Chapter 818: Chapter 818 Strike While the Iron is Hot Chapter 818: Chapter 818 Strike While the Iron is Hot Gu Qianru had been waiting at the gate early on, feeling sorry for the child’s plight; she wanted him to feel the warm affection from the family and help him overco his previous ntal shadows sooner.
In the afternoon, Luo Qiao returned ho as planned, changed her clothes, greeted her family, and then headed straight for the train station with her grandparents in tow, carrying things with her.
By the ti they arrived in Ji City, it was already past 11 PM. When Second Brother Luo Xuyuan picked them up, his face was all smiles, “Grandpa, Grandma, Dad, Qiaoqiao, you’ve all worked hard.”
Luo Haotian said, “Could we not have worked hard? You were so anxious you couldn’t even wait until the New Year was over.”
Luo Xuyuan was a bit embarrassed, “It was hard to get Xiao Ya’s parents to agree, so I had to strike while the iron was hot. Besides, everything at ho is almost ready, and we can still make it after the New Year’s celebration.”
Zhou Guifang reached out to pat her grandson’s back, “You kids, it’s like you think the Xiao Family doesn’t need ti to prepare.”
Luo Xuyuan ran forward a few steps with a smile, “When we confird our relationship, Xiao Ya already wrote to her family, and the Xiao Family had started preparing long ago. I figured we’re going to get married sooner or later, so why not take advantage of the holidays and do it.”
After listening, Luo Daoren spoke up, “It’s not unacceptable. Tomorrow, we will have a heart-to-heart talk with the Xiao Family, as the kids are not young anymore and we do not want to delay their studies. It’s a reasonable decision.”
When they got ho, Luo Xuyuan brought out stead buns, dishes, and porridge that had been prepared earlier from the kitchen. Everyone had a simple al and then went to sleep early after washing up.
The next day, Mr. and Mrs. Xiao got up early to tidy up, having already agreed between themselves: as long as their daughter liked the guy and he was decent, and if the Luo Family were good people, they wouldn’t oppose their children’s wishes to get married over the holiday.
After all, their daughter would be twenty-one next year, and delaying a few more years would make her an old maid. Both were university students, and besides, the young man from the Luo Family had said that he had an inco and wouldn’t let Xiao Ya suffer. They had also heard their daughter praise her future husband for his capabilities.
The Luo Family arrived a little after 10 AM with generous gifts, earning the envy of the neighbors, who all said Xiao Ya was lucky to have secured a university student from Capital City.
When the onlookers found out that the visitors were the grandparents, father, and sister from the groom’s side, they felt that the Luo Family truly valued Xiao Ya. When they learned that Xuyuan’s father was the deputy director of the machinery factory, that everyone in his family had jobs, and that three of the siblings were university students, the envy grew even stronger.
The negotiation went smoothly. The Luo Family demonstrated full sincerity, and it was agreed that the Xiao Family would visit Capital City on the sixth day of the first lunar month. The Luo Family imdiately provided the betrothal gifts on the spot, and the wedding date was set for the ninth day of the first month.
After lunch, Luo Xuyuan went with Xiao Ya to buy clothes, while Luo Qiao took the grandparents and their father back ho to settle in and then went to see Huo Yuhao to get the afternoon train tickets back to Capital City.
Huo Yuhao had already opened his ho appliance store, and business was very good. Even today, on the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, the store was still open for business. Luo Qiao also looked around the store and offered so suggestions.
As for the liaison work with Huo Yuhao’s store, it was Xu Yuqing and Xu Shifan, the brother and sister, who were handling it; Luo Qiao was truly a hands-off manager.
In the afternoon, the Luo Family took the train back to Capital City.
On the thirtieth day of the twelfth lunar month, various branches of the Luo Family gradually arrived ho. When they learned that Luo Xuyuan was getting married on the ninth day of the first month, they all teased him.
However, no one was surprised; after all, it had been ntioned before, just not expected to be settled so soon.
All the items needed for the wedding had been prepared early on, so there was no need for the family to scramble around.
At this year’s reunion dinner, Luo Haotian ended up drinking too much, saying that after the new year their household would have a new addition and that Qiaoqiao, like Jialin, would beco soone else’s family mber, which made him feel sad.
Later, he laughed at himself for being sentintal and ntioned that he had prepared a sum of money for Luo Qiao’s dowry to ensure a splendid wedding for his daughter; Luo Siyuan then helped him back to his room.
After giving his father a wash, Luo Siyuan said, “From now on, you should pay more attention to . They all have people who care about them.”
Ti flew by, and on the sixth day of the first lunar month, the Xiao Family arrived as expected. Seeing the Luo Family’s house and their attitude towards their daughters-in-law, they felt even more reassured.
