Chapter 867: Meeting with In-laws (1/3)
After Feng Shumin entered the house, he discussed with Wang Fenglian in a few words, and waited until the eighth day of the eighth day to sit at Mei's house to finalize the details of the engagement. Even though she was very dissatisfied with both Ouyang Xun Ye and both of them today, she still gave them a lot of face and didn't say anything, just as if nothing happened.
Ouyang Ling was so happy, she kept trying to make faces at Ouyang. Grandma was in charge. Her brother wanted to destroy the relationship between her and Leilei. There was no way!
Ouyang Xun lamented in his heart, saying that the girls were extroverted, and he was not wrong at all. This has not been engaged yet, and he has already turned to her in-laws. When he gets married in the future, he will not put his maiden brother in his eyes... Then I think about it. When Lingling got married, it was estimated that he and Ran Ran would be married too. That was his father-in-law's family, and he had to flatter him. He suddenly felt that he would be shorter when he saw Mei Xiaolei again in the future.
Wang Fenglian happily went to Mei’s house and replied. The matchmaker was also very happy. Originally, everyone who turned around was regarded as relatives. If they become a family in the future, they will not be regarded as pros and cons. Even their Wang family might be able to follow along.
I have already booked the eighth day of the female party to visit the man’s house. I must have a good meal at noon. It’s not appropriate to go out to eat on the New Year’s Day, so I have to trouble the Cheng family to come and help.
Cheng Dashan is now very old, and he is already a little weak in cooking. Fortunately, his two sons have taught him very well. It can be said that he has learned his craft seven or eighty-eight, and let the eldest and third of the Cheng family come over to cook. You can definitely get it.
But meeting with the girl’s parents is only the first step. The most important thing is to find someone to see a suitable date for the two children to get engaged as soon as possible. Although it is a new era, the locals give their children be engaged and married, and they also like to find someone to read the horoscope and make a good day. Although feudal superstition is not promoted for a long time, metaphysics has been passed down for thousands of years. It seems that it has become a practice locally.
Here, Mei Zhonghua hurriedly asked the people to watch the day, and there began preparations in advance. Be sure to hold this banquet with in-laws grand and sincere!
On the eighth day of the eighth day, Ouyang Xun's family of four came over, but his father and son did not come. Although they were discussing the engagement of their granddaughter, they were too senior to be used to it.
Since the meeting is in-laws, apart from the matchmaker Wang Fenglian and his wife, there are no extra outsiders. The two are already familiar with each other, and they are half of their sons and daughters.
Now there is another layer of relationship. There is no need to say more about the polite scenes. What is said is that the two will become one family in the future, and the children should also respect and love each other. Then, discussing the details of the engagement, Li Mingyun said that how other people’s family got engaged, she would do it with the two children, and she would never be at the mercy of Ouyang Ling.
Ouyang Ling and Mei Xiaolei just took a look at me, I took a look at you, looking at each other silly and crookedly.
Finally, Ouyang Ling said very emotionally: "Ten years ago, if it hadn’t been for Sister Ran Ran, I would have disappeared in this world. It can be said that my life was given by Sister Ran Ran. I will marry into Mei’s family in the future. Just to repay my sister Ran Ran!"
This made everyone's eyes red. Mei Xiaoran also subconsciously thought that Ouyang Ling was indeed gone very early in the previous life, but when she was reborn, she saved Ouyang Ling, which not only changed Ouyang Ling’s fate, but also changed Ouyang Ling’s destiny. In addition to his own destiny, it can even be said that even the destiny of the entire big family has changed. A small thing that seems inadvertent, in fact, changes the natal chart of many people.
Feng Shumin red eyes and said: "Lingling said it is right, your life is indeed saved by your sister Ran Ran. When you marry to Mei's house in the future, you have to be filial to your in-laws and treat your sister Ran Ran well!"
Ouyang looked for yin and yang and corrected a sentence: "Should be called sister-in-law!"
Everyone burst into laughter.
On the sixth day of the sixth year, after Ouyang came to Mei Xiaolei and questioned him, he was a little unhappy with Mei Xiaoran. Yesterday he had walked a few times in front of Mei's house under the excuse that Mei Xiaoran pretended not to see him and ignored him. In fact, Mei Xiaoran still wanted to hang him up today, but after all, she couldn’t hold her face in front of her future parents-in-law, so she pretended to be casual and found Ouyang for pleasure, thinking that this matter would be turned over. .
At this moment, Mei Xiaoran also followed and laughed, which completely forgives Ouyang Xun.
In fact, it’s not difficult to understand. Ouyang’s search for sister-in-law, of course, is reluctant to let his sister marry so early, not to mention that Mei Xiaolei is almost the same as him, the kind of loss that is suddenly lost. He can't accept it.
After the meal, Teacher Ouyang’s family went back, but Ouyang Xun did not leave. She cheeked and left and asked Mei Xiaoran: "When will you go back to the pharmaceutical factory to work? I must leave tomorrow. Anyway, Lingling will follow Lei Lei doesn't need me to get engaged."
According to local customs in Kangping County, it is true that all engagements are female guests, or they will also bring children, but they certainly do
Men will come. Ouyang Xun's annual leave is over. If it weren't for meeting with his in-laws today, he would have returned to work in the provincial capital yesterday. Anyway, Lingling's engagement couldn't help him, so he was anxious to go back to work.
"I may have to wait two days, after the Lantern Festival."
Ouyang Xun was unhappy: "Want to wait so long? You take so many days off, are you afraid of deducting your salary?"
"I'm going to Xiping County and Xiangping County to confirm the production area of Chinese medicinal materials for the factory."
Mei Xiaoran made a long story short: "You also know that the Chinese medicine production line of our pharmaceutical factory has been built, but the province has the highest quality of Chinese medicine here, and it is well-known throughout the country. Moreover, it is not far from the provincial capital. It will also bring a good economy."
"Yeah, when you said that, I reminded me that when I was in middle school, every summer, your uncle would take Lei Lei and them to catch scorpions."
Ouyang Xun talked about the past with a slight smile on his face, and many years passed in a flash.
"At that time, everyone was not rich. My brother-in-law just relied on catching scorpions to earn tuition for himself, and went to vocational high school for three years."
"Then if you want to say that, I will leave by car tomorrow."
Mei Xiaoran gave him the car key, "You can drive my car and go with my uncle and them tomorrow."
"Aren't you still going to Xiangping County and Xiping County, what should you do if I drove the car away?"
Mei Xiaoran laughed: "My dad still has a Santana, I will drive his car when the time comes."
"That's it." Ouyang Xun didn't hesitate, after all, he and Li Hongwei went together, and it was more convenient to drive back to the provincial capital.
By the next day, Ouyang looked for them and returned to the provincial capital, while Mei Xiaoran drove her father’s car to go to Xiping County and Neiping County, but unexpectedly, Mei Xiaolei and Ouyang Ling also wanted to go. Keeping up, saying that it is to be a company with her, it is considered to be out for fun.
The mountain at the junction of Neiping County and Xiping County was listed as a national nature reserve in the past few years. The scenery there is naturally first-class, and the Chinese medicine base that Mei Xiaoran is going to investigate is here. .
The group of three drove to Neiping County, just after the new year, there were few pedestrians on the road, and occasionally pedestrians drove away relatives.
Mei Xiaoran handed over the work of the driver to Mei Xiaolei, and sat in the back with Ouyang Ling.
"Lingling, I'll just ask you, why would you like my Leilei? This silly boy is really blessed!"
