After watching Wang Meilan and Qin Zhengye go in, Su Wan showed a sly smile on her face.
I said to the air: "I wish you two a pleasant meal!"
The road at around 6 p.m. was the rush hour for people getting off work, and some were walking, some were riding bicycles, and everyone was hurrying home.
Wang Wenbin, with a beaming look on his face, rode his bicycle through the crowd, pedaling the bike quickly with both legs.
After returning from the hotel at noon today, I quickly told my parents about going to the Qin family to propose marriage.
Factory Director Wang and his employee Zhu Hong were still a little surprised after hearing this.
"Didn't you say that the girl was still planning to take the college entrance exam and didn't want to get engaged to you?"
"Mom, isn't it that Wanwan cares about me? Your son is so handsome, and our family conditions are among the best in the entire Fugou County.
I guess she might be afraid that I won’t have the patience to wait any longer. After all, she still has to work after graduating from college, and her current job is pretty good, so she doesn’t plan to waste that much effort. ”
Zhu Hong snorted coldly, "She's quite sensible. If you hadn't insisted on having her, your father and I might have already become grandpa and grandma."
"Mom, I know you and Dad want to have a grandson. Wanwan and I have already agreed that we will get engaged now and get married in two to three months. We will try to give you a grandson next year, okay?"
When she heard the word "grandson", Zhu Hong quickly turned to Director Wang.
"Dad, why don't you arrange our marriage?"
Director Wang frowned, looked at Wang Wenbin and asked, "I heard that she is the adopted daughter of the Qin family. Do you really like her that much?"
Wang Wenbin nodded vigorously, "Dad, I've been pursuing her for several years, of course I like her. It doesn't matter whether she is an adopted daughter or not. She is marrying into our family, not me marrying into our family. It's up to us to have a good relationship and be filial to you and mom, isn't it?"
After listening to this, Director Wang nodded and said, "Well, you picked this daughter-in-law yourself. You can't rely on me and your mother for anything in the future. You have to think it over and decide for yourself."
Wang Wenbin jumped up from his chair happily, walked up to Zhu Hong, shook her arm and said:
"Mom, did you hear that? My dad has agreed. Since no one objects, why don't we go to the Qin family tomorrow to finalize the marriage?"
Zhu Hong reached out and poked her son on the forehead in annoyance.
"Are you so anxious? Are you afraid that girl will run away or something?"
Wang Wenbin laughed, "Of course, she is so pretty, and there are a lot of people chasing after her. I have been keeping a close eye on her these years, otherwise she would have been kidnapped long ago."
"Engagement is a big deal, not a joke. Let me find someone to pick a good day for you," Wang Meilan said unhappily.
"Mom, my dear mother, I can't wait for your dear son any longer. How about this? You take a day off this afternoon. Tell me which master you want to see and I'll go with you. I'll ride and you sit in the back. I promise I won't let you go even for a moment..."
Wang Wenbin used sweet words and persuasion to persuade his mother, and Zhu Hong finally raised her hands in surrender.
As soon as the meal was over, Wang Wenbin rushed to wash the dishes and clean the kitchen, making Zhu Hong so happy that she couldn't close her mouth.
In the afternoon, my mother and I went to the countryside more than ten miles away from the county town to find an old fortune teller who was said to be very accurate.
As soon as he sat down, Wang Wenbin couldn't wait to tell the old man about Su Wan and his boyfriend's birth date, and then the old man took over and asked more questions.
"Mr., which days this month are good for getting engaged?"
"Young man, don't be anxious. Let me take a good look at your horoscope and that girl's horoscope first." The old man said while stroking his white goat beard.
Wang Wenbin's impatient look made 놛 laugh.
I have been young before, and as a man, I naturally understand men's little thoughts.
Wang Wenbin stopped talking after hearing this, and kept staring at the old man's mouth, listening to him muttering some terms that he couldn't understand at all while watching.
After looking at them for a while, the old man pointed at their horoscopes and said something that sounded very professional.
Wang Wenbin didn't understand and said anxiously, "Mr. Lao, can you tell me how many days this month are suitable for engagement? Please help us pick a good one. I plan to get married this month."
"According to your horoscopes, the best day of this month is tomorrow. Tomorrow is auspicious for getting engaged or getting married..."
"Tomorrow?" Wang Wenbin's eyes lit up. "That's great."
After saying that, he turned to Zhu Hong and said, "Mom, you heard me, right? The old man said that tomorrow is the best."
"I heard it. I'm deaf."
Zhu Hong lost her temper immediately when she saw how her son acted so recklessly for a worthless girl.
After that, she put her smile back on her face and said to the old man, "Old man, are you saying that if we get engaged this month, tomorrow will be the best day for us?"
"Yes, although there are still a few good days this month, they are all incompatible with our horoscopes. The best time is tomorrow. If you are not in a hurry, it is actually okay to postpone it to next month. Next month is..."
Before the old man could finish, Wang Wenbin quickly stood up from the stool and interrupted, "Thank you, old man, since tomorrow is a good day, let's choose tomorrow."
After saying that, he pulled his mother out and said, "It's an engagement, I'll go to Qin's house and tell Su Wan when I get back. Tomorrow, the three of us will bring some gifts and betrothal money, and the two families will have a meal together to settle this matter."
"This is a big deal for you, how can you not take it seriously? At least we have to go to the hotel and book a few tables and invite relatives and friends to have fun."
"My dear mother, you know that frugality is the norm nowadays, and there's no point in doing that. Besides, my father is the leader of the cotton mill, so he has to pay more attention to this aspect. If someone sees us and reports us, it would be a loss."
Zhu Hong thought her son's words made sense, but she thought the girl might not agree, so she asked worriedly, "It's so simple, what if the Qin family makes trouble?"
Wang Wenbin suddenly laughed, "Dad is the director of the cotton textile factory, and you are the vice president of the cotton textile factory's labor union. Do you think the Qin family dares to make our family angry?"
Zhu Hong smiled and nodded after hearing this. Why didn't her brain work so well at the critical moment?
Yes, the Qin family has been trying to curry favor with our Wang family for a long time, so how dare we pick a fight? Even if we did, it would be done behind our backs, so we certainly wouldn't dare to do it in front of them.
Come to think of it, there's really nothing to worry about, so let's do as my son says, tomorrow or tomorrow.
Tomorrow you will come out with your things. If our Qin family is smart, they should prepare a table of delicious food at home to entertain you.
After getting Zhu Hong's agreement, Wang Wenbin ran to the cotton spinning factory as soon as he got home and told his father, the factory director, the good news.
My son and wife both agreed, 2:1. If they disagree, there is no point.
So as soon as Wang Wenbin came out of the cotton spinning factory, he rode his bicycle hurriedly to the Qin family.
We have to tell Su Wan the good news as soon as possible. It's really too hasty, so we have to inform the Qin family. We will come to the Qin family tomorrow to get engaged.
When passing the entrance of the state-owned hotel, Wang Wenbin saw Su Wan who was about to enter the hotel.
"Wan Wan"
Su Wan turned around and saw that it was Wang Wenbin. She stopped reluctantly. Why did she encounter this thing every time she went out? She was so regretful.
"Wanwan, come on, come with me to your house. My parents have agreed. I'll come to your house to propose marriage tomorrow." Wang Wenbin patted the back seat of the car and motioned for Su Wan to sit down.
"real?"
When Su Wan heard that someone was going to propose marriage to her, she was immediately delighted and her eyes sparkled with stars.
