Chapter 26 Chapter 26 Gu Zhao’s eyes were glued to my little sister…
Ye Tan almost laughed out loud when he heard this, but he felt that laughing in front of her was not a good idea. After all, the original owner and Yingzi grew up together, so he turned around and grabbed a handful of candy and gave it to her.
"Auntie, please have some candy. Bring some back for Yingzi to try."
Zuo Cuihua: "Yes, yes, yes, let Yingzi eat more, so that she can share in the joy of her sister Xiao Tan and find a good partner someday."
After passing by two neighboring families, Ye Tan was afraid that if he delayed any further he would encounter people who came out to watch the fun, so he quickly returned home with Gu Zhao.
Xu Huiling's fish had been prepared long ago and was waiting to be served. Seeing that the guests had finally arrived, she breathed a sigh of relief, greeted them, and went back to the kitchen to serve the dish.
Ye Yanlin helped unload the things from the bicycle and brought them into the house. Ye Jianguo asked Gu Zhao to sit down in the main room.
Ye Tan had nothing to do and couldn't talk to Gu Zhao for the time being, so he went to the kitchen to help Ms. Xu Huiling serve the dishes.
But before she could get involved, she was kicked out: "Don't get your newly changed clothes dirty. Go and talk to Xiao Gu."
Ye Tan refused to go: "Dad will be there to talk to him, there's no need for me."
Xu Huiling glared at her daughter, thinking she was naive. "Silly girl, they didn't come here for your dad, they came here for you."
He pushed her again and said, "Go quickly."
Ye Tan had no choice but to go. When he arrived at the main hall, Gu Zhao was chatting happily with Ye Jianguo with an appropriate smile, and Ye Yanlin was standing aside, interjecting from time to time.
When they saw Ye Tan and Gu Zhao, their faces lit up instantly, and even Ye Yanlin next to them was almost blinded by his eyes.
Ye Yanlin curled his lips and dragged his stool to sit aside, wanting Ye Tan to sit between him and his father. However, as soon as he moved, his foot was stepped on under the table.
Ye Yanlin looked at his father and got a look of disgust, then looked at the two people who were grinning at each other. He stopped without any expression and watched his little sister sit down between Gu Zhao and his father.
Gu Zhao's eyes were glued to my little sister.
After a while, Ye Yanlin was called away by Xu Huiling. After a while, Ye Jianguo looked at his children and said, "It's time to eat. I'll go find that bottle of wine from last time. We'll have a couple more drinks later."
Ye Jianguo turned and went to the east room. For a moment, only Ye Tan and Gu Zhao were left in the main room.
Gu Zhao let out a breath of relief and grabbed Ye Tan's hand. Ye Tan shook it off meaningfully: "What are you doing? Be careful not to be seen."
Gu Zhao was not afraid and said, "This is the space your father left for us to talk." So no one should come to disturb us for the time being.
Ye Tan looked at him with a smile: "What do you want to say?"
Of course Gu Zhao had something to say. He had a lot to say, but now that it was time to speak, he didn't know what to say. After a long pause, he could only utter one sentence: "What do you think, I should go to your house tomorrow to propose marriage?"
Ye Tan didn't understand these matters of marriage and couldn't answer him: "You can ask my dad later."
Gu Zhao leaned closer to her, his voice low and coaxing, "I want to know now if you think this is okay? Do you think it's too urgent?"
Ye Tan's face turned slightly red from his scent, and she couldn't help but think of the kiss last night. Don't seduce me in broad daylight.
Ye Tan wanted to step away, but was stopped by Gu Zhao: "Xiao Tan, I want to marry you right now."
Ye Tan pushed him: "Sit down properly." He was so bold in his own house, wasn't he afraid of being seen and kicked out?
Gu Zhao looked at her deeply. Of course he was afraid of being seen and kicked out, but who could blame him for his good hearing? He could hear someone approaching from far away. The most important thing was that Ye Tan didn't mind him doing this, so he was fearless now.
Ye Tan glanced outside, then looked at the silent east room. He stretched out his other hand to hold his chin, and while pushing his face back, he whispered, "You don't have many days left in your vacation. Just hurry up a little. As long as my parents agree, I have no objection."
