but no one spoke.
It’s not that nobody wanted to talk, it’s just that everyone was shocked and speechless.
Hun Zi, he drove a car back?
It occurred to them; when he left a month ago, he promised to bring back 2,000 yuan. They secretly did not believe it. But now, he even drove a car back! (translateindo.C0m did not give other site permission to PDF this)
Before, they also said that the Yi family was pitiful to have a daughter like that. But now, a golden son-in-law fell from the sky, right after they sympathized.
Finally, Uncle Yi reacted first. His stiff mouth opened and he asked in a hoarse voice, “Is the car yours?”
“Yes, isn’t Lan Lan going to school tomorrow? It isn’t convenient to go by train. I just bought a car and I can drive her directly to school and we could bring her luggage. I could have come back earlier; if I bought a bus fare, but I drove all the way back. Thankfully, I was able to catch up.”
As Wei Mingyan spoke, his eyes couldn’t help but fall on Yi Zhilan, who had not responded to everything just like everyone. Those pair of eyes obviously look so in love, the people in the room finally noticed.
“Hun Zi, you, you are rich?”
“Not to mention making a fortune. I got on a truck and sold goods everywhere. Then I made some money and went to buy some stocks. I was lucky and made a lot of money.”
After saying this, Mingyan asked again, “What’s wrong with all of you? Why is everyone here?”
He talked and acted as before, which made other people feel less like they were dreaming, and their heads cleared up enough to tell him.
“Too much! I’ll find them! “(translateindo.C0m does not post chapters any where else)
Seeing that Wei Mingyan said so, and was about to turn around and leave, the others stopped him at once. “It’s no use for you to go. They left old third’s place this afternoon and took the train. No one is there now.”
Wei Mingyan approached Uncle Yi and Aunt Yi and comforted them. “Uncle and Aunt, don’t worry, I have money. Lan Lan can go to college. You can also enjoy your lives, so let me and Lan Lan be filial to you.”
The two-old people have not recovered yet and didn’t understand how things have become like this.
Just now, they wept bitterly over the loss of Lan Lan’s tuition money. In the blink of an eye, Hun Zi became a big boss.
Not only both of them but the villagers also felt that the situation has changed too fast.
But anyway, this is a good thing!
Knowing that they would definitely discuss the wedding, the others spoke a few words and went out.
They just felt excited and amazed. It made them feel like they wanted to catch someone who didn’t see what happened and tell them about the scene just now.
There are no other recreational activities in the village. People usually gather together in twos and threes to gossip about the villages, so news travels very fast.
Seems like the whole village will know about Hun Zi returning in a car and wearing a gold necklace in less than one night.
(if your NOT reading at Translateindo, this chapter has been stolen from our site)
When everyone else left, Wei Mingyan took his two slender legs towards Yi Zhilan’s side and handed her a silver necklace from his pocket.
“Lan Lan, I bought it for you.”
He said, fearing that Yi Zhilan might misunderstand that he would not buy gold, he explained, “I don’t think those people who wear gold necklaces are good-looking at all. This white one I bought you, is a platinum necklace. It’s popular in the city these days. You would surely look good in them.”
Yi Zhilan still feels like she’s in a dream, she paused for a while before taking the necklace, “Mingyan …”
“I said I would make a good life for you!”
The girl looked at her lover smiling at her, he was a little childish and a little proud.
“You won’t suffer anymore.” With this, he picked up the sack and opened it for Yi Zhilan to see. “Look, all this money belongs to us.”
Looking at the money inside, Yi Zhilan looked dazed, “Why did you put it in a sack?”
“Aunt wanted it that way.”
The man said rightfully, “Aunt Chen told me. A gold chain, driving a car and a sack full of money.”
As he spoke, he looked blankly to one side. Looking at Aunt Yi; who had forgotten herself that she was crying, “isn’t that right, Auntie?”
Aunt Yi: “…” She just said it casually.( not reading at Translateindo? it’s been copied without permission)
Who knew, Hun Zi would actually do it!
At this point, there will be no doubt about their marriage.
There’s just a little disagreement about when to get married.
Wei Mingyan insisted that the wedding should be held early and that it should be held as early as tomorrow.
