Chapter 270 I'll get the certificate tomorrow
"Then what are you waiting for? I think the day after tomorrow is a good day. I will call the restaurant in town and book a table and wait for my in-laws to come over."
The Prime Minister's mother didn't even discuss the matter with Prime Minister Yuanzhang, and the matter was decided right away.
Of course, the others had no objection. As for the matter of making medicinal wine, although it was important, it could be delayed a little. The most important thing for the Xiang family right now was the marriage of Du Ruo and Xiang Yuanyuan.
"Okay, I'll call my parents after dinner and ask them to come over tomorrow."
Du Ruo nodded. Given his current relationship with Xiang Yuanyuan, it was indeed time to reach this point.
After the matter was settled, during the next meal, the prime minister's mother picked up food for Du Ruo more frequently.
"Honey, do you want us to go back and pick her up?"
After dinner, Xiang's mother went to book a restaurant first, while Xiang Yuanyuan and Du Ruo walked towards the house where the wine was made.
"No need. My dad just bought a new car not long ago and is addicted to driving. Even if we go back to pick him up, he will definitely drive here by himself. There's no need for that."
Du Ruo smiled, then took out his phone and called his parents.
The call was connected quickly, and my parents were so excited to hear the news that they decided to buy some gifts immediately.
During this time, Du Ruo politely asked if he wanted him to go back to pick them up. As Du Ruo expected, his father directly refused and said they would drive over when the time came.
After finishing the work, Du Ruo and Xiang Yuanyuan started to go to the wine-making area. When they arrived, Xiang Yuanzhang was already waiting there.
"Time is tight, so we should hurry up. Well, let's start with the safflower wine and angelica wine, which have the largest orders tomorrow."
When Xiang Yuanzhang saw the two people coming, he didn't waste any words.
"Safflower wine and angelica wine, the most important function of safflower wine is to promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis. It can be taken orally or applied externally. When making wine, the first thing to do is to process the safflower..."
Xiang Yuanzhang taught very seriously and Du Ruo also learned very seriously. Not only did he learn, Xiang Yuanzhang also let Du Ruo do it directly. Xiang Yuanyuan watched Du Ruo busying around with a happy look on her face.
The day was busy until late at night.
Du Ruo was like a tireless ox. Whether it was carrying heavy objects or carefully preparing medicinal herbs, he did an excellent job. In the end, it was only because old man Xiang Yuanzhang had worked so hard that the work ended.
The next day, Du Ruo started to get busy early in the morning. He not only made safflower wine and angelica wine, but also many other common ways to make wine. Xiang Yuanzhang taught Du Ruo all of them.
Du Ruo is a perfect executor. He can complete everything Xiang Yuanzhang asks him to do meticulously, and without any mistakes in the process.
This terrifying learning speed made Xiang Yuanzhang sigh again and again. If his father had such learning efficiency, he would not have to work so hard.
By the evening, Du Ruo's parents had already driven to the town. Du Ruo and Xiang Yuanyuan went to pick them up and booked a room for them in a hotel in the town.
In the evening, Du Ruo and Xiang Yuanyuan took their parents around the town and tried some local delicacies.
Then in the evening, after sending Xiang Yuanyuan back to the yard, Du Ruo returned to the hotel and booked a room next to his parents.
The next morning, Du Ruo and his parents took their gifts to the restaurant they had booked in advance, while Xiang Yuanyuan's family was waiting in the restaurant early.
Needless to say, the meeting between the parents of both sides was already very happy, and after a few glasses of wine, the atmosphere became even more harmonious.
Finally, some wedding dates and other things were set in this harmonious atmosphere.
Neither party had any objections to the betrothal gifts, banquets, etc. One family named a number, and the other family quickly agreed.
The concept of betrothal gifts and dowries on both sides is that in order to make the newlyweds' life better after marriage, the parents of both sides will definitely leave the gifts for their sons to find good wives.
In addition, they all knew that Du Ruo and Xiang Yuanyuan were capable of supporting themselves, so they felt more at ease.
"Okay, it's settled. The wedding will be held on February 22nd of the lunar calendar after the New Year. If the in-laws have anything to add, please let us know at any time. We will make sure to prepare in advance."
