"Hmph, let's see how you perform."
Lin Jingyu snorted and continued walking forward. "Although I don't know why your family is in such a hurry for you to get married, I won't agree to it for the time being."
"Jingyu, what are your thoughts...?"
Peng Qibo followed her, and was not displeased by what she said.
“You know I just started college.”
Lin Jingyu expressed her thoughts, "I will definitely focus on my studies in the next two years. I don't want to distract myself from my family for the time being."
I understand what you mean.
Peng Qibo had a premonition of this, so he wasn't too surprised.
So he smiled and said, "Jingyu, we've been together for five or six years, shouldn't you give me a proper status?"
"Name?"
"Yes, please give me a proper status."
"Why would a grown man like you want a title?"
Why can't I have a formal title?
Peng Qibo gazed at her with a deep look in his eyes, "We can't get married for now, but you must give me a title, at least let people know that you have a proper owner, so that no one else will covet you."
"You don't trust me?"
Lin Jingyu didn't know whether to be angry or amused, "I'm the one who's afraid of being dumped, what are you, Young Master Peng, afraid of?"
"I'm the one who's afraid of being dumped."
Peng Qibo, with a bitter expression, looked up at the sky and said, "Who told me to be so old? If you don't give me a proper status, what will I do if no one wants me in the future?"
"Pfft~"
Lin Jingyu couldn't help but laugh.
"You're still laughing."
Peng Qibo gave her an accusing look, "How can you bear to let me follow you without any status or recognition? Even if you don't want to get married right now, you should at least give me a proper status."
"You want to get engaged?"
Lin Jingyu guessed his thoughts, "If you want to get engaged, you should first win over my parents and my maternal grandparents."
They all agreed, and I had no objections.
"real!"
Peng Qibo smiled brightly, "Don't worry, I will definitely get the elders to agree."
...
The two were talking outside.
The main hall of the Zhang family residence.
After chatting for a while, Grandpa Peng revealed his plans: "Brother Zhang, I came to see you today to discuss something with you."
"You must have something to say to come here at this time."
Grandpa Zhang smiled.
Although he had a suspicion in his heart, he remained calm on the surface and asked, "Just say what's on your mind. There's no need for formalities between us."
"I've come here today to propose marriage on behalf of my son, Qibo."
Grandpa Peng said with a smile, "I've taken a liking to your Jingyu girl. She's a good girl, and I'd like to propose marriage to her as our eldest granddaughter-in-law. What do you think?"
"That child between Xiao Jingyu and Qibo?"
Grandpa Zhang deliberately feigned surprise, saying, "When did these two kids fall for each other? I thought they were just ordinary friends."
I never expected your family would take a liking to my little Yu'er.
"This girl is still young, she just got into university, isn't it too early to talk about this?"
"It's not a big deal to go to university after getting married."
Mr. Peng stated frankly, "Many of the students taking the college entrance examination this year already have children, and universities do not impose any restrictions on this."
That's true.
Grandpa Zhang nodded, then added, "Qibo is a good kid, I have no problem with him, but Xiao Jingyu's parents probably don't know about this."
Brother Zhang, although I am Xiao Jingyu's maternal grandfather, her marriage needs her parents' consent.
I can't possibly agree to anything you say without going through her parents' approval.
"In my opinion, it's not too late for you to discuss Xiao Jingyu's marriage after Chu Yan and Yu Xuan return to the capital."
"this……"
Grandpa Peng pondered for a moment.
He couldn't refute what the other party said; indeed, children's marriages only make sense if their parents give their permission.
However, Lin Chuyan and her husband didn't know when they would be able to come to the capital.
He hoped that Lin Jingyu would be able to marry into the Peng family after the New Year.
He then suggested, "I remember your son-in-law and daughter have both met my Qibo. Why don't you call them and tell them about this, and see what their opinions are?"
"I definitely need to tell them about this."
Old Master Zhang frowned slightly. "Brother Peng, do you have some plans? Or has something happened?"
"Qibo is not young anymore; people his age have long been married and have children."
After a slight hesitation, Grandpa Peng revealed his plan: "Brother Zhang, I plan to have my two children get married after the New Year."
"After the New Year?"
Old Master Zhang's expression changed, and his eyes suddenly sharpened. "Aren't we in too much of a hurry? Or has something happened?"
"The reason he works."
Grandpa Peng said frankly, "I'm afraid that once he gets his job assigned after the New Year, he'll be gone for another two or three years, and by then he'll be almost thirty years old."
We can't let him drag this on forever. We, as his elders, naturally have to consider his well-being. Don't you agree, Brother Zhang?
"Qibo is indeed getting on in years; it's time to start making plans."
Grandpa Zhang then added a comment.
Suddenly, something occurred to me: "When it comes to marriage, besides the consent of the parties involved, the main factors are the thoughts and opinions of the parents."
I'll talk to Chu Yan and Yu Xuan later and see what their opinions are.
By the way, I don't think I've noticed that Xiaoyuer has any plans to get married.
Teacher Peng, does my little Yu'er not know about your family's plans?
It seems the two younger generations haven't visited each other's parents yet...