“Uncle, it’s not that I don’t want to make it into a big occasion. Looking at Lan Lan going to school, and I’m setting up a company in the city where she is going to school. A lot of things are waiting. Why don’t we do it this way… Lan Lan is not old enough to get married. Let’s just have the toast tomorrow. Even if it’s just once. Then, we’ll make a big wedding when Lan Lan is of age. What do you think?”
(the toast = serving tea to parents, and the sharing of the first nuptial wine.)
Uncle Yi did not know how to refuse for a while. If he could just still say that he would settle the matter first and discuss it slowly. But now, Lan Lan obviously wants to go to college with Wei Mingyan’s money. If she gets engaged first, he would not be able to say anything in the future.
“You’re in such a hurry, and our family is not prepared for anything. It wouldn’t look good if you get married like that.”
Wei Mingyan clapped his hands and promised, “Leave this matter to me. You and Aunt could go to rest first. I promise that tomorrow’s wedding will be a beautiful one and will be very pleasing.”
Uncle Yi and Aunt Yi looked back with every step. They went back to their room without worrying. In this small room, only Wei Mingyan and Yi Zhilan were left.
The two of them were originally lovers. As soon as the elders left, the atmosphere suddenly changed.
Looking at someone she hadn’t seen for a month, she felt something had changed in her lover. Yi Zhilan blushed and whispered, “Why are you in such a hurry? We still have a long way to go.”
“I want to marry you early and take you home.” Wei Mingyan; with a shallow smile on his face, said gently to the girl, “Let’s get married and go to City A together. Okay?”
City A is where Yi Zhilan is going to university.(we do not translate 4 other websites besides translateindo)
“Also, Lan Lan …” Wei Mingyan approached the girl and bowed his head and whispered. The magnetic voice sounded in her ear, “How do you feel these days?”
“Feeling?” Yi Zhilan did not quite understand and looked up at her lover. “Why are you asking that?”
“Last time at my place, I didn’t use ‘that’ …” Wei Mingyan prompted.
The girl suddenly opened her eyes wide, she couldn’t believe it. She covered her lower abdomen. “You mean?”
She was confused. Her hands gently touched, she didn’t dare to exert any strength.
Is there already a little life in this?
Counting the days, her period didn’t come this month.
Fear, panic, and bewilderment swept through Yi Zhilan completely.
“Yes, if it’s already there, we’ll get ready early.” Wei Mingyan nodded and quietly soothed, “Don’t worry, now that we have money, even if we really have children. We’ll be all right, too.”
Yi Zhilan was still very timid. For the first time, she took the initiative to hide in the arms of a man. Her voice was full of confusion. “But I have to go to school …”
In her heart, she had never thought of having children so early. There were so many things that happened this month that she had no idea and opportunity to think about it. Now, thinking that she might be pregnant, it made her heart heavy and scared.
“Yeah, you can go to school as long as you want. I heard that you can ask for leave. I have enough money to buy a house near the school. We’ll settle down well. When the child is born, you can continue to go to school and I’ll take care of our child.”
“Mingyan, I’m scared. Can we really raise a good child?”
After all, Yi Zhilan is still young. Thinking about the unpredictable future, she can’t help but be afraid.
“Don’t be afraid. I’m here. I’ll take aunt and uncle to the city. We don’t have any experience. They do.”(No, seriously.. why are you reading it here? please support translators at Translateindo.com)
Wei Mingyan embraced the girl and described the future to her softly in a gentle voice. “We will get married tomorrow, then drive to school. Then buy a house and some new things. If you are not pregnant, we will wait until you finish your education and have a child. If you are pregnant, we will buy a crib and small toys so that the child can grow up healthily. When he or she is a little older, you will teach our child to learn and be a college student like it’s mother, ok?”
Listening to her lovers’ words, Yi Zhilan’s anxiety gradually calmed down.
Yes, she does not need to be afraid because she has Wei Mingyan. They can handle it well.
After removing the fear, Yi Zhilan began to look forward to this child; who she–herself didn’t know whether it really existed or not.
This is, her and Mingyan’s child.
They love each other so much. If they really have a child, they will be very happy, right?
Wei Mingyan drove to the town.
Money can make the devil grind: as long as enough money is given, no matter how urgent the wedding is, it can be done properly.
