Chapter 214
"Nan Ye is a very opinionated person. If he doesn't like something, no one can force him to do it. I'm afraid that my good intentions will be wasted."
Lin Nanzhi raised his eyebrows.
This is probably a family inheritance, otherwise why would everyone in their family be like this?
Her brother is like this, her sister is like this, and so is she and Lin Nanxun. Once they make up their minds to do something, they will stick to it and are not easily influenced by what others say. They may listen to what they say at the time, but they will not do it later.
"My parents will be so worried. After all, my brother is about to turn 30, and those people can't sit still anymore."
Lin Nanzhi was talking about the uncles and aunts in the village, as well as the elders of the family.
The older generation thinks that if a man doesn't get married by 20, it's too late, and if a woman doesn't get married by 18, she's an old maid. Then it's not you who will choose others, but others who will choose you. For someone like Lin Nanye, who is almost 30 and doesn't even have a girlfriend, people must have been talking about him behind his back, otherwise Lin's mother wouldn't be in a hurry to arrange a blind date for him.
In those little places of theirs, there are both good and bad things.
The good thing is that the air is fresh, the scenery is beautiful, and the villagers are simple, warm and hospitable. The bad thing is that there are not many entertainment activities in the village to kill time, so gossiping has become the only fun that can relieve boredom.
It would be fine if they were just gossip, but people also like to exaggerate things, with you adding one sentence and me adding another, and as it gets passed around it’s no longer the original gossip.
She estimated that Lin Nanye was rumored to be 30 years old and still didn't want to get married and wanted to be single.
This is "illegal" in rural areas, causing public outrage and everyone will sneer at it. This attitude is not only directed at the gossiper himself, but also at his family. His family will not care about such a few words, but others may not mind.
It is estimated that they will arrive in a few days.
Sympathize with Big Brother for a minute!
But she was not worried. After all, Lin Nanye was still very powerful and would not care about a few words. He would definitely be able to fight back against those uncles and aunts.
What a pity, she couldn't see it, otherwise she would have laughed at it.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help laughing out loud, which made Wen Jiunian a little confused: "What are you laughing at?"
It can’t be Xiaolin Nanye.
Lin Nanzhi shared all her thoughts with Wen Jiunian. After listening to her, Wen Jiunian didn't know what expression he should make for a moment, and finally could only give her a thumbs up.
This is holding a grudge!
But he also holds grudges!
He did not forget how he and Lin Nanzhi had verbally agreed to get engaged. It was because Lin Nanzhi's second aunt introduced the blind date to Lin Nanzhi, otherwise it would not have been his turn. He would have to work hard to win Lin Nanzhi over.
That being said, he wanted to laugh too.
Ding Dong
Lin Nanxuan: [Another one fell through, my parents were very upset, and then Wen Jiunian’s parents called and said they wanted to arrange a wedding banquet for you.]
At the same time, Wen Jiunian's cell phone rang. He saw that the caller ID showed "Mom". His eyes fell on the screen of Lin Nanzhi's cell phone, and there was a smile in his eyes.
He picked up the phone, but because he was still recording the show, he didn't turn on the speaker, but placed it between the two of them. Lin Nan was very perceptive and could hear it clearly.
"Hey, Mom, what's up?"
"Nothing, I just discussed it with your dad. The last time Zhizhi came over, he didn't come into the house because it was your grandma's birthday, and he also forgot to give the red envelope for the meeting, so I thought about holding an engagement party for you.
Your father agrees, your grandparents agree too, and we have also discussed it with Zhizhi's parents, and they want to ask for your opinions."
Hearing this, Lin Nanzhi's phone rang. She glanced at Wen Jiunian, indicating that she was leaving, so she took her phone to the balcony and called her mother.
"Squeak, where are you?"
"In Dongyang."
"Why did you go there?"
"Come visit the set!"
"With Xiaonian?"
Lin Nanzhi nodded: "Yes, what's wrong?"
"Nothing, his parents just told us that they want to hold an engagement party for you guys, and I asked you what you think. What do you think?"
Does Lin Nan know?
She thinks it's unnecessary!
After all, engagement is not marriage. It is just a process. The status changes from boyfriend and girlfriend to engaged couple. There is no change. It is also a waste of money.
Of course, the most important thing is that she is a lazy person and is particularly afraid of trouble. For complicated and tedious things like this, there is no need to do it twice if it can be done in one go.
But before she could say anything, Lin's mother said, "I think it's better to get married. You are still young, and there is no need for you two to rush to get married. It is better to get engaged and settle things. Then it won't matter if you and Xiaonian are together in the future, so as to avoid gossips from the village women."
Lin Nanzhi: “…”
Didn’t you ask for my opinion?
"I'll ask him. I don't care anyway. It's quite troublesome after all."
"You find everything troublesome. Just be lazy."
Listening to the call being hung up, Lin Nanzhi: "..."
She curled her lips and returned to the living room. She saw that Wen Jiunian had hung up the phone and was looking at her. When he saw her looking over, he walked over directly and the two of them sat directly on the hanging basket.
"What do you think?"
"I don't really want to." Lin Nan knew what he was asking, so he told the truth.
As she spoke, her eyes fell on the cameraman who was holding it almost to her and Wen Jiunian's faces, but he continued filming. She finally swallowed back what she was about to say. Wen Jiunian didn't care. Anyway, he asked the director not to edit it in later. He would just release it after the two of them announced it.
“But I feel good about it.
You said you didn't want to get married early, but I was afraid that you are so outstanding and there are many outstanding people out there. If I lose you, I will regret it forever, so I have to hold on to you tightly. Boyfriend or girlfriend is not enough, I think being an engaged couple is pretty good.
And my mother's idea is, don't invite too many people, just some relatives and friends to be witnesses, choose the address near your home, and then hold a wedding ceremony at my home, so you won't have any regrets in the future."
I have to say that Mother Wen has considered this very well.
If she married Wen Jiunian, she would indeed be marrying far away. She didn't know how many cities and hundreds of kilometers they would have to cross. She would definitely not be able to do it at home.
While she was thinking, Wen Jiunian was looking at her waiting for the answer. The two of them didn't notice that the photographer's eyes lit up and his mouth opened wide, as if he was frightened.
I’ve eaten a big melon!
I’m shipping them!
Family, who knows! This is so exciting!
The two of them are planning to get married so soon and are even planning to hold an engagement party. This is too fast.
Teacher Wen, it still has to be you!
"If you really don't want to, forget it."
"Forget it, I don't think it's necessary." Lin Nanzhi did not agree because of what Mother Wen and Wen Jiunian said, but insisted on his own opinion.
"It's not that I don't want to get engaged to you, I just think it's too troublesome. You don't know how troublesome it is to hold an engagement party here, especially for you. It will be terrible. Let's just forget it."
She patted Wen Jiunian's shoulder, spoke earnestly, then stood up and went back to the living room to continue working.
Wen Jiunian: “…”
How bad is it?
