Chapter 502 (2/2)
”Yes, I just came back from their home Let's go in and talk about it. ”
After Li Hongwei entered the hospital, he washed his face first, and then he told him about his trip to Li Meifeng's house today. Of course, the key point is the engagement. If the old people of both sides have no opinions, he must want to get engaged quickly.
”If you're engaged to Xiaofeng, we'll have to watch a day and go to Xiaofeng's house in advance. When it comes to engagement, Li Meifeng's family will come to our house.”
In any case, we should take into account the situation of the husband and wife, and we should observe the husband's family customs.
However, the only inconvenience is that there is no matchmaker between Li Hongwei and Li Meifeng, so that the parents of both sides are embarrassed to say something, which is not convenient.
Hearing this, Li Hongwei had an idea: ”is he a matchmaker? That's hard to find? I'll go to Xiaofeng and her aunt. She's very nice. She has supported me since I fell in love with Xiaofeng
After listening to this, the second old man of the Li family thought it appropriate. When the next day, Li Hongwei quickly sent a telegram to Mei Xiaoran and said it.
Mei Xiaoran, of course, was very happy. She took a telegram to Aunt Li. ”Aunt, my brother-in-law sent me a telegram, saying that he wanted you to be the matchmaker between him and Li Meifeng. This is his telegram.”
Aunt Li received the telegram unexpectedly: ”let me be the matchmaker? Is it true? ”
”The telegrams are all here. Can they be fake?”
Aunt Li was excited to read the telegram, but she was a little embarrassed. ”I didn't expect that Xiao Wei would want me to be a matchmaker. He still trusts me?”
”I can't trust you. As far as my brother-in-law and Xiaofeng are concerned, you know the best. The matchmaker has to send messages from both sides. If you don't, it's not easy to get engaged My grandparents are afraid that the rules on both sides are not the same. They are afraid to treat Xiaofeng badly. ”
”If you all say that, I'll be the matchmaker, and I'll earn the matchmaker's red envelope.”
After so many years since Aunt Li's son was gone, she had nothing to do with red and white affairs. Suddenly, she became a matchmaker and arranged to engage her two children. She could hardly imagine.”Auntie, if you agree, I'll send a telegram to my brother-in-law and let him do the engagement But we really don't understand the rules of Yuanping county. What you should say first, and then I will let my grandparents prepare for it. ”
Aunt Li told the rules of engagement in Yuanping county. Mei Xiaoran listened to it. It was similar to Kangping County, with only a few differences, and the rules were not complicated.
”Auntie, it seems that our two counties are close together, and our customs are similar. I'll write a registered letter back home
Although telegram was the fastest means of communication at that time, it was too expensive to say so clearly at one time. Registered mail was more affordable, which could explain things clearly and was faster than ordinary mail.
After a few days, Li Hongwei received a registered letter and told his family that Aunt Li agreed to be the matchmaker between him and Li Meifeng.
Grandma Li began to prepare gifts and planned to go to Li Meifeng's house to discuss the engagement.
However, it was not convenient to run back and forth between the two counties. Li Hongwei asked Xu Shao to borrow a jeep. He planned to drive to Li Meifeng's house to discuss the engagement.
Finally, after the discussion between the two elders of the Li family, they asked Li Mingyun and Li MINGYE to discuss the engagement. After all, Li Mingyun is the biggest daughter of the Li family. As the eldest sister, she can't care about her younger brother. Li MINGYE is the most public girl in the Li family. She has a lively mind and a sweet mouth. She has a good way of handling people and waiting for the audience.
On the eighth day of June, Li Hongwei drove a jeep and led his family to Li Meifeng's house in Yuanping county to discuss the engagement.
