After discussing it, both sets of parents insisted on their decision, and the Tang family elders had no choice but to agree. The Han family had given a bride price of 880,000 yuan, so they had to contribute more in terms of dowry. Regardless of what the young couple wanted to do, in the end, both sets of parents contributed 880,000 yuan, which would make it sound better when the dowry was announced.

The older generation's ideas are somewhat different from those of the younger generation. The Tang family has been rooted in the town for generations, while the Han family also plans to hold the wedding in their hometown, K City, because most of the Han family's relatives and friends are in K City. Out of a little bit of inexplicable desire to show off, both sets of parents want to have a grand wedding.

There's a saying: "To return home in wealth and honor is like wearing brocade at night."

With such an accomplished child and such a significant event as a wedding, how can we keep it low-key?

Whether it's a pre-wedding banquet or a formal wedding, it should be a grand affair!

Upon learning the results, Tang Xiaoxiao and Han Yunqi...

Okay, whatever makes you happy.

Neither family is wealthy; they both have the most down-to-earth mentality of ordinary citizens. When their children are successful, have accomplished careers, or marry well, they are eager to show off to everyone they know.

These little tricks are not annoying at all; on the contrary, they are quite adorable.

The final result of the discussion was naturally a happy one, with neither side having any objections. Tang Xiaoxiao no longer dwelled on the difference in her parents' attitudes towards her in the two lifetimes. After her rebirth, everyone's original trajectory had changed, and the things that had passed in her previous life should have been let go long ago.

After the betrothal was finalized, it was time to get busy with wedding preparations. Han's parents returned to D City and immediately got busy. Tang Xiaoxiao and Han Yunqi didn't care about anything else, only expressing their desire to have a traditional Chinese wedding. Tang Xiaoxiao even had her own phoenix coronet and wedding gown custom-made.

The Han couple readily agreed.

Now that they were officially engaged, the two could openly and legitimately be together. Han Yunqi even dared to hold Tang Xiaoxiao's hand in front of his future father-in-law.

......

In March, the grass grows and the orioles fly.

Tang Xiaoxiao and Han Yunqi found a plot of land near Yunxiao Logistics Company and built a courtyard to serve as a pet rescue station.

If it weren't for what happened to Black Panther before the New Year, Tang Xiaoxiao would never have thought of these stray little guys. In her previous life, she was allergic to cat and dog fur and couldn't keep pets herself, so she often fed the stray cats and dogs in the community. Later, some residents complained that the stray cats and dogs would scare their children, so the property management chased all the animals away.

Although Tang Xiaoxiao often thinks about the furry kids she feeds, there's nothing she can do about it.

After returning to this life, she gained the ability, but she never thought of doing anything for these small animals.

Tang Xiaoxiao and Han Yunqi funded the construction of this shelter-like place out of their own pockets. They put up a sign, hired some staff to manage it, and it can accept stray cats and dogs brought in by kind-hearted people. There is no official agency involved, so it is a purely private public welfare project.

The place wasn't far from Han Yunqi's company, so he could visit it anytime he had free time. Tang Xiaoxiao was relieved and didn't have to worry about the animals being mistreated.

That day, Tang Xiaoxiao was leisurely sunbathing in the yard when she received a call from He Haisheng, whom she hadn't contacted in a long time.

The voice on the other end was very excited: "Boss! How have you been lately? Have you missed me?"

After He Zhan and Tang Xinxin got married, Tang Xiaoxiao and He Haisheng were officially related. According to seniority, He Haisheng should call her "Auntie," but both of them felt awkward about it. So they privately agreed to call each other whatever they wanted in front of their elders, but of course, they would try to avoid calling each other by name... As for private matters, they would stick to their original way of addressing each other.
