After finishing the meal, Mother Lu was even more enthusiastic and kept picking up vegetables for Xia Xiang. After all, in Mother Lu's opinion, Xia Xiang could not forget to give her son a hand when making money, which was enough for her to use him.
Very enthusiastic.
Although Lu Jianyou was stern, he also valued Xia Xiang very much, at least treating him as an equal. This was evident from the fact that he personally poured wine for Xia Xiang.
After eating and drinking, Xia Xiang planned to return to Dabai Township. Lu Gang volunteered to take him back by bicycle, and Xia Xiang did not refuse.
When he returned to Dabai Township, it was already dark. Xia didn't want to disturb his family, so he quietly went back to his room. But when he just opened the door, he saw Chen Ning nervously opening his eyes.
Big round eyes.
"You...why are you back?"
Seeing that Xia Xiang smelled of alcohol, Chen Ning seemed to think of that night not long ago, and inevitably started to feel a little nervous.
Xia Xiang was speechless for a while, then laughed and said: "This is my home, why can't I come back?"
Hearing this, Chen Ning's face turned red.
"I...I didn't know you would come back today!"
I don't know why, but every time Chen Ning sees Xia Xiang, she is always at a loss.
In fact, she has always been very generous in school, but she often loses her composure in front of Xia Xiang.
"It's okay. You can continue to sleep. I'll go to the main room to deal with it all night."
Xia wanted to know that Chen Ning was so thin-skinned that she would never be in the same room with him again before getting married.
Chen Ning appeared at his home. After thinking about it for a moment, he understood what was going on.
It's summer now, and it's also a busy day for farming. Chen Ning must have taken advantage of the school holidays to help Xia Xiang's parents do some farm work.
Looking at the pair of mud-covered shoes at the door, he had already guessed that although she was not married yet, Chen Ning already regarded herself as the Xia family's wife.
Although Chen Ning is a city girl, she still has the tenderness and virtuousness of a traditional hot summer woman in her heart.
Xia Xiang was lucky enough to be able to marry such a good woman in his previous life.
After giving the room to Chen Ning, Xia Xiang made a floor in the main room. It was summer anyway, so he wasn't afraid of freezing.
"Here, it's a little cold at night."
As soon as Xia Xiang finished laying the floor, Chen Ning, wearing thin pajamas, brought a quilt to Xia Xiang.
The loose pajamas worn on Chen Ning made her figure more and more prominent. Xia Xiang only took one look, and her heart beat faster.
"Thanks!"
Xia Xiang's eyes were so hot that Chen Ning's ears turned red.
"sleep early."
Xu Shixia's eyes were too hot. Chen Ning put down the cup and ran back to the room.
Smelling the fragrance on the quilt, Xia Xiang quickly fell asleep.
Chen Ning, a woman as gentle as water, he would never let himself miss again in this life.
The next day.
When Xia wanted to get up, Chen Ning had already returned to school.
After breakfast, Xia Xiang did not go to the county seat, nor did he plan to go to the scenic spot. Instead, he went to Dabaixiang Primary School.
With Lu Gang present at the processing plant, he believed that Lu Jianyou would not make any mistakes for the sake of his son.
Everything in the scenic spot is now on track. Even if Xia Xiang is away for a day or two, there will be no trouble.
Taking advantage of the time he had today, Xia Xiang planned to finalize the matter between him and Chen Ning today, which would be a reassurance for Chen Ning.
…
Dabaixiang Primary School.
After the class at noon, when Chen Ning was about to go to the cafeteria, a female colleague came to Chen Ning with a happy face.
"Chen Ning, Principal Ma asked you to go to the office."
Chen Ning was confused and didn't understand the meaning of the flirtatious look in her female colleague's eyes before leaving.
However, when she pushed open the principal's office and saw Xia Xiang spreading wedding candies to her colleagues in the office, she immediately understood something.
"Xiao Chen is here, congratulations!"
"Congratulations, Xiao Chen!"
"What a happy event, Xiao Chen."
When Chen Ning, the real owner, appeared, Principal Ma announced in front of everyone: "Let me introduce to everyone, this is Xia Xiang, who is also Chen Ning's boyfriend."
"Xiao Xia came today specifically to propose marriage to Chen Ning."
Propose marriage!
Although Chen Ning had already decided to marry Xia Xiang, when this moment actually came, she was still a little dazed.
Xia Xiang seemed to notice Chen Ning's confusion and glanced at Chen Ning encouragingly through the crowd.
"Everyone knows that Chen Ning's hometown is in the provincial capital, and no one at home is here, so our school is regarded as Chen Ning's natal family."
"Xiao Xia, you heard me. Please don't bully our Xiao Chen in the future, otherwise our natal family members will not be easy to mess with."
As soon as Principal Ma said this, the teachers in the office immediately began to boo.
"Don't be afraid, Xiao Chen. We will support you in the future, so Xiao Xia won't dare to bully you!"
"That's right!"
Under the cheers of everyone, Chen Ning was pushed to Xia Xiang's side. As soon as he touched Xia Xiang's half-smiling eyes, Chen Ning immediately blushed and lowered his head.
Xia Xiang didn't take it seriously and said in public: "Thank you leaders for your concern. I will treat Chen Ning well in the future and will not let her suffer any injustice."
"Look at Xiao Xiaduo, don't tell me how to talk. If they stand together, they really look like a talented man and a beautiful woman."
"Xiao Xia, Teacher Chen is the best teacher in our Dabaixiang Primary School. She is beautiful and virtuous. How many gifts have you prepared?"
As long as we are human, we are bound to have a gossip mentality.
Chen Ning is the most beautiful flower in Dabaixiang Primary School. Many people are also curious about how much gift Xia wants to spend on her.
Fortunately, Xia Xiang was well prepared. Facing the curiosity of everyone in the office, he said generously: "Chen Ning is the best woman I, Xia Xiang, have ever seen. In order to marry her back home, of course I will give everything I have."
"For this reason, I have prepared a bride price of eight hundred and eighty-eight yuan, as well as four major wedding items, none of which will be missing."
"Chen Ning is the best woman I have ever met in my life, and she deserves the best gift."
Wow!
When Xia wanted to announce the bride price in public, the whole office became silent.
Eight hundred and eighty-eight betrothal gifts.
The four major things to do when getting married.
With such a generous betrothal gift, let alone the entire Dabai Township, even if you look at the entire Wangjiang County, you can hardly find anyone with such a gift.
Whoosh!
Almost all the women in the office instantly stared at Chen Ning with envy and jealousy.
"Oh my god, with the eight hundred and eighty-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-dollar gift and the four major wedding items, Chen Ning is so happy."
"If anyone is willing to give me such a generous gift, I can't wait to marry him right away."
"Xia Xiang is really willing to give up such a large betrothal gift."
"I'm so envious. If someone could use such a generous gift when I get married, I'd be very happy."
Even Chen Ning couldn't help but feel that his vanity was greatly satisfied when he felt the gazes around him.
Although Chen Ning doesn't care much about the bride price, for women, vanity is unavoidable.
