Chapter 502 Engagement
Back to the Sixties: Farm, Get Wealthy & Raise the Cubs
But now that she was married, she must settle down even when she doesnât want to. After all she was entering the guyâs household. Otherwise it would be harming people.
Lin Qing He gave Eldest Sister-in-law a call. She didnât even ask about Zhou Liu Ni. Just talked about Wang Yuan and Zhou Er Ni.
"Her father and I have no objection. It depends on Wang Yuanâs side to chose a day." Eldest Sister-in-law grinned.
If they werenât satisfied with a son-in-law like Wang Yuan, then what can satisfy them?
This time, Wang Yuanâs performance had eased Eldest Sister-in-lawâs mind. It had let her know that not all son-in-laws from the capital looked down on the countryside like that nephew-in-law.
In fact, Eldest Sister-in-law didnât think about what kind of accommodation to arrange for Wang Yuan at home.
The room was new and bright. The quilts and bedding were all brand new. In order to welcome him, even the bowls, chopsticks and enamel cups were all replaced with new ones.
She had also asked Zhou Xia to help out and make a new table. None of these can make one feel disgusted.
It was the rural toilet that city folk feared the most. That was why Eldest Brother cleaned it once a day. Using soil to cover it would mostly solve it.
Eldest Sister-in-law creatively made something good to eat every day. Beside three meals a day, there were also various snacks. Eldest Sister had pulled out all her tricks up her sleeve.
s
She didnât have this patience when coaxing her son.
Have to say that this hard work made Wang Yuan have a particularly good impression of this mother-in-lawâs home.
This time, not only did Zhou Er Ni come back plumper, Wang Yuan as well. After going back for more than 20 days, he gained almost five jins.
It can be seen how good the food was.
And Eldest Sister-in-law was overjoyed to be able to nourish Wang Yuan, a golden and precious son-in-law from the capital, plumper. On top of that, it wasnât hard for Wang Yuan to make some in merry mood when he wanted to.
Didnât he get on Father Zhou and Mother Zhouâs good side? They was almost treated him as their grandson.
So one can imagine how happy Eldest Sister-in-law Zhou was after he visited.
Lin Qing He can sense the joy Eldest Sister-in-law exuded over the phone. Then they merrily chatted some more before hanging up.
From the start to the end, Zhou Liu Ni was never brought up.
Wang Yuan came over to Father Zhou and Mother Zhou with three auspicious days. This was what his mother-in-law said. Find the old couple for the date selection.
When the time comes, let them know when to come over for the wedding banquet.
Father Zhou and Mother Zhou saw that it was for this, so they were certainly ecstatic.
The three auspicious days were split between March, April, and May.
Father Zhou and Mother Zhouâs thoughts were to set it after the autumn harvest. Out of the whole year in the countryside, one can only have free time after the autumn harvest.
However, Wang Yuan was obviously reluctant to wait that long and these dates were chosen.
He fancied his wife. Although his mother-in-lawâs family was from the countryside, they were reasonable. In future, they would go back and visit occasionally when they found time. The other issues were basically no problems.
He definitely wanted to marry her back sooner. This way, he could hug his wife to bed earlier, right?
Father Zhou and Mother Zhou called the village. Hearing the time was so rushed, Eldest Sister-in-law immediately laughed.
Wang Yuan had often told her that he wanted to get married earlier.
So Eldest Sister-in-law and Eldest Brother discussed and chose April. It wonât appear to be so anxious, but it wasnât too push back either. They also took into consideration of son-in-lawâs anxious to marry their daughter back.
"Marrying in April. This is too soon." Lin Qing He remarked after learning about it.
Wang Yuan was present. He quickly said, "Itâs not too early. Itâs a long time until April."
"What I mean is to hold it after the autumn harvest. Only then, itâll be idle. Your father-in-law and mother-in-law can come and stay for a few more days. I didnât expect the date to be so close." Lin Qing He explained.
"Thatâs because my mother-in-law is looking out for me. She knows how much I want to marry." Wang Yuan grinned.
Wang Yuan and Zhou Er Niâs wedding date was set. In April this year. Now they were considered engaged.
Lin Qing He found a time to talk to Zhou Er Ni about work.
Her intention was to ask Zhou Er Ni, when she gets married, would she go to take a position in Wang Yuanâs factory.
Zhou Er Ni shook her head: "Iâm fine here. I donât plan to go to his factory."
Wang Yuan wanted her to come over and mentioned it to her. But Zhou Er Ni really didnât want to. Of course, it was okay to go there occasionally. But in terms of work, she preferred to be at her fourth auntâs clothing store.
Looking at her attitude, Lin Qing He didnât comment. She just said, "When you get married in the future and you are pregnant, you have to tell me earlier, alright?"
Zhou Er Ni blushed and responded, "Fourth Aunt, itâs still early."
"What early? Itâs only a few months away. Itâll pass in a blink of an eye." Lin Qing He said.
Sheâll marry in April, which was really close. Since Father Zhou and Mother Zhou had discussed it with Eldest Brother and Eldest Sister-in-law, there was nothing to say.
When Xu Sheng Mei came to see her grandma, she learned about Zhou Er Niâs engagement with big boss like Wang Yuan and that it was in April of this year.
Her heart felt stifled then.
How can she not feel uncomfortable. There was no way to compare. She tried her best to find a marriage like Zhao Family and had even cause a shameful stir. While Zhou Er Ni silently obtained such a good marriage.
Look at Wang Yuanâs attitude towards her, then look at Zhao Junâs attitude towards her. How ambitious was Wang Yuan? While Zhao Jun?
Putting it nicely, he can eat without working. And in more unpleasant way, he was a person who have nothing to do other than eating as he waits for death.
Xu Sheng Mei suffocated from anger. After seeing her grandma, she didnât even come to the dumpling shop. Just went straight back. She didnât return to Zhaoâs house either. She gone over to the clothing shop she partnered up with Zhang Mei Lian.
When she saw her brother was there, she came in.
Zhang Mei Lian kept a little distance from Xu Sheng Qiang.
"Sheng Mei, how come youâre free to come over?" Zhang Mei Lian asked.
"Iâm just here to take a look. Qiang Zi, why are you here?" Xu Sheng Mei asked.
"Qiang Zi wants to go set up a stall. So he came over to get the clothes." Zhang Mei Lian answered.
Xu Sheng Mei didnât think too much. She was a little relieved to see her brother grow up so much and said, "Alright then. Take and go to hawking." She didnât want her brother to have so much contact with Zhang Mei Lian.
"I know. Sister, go back first." Xu Sheng Qiang urged.
s
Xu Sheng Mei has been out for some time. It was time to go back, otherwise her mother-in-law will nag again.
As soon as she left, Xu Sheng Qiang pulled Zhang Mei Lian into his embrace again: "Why are you pushing me away as soon as my sister come? You are already my woman."
"Your sister hasnât accepted me yet." Zhang Mei Lian said.
"What does it matter? Once you are pregnant, how can she not agree?" Xu Sheng Qiang responded. He planned to turn the raw rice into mature rice: "But itâs been so long, why arenât you pregnant yet?"
