The Mo family and the Song family chatted happily. When Mo Lao learned that Song Yining was the granddaughter of the Shen family, he sighed inwardly.
"It's all fate. Back then, neither of our families had girls, and we were even thinking of getting married. Now, it's really happened that the two of them have met."
Old Song and Old Mo were chatting in the study, discussing the current situation.
"At first I didn't realize it was your family. I thought there were very few people with the surname Mo. I never expected it to be such a coincidence."
"After not seeing her for more than ten years, when I saw Ningning's face, I thought I saw Tang Yanran. Back then, she was one of the most active members of their group."
"Her health is also a major worry for Lao Shen. I wonder how she is now."
"The world is slowly getting better now, and I think there will be big changes in less than two or three years."
"Yes! The decisiveness of our decision back then is what has ensured our current stability."
"I wonder how Old Shen is doing?"
"They're doing quite well in the port city. They came to Guangzhou recently for the Canton Fair, and I believe there will be more opportunities in the future."
"Things will get better and better, and those parasites will be found out slowly."
“Jun Jie’s wife is Lao Fu’s granddaughter. It’s all fate. We’ve always thought about our families becoming in-laws, and now our children have met and fallen for each other.”
"Time flies, we've all grown old, and we don't know if we'll ever meet again."
"Yes, I believe it won't be long before it happens."
The two chatted for a while and then came out. Seeing everyone chatting together, they hoped that it could be just as lively and bustling in the future.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the Song family, representing Shen Junjie's family, went to the Fu family to introduce the two families.
Shen Junjie's decision was also made because he had no family members, and the Song family went back and discussed it overnight.
Shen Junjie only found out yesterday, so he set the date for the first day of junior high school.
Since the old man passed away, the Fu family has had little contact with the locals. Given the unstable situation, and considering that they have been practicing medicine for generations, it's best to keep a low profile.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, two cars went to the Fu family's house again, and everyone saw the whole family arrive at the Fu family's house.
The gifts were secretly prepared by Song Yining yesterday, and Mo Yucheng also prepared some.
This was another group of people who had traveled in two cars. When they arrived at the Fu family's house, the neighbors saw a large group of people carrying gifts and then going to the Fu family's house.
The neighbors were incredibly envious, and the Fu family became the talk of the town during this period.
When the third year of junior high school arrived, the Fu family welcomed Shen Junjie and his comrades to pick up the bride.
Song Yining and the others were waiting for the bride to arrive at the compound so they could go to the compound's canteen together.
Weddings these days are very simple. After exchanging vows in the cafeteria, the wedding will be complete.
After finishing the banquet, the Song family went back to their courtyard house to rest, having gone there very early that day.
Next, they began preparing for their engagement at the Mo family's residence.
Time was already tight, and the engagement dress was made by several of my sisters-in-law who worked overtime to make it.
After sending them back, Song Yining prepared to go with Mo Yucheng to try on clothes.
When they arrived at the compound and met the neighbors, Song Yining was introduced to them in a generous manner.
Everyone looked at the beautiful Song Yining and praised her with kind words.
The Hu family also saw it; Hu Lina was so angry that her nails were clenched tightly behind her in the crowd.
After returning home, I stayed there, thinking about how to thwart their engagement party.
That evening, Hu Lina gathered her old friends together, saying that she hadn't had a chat with them since she came back.
That evening, they chatted with their former boyfriends and girlfriends. Everyone brought some food and sat together to talk about everyday things.
Liu Guanlin, who used to play with them, thought that since Mo Yucheng was also at home, he wanted Mo Chenzhi to come over too, so that it would be more lively with more people.
Mo Yucheng didn't want to go; it was just kids who went there to join in the fun.
Unable to resist Da Tou's invitation, the group went to the activity room in the compound, a place where they often spent time together when they were children.
Da Tou, who loves excitement, couldn't resist Hu Lina's few words and got things done perfectly.
Hu Lina is quite good-looking, and Da Tou is her admirer.
When Hu Lina and her family came back this time, Da Tou was the most active. Knowing that she wanted to chat with her old playmates in the yard, he actively gathered everyone together.
Seeing that almost everyone had arrived, Hu Lina was quite disappointed to see that Mo Yucheng and the others hadn't come.
When Mo Yucheng and Mo Chenzhi arrived, Da Tou quickly gathered them together to sit down.
Hu Lina solicitously offered them drinks, and the uncle and nephew accepted them out of politeness.
After sitting down, everyone talked about their current situation. The uncle and nephew listened to everyone's lively discussion in silence.
The conversation turned to Mo Yucheng, and everyone was very curious about the person he was getting engaged to.
Mo Yucheng didn't answer their questions; he just sat there quietly, and everyone sensed the awkward atmosphere.
Hu Lina then suggested that everyone could perform their talents, such as singing or telling jokes.
As a member of the performing arts troupe, Hu Lina absolutely couldn't miss the opportunity to showcase herself through dance.
After the dance ended, everyone applauded, and Lin Tianlin was completely mesmerized.
Mo Yucheng didn't watch the performance, and after Hu Lina finished, he became a little impatient and prepared to go home.
Hu Lina couldn't let go of the person she had finally managed to meet. Before she could even catch her breath, she rushed over and, together with Da Tou, stopped him.
"It's rare for Uncle Mo to have a chat, and we don't know when the next time will be, so let's sit down and chat again."
Mo Yucheng knew she had no good intentions, so he decided to play along and sit down to see what tricks she would pull next.
Seeing that the man hadn't left, Hu Lina felt relieved and poured everyone a glass of wine.
"Thank you all for gathering here today. It's been a long time since we last met. I've prepared a small feast and hope you'll all enjoy it."
Seeing Hu Lina holding the Moutai liquor, everyone exclaimed in surprise, "She's really gone all out!"
Moutai isn't cheap, and they were lucky enough to get to drink it today.
Although they live in a compound, they are still very valuable in this era.
Mo Yucheng thoughtfully held the wine that was handed to him, still whispering to Mo Chenzhi, before finally switching his wine to Da Tou's.
The uncle and nephew pretended to drink, but actually poured the wine into a handkerchief and didn't drink it.
The slightly inferior Yanghe liquor that Da Tou brought was not criticized by anyone; everyone drank it and shared their thoughts.
The uncle and nephew took a small sip and poured it all into their handkerchiefs.
Mo Chenzhi went out again to wring out the handkerchief before coming back in.
Hu Lina looked at the empty wine glass and finally felt relieved.
They prepared two bottles of Moutai and Yanghe liquor today, and everyone has almost finished drinking them.
When she had almost finished drinking, Hu Lina kept a close eye on what was happening here.
They were waiting for everyone to be slightly tipsy before they could carry out their plan.
