Chapter 546 Engagement

On the first day Yang Dongxu came back, his grandparents and uncle's family came over for dinner in the evening. This was a routine that had gradually formed over the years. Because Yang's mother relented, Yang's father seemed to have a different impression of his sudden appearance of his son-in-law, so the atmosphere at the dinner table was not bad.

Although Yang Dongxu's grandparents seem to have some objections to their granddaughter's marriage, their eldest son's family has gotten better and better in recent years, and they have also helped their second elder and younger son's family. Therefore, Father Yang's voice has become more and more important. He has full control over his own affairs, his elder brother's affairs, and his younger brother Shengli's family's affairs can also be half in charge.

So the eldest son and daughter-in-law agreed, and the eldest grandson, who has a lot of say in the family, also agreed. Naturally, the two elders had nothing to say.

At night, Hongying's younger sisters Dandan and Zhuo Qing'er sleep in the same room. Anyway, they can sleep in two beds in the room, so Liu Leehom naturally sleeps with Yang Dongxu. It's warm enough for two people to squeeze into two quilts, so there's nothing uncomfortable about it. Old Man Xuan sleeps in a room alone.

"Tomorrow I will take you to the bank in the city and call Uncle and Aunt Qian back. I will also make a phone call to report that everything is safe and explain the matter clearly." After turning off the lights, Yang Dongxu said, unable to sleep for a while.

"Isn't this bad? Your sister won't be gossiped about without a wedding gift?" Liu Leehom was still a little hesitant.

Although he was a little embarrassed when he entered the house, just as Yang's father and mother Yang's impression of him had changed, he also felt that the Yang family was easy to get along with, and that Yang's father and mother were very kind. Even the little brother who was repeatedly reminded by his girlfriend that it was difficult to get along with him became much easier to get along with than he imagined.

"Let's do this, keep half of the money. Give the rest to your parents and give you a thousand as a gift. After you and my sister get the certificate, my sister will take this money back. Leave the extra money. Money, I’ll buy some New Year’s gifts in two days. Since my father agrees, you will go to visit relatives with my sister at the beginning of the year and buy some good New Year’s gifts. It will also be a honor for both our families.”

We are our own family. Although Yang's father and Yang's mother feel that their son-in-law is quite reliable, they still have to pay attention to the etiquette that should be shown to others. This is roughly what a person's face means.

"This is no problem, but isn't one thousand a little too little? And you don't need to take it back. I'm still young and can make money, so I won't let your sister live a hard life." Although he felt sorry for his parents, Liu Leehom took so much money away When I came here, I really didn’t think about letting Hongying take her back after getting married.

What he thinks is that as long as he can marry the girlfriend he likes, it will be fine. As for the hardship of his own life, he will work harder to make money in the future so that his parents can live well.

"Let's do it like this. To put it bluntly, my family doesn't lack your money. We can't let outsiders gossip about this gift as you said. So you don't have to worry about this. If you feel bad about it, treat my sister in the future. Just be better.”

"I will definitely treat your sister well, I can swear this."

"Okay, okay, don't swear, it's the end of the year. Just make sure you know what's going on. I'll drive you to the city tomorrow, and then I'll buy something back. I just don't know if it will snow heavily at night, or how heavy it will be. It's not easy to drive." Yang Dongxu said with a smile when he heard that his brother-in-law was about to swear.

After wrapping themselves in quilts, the two of them chatted some more and fell asleep unconsciously.

When it dawned in the morning, Yang Dongxu woke up and found that his brother-in-law had already gotten up. He put on his clothes and opened the curtains to look outside. He found that the sky was terrifyingly cloudy, but it was not snowing.

"Get up quickly, why are you so lazy? Brush your teeth and eat quickly, and send your brother-in-law to the city to remit money later." Although his coat was on, Yang Dongxu still didn't want to leave the warm quilt, so he sat on the bed in a daze, Yang's mother Opened the door and walked in.

"They say you forget your mother when you have a wife, but you have a son-in-law and forget your son." Yang Dongxu started to put on his long johns in a funny way.

"Your brother-in-law is just much more diligent than you. What kind of work have you done at home like uncle?" Yang's mother snorted and turned away from the house.

"I provoked someone, why did my status in the family plummet?" Yang Dongxu curled his lips speechlessly, put on his clothes and jumped out of the bed.

After washing up and going downstairs, Father Yang and Leehom Liu walked in from the door dripping with sweat. It turns out that Liu Leehom, who got up early, accompanied Yang's father to the pig farm and was busy all morning. The two of them were indeed a little lazier than Yang Dongxu, who had just woken up.

But Young Master Yang was obviously thick-skinned and didn't care about it at all. I ate as much as I should for breakfast, and even ate an extra egg.

"Drive slower on the road." Yang's mother couldn't help but tell her when she saw her son and daughter getting into the car.

"I know, I'm an experienced driver who has been driving for many years." Yang Dongxu said with a smile.

Not only were he and Liu Leehom in the car, there were also his sisters Hongying and Dandan, and Zhuo Qing'er who followed after hesitating. Although he listened to Yang Dongxu's advice, Liu Leehom decided to send part of the money home to prevent his parents from being too tight during the New Year this year.

