Yan Xiaonan took Grandma Yan back to the courtyard house, and Grandma Yan, in high spirits, prepared to find a nice dress.
Yan Xiaonan casually took out a maroon thin cotton-padded jacket from her spatial storage. As she got older, she still needed to keep warm.
Looking at the thin cotton-padded jacket in her hand, Grandma Yan was very satisfied. It was made of brocade with a subtle pattern.
The thickness was just right; it shouldn't be too hot or too cold to wear. Yan Xiaonan put the clothes aside and let her grandmother take a nap.
Grandma Yan opened her eyes wide. Chen Ming came to propose to her, and you want me to sleep? That's so irresponsible!
Yan Xiaonan found it amusing. Who proposes at midday? It's either at sunrise or sunset; that's what's romantic.
Grandma Yan, thinking about the lunch that wasn't finished yet, nodded in agreement, saying that listening to her sweetheart was the right thing to do.
After changing into pajamas and lying in bed, I started snoring softly in the blink of an eye. As people get older, they need more and shorter sleep.
After sending a wisp of mountain god energy to Grandma Yan, Yan Xiaonan returned to her room.
She closed the door, and a thought entered her space: she wanted to find a nicer outfit, and, well, change her hairstyle too.
Or I could dress up as a little girl, but I don't know if Chen Ming would like that. No, no, how can the person being proposed to be a little girl?
If it's not a loli style, then let's get a ladylike style, but the ladylike clothes in the space are just too novel. Wearing styles from this era... ugh~
Keep searching. Hanfu is unrealistic, and a suspender dress would scare the milkmen to death.
Then tie your hair up in a high bun with "dragon whisker bangs" style, and pull down a few strands of hair as you go.
This pink dress is lovely; it's soft and smooth with lace, giving it an ethereal feel. Since it's a bit chilly, I'll add a beige vest underneath.
Who designed this vest? It's really beautiful. With a few small buttons of different colors fastened, it perfectly shows off the waistline.
Find a pair of white sneakers with a stiletto heel, stand in front of the full-length mirror, and you'll look graceful and elegant—a true fairy.
Looking at my face again, it was fair with a rosy glow, my eyes were big and bright, my eyelashes were thick and long, and my lips were pink and tender.
Forget foundation, loose powder, lipstick, and eye makeup. Just grab a lip balm, apply it, and you'll smell nice and shiny. Perfect!
Yan Xiaonan, who was admiring herself in the mirror, had no idea that Ye Chenming was doing the same thing.
A black suit won't do; it's not like we're having a meeting. A white suit would be too plain.
A Tang suit? Forget it, it's a proposal, not a wedding. Besides, this Tang suit is Grandma's life's work, and it has to be worn on the most formal occasion.
A wool sweater isn't formal enough, a shirt is too casual, and a sweatshirt would make Nan Nan resent it for life.
He rummaged through the clothes in the closet one by one, and just when he was about to be disappointed, Ye Chenming saw a piece of clothing.
The navy blue cashmere coat, the thin and fitted kind, made Ye Chenming nod in satisfaction. "You're the one."
He went into the bathroom, took a quick shower, and then shaved in front of the mirror, always remembering that Nan Nan didn't like men with beards.
With hairspray to fix the jet-black hair, a trendy bun hairstyle appears.
She put on a pink shirt, beige pants, white leather shoes, and then put on that cashmere sweater.
Looking at himself in the mirror, Ye Chenming nodded in satisfaction. He was a man of former glory, with a face as bright as the Mid-Autumn Moon and a complexion as beautiful as a spring flower.
Looking at the sky, the setting sun casts a soft glow, and the shadows slant westward; it's the most beautiful time of day.
He picked up a mahogany box, strode out, started the car, and drove towards the courtyard house.
Yan Aidang watched as a black figure sped towards them, pursed his lips, and lit a firecracker. Ye Chen'er quickly pulled Yan Xiaonan out of the room.
Everyone was waiting in the back, waiting for the most beautiful scene to appear.
As the evening glow dappled the sky and the sun slowly sank below the horizon, Ye Chenming walked in carrying a large bouquet of roses.
In the warm glow of the setting sun, the shadows of the handsome man and the beautiful woman overlapped. Ye Chenming opened the box, took out a military medal, and knelt down on one knee in front of Yan Xiaonan.
"I promised you back then that I would propose to you with my military medals, and I did it. Half of the medals belong to me, but the other half belongs to you."
Yan Xiaonan accepted the medal, and the words "Second Class Merit" caught her eye. Her eyes welled up with tears. She knew better than anyone how much hard work and sweat Ye Chenming had put in over the years.
The general's medal was placed around Ye Chenming's neck, and he said firmly, "The honor belongs to you, and it belongs to me. We must both strive hard."
Ye Chenming smiled, took out a sparkling diamond ring, slipped it onto Yan Xiaonan's finger, and said affectionately:
"Nan Nan, I won't say 'until the seas dry up and the rocks crumble,' nor 'the sky falls and the earth cracks.' I just want to tell you that as long as I have you, I will go to the ends of the earth with you. Marry me, and let's spend the rest of our lives together."
Yan Xiaonan looked at the ring on her finger, nodded firmly, then took the rose and took a deep sniff. It smelled so good.
Applause rang out, and Ye Chenming stood up and bowed to everyone in gratitude.
Liu Jin jumped out: "Uncle, hurry up and give out the candy!"
Ye Chenming patted Liu Jin's head and said, "Go get it from the car yourself, there's a big box."
Liu Jin cheered and ran out, opened the car door, and sure enough, there was a big box. He struggled to carry it out.
Grandma Yan watched this scene with a smile on her face. In just over ten days, her precious child would become someone else's wife.
Thinking of this, Grandma Yan immediately became unhappy. Her carefully nurtured little cabbage had been eaten by a pig.
Although this pig is very good-looking and excellent, my own little bok choy is even better looking and whiter.
Cuihua and Yan Xiaoqiang thought the same way, but they couldn't keep their daughter; keeping her would only lead to enmity.
Yan Ai is very good at reading people's expressions. Today's proposal ceremony went very smoothly and was very romantic. How about we go to the club to celebrate?
Everyone applauded, partly because they could enjoy a good meal, and partly because they could see how the wedding venue was decorated.
Old Man Chen and his wife were confused, especially when Ye Chenming knelt down, they were both startled.
Is there something wrong with this man? What kind of man kneels before a woman? Nan Nan is really something, why didn't she help him up?
And what is that military badge? And why is that ring so shiny? Isn't it gold?
And isn't it true that you have to bring one flower to a wedding? Why would a man bring so many flowers?
With so many questions unanswered, he anxiously grabbed Cuihua and asked, "Cuihua, was that your son-in-law? Are you married already?"
Cuihua was stunned for a moment before realizing that her parents had never seen a marriage proposal ceremony in their hometown, and it was actually the first time she had ever seen one herself.
Back then, Yan Xiaoqiang married her with 100 jin of corn and 20 yuan, which was considered a very expensive dowry at the time.
