Chen Mei was pleasantly surprised, "When is the engagement?"
"Next Saturday. Your parents said it would just be the two families. We'll discuss the wedding date and process then," Lin Hai said.
Chen Mei was a little surprised, "Is it that simple?"
In the countryside, some families with good conditions have quite grand engagements. With a family like the Xu's, they thought the requirements would be quite high.
"That's what your parents said."
"We'll go and ask clearly a couple of days in advance. If there are other requirements, we'll still have time to prepare," Chen Mei nodded.
"When will we go over?"
Lin Hai thought for a moment, "The house is about to be capped. Let's wait until it's capped. There will be someone responsible for the renovation later. We should tell them more about our requirements these next few days."
"We'll go over on Tuesday," Chen Mei said, "We should say less about the renovation. If we say too much, the nice villa will be decorated in a very tacky way. I need to go to the Magic City to see Qianqian as soon as we finish this."
"Okay," Lin Hai nodded.
......
At the Xu's house, the nannies had prepared the meal.
Lin Chen had also cooked.
But he only cooked a small stove for Lin Xiaoqian.
When Xu Guofeng and Yang Qingyue were not back, he and Xu Mengyao were the masters here. Now that Xu Guofeng and the others were back, Lin Chen's current identity was a guest.
"Lin Chen, let's just drink this bottle today. There's only one bottle left in wine cabinet number one. It's okay, Mengyao didn't take it all," Xu Guofeng came out of his wine cellar.
Xu Mengyao: "..."
Yang Qingyue said, "You usually drink very little. Just collect it for fun and collect it slowly later. Xiaolin, don't listen to your Uncle Xu's nonsense. He's not reluctant."
Lin Chen nodded.
The wine was secondary. The main thing was that his little padded jacket was leaking air, a little sad.
"Uncle Xu, don't be sad."
"Mengyao and I will get good wine in the future and honor you again," Lin Chen said with a smile.
Xu Guofeng's sadness was fake.
When Lin Chen said this, a smile appeared on his face, "That's not necessary. Your Aunt Yang usually doesn't let me drink too much."
"The main purpose of my wine cellar is to store that thing."
"If the good wine is gone, it's gone. I won't pretend anymore. I'm a grandpa now and have passed the age of pretending to be 13."
Lin Chen looked strange.
Xu Guofeng smiled and said, "We're all family, so I'll tell you the truth. I'm not going to collect a little wine and wait for the price to rise, am I? There's no need for such a large wine cellar for ordinary drinking."
"Its main purpose is to pretend to be 13."
Xu Guofeng said and opened the wine.
Lin Chen reached out and took the wine bottle, "Uncle Xu, I'll pour the wine."
Soon Lin Chen poured a glass for him and Xu Guofeng.
"Uncle Xu, I'll toast you a glass," Lin Chen raised his glass.
Xu Guofeng picked up the wine and touched Lin Chen's glass, "We'll be relieved if you and Mengyao are smooth sailing in the future."
"It definitely will," Lin Chen and Xu Guofeng drank it all in one gulp.
Xu Guofeng looked at Yang Qingyue, "Wife, before next Saturday, Lin Chen's parents will come over. Let's have a meal with them next Saturday and Mengyao and them will get engaged."
Yang Qingyue nodded.
He and Xu Guofeng had talked about this matter.
It's just that they hadn't determined the specific time before.
Xu Mengyao was stunned for a moment, "Dad, how come I don't know?"
Xu Guofeng glanced at Xu Mengyao, "You didn't say hello to me before you took my wine either."
Xu Mengyao: "..."
She said coquettishly, "Dad, is this the same thing?"
Lin Xiaoqian was eating while listening to Lin Chen and the others talk.
At this time, she asked suspiciously, "Mom, what is an engagement?"
Lin Chen turned his head, "Qianqian, grandpa and grandma are often abroad, and grandparents and grandparents haven't met yet. The engagement is for them to have a meal together."
