Chapter 539, Success
"What's the matter, wife?" After drinking some wine, He Zhengnan was very happy.
An Cheng also looked confused. He glanced at Shuangshuang, and when he saw her shaking her head, he looked at his mother.
"Mom, what's going on?"
"It's like this. I plan to get you and Shuangshuang engaged in the next few days. As you know, your aunt Meilian and the others are in Kyoto. Now that the engagement party is gathered, there's no need to trouble them to make another trip."
Aunt Lanhua told An Cheng what she had discussed with Grandma He.
Of course, she did not forget to ask Shuangshuang for her opinion, "Shuangshuang, what do you think?" When asking this question, Aunt Lanhua became nervous, which was unusual for her.
Zhou Shuangshuang was confused. Aunt Lan went out today just for this?
She was a little confused.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Aunt Lanhua became anxious, "Shuangshuang, it's not that Aunt Lan disrespects you, but I didn't ask for your opinion first. You may not understand the situation in our family very well." So she talked about the origin of her family again.
After listening to this, Zhou Shuangshuang also realized the importance of Grandma He.
I only knew that she arranged a blind date for the uncle before, but I didn’t expect it to be like this.
"Auntie Lan, that's not what I meant. I have no objection to getting engaged, but don't you really mind my family situation?" She cared a lot about this.
Sometimes she thought about the relationship between her and the uncle, and always felt that it was not very realistic.
She knew her situation very well, and because of that, she felt that she was not worthy of him.
After An Cheng heard what she said, he held her hand tightly and said, "Shuangshuang, don't let your imagination run wild. Our family is not the kind of family that seeks to curry favor with the rich and powerful. I like you very much. No, I should say that I love you. I don't know when I fell in love with you."
He Ancheng was also the first person to confess his love in front of his parents.
However, his behavior made Aunt Lanhua and He Zhengnan very satisfied.
They watched silently without saying anything.
I don’t want to put pressure on Shuangshuang.
It is true that they are from the countryside, but after getting to know them more over the years, I have learned that they are also very considerate of others.
"Uncle." After hearing An Cheng's words, Zhou Shuangshuang cried, "That's not what I meant. I always feel that I am not worthy of you, woo woo."
Seeing her so frightened, An Cheng felt very sad. He ignored her feelings.
"What are you talking about?" Aunt Lanhua was unhappy. "Shuangshuang, why are you worried about this? If you are really worried, how about we recognize you as our goddaughter and kick Ancheng out of the house?"
Of course, this was said as a joke, just to appease Zhou Shuangshuang, but Aunt Lanhua's words also proved her position in their family's hearts.
"Mom, am I still my biological child?" An Cheng has always felt that he was adopted since he was a child.
"No, I picked it up in the back mountain." This time it was not Aunt Lanhua who spoke, but the taciturn He Zhengnan.
After he finished speaking, he did not forget to mutter to his wife, "If we had known he would be like this, we would have better not given birth to him, and you would not have suffered so much."
Well, it was just murmuring, but the sound was quite loud and everyone in the living room heard it.
Zhou Shuangshuang couldn't hold back her laughter any longer.
"So, uncle and Aunt Lan dislike you so much." Zhou Shuangshuang was very open-minded, and the sadness just now quickly dissipated.
"How dare you say that? It's all your fault. Look, they don't want me anymore." An Cheng felt so aggrieved.
"It's okay. I'll need you later."
The two of them made love for a while.
The engagement was finally settled.
The next day, Aunt Lanhua, He Zhengnan and Zhou Shuangshuang went to He's house.
As soon as she arrived at the He family, Zhou Shuangshuang was dumbfounded.
The He family actually lives here. You know, the people living here are either officials or wealthy people.
And she can own such a big yard, she...
"Don't be nervous, your third grandma is the easiest to get along with." Seeing Shuangshuang was nervous, Aunt Lanhua held her hand and spoke to her softly.
How could Zhou Shuangshuang be appeased? "Auntie Lan."
"It's okay. It's okay."
I got up really early today and even got up to have breakfast with everyone.
Look, after finishing her meal, she was walking in the yard. When she heard someone knocking on the door, she ran over to open it.
As soon as the door opened, Hua smiled: "Aunt Lan, Uncle Zhengnan."
"Oh, yes, why did you get up so early today? Where are your mother and the others? Why aren't they with you?" Aunt Lanhua saw someone coming to open the door, and immediately stepped forward to support her.
My stomach looks different every day.
Zhou Shuangshuang was also a perceptive person, so he stepped forward to help.
"Grandma Lan, Grandpa Zhengnan." She called to the two with a happy face, "I'm fine, the doctor told me to move more." She had finally made up for what she had lacked before, and now she is in good health.
