He Yuhan was delighted by Han Yixian's flattery, and gave him a reproachful look, saying, "You're just good at sweet talk."
Han Yixian suddenly became serious and said, "These are not sweet words; they are my true feelings. Heaven and earth can bear witness."
He Yuhan patted Han Yixian and laughed, "Stop joking around. Aren't you cold here? We should go home."
Han Yixian said happily, "I'm so excited right now, my whole body is hot, and my heart is even hotter. But we really need to hurry home, I need to tell my father-in-law and mother-in-law that you accepted my proposal."
I need their permission; we'll get married tomorrow, when spring begins. We need to start preparing now; I want to give you a grand wedding.
He Yuhan quickly stopped Han Yixian's daydreams, saying, "There's no need to rush. The New Year is just around the corner. Wouldn't it be too hasty to talk about it next spring? We should wait until my father has fully recovered before making any plans."
Han Yixian quickly nodded and said, "You're right. We'll hold the wedding after your father-in-law is fully recovered. But we can choose a date first and start preparing. We need to prepare the wedding venue, the people we'll invite, your clothes, and so on. This will take time, and by then I think your father-in-law will be fully recovered."
He Yuhan looked at Han Yixian's anxious expression and said, "Brother Han, I know what you mean. But I don't want a grand wedding. In the current situation, we shouldn't be too ostentatious. It's not good for you, and I don't want to attract too much attention."
Let's just invite a few close friends and family members to celebrate the wedding. We don't need to invite casual friends.
Han Yixian said, "We're getting married once in our lives, and I want to give you a grand and unforgettable wedding. Yuhan, I have the ability to do this, and this is what I've always hoped for."
He Yuhan said, "I know you have the ability, but in this year when many people are struggling to get enough to eat, we're holding a lavish banquet. Won't that give people something to talk about?"
That will inevitably attract some attention. Don't forget your position; it's not good for you.
My online space should also avoid being too ostentatious or attracting attention. It's best to keep a low profile and avoid drawing attention to yourself.
Your kindness to me is more important than anything else; the wedding is just a formality. Wouldn't it be more meaningful for us to live our own lives well and quietly make a fortune?
Han Yixian smiled and exclaimed, "I am so lucky to have married such an understanding girl who is so considerate of me."
You're right. Keeping your private space a secret is the most important thing. Let's go back and discuss the wedding arrangements with your parents and see what they think.
The wedding can't be too shabby, and I can't let you feel wronged. Otherwise, your parents-in-law will have a problem with me.
He Yuhan said, "I will explain it to my parents. They understand the current situation and will definitely support my position."
We have a long life ahead of us; they won't hold these things against us.
Han Yixian felt incredibly fortunate. Every woman makes demands when she gets married, but his fiancée, fearing criticism, insisted on keeping things low-key. He was so lucky to have met such an understanding girl.
Han Yixian didn't linger any longer. He took He Yuhan's hand and drove back home the way they came.
While in the car, He Yuhan took out all the New Year's goods she had prepared and put them in the car.
The two arrived home quickly and brought their belongings inside.
Yu Huiru saw that the two of them had brought back so many things after going out, so she assumed they had gone to buy New Year's goods.
Looking at the pile of New Year's goods on the living room floor, Yu Huiru said, "How did you get so much stuff? Are there many people buying New Year's goods? Every year we have to squeeze in to buy New Year's goods. If you can, I'll go help too."
He Yuhan said, "Mom, there's no need for you to squeeze in with a bunch of people to buy New Year's goods. Brother Han and I have connections, so getting these things won't be a problem. You can just stay home and keep Dad company."
Han Yi first put the things that had been brought in on the ground and tidied them up, saying, "Yes, Auntie, Yuhan and I are taking care of preparing the New Year's goods, so you don't need to worry. You can just stay home and look after the children and keep Uncle company."
Han Yixian quickly took the items that needed to be frozen and put them in the large vats prepared outside to freeze, and also put the grains into the storage room. He placed the pastries on the cabinet in the living room so that everyone could eat them at any time.
After packing up everything they had brought back, Han Yixian led He Yuhan to He Chenglin and his wife and said, "Uncle, Aunt, Yuhan has accepted my marriage proposal today. We want to hold the wedding after you have fully recovered, Uncle. I would like to ask for your permission. Please allow Yuhan to marry me."
After hearing Han Yixian's words, He Chenglin and his wife exchanged a glance and said, "Yuhan, you've already made up your mind."
He Yuhan nodded and said, "Since Brother Han and I have already decided on each other, there's no need to waste any more time. Besides, we have many things to do together in the future, and getting married will make things more convenient. It will also prevent others from gossiping."
He Chenglin and his wife are both happy that their daughter is willing to get married and no longer wants to be single, and reluctant to part with her as she is about to become someone else's family.
But they knew their daughter must have thought this through carefully.
He Chenglin had even more on his mind; he had long suspected that his daughter had many secrets.
Take the special "medicine" used to treat his tuberculosis, for example. He knew a little about it; it had only recently been developed abroad and was still very rare, even rarer in China. Yet, his daughter was able to get the medicine out immediately after learning that he had tuberculosis. This was something that no ordinary person could do.
He also sensed that his daughter and Han Yixian were definitely up to something big. Since they trusted each other so much, getting married as soon as possible was the best course of action. Once married, they could be together long-term, and no one would gossip.
He Chenglin said, "Since you've made up your mind, we, as your parents, support you. When do you plan to hold the wedding? I'd like to hear your plans."
Han Yixian said, "Uncle, we wanted to wait until you were fully recovered before holding the wedding. I originally wanted to give Yuhan a grand and lively wedding, but Yuhan said she wanted everything to be simple. Please persuade her; marriage is a once-in-a-lifetime event, and I don't want to leave Yuhan with any regrets."
Besides, I have the ability, and I believe no one can say anything about it.
He Yuhan quickly explained, "Dad, I don't care whether the wedding is grand or not. I think it's not appropriate for Brother Han and our family to be too ostentatious right now. In these times of year, many people are still starving and freezing, and if we hold a big wedding, people will inevitably have something to say about us. I think it's better for us to keep a low profile."
