At about eleven o'clock, a black car stopped in front of Jiang's building.
He Yan got out of the car and opened the door for his parents.
The car was already conspicuous, and it was parked at Jiang's house at noon.
He's father and mother who came down were even more conspicuous.
Mr. He is a leader, and his attitude as a superior comes from within.
He was wearing a Zhongshan suit with a dark green woolen coat on the outside. He's mother was also wearing a Zhongshan suit with a brown woolen coat on the outside and a simple scarf.
In Jiang Tang's opinion, this is a bit like the chaebols in later TV dramas.
This is nothing, the most important thing is that they brought a truck full of things.
Aunt Zhang next to him saw He Yan at a glance.
Seeing him carrying a lot of things out of the trunk, I hurried out of the house with a spatula to watch the fun.
When the Jiang family heard the noise, they hurried out to greet them.
Jiang Guangtao was also very formal today, wearing the clothes that symbolized his military service, and he had the aura of a military soldier.
What Liu Xiulan was wearing was a padded, round-necked, gray, textured, short tweed jacket that Jiang Tang bought for her. Of course, this kind of clothing should be paired with a high-necked top.
Meng Sining bought her a beige sweater.
I have to say, my best friend has a good eye for clothes.
Both sets of parents were so conspicuous. "In-laws, please come in."
At this time, the people in the Jiang family were greeting each other and welcoming their in-laws into the house.
.
Seeing He Yan still outside moving things out of the car, Liu Xinchi and Jiang Mo hurried over to help.
Aunt Zhang saw several wooden gift boxes.
Not knowing what it was, he went over and asked, "Comrade He is here. Is he... coming to propose marriage?"
"Yes, Aunt Zhang."
As he said this, he took out a few candies from his pocket and gave them to Aunt Zhang.
Aunt Zhang took the candy with a smile and said, "I've always said that you and Tangtang are the perfect match. It looks like your wedding is not far away."
After saying that, he looked inside the car and found a leg of lamb, several cartons of cigarettes, and two boxes of wine.
"Oh, Tangtang is so lucky to have such a thing."
He Yan smiled and said, "I love you so much that it hurts."
Then he followed his brother-in-law into the yard.
The living room is very lively at this moment.
"My dear in-laws, you have walked all the way. Have you adapted to the weather here? It's a bit cold today. Please drink some hot water to warm yourself up."
The black tea Liu Xiulan brought was at just the right temperature, warming the hands and drinkable directly.
Mother He took a sip and hummed, "This is the black tea from Tangtang's village, right?
A Yan sent some home, and his grandfather loved it. He said your black tea is very smooth.
Liu Xiulan smiled and said, "This tea is really good. When the new tea comes out next year, I'll have Tangtang mail some back to Grandpa."
The second aunt on the side said: "Sister-in-law, maybe by next year, Tangtang will become the grandpa's granddaughter-in-law, so you don't need to explain it, haha."
Everyone in the room laughed at this.
The person in the family who is most worldly-wise is Second Aunt.
Greeting guests with ease.
After meeting and chatting for a while, the in-laws can get to know each other's family members' personalities.
Jiang family, Liu Xiulan is a primary school teacher and teaching director.
Needless to say, my father has an older brother who is away from home all year round.
My sister also just got married this year.
During the conversation, He's mother could tell that Liu Xiulan was not the kind of person who favored boys over girls, but was cheerful and open-minded.
He's father is also very good at judging people, and he feels that this relative can get along well.
When the conversation got to the point, He's mother also spoke: "Lao He and I only asked for a half-month vacation, but we have prepared everything for the children.
The matchmaker at the side said, "Speaking of the He family's betrothal gifts, they're truly incredible. Twenty cartons of fine cigarettes, two boxes of Maotai, ten rolls of cloth, a leg of lamb, and the two thousand yuan gift money are all ready."
Jiang Guangtao smiled and said, "The betrothal gift is just a formality. As long as the children live well, that's all that matters."
Having said that, He's mother still stuffed a red cloth bag into Jiang Tang's hand, which contained ten brand new Great Unity banknotes and two national food coupons.
This time, the He family's parents made their intentions very clear. They brought all the gifts and betrothal gifts with them, just wanting to hold their children's wedding while the two of them were around.
Jiang Guangtao didn't answer immediately. Deep down, he was reluctant.
Three hours later, He's parents got up and said goodbye.
Father Jiang and Father He walked side by side to the door. They exchanged a few words in low voices. Suddenly, Father He took Father Jiang's hand and said, "Father in law, we are not often here. If Ah Yan does anything wrong in the future, please feel free to criticize him. We will never defend him."
Jiang Guangtao smiled and said, "Young people, it's inevitable that there will be bumps and bruises. It's only through quarrels that relationships grow stronger. As long as it's not irreconcilable, we adults should stay out of it if we can."
He's father also agreed with what he said.
Jiang Tang and He Yan walked at the back.
He Yan suddenly pulled out a small box from his coat pocket: "I almost forgot about this."
Inside was a delicate little box: "This is for you."
"What?" Jiang Tang said as he was about to open it.
He Yan held it down with one hand: "Open it when you return to your room tonight."
"So mysterious?"
He Yan smiled shyly, a rare occurrence.
After seeing off the He family.
Everyone in the Jiang family gathered in the living room and discussed what they had said to the He family.
Second Aunt said, "I think it's a good idea. It's not easy for their parents to come here, so we can do it while we have time."
Jiang Guangtao frowned, smoked a cigarette and said nothing.
Second Uncle was also smoking, looking at the smoke, nodding in agreement with Second Aunt: "He Yan's father turned out to be the factory director. The director of this tobacco factory is quite impressive. His family background is worthy of our Tangtang."
Liu Xiulan looked at the second brother and his wife and sighed, "We thought we were coming here to meet and get engaged, but now we're trying to get things done right away. It's too hasty."
Jiang Mo said: "Mom, what's the big deal, He Yan is not a bad person, it's just a matter of time anyway..."
There are examples like this in our compound. Take Meng Sining for example. He originally went to Beijing to study, but he came back and got married after one month.
Third brother, I asked you at that time, what did you say? "
"Ah, Si Ning, aren't her parents going to do research? They won't be back for a year or two, and they wanted to see her get married before they left. Coincidentally, her boyfriend was free during those few days, so the two families discussed it and got it done."
Second Aunt said, "Yes, the situation is similar. Their parents are not from here, and they have jobs, so it's not easy for them to ask for leave."
Jiang Guangtao looked at Jiang Tang and said, "Old Three, what do you think?"
"Dad, I'm only nineteen after this year. It's too early to get married."
"Then reject it. Get engaged first and wait a year or two before making a decision."
Second Aunt said, "What nineteen? Your nineteenth birthday has already passed."
My second uncle and second aunt were quite satisfied with the He family and felt that they should agree.
But Jiang Guangtao couldn't bear to do so.
This matter was put on hold.
