After being reborn, I decisively broke off my engagement and married a cold-faced military young mas

Chapter 265 Both sets of parents went to Nancheng to discuss the wedding arrangements.

She was intimidated as soon as she heard about ginseng.

"That one that grants immortality?"

Lin Yuyao: “…”

"Mom, what nonsense are you talking about? It's just a tonic. You should watch less TV."

"I was just saying, honey, he gave such an expensive gift, when are you two planning to get married?"

"He's already taken his wedding leave. If possible, let's hold the wedding banquet this month."

Good heavens, it really is just as Lin Ping said.

"This month is going by way too fast! Both sets of parents need to sit down and discuss it. We don't even know what his parents think, whether they approve of you, or whether this marriage will actually happen. Marriage is a matter for two families, not just the two of you. How can you decide that on your own?"

Ye Lian simply cannot accept the current promotion of the concept of free love and free marriage.

She thinks it's okay to choose your own partner, but she thinks it's not okay to choose your own partner for marriage.

Lin Yuyao thought for a moment and said, "We plan to get married in Nancheng, but neither of our parents live there. So we plan to bring you all to Nancheng, find a hotel, and we can sit down and talk slowly."

Ye Lian nodded, then sighed and said, "When you're looking for a partner, his family should come with a matchmaker and elders to propose marriage. We should also visit their home once to help you check out their place."

It would have been fine if it were near our home, but you insisted on finding one so far away. Both of you have left your families to live in another city, so this constant travel is definitely inconvenient.

Of course, this is good too. Not living with your in-laws will reduce conflicts. From now on, you can live your own lives, so it doesn't matter whether you go to visit the house or not.

Now that the harvest season is over, your father and I have some free time. We'll go to the south of the city with you to discuss this marriage properly. However, I still think getting married this month is too rushed. Let's finalize the arrangements first and then get married next year.

"He might not have time to get married next year."

Ye Lian: "Why don't you have time?"

"They have a lot of tasks next year, and the leaders specifically instructed that no one should be given leave next year."

"What about the year after next?"

Lin Yuyao actually knew what secret mission they were going to carry out, which was very important to China and that they would succeed.

But it's confidential now, so she can't say.

Therefore, they could only use Fu Huaiyi's explanation: "No one can guarantee that it can be done next year; it's an extremely complex task. If we can't do it, we'll try again the year after. If we still can't do it the year after that..."

"Should we continue the year after next?" Ye Lian chimed in.

Lin Yuyao nodded.

Ye Lian said, "That would be a long time coming. A girl's youth is short, and we can't afford to wait that long."

In their rural hometown, young people in this era get married very early. Girls who are over 24 and not married are considered old maids, and boys who are over 26 and not married are called bachelors.

Ye Lian was quite anxious when she heard that she might have to wait several years to get married.

Lin Yuyao said, "So we plan to get married in the first half of the year."

Ye Lian frowned and thought for a while before nodding gently, "Alright, let's have the two families sit down and discuss it together. If there aren't any major problems, we'll finalize the marriage and hold the wedding banquet at the same time."

Special cases are handled specially; she made a concession for her daughter's sake.

"Ye Lian, is Ye Lian home?"

Upon hearing the sound, Ye Lian urged Lin Yuyao, "Quickly, take the food inside."

Lin Yuyao: "Mom, what's going on? They're probably just asking for some candy."

"Oh dear, I'm not giving this to them. This is a gift from Xiao Fu, I'm keeping it for myself. Don't worry, I was prepared."

Ye Lian agreed while hurriedly stuffing the food into Lin Yuyao's hands, telling her to take it inside.

Lin Yuyao had just entered the house when a neighbor who had come to visit came in.

After all, word had spread that Lin Yuyao had brought her boyfriend home. Now that everyone had just finished lunch, the neighbors would definitely come over to visit, mainly to see what Lin Yuyao's boyfriend looked like.

"Hey, why are you all alone? Where are your Yuyao and her boyfriend?"

Just then, Lin Yuyao came out.

"Auntie, I'm here."

"Oh my, Yuyao." The aunt looked Lin Yuyao up and down for a long time, and clicked her tongue and said, "Beautiful, look at this girl, she has grown even more beautiful."

Lin Yuyao smiled shyly, "Thank you, Auntie."

Ye Lian smiled and urged her to sit down quickly, while she went to get the melon seeds, peanuts, and candies she had prepared earlier, filling a large plate to the brim.

"Here, have some candy, it's sweet."

"Oh, you're being so polite."

She took a candy, unwrapped it, popped it into her mouth, and kept saying how sweet it was.

"By the way, where's Yuyao's boyfriend? I haven't seen him."

"I went out to buy some things with Dawei. You can sit for a while. We'll be back soon."

"it is good."

Just then, another person arrived at the door.

They were all village wives who had a good relationship with Ye Lian.

Before long, five or six people who had come to see their son-in-law were sitting in the room.

Ye Lian warmly greeted them, offering them candy, peanuts, and melon seeds, and they chatted happily.

Just then, a sound came from outside; it was Lin Dawei and Fu Huaiyi returning with cement.

Ye Lian quickly stood up and said, "It's Dawei who's back."

The two men brought back three bags of cement. That truck was really good at carrying heavy loads; three bags of cement weighed 300 pounds, and they were fine with it.

Seeing that Fu Huaiyi was about to unload the goods with Lin Dawei, Ye Lian stepped forward and said, "Little Fu, you go inside, I'll carry it."

"It's okay, I can handle it."

"Oh dear, your clothes are clean, don't get them dirty later."

Lin Dawei pushed Ye Lian away and said, "Don't get involved, I'll handle it. This stuff makes my skin itchy."

After saying that, Lin Dawei carried a bag of cement to the backyard.

Seeing that Ye Lian had grown taller, she also carried a bag.

Fu Huaiyi was astonished. He remembered that the cement weighed 100 jin (50 kg). It was one thing for his father-in-law to be able to carry 100 jin easily, but how could his mother-in-law carry it so easily as well?

Could it be that the shop owner's scale is faulty?

He carried the last bag, but when he tried, it was indeed heavy, definitely weighing a hundred pounds.

Finally, the three of them each carried a bag of cement to the backyard.

Ye Lian has worked in the countryside for a long time, and she came from the era when people earned work points. Her strength is incomparable to that of city dwellers.

She carried 100 pounds without hesitation.

……

Everyone finally met Lin Yuyao's new boyfriend.

Even though they only met once, some people still recognized him.

"Hey, I think I've seen you before."

Cough!

Fu Huaiyi awkwardly touched his nose.

"You're the one..." After thinking for a moment, she remembered, "You came here last year, right? At the Lu family's house. I think you were Lu Jiangting's friend, there to attend their wedding banquet, right?"

After her reminder, everyone suddenly realized what she meant.

“Yes, that’s him.” Another person pointed at Fu Huaiyi and said, “Two young men from out of town came at the time, and you were one of them.”