"This must be Uncle An Cheng's girlfriend, she's so beautiful." Hua looked at Zhou Shuangshuang who was supporting him, and immediately smiled and joked.
"Yes, Ancheng's girlfriend is beautiful, right? Haha, my Shuangshuang is even more pretty." Aunt Lanhua is not modest at all.
"Well, it's very beautiful. Uncle An Cheng has good taste." He agreed very much.
"Auntie Lan." No matter how straightforward Zhou Shuangshuang is, she is still a girl, so how can she not be shy.
"Okay, okay, okay, I won't say any more. Our beauty is known only to ourselves."
He walked towards the hall while joking.
When I arrived, I saw an old man sitting in the main hall. He had a head full of white hair, but he looked very energetic.
At first glance, she looks like a healthy old lady.
Zhou Shuangshuang became nervous again and tightened her hands unnaturally, which was noticed by Hua.
Holding her hand, Hua said, "Don't be afraid, Madam is very easy to talk to." Because she is a generation younger than An Cheng, Hua directly regards Zhou Shuangshuang as her elder.
Aunt Lanhua and He Zhengnan also noticed this, and they looked at each other and smiled.
They knew that Shuangshuang was a good girl and could be liked by Aunt San's family.
"This must be An Cheng's daughter-in-law. She's so pretty, but An Cheng doesn't seem worthy of her." As soon as she saw the person, Grandma He's bad mouth came back.
"Grandma, please stop teasing the girl. Don't scare her." Hua's mother stepped forward to stop Grandma He and said with a smile.
"How is that possible? It's not good to be so timid. You need to practice." As if she was really dissatisfied, Grandma He stood up, walked to Zhou Shuangshuang, and looked at her.
She laughed after reading it.
"The little girl has clear eyes and regular facial features. You can tell at first glance that she's a good girl. Also, her butt is big enough, so she will definitely give birth to a daughter in the future." Grandma He has an old habit. She always likes to look at people like this.
Hua looked at Zhou Shuangshuang with an embarrassed look on her face and said, "I'm sorry, the lady is just like that. She didn't mean any bad things." She was afraid that Zhou Shuangshuang would think too much.
Zhou Shuangshuang shook her head. She was really embarrassed, but there was no need to argue with an old man. Besides, she didn’t say that she was bad.
People should be content.
"Okay, come and sit down. Xiaoxue is still in the kitchen. I'll go call her." Hua's mother came over and helped her daughter sit down, then said to everyone.
Mei Xue certainly knew that someone was coming to her house, but she was preparing lunch at the moment and had no time.
The more Grandma He looked at her, the more satisfied she became. "This girl is so nice, little girl, you should be my great-granddaughter." This was the first person Grandma He liked and wanted to take home.
Hearing her words, Aunt Lanhua and others were shocked.
"Aunt San, are you serious?" Aunt Lanhua said happily.
But He Zhengnan was different. Although he was happy, he knew that if Shuangshuang became the great-grandson of his third aunt, then his relationship with Ancheng would definitely not work out.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Third Aunt was just joking." He Zhengnan immediately stopped Lanhua and said.
Aunt Lanhua may not have reacted for a moment, but Hua understood, "That's right, Grandma Lan, this is not right. If Shuangshuang becomes our sister, how can she marry Uncle Ancheng?"
It seemed as if these words were also spoken to Zhou Shuangshuang.
Zhou Shuangshuang seemed to not understand the generations at this time and looked confused, but she had never thought about adopting a godparent.
The He family looked extraordinary, and she couldn't possibly marry into their family.
"That's right, look at my brain." Aunt Lanhua reacted immediately after hearing what was said.
"I'm so excited, Third Aunt, please think of a solution. This girl is so confused and she even says that she is not worthy of An Cheng. Just tell me, this makes me feel so sad." Aunt Lanhua treated Grandma He as her own mother-in-law.
"Oh, this is easy. Just adopt this girl as your goddaughter and take An Cheng away with you." Well, it's true that people of the same family are alike.
"I do want to, but the girl doesn't like it." Aunt Lanhua said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
After hearing these familiar words, Zhou Shuangshuang felt relieved. "Hello, Third Grandma, I'm fine. I won't think like this again." This was the first time she spoke since she came in.
She was so nervous just now that she forgot all these things.
"That's good. We are all family. There is no need to go around in circles. An Cheng is a good kid. Since he has chosen you, he will definitely not let you down. Listen to grandma's advice. An Cheng is a good kid. You won't lose out if you marry him."
