“I wasn’t considerate enough.”Song Mian admitted his mistake.
“As the man, how could you take the initiative to ask for a different gift?”Yun Xiangxiang rolled her eyes at him.
The narrow-minded people would definitely think that song Mian was still thinking on the man’s side, but Yun Xiangxiang wouldn’t. He knew that song Mian must have considered these things a lot.
According to the specifications, this gift could not be any lower on his side. He was taking great care of her side.
Red Wine, chocolate, and honey. As long as her relatives and friends did not look into it, they probably would not know the price and would only treat it as an ordinary item. That set of skincare products was not a luxury that her parents’friends would be willing to spend.
However, this set of luxury products could be said to be Yun Xiangxiang’s wedding, sponsored by the brand. After all, she was the spokesperson for the brand.
“A considerate girlfriend is the most attractive.”Song Mian’s eyes were filled with a smile that covered his face.
Yun Xiangxiang could not help but give him a kiss on the cheek, then, she pointed at the accompanying gift box and said, “This kind of mahogany accompanying gift box, our entire wedding is Chinese style. Then, we will customize a batch of traditional wedding cakes. As long as they are delicious, we will put two pieces on it.
“What do you think of it with a carved wooden comb and a fragrance pouch?”
Wedding cakes were indispensable to the traditional Chinese wedding customs. It was a festive occasion.
The meaning of the comb was: tie the hair together and use the comb as a gift.
Fragrance pouches were also a gift to convey love in ancient times.
“The wedding gifts here must be in pairs.”Song Mian felt that Yun Xiangxiang’s arrangement was very good. “Add a silk handkerchief and embroider a lotus flower.”
“Okay.”Yun Xiangxiang felt that this gift was really too perfect. “You make the decision on the man’s side.”
Song Mian smiled and nodded. “I asked father to specially make an incense pill for us. What kind of flower do you like?”
“How about peony?”Yun Xiangxiang’s first reaction was actually a lotus flower.
This was because in ancient times, the symbol of love was the lotus flower. However, the lotus flower was a rare treasure among lotuses and was extremely difficult to cultivate. There were definitely not many in existence.
There were also lilies, which meant that they would be together for a hundred years. However, when the lilies entered the fragrance, they would have a aphrodisiac effect.
The peony was also an ancient flower that symbolized love. It meant that love would last forever.
“The peony is good.”Obviously, song Mian also knew the meaning of the peony. He looked at Yun Xiangxiang with a gaze that was especially affectionate. It was like a web of love threads that tightly wrapped around Yun Xiangxiang.
After settling these things, Yun Xiangxiang brought the ugly son-in-law, Song Mian, to meet her in-laws.
After su xiuling and Yun Zhibin returned, they began to prepare.
Yun Xiangxiang was about to graduate. In the eyes of the general public, it was the most appropriate age for a girl to graduate from university and get married.
Su xiuling had already arranged everything. Yun Xiangxiang and the others had come back to rest for two days.
First, they had a meal with Yun Zhibin’s relatives. It was not scheduled for the weekend, but the elders had come.
The children were still studying. This was also the result of Yun Zhibin and Su Xiuling’s discussion. It was inevitable that someone would leak the news.
On the adults’side, Yun Zhibin had already informed Yun Xiangxiang in advance. He hoped that Yun Xiangxiang would not tell anyone that she was doing well.
After all, when it came to marriage, there would always be variables before the final step. If they were to spread the news in advance, if something happened, wouldn’t they be giving their juniors a hard time?
Yun Xiangxiang was closer to Yun Zhibin’s people because they often moved around, and they were all in the same city.
Yun Xiangxiang was busy with her grandmother’s people. She was busy with her studies and filming. Other than greeting the elderly during the holidays, she would only contact her uncles and aunts when she saw them or if she needed help, it seemed a little far away.
The first meal was quite harmonious. The uncles and aunts asked about Song Mian’s occupation, income, and family members.
It was just a normal concern, especially since song Mian’s grandmother liked song Mian.
Although Qin song Mian did not cure her rheumatism, it did not hurt as much after she recuperated personally.
She was still using song Mian’s prescription to treat her rheumatism, and her legs were getting faster and faster.
Most importantly, Song Mian would call him every now and then to greet him. He was even more considerate than his son.
With his grandmother around, not to mention the other uncles and aunts, even Yun Zhibin and Su Xiuling could not be too picky with song Mian. Otherwise, the old man would be the first to disagree.
Just like at this moment, Yun Zhiwen asked, “Little song, when do you plan to propose?”
According to the tradition here, after acknowledging a relative, the marriage proposal would be made very soon. That was why Yun Zhiwen asked this question.
Of course, Song Mian had to show the image of a good son-in-law. “This matter needs to be discussed with uncle.”
“What is there to discuss? In my opinion, the National Day is the most suitable. However, the children are on holiday, so it’s quite lively.”Grandma Yun directly overstepped her son’s decision.
This made Yun Zhibin extremely depressed.
So now she’s no longer an extrovert, and I’m biased towards other people’s homes!
Yun Xiangxiang wanted to laugh, but she didn’t dare to. She lowered her head and pretended to be a quail. It was only now that she realized the benefits of song Mian winning her grandmother over.
Song Mian smiled but didn’t respond. Grandma Yun looked at Yun Zhibin. “Third brother, do you think it’s not good?”
Yun Zhibin, who was called by name, felt extremely upset. Although he had discussed with the song family that they would be able to propose marriage on the national day, he still felt wronged by being suppressed by his mother.
Su xiuling also felt like laughing. Her mother-in-law had no evil intentions. Although she was uncultured, she was neither vulgar nor evil. She was just a little extreme. If she loved someone, she would want them to go crazy, but if she hated them, she would want them to die.
At this moment, only her precious song Mian, the capable grandson-in-law who could make her suffer less, and her son, were on the side.
Other than giving her some living expenses, what else was there to do?
However, the living expenses were the same as the debt she owed them for raising them. This was what they should give her.
Su xiuling cleared her throat and said, “Mom, we were originally discussing the beginning of October. We’re waiting for Brother song to come and propose.”
“When exactly is it? Has It been decided?”Grandma Yun was still quite anxious.
“When the children arrive at the open road, Brother Song will definitely inform them in advance.”Things had to be done step by step.
Although there were basically no mistakes in meeting relatives, it was not unprecedented.
In the past, there was always a son-in-law who met relatives and an ex-girlfriend. After the relatives met, the relationship would also be ruined.
Therefore, even if it was absolutely safe to meet his relatives, they still had to follow the steps and decide on the date of the marriage proposal after meeting them.
“It makes sense. Remember to inform me as soon as you’ve discussed it,”Grandma Yun reminded.
What else could su xiuling and Yun Zhibin Do? They could only agree obediently.
It could be said that the dinner here was unusually warm and smooth.
Three days later, it was my turn to see my relatives on Grandma’s side. My uncle had opened a small restaurant, and they had booked the banquet here.
