Chapter 576: Engagement

Fang Pingying thought that Luo Zhiyong was the same as before, instructing the family affairs, and she immediately stopped him, "Okay, don't worry about the family affairs, you haven't been here for so long, we are all doing well." ”

Luo Zhiyong looked at Fang Pingying for a while, his lips squirmed a few times, as if he had a lot to say, but in the end he just nodded slightly, "Okay." ”

The two sat in the car for more than an hour before catching up with Luo Honglan and the others who were waiting for them halfway, Fang Pingying called everyone into the car and asked the driver to be a little faster.

originally said that he would rush to Chen Jie's house before 12 o'clock, but now it's late, I don't know if my parents will be unhappy.

Fortunately, they went out early and didn't delay for long, and at about half past 12, they arrived at the small county where Chen Jie's family was located.

Chen Jie's family has many relatives, it is a very large family, just their family, Chen Jie has three sisters, all of whom are married and have children.

Coupled with some other relatives who are a little more sparse, it is said that at least twenty people have come today.

The Chen family attaches great importance to this engagement, and someone in the family was waiting downstairs early in the morning, and when they saw a car coming, someone immediately went upstairs to call someone.

Chen Jie's family all came down to pick up people.

At the front are Chen Jie's parents, Chen Jie's father is of medium height, honest, with a smile on his face, and he is good at first sight.

is Chen Jie's mother, who is tall and has good facial features, and Chen Jie's appearance is a little more like his mother.

However, Chen Jie's mother looks a little more shrewd than his father.

Coming down from upstairs, her eyes swept over Luo Honglan, Fang Pingying, and Yu'er.

Probably because she had seen Luo Honglan's photos before, her eyes were locked on Luo Honglan. I looked up and down.

Fang Pingying saw a faint dissatisfaction in her eyes.

But to be honest, according to the external conditions of Chen Jie, a young man, he could indeed find a better one.

His mother was understandably dissatisfied.

But she is also a smart person, knowing that her son chose her, and her mother's family is there, she didn't show anything, and soon came over enthusiastically. Greet the crowd.

Obviously. Chen Jie also told his father about the situation of the Luo family at home, Chen Jie's parents didn't ask why their parents didn't come, but the other party Pingying and Luo Zhiyong were very enthusiastic. also mentioned Fang Pingying's big business in the city.

Undoubtedly, Fang Pingying's identity has added a lot of luster to Luo Honglan, coupled with Luo Zhiyong's identity in the army, it can be seen that Chen Jie's mother is generally satisfied with Luo Honglan.

Although Chen Jie's mother looks a little snobbish. But at this time, both men and women were married, and both parents valued each other's families.

Here are the rules of engagement. It's nothing more than a meeting between the relatives of the two families, a meal, and then the man gives the woman some dowry, gold and silver jewelry, and other things.

Generally speaking. The heavier the bride price given by the man's family, the more important it is to the woman.

Chen Jie's parents gave Luo Honglan a bride price of 800 yuan and a simple set of gold jewelry. At this time, it is considered a heavy gift.

But when you get the bride price. Chen Jie's mother smiled and said to Fang Pingying, "Sister-in-law Honglan, you will have to take care of these two children in the city in the future, I don't have any other hopes, I just want the two of them to buy a house in the city like you in the future and become city people." ”

Fang Pingying was stunned, and heard Chen's mother's voice, she didn't answer directly, but said with a smile, "Auntie, please rest assured, our family Honglan and Chen Jie are both people who are willing to work hard and endure hardships, and they will definitely be able to live a good life in the future." ”

"I have to ......"

Before Chen's mother finished speaking, she was stopped by Chen Jie with a smile, "Mom, what house to buy, I plan to work in the army for the rest of my life, the army has a house, and I will live in the army with Honglan." ”

After Chen Jie finished speaking, he glanced at his mother and frowned slightly, obviously, Chen Jie also knew what his mother was thinking, so he simply cut off his mother's thoughts.

Mother Chen was a little embarrassed when she saw her son say this, and muttered, "This child ......"

When Fang Pingying heard this, she patted Chen's mother's hand with a smile and relieved her embarrassment, "Auntie, Chen Jie's work is very good, and he will definitely make great achievements in the army in the future, and he will definitely be better than us in trading." ”

Fang Pingying's words made Chen's mother happy, everyone hopes that their son is also excellent in the eyes of others, so it also breaks this unhappiness.

Later, when Luo Zhiyong was looking for a small person, he asked Fang Pingying's opinion, "What do you think of Chen Jie's family?" ”

"People are good, as a mother-in-law, it is also necessary to have a little demand for her daughter-in-law." Fang Pingying knew that Luo Zhiyong also saw Chen's mother's attitude, so she asked, she comforted, "Fortunately, Chen Jie also expressed his attitude, they will live in the army in the future, as long as they don't live with their in-laws, there should be no big problem." ”

Luo Zhiyong nodded, he didn't care much about these things before, as long as Fang Pingying said it was good, it would be good.

Fang Pingying said this because she had seen too much of the relationship between her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and she had also seen through some things.

Between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, she has never seen how well the two really get along, as if the mother-in-law has never been 100% satisfied with her daughter-in-law.

In their eyes, no matter how unreliable their son is, their daughter-in-law is always unworthy of their son.

Just like her and Luo Zhiyong, just because Luo Zhiyong has a slightly better job, in Zhou Yunmei's opinion, she is the one who married Luo Zhiyong for nothing, when she was in the countryside, Zhou Yunmei always looked down on her.

Therefore, like Chen Jie's mother, it can be regarded as a normal situation.

Therefore, it mainly depends on Chen Jie's attitude.

Fang Pingying came here and carefully observed, Chen Jie, this kid usually looks well-behaved and clever, but when he really wants to decide things, he really has a bit of courage and his own thoughts.

It was clear that he could decide what he felt was right, and he didn't allow his parents to question it.

And Chen Jie's kindness to Luo Honglan, Fang Pingying sees it, so although this marriage is not as perfect as Fang Pingying thought, she has no objection.

In the evening, Chen Jie's family arranged for them to rest in their own home, and all the people in their own family went to live at their relatives' houses.

Chen Jie's house has a total of three rooms, Luo Honglan and Yu'er live in one, Chen Jie and Cheng Fei live in one, and the remaining big house is arranged for Luo Zhiyong and Fang Pingying to sleep with their two children.

The house was arranged by Chen Jie's mother, Fang Pingying naturally did not object in person, she originally planned to change it after everyone left, let Yu'er and Luo Honglan come to her room, and Luo Zhiyong went to sleep in that room by himself.

But after everyone left, Luo Honglan and Yu'er's two girls immediately entered the house, no matter how Fang Pingying knocked, the two of them just wouldn't open the door. (To be continued.) )