After saying that, Grandma He looked at Zhou Shuangshuang and nodded, "Of course, you're not a bad girl. Even if you don't marry An Cheng, your life won't be too bad." She acted as if she could tell fortunes.
"Haha, of course not. Shuangshuang is a good kid." Aunt Lanhua didn't miss any opportunity to praise her own child for being so free.
In the kitchen, Mei Xue quickly cooked the soup with the help of Hua's mother.
He came over with some snacks.
"Oh, this is An Cheng's wife, she's so beautiful." The first time Mei Xue saw Zhou Shuangshuang, she noticed the clear and bright aura she exuded.
How to say it, there are three kinds of energy in human beings. The first is the black energy. As its name suggests, it is not good at first glance. The second is the clear and bright energy. People with this kind of energy can be divided according to how clear and bright they are.
The girl Zhou Shuangshuang has a very clear-minded temperament. At first glance, she is a good child with a clear mind.
The third is the aura of merit. Such people are rare. Mei Xue hasn’t seen many of them.
"This is your Aunt Meixue. You can call her Aunt Xue. She doesn't like others calling her sister-in-law." Aunt Lanhua introduced Zhou Shuangshuang.
"Hello, sister-in-law. I always hear An Cheng mention you." Finally, I saw the real person.
The sister-in-law in front of her is very capable. She admired An Cheng very much when she heard what he said.
"Really? That guy didn't say anything good about me." Mei Xue continued jokingly.
"No, he said that sister-in-law, you are very awesome, even more awesome than Brother Anze." Zhou Shuangshuang knew that Brother Anze was Sister-in-law Mei Xue's husband, but in a hurry, she said An Cheng's original words.
However, everyone laughed when they heard it.
But Zhou Shuangshuang felt a little regretful.
"Haha, that's right. Mei Xue is definitely better than An Ze." It was Grandma He who spoke up. On this point, she liked this sentence the most.
Everyone chatted and laughed and soon became familiar with each other.
As for the marriage of Zhou Shuangshuang and An Hun, in the end, they decided not to find any godparents for Zhou Shuangshuang. Her family was not royal or noble, so there was no need.
It's just right.
This also made Zhou Shuangshuang very satisfied, as she didn't want to marry into a wealthy family.
The engagement has been settled, but a date for the wedding also needs to be set.
The woman doesn't have any elders, but the man can't neglect her.
So I discussed it directly with Zhou Shuangshuang.
Their wedding date was set for the second half of the year, and it was only the beginning of July, so it wouldn't be long before their wedding arrived.
I originally wanted to book it for October 1st.
But there were too many people thinking about getting married that day, and Zhou Shuangshuang was the first one who was unhappy.
Later, after chatting and laughing, everyone found out one thing: Zhou Shuangshuang's birthday happened to be in October, which is October in the lunar calendar, but it is probably around December in the solar calendar.
Now the date is set on Zhou Shuangshuang’s birthday.
Neither Zhou Shuangshuang nor Aunt Lanhua had any objections.
They are so anxious to get married that of course they would choose a day that makes them happy.
After An Cheng and Zhou Shuangshuang's matter was settled, He Zhengnan and Aunt Lanhua started to get busy.
They held the banquet directly at the InterContinental, so no one had to go there. They could just call the manager in Kyoto.
Qian Zeyang has been very busy recently. His business is growing bigger and bigger, and he has become a frequent flyer.
It would be better to go to the manager than to him.
The betrothal gift will be easier to arrange.
Aunt Lanhua chose a day to take Zhou Shuangshuang out shopping.
The three golds and five golds must not be missing. This is the custom in the village. She also knows that young people don’t like gold now, but it is also what she wants as a mother-in-law.
As for the diamonds, let An Cheng buy them himself.
Big gold bracelets, big gold chains, not a single finger is empty.
Anyway, Aunt Lanhua bought all the betrothal gifts and items for her daughter-in-law according to her own wishes.
This made Zhou Shuangshuang very nervous.
Not only did she spend a lot of money, but she couldn't take these things out with her.
When An Cheng came back in the evening, Zhou Shuangshuang shared today's results with him. After reading it, An Cheng laughed like a pig.
Zhou Shuangshuang was so angry that she almost kicked him out.
Fortunately, An Cheng finally admitted his mistake and said that he would go with her to pick out the diamond ring for their engagement tomorrow.
It’s not that they can’t afford to wear gold or carry silver.
An Cheng also knew that Shuangshuang was a very frugal person. Whether she was engaged or married, she was not a person who showed off.
I'm going to change the update time now. I really don't have time to write at night. It's okay if I have manuscripts, but it's a bit troublesome when I don't have any. From now on, I'll update during the noon time period. I apologize for the inconvenience.
