Although the Queen Mother was unhappy, she had no choice but to compromise in the end because she doted on her son too much.
She nodded, tacitly agreeing to Wang Yunshen's decision.
The reason why Wang Yunshen insisted on going there in person was that he wanted to witness with his own eyes the humiliating scene when he proposed to the daughter of the Dong family as his concubine.
He wanted to see the woman whom Qian Xingshan cherished like a treasure bowing her head and being humiliated in front of him. He was looking forward to seeing Qian Xingshan's angry and helpless expression.
The Qian family, who had no idea of this, had already arrived at Dong's residence, exhausted.
Everyone in the Dong residence had already learned the news, so they opened the door to welcome the Qian family.
In the main hall of Dong's mansion, the host and the guests sat on either side, creating a solemn yet warm atmosphere.
Witnessed by Mrs. Sun, the parents of both parties solemnly exchanged engagement documents, each with their own expectations for the future.
The engagement document was tightly wrapped in exquisite silk, like a precious treasure.
On it were written the names of the two families, their birth dates and the date of engagement in neat regular script, with clear handwriting and vigorous strokes.
This is not only a certificate of marriage between the two families, but also a firm commitment and good expectations for a better life in the future.
With the successful conclusion of the engagement ceremony, although Qian Xingshan and Dong Nianmei did not officially get married, they had already tacitly accepted each other's identities in their hearts.
This engagement is not only a recognition of their love, but also an expectation and blessing for their future happy life.
At this moment, the Dong Mansion was filled with joy, and the Qian family was also very happy.
They knew that from that day on, the two families would be more closely connected because of this marriage contract and would welcome every beautiful moment in the future together.
By noon, the engagement ceremony had come to a successful conclusion.
Amidst laughter and joy, the two families headed towards Yipinxiang Restaurant in a mighty procession.
The purpose of this trip was not only to support the newly opened restaurant and add some liveliness to it, but also to celebrate the wedding of the two families.
Yipinxiang Restaurant on Jinxiu Street is simple and elegant, with big red lanterns hanging in front of the door, shining brightly.
Inside the restaurant, the aroma of the spicy hot pot and antique soup had already spread in the wind, attracting passers-by to stop and look. They were all attracted by the aroma and couldn't help wanting to find out what it was.
As the ingredients are rare and precious, the restaurant has set a special rule to only entertain ten tables of guests every day.
At the door, a striking poster is clearly visible, which reads: "First come, first served. If ten tables are full, we will close for the day."
Even so, after the initial hesitation, diners could not resist the aroma of the antique soup and continued to come in an endless stream, vying to taste this legendary delicacy.
The three major families, Xue, Yang and Sun, had already booked seats and had been waiting in the private room of the restaurant for a long time, just to celebrate the engagement of Qian Xingshan and Dong Nianmei.
The private room is bright and clean, and is decorated in an elegant and extraordinary way.
Exquisite tea sets and snacks had already been prepared on the table, waiting for the Qian and Dong families to arrive.
…
At noon, Dong Mingqiang and Wang Yunshen's lackeys also came to the Wang family.
They were going to cheer for Wang Yunshen together later, and Dong Mingqiang also wanted to see with his own eyes how angry his cousin would be when he learned the purpose of their visit.
"Let's go." Wang Yunshen waved his hand and was the first to step out of the door.
The lackeys, each holding a gift, followed Wang Yunshen happily.
The matchmaker stood behind them, looking at this group of young people, and couldn't help shaking his head.
She thought to herself, this is not a case of kidnapping the bride.
Later, the marriage proposal team did not follow the usual route and headed towards Dong's mansion.
Instead, they headed towards the prosperous Yipinxiang direction.
Wang Yunshen deliberately chose this noon time when there were many diners, obviously wanting to give the Dong family a "surprise" in front of everyone.
