Chapter 448 Discussing Zhou Ziyi's Marriage
After the interview, Qin Jingru nervously pulled He Yuzhu and asked, "Brother Zhu, what do you think of my performance today?"
He Yuzhu smiled and touched her head. "You performed very well today. I am very proud of you."
Qin Jingru smiled sweetly and leaned into He Yuzhu's arms, hoping that this interview would bring her more attention.
......
When He Yuzhu was having dinner at Liu Lan's house, Zhou Ziyi suddenly spoke to them.
"Dad, Mom, Ye Zi and I have already found a house to move out of. We plan to move there after we get married."
He Yuzhu and Liu Lan looked at each other and then asked, "Ziyi, when do you plan to marry Ye Zi? What do you need your parents to do for you? Our two families haven't met yet."
"I have already discussed this with Ye Zi, and we plan to get the marriage certificate in a month. So this weekend, I hope you, Mom and Dad, can take some time to have a meal with Ye Zi's mom."
Zhou Ziyi looked at the two of them and said, "The customs here in Hong Kong are somewhat different from those in our city. Mother Ye has already told us about this. I just want to ask if you two elders have any opinions?"
"What custom is that? Ziyi, can you tell us about it?" Liu Lan asked.
"You need to propose marriage half a month before the wedding, and give betrothal gifts and various gifts, such as popular gift cakes, gold jewelry, candies, wine, and tea. The number of gifts must be even."
Zhou Ziyi said: "This is called the gift-giving ceremony. The next step is to hold a wedding banquet, but Ye Zi doesn't have many relatives, so it mainly depends on us."
"These are not difficult to do. You young people can make the decision, and your mother and I will follow suit." He Yuzhu said.
"Thanks, Dad. Let's plan a meal this weekend. I'll arrange the location."
"Okay." He Yuzhu and Liu Lan nodded.
On the weekend, He Yuzhu and Liu Lan wore formal clothes and went to the restaurant booked by Zhou Ziyi.
Zhou Ziyi chose a mid- to high-end Hong Kong-style restaurant. When He Yuzhu and others arrived, Xu Yezi and her mother were already waiting in the private room.
"Hello, uncle and aunt." Xu Yezi immediately stood up and greeted the two of them when she saw them. Her mother also stood up, looking a little reserved.
The years have left deep marks on this mother, and it seems that they and their son are leading a hard life.
But even so, it can be seen that Xu Yezi's mother must have been a beauty when she was young.
"Sorry, we're late." He Yuzhu introduced to Xu Yezi's mother: "My last name is He, and I'm Ziyi's father. This is Ziyi's mother, and her last name is Liu. I wonder what we should address each other as in-laws?"
He Yuzhu asked with a smile: "I am calling you my relative now, do you mind?"
"No problem, no problem." Xu Yezi's mother waved her hand immediately, "My last name is Xu, and I'm Yezi's mother."
After the two sides introduced themselves to each other, they sat down.
He Yuzhu said: "My dear relatives, Ye Zi is a good child, and our Ziyi is also a good child, so I support them being together.
We are new to Hong Kong and are not very familiar with the local customs. If you have any requests, please feel free to ask and we will do our best to meet them."
Xu Yezi's mother looked at Xu Yezi kindly, and then said: "My dear, I raised Yezi by myself, so I just hope she can be happy.
Ziyi has already conveyed your family's sincerity. We don't have any special requirements. As long as the two children live a good life, that's enough."
He Yuzhu nodded slightly, and Liu Lan said kindly: "My dear relatives, don't worry, when Ye Zi marries into our family, we will definitely treat her like our own daughter. Ziyi and Ye Zi are both sensible children, I believe they will support each other and create a happy family together."
Xu Yezi listened to the words of the two elders, tears of emotion flashing in her eyes. She turned to look at Zhou Ziyi, and their eyes met in the air, silently revealing their deep love and vision for the future.
At this time, the waiter knocked on the door gently and brought a series of exquisite Hong Kong-style delicacies to the table.
He Yuzhu raised his glass first and said with a smile: "Today is a festive day. It is a rare fate for our two families to sit together and witness the happiness of Ziyi and Ye Zi. I propose that we raise our glasses together and wish Ziyi and Ye Zi a happy life in the future, and also wish that our two families can live in harmony and be as close as one family."
Everyone raised their glasses, and the crisp sound of clinking glasses rang out in the box. The atmosphere became increasingly lively, accompanied by laughter and joy.
Xu Yezi's mother also gradually relaxed from her initial restraint.
Zhou Ziyi's parents' attitude also made Xu Yezi's mother very satisfied.
She knew that Ye Zi had found a family worthy of entrusting her life to, and would not follow in her footsteps...
After the meeting, He Yuzhu and Liu Lan began to prepare for Zhou Ziyi's wedding.
Although Xu Yezi's family didn't have any special requirements, they still had to prepare well for the things Zhou Ziyi had mentioned before.
