He just said: "She was not here even when your brother was engaged..."

"But what you said makes sense. Anyway, you can still set up another table when you go to Shanghai. Likewise, she can't follow us to Shaozhou."

"..."

…………

…………

On the 4th, after lunch, Land Rover and Santana left Maoba one after another.

Twenty minutes later, we took the provincial highway from near Huajia.

Then go all the way south.

After five and a half hours and nearly 450 kilometers, we finally arrived in Shaozhou in the evening.

Although Ms. Lin Feng said that Fang Nian did not need to take care of it, Fang Nian was still handling matters such as hotel reservations.

After all, only seniors have a say in the comfort level in all aspects of life.

After settling down in Shaozhou, Ms. Lin Feng officially gave Fang Nian instructions on what to do.

"Wear more formal clothes tomorrow, don't look too casual like you are now."

"There is no matchmaker, so you have to be more particular."

"Whenever a man takes the initiative to smoke, it has nothing to do with whether you smoke or not."

"The customs here in Shaozhou are slightly different. There may be relatives from Lu Weiyu's family present."

"Speak less, be sure to speak less."

"When it's your turn to speak, it must be when there are only two of us."

"Be able to sit still."

"Adults' observation, exploration, curiosity, including joking are all indispensable. It is better to talk less."

"..."

"..."

He rambled on and on for half an hour.

Fang Nian nodded in agreement.

The core points are: politeness, civility, patience, sincerity, and practicality.

To sum it up a little more deeply, it’s about leaving a good impression.

Whether it is Shaozhou or Tongfeng, the woman's relatives rarely have the opportunity to see the man.

Originally, Fang Nian thought that this kind of impression would happen during the wedding.

But Ms. Lin Feng made it very clear that although a wedding is very busy and relatives will be present, during the reception, wedding and other processes, although the relatives of both men and women can see each other, there will not be much time left for communication.

However, no matter which custom you follow, there is no banquet for an engagement.

Not even on the man’s side.

At most, relatives and friends will come to the house to sit for a while.

However, Lin Feng and Fang Zhengguo had agreed that they would simply set up a table at home at noon the day after tomorrow.

Probably only Grandma Fang Nian, Lin Li, and Lin Nan will come by then.

Because Fang Zhengbin and Fang Zhengliang are not at home...

The process and precautions were all clear, but Fang Nian was still confused.

I did talk to Lu Weiyu on the phone, but we didn't talk much.

Lu Weiyu's situation is similar.

If it were before going to Changbai Mountain, Fang Nian and Lu Weiyu might still have some hesitation.

And now...

There is no such word as 'hesitate'.

What I felt was an inexplicable feeling of discomfort.

after all……

This simple process is called: Engagement.

After this simple process, Fang Nian will become Lu Weiyu's fiancé, and Lu Weiyu will become Fang Nian's fiancée.

So that this night, Fang Nian, who came to Shaozhou for the first time in his life, suffered from insomnia for a long time.

To know that the memory of insomnia can be traced back to the previous life.

Tossing and turning, tossing and turning, and finally fell asleep.

So early the next morning, Fang Nian got up and exercised hard to regain his good energy.

…………

5th, the 25th day of the sixth lunar month.

According to the combined horoscopes of Fang and Lu, it is the most suitable day for Fang and Lu Weiyu to get engaged in the past three months.

At around nine o'clock in the morning, Comrade Fang Zhengguo drove Lin Feng and Fang Nian to the Lu family in a Land Rover.

Fang Nianzhi knew the address of the Lu family. He knew it in his previous life, but he had never been there.

So there is no sense of familiarity.

On the contrary, Fang Zhengguo looked familiar and had a very good sense of direction.

At almost ten o'clock, the Land Rover stopped in the Lu family's yard.

After all, the old Lu family can be considered a wealthy local family in Shaozhou.

It is a detached two-story small building with a courtyard, although it is not a front door in the street.

After the car stopped, Ms. Lin Feng got out of the car first and called Fang Nian and Fang Zhengguo. They each carried various gifts that they had prepared long ago and were greeted by Lu Wenlin and Sun Rong. They walked into the old Lu's house.

Fang Nian, who finally walked into the living room, was a little dumbfounded.

Even though he has been paying attention since a long time ago.

There are scenes with hundreds or even thousands of people.

No matter how big the old Lu family is, the space in the living room is very limited, so there can't be too many people.

Not including Lu Weiyu, there were seven people sitting in the living room, including an old acquaintance, Sun Yunyun.

The looks from these seven people made Fang Nian feel uncomfortable.

Because they are all very undisguised and direct explorations, observations, and examinations.

As a result, Fang Nian only had time to glance at Lu Weiyu.

'Ms. Lu dressed up specially today?'

'I took good care of my hair and put on light and dark lipstick.'

'Wearing so many accessories.'

'It looks very heavy.'

With just one glance, Fang Nian felt some small differences in Lu Weiyu.

Fang Nian, who remembered Ms. Lin Feng's words, was a little dull.

No squeak.

I just left something to say to Ms. Lin Feng.

"Fang Nian! Don't be stunned, call someone."

Fang Nian then quickly called out with a smile: "Uncle, aunt, uncle, aunt, hello."

"Sit, sit, sit." Lu Wenlin greeted.

Lin Feng and Fang Zhengguo took the lead in sitting down, and Fang Nian sat at the end.

Rong Sun and Lu Weiyu served hot tea together.

Chatting with each other.

Not long after, there was bursts of laughter in the living room.

"...Oh, you guys came here from Tongfeng, Xiangchu Province yesterday."

"It's quite far, right?"

"It's four to five hundred kilometers."

"My family is pretty good, right?"

"..."
