Chapter 85
That night, Lin Zhenhua really took some cigarettes, wine and snacks, and went to the Yang family to propose marriage in a serious manner.Yang Xin accompanied him to the commissary to buy these things, and happily accompanied him to the door of the house, and pushed Lin Zhenhua into the room of her parents, while she hid in the room where she and Yang Tao lived together, refusing to come out desperately.

"Xiaohua, what's the matter with you, what's the matter?" Yang Chunshan and Wei Suping asked at the same time, already having some answers in their hearts.

"Uncle Yang, Aunt Wei, I'm here to propose marriage." Lin Zhenhua said, "You see, Yang Xin and I are also childhood sweethearts, we know each other better, and our tempers are more congenial, so I want to ask you to agree with Yang Xin and me. .”

"Agree, agree." Yang Chunshan's face was full of joy, he hurried forward, took the things in Lin Zhenhua's hand, put them on the table, and at the same time pretended to blame: "Look, it's all a family , you don’t need to take anything.”

Of course, to put it this way, if Lin Zhenhua proposes marriage empty-handed, Yang Chunshan will definitely feel a little uncomfortable. This is not a matter of how many things he has, but a matter of rules.

"Xiaohua, in fact, you and I, Uncle Yang, have always treated you as our own son. We are very happy that you like Yang Xin. But, look, you are now a member of the service company. Manager, Yang Xin is still a temporary worker and has a junior high school education, we are all worried that she is not good enough for you." Wei Suping said in a rambling manner.

Lin Zhenhua said: "Uncle Yang, Aunt Wei, I also have a junior high school education, so I can't say what is worthy or not. By the way, I just discussed with Yang Xin. I think she can take the college entrance examination. It may be too late this year." Yes, I will participate next year and strive to enter an undergraduate school, which will also benefit her future development."

"With her brain, she just graduated from junior high school, so how can she get into college?" Wei Suping said.

"Xiaohua said that she would help me review." Yang Xin, who had been eavesdropping on the conversation in the room, couldn't help but interjected. She was embarrassed to face her parents, but interjection is okay.

"Hehe, it's like this." Lin Zhenhua said, "When I was in the army, I studied with a university professor for a while, and my foundation was not bad. You also know that Xiaofang has made rapid progress in her studies during this period, mainly because I gave her The result of making up lessons. So, I plan to take time to make up for Yang Xin. I estimate that after a year or so, she should be able to take an undergraduate exam. "

"Really? That would be great. If Yang Xin can be admitted to university, then there will be smoke on the grave of our Yang family ancestors." Yang Chunshan said happily.

Wei Suping immediately thought of another question: "Xiaohua, since you have such a good foundation, can you also take the time to tutor Xiaotao, he is in the third year of junior high this year, and his grades are always failing."

"Xiaohua said, he will guide Xiaotao." Yang Xin interjected from that room.

"Xiaoxin, what are you doing there, come and talk." Wei Suping shouted.

"I don't!" Yang Xin replied.

"Forget it, she's embarrassed to talk about her." Yang Chunshan said understandingly.

"By the way, when do you plan to do your business? After the Chinese New Year, you will be 20, and Xiao Xin will be 18, and you can get a certificate." Wei Suping then remembered the business, and quickly started planning for Lin Zhenhua.

Lin Zhenhua said: "This matter is not urgent. Uncle Yang, Aunt Wei, we are still young, and the country now advocates late marriage. In fact, it is not too late to get married at the age of 24 or five. I think, since Yang Xin has decided to take the college entrance examination, we Just wait until she graduates from college and then get married, what do you think?"

"How old is that?" Wei Suping asked with some disappointment.

"Five years."

"The delay is too long." Yang Chunshan said, "Now you two are together every day, and there are some gossips in the factory. If this matter cannot be settled, I'm afraid there will be more gossips in the future. We are all like this The old people in the factory can’t ignore this.”

"But, it's really not suitable for us to get married now." Lin Zhenhua insisted.

"There's no rush to get married." Wei Suping said, "Actually, Uncle Yang and I don't mean to urge you to get married right away, but to settle the matter between you, which means getting engaged. What do you think?"

"Engaged?" Lin Zhenhua was a little confused. He knew the concept of engagement, but in his previous life, he lived in the city and had never been exposed to such a thing, and he didn't know what it takes to get engaged.

