Ming Huaiyuan and his wife certainly knew that what Hua Yue said was only a possibility, and there was no shortage of her exaggerated sophistry.
But I can’t stand the fear of being a parent who cares about me and will lead to chaos.
They have been involved in officialdom for a long time and are best at weighing the pros and cons and making timely choices.
They prefer to hold on to existing certainties rather than unknown uncertainties and risks.
Xu Zhiyi was indeed not the perfect daughter-in-law they wanted, but she wasn't that bad either. At least her appearance had successfully avoided the worst outcome.
Besides, the daughter-in-law needs to be trained. It is better to marry her into the family first, and then let the elders slowly train her. It is better than Octavia never getting married in her life.
If, one day, Octavia brings another man back to the Ming family, then...
Thinking of this, they both shuddered and wished they could marry Xu Zhiyi tomorrow.
From this point of view, Xu Zhiyi saved the Ming family.
You have to marry her into the family, you must marry her into the family.
Xu Cheng was still answering the phone in the bedroom, while Hua Yue was looking for topics to liven up the atmosphere.
She and Li Zijuan got close, "Master, Ming Rui is really interested in Zhiyi. In order to cultivate a relationship with her and avoid the pain of being in a different place, he specially applied for a one-year temporary position in Hangzhou, so you don't have to worry. After the National Day, Octavia will take care of her in Hangzhou for you and Teacher Xu."
Hearing this, Li Zijuan was startled and immediately put down the teacup in her hand, "Are you telling the truth?"
Zhou Lan quickly interjected, "Mother Zhiyi, it's true. My son has been on a business trip abroad this month just to get this opportunity. This matter is already a done deal, so don't worry."
Zhou Feng struck while the iron was hot and said with a smile: "So, as soon as the two got engaged on National Day, Octavia took care of Zhiyi in Hangzhou. It's just and legitimate, and others can't say anything. What do you think? In-laws."
Li Zijuan was thoughtful, forced a smile, nodded and said: "It seems to make sense..."
As she spoke, she looked towards the bedroom and muttered:
"What's going on with Acheng? The guests are waiting, why are you talking to the girl endlessly? You guys sit down first, I'll call my Acheng and ask him to come out quickly and talk about business. It's so rude to keep you waiting." "
Zhou Lan and the others watched her walk into the bedroom.
After a long while, Xu Cheng and Li Zijuan came out of the bedroom, their faces looking very bad.
Zhou Lan and Zhou Feng looked at each other and prepared to adapt accordingly.
Hua Yue quickly gave Xu Cheng a cup of hot tea and handed it over, saying with concern: "Teacher, you don't look good. Nothing happened to the elementary school girl?"
Xu Cheng took the hot tea and his expression softened, "It's okay, she's okay."
He took two sips of tea, put the tea cup on the half-used glass coffee table, looked at Zhou Lan, raised a smile at the corner of his mouth, and said:
"In-laws, you are here today to propose marriage for the second time. You are full of sincerity. We have nothing more to say, so we will do as you said. We will get engaged to our two children on National Day. What date will it be set for?"
The three people looked surprised and beamed. Zhou Lan said:
"Great, in-laws, we have already agreed on the date. It will be 11:30 in the morning on October 4th. What do you think?"
Xu Cheng: "Okay, let's set October 4th."
The atmosphere suddenly became warm, and the Xu family had no objection to the Ming family's choice of the engagement address.
Once the time and address are determined, the two families will notify all relatives in the next few days.
The groom will take the lead in the engagement, and the details of the process will be decided together with the Xu family after the Ming family comes up with a good plan.
When things were almost done, Zhou Lan and the others stood up to say goodbye. Xu Cheng and his wife sent them downstairs. As soon as they left the door of the building, they bumped into Xu Yan and Su Jianguo.
Xu Yan and Su Jianguo were sullen and looked like they were going to attack the enemy. When they saw Zhou Feng in the crowd, their sullen expressions instantly turned into smiles.
Su Jianguo bowed, took small steps, stretched out his hand, met Zhou Feng, held his hand tightly, and said flatteringly:
"Mr. Zhou, hello, hello. It's a pleasure to meet you. I never thought you would condescend to come to a place like this."
Zhou Feng looked at him with a confused look, "You are..."
Xu Yan hurriedly squeezed forward, with a smile on her face, "Mr. Zhou, my husband Su Jianguo has contracted the door and window work in the real estate you developed. He has met you, but you haven't seen him. You don't know him. It's normal. It's very strange." normal."
"Oh..." Zhou Feng took out his hand and frowned slightly, "If it involves company business, please contact the specific competent department."
Xu Yan said anxiously: "No, we are..."
Su Jianguo quickly told her to shut up and pulled her aside wisely.
Zhou Feng looked at Xu Cheng and Li Zijuan and said apologetically:
"My in-laws, I'm sorry to make you laugh. That's it. Let's take our leave first and wait for the engagement plan to come out before the two families can discuss it in detail."
He took the initiative to shake hands with Xu Cheng and say goodbye.
Xu Cheng said politely: "Okay, then we will send you here and walk slowly."
"Teacher, Master, goodbye!"
Li Zijuan waved her hand to Hua Yue, smiled and said, "Goodbye."
The figures of the three people disappeared around the corner. Xu Cheng and Li Zijuan turned around, lowered their faces, and looked at Su Jianguo and Xu Yan.
Xu Cheng stared at Xu Yan, with a sullen expression on his face, "Why did you bring Jianguo here? Do you want to beat your sister-in-law, or me, your eldest brother?"
Xu Yan raised her head with an unforgiving attitude, "Huh, big brother, your girl can just beat my Yingxue like that. What's wrong with me saying something angry?"
Li Zijuan took a step forward, pressed her down with her height, and looked down at her, "It was your girl who made the first move, and then my girl hit her. Is it possible that you still want my girl to stand still and let you Beat me, girl! You have a beautiful idea. It turns out that the evil one is the first to complain."
Xu Yan shouted: "Li Zijuan, you fart..."
Xu Cheng said angrily: "Xu Yan, shut up! If you dare to be disrespectful to your sister-in-law again, don't blame me for being rude to you! Don't you know who caused the conflict between the two children today? The conflict has already happened. Let them figure it out on their own. What do you two want to do when you come to my house?"
"me……"
Under Xu Cheng's pressure, Xu Yan became bald.
Xu Cheng held Li Zijuan's hand tightly, gave them both a warning look, ignored them, and pulled Li Zijuan upstairs.
Su Jianguo pushed Xu Yan, "What are you doing standing there? Go upstairs quickly. From what I just said, Zhiyi's girl's marriage is done. Go and ask about the details. I'm telling you, I'll talk to your sister-in-law properly later. , your eldest brother’s family is related to the Ming family. It’s not what it used to be. From now on, we’ll have more places to borrow the spotlight from his family, do you hear that?”
Just kidding, Surround Group is the largest real estate developer in Acropolis, and Zhou Feng is the boss of Surround Group and Octavia's uncle.
If we can leverage this relationship in the future and win several major real estate projects every year, will we still worry about making a lot of money?
This bitch with no eyesight in his family still scolded Li Zijuan as before.
Li Zijuan's identity has now changed and she has become Ming Rui's mother-in-law and the biological mother of the Ming family. She cannot be easily offended anymore.
If you mess with her, isn't it because you have trouble with money?
What he lacks most now is money.
