The easiest way is to get them engaged during their stay, and then decide whether to hold the wedding during the May Day or National Day holidays.
Wu Bingzhong did have this idea, but he couldn't bring himself to say it.
Who proposes marriage in the morning and then demands an engagement by the afternoon? What will the Sheng family think?
Therefore, Liu Changde's words truly struck a chord with Wu Bingzhong.
"Brother Liu, we're happy about it, but the key is what our in-laws think."
"They've raised their daughter for over twenty years, painstakingly nurturing her into a college student. Wouldn't they want her to stay home a few more years? Could they bear to let her marry so young?"
Wu Bingzhong looked at Sheng Liancheng and asked tentatively.
Sheng Liancheng was really reluctant to part with it, but he couldn't bring himself to say it in front of everyone.
"Brother Liu, in-laws, it's not easy for our families to get together during the New Year. Come, come, let me toast you all."
Sheng Liancheng couldn't refuse directly, so he raised his glass and toasted the group.
Upon seeing this, Liu Changde and Wu Bingzhong understood immediately. Without saying a word, they each raised their wine glasses and clinked them together with Sheng Liancheng.
"Yes, yes, it's the New Year, it's rare to get together like this, let's drink to our hearts' content." Everyone's cup was half full of wine, and they drank it all in one gulp.
"Uncle, Master, here's the thing: tomorrow, the second and third brothers, as well as the fourth and fifth brothers, all have to go back to work."
My uncle understands that government employees are not free, and it's good enough if they can get leave to come back for the New Year; they can't afford to miss work.
Furthermore, the tickets were all booked in advance, and if I cancel them at the last minute, especially during the Chinese New Year, it will be difficult to buy new tickets.
Sheng Xiping was also at the table. He picked up a wine bottle and poured wine for the elders while explaining the situation.
"If you ask me, how about this?"
In a couple of days, Yucheng and I will have to go to Heihe, around mid-to-late April, during the period when trade is suspended in Dajiang Kaihua.
Let's pick a date and get engaged in the capital.
"The weather will be warmer then, so let's invite Grandpa Wu over too, let him witness Yucheng's engagement, and make the old man happy. Wouldn't that be great?"
This was the most appropriate solution Sheng Xiping could think of.
Sheng Liancheng is retired and doesn't need to work anymore, so he has time whenever he wants. Sheng Xiping is also free to do business.
We need to give both families some time to prepare; how can we rush into an engagement?
We got engaged around May, and the wedding will be held around October 1st or before the Lunar New Year, which would be perfect.
Upon hearing this, Wu Bingzhong and Sheng Liancheng both thought it was a good idea. "Yes, yes, Xiping's idea is the most thoughtful."
"Yes, we all have work to do, so we can't afford to be late. Besides, we need to prepare ourselves; we can't let Yunfei suffer."
Wu Bingzhong smiled and nodded in agreement.
