The Qu family courtyard, which was originally bustling with people, suddenly fell into silence.

Friends and relatives silently looked at Qu Aiguo's "petite" and ordinary-looking blind date.

Everyone's expression was somewhat intriguing.

Even Qu Songsheng and Lin Wanxia were stunned.

Unexpectedly, Qu Aiguo had previously liked a tall, bright and beautiful girl like Jiang Xiaofang.

He would turn around and fall in love with someone who looked like an underage elementary school girl.

[Big cousin, this is truly bowing to power!]

Qu Manman watched and complained silently in her heart.

This cousin's wife never appeared in the original book.

Now the plot has changed, and I don’t know where the other party came from?

But we can’t look down on people just because they are short and plain looking, right?

[Don't judge a person by appearance. Maybe this girl is talented and has a good temper.]

Qu Manman had just muttered this in her heart when she saw the girl holding Qu Aiguo's hand ignoring the relatives of the Qu family around them.

She said coquettishly, "Aiguo, it's so boring to be at home during the New Year! I heard that the supply and marketing cooperative is open for business today, why don't you take me there to have a look?"

Qu Aiguo had long noticed the strangeness among his relatives and friends, and felt a little embarrassed.

Blushing slightly, she said, "Hongmei, we're getting engaged today, so we have to have dinner with our relatives and friends first."

Zhou Hongmei immediately said: "Oh, my parents are here anyway, let them talk if you have anything to say."

"Let's go out and play—"

As he said this, he was about to pull Qu Aiguo out.

Zhou's parents just looked at their daughter with a smile on their faces, without saying anything to stop her.

Old Mrs. Qu and Old Man Qu were waiting for their future granddaughter-in-law to come forward and say hello, and they were dumbfounded when they saw this.

Seeing this, Qu Baosheng and Sun Xiulian stepped forward and said, "My dear relatives, Hongmei, the banquet is ready. Let's eat first and then go out to play!"

Zhou Hongmei turned her head away proudly when she heard this: "No need, you guys just eat. I don't want to eat. There's nothing good to eat anyway."

After hearing this, the faces of everyone in the Qu family suddenly turned unhappy.

Zhou Hongmei didn't care and grabbed Qu Aiguo's arm and pulled him out.

Qu Aiguo was embarrassed when he was pulled away, but Zhou's parents kept saying, "Hongmei wants to play, so you guys can go out and play."

"We as parents can discuss the engagement."

He also reminded Qu Aiguo: "Remember to bring more money. Hongmei loves to eat peach biscuits from the supply and marketing cooperative. Remember to buy her some of each."

"I, this, this..." Qu Aiguo looked reluctant.

Zhou's parents pointed to another girl and introduced her: "This is Hongmei's younger sister, our second daughter Hongyu."

"It doesn't matter if Hongmei is not here. If you want to measure the size of Hongmei's clothes, just follow Hongyu's measurements."

"They're all about the same size anyway."

According to local customs, the parents of both parties and the young man and woman must sit together during the engagement ceremony.

They offer each other tea, receive red envelopes, exchange engagement letters, and negotiate matters such as betrothal gifts and wedding ceremonies.

They also have to give gifts, customize new clothes, etc. Then the two families of relatives can sit together and have a lively meal, and then it will be considered a deal.

Now, after just one encounter, the two people who were about to get married left.

How to talk with my parents and sister?

Who offers tea and to whom does the red envelope go?

What do you want to do for your wedding?

Are these things that parents can replace?

It would be fine if Zhou Hongmei was short, but she also didn't know the rules.

Some of the Qu family's relatives couldn't help but talk about it: "It seems that Aiguo is really putting on airs!"

"It's more than just being arrogant, I feel spoiled."

"Her parents don't know the rules either. They just let her do whatever she wants."

"Ah, patriotism is a close relationship, although people and family backgrounds must always be considered."

"This is going too far..."

"Can't you see? Aiguo is marrying above his station. The girl's family is good, and he's deliberately taking advantage of Aiguo..."

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Qu Baosheng felt a little embarrassed: "Well, my in-laws, it's hard to discuss the two children's marriage without them here, right?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a middle-aged man with a big belly walked in from outside the door.

From a distance, he shouted to Qu Baosheng, "Secretary Qu, my niece is not here. I'm here to talk to you about marriage. Is that okay?"

“Oh my—”

Qu Baosheng jumped up like a rabbit and hurried over to greet him: "Director Qian, why did you come in person without telling me? Your presence has really brightened up my little house!"

"Also, please don't call me Secretary. I'm not the Secretary of Quwan Village anymore."

The other party laughed heartily in front of everyone, oblivious to the crowd: "Not now, but maybe in the future! Anyway, our two families are relatives. I'll help you put in a good word with the village."

"Thank you so much, Director Qian. Please take a seat."

Qu Baosheng was overjoyed. He immediately nodded and bowed, holding the other person's hand, and smiled so much that the wrinkles on his face blossomed like flowers.

Qu Songsheng couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to go back to the house with Lin Wanxia and Qu Manman.

But Qu Baosheng stopped him and introduced him: "Director Qian, this is my brother Songsheng. He now runs a restaurant in the county town."

"When you come to the county next time, feel free to eat at his restaurant."

"Now that Hongmei is married, we'll be a family. I promise to treat you well. It's free, just eat for free."

Eat for free as soon as the three words come out.

Qu Songsheng was so angry that his eyes widened.

It's bad enough that this cheap big brother of mine looks down on me, but he even wants to do me a favor?

He was so angry that he immediately responded: "My restaurant is small, just a fly-infested place. I usually sell breakfast and big pot dishes to students."