Gu Zhao straightened up and sat upright, his eyes bright and his face full of joy: "Can we get married before my vacation is over?"
Ye Tan: "I'm fine with either. It just depends on whether my dad agrees."
Of course Ye Jianguo had no choice but to agree. Since his daughter was about to go to the countryside, it would be better for her to get married as soon as possible.
The marriage can be concluded, but the necessary etiquette must be followed. This was the final insistence of the sad old father.
The meal lasted until dark. Ye Jianguo had learned his lesson from last time, so he really had a couple of drinks this time. In addition, he had felt sad last time, so his emotions were not as volatile this time, and he did not get drunk.
Gu Zhao didn't drink much, and when he went back, he didn't even need Ye Yanlin to send him off, he went back on his own.
As soon as he got home, Gu Zhao called the army and asked the political commissar to approve his marriage application.
He had written the application report when he met Ye Tan and was thinking about getting married. He also wrote down the details of the Ye family and sent it over. It should have arrived by now if it was expedited. As expected, the military's political review was fine, and the marriage application was easily approved. Now Gu Zhao called to urge him, so the political commissar had no choice but to send it to him on an expedited basis.
I was really curious about the marriage partner of this difficult Gu Zhao. Just when I wanted to ask a few more questions, Gu Zhao hung up the phone after getting a definite answer, causing the political commissar to curse a series of bastards into the receiver.
The army had been settled, and Gu Zhao was planning to buy the betrothal items himself. When Lin Qiuyun came back, he heard that the Ye family had agreed.
And the silly son actually wanted to propose marriage and marry his daughter directly.
Lin Qiuyun rubbed her son's eyebrows fiercely and scolded him, "You are such a loser! They promised you that they would marry their daughter to you so casually, and you even want to come directly to propose marriage? You are so flattering."
Gu Zhao rubbed his brow, looking puzzled: "Don't you have to pay the betrothal gift before getting married?"
Lin Qiuyun: "Then you have to ask a matchmaker to come and propose marriage. Only after the other person's parents agree can you offer the betrothal gifts. If they don't even ask for the marriage proposal, I'd be surprised if they don't kick you out."
Gu Zhao suddenly realized it, patted his forehead and said, "Oh right, we still need to find a matchmaker."
He didn't know the answer for the first time, so he asked his mother, "Mom, who do you think would be a good matchmaker?"
Lin Qiuyun had already thought of the candidate in her mind, and of course she couldn't be careless about such a matter of saving face for both men and women.
"We won't look for anyone else as the official matchmaker. We can just invite your Aunt Zhao from the factory and your Uncle Feng as well."
Zhao Xiumei, director of the sugar factory's finance department, and Lin Qiuyun are good sisters. They are warm and cheerful, and they often worry about the marriage of Gu Zhao, an older young man.
Deputy factory director Feng Xian is Zhao Xiumei's husband. She was a comrade-in-arms with Gu Zhao's father and a good brother who had been through life and death together. Later, Gu Zhao's father died in the war, but he luckily survived and transferred to a local sugar factory when he returned.
In short, with these two people as matchmakers, the face and style are enough.
The matchmaker has been chosen, and all that remains is to prepare the gifts for delivery.
This time is different from when Gu Zhao visited the girl's home himself. It is more grand and the gifts cannot be casual. When he goes, he needs to prepare the betrothal gift list in advance for the girl to review.
The mother and son stayed up most of the night because of this matter, discussing the details. Fortunately, Gu Zhao's marriage had been delayed for several years, and Lin Qiuyun had already prepared all the important things needed to marry a daughter-in-law. Before, she was troubled by the fact that she wanted to give the things but couldn't, but now, God bless her son and he finally got it.
They were so happy that the mother and son prepared a long list of gifts, but neither of them looked sorry when they saw them.
Gu Zhao felt that Ye Tan was so good that she deserved so many things. Lin Qiuyun felt that although these looked like a lot, they would be used by his son and daughter-in-law in the future and would not be given to others at all.
