Before the car stopped outside the hotel door, Tan Renhao rushed down, he went to Liao Yingyu's room first, but no one paid attention to him after knocking on the door for a long time. After waiting for a few minutes, after making sure that Liao Yingyu was not in the room, Tan Renhao was very worried, and went up to the fifth floor, his room was on the fifth floor. When he came out of the staircase, Liao Yingyu immediately appeared squatting outside his door.

"Yingyu, why don't you go back to the room so late?"

As soon as Liao Yingyu raised her head, Tan Renhao was startled, her eyes were red, and she looked like she had cried.

"Why didn't you call me, you lied when you said you were going to call me."

"I ...... I want to call you too, but my uncle still doesn't believe you when the meeting is held, and I haven't been available to ask him, ......."

"I don't ask anyone, why didn't you call me?" Liao Yingyu's bullish temper even scared her father. However, as soon as she saw the brigadier epaulettes on Tan Renhao's shoulders, she immediately burst into tears and laughed. "You've been promoted? Are you a general? ”

Tan Renhao was startled and nodded hurriedly, he was really a little skeptical that Liao Yingyu had wiped his eyes with chili water, why did he cry and laugh while crying?

"Okay, now we have two generals in our family, let's see what my brother says in the future!" Liao Yingyu immediately grabbed Tan Renhao's hand, "You are promoted to general, should we celebrate?" ”

Now talking about Renhao is really crying and laughing. "It's so late, the shops outside have long been closed, where are we going to celebrate?"

"Right here, you're the Imperial Admiral, and it's nothing to ask the hotel to provide some supper or something, right?"

Thinking that going out to find a hotel now would definitely not be a joke, Renhao had no choice but to agree. Of course, the owner of the hotel was very enthusiastic immediately after knowing that it was Tan Renhao to celebrate his promotion to general. I also went to call a few chefs back, made a few signature dishes of the hotel for Tan Renhao, and finally gave them a bottle of champagne.

"It looks like being a general is different!" Liao Yingyu didn't actually eat much, and she ate a lot of snacks when she was waiting for the call. "By the way, let me think about it. You're now the youngest admiral in the history of the Imperial Navy, right? ”

As soon as Liao Yingyu called Tan Renhao, he felt his head big, he smiled awkwardly at the waiter next to him, and waited until the waiter walked away before he said to Liao Yingyu: "It's okay." But you don't need to help me with the publicity, do you? ”

"Why are you still shy?" Liao Yingyu laughed, and suddenly she turned her head and shouted, "Tan Renhao is the youngest general in the history of the empire—"

"You ......" Tan Renhao really had a headache. If the news gets out. I don't guarantee that he will have to "spend" with reporters for this month's vacation.

"How do you see what no one hears. It's the middle of the night. Liao Yingyu laughed: "You should be fine now, Marshal Nie Renfeng will definitely give you a holiday, why do you stay in Hangzhou or go somewhere else to play?" ”

Hearing Liao Yingyu ask this question, Tan Renhao hesitated for a moment, and he pretended to take a sip of wine. At the same time, he quickly thought about it for a while and then said, "Is Yingyu willing to go to Wenzhou with me to play?" ”

"Wenzhou? I haven't been there yet......" Liao Yingyu was suddenly stunned, she wasn't stupid, "Wow." You're going to lie to me to meet my parents, but you don't even say anything about it now. ”

Tan Renhao smiled bitterly. He quickly picked up the flower in the vase on the table, he was not a flower expert, and he didn't know what kind of flower it was, anyway, it wasn't a rose. Then he knelt down on one leg and held the flower in front of Liao Yingyu. "Miss Liao Yingyu, are you willing to marry me?"

Liao Yingyu was taken aback, and now it was her turn to be at a loss. It seems that she never thought that Tan Renhao would propose to him in such a sudden way on such an occasion at this time.

"Miss Liao Yingyu, are you willing to marry me?" Tan Renhao waited for Liao Yingyu's answer.

Liao Yingyu suddenly shed tears, she was very excited to take the flower, she looked very excited. "Renhao, I didn't expect it, I really didn't think of it, I thought it was ......"

"Don't say anything, you know I only love you one!" Tan Renhao took Liao Yingyu's hand and stood up.

"I only love you one too!"

