Chapter 41 Talking about Engagement



Time has slowly passed to 1977. Shen Yuesheng and his family have been preparing for review seriously since last year. She secretly said that reading more is good for you, and that she had a dream that the college entrance examination will be resumed in the future. Everyone in the Shen family listened to Shen Yuesheng and started their review.

Gu Ye has been in Shenjia Village for almost two years. Although he has not been dating Shen Yuesheng for a long time, he has already decided on Shen Yuesheng.

Although he had already told Shen Yuesheng about the engagement, he had not yet been to the Shen family.

Gu Ye was well prepared and went to Shen's house with the things he had bought a long time ago.

When Gu Ye first came to the door, the Shen family was very confused as to why he brought so many things with him. They did not consider that he was here to discuss an engagement.

"Grandma Shen, Grandpa Shen, Uncle Shen, Auntie, Xiao Wu, Xiao Lin." Gu Ye greeted them one by one.

"Today I have an unwelcome request, I hope you can agree."

Gu Ye spoke sincerely, and stood in front of the Shen family with high spirits.

The men in the Shen family were a little slow, but Zhang Cuihua and Lu Qiuyue had already reacted.

Gu Ye should have come to propose marriage.

Zhang Cuihua was the first to speak: "Let's see what kind of unreasonable request it is first!"

Gu Ye felt a little nervous when he heard this, but he still answered Zhang Cuihua's question.

"I want to spend the rest of my life with Shengbao. I hope Grandma Shen and Grandpa Shen will agree."

Zhang Cuihua: "As long as Shengbao likes it, we can accept it."

As soon as Shen Jianshan said this, he wanted to refute, but was stopped by Zhang Cuihua with a look.

"But what if we want you to marry into our family?" Would you like to? ”

As soon as Zhang Cuihua finished speaking, Gu Ye replied: "I am willing, as long as I can be with Shengbao."

Seeing that Gu Ye looked serious and judging from his performance over the past period, he was a rare candidate, Zhang Cuihua did not say much.

"But I've passed this test, but you still have many more to pass?"

At this time, Lu Qiuyue looked at Gu Ye with a smile: "Xiao Gu, who will wash the dishes at home from now on?"

Gu Ye: "I cook, I wash dishes, I do laundry."

Shen Jianshan: "Who will manage the money in the family from now on?"

Gu Ye: "Sheng Bao is in charge. I make the money and she spends it."

The Shen family blocked Gu Ye at the door and questioned him for a long time, until Shen Yuesheng and Zhang Cuihua were about to fall asleep in the main hall, and then they let him in.

In fact, as soon as Gu Ye came to Zhang Cuihua and asked her questions, Shen Yuesheng was about to leave, but was stopped by Zhang Cuihua who came in.

"Shengbao, let your grandfather and the others test you and establish your authority. It's okay."

Seeing that everyone's expressions were normal, Shen Yuesheng and Zhang Cuihua went into the house, ignoring the people outside.

Little did they know how many strange problems Gu Ye encountered, such as

What if his feet smell, but he is too sleepy to wash them but still wants to go to bed?

What if they quarreled but it was Shen Yuesheng's fault?

What if Shen Yuesheng doesn’t want to have children in the future or doesn’t want to bring them up after having them?

…………

When Gu Ye came in, he saw Shen Yuesheng looking at him eagerly, with worry in her eyes.

Gu Ye showed his pretty little girl a charming smile: "Grandpa and the others didn't make things difficult for me, don't worry."

As Gu Ye came in, everyone looked unhappy: "..."

Shen Yuesheng used his eyes to explain to Gu Ye: "It's all your fault. I won't pay attention to you anymore."

Gu Ye responded with his eyes: "I was wrong, I'm not angry, you can do whatever you want."

Shen Yuesheng: "No, I won't talk to you tonight"

The Shen family looked at the eye contact between the two and did not interrupt, but just looked at Shen Yuesheng lovingly.

Gu Ye also chuckled, and Shen Yuesheng then realized that their actions had been seen by their family members, and her face turned red with embarrassment.

Zhang Cuihua also came to her granddaughter's rescue: "Today is a good day for Xiao Gu to come and propose marriage."

"Ahem~ Ahem~" Zhang Cuihua cleared her throat and continued: "We have all witnessed what Xiao Gu has done in the past few months, so I don't object to this marriage. Does anyone have a different opinion?"

After Zhang Cuihua finished speaking, she looked around and saw everyone's faces.

Except for Shen Jianshan who had a sour face and looked unhappy, everyone else was in high spirits.

At this time, Shen Aiguo asked the key question: "Xiao Gu, when do you plan to get married?"

"Grandpa, Shengbao is only 16 years old. I want to wait until Shengbao's 18th birthday."

Shen Aiguo was very satisfied with the answer from his son-in-law and nodded.

After a series of discussions, the engagement party was scheduled for July 7th.

No one in the Shen family asked about the bride price, but Gu Ye knew that this matter had to be mentioned.

“Grandpa Shen, Grandma Shen, I have prepared three turns and one ring for the betrothal gifts, and the furniture is already being made. It should all be ready when the new house is built.”

"And then add 888 yuan as a gift and prepare five sets of clothes for Shengbao."

Zhang Cuihua was shocked when she heard this: "Xiao Gu, have you discussed this with your grandfather?"

“Grandma Shen, my grandfather said that I can make the decision myself, and it’s all my own money.”

When the Shen family heard that they could earn so much money in just two years, they were worried that Gu Ye might be doing some shady business.

Zhang Cuihua: "Xiao Gu, tell me honestly, is your business illegal?"

“Don’t worry, Grandma Shen, I can’t tell you in detail, but it’s definitely not illegal.”

When everyone heard this, they were relieved, but they still had some doubts. I saw that Gu Ye had a determined look, so everyone didn't dwell on it too much.

Gu Ye discussed the engagement details at Shen's house, including the time, the banquet, the people to be invited and so on.
