"Grandpa, I'm so sorry, I can only come to see you today because of work."

"Hehe, it's okay. I understand you; you're doing this to serve the people."

I heard that your research institute is extremely busy?

"I can't really explain it, it's just that it takes a lot of time."

"Thank you for your hard work."

Cheng Guangxu smiled and shook his head. "It's not hard work. I have half a month to rest. Although I can't leave the capital, I can at least stay at home with my family for a while."

“Grandpa Hu, I learned about your idea yesterday, and I agree. The child will have the surname Hu and will be my grandson, Cheng Guangxu.”

Hu Jinlong looked at Cheng Guangxu excitedly. He hadn't expected the other party to agree so easily.

"Thank you, my little Zhen is so lucky."

"Grandpa Hu, don't worry, you won't be mistreated after marrying into our family." Cheng Guangxu was assuring the old man.

The three of them stayed for lunch, and Cheng Guangxu praised his daughter-in-law's cooking skills.

After seeing off the Cheng family, only the three of them remained. Hu Jinlong looked at his great-granddaughter, "Xiao Zhen, you must cherish this opportunity. The Cheng family are all sensible people, and your great-grandfather hopes you can live a happy life."

"Grandpa, I will."

"Remember this from now on: be filial to your elders. People will treat you better. If you are good to your parents-in-law, Ping An will be even better to your mother."

"Grandpa, I understand that. Besides, I really like Grandma Ping'an and Mom."

"You know it yourself, that's all that matters. Life is what you live, and whether it's good or bad, it's up to you. You need to always be clear about your place."

After helping the elderly woman lie down, the mother and daughter returned to their room.

“Xiao Zhen, this is a good family. Your great-grandfather is right. You should cherish them.”

"Yes, I know. I'm not stupid. Mom, I will definitely be very happy in the future."

After arriving home safely, the family sat together and discussed matters concerning the husband's family.

Cheng Guangxu had no objections as long as his son was willing.

The engagement is in a week. The restaurant has already made arrangements. My brother and his family of three will arrive in twenty. Shi Tou can't come, but Liu Xu has already gotten into the car.

"Guangxu, should we notify your relatives back home?" Liu Maocai asked his son-in-law.

Cheng Guangxu shook his head. "No need. The old folks have all passed away. I'm all that age, and we haven't been in touch for so many years."

On Monday, Cheng Guangxu and the other two went to the compound to see Zhang Hongmei.

"The three of you are leading a research team?"

“This is a special case. We’re not old enough to lead a team anymore.”

The four men sat in the study, discussing computer software development and the internet.

“Hongmei, I feel like I can’t keep up,” Cheng Guangxu sighed.

"Yes, the development is really fast; these are things we never dared to imagine before."

The three of them stayed for lunch, and looking at the nine children, they were all very envious.

“You don’t need to worry. Ping An has been taken care of. Wang Ying came back and said that Zhiyu and Qingyang have both agreed to come back after graduation for blind dates.”

Even so, they can only have one child.

There's nothing Zhang Hongmei can do about it; it's policy.

The three of them left after lunch. Zhang Hongmei also went to rest.

It's Saturday, the day of Ping An and Hu Peizhen's engagement. The restaurant is closed to the public today because we've been informed that our boss and his wife will be coming.

Hu Jinlong also came today with the help of his bodyguards. Wang Ying presided over today's ceremony.

Afterwards, Zhang Shouyi chatted with Hu Jinlong for a while.

"Mr. Hu, don't worry, Ping An is definitely a good child. He grew up by my side, and I know him well. I also know your concerns about them, so please don't worry."

Hu Jinlong was excited and told Zhang Shouyi about his great-granddaughter, assuring him that the child would definitely be filial to her elders.

A short while later, Gu Chuanming and Zhang Xingguo also arrived.

"Old Hu, don't worry, the child will be just like he is at my home once he arrives at the Cheng family's place. There will be absolutely no problems."

Hu Jinlong nodded. Of course he believed it. Just because all the important people were here today, he understood that his great-granddaughter had married into a good family.

"Xiao Hu, don't worry. If the second child is a daughter, and I'm still alive, I'll give them a quota for a third child."

"Thank you, old commander."

"What are you thanking me for? We're all family. Ping An grew up under my nose, and I think your great-granddaughter is quite good too. You should also live well and meet the next generation."

"Old Chief, I will try my best. My son and grandson died young, and Xiao Zhen is my only descendant. Of course, I hope to meet the Hu family."

The engagement was successfully completed, and the Zhang family left after finishing their meal.

Ping An was going to have dinner with Ping An's classmates and colleagues that evening, so he drove Hu Peizhen home and told her he would pick her up at 5 p.m.

Hu Peizhen saw off her two childhood friends who were still in a daze, and found it quite amusing.

Hu Jinlong felt much more relaxed because of this happy event. He was determined to live a long life and was looking forward to seeing the next generation of the Hu family.

Ping An came to pick up his girlfriend in the afternoon. It was the same restaurant as lunchtime, and this time there were two tables.

Tonight, Ping An drank a lot of alcohol, and even Hu Peizhen had a glass.

It was past ten o'clock when they finished, and both of them were a little dizzy. Ping An's assistant drove them home.

Ping An had his arm around Hu Peizhen's shoulder in the back seat. He felt a little distracted, as if the woman in his arms was his wife.

"Honey, shall we go back upstairs today?"

Upon hearing Ping An's words, Hu Peizhen looked up in surprise at her future husband.

"OK?"

"Ping An, we're not married yet."

"Don't worry, I won't be going on a business trip. Let's go, go back and call home."

The assistant was notified and went directly to the building.

The two helped each other up to the third floor.

Everything was prepared here. After entering, Ping An embraced his wife and showered her with kisses.

Hu Peizhen has been a good girl all these years and has never stayed out all night. So she tried to push Ping An away.

"I'd better call home first, I'm afraid my mom will worry."

Panting, Ping An hugged his wife and went to the phone, dialing his mother-in-law's number directly.

"Mom, it's me, Ping An. Xiao Zhen and I aren't going back today."

Yes, I know, don't worry.

Ping An hung up the phone and then dialed home.

"Dad, we're staying here in the building today." Without waiting for his father to say anything more, he picked up his wife and strode into the bedroom.

Hu Peizhen was extremely nervous. She never expected him to say something like that.

"Ping An, we're not married yet. This won't do." Hu Peizhen's voice trembled slightly.
