Chapter 47 Engagement (1)



After the Shen family saw off the Gu family, they sat down in front of the main hall door.

Zhang Cuihua: "From the attitude of the Gu family today, they really like our Shengbao. Old Man Gu didn't mention that he had arranged a marriage for Gu Ye, and he didn't seem to look down on country people."

Shen Aiguo: "Brother Gu is a straightforward person, not so many twists and turns. At first glance, he is not the type of person who would deceive us, so, you don't have to think too much." Shen Aiguo looked at his old wife with flattery on his face.

Zhang Cuihua: "You've turned your elbow out after drinking. Shengbao is going to get married, not Gu Ye as a son-in-law. The engagement means marriage. After marriage, we won't be able to see Shengbao often, and we won't know if she's been wronged."

"What do you know, old man? Once you drink, you become a good person. Go away and don't disturb me while I'm thinking."

Zhang Cuihua looked disgusted with Shen Aiguo, but she still handed Shen Aiguo water.

The men in the Shen family all listen to their wives at home, and at this time, matters concerning Shen Yuesheng are mainly centered around Zhang Cuihua and Lu Qiuyue.

Zhang Cuihua looked at Lu Qiuyue and said, "Daughter Yue, what do you think about this?"

Lu Qiuyue was as gentle as usual: "Mom, I think the men in the Gu family are all upright, standing like pine trees, sitting like clocks, with firm eyes, and they speak and act in an orderly manner. The old lady speaks appropriately and takes everything into consideration. The little girl is lively and cute. It can be seen that the family style and family training are very good. In addition, Mr. Gu takes care of the old lady in every aspect. He is a good role model."

Lu Qiuyue looked at Shen Jianshan and continued, "So I think Gu Ye is good. Whether it's from the perspective of the person or his family, he is a good son-in-law and grandson-in-law."

Zhang Cuihua nodded after hearing what Lu Qiuyue said, agreeing: "I also think Xiao Gu is good. Apart from his attractive appearance, there is nothing wrong with him."

Shen Jianshan: "She's so beautiful, what should I do if I can't control myself anymore?"

Shen Jianshan muttered secretly, but unfortunately received the cold stares from his wife and mother. Their glares flew at him, and he shut his mouth silently.

He turned to look at his father, and their eyes met: "Dad, take care of your wife, she has led my wife astray."

Shen Aiguo was not to be outdone and fought back: “Why don’t you say that it was your wife who led my wife astray? Your mother used to be so gentle, but now she’s getting more and more vicious.”

…………

The father and son went in and out three times, but still couldn't come to a conclusion.

By the time Zhang Cuihua and Lu Qiuyue had finished discussing, Shen Aiguo and Shen Jianshan had already exchanged glances three hundred times.

Seeing that the two of them had seen it, he quickly approached his wife.

Finally, the family sat together for a meeting, and the final result was that the matter of Du Juanhuan was put to rest, but Gu Ye had an observation period after the engagement, and if Shen Yuesheng was wronged, the engagement would be cancelled.

The younger generations of the Shen family all sat on the sidelines and listened. They had no chance to make any suggestions, but it was obvious that they had no chance, hahahaha.

On the second day, the Gu family came after lunch and brought a lot of things, much more than yesterday.

The Shen family was terrified. Zhang Cuihua asked, "Why did you bring so many things with you?"

Mu Hanqing: "I came in a hurry yesterday, so I didn't put some things away properly. These are all gifts for you, little gadgets."

"And some are for Shengbao. They are getting engaged in two days. These are gifts from me and the old man to them as a gift."

"Xiao Ye told us that he prepared three turns and one ring, as well as a gift of 666. We also gave him a little more. Your pampered granddaughter is a bargain for him. How can his money be enough?"

Zhang Cuihua was shocked. The three turns and one ring were all there, and there was also 666. Gu Ye had never mentioned these, and the Shen family had not mentioned them specifically. They were worried that if Gu Ye could not afford it at that time, the family would have to give him some financial support. She did not expect that so many things were prepared without saying anything.

After being surprised, Zhang Cuihua felt happy. Her precious granddaughter was valued and she would not have to worry about being wronged when she got married.

Zhang Cuihua was happy in her heart, but she still refused: "Isn't this too much?"

Mu Hanqing: "It's not much. I think it's too little, but that brat said he wanted to earn money to marry a wife and didn't let us help. We came here and found out that Shengbao is so outstanding. We were worried that the brat was not worthy of him. He is a dull guy who can't talk and is not likable. We thought of preparing more betrothal gifts, but he didn't want them."

Gu Ye looked at his own grandmother and heard her say that he was not worthy of her. His face was calm as water, but his heart was in turmoil. She was still slandering him at this critical moment.

After the two families discussed the engagement of Gu Ye and Shen Yuesheng, it was time for lunch.

Gu Ye and Shen Yuesheng cooked the meal, which included steamed rice and white flour buns. Using the goose that Gu Ye bought on the black market, Shen Yuesheng quietly put a few ginseng whiskers when stewing the goose. . Then I washed a lot of vegetables to prepare for hot pot.

Shen Yuesheng had seen hot pot in modern times, but it took him a long time to find Gu Ye to buy a pot specifically for him. It happened that there were many people and the weather was cool, which was suitable for eating hot pot.

The Shen family had eaten the simple version of hot pot before and were not very surprised, but it was the first time for the Gu family to see such a strange pot and such a strange way of eating.

With the delicious goose soup as the base and Shen Yuesheng's special dipping sauce, the Gu family members almost swallowed their tongues while eating.

While eating, Mr. Gu praised: "The soup is delicious, the meat is firm, the vegetables are tasty, and the dipping sauce is really delicious."

"Hahahaha!" Everyone burst into laughter when they heard this.

The meal was a great pleasure for both the host and the guests.

Everything has been finalized, and we are just waiting for the engagement day.