(有钱能使鬼推磨 /yǒu qián néng shǐ guǐ tuī mò = If you have money, you can make the devil push the millstone for you. Anything would work out if you paid the right price.)(want to copy to read offline? try asking nicely at Translateindo.com… thanks )
Uncle Yi’s said that there weren’t enough tables and chairs, but it wouldn’t be a problem. He directly went to buy new ones and gave them money, and they were all shipped over.
When dawn started to light up, the neighbor next to Yi’s house came out to throw away the toilet water. When she passed by their yard, she was surprised to find that there was a red rope tied to it. The yard was full of tables and chairs. There was also a strange middle-aged woman burning fire under a big pot for cooking.
She rubbed her eyes, almost thinking she had not woken up yet.
While she was doubting, Uncle Yi, dressed in a new suit, walked out with a smile. Looking at this and that, the smile on his face never went down.
Aunt Yi came out behind him, wearing a new dress. The neighbor stared at her clothes. The last time the neighbor went to the city to see her son, he showed her around the mall, and there was exactly the same dress.
If she remembered correctly, this dress costs more than one hundred yuan.
More than a hundred yuan! Her son’s salary for a month and a half!
And the big gold necklace around her neck, is that real?
Oh my mother! How much does it cost?(this is a translateindo.com translation)
The neighbor hurriedly put down the toilet bucket and greeted her, “Third Sister, is there a happy event for your family?”
Aunt Yi was given a thick necklace by Wei Mingyan last night. She tossed and turned all night. She was thinking about her runaway daughter and her grown-up niece. When it was light, she couldn’t wait to get up when she heard the rooster crowing. As a result, she came out and saw that the yard had changed dramatically in just one night.
She was confused when she saw her neighbor coming to ask her, and she squeezed out a smile in reflex, “Yes, my Lan Lan is going to marry Hun … Mingyan.”
“Why are you in such a hurry? Didn’t he arrive just last night?” The neighbor is really stunned.
In general, when they get married in the village, don’t they all have to find a matchmaker first? After the two families have met, they decide, and then choose a good day?
Thinking about it, her eyes are a little weird, is there anything wrong?
Aunt Yi came into contact with her eyes and said with a sharp smile on her serene face, “It’s just that, the child said he had built a company in the city where Lan Lan goes to school. A lot of things are waiting for him to go back and work on. And, isn’t Lan Lan going to school soon? He just can’t wait to marry his wife, so he had to do it quickly.”
She spared no effort to introduce the topic; about Wei Mingyan loving Yi Zhilan too much. “Her uncle and I both said that there was no need to worry. The child wouldn’t listen. He drove his car to buy this and that at night. He said that although it was done in a hurry, it was definitely not worse than other people in the village.”
“You look at my clothes, it’s what he drove to buy last night. Her uncle also has one, such a good suit. Tell me, when have we; farmers, ever had anything so good to wear? And the gold necklace, which is so thick and worth a lot of money, why is he so kind to us? Isn’t it because of Lan Lan!?”
“Seeing that he really cares about our Lan Lan, my anxious heart feels calmer now.”( not reading at Translateindo? it’s been copied without permission)
The eyes of the neighbors across the street are falling out in envy.
She didn’t expect this son-in-law to become so good after he changed his ways. She looked at Aunt Yi’s big gold necklace around her neck and her new clothes. She only wished that this son-in-law was her own.
She was envious, and couldn’t think about the quick marriage anymore. When the villagers woke up one after another, or passed by, or heard that Hun Zi drove back in a car and came to inquire about the news; all of them heard and spread the story.
The general content is how much Hun Zi likes Yi Zhilan and how much he respects her aunt and uncle. It focuses on the new clothes worth more than 100 yuan and the big gold necklace, and also the car outside.
Until noon, the spittle was flying and the mouth was dry, finally, they took a break for breath.
(the spittle was flying and the mouth was dry = everyone was talking about it non-stop, left and right.)
The neighbor did not do anything else, but because of the amazed and envious eyes of the villagers, she felt as if the envy had become her own.
She was just about to leave when Aunt Yi grabbed her. “Where are you going? My house will have wine this afternoon, let’s eat it at my house.”
“I just went to see my Lan Lan’s bride clothes, which they brought back from town. Lan Lan looks good in it.”