"Engagement is very simple, that is, invite the adults on both sides to come together, have a meal together, and settle the matter. If you date again in the future, they won't say anything." Yang Chunshan understands this quite well. Yes, like how many daughters I have married.

"By the way, Xiaohua, is there any adult in your family who can take care of things?" Wei Suping asked.

"I still have an uncle at home, my mother's side, my grandparents, and an uncle, very close relatives, that's all." Lin Zhenhua replied. I have seen their brothers and sisters, they are relatively close elders.

"Well, that's good. Please invite your uncle and uncle to come over and preside over this matter. In the factory, please invite some factory leaders. Yang Xin's master will invite you. Su Yongsheng has been good to you in the past, so please also invite him. And ..." Yang Chunshan began to count the people at the banquet.

"Uncle Yang, isn't this too troublesome?" Lin Zhenhua felt his head double in size.

"Dad, I don't want it!" Yang Xin finally couldn't help it, and rushed over from the next room to protest.

"What do you know, this is a lifelong event, how can you not be casual." Wei Suping glared at Yang Xin, and pushed her back into her room.

"Oh, let's do it. Uncle Yang, do the math, how many tables of wine will be set up in total." Seeing this, Lin Zhenhua couldn't hold on any longer. He knew that if he kept going, he would only mess up Yang Xin. It's not good to be a human being.As a person, he still loves his daughter-in-law very much, even if it is a daughter-in-law who has not yet married.

"Not too much, not too much, two tables of wine are enough. By the way, you have a new house now, and the living room is very big, so you can just put wine in your home."

"Forget it, Uncle Yang, let's not tire ourselves out and find a small restaurant outside the factory. Please go and set the standard with Aunt Wei, and I'll just pay for it when the time comes." Lin Zhenhua said.

"That's good too. It's more beautiful to have wine outside. If you make it at home, you may not be able to buy pork liver and pork belly at that time." Yang Chunshan said.

The matter of engagement was thus decided. After Lin Zhenhua went to ask his uncle and uncle for instructions, according to the rules of his hometown, he gave the Yang family 200 yuan as a dowry, which Yang Chunshan readily accepted.He took out another sum of money and asked Yang Xin to buy a new red dress by himself, which was what he should buy when he was hired.

After the Spring Festival, the adults of the two families chose a good day, booked two tables of banquets in a restaurant outside the factory, invited the factory leaders and others, and held an engagement ceremony.As soon as the ceremony was completed, Yang Xin's face was equivalent to a "Lin Ji" stamp, and he officially became Lin Yang's from then on.With this title, there will be no criticism if the two of them hook up together in the future.

During the treat, there was only a small incident, that is, Yang Xin's master Jiang Tiemei was unwilling to come, so Yang Xin who was going to treat the guests was rejected.Afterwards, Lin Zhenhua heard that Jiang Tiemei had a problem with him, and he blamed Yang Xin for his anger, and this opinion was because of Lin Zhenhua's room allocation.Jiang Tiemei's family has seniors, younger ones, and has been applying to the factory for housing allocation, but this time she was not offered a job. Therefore, she is one of the workers who have the most objections to Lin Zhenhua.It is said that she once went to the factory manager and scolded Lin Zhenhua, and even used vicious words such as curbing her father and her mother.

Regarding Jiang Tiemei's dissatisfaction, Lin Zhenhua expressed that he had no pressure in his heart. In fact, even if he didn't get a house and queued down, it would not be Jiang Tiemei's turn.What's more, he earned this house by himself. What reason does Jiang Tiemei have to resent him?As for the words Jiang Tiemei scolded him, Lin Zhenhua was really annoyed when he heard others tell him the words, but he couldn't find any reason to trouble Jiang Tiemei for a while.If it was a few years ago, he probably would have climbed to the roof of Jiang's house, and blocked the chimney of her kitchen first.

Yang Xin didn't like Jiang Tiemei either. In fact, she only learned milling from Jiang Tiemei for a short period of time, and later benefited from Lin Zhenhua's guidance on some techniques.Now, Yang Xin has switched to learning CNC milling machines, and Jiang Tiemei no longer has the status of master and apprentice.When she went to invite Jiang Tiemei, she was just adhering to the factory's credo of "a teacher for a day, a father for life", but since he spoke ill of her fiancé, she naturally regarded him as an enemy in her heart.
