311, Family Situation
"Mother, don't worry, I came to you to tell you that I want to ask you for some experience, after all, I am also the first time to contact this matter, and I don't know much about it, this time I just came to meet people, and I will prepare the door-to-door ceremony, you don't have to worry about it."
Tell me what you need to pay attention to when you visit the woman's elders for the first time, and if you want to prepare a gift, what kind of gift should you choose? ”
Song Shaoqin opened his mouth to express his thoughts, he naturally knew the situation at home, and he didn't think about letting them handle the door-to-door ceremony. It's just that he has never been in contact with this aspect of affairs, and telling them about this matter is to let them know the progress between him and Xia Ning, so that they have a spectrum in their hearts, and secondly, to seek experience from them.
"What good thing is this talking about?" After washing up, Song's father walked into the thatched house, and when he saw the three of them with joy on their eyebrows, he couldn't help but be a little curious.
Mrs. Song said happily, "You came just in time, we are talking about Shaoqin's family affairs." ”
"Family? Shaoqin, are you and Xiao Ning ready to get married? ”
Hearing this, Song's father looked at his youngest son happily, they are worthy of being father and son, he was thinking about the family affairs of their young couple on the front foot, and the son was thinking about getting married on the back foot, what is this tacit understanding?
“.” Song Shaoqin smiled helplessly, he also wanted to marry Xia Ning now, but now everyone has not stabilized in Baiyun Village, and they don't even have a decent place to live.
How could he marry her in such an environment? Even if she didn't mind, he didn't want to wronged her.
So, it's not a good time to get married.
"It's Shaoqin who said that he was going to visit her mother with Xiao Ning tomorrow, and we were talking about preparing something." Mother Song hurriedly opened her mouth to explain, and the smile on the corner of her mouth never disappeared.
Over the years, she has been worried about her youngest son's marriage, even if she is only going to the woman's door now, she still feels very happy in her heart, after all, Shaoqin never cared about her personal problems in the past, but now she has a girl who cares about it, and she finally has hope for this day.
After they completely settled down in Baiyun Village, they thought that they would almost be able to handle family affairs for the two of them, and she couldn't help but be excited and happy when she thought about it.
Father Song found a stool and sat down, with a little doubt on his face, "Who are the people in Xiao Ning's family?" Speaking of which, I don't know what the situation is in Xiao Ning's house, and I haven't heard you mention it, and now I let you come to the door, but they agree with the two of you? ”
"Yes, it seems like I haven't heard you talk about Xiao Ning's family for so long." Mother Song also looked confused, as if she had just reacted.
Mrs. Song was very calm, "What's the hurry, we'll know when we should know." ”
Hearing this, Song Shaoqin said calmly, "I was also about to tell you about the situation in Ningning's family, when she was thirteen or fourteen years old, her father died in an accident, and her mother remarried a few months later, and then she lived with her grandmother."
But two years ago, the old man also passed away, and now she lives alone, and her relationship with her mother is also average, so she will only see each other on important festivals, because I have been to Ning Ning a few times, and her mother knows about my existence, so I hope to see her. ”
Regarding the 'porcelain basin space' and the 'space-time tunnel', he really couldn't explain it to them for a while, and he couldn't explain it clearly, he didn't experience it personally, even if he told them too much, it might be difficult for them to fully understand.
Therefore, he can only skip the point as much as possible, and say some things that can be said, except for things that are difficult to tell, other things do not need to be so evasive.
They are their own family, not the enemy army they have to guard against, and they are also qualified to know about him and Ningning.
"That's how it is."
Mrs. Song was surprised, thinking about the bits and pieces of getting along these days, she couldn't help but add a little emotion.
"Xiao Ning's child's temperament is really good, I really don't see that she has experienced such a big change on weekdays, and she can grow up like this, thanks to the child's positive heart, she has not been affected by the change."
"Not really."
Mother Song showed pity on her face, she didn't expect this to be such a situation at all, she thought that a person as smart and powerful as Ning Ning, her background must be very good and happy.
I really didn't expect her to lose the love of her parents too early, and she grew up with her grandmother, I think those days must be very hard, without the love of my loved ones, it is always a pity, and it is also a lack for Xiao Ning, which is not something that external materials can make up.
Mrs. Song looked at the eldest couple and said earnestly, "That girl really has nothing to say, it is also a kind of fate for her to come to our house, and it is also a blessing for our family. ”
"Mother, don't worry, we will treat Xiao Ning as a daughter." Father Song hurriedly said that his daughter-in-law here was also quite half a daughter, but he didn't have this identity, so he would treat Xiao Ning as the closest junior to what he did for their family.
Mother Song followed closely, "Yes, I already like Xiao Ning very much, she can marry Shaoqin, you don't know how happy I am in my heart, I can laugh when I sleep at night." ”
Seeing this, Song Shaoqin was also very comfortable in his heart, and he would make her complete the missing parts of his family's lemon in the past.
"Mother, let's get down to business, what do you think I need to pay attention to?"
Mother Song came back to her senses instantly, "Yes, yes, this door-to-door ceremony must be prepared according to the situation of your mother-in-law's family, for example, how many people are there on her side?" What do you love? Naturally, the etiquette of this gentleman is different from that of a lady."
Father Song hurriedly interrupted, "Don't say it, didn't Shaoqin say it, Xiao Ning's relationship with her mother is not very close, and it is estimated that the relationship with her stepfather's family is not very good, right?" Since Xiao Ning doesn't like that family, do you still need to prepare generous gifts? ”
Although he has also read poetry and books since he was a child, he is a military general, and he treats people and things with clear grievances, and prefers a direct and decisive way to deal with them.
In his opinion, for people who are not very close, there is naturally no need to rush with a heart, just maintain an ordinary etiquette relationship, and do not make Xiao Ning feel uncomfortable.
Mrs. Song nodded approvingly, "The boss is right, everything is still based on Xiao Ning's feelings, have you discussed it with her?" ”
Their Song family has also experienced a lot of ups and downs over the years, including the old things of breaking off their relatives, and the Song family is also famous, and many people in the clan have done some things to oppress the people in the name of the old general, so they were decisively cut off by the old man.
Therefore, their Song family has always been right about things and not about people, and they value character more than etiquette.