The grief of her daughter leaving home was suppressed by Aunt Yi today, and she was very happy for her niece.
The two were walking towards the house when a few children came running playfully, pulling Aunt Yi’s clothes and asking, “Third Aunt! Third Aunt. Where is the big car? My mother said you have a big car at your house!”
Aunt Yi smiled lovingly and patted one of the children on the head, and said with a warm voice: “The car is at your big-brother’s house. He will pick up sister Lan Lan in his car.”
“Then let’s look in his house!”
When the children left, Aunt Yi smiled at her neighbor, “Mingyan said that he would drive home and pick up Lan Lan in a car. What kind of car would drive such a short distance?”
Even with a complaint on her lips, you can still see how happy Aunt Yi is when she smiles from ear to ear.
This is the first time someone from their village drove a car to pick up the bride. No, not only in the village, but even the brides in town don’t get the same treatment.
Indeed, the neighbor’s eyes were more envious. “Lan Lan is really lucky. She is a college student and Mingyan loves her so much. Her life certainly is wonderful.”(if your NOT reading at Translateindo, this chapter has been stolen from our site)
“Who said so? Lan Lan suffered a lot when she was a child, and she was able to get through it.”
“Lan Lan is so filial and Mingyan loves her so much. In the future, you and your husband will also enjoy happiness!”
Uncle Yi was checking the tables and chairs one by one to see if there was anything wrong with them. He saw two women walking into the room with smiles. His dark face, which always had locked eyebrows, also showed a smile. The wrinkles seemed to spread out.
Lan Lan is doing well. Even if he dies, he will still have the face to see his second brother in the afterlife.
As the Yi family prepared, the groom; Wei Mingyan, had already knocked on the door of the Chen family.
“What?” Old Chen stopped smoking his cigarette. “You want me to be your elder?”
Being the elder of the bride and groom, had to be someone close to a certain extent, or they would never be worthy of it.
“Yes, Uncle, as you know, there is no one in my family. When the time comes, we can’t just worship Lan Lan’s aunt and uncle only.”
Wei Mingyan smiled and took out the prepared new clothes. “You and Aunt watched me grow up. If it weren’t for you, I would have starved to death. You should be my elder.”
“This is a new dress. Please come with Aunt this time.”
Old Chen Tou hesitated to accept, “but… I… this, I…”
Generally, elders are directly related or respected. When he heard the news last night, he was still wondering if Wei Mingyan would invite the nine elder uncles with the highest seniority in the village. He did not expect that the kid would come to find him.
“Uncle, I really regard you as my elder and propose a toast of tea. After that, you will be my own uncle. In the future, I wouldn’t have to come home to an empty plate to eat.”
(敬酒茶喝了/ Jìngjiǔ chá hēle= a toast of tea; a traditional way of serving tea respectfully. In this case, Mingyan is offering tea as a child, and Uncle Chen would accept as an elder, which means he accepts Mingyan into the family. Kind of like an informal adoption.)
The last sentence made Old Chen’s heart soft. He gritted his teeth and agreed, “Yes! I will be your elder, drink a toast of tea! ”
Old Chen Tou and Aunt Chen solemnly put on new clothes together and washed their faces well. Aunt Chen also took out her silver bracelet from the bottom of the drawer and put it on her hand. The two-people dressed neatly, like going to war, and sat in Wei Mingyan’s car.
The outside of Yi’s home has long been crowded with people, waiting to pay the gift money.(translateindo.C0m does not post chapters any where else)
This is also an unwritten rule in the village. Anyone who wants to come to a banquet for a happy event must bring some money or things. The host family will remember who brought what and will usually send it back to the family according to this specification.
Originally, the wedding was to be held at the groom’s home, but Wei Mingyan said that his house was small and shabby. Anyway, there was no one in his house, so he decided to hold it at Yi’s family home.
Holding a wedding event in the woman’s house represents how much the man cares for her in the village. In addition, Wei Mingyan gave Uncle Yi and Aunt Yi new clothes, a big gold chain, and a car that was rare in this area. More than half of the villagers came.
Everyone was curious and wanted to see this ‘Hun Zi’ who made a fortune after only one month out of the house. No, they should call him Wei Mingyan now.
“Here comes the groom.”