But in addition to the bride price of 1,000 yuan and annual gifts, he also decided to sell clothes for his girlfriend and buy some gifts for Yang’s father and mother. The Yang family should not be too stingy if they are kind to each other. The younger sisters Dandan and Zhuo Qing'er obviously came to join in the fun.

However, Yang Dongxu also had some money in his pocket before he came out, so he could just pay for whatever the little girl wanted to buy, and it would not add any burden to Liu Leehom.

If Liu Lihong buys something for his family or gives gifts to his family after marriage, he will naturally not stop them, and he will accept whatever they give. But before marriage, he must not let them spend so much money, even if Liu Lihong is willing, after all, their family is not rich.

When they went there, the sky was terribly gloomy, and when they came back, the sky had already started to snow, and it was not small. It took more than half an hour to get back to the village from the city. The road was basically covered with snow, and the green wheat fields began to turn white.

Bringing a bunch of things back was naturally inevitable to be complained by Yang's mother, but this kind of complaint made brother-in-law Liu Lihong smile. Hongying took her younger sister and Zhuo Qing'er upstairs to try on clothes, although these clothes were much worse than those sold in her store in terms of quality and style, not to mention the price of the dress. But wearing a set of clothes bought by her boyfriend seemed to make her happier than wearing those expensive brand names.

"Who was that person just now? Why does he look a little familiar?" After moving the things out of the car, Yang Dongxu asked the woman who had walked away.

I have never stayed at home since I was a child, and I worked outside for most of my previous life. So apart from the people in the village, I can still call the names of the people in the neighboring village. There is only one person who looks familiar.

"From Xiaowangzhuang, you should call her aunt. I am here to propose marriage to your sister." Yang's mother said.

"Dandan is still young, why are you in such a hurry?" Yang Dongxu didn't care much about whether to call her aunt or not. They have lived on this land for generations and the distance is not very far. If it is really discussed, you can be connected to relatives by twists and turns, but he frowned when he proposed marriage to his younger sister.

"How can I be young at 19? Your father married me when he was 18, and your elder sister was already 19."

"How can I be 19? That's the virtual age, okay? The actual age is just over 17 years old."

"In the countryside, people talk about the virtual age, who will tell you the actual age?" Yang's mother glared at her son.

"You don't have to be so anxious. You need to find out who the target is. We don't care how rich the man's family is, but the character must be good." Maybe he can say something about who his sister chooses, but the blind date is obviously decided by Yang's mother, and he can't get involved.

"Do you need to say that?" Yang's mother glanced at her son and turned and walked out the door. It was unknown who she was going to talk to.

Obviously, Yang's mother was still angry about her son's support for her daughter's love. Although her son-in-law seems to be a good person now, her son can't forgive him easily, otherwise he will really turn the world upside down.

Yang Dongxu naturally felt his mother's anger towards him, but he obviously didn't care. There is no mother in the world who hates her son. His mother is just a little angry, and it will be fine in two days.

It was snowing heavily outside, so he couldn't go to the wild with Xiaowu and the others. His brother-in-law went to the pig farm to help. His sister, Zhuo Qing'er and Dandan were trying on new clothes upstairs, so he had to sit in the store alone.

Compared to the previous few years, the business of Yang's wholesale store has plummeted. Except for some things that can be sold at the end of the year, there are few customers all year round. Because most of their stores are closed, it seems that such a small store can't make money by raising pigs.

Not only their uncle Shengli's store is basically the same as his family, they open a store to do business when they are free. And in addition to their two families, the stores with vegetable greenhouses at home also have this trend. I just don't know if these families will continue to open stores after the vegetable greenhouses are really demolished.

"Xuzi, do you have anything to do tomorrow?" Yinshan wandered to the door of the store from somewhere and handed a cigarette to Yang Dongxu, but he waved his hand to refuse.

Knowing that Yang Dongxu doesn't smoke, Yinshan gave way and put the cigarette in his mouth. Compared to Yinshan who wanted to develop as a second-rate person in previous years, Yinshan has been doing a lot in the past two years, especially following his uncle Shengli's sports car for a few years, and he can be considered to be grown up and capable of doing things.

"What's wrong, is there something wrong?" Yang Dongxu asked, wrapping up his clothes.

He considered whether to close the shop door and go upstairs to sit in bed and read. Only then did he sit in the shop for a while, and the cold wind kept blowing into the seams of his clothes.

"If you have nothing to do tomorrow, pick me up in the car, and you can accompany me to pay the gift?" Yinshan showed a smile that he couldn't hide.

"It's settled?" Yang Dongxu asked with a smile.

"The gift will be paid tomorrow, so there's no need to run away?"

"Whose girl? Is she pretty?" Yang Dongxu continued to tease.

"She must be pretty, otherwise I would like her?" Yinshan was a little proud.

"Come on, it's your blessing that others like you, why are you so proud?" The third grandfather also came out of the heavy snow at this time, stretched out his hand and slapped his son on the back of his head.

Yinshan's face was obviously a little unhappy because he was still older than his father at such a age, but he just pouted and didn't dare to say anything.
