Chapter 466 The Marriage is Done
Feng Shuyan was taken aback when she heard this, but then she realized what was going on. "Auntie, can I go back and discuss this with my family tonight?"
The main problem is that my parents don't know you and your uncle are coming to Harbin.
“Okay, okay, any day is fine as long as your parents have time.”
As the saying goes, "One should bow one's head when marrying off a daughter, but bow one's head when taking a wife." If the Sheng family wanted to marry a girl from the Feng family, they naturally had to lower their attitude.
Feng Shuyan's father is Sheng Xi'an's mentor. Just because of this relationship, Sheng Liancheng and his wife have to visit the Feng family.
Not to mention that Sheng Xi'an and Feng Shuyan are dating, so she will definitely be going to the Feng family's house. As for when, it all depends on their convenience.
The group left the restaurant chatting and laughing. Sheng Xiping and the others returned to their hotel, while Sheng Xi'an escorted Feng Shuyan home.
Upon arriving at the Feng family home, Sheng Xi'an naturally went inside to pay his respects to his teacher and his wife for the New Year.
Professor Feng was quite surprised to see Sheng Xi'an. He had said before the Lunar New Year holiday that school would resume after the 15th of the lunar calendar. Why was Sheng Xi'an back so early?
Professor Feng is a typical science and engineering man, focused on academic research but not very knowledgeable about interpersonal relationships. He asked Sheng Xi'an this question directly.
It was Professor Feng's wife, Qiao Hui, who quickly shoved her husband aside to help Sheng Xi'an out of the predicament.
"Xi'an, come in and sit down. When did you get back to Harbin? School hasn't started yet. You're back early. Where are you staying?"
Why did Sheng Xi'an come back early? It's as obvious as a bald man's head, isn't it? If not for his own daughter, then for whom?
Qiao Hui quite liked Sheng Xi'an, always feeling that the boy resembled Professor Feng when he was young.
He may seem dull and clueless, but he is actually a sincere and warm-hearted person with a genuine personality.
So when Qiao Hui learned that her daughter liked Sheng Xi'an, she was very supportive of her daughter and gave her a lot of advice behind the scenes.
"Madam, I've been staying at a hotel for the past few days."
"Well, my parents, brother, and sister-in-law are all here in Harbin. Since school hasn't started yet, I'm spending a few days with them."
Sheng Xi'an entered the room, sat on the sofa, and spoke politely.
"Oh, your parents are here? Look at you, why didn't you say so sooner?"
Your teacher and I are pretty free these days, so we can pick you up from the station and make some arrangements." Upon hearing this, Qiao Hui couldn't help but complain a bit about Sheng Xi'an.
Feng Shuyan quickly pulled her mother aside, and the two whispered a few words to each other. Feng Shuyan even raised her right wrist so that her mother could see the watch.
"Mom, Xi'an's parents want to visit us. Could you suggest a date?" Feng Shuyan asked softly.
"Which day? If you had given me a heads-up, we would have met today!" Qiao Hui glared at her daughter.
"It's already this late, we can't let them come any later, let's do it tomorrow."
I'll ask for a day off from work tomorrow. Your dad's free anyway, so let's have a get-together.
Upon hearing her daughter's account, Qiao Hui immediately understood the Sheng family's purpose in coming.
They've come to see their future daughter-in-law, meet their future in-laws, and discuss the marriage between the two families' children.
This clearly shows how much the Sheng family values marriage, an attitude that greatly pleased Qiao Hui.
It just so happens that the couple also wanted to meet the Sheng family and get to know each other.
The Feng family valued Sheng Xi'an's talent, ability, and character, and did not care about his family background.
With Sheng Xi'an's intelligence and diligence, as long as Professor Feng gives him his full support, Sheng Xi'an's future achievements will certainly be remarkable.
Qiao Hui had already discussed it with her husband. After Sheng Xi'an graduated with his master's degree, they would try their best to help him stay at the university or work in a research institute so that he could stay in Harbin.
With the Feng family backing them up, Sheng Xi'an and Feng Shuyan's future is sure to be bright.
Of course, if the Sheng family is well-off, it would be even better if both families could lend a hand.
Therefore, when Qiao Hui learned that the Sheng family had come to Bingcheng, she immediately decided to meet them the next day.
"Xi'an, did you hear that? My mom said she has time tomorrow and wants my aunt and uncle to come too."
"When you get back later, tell your uncle and aunt, don't forget." Feng Shuyan was very happy and quickly reminded Sheng Xi'an.
Upon hearing this, Sheng Xi'an immediately stood up and thanked his teacher and his wife.
Afterwards, Sheng Xi'an stayed at the Feng family's house for a while before taking her leave.
Back at the hotel, Sheng Xi'an went to her parents' room and chatted with them for a while.
Then he went to his brother and sister-in-law's room, took his two little nephews away, and they slept in the same room with him that night.
On the morning of the ninth day of the first lunar month, the Sheng family, having finished packing, went to the Feng family with gifts.
When the two families met, they were both very polite to each other, and Professor Feng warmly shook Sheng Liancheng's hand.
"Oh, Brother Sheng, I've heard Xi'an mention you two before, and it's great to finally meet you today. Please, please come inside."
Over there, Qiao Hui greeted Zhang Shuzhen and the others with a big smile and invited them into the house.
Feng Shuyan has two younger brothers, one in college and the other in high school. Both of them were at home at the time, so they quickly came out to greet the Sheng family.
The Feng family lived in a welfare house allocated by their work unit. The space inside was not very large, not as big as Chen Ruiqing's house, and the living room was also much smaller.
With so many people from both families, the small living room suddenly felt a bit crowded.
The sofa was too small to fit everyone, so Qiao Hui quickly asked her son to bring over some stools for Sheng Xiping and his wife to sit down.
Then tea was served, along with fruit, melon seeds, and other treats to the guests.
"Professor Feng, we should have visited you long ago."
It is a blessing for Shian to receive your guidance, and our whole family is extremely grateful.
