Xiang Nan immediately started shopping in the city.
Cigarettes, alcohol, sugar, tea, etc... are all bought.
After buying it, he opened a room in the county hotel and put all the gifts in the room.
Since he decided not to see Xie Guangkun again, he naturally stopped going home.
After placing the gifts, he took a taxi and returned to Ivory Mountain Village.
I went to see Xie Dajiaoer first, "Auntie, please accompany me to the seventh uncle's house. I want to talk to him about the engagement."
"Hey, Yongqiang, you're quite nimble in doing things." Xie Dajiao'er laughed and teased, "What's wrong, are you anxious about waiting?"
Xiang Nan smiled and ignored her.
All the old ladies in the Northeast are very tough. Especially Xie Dajiao, who is a matchmaker. He has a big mouth and can talk loudly. He is bolder and more open-minded than the men. I have never nagged her like this before.
Xie Dajiaoer then packed up and took Xiang Nan to Wang Laoqi's house.
"Brother Qi, hurry up, your prospective son-in-law is here!" As soon as she entered the door, she shouted with a smile, alarming Wang Laoqi, his wife, and Wang Xiaomeng.
"Seventh uncle, aunt~" Xiang Nan greeted quickly.
"Sit in the room, sit in the room." Wang Laoqi greeted somewhat cautiously.
He has heard from Xiaomeng that Yongqiang will come to his house to propose marriage in the next two days. To be honest, he was half happy and half worried.
Happily, my daughter’s life-long event has been settled. Yongqiang is highly educated and capable. It is difficult to find a son-in-law like this. It is a blessing in this life that a daughter can find such a partner.
What worries him is that there is opposition in Yongqiang's family, which makes him always worried. If Yongqiang can't bear it anymore and abandons his daughter for the sake of her family, then her daughter will be very sad.
Moreover, Yongqiang’s conditions are so good. It's more than enough to find a partner in the city, but Xiaomeng's conditions are really bad. Qi Dafei was worried about whether they would be able to live together after they got married, and whether Yongqiang would change his heart.
…
"Brother Qi, Yongqiang asked me to come here just to talk about the engagement." After entering the room and sitting down, Xie Dajiaoer said with a smile.
"Yongqiang, has your father agreed on the engagement?" Wang Laoqi said fearfully.
He knew that Xie Guangkun was not good enough to beat him up, he would disturb three points unreasonably, and he would not let others go if he was justified. It was such a big deal to get engaged, and if he didn't nod, he would be worried that something would go wrong.
"Uncle Qi, you don't have to worry about him. My father can't be my master." Xiang Nan waved his hand and said, "I make the decision on my own marriage. If my father messes around, I will sever ties with him. From now on, You and my aunt are my biological father and mother, and I respect you two as my own sons."
"Hey~" Xie Dajiao was shocked when he heard what he said.
Wang Laoqi, his wife, and Wang Xiaomeng were stunned on the spot. None of them expected that Xiang Nan would dare to be so cruel.
"Yongqiang, you can't say that, your father is your father after all." Xie Dajiao quickly advised.
"Yes, for the sake of a daughter-in-law, I even gave up my biological father. How can it be spread out?" Wang Laoqi also waved his hands and said, "Not only is it unpleasant for you, we can't treat you well in Ivory Mountain."
For the sake of my wife, I don’t even want my father. What I knew was that Xiang Nan was cruel, but what I didn't know was that he thought the old Wang family had given him some kind of medicine.
"Uncle Qi, actually I'm not that cruel. Why don't I know that it is unfilial for a son to deny his father." Xiang Nan nodded and said, "But it's not like you don't know my father's character. I and I He tried to reason, but he didn't listen at all and insisted on meddling in my affairs.
If I don't say harsh words and don't let him know my attitude, have you ever thought about how I will live in the future? He will get involved in everything I do from now on.
Who should I marry, what class should I take, how can I raise children, how should I teach them... I am a puppet, a puppet. Are you willing to let Xiaomeng marry such a person who has no independent opinions and only listens to his father's words? "
Wang Laoqi fell silent after hearing this.
To be honest, if the son-in-law can't make the decision at all, he will just follow the arrangements of his parents. He really didn't dare to let his daughter marry such a son-in-law.
Because such a son-in-law, no matter how good his condition is or how glamorous he looks, is essentially a loser. If my daughter wants to marry such a person, she will be tortured to death.
Thinking about it this way, Xiang Nan's resistance was not wrong, but his methods were a bit excessive.
…
"Okay, let's not talk about this, let's talk about the engagement." Wang Laoqi said again, "We in the Wang family are not the kind of people who are greedy for money. You don't need to prepare too many gifts for the engagement, just prepare them according to the standards of ordinary people.
On that day, let’s treat a few tables to banquets and invite relatives, friends, and neighbors to have a drink. It’s enough to be passable in terms of face. "
"Uncle Qi, I have already bought all the tobacco, wine, sugar and tea. I'm afraid I won't have room to store the chicken, duck, fish and meat. I can buy it now in time on that day." Xiang Nan explained, "In the past two days, I also want to take Xiaomeng there. Go to the city and buy some clothes, jewelry, etc."
"Yeah." Wang Laoqi nodded.
Not to mention anything else, Yongqiang is quite happy when doing things.
"Bigfoot, when is the good day?" he asked again.
"Before coming, I checked the almanac, the day after tomorrow will be good." Xie Dajiao said with a smile.
"Okay, let's do it the day after tomorrow." Wang Laoqi nodded.
Afterwards, some details were finalized, and Xiang Nancai and Xie Dajiaoer left.
"Aunt Bigfoot, thank you for your hard work. This is five hundred yuan, please keep it." After coming out, Xiang Nan counted out the five hundred yuan and said to Xie Bigfoot.
In the Xiangai universe, Xie Dajiaoer basically belongs to the type of person who fails to accomplish anything but fails to accomplish anything.
Whatever she wants, she may not be able to achieve it. But if she wants to do something bad, it will work 100% of the time.
Just like the marriage between Liu Ying'er and Zhao Yutian, if she hadn't heard something wrong, the two of them wouldn't have been in such a big trouble.
So Xiang Nan just used money to silence her and tell her not to do bad things.
"Oh, Yongqiang, you kid is too open-minded." Xie Dajiao said in surprise. She just followed him and made five hundred yuan. She really didn't expect it.
It's no wonder. After all, Yongqiang went to college and became a writer. This move and pattern are really different.
"However, Auntie can't ask for your money." Xie Dajiao evaded again, "You and Xiao Meng negotiated it yourself, and I didn't do much to help. I don't have the nerve to accept money for no merit. "
"Auntie, don't say that. Just keep the money." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "It's my first time getting married and I don't understand anything. I have to rely on you to help me. Just keep it, and I'll feel at ease if you keep it. ."
"Okay, the matter of your marriage to Xiaomeng is on Aunt Bao. If your father wants to make trouble, I will help you handle it." Xie Dajiao immediately promised.
"Thank you, auntie. I will definitely give you a big red envelope on our wedding day." Xiang Nan said with a smile.