As soon as he entered, he saw a room full of people looking at him. He stopped shyly and said to Aunt Yi, who looked over in dismay. “Auntie, look at me, the gold chain, and the car outside. All the money in my sack came according to your request. That, I …”
As he spoke, his eyes glued to Yi Zhilan, who looked over with red eyes, “I want you and uncle to agree to my marriage with Lan Lan.”
After that, Wei Mingyan suddenly felt that something wasn’t right, “why are you crying? What’s the matter? ”
There were a lot of people standing in the room, but no one spoke.
It’s not that nobody wanted to talk, it’s just that everyone was shocked and speechless.
Hun Zi, he drove a car back?
It occurred to them; when he left a month ago, he promised to bring back 2,000 yuan. They secretly did not believe it. But now, he even drove a car back! (translateindo.C0m did not give other site permission to PDF this)
Before, they also said that the Yi family was pitiful to have a daughter like that. But now, a golden son-in-law fell from the sky, right after they sympathized.

“Hun Zi, you, you are rich?”
“Not to mention making a fortune. I got on a truck and sold goods everywhere. Then I made some money and went to buy some stocks. I was lucky and made a lot of money.”
After saying this, Mingyan asked again, “What’s wrong with all of you? Why is everyone here?”
He talked and acted as before, which made other people feel less like they were dreaming, and their heads cleared up enough to tell him.
“Too much! I’ll find them! “(translateindo.C0m does not post chapters any where else)
Seeing that Wei Mingyan said so, and was about to turn around and leave, the others stopped him at once. “It’s no use for you to go. They left old third’s place this afternoon and took the train. No one is there now.”
Wei Mingyan approached Uncle Yi and Aunt Yi and comforted them. “Uncle and Aunt, don’t worry, I have money. Lan Lan can go to college. You can also enjoy your lives, so let me and Lan Lan be filial to you.”

“Also, Lan Lan …” Wei Mingyan approached the girl and bowed his head and whispered. The magnetic voice sounded in her ear, “How do you feel these days?”
“Feeling?” Yi Zhilan did not quite understand and looked up at her lover. “Why are you asking that?”

“Mingyan, I’m scared. Can we really raise a good child?”
After all, Yi Zhilan is still young. Thinking about the unpredictable future, she can’t help but be afraid.

A lot of things are waiting for him to go back and work on. And, isn’t Lan Lan going to school soon? He just can’t wait to marry his wife, so he had to do it quickly.”
She spared no effort to introduce the topic; about Wei Mingyan loving Yi Zhilan too much. “Her uncle and I both said that there was no need to worry. The child wouldn’t listen. He drove his car to buy this and that at night. He said that although it was done in a hurry, it was definitely not worse than other people in the village.”
“You look at my clothes, it’s what he drove to buy last night. Her uncle also has one, such a good suit. Tell me, when have we; farmers, ever had anything so good to wear? And the gold necklace, which is so thick and worth a lot of money, why is he so kind to us? Isn’t it because of Lan Lan!?”
“Seeing that he really cares about our Lan Lan, my anxious heart feels calmer now.”( not reading at Translateindo? it’s been copied without permission)
The eyes of the neighbors across the street are falling out in envy.
She didn’t expect this son-in-law to become so good after he changed his ways. She looked at Aunt Yi’s big gold necklace around her neck and her new clothes. She only wished that this son-in-law was her own.
She was envious, and couldn’t think about the quick marriage anymore. When the villagers woke up one after another, or passed by, or heard that Hun Zi drove back in a car and came to inquire about the news; all of them heard and spread the story.
The general content is how much Hun Zi likes Yi Zhilan and how much he respects her aunt and uncle. It focuses on the new clothes worth more than 100 yuan and the big gold necklace, and also the car outside.
Until noon, the spittle was flying and the mouth was dry, finally, they took a break for breath.
(the spittle was flying and the mouth was dry = everyone was talking about it non-stop, left and right.)
The neighbor did not do anything else, but because of the amazed and envious eyes of the villagers, she felt as if the envy had become her own.
She was just about to leave when Aunt Yi grabbed her. “Where are you going? My house will have wine this afternoon, let’s eat it at my house.”
“I just went to see my Lan Lan’s bride clothes, which they brought back from town. Lan Lan looks good in it.”
