Chapter 179 Modify Age

"What are you looking at, idiot!"

Shen Yulin noticed that Zhou Tian's eyes were staring at her, and her pretty face turned red in an instant.

Under her curved eyebrows, her big watery eyes were as bright as stars and as clear and moving as autumn water. Her straight nose was delicate and small, her cherry-like mouth was rosy without any makeup, and her skin was as white and delicate as snow, as if it could be blown away. At this moment, her cheeks were flushed, adding a bit of charming charm to her.

"Nothing, I was just looking at fairies, Yulin, you know what? When I first saw you, I felt like I saw the Queen of the Kingdom of Women in Journey to the West. At that time, I thought in my heart that I must marry you home as my wife. I didn't expect that my dream would come true so soon. Now thinking back, it really seems like a beautiful dream!"

Zhou Tian stared at Shen Yulin, his tone full of disbelief.

What he said was not false at all. After all, a girl as beautiful as Shen Yulin, who was so stunningly beautiful, had always had many suitors around her from ancient times to the present.

He had never imagined that one day he would be able to marry such a beautiful woman.

Although he thinks he has some talent, talent does not always mean a happy and smooth marriage.

Throughout the ages, so-called talented men and beautiful women are mostly just romantic stories made up by people out of beautiful love.

Often, the truth is even colder and more cruel.

Let’s not talk about Zhou Tian and Shen Yulin being affectionate in the house. Outside the house, grandma and Li Yuling are discussing the engagement of Zhou Tian and Shen Yulin enthusiastically.

After all, according to Zhou Tian’s age, if they want to get married, they have to wait until next year at the earliest. But as they talked about it, they both felt that getting married next year was a bit too long.

"Ah, originally in my heart, I was hoping that my eldest grandson could get married soon, but now that he is not yet of age, I always feel a little uncomfortable, especially since I like Yulin so much. I wish Xiaotian could marry Yulin home as soon as possible!"

"Who said it wasn't true? I am very satisfied with Xiaotian. I also hope that these two children can get married soon so that we can have children. But Xiaotian is not old enough now."

As Li Yuling spoke, a hint of helplessness flashed across her eyes, but then her beautiful eyes lit up instantly: "Hey? Old lady, maybe I have a way to let Yulin and Xiaotian get married sooner!"

"What's the solution? Tell me now!"

Upon hearing this, grandma asked anxiously, her eyes full of anticipation.

"That's changing the age!" Li Yuling suddenly looked excited and said in a low voice, "As long as we can think of a way to change Xiaotian's age, wouldn't it be possible for them to hold their wedding this year?"

Grandma hesitated, a worried look on her face: "Will this work? Will it cause any trouble?"

Li Yuling quickly comforted her, "Don't worry, old lady. There shouldn't be any trouble with this. Besides, the national laws and regulations are not perfect yet, so changing your age is not impossible. My husband has some connections in the government, so maybe he can get it done."

When grandma heard this, her eyes lit up immediately, and she was filled with joy: "That would be great, if it works, that would be great."

As they talked, the two continued to discuss the details in depth, racking their brains to think of how to change the age as quickly as possible so that the children could get married soon.

At the end, Li Yuling patted her chest and said confidently, "Old lady, I'll take care of this matter. When the head of the family comes back, I'll discuss it with him and I'll definitely find a way to get it done."

Grandma held Li Yuling's hand gratefully and said repeatedly: "Thank you so much, Yuling."

With Li Yuling's assurance, grandma was relieved, and the two of them discussed the gift. Li Yuling did not agree with grandma's gift of 188,000 yuan to Li Yulin at first.

After all, the Zhou family had already agreed to their conditions, which was enough in her opinion, and her family was not short of money. But in the end, she couldn't persuade her grandmother and finally had to agree.

After everything was discussed, the two families became more and more satisfied with each other's attitudes.

It was not until Shen's father came back from the market with meat that the two families happily started making dumplings.

After dinner, grandma gave the betrothal gift to the Shen family, and then left the Shen family with Zhou Tian and Matchmaker Li.

On the way home, grandma told Zhou Tian the results of the discussion with the Shen family, and Zhou Tian was stunned.

"Grandma, is this still possible?"

"Why not? Xiaotian, grandma doesn't care. You must get married this year. Grandma can't wait to hold her great-grandson!"

When the grandmother heard her eldest grandson's doubts, she became a little dissatisfied and spoke in a firm tone.

"Grandma, I didn't say I disagree. Don't be angry. I just didn't expect that the age could be changed. Don't worry, I'll ask tomorrow, no, this afternoon. If it can be changed, I'll do it this afternoon. Is that okay with you?"

Seeing that grandma suddenly got angry, Zhou Tian hurriedly coaxed her.

"That's not necessary. Yulin's mother has already taken over the matter and said they will help with it. But grandson, now that age is not a problem, we should speed up the wedding date!"

As grandma spoke, she frowned slightly, and then she remembered that she was only thinking about the gift, and the two families had not yet decided on a date for the wedding.

However, thinking that it might take some time to change her age, she was no longer so anxious. After all, it would only take one or two days to set a date.

After seeing off Matchmaker Li, the two returned home. Zhou Tian did not enter the inner house with his grandmother, but instead walked towards the east wing of the front yard where Chang Wen and Chang Wu lived.

After knocking on the door, Zhou Tian walked in and was greeted by Chang Wen.

The two chatted for a while, and Zhou Tian mentioned that his grandmother had mentioned changing his age to him today, and finally asked: "Brother Chang, do you think changing your age is really okay?"

Although he also knew that the current laws were not very comprehensive, in his opinion, if an ordinary person changed their age, there would be no problem. But he was different, as he was now a department-level cadre.

If he wants to get married, he not only needs to report it for approval, but also go through organizational procedures. If he, as a department-level cadre, takes the lead in violating national laws and policies, wouldn't that be deliberately leaving room for suspicion?

"Master Zhou, to be honest, if it was another cadre, this matter would indeed be a mistake, but if it was you, I think it should be okay!"

Chang Wen listened to Zhou Tian's words and couldn't help but admire Zhou Tian's cautiousness. In fact, in his opinion, as long as Master Zhou didn't make any principled mistakes, there would basically be no problems.

After all, considering the contributions Zhou Tian has made, this problem does not exist at all, and it may even be a good thing.

"Why?" When Zhou Tian heard Chang Wen say this, doubts instantly arose in his heart. Could it be that he really has special privileges?

"Master Zhou, researchers like you have already been registered with the ministry, and your contribution is huge, so we can handle your case with special consideration. Just changing your age won't cause any obstacles for you!"

"That's good. Then, Brother Chang, if this matter is given to you, when can you finish it?"

After hearing what Chang Wen said, Zhou Tian put aside his worries and asked.

"Master Zhou, if you just want to change your age, I can do it for you this afternoon."

Chang Wen thought about it and said directly.