The two hugged tightly, and suddenly the lights in the dining room dimmed, and then a very soft music sounded, and both of them were startled.

"Congratulations, congratulations, two gentlemen, not a general, congratulations general, congratulations general......" The manager trotted over, and at the same time took out a business card from his arms, "Welcome to our hotel when the wedding is held, I will give you a very satisfactory discounted price, of course, as the Imperial Admiral, we will definitely take good care of the ......"

Tan Renhao and Liao Yingyu were both stunned for a moment, and then laughed at the same time.

"Mr. Manager, I think it's better to give us a little personal space!" Tan Renhao took the business card, "Of course, I will consider that you are here to book a banquet, so ......"

"Of course, of course, if you use it slowly, I won't bother!" The manager was very knowledgeable and left immediately.

Tan Renhao and Liao Yingyu looked at each other and smiled, and then sat down one after another.

"Renhao, you see that my hands are bare, you can't just use a fake flower to deceive me when you propose, right?" After Liao Yingyu was happy, she immediately returned to her womanly nature: "If it gets out, I will be deceived by a soldier and a ruffian with a fake flower, this is so embarrassing." ”

Tan Renhao was stunned for a moment and immediately laughed. "Why do you think I'm a ruffian?"

"Isn't it?" Liao Yingyu pursed her mouth, and then suddenly startled: "By the way, in the afternoon, you took me to visit the jewelry store, are you going to buy me a ring?" I'll say nothing else, I don't want that 12 diamonds, you don't want to lie to me with a fake ring this time! ”

Tan Renhao laughed. "No problem, no problem, maybe the boss will give us a discount. As long as you go back to Wenzhou with me, we will buy it tomorrow morning. What do you think? ”

As soon as she heard this, Liao Yingyu immediately nodded again and again, and at this time, Tan Renhao had to wonder if this woman was a "dragon" in Western legends, why was she interested in shiny things? But I can hug the beauty. Even if you buy ten rings with twelve diamonds and let Liao Yingyu wear one on each finger, it's nothing!

Early the next morning, the two went to the jewelry store to buy the engagement ring that Liao Yingyu wanted, and Tan Renhao chose a very ordinary ring for himself. In fact. This is a bit redundant and at most symbolic, because the Imperial Navy has a clear rule that soldiers cannot wear rings when they are in the field of combat. In the afternoon of the same day. The two arrived in Wenzhou. At that time, the general orderlies assigned to Tan Renhao had not yet arrived, but he asked for a car as a naval admiral. There won't be any problems with that.

"This is your home?"

When the car stopped, Liao Yingyu looked at the small courtyard next to it with a little disbelief. In her opinion, Tan Renhao's family should belong to the wealthy kind. Originally, all the military academies in the empire were very difficult to get into, and even the most ordinary military academies had admission scores much higher than those of other ordinary universities, and if they didn't have a good family background, no good teachers, and no good middle schools. It is almost impossible to get into the military academy. In addition, the system of military academies, especially naval academies, is also different from that of ordinary colleges and universities. Although the tuition fee is free, the cost of various entertainment in the school is much higher than that of other ordinary universities. If you don't have any money to go in, you will be discriminated against. This is almost an aristocratic school. Of course, Liao Yingyu didn't know that when Tan Renhao was in the academy, in addition to his first-class grades, he was indeed discriminated against by many "noble" children.

"Why do you think it's shabby?" Tan Renhao has never felt shameless about his family situation.

"No, no." Liao Yingyu smiled awkwardly. In fact, Tan Renhao's family can be regarded as well-off, in Wenzhou, a place where businessmen gather, it may not be nothing, but from the perspective of the whole country, his family background is already good.

"Let's go, let's go inside."

As soon as the two of them reached the door, the door was pulled open. A young woman who looked to be about the same age as Liao Yingyu glanced at the two people outside the door, first startled, and then looked at Tan Renhao in disbelief.

"Brother, is it really you?" This is Tan Renhao's sister Tan Qinglian.

"Why don't you know my brother?" Tan Renhao immediately went up and hugged his sister, still like he used to be at home.

"Brother, put it down, I'm watched!" Tan Qinglian is no longer a little girl, she knows how to be shy.

