He Congyun was amused by his appearance, "They said you were cute, and that you were the reincarnation of a koi, so they named you Little Fish."
Xiao Yuer shyly threw herself into her mother's arms and looked at her brother: "Brother, why did you say I'm cute?"
Dongdong gave half of the peeled orange to He Congyun and fed the rest to Xiaoyuer. "You are cute, aren't you?"
Xiao Yuer bit the orange, turned around and snuggled closer into his mother's arms, then stole a glance at He Congyun.
It's so embarrassing to praise him as cute in front of someone I just met!
"Oh my, when has our little Yu'er ever been so shy?" An Hua was surprised.
"Mom..." Xiao Yuer twisted his body into a knot, refusing to let his mother reveal his past.
Xiao Yuer, who was rarely shy today, made everyone laugh and livened up the atmosphere.
After a while, An Hua took out the gift she had prepared and handed it to He Congyun.
"It's our first meeting, this is a little gift from auntie."
Inside the box was a butterfly-shaped brooch inlaid with diamonds, and the main stone was a pure pigeon blood ruby.
You can tell at first glance that it's worth a lot of money.
He Congyun quickly refused, "Auntie, this is too expensive..."
An Hua stopped her hand and said, "It's okay. This ruby is my dowry. I designed the brooch myself and asked a master to inlay it. It's specially prepared for you. If you don't accept it, it will be a waste of my aunt's kindness."
Dong Dong patted her shoulder and said, "Take it, or my mother will be disappointed."
He Congyun then accepted it and held the box tightly in both hands. Zheng Yu and An Hua thanked him.
Before coming, He Congyun was very nervous because she had seen some bad mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationships and was afraid that she would encounter the same situation. She even made many plans to please her mother-in-law, but she didn't have time to implement them because they all went smoothly.
It didn't matter whether the brooch was expensive or not. What mattered was that she felt her future mother-in-law's sincere welcome.
He Congyun was feeling fortunate at this moment, fortunate that she was so lucky. She found a good partner, her mother-in-law was a good person, and even her partner's brothers and sisters were so cute.
In short, each one is the best!
She had a feeling that she would live a happy life.
Xiao Zheng suddenly asked Dong Dong: "By the way, when are you planning to get married?"
Dong Dong replied: "Cong Yun and I have discussed it and decided to keep it simple. We can set up at most ten tables for the banquet and invite relatives and friends from both sides to have a meal together."
He Congyun also nodded, "Yes, uncle, we both think that there is no need to make a big fuss, which can save energy and money. Both of us have ordinary incomes, so it is better to be frugal."
Xiao Zheng praised this idea, "You young people have such awareness, which is good."
An Hua didn't have any intention of having a lavish wedding and didn't object.
She asked, "Where shall we hold the banquet?"
Dong Dong glanced at his father and said, "Uncle He said that it's up to Dad to decide. It's fine for the He family to have a few tables, or for both sides to have a few tables."
Xiao Zheng thought for a moment and said, "Don't bother. Let's just do it once. The location can be set in the capital. The He family is all in the capital, so it will be convenient for us to go there."
Xiao Zheng's main concern was that He Mingzhang was in the capital, and he had been ill for the last two months, so it was not convenient to let He Mingzhang move.
Dong Dong Yu: "Dad has decided on the specific date, right?"
Xiao Zheng smiled and said, "Okay, let me look up the almanac first."
