The time of the next hire was also calculated by the Fu family to the master, saying that it was either 12:8 p.m. or 8:8 a.m. Master Fu asked Teng Zhongqian to choose, Teng Zhongqian felt that they were troublesome, and his words were also a bit ironic about the Fu family's feudal superstition.

But Master Fu explained to him very solemnly, saying that it was this time, it was based on the eight characters of a pair of newcomers, and then selected according to the celestial phenomena on the day of the hiring, which was very auspicious and could bless the Fu family and the Teng family to prosper forever!

Teng Zhongqian heard that one of the first two was big, but he couldn't do anything, so he had to reluctantly choose an earlier one from the two auspicious times that were either too early or too late.

.

On the eighth day of the lunar calendar, although spring has begun, the sky is certainly not comparable to the six o'clock sky in midsummer.

At six o'clock in the morning, it was dark and cold, most people were still dreaming in the bed, Teng Zhongqian had already picked up Mrs. Teng, drove an hour from the suburbs, and went to the hot spring community.

When they arrived, several close female relatives of the Teng family and Mrs. Teng's mother's family, several cousins and friends who had a good relationship with Teng Zhongqian were already waiting downstairs, a little earlier than Teng Zhongqian's notice.

Teng Zhongqian reversed the car into the parking space, greeted a few relatives and friends, and entered the elevator together. The spacious elevator was also so crowded that it was almost overloaded.

Seeing Teng Zhongqian holding a silver-gray aluminum lockbox in one hand, the sister-in-law asked with a smile: "Let me guess, the two lockboxes of the second brother, one contains cash and the other contains gold, right?" ”

Teng Zhongqian smiled, not admitting or denying it.

The friend standing behind him quipped, "It can't be cash." A portable lockbox can only hold hundreds of thousands at most, could it be that Lao Teng married his eldest daughter and gave hundreds of thousands of dowries? ”

Everyone laughed, and they all said that it made sense.

The group got off the elevator, Teng Zhongqian stepped forward to ring the doorbell, and Aunt Wang came to open the door and warmly welcomed the guests in.

There was no one in the living room, so Teng Zhongqian asked, "What about En'en's mother and En'en?" ”

Aunt Wang smiled and said, "The mother and daughter are dressed up in the room!" ”

Teng Zhongqian smiled and explained that Aunt Wang greeted the guests, and then went in with the lockbox to find Li Miaolian's mother and daughter.

Li Miaolian's door was open, Teng Zhongqian went in to take a look, there was no one, so he put the two boxes in his hand on Li Miaolian's dresser, locked the door, and then went to Tang Xien's room again.

In the room, Li Miaolian was combing Tang Xien's long hair.

Tang Xien's hair was long and dark, and it was thick and shiny. In the past two or three years, she has always had such a hairstyle, but in fact, in the two years she was in Guantao, she was permed with big waves, her image was quite mature, and she had a bewitching beauty.

But later, as she left Guantao, she established Collective Thinking, and became her own boss, but she didn't spend too much time on dressing up, and most of the time she was just very natural and casual and delicate, not at all like when she was in Guantao, deliberately concave and mature, wanting to make colleagues and customers feel that she was sophisticated and stable.

Thinking of the previous naivety, Tang Xien wanted to laugh, raised his hand and flicked the long bangs hanging down his cheeks, and asked Li Miaolian: "Mom, do you think I look younger now than when I returned to the city three years ago?" ”

Li Miaolian looked at her daughter in the mirror with red lips and white teeth, sweet appearance, and clever smile, and smiled very satisfied.

She asked, "Was it hard to be a lawyer before?" ”

Tang Xien said "um" and nodded: "At that time in the law firm, in order to cooperate with the time difference of customers, I often stayed up late in the morning and worked overtime. Later, when I came out of the law firm, my work and rest became more regular. ”

"That's actually good not to work in a law firm," Li Miaolian sighed, "If it weren't for your father's insistence, in fact, I would like to advise you not to work after marriage." Take care of the children at home, take care of the housework, and most importantly, take care of your husband. If the family is good, the woman is good. ”

Tang Xien was not surprised that Li Miaolian would say this, she even understood Li Miaolian's tradition, and she didn't rush with her because Li Miaolian said this, but just asked with a smile: "Only by giving up work can you take care of your family?" ”

"Of course it is."

Tang Xien asked rhetorically: "Then don't you think that I have been studying for so many years, and I am resting at home before I have made a name for myself, taking care of my husband with my children, and I am sorry for my hard work in the past?" ”

"You don't always feel that you are highly educated, and being a full-time housewife is not worth it." Li Miaolian's tone was a little anxious, "Actually, if you think about it the other way, you have a high degree of education, a lot of study, and a lot of truth, which can benefit your family and your children." Isn't it worth it if you have a good family and a good child? ……”

She wanted to continue, but Teng Zhongqian interrupted her train of thought with a "Eun En is so beautiful today".

The mother and daughter both turned their heads to look at the door, and saw Teng Zhongqian standing there in a formal three-piece suit, tie, and meticulously combed hair.

Tang Xien smiled with crooked eyebrows: "Dad, you are so handsome today!" ”

Teng Zhongqian walked in, stood behind the mother and daughter, looked at the delicate and lovely eldest daughter in the mirror, and said with a hearty smile: "Today, my baby daughter is engaged, I must dress up handsomely and not embarrass my daughter!" ”

"Engaged?" Tang Xien didn't understand.

Teng Zhongqian explained, and she and Li Miaolian understood.

Because Tang Xien and Fu Shiyu did not hold another engagement before, the day of the next appointment is also equivalent to the engagement day of the two.

It's not that the Fu family doesn't care about Tang Xien, but that most of today's young people, regardless of the man or the woman, have their own careers, the man is busy, and the woman is actually quite busy, so many people have simplified the steps of the wedding, among which the engagement is combined with the next wedding day, and only a few relatives and friends are invited to simply set this marriage.

And the Fu family, because Fu Shiyu's parents are abroad, and the marriage of the two children has been a lot of grinding, Tang Xien changed jobs for a while, and Teng Zhongqian disagreed for a while, anyway, it dragged on and on, and the time for the wedding was already very tight, so he simply integrated the engagement banquet to this day.

As soon as this topic was discussed, Li Miaolian no longer had a chance to persuade Tang Xien to go home and become a full-time housewife, and Tang Xien also left the episode just now.

After combing his hair, seeing that the auspicious time was approaching, Tang Xien hurriedly went out with his parents.

Teng's relatives were sitting in the dining room eating sweet soup, while Teng's friends chatted in the living room and on the balcony.

Tang Xien went over to say hello one by one.

She didn't dress up ceremoniously because today was the day of her next hire, but dressed very simple and casual. A red crewneck sweater with a white crewneck shirt, black woolen shorts with knee-length socks of the same color, and a pair of black preppy lambskin flats on the feet. Looks young, pretty, and energetic.

The relatives and friends of the Teng family praised her for getting more and more tender as she grew older, and Mrs. Teng looked at the delicate and lovely appearance of her eldest granddaughter, and she was also so distressed that her heart and liver were about to melt, so she let her granddaughter sit next to her, and held her eldest granddaughter's hand and didn't let go.

Just after the New Year, this will participate in the happy event again, everyone's mood is quite high, chatting, talking and laughing, it is very lively.

Teng Zhongqian's friends who were smoking on the balcony walked in after smoking, and Tang Xien stood up with a candy box, just about to thank them for coming over to help today.

But in the next second, when she saw one of Teng Zhongqian's friends, she was stunned.