"There will be delicious food then."
Lin Xiaoqian nodded, she smiled and said, "Dad, then I have delicious food now. Grandma, I'll give you a piece of meat."
Lin Xiaoqian picked up a piece of meat with a spoon.
"Thank you, Qianqian," Yang Qingyue took it happily.
"Qianqian, what about grandpa?"
Lin Xiaoqian said seriously, "Grandpa, you have wine, but grandma doesn't. I'll give grandma meat, so grandma won't be sad."
"Qianqian, what about mom?"
Xu Mengyao said quickly.
Lin Xiaoqian looked at Xu Mengyao, "Mom, let dad cook for you after we go back."
Yang Qingyue was amazed in her heart after eating the meat.
She had just tasted the dishes made by the nanny.
Lin Chen used the same meat, why is the taste so different?
"Little unconscionable, mom dotes on you for nothing," Xu Mengyao curled her lips.
Xu Guofeng smiled without saying a word.
"Greedy mom, I'll give you a piece," Lin Xiaoqian looked like she couldn't stand you.
Yang Qingyue said happily, "Qianqian, where did you learn this?"
Lin Xiaoqian: "Mom said I'm a little glutton. She's my mom, she's a big glutton. But I don't want mom to become a cat, so she's a greedy mom."
Xu Mengyao: "..."
Xu Guofeng smiled and said, "This logic is fine."
A meal was finished in laughter.
It was getting dark.
Yang Qingyue: "Lin Chen, don't go back, sleep here tonight, Qianqian, can you sleep with grandma tonight?"
Lin Chen looked at Xu Mengyao, "Aunt Yang, Mengyao and I originally planned to go out for a walk."
"Then you go for a walk, I won't keep you," Yang Qingyue changed her words directly.
It would be good for Lin Xiaoqian to stay and Lin Chen and them to go to a world for two.
Soon Lin Chen and Xu Mengyao drove away.
Xu Mengyao said sullenly, "Lin Chen, in my parents' eyes, you are now more important than me, their daughter."
Lin Chen turned to look at Xu Mengyao.
"Mengyao, you're thinking wrong."
"Your parents are good to me because they love you. Without you, I'm just a stranger to them."
Xu Mengyao was stunned for a moment.
"Think about it, if Qianqian has a husband, we are good to him, is it because we have a deeper relationship with him?"
"Isn't it because we love Qianqian?"
Xu Mengyao stuck out her tongue, "That's true. Husband, let's go shopping, okay? I haven't been shopping for a long time."
"You haven't accompanied me to go shopping yet."
They had gone for walks and watched movies alone, but they had never gone shopping alone.
A family of three had gone to the supermarket and other places.
Lin Chen smiled and said, "I listen to the leader's arrangement. I have no objection even if you pull me to a hotel to open a room now."
Xu Mengyao glared at Lin Chen with her beautiful eyes, "You wish."
Lin Chen drove to the vicinity of the pedestrian street.
He took Xu Mengyao's hand and walked around.
Xu Mengyao is a big president in the company, but now she is shopping very enthusiastically like other little girls.
"Husband, I want to drink milk tea," Xu Mengyao said charmingly.
"Okay, I'll buy it for you."
Soon Lin Chen bought a cup of milk tea and came to Xu Mengyao's side.
"Why did you only buy one cup? Aren't you drinking it?"
Xu Mengyao looked at Lin Chen in surprise.
Lin Chen said with a smile, "This is an extra-large cup. Can you finish such a big cup? Let's drink it together."
"Drink together?"
Xu Mengyao's pretty face quickly turned a little red.
Lin Chen: "A large cup is cheaper than two small cups. You have to be careful in life. Wife, is there anything wrong with me saying that?"
Xu Mengyao snorted softly, "You just want to take advantage of me."
After saying that, she drank it.
After taking two sips, she handed the milk tea to Lin Chen with a red face.