Finally, my dad raised his glass and settled the matter with my husband and mother. According to the Gregorian calendar, it was March 21st, which was about four months away.
"okay."
The father-in-law didn't say much, he just smiled and nodded heavily, and raised his glass to drink.
According to Du Ruo and Xiang Yuanyuan's wishes, the marriage should be low-key and the process does not need to be so complicated. Both parents gave priority to their decision, so they were able to make the decision so quickly.
Otherwise, it would be too troublesome to get engaged and then get married. Most importantly, both parents can't wait any longer.
"Well, my dear relatives, now that the wedding date has been set, why don't you let the two of you go get the certificate first? In this case, hehe..."
Seeing that everything was settled, my mother spoke to the mother-in-law at this time. As for the last sentence, she did not say it, but both parents understood it tacitly. In this way, it would be legitimate to have a grandson earlier.
"That's great. I think tomorrow is a good day. We just checked dates a few days ago and tomorrow is an auspicious day. We can get the certificate tomorrow. Since both our families are here, we can have a meal to celebrate. We will invite relatives and friends to the wedding after the New Year."
When the mother-in-law heard this, her eyes lit up. Her mother's suggestion hit the nail on the head, and she made the decision immediately.
"This is good, this is good~"
Xiang Yuanzhang was grinning so hard that he couldn't stop. His granddaughter's marriage had always been a concern for him. As for whether it would be sooner or later, his family had no objection, so who could say anything?
"Okay, it's settled, son. You and Yuanyuan will go get the certificate tomorrow."
Du Ruo and Xiang Yuanyuan were originally picking up food for each other, but who knew that the parents of both sides would make the final decision.
"okay."
The matter was settled.
After dinner, after coming out of the private room, my mother immediately went to the front desk to book a private room for tomorrow.
After the wedding tomorrow, I definitely can’t ask the fortune teller to come and invite me anymore.
In the afternoon, the Xiang family took Du Ruo's parents back to the Xiang family compound and showed them around the entire compound.
It was only then that my parents realized that the Xiang family was a family that produced medicinal liquor.
My mother was even more amazed at the size of the Xiangmu Courtyard. When they went to visit the wine cellar, my parents were so shocked by the wine vats everywhere that they were speechless.
However, like Du Ruo, they were after Xiang Yuanyuan as a person. They did not have too many thoughts about the Xiang family's property, let alone any intention of taking advantage of it, so they could only sigh and marvel.
"Yuanyuan looks like she has never suffered hardship. You can't be too polite after you marry into this family. The old house at home is still not very good. I have to go to the town to see if I can get a residential plot. If that doesn't work, I have to buy a house in the town."
However, my father was thinking about something in his mind, and he also regretted not preparing in advance. Fortunately, the Xiang family did not care about these things.
Mom and Dad even watched Du Ruo brew a batch of medicinal wine.
The next morning, Du Ruo drove his father's car to Xiang's yard and waited for Xiang Yuanyuan.
Xiang Yuanyuan wore light makeup today, which was rare for her, and wore a red dress and skirt.
The process of getting a marriage certificate in town was very quick. We just did a simple premarital examination, took a photo, and then took our documents with us. We almost didn't have to wait in line and got the marriage certificate very quickly.
"Wife~"
"Husband~"
The two walked out of the police station hand in hand, looked at each other, then smiled and shouted, "From now on, they are a legal couple."
They celebrated at the restaurant at noon. My dad drank a little too much, and even my husband's father-in-law spoke a lot more today, which was unusual for him. The two in-laws never stopped smiling.
……
"Dad, why don't you leave today? Yuanyuan has decided to take you to the beach for two days tomorrow."
The next day after getting the certificate, Du Ruo's parents hurriedly said goodbye to the Xiang family and decided to drive back directly.
"No, we can go to the beach anytime. I have to go back to town and ask if I can get a piece of land. I discussed it with your mother yesterday and plan to build a new house for you as soon as possible."
Dad thought about it and did not hide it. Although it might be too late in time, it was not a big problem. They had already decided. It was a bit difficult to approve residential land in rural areas now. The more likely possibility was that they would go directly to the town to buy a house as a new home for Du Ruo and her family to get married. In this way, after a little decoration, it could still be used as a new home for marriage.
