After hearing what she said, Chen Minhui immediately asked, "Shulan, which school do you work in?"
"Aunt, I'm still in college! But I opened a clothing company with a few classmates. At present, the company is developing well."
Chen Minhui said happily: "You are such an excellent child, and Jia Ruoyi has a good eye."
"Thank you for your kind words, Aunt." Qin Shulan knew that the Nangong family was a military family and that Old Man Nangong was an old combat hero with a high status. Although she fell in love with Nangong Ruoyi, she didn't want his family to look down on her and think that she was trying to climb up the social ladder.
"Shulan, where are you from?" Chen Minhui continued to inquire about the information. The more she looked at this girl, the more satisfied she became.
"My home is in Changzhou. It takes a day to get there by car." Qin Shulan replied with a smile, wanting to make a good impression on her future mother-in-law.
Yun Siying watched the two of them asking and answering each other, getting along harmoniously. She went to the kitchen, looked at Aunt Chen who was busy, and said, "Aunt Chen, I'm here to help you."
Aunt Chen looked at Yun Siying gratefully and said with a smile: "Thank you Siying, I didn't expect that there would be guests at home today. I am a little late for this time. I really need your help. Otherwise, the meal will not be ready by dinner time."
When grandpa and father-in-law came home from get off work, they saw that not only was the eldest brother back, but there was also a girl sitting next to him. The two of them were acting very intimately, and it was obvious that their relationship was not simple. With the introduction of the eldest brother, the two parties got to know each other. Grandpa and father-in-law spoke to each other politely on the surface, but their eyes were secretly observing Qin Shulan.
The old man glanced around the living room, looked at Nangong Ruochen and asked, "Ruochen, Siying's car is parked outside, where is she?"
Nangong Ruochen glanced at the kitchen and replied, "Grandpa, Siying is helping with cooking in the kitchen."
The old man smiled for a moment, then said with surprise: "Then we are in for a treat tonight. Siying has been busy outside for the past year, and I haven't had a meal cooked by her for a long time."
Nangong Ruochen glared at Nangong Ruoyi and complained, "My wife is already very tired. Big brother didn't even tell you in advance that he was coming back. Aunt Chen was too busy for the time being, so she had to go to help."
The old man glanced at him and said unhappily, "Then why don't you go help in the kitchen?"
Nangong Ruochen defended himself, "It's in the kitchen. There are too many people and it's hard to move around inside. Otherwise, I would have gone to help."
At this time, Yun Siying brought out the food from the kitchen and saw the people on the sofa and shouted, "Grandpa, Dad, you are off work."
"Yeah." The old man responded, smelling the aroma of the food, and then asked, "Who is in charge of the spoon today?"
Yun Siying said mischievously: "Grandpa, both Wang and Aunt Chen will be cooking tonight. Let's see if you can tell which dish Wang cooked."
"Okay! Wait a minute, you have to taste it carefully." Grandpa became interested.
The moment Nangong Ruochen saw Yun Siying bringing out the dishes, he went to the kitchen to help serve the dishes and rice. After all the food was served, Chen Minhui looked at Yun Siying with satisfaction: "Siying, you have worked hard today."
Then she quickly greeted him, "Shulan, the food is ready, let's go eat first. Aunt Chen's cooking skills are very good, and Siying's cooking skills are not inferior to hers. You can try their cooking skills."
The whole family sat down around the dining table, and after the old man started eating, everyone picked up their chopsticks and began to eat dinner.
Nangong Ruoyi and Chen Huimin were sitting on Qin Shulan's left and right. They kept picking up food for her. Looking at the delicious food, she felt a little greedy. She took a bite first, and the delicious taste filled her whole mouth.
After swallowing the food in her mouth, she praised, "This food tastes really good, even better than what the chefs at state-owned restaurants make."
Nangong Ruoyi saw that she was very satisfied with the meal and said with a smile on his face, "It's delicious, eat more." He kept putting food into her bowl.
The old man was tasting every dish carefully. After tasting all the dishes, he said confidently: "Siying, these braised pork, braised prawns, boiled pork slices, and garlic spareribs are all made by you, right?"
Yun Siying immediately gave him a thumbs up and said with a smile: "Grandpa, you are really amazing. You tasted it all."
After the meal, Yun Siying felt that Qin Shulan was more relaxed and natural, not as anxious and awkward as before. Chen Minhui came down from upstairs and handed Qin Shulan a red envelope. Judging from the thickness, there was a lot of money in it: "Shulan, our whole family likes you very much. This is a meeting gift for you. Please don't despise it."
Qin Shulan couldn't refuse, so she accepted it. As the sky gradually darkened, she said, "Grandpa Nangong, uncle, aunt, it's getting late. We should go back to school."
Chen Minhui smiled and said, "Let Ruoyi take you back. Come to my house and talk to me when you have time."
"Okay, aunt." Qin Shulan replied politely.
Yun Siying held her hand and said, "Come often when you are free. Mother-in-law likes you very much." Then she leaned close to her ear and said in a low voice, "It is best for you to marry in sooner so that you can have a companion."
She got into the car with a blushing face, looking as if she was running away, said goodbye to everyone, and the car drove away.
On the second night, right after dinner, my eldest brother said seriously, "Grandpa, 놖's marriage report has been submitted, Mom and Dad. Will you go to Shulan's house with 땣 to propose marriage the day after tomorrow?"
Chen Minhui asked happily: "Is this the result of your discussion with Shulan?" Looking at the look in her eldest son's eyes, she felt satisfied that he had finally done something useful.
"Well, it took a long time of persuasion to get her to agree. She called her family today and bought the necessary gifts today." The eldest brother's eyes were full of joy. It seemed that he was really in love with Qin Shulan and was so eager to bring her into his nest.
Nangong Bo had to ask for leave for his son's lifelong event: "Okay, I'll ask for leave tomorrow. Minhui, prepare the money and try to get it done right the first time."
"Hey, let's go and prepare it here." Chen Minhui went upstairs happily.
Soon, the day of departure arrived. My eldest brother and my parents drove off with many gifts in the car, and my mother-in-law's bag was filled with a lot of money.
Five days later, Yun Siying returned home from get off work. Seeing her parents-in-law, her eldest brother, and Qin Shulan, she asked, "Mom, Dad, my eldest brother, and my eldest sister-in-law, you're back."
The mother-in-law said happily, "Well, I'm back. Your eldest brother and his wife have already obtained their marriage certificate. Three days later, our family will hold a wedding banquet for them. Your eldest brother's vacation is only a few days away, so the time is a bit tight. I'm sorry Shulan will be wronged."
"Mom, I haven't been wronged." Qin Shulan saw the sincerity of the Nangong family and gave them enough face, a generous betrothal gift, and money for her and Nangong Ruoyi to buy electrical appliances.
