Contract Marriage: Billionaire and His Deaf Wife Chapter 1072: Three Months Have Passed (9)

Zhao ngjin stood in the corner of the room brewing tea, occasionally glancing over.

"Gu Nuan, it’s been a few years since we last t, hasn’t it? You’ve gained quite a bit of weight." The smile on Gu Zhimin’s face naturally seed a bit stiff.

After all, it’s been so many years since the sisters t.

Gu Nuan thought about it, realizing that their etings had been limited to going back to their grandparents’ house for Chinese New Year. Later, she went to school in the city, and Gu Zhimin worked in the city, leaving no ti to return ho, seeing each other once every few years beca the norm.

Looking at this cousin, who was dressed neatly and didn’t forget to bring a branded bag, Gu Nuan knew that this cousin probably didn’t want to say she was underestimated. She said, "It’s been a long ti indeed. I heard you got married. I, as the younger sister, should’ve been the one to drink your wedding wine first."

Talking about the wedding wine, Gu Zhimin clearly found a sense of superiority.

When she got married, it was in a city hotel, with a total of twenty wedding tables, quite large, and they received hundreds of thousands in wedding gifts, mainly from her husband’s friends.

Overall, she completed one of the most important rituals in life, grand enough, living up to her lifeti.

On the other hand, she heard that Gu Nuan still had unresolved relations with the Xiao Family, the most direct evidence being that even now the Xiao Family hasn’t helped Gu Nuan organize a wedding banquet.

In her excitent, Gu Zhimin forgot that her cousin hadn’t spoken and sat down herself.

Gu Nuan pretended not to see it. After all, they’re family, no need to be overly polite.

Zhao ngjin poured the flower tea into the cup and had the servant serve it to the guests.

Gu Zhimin stated her purpose: "It’s like this. My mom called , saying that our grandparents want everyone to co ho for this New Year. Daughters married far away can skip the reunion dinner on New Year’s Eve but must return on the evening of New Year’s Day."

Gu Nuan hadn’t received any calls from her parents regarding this.

It’s definitely because Gu Dad and Gu Mom thought that their daughter was heavily pregnant and dared not ask her to travel long distances with a big belly.

Gu Zhimin seed to guess the situation after seeing Gu Nuan’s current condition upon entering.

The timing of the marriages was similar, Gu Nuan was almost due, while she had no progress.

Gu Nuan said, "How about this, I’ve prepared New Year’s goods for the family, everyone has so. You go tell Grandpa and Grandma first."

Hearing this, Gu Zhimin chuckled, "Grandpa and Grandma have changed, saying that money doesn’t matter, it’s about people."

Is it possible that Gu Grandpa and Gu Grandma have finally co around?

Gu Nuan said, "Since Grandpa and Grandma ntioned it, they should understand my situation and wouldn’t ask to return."

Gu Zhimin was almost at a loss for words confronted with this.

Eventually, the real reason was reluctantly revealed. Gu Zhimin sighed, "Honestly, I think going back or not doesn’t matter, but Grandpa and Grandma are anxious."

"What are they anxious about?"

"The land back ho is reportedly going to be relocated. The demolition compensation is based on the headcount. My household registration was moved to the city when I got married. Grandpa and Grandma, along with my parents, are thinking of moving it back quickly while no one notices."

"Does your husband agree?"

"He, initially didn’t care much—"

Which ans, perhaps after hearing so news, his feelings changed, and disagreent wasn’t an option.

"To be honest, I heard a big corporation is coming to develop our hotown. Several villages’ lands are to be requisitioned. Even a high-speed rail station is said to be built there. By the way—" Gu Zhimin suddenly lowered her voice, scanning Gu Nuan’s face with mystery, "I heard rumors started three months ago; you didn’t know? Isn’t your husband’s family in real estate?"

"My husband’s family deals in comrcial real estate, not residential. After the high-speed rail station is built there, it’s likely residential properties will be developed first. Once there’s enough population, comrcial complexes may consider moving in, usually that’s how it works."

Gu Zhimin blinked, not expecting her to respond so calmly and professionally.

It seems Gu Nuan truly wasn’t concerned about the developnt of their hotown.

"Is there anything else?" Gu Nuan asked.

Gu Zhimin, a bit deflated, said, "My mom said she went to your house to discuss the household registration matter, but your dad was at work, and your neighbor said even your mom isn’t around much these days, often not ho or only ho every two or three days."

Both her parents had gone to the mountains to farm. They loved the orchard gifted by the son-in-law, Dabai.

Gu Nuan lowered her eyebrows slightly.

Over there, Uncle Qi had already received related news. Attempts to reach out to Gu Nuan for communication had been made.

According to Uncle Qi, Gu Dad and Gu Mom couldn’t possibly be unaware of these matters. Gu Mom often went to the mountains, just to prevent situations like this, where if the land were bought by others for developnt, and the orchard needed relocation, it would be necessary to clear it out.

Coincidentally, farming season had just passed, and Gu Mom was organizing to sell the inventory.

It was only because Gu Mom had promised the son-in-law, Dabai, to manage the estate well and use the money for charity.

"Gu Nuan?" Gu Zhimin, seeing her not speaking, asked with a bit of curiosity.

Gu Nuan said, "That piece of land isn’t suitable for building houses."