The grief of her daughter leaving home was suppressed by Aunt Yi today, and she was very happy for her niece.
The two were walking towards the house when a few children came running playfully, pulling Aunt Yi’s clothes and asking, “Third Aunt! Third Aunt. Where is the big car? My mother said you have a big car at your house!”
Aunt Yi smiled lovingly and patted one of the children on the head, and said with a warm voice: “The car is at your big-brother’s house. He will pick up sister Lan Lan in his car.”
“Then let’s look in his house!”
When the children left, Aunt Yi smiled at her neighbor, “Mingyan said that he would drive home and pick up Lan Lan in a car. What kind of car would drive such a short distance?”
Even with a complaint on her lips, you can still see how happy Aunt Yi is when she smiles from ear to ear.
This is the first time someone from their village drove a car to pick up the bride. No, not only in the village, but even the brides in town don’t get the same treatment.
Indeed, the neighbor’s eyes were more envious. “Lan Lan is really lucky. She is a college student and Mingyan loves her so much. Her life certainly is wonderful.”(if your NOT reading at Translateindo, this chapter has been stolen from our site)
“Who said so? Lan Lan suffered a lot when she was a child, and she was able to get through it.”
“Lan Lan is so filial and Mingyan loves her so much. In the future, you and your husband will also enjoy happiness!”
Uncle Yi was checking the tables and chairs one by one to see if there was anything wrong with them. He saw two women walking into the room with smiles. His dark face, which always had locked eyebrows, also showed a smile. The wrinkles seemed to spread out.
Lan Lan is doing well. Even if he dies, he will still have the face to see his second brother in the afterlife.
As the Yi family prepared, the groom; Wei Mingyan, had already knocked on the door of the Chen family.
“What?” Old Chen stopped smoking his cigarette. “You want me to be your elder?”
Being the elder of the bride and groom, had to be someone close to a certain extent, or they would never be worthy of it.
“Yes, Uncle, as you know, there is no one in my family. When the time comes, we can’t just worship Lan Lan’s aunt and uncle only.”
Wei Mingyan smiled and took out the prepared new clothes. “You and Aunt watched me grow up. If it weren’t for you, I would have starved to death. You should be my elder.”
“This is a new dress. Please come with Aunt this time.”
Old Chen Tou hesitated to accept, “but… I… this, I…”
Generally, elders are directly related or respected. When he heard the news last night, he was still wondering if Wei Mingyan would invite the nine elder uncles with the highest seniority in the village. He did not expect that the kid would come to find him.
“Uncle, I really regard you as my elder and propose a toast of tea. After that, you will be my own uncle. In the future, I wouldn’t have to come home to an empty plate to eat.”
(敬酒茶喝了/ Jìngjiǔ chá hēle= a toast of tea; a traditional way of serving tea respectfully. In this case, Mingyan is offering tea as a child, and Uncle Chen would accept as an elder, which means he accepts Mingyan into the family. Kind of like an informal adoption.)
The last sentence made Old Chen’s heart soft. He gritted his teeth and agreed, “Yes! I will be your elder, drink a toast of tea! ”
Old Chen Tou and Aunt Chen solemnly put on new clothes together and washed their faces well. Aunt Chen also took out her silver bracelet from the bottom of the drawer and put it on her hand. The two-people dressed neatly, like going to war, and sat in Wei Mingyan’s car.
The outside of Yi’s home has long been crowded with people, waiting to pay the gift money.(translateindo.C0m does not post chapters any where else)
This is also an unwritten rule in the village. Anyone who wants to come to a banquet for a happy event must bring some money or things. The host family will remember who brought what and will usually send it back to the family according to this specification.
Originally, the wedding was to be held at the groom’s home, but Wei Mingyan said that his house was small and shabby. Anyway, there was no one in his house, so he decided to hold it at Yi’s family home.
Holding a wedding event in the woman’s house represents how much the man cares for her in the village. In addition, Wei Mingyan gave Uncle Yi and Aunt Yi new clothes, a big gold chain, and a car that was rare in this area. More than half of the villagers came.
Everyone was curious and wanted to see this ‘Hun Zi’ who made a fortune after only one month out of the house. No, they should call him Wei Mingyan now.
“Here comes the groom.”
