Siheyuan: Five mouths waiting for food at the beginning

"Dad, don't ask. The identity of my in-laws is indeed somewhat special."

"I am old man, I have said too much."

“There’s nothing that can’t be said,

Grandpa, I am indeed a technician, but my rank is higher, a second-level engineer, working at a national research institute, and the content of my research must be kept confidential."

"Young man, you are a real pillar of the country, a national heavyweight. I admire you.

It is because of you that our country will become stronger and stronger," the old man gave Zhao Shanhe a thumbs up.

Yiyun's father finally understood why the girl said that they lived in a villa and there were guards guarding the door. Each of them is a treasure of the country.

Zhao Shanhe pretended to be cool. "Thank you for your compliment, old man. The old man once said that there is no distinction between high and low jobs, but no matter what profession you are in, you are making contributions to the country.

The old man shouted to Yiyun, "Yiyun girl, go get a bottle of your father's good wine. I want to toast your future father-in-law."

Yiyun came out of the kitchen and looked at his father, asking, "Where is your good wine?"

"Evian, go get it from my bedroom closet. I have several bottles of good wine there. Forget it, I'll just go get it myself."

After saying this, Yiyun's father stood up and went to get the wine. Soon he came out with two unpackaged bottles of wine.

"Dad, my in-laws haven't eaten yet. Is it bad to drink on an empty stomach? Let's eat something first."

"Young man, do you mind having a few drinks first?"

"The guest follows the host's wishes. Whatever the old man says is what's right."

"Did you hear me? Why don't you pour the wine quickly?" The old man directed Yiyun's father.

The old man shouted to An Tong who was sitting in the distance, "Grandson-in-law, come over and have a few drinks with us."

An Tong looked at Zhao Shanhe, and Zhao Shanhe nodded.

An Tong came over and took the bottle from Yiyun's father with great tact, "Uncle, let me pour the wine."

"Young man, come here, let me toast you three glasses first." The old man picked up the wine.

Zhao Shanhe stood up and quickly stopped him, "Old man, if you offer me a toast, I won't dare drink it. You are the elder, and this is my first visit, so how can I let you offer me a toast? I'll offer you a toast."

The old man was also very stubborn. "Listen to me, I have to make this wine. Age has nothing to do with this wine. I really admire you guys who are great at technology.

When I was in the factory, the factory's efficiency was improved thanks to you technicians. You are really amazing.

The level 7 engineer sent by the higher-ups really opened my eyes. You are a level 2 engineer at such a young age, and the achievements you have made are beyond my imagination.

Listen to me, I must toast to you with this wine. It has nothing to do with age or status. I toast to those of you who have made great contributions to the country.

I am an old man, but I admire those who have been on the battlefield and technicians like you. You are the best."

Seeing that the old man had said so much, Zhao Shanhe had no choice but to follow his wishes and drink three cups with him. However, Zhao Shanhe still lowered his glass to show respect.

"Young man, you don't know that if this old man didn't have only this one son, he would have disowned him long ago.

For money, he even sold his daughter. He planned to use Yiyun to curry favor with others. What's the difference between him and those who sold their daughters for fame in ancient times?

I am an old man with a righteous character. I don't know how I could have taught such a bastard."

Zhao Shanhe didn't know how to respond. "Grandpa, the in-laws just wanted the two of them to meet. The child is old enough, so it's not as serious as you say."

"You know about this?"

The old man's words made Zhao Shanhe even more embarrassed. He could only bite the bullet and say, "You know, I came here because I was afraid that my boy would miss such a good girl like Yiyun."

"Yes, Yiyun has been filial and sensible since she was young, much better than her father.

If I do not do well after I marry her, I hope you will bear with me."

"To be honest, old man, your grandson will have his own children and grandchildren. I have also told An Tong that who you marry or what you do in the future is up to you to choose. You choose your own path. I can't watch you all the time. Just don't regret it.

Whether they live a good life in the future depends on the two of them, but I am very optimistic about Evian and I think they will definitely be happy."

"My dear relatives, I will also toast you three cups," Yiyun's father felt like he was sitting on pins and needles. His old man was too disrespectful to him, especially in front of his future relatives.

After Zhao Shanhe finished drinking, he toasted the old man and Yiyun's father, and then gave An Tong a look.

An Tong picked up the wine and toasted to the old man first, "Grandpa, don't worry, I will definitely treat Yiyun well in the future."

After toasting the old man, Zhao Antong toasted Yiyun's father.

"Young man, you have called all the relatives, when are you going to get things done for the child?"

Zhao Shanhe thought for a moment and said, "I came here for this matter. I also asked the two children what they thought. They said they would wait until they graduate before getting married."

I respect their opinion. An Tong is not old enough to get a marriage certificate. I think we should get engaged first and get married after graduation. What do you think?"

The old man and Yiyun's father were silent. Yiyun's father said, "It's reasonable to do this, but my daughter is a boy. If the two of them can't be together after graduation, it will be difficult for my daughter to find someone else.

Of course, I hope that my two children can continue on this path, but they are still a few years away from graduation, and I’m afraid something might happen.

Besides, two young people together, they might do something bad when their minds are hot, don't you think so?"

Zhao Antong quickly assured, "Uncle, don't worry, I have decided on Evian for my whole life, and I promise I won't change my mind."

The old man and Yiyun's father didn't say anything, but looked at Zhao Shanhe.

Zhao Shanhe thought about it and felt that there was indeed a problem. Reputation was too important these days. He also had a daughter, and he would definitely not be happy if it were him.

"Okay, then let's pick a good day to get it done. We can get the marriage certificate when we reach the age."

There was no other way now. They had to agree even if they didn't want to. Unless the two of them separated at this moment, there were many people who got married at the age of 18 without getting a marriage certificate.

"My dear, please don't mind. I am also looking for a favor for my daughter."

"I understand, I understand. I also have a daughter, and I don't want to be so confused."

"Young man, then this matter is settled. Do you think we can hold the banquet?"

"Do it. If you can't get the marriage certificate, you have to hold the wedding banquet and give the necessary explanations."

That's how it is these days. The marriage certificate is not important. Once the wedding ceremony is held, it means that two people are married.

"Old man, my dear relatives, do you have many relatives? If you have many, we can hold a ceremony on both sides. If not, we can hold it in Sijiu City, and I will arrange for all your relatives to come.

By the way, you can also stroll around the city. I will cover the food and accommodation. It just so happens that I have hotels on hand.

As for the betrothal gift, how much do you think is appropriate?"