Tan Renhao let go of Tan Qinglian with a smile, and then quickly took Liao Yingyu's hand and said, "This is my sister Tan Qinglian." Qinglian: This is your future sister-in-law, Liao Yingyu. ”

"Sister-in-law!?" Tan Qinglian was startled at first, and then immediately smiled and grabbed Liao Yingyudi's other hand.

"Qinglian Renhao often mentions you, I didn't expect you to be even more beautiful than Renhao said!" Liao Yingyu is a beautiful girl, she knows how to talk very well, in fact, Tan Renhao briefly introduced her family situation to her on the way.

"Sister-in-law, you're laughing at me, you're a great beauty, my brother found you, it's a blessing from his eight lifetimes!" Tan Qinglian is also very good at talking, and Liao Yingyu laughed with one sentence.

At this time, a middle-aged woman walked over from the courtyard and said as she walked: "Who is Qinglian, why don't you invite guests to come in and sit?" ”

"Mom, come on, my brother is back, and I brought a sister-in-law back!" Tan Qinglian responded, and then hurriedly said to Tan Renhao and Liao Yingyu: "Brother and sister-in-law, come in!" ”

"What is Renhao?" The middle-aged woman trotted over, and when she saw Tan Renhao in a general's uniform, she was startled at first, and then grabbed Tan Renhao's shoulder in disbelief: "Son, it's really you." The old man is coming out, Ren Hao is back, our Ren Hao is a general! ”

After a while, Tan Jingkang also trotted out, with a piece of rice on the corner of his mouth, and it seemed that he was eating just now. Tan Renhao also hurriedly introduced her mother to Liao Yingyu, but there was no need to introduce his father, Liao Yingyu had already met Tan Jingkang. Later, he introduced Liao Yingyu to his mother.

"Good, good!" Tan Jingkang didn't know whether he was talking about the general's son or the future daughter-in-law, maybe he was saying that both were good. "Come on in, have you eaten? The old woman went to fry a few vegetables, and there were a few bottles of good wine under the bed, so go and get them. ”

The family entered the hall with a smile, and there were several very simple dishes on the table. Now that the empire has begun to implement rationing in the coastal areas, there are some changes on the dinner table of ordinary people, except for some privileged families. However, for the people of the Empire, three meals a day were not a problem, and it was not much of a problem to ensure that they could have a few dishes every night.

"Brother, you sit down and I'll go to the kitchen to help!" Tan Qinglian obviously didn't want to get in the way of the conversation between the two fathers and sons.

Tan Renhao smiled and nodded, and at the same time touched Liao Yingyu below.

"Uncle, I'll go to Renhao too, you talk first!" Liao Yingyu naturally knew what Tan Renhao meant, and hurriedly followed him to the kitchen.

"Ren Hao, it seems that Dad was indeed at fault back then!" Tan Jingkang saw the shining general star on his son's shoulder, and he was very emotional: "Hey, if our Tan family can produce a general, it can be regarded as a glorious ancestor, you go to the ancestors first, put incense on the ancestors, and let the ancestors bless you!" ”

Tan Renhao did not refuse, although the Tan family is not a famous family, but respect for the ancestors, this is a special feeling that every person in the Tang Empire will have. When Tan Renhao lit incense and made a gesture to the tablet of his ancestors, Tan Jingkang also nodded constantly, looking very emotional.

After inserting the three sticks of incense in the incense bowl in front of the ancestral tablet, Tan Renhao came back and sat next to his father, and then told him about proposing to Liao Yingyu and preparing to get engaged to Liao Yingyu first, and then choosing a good morning and auspicious day to hold a wedding. Of course, he also introduced Liao Yingyu's family situation by the way.

After hearing this, Tan Jingkang was overjoyed at first, but his expression quickly became serious, and then he said very seriously: "Ren Hao Yingyu is everyone's beautiful lady, so naturally we can't slack off." Tomorrow, I will go to find a gentleman to calculate, first find a good morning and an auspicious day to get engaged, and I will personally send an invitation to General Liao. Dad knows what to do about adult affairs, and you don't have to worry about other things. It's just that you should also visit a few elders in person these days. ”

Tan Renhao nodded again and again, this is all a matter of etiquette. After a short time, Qinglian and Liao Yingyu came over with a few side dishes, and the two stopped talking about these things, of course, the family was reunited, and everyone was very happy.
