Siheyuan: From a technical secondary school student to an academician of a major country

Chapter 106 Marriage
"Uncle, aunt, didn't I tell you this in advance?"

Yu Wenzheng patiently explained, "I went to discuss a meeting with the parents, but it can't be done so soon. I also have to consider Uncle Shen's schedule."

Shen Zhongguo is very busy and has little time to stay at home, so it must be difficult for him to find time.

So no matter what, the arrangements have to be made to accommodate Shen Zhongguo's work schedule, after all, Shen Zhongguo is Shen Yuwei's father.

After listening to Yu Wenzhen's explanation, Yi Zhonghai agreed. After all, the Shen family was not an ordinary family.

It’s still not too late to start preparing now.

In fact, there was nothing much to prepare. The old couple just had to tidy themselves up, make some new clothes, and try to look as decent as possible.

Mainly, I don’t want to embarrass Yu Wenzhen.

"Well, we can go there tomorrow. We can decide the date at will. We can ask for leave at any time, so it will be easier to arrange."

Yi Zhonghai hesitated for a moment and continued, "You can decide the specific time yourself. Your aunt and I have no objection."

Lu Shuqin nodded without saying anything, obviously agreeing.

Yu Wenzhen was deeply moved.

The fact that the two elders could do this for him is enough to prove their love for Yu Wenzhen.

In this day and age, many things in marriage are decided by the man, and few men are willing to compromise.

Although he was touched, Yu Wenzhen did not say any words of thanks.

After all, we are a family. There are some things that don’t need to be said. Just be more filial to your elders in the future.

……

The next day.

Today is Sunday, which happens to be the day when the steel mill is closed for holiday.

The school was also on holiday at this time, so Shen Yuwei must be at home too.

Yu Wen Zheng set out for the Shen family and bought some snacks on the way, including Shen Yuwei's favorite candied haws.

After arriving at the Shen family, Yu Wenzhen entered the house carrying his things and ran into Shen Yuwei's mother.

Sun Yanqiu glared at Yu Wenzhen helplessly, blaming him for spending money recklessly again.

Yu Wenzhen didn't dare to say anything and could only smile awkwardly.

"Wumi, you're here."

Shen Yuwei, who had just heard the noise, ran out. Seeing Yu Wenzhen coming, she was as happy as a rabbit and jumped over.

Yu Wen Zheng smiled at her but didn't dare to get too close.

After all, this is at the Shen family, and the parents are present. Although the two can be said to have settled down, they can't go too far.

"Here, candied haws."

Yu Wen Zheng handed the candied haws to Shen Yuwei, looked at her lovingly as she took it, and then handed another string to his mother-in-law.

Sun Yanqiu waved her hands repeatedly: "Forget it, it's too sweet to eat."

Sun Yanqiu was not used to it, and Yu Wenzhen didn't want to force her. He looked at Shen Yuwei who was staring at the candied haws, and he had to hand the candied haws to her.

Shen Yuwei's eyes narrowed up when she smiled, and her eyebrows were curved like crescent moons, making her look particularly cute.

"Don't spoil this girl too much."

Sun Yanqiu said something to Yu Wenzheng, then tapped Shen Yuwei's forehead and warned: "Eat too much sweet food, be careful not to damage your teeth."

Shen Yuwei was eating a candied haws and didn't say anything back.

At this time, Yu Wen Zheng was discovered, and both Mr. Shen and Grandma Shen were not there.

He asked, "Where are grandpa and grandma?" "Them?"

Sun Yanqiu tidied up the coffee table and placed the snacks that Yu Wenzheng brought over, then said, "Early in the morning, the old man insisted on going for a walk, and the old lady accompanied him, and she wouldn't let us follow."

"It's rare that Grandpa has this kind of taste."

Yu Wenzheng nodded and said in agreement: "It is good for the health of the elderly to move more."

The three of them quickly sat down on the sofa and chatted while waiting for Mr. Shen and Grandma Shen to come back.

At about 9:30 in the morning, Mr. Shen and Grandma Shen came back.

"Bun Zheng is here."

Seeing Yu Wenzheng, Mr. Shen seemed particularly happy and patted Yu Wenzheng on the shoulder: "Let's go play chess."

Yu Wenzheng quickly stopped him and said, "Grandpa, let's play chess later. Let's discuss a date for you to meet my uncle and aunt, shall we?"

When Mr. Shen heard this, he immediately stopped. He could play chess at any time, but his granddaughter's marriage was more important.

After walking to his own exclusive seat and sitting down, Mr. Shen said, "Wen Zheng, tell me what you think."

Marriage is a matter between two families. Although Mr. Shen can make the decision directly, he also wants to understand the thoughts of Yu Wenzhen's parents first.

"That's it."

Yu Wenzheng sorted out his thoughts and said, "My uncle is very busy, so we thought that when he is on vacation, the two families can sit down and discuss the date of the engagement. But we don't know the exact time of his vacation, so I want to find out the exact time of his vacation first."

As soon as Yu Wenzhen finished speaking, Mr. Shen and Grandma Shen nodded.

They all felt the sincerity of Yu Wenzhen's family. The fact that they were so accommodating to the girl was enough to prove how much Yu Wenzhen's family valued Shen Yuwei.

"Yanqiu, go make a phone call and ask Zhongguo."

Mr. Shen gave direct instructions to Sun Yanqiu.

Sun Yanqiu didn't say much. She walked to the next room with a smile, picked up the phone and called Shen Zhongguo.

The Shen family's phone is different from the one at the steel mill. The steel mill's phone has to go through an operator, so the Shen family's phone is not needed.

After a while, Sun Yanqiu came out of the next room with a smile, and she said to Yu Wenzheng: "Wenzheng, your uncle said that he will have a day off next Sunday."

Yu Wenzhen felt relieved when he heard this.

Fortunately, it only takes a week.

He was quite worried. After all, Shen Zhongguo was too busy, and he didn't want his and Shen Yuwei's affairs to affect Shen Zhongguo's work.

Compared with national affairs, love affairs are trivial matters.

Old Master Shen looked up at Shen Yuwei, whose face was flushed, then looked at Yu Wenzhen, and suddenly smiled.

Mr. Shen is very satisfied with Yu Wenzhen. He is not only capable, but also a good person.

"Okay, then we'll go to the state-owned restaurant next Sunday."

Mr. Shen made the decision immediately, and then instructed Sun Yanqiu: "Yanqiu, when you are free, go to the state-owned restaurant and ask them to reserve a private room for us."

Yu Wen Zheng didn't dare to let his future mother-in-law take care of this matter, so he quickly said that he would do it himself.

However, Mr. Shen did not allow it.

He said that he still had some face and the state-owned hotel would give him face, but if Yu Wenzhen went there, he might not be able to book a private room.

This trip to the Shen family has settled the matter.

The date was set for next Sunday. Shen Zhongguo was on holiday, and the two men of the Yi family and Shen Yuwei were also on holiday, so it was a three-pronged approach.

After having dinner at Shen's house and spending some time with Shen Yuwei, Yu Wenzhen left Shen's house.
