Jiang Ning chuckled at his words, "Yes, I agree."
Upon hearing this, Shen Jingnian breathed a sigh of relief.
Good that you agree.
"The date is set for next Saturday, remember to prepare accordingly," Jiang Ning continued.
Shen Jingnian nodded slightly, "Okay, I promise I'll do my best on Saturday and won't embarrass you! I'll try my best to get my license and start working as soon as possible!"
Over the past four years, he has learned all the preferences of Jiang Ning's family through her.
Therefore, Shen Jingnian was quite at ease about visiting his parents on Saturday.
Jiang Ning continued, "By the way, my maternal grandmother and my uncles are also coming on Saturday."
? ? ?
What? ? ?
Shen Jingnian was dumbfounded. "Eight, all eight uncles are coming?"
Those were eight uncles!
The fact that the first meeting with the parents was so exciting made Shen Jingnian a little flustered.
After all, Shen Jingnian was incredibly nervous when she first met Si Xubei alone.
“No.” Jiang Ning shook her head.
Hearing this, Shen Jingnian breathed a sigh of relief.
It would be good if not all eight uncles came.
Jiang Ning continued, "My eight aunts and thirteen brothers will also be coming."
!!! !!! !!! !!!
Shen Jingnian felt as if the sky had fallen.
Although he would have to see the Si family's relatives sooner or later.
To see so many people on the first meeting... This was something Shen Jingnian hadn't expected.
He thought that he would first meet Shi's parents and grandparents, and then go to Hong Kong with Jiang Ning to visit Mrs. Si and the Si family's uncles and aunts.
The last time I saw Si Xubei, he got Si Xubei completely drunk by himself. With so many people coming this time, how drunk will he be?
Shen Jingnian never wanted to sing in public again.
"Leader, leader." Shen Jingnian looked at Jiang Ning, "You're not kidding me, are you?"
"I'm not kidding. When my grandma heard that I was going to take you home to meet my parents, she insisted on bringing my uncles and aunts over to see what they think of you! So, you'd better behave well on Saturday."
“Okay.” Shen Jingnian nodded slightly and took Jiang Ning’s hand. “Boss, remember to speak up for me when the time comes. You can’t just watch me fight this battle alone.”
"Don't worry," Jiang Ning looked at Shen Jingnian, "I will act according to the circumstances."
Upon hearing this, Shen Jingnian finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Over the next few days, Shen Jingnian prepared for his visit to meet his parents.
For a first visit, it's essential to be well-prepared.
Friday morning.
Old Mrs. Si and all eight of Si's uncles and aunts arrived in the capital.
Jiang Ning and her parents went to the airport to pick her up.
"Grandma! Uncle and Aunt!"
"Sheng Bao!"
Grandma Si was overjoyed to see Jiang Ning and quickly jogged over.
The grandfather and grandson embraced each other excitedly.
Shi Nanxing quickly had his assistant take the luggage from his brothers-in-law.
Si Huashang walked with her sisters-in-law.
Zhao Yanan said with a smile, "Hua Chang, we've all seen Sheng Bao's proposal video. Shen Jingnian is indeed quite good-looking, and he's a good match for our Sheng Bao."
Chu Mengli said, "The main reason is that he said he could marry into the family. In today's society, there aren't many men who are powerful, wealthy, and willing to marry into the family."
Ma Han then added, "Our Xu Bei has met Sheng Bao's boyfriend. He said the guy's character is actually pretty good. I also heard that Xu Bei got him drunk on their first meeting to test his character!"
"And then? Did he hit someone after he got drunk?" Xue Yingxiang asked immediately.
Zhao Yunong, Sun Jiaqi, and the other sisters-in-law all looked at Ma Han with curiosity upon hearing this.
A person's drinking habits reflect their character. If someone like Shen Jingnian hits people when drunk, you shouldn't have a boyfriend like that.
Ma Han shook his head. "I didn't hit anyone. I can't help but laugh when I think about it. Xu Bei told me that after he got drunk, he turned the table into a concert hall and sang several children's songs! Oh, and Xu Bei even recorded a video. I'll find it and show it to you."
Jiang Ning, who was walking behind, felt a little embarrassed when she heard this.
I thought she was the only one who recorded the video, but I didn't expect Si Xubei to record it too.
After seeing the video, the sisters-in-law burst into laughter.
Zhou Ruoying laughed until tears streamed down her face, "I never expected this child to be so funny!"
"......"
The group boarded the car, chatting and laughing.
In the afternoon, shortly after Old Mrs. Si and her uncles and aunts arrived, Si's thirteen older brothers also arrived.
Fortunately, the Shi family manor is very large.
Otherwise, with nearly thirty people, there really wouldn't be enough room for everyone.
In the evening, Shi Nanxing arranged for a bonfire dinner at the Shi family manor. The two families gathered together to eat, chat, and have a barbecue, enjoying themselves immensely.
Saturday arrived in the blink of an eye.
The days when Shen Jingnian would visit his parents.
Not only was Shen Jingnian nervous, but even Old Madam Shen was very nervous. Seeing that Shen Jingnian was about to leave, she said, "Jingnian, wait a moment. Let me see if your clothes are appropriate today?"
Chen Jingnian stopped walking.
Today he was wearing a handmade, custom-made suit. He was already a tall and handsome man, and with a little tidying up, he exuded an aura of power!
Grandma Shen walked over and straightened his collar. "I hope that next time you go to our house, it will be for the engagement. You must do your best today. I've even prepared your engagement clothes. You can't let me down."
"Don't worry, Mom, I will."
"Alright," Grandma Shen patted Shen Jingnian on the shoulder, "The clothes are all packed. Keep it up."
Shen Jingnian nodded slightly, then turned and left.
On the other side.
The Shi family's reception room.
The three elders of the family, Mrs. Si and Mrs. Shi, and Mr. Jiang, sat in the main seats in the living room.
It is said that maternal uncles are the most important relatives, so Jiang Ning's eight maternal uncles and aunts sat on either side, followed by Shi Nanxing and Si Huashang, and then the seats for the thirteen younger relatives.
Si Xudong's wife, Li Jia, also came with their son, Si Zuxin.
Si Zuxin is five years old this year, a time when he is curious about everything. The little guy nestled in his mother's arms and asked curiously, "Mommy, why isn't Auntie's boyfriend here yet?"
"Don't worry, we'll be there soon."
As luck would have it, just as Li Jia finished speaking, Jiang Ning received a WeChat message from Shen Jingnian. After reading the message, she said, "Grandpa, Grandma, Grandma, Mom, Dad, Uncle and Aunt, Shen Jingnian has arrived and is at the door. I'll go meet him."
Grandma Si nodded. "Go ahead."
Watching Jiang Ning's retreating figure, for some reason, Si Huawen became nervous first. He turned to Zhao Yunong and asked, "Yunong, do you think I look alright today?"
“It’s definitely possible,” Zhao Yunong said with a smile. “But you can’t keep a straight face after Xiao Shen comes in, or you’ll scare him.”
Si Huawen snorted coldly, "If he were so easily intimidated, what right would he have to marry our Shengbao?"
Women are always the weaker party in marriage. The reason why these uncles traveled all over the world to Beijing was to promote their eldest niece.
After all, she's their only niece.
They wanted to let Shen Jingnian know that they were Jiang Ning's support!
