Gu Qingmeng and the others finished their breakfast and were chatting at home since it was still early. They were engrossed in their conversation when they heard someone outside shout, "Teacher Gu, are you home?"
"Here!" Gu Qingmeng and Su Xue came out of the house one after another, thinking that something had happened at school. Hearing the voice, they knew it was Li Changnian outside. Guan Beibei and the others were substituting for the class these days, so nothing should have happened.
When I came out, I saw that not only Li Changnian but also many students from the school were standing at the door, holding various things in their hands.
Fu Qingzhou and his wife turned around and went back to get some candy, then took the bag of candy to distribute to the children.
"Congratulations, Teacher Gu, on your engagement." The students shouted in unison.
The loud voice struck Gu Qingmeng's heart directly. Looking at the smiling faces, her heart felt soft and warm. After a while, the children stuffed a lot of things into her body.
"The teacher has accepted the cards you wrote, but other teachers cannot accept them. These are wedding candies for the teacher's engagement, and everyone has a share."
Gu Qingmeng only accepted the greeting cards written by the students, and then began to distribute candies to them. Before she finished distributing the candies in this wave, the next wave arrived.
The students from Lijia Village were the last to arrive. Gu Qingmeng treated everyone equally and gave each of them two candies. Then he sent all the students back to school before class.
Before they entered the yard, they saw Pei Xinghe and his men walking in with things in their hands. Gu Qingmeng looked at Pei Xinghe and asked what was going on.
"Propose marriage! After proposing, get engaged, and then get married." His little girl can't skip any step?
Fu Qingzhou smiled and said, "That's right."
After a few pleasantries, they invited everyone into the house. Pei Xinghe valued their beloved, so how could the Fu family not be happy? Tea, cakes, and candies were all served, and the tea was brewed by Fu Qingzhou himself.
"Uncle-in-law, don't be busy anymore."
Zhang Shuqin thought that since they were so familiar with each other, there was no need to bother entertaining her!
"Auntie, have some tea."
Gu Qingmeng smiled and poured tea to each visitor. There were a few people who came today whom she didn't know. After they introduced each other, she found out that they were Pei Xinghe's two uncles and one uncle-in-law.
The two families praised each other for a long time before getting to the point. In addition to the proposal gifts, they also gave Gu Qingmeng a betrothal gift of 200 yuan.
"Oh~ You're going to be in-laws soon, so there's plenty of time to talk later. Let's get down to business! Let's talk about the marriage of our two children first."
The person who spoke was a middle-aged woman, very friendly. Gu Qingmeng knew her; she was the matchmaker, Aunt Song.
"That's right. My uncle-in-law has a job in Beijing. Don't worry, our Pei family will take good care of the child!" Pei Dazhuang said, turning to look at his youngest son: "Xinghe, what do you think?"
As a father, how could he not know his son's little thoughts? But he had to let him say it himself.
Pei Xinghe looked at his two uncles, then at Gu Qingmeng's rosy little face. He had his own ideas: "Uncle, Qingmeng, after getting engaged today, I want to get married soon."
Sun Yan and Feng Yanan immediately put on the role of mother, and considered the issue from Gu Qingmeng's perspective: "Our Qingmeng is still young! Isn't it too early to get married? How about getting married tomorrow?"
"Our Qingmeng is only nineteen years old. It won't be too late to get engaged and get married after a year or two." Feng Yanan said. She did not approve of early marriage as it would be difficult to have children if she was too young.
Pei Xiuzhen wanted to say that she was not young anymore, but the elders were silent, so how could she speak?
"Nineteen is not young anymore. She has exceeded the age for getting a marriage certificate." The matchmaker Aunt Song spoke up for her.
Pei Xiaozi said that if he succeeded in doing this today, he would give her five more dollars. Gu Zhiqing is really beautiful, no wonder Pei Xiaozi wanted to marry her home as soon as possible.
"Ahem, that gentleman picked a few auspicious dates and said it's not suitable for me to get married next year, so it's best to get married before this year." Pei Xinghe said and looked at Gu Qingmeng. He just wanted to get married early.
Gu Qingmeng: ...
This big brother is really bold to say that, "Sir!" Didn't you see that the whole room was silent for a moment when these two words came out?
Gu Qingmeng didn't expect that Pei Xinghe would go to someone for fortune-telling. He didn't look like someone who believed in fate!
Sun Yan thought for a moment, and when she saw her husband nod, she said, "Then we can get engaged today, and the wedding date can't be too hasty, so as not to let Qingmeng down."
Zhang Shuqin knew her youngest son liked Gu Qingmeng, but she had never imagined he loved her to this extent. No one knows a child better than his mother. When had her son ever believed in fate? Now, not only did he believe in it, he even calculated a good date for his wedding.
"Uncle in law, we are all family members who know each other well. Little Grandpa even knows Qingmeng's grandfather. We will definitely treat Qingmeng well! We won't let her suffer any grievances. The wedding quilts for the wedding at home are almost made. We have also prepared the furniture, three turns and one ring. We can get married at any time."
Zhang Shuqin felt that she had tried her best for her youngest son's marriage, and it seemed that she could no longer keep the thirty-year-old ginseng in her hand.
Pei Xinghe added: "Qingmeng and I can live here. I guess Qingmeng is worried about her brother."
Sun Yan: ...
Feng Yanan: ...
They were speechless for a moment.
Finally, Gu Qingmeng nodded and agreed, which eased the atmosphere.
But when Gu Qingmeng saw Pei Xinghe take out a piece of red paper with three dates written on it, November 6th, November 18th, and December 19th, she fell silent.
Do we have to set the wedding date today?
Gu Qingmeng chose the furthest date, December 19th, which made Pei Xinghe very happy. He could get married in two months.
Pei Xinghe might be the happiest person at this moment, while the other disciples were looking at him speechlessly.
"The engagement banquet at home is almost ready, let's go now!" Pei Dazhuang said with a smile.
He warmly invited everyone to go to the Pei family. Gu Qingmeng and Su Xue walked behind, and in front of them were the brothers Pei Xinghe and Pei Weidong.
"Mengmeng, Pei Xinghe has put a lot of effort into getting married. He really likes it!"
Su Xue muttered softly, and the two of them whispered to each other behind her.
"I'm so envious. Your Pei Weidong treats you badly? Does he not like you?"
Gu Qingmeng hugged her best friend. Compared with Pei Xinghe, Pei Weidong was indeed a little naive. He was straightforward and his thoughts were all shown on his face. But it was undeniable that he liked Su Xue very much, otherwise he would not have handed over his savings to Su Xue so early.
"I'm a little envious, but my Pei Weidong isn't bad either, okay?"
Su Xue envied her best friend's popularity with relatives, but she didn't worry about it. If her relatives weren't available, she still had her best friend! Her best friend also had a big baby space, so she would definitely be able to eat delicious food and drink spicy drinks in the future!
As for Pei Xinghe, considering his sincerity, I handed my best friend over to him.
The village was very lively today. Everyone was discussing Gu Qingmeng and Pei Xinghe. Without exception, they all thought that Gu Qingmeng was blind.
She thought she was deceived by Pei Xinghe's appearance and felt sorry for him. If she had known that she only looked at looks, she would have sent the most beautiful person in the family to her.
What if you like it?
If you take a fancy to their family, wouldn't it be like having a relative in Beijing? It would be very prestigious to talk about it outside.
