As a result, it is possible to achieve success.

However, this is a long-standing custom. Generally speaking, during the first New Year after an engagement, one needs to take the other half to meet their respective relatives, and at the same time let the relatives know what's going on.

This way, when you send them invitations at the wedding, it won't seem abrupt, and it also reminds them to prepare what they need in advance.

At a wedding, unless there are really important things to do, the relatives of the bride and groom will take out time to rush to the scene and express their wishes on the way to the bride.

It can be precious jewelry or ordinary greeting cards. The value is secondary and the quantity is the main thing.

A gift represents a relative. In addition to blessings, it also serves the purpose of "support" and "supervision".

Supporting means telling the other side: If you treat so-and-so in my family badly after marriage, have you seen all the good intentions? They will turn into an "iron fist to correct the relationship between husband and wife" and hit you at any time.

Supervision is easy to understand: everyone is a witness to your marriage, and if you have a quarrel or get divorced later, it will look very ugly.

It doesn’t mean that relatives will interfere in their marriage, but they will add a psychological lock for the newlyweds.

They are all sending their sincere blessings. Before you two quarrel, think about whether you are worthy of everyone's blessings?

There are also couples who have no confidence in each other and get married secretly. They will not tie themselves up directly, so as to leave a way out.

One possibility of such a person is that he or she always keeps something in reserve. Another possibility is that, like the former leaders of the Five Elements Sect and the Medicine King Sect, their marriage is not supported by their families.

Of course, those who are thinking about running away before getting married are not included.

Heiyang and Hongli have no need to keep any way out, nor have they ever thought about keeping any way out. They also don't need others to stabilize their relationship.

Their purpose is very pure, just for the sense of ritual, to tell the other person that they value him (her) very much.

So some people say that the more relatives come to the wedding and the more lively it is, the more loving the couple is.

Although this statement is one-sided, it does make some sense.

What Heiyang Hongli was about to do was to meet with relatives and elders to receive blessings for the future in advance.

This is a two-way promise. After the relatives call Heiyang, if they don't say anything specifically that they are not happy with it, it means they have tacitly acknowledged that they will definitely show up on the wedding day.

Even if you really are busy and can't get away, you have to ask someone to explain it, otherwise you will be blamed by some gossipy people.

For example, if you can't stand others doing well or don't keep your word, your reputation will become bad!

Of course, after all, he is not their own child, so everyone just recognizes him and is familiar with him. They will not use overly strict standards to judge Heiyang.

Being strict will not make you appear responsible, but will instead give people the impression of being shrewd and mean.

You said that your original intention was to protect your child from being cheated, but few people think that you protected her. Instead, they will all hate you.

This is the same reason why Heiyang Hongli didn't give the child fruit juice. Meddling in other people's affairs will only cause trouble.

To put it bluntly, Heiyang doesn't have to worry about meeting his elders at all. He just needs to keep smiling and say "Hello grandma" and "Hello grandpa" all the way around.

But the truth is that Heiyang is just nervous. Didn’t you see that Hongli is not the character who is “being scrutinized”? Is she also that nervous?

Ultimately, they are still afraid that the elders will talk about their engagement issues. Even if it has no impact on the outcome and they pretend nothing happened, they will still feel uncomfortable.

The most hurtful words often come from close friends and family. But if a random stranger says something bad about you, they will tear down your family tree without fear!

When the two old men patted Heiyang's shoulders with a smile and said that Yingying's Xiaoli would be taken care of by him in the future, Heiyang couldn't describe the feeling. He just trembled a little in his heart, but couldn't stop smiling.

"Hey……"

Hongli blushed and pinched Heiyang's waist, reminding him: "Don't be in a daze, answer the question!"

None of my grandpa's relatives had any weird tempers, so the whole process went as smoothly as expected.

In other words, including the relatives in the royal capital that she had already met, all of her and Heiyang’s elders had agreed to this marriage!

Hongli's face was red and she lowered her head. She was usually casual, but now she was like a little wife. No one dared to look up at her. Half of her body was hidden behind the black sun, and her face was flushed.

As she got to know Heiyang better during this period of time, she was no longer shy when she was with him.

But now, hundreds of relatives are watching her. She would rather stand on the arena and be watched by everyone and win a hundred consecutive games!

Hongli felt very weird when she thought that not only her parents who gave birth to her and raised her entrusted her to Heiyang, but even her parents' parents also handed her over to Heiyang.

Although she was willing, the feeling of being pushed forward, which she could not escape, was different from moving forward on her own initiative.

Nervous, shy, secretly happy, excited...

Hongli couldn't tell how many emotions were in her heart at the moment. What she clearly felt was that the sense of security that Heiyang brought her and her instinctive dependence on Heiyang had reached its peak.

In the past, when she felt wronged and sad, she would always think of her parents first, but now, she thinks of the boy next to her first.

Does Heiyang think the same way?

Does he feel that way about himself?

Do you make him feel safe?

Will he subconsciously rely on himself?

"Give me some encouragement, sister. I can't breathe anymore..."

Heiyang's weak voice came and gave Hongli the answer. He is the same, hehe!

Hongli was happy and patted Heiyang on the back: "Come on!"

With one slap, the strength seemed to return instantly.

Heiyang took a deep breath, raised his head and looked at the two elders, and said seriously and confidently: "Don't worry, leave Xiaoli to me. No matter what happens, I will be by her side and will never abandon her!"

"Good boy."

The smile on grandma's face became even brighter.

"Don't forget our invitations. The old man and I are looking forward to going and blessing you!"

"On the wedding day..."

Grandpa looked at Hongli with a smile.

"Don't be so shy."

"Um……"

Heiyang Hongli agreed softly.

"Have you set a time?"

Grandma suddenly asked.

"Well, not yet, but it will definitely be this year..."

"When do you plan to start planning and preparing?"

Grandpa said seriously: "It's not too much to plan for this kind of thing half a year in advance. Don't wait until the time comes and rush around, leaving regrets in your life. That is one of the most memorable moments in life!"

"Wait until tomorrow or the day after tomorrow to go back..."

Heiyang said softly: "After the first month of the lunar year, when the Spring Festival is over, we will start formal preparations."

“It will definitely be done beautifully!”

Hongli slid out from behind Heiyang and said seriously, "No regrets!"

“Don’t put too much pressure on yourself.”

Grandma smiled and comforted her, "It's a happy day, so even if there are a few small mistakes, it's no big deal. Eight out of ten things in life are setbacks and difficulties, so it's normal to encounter obstacles."

"Whoever dares to hinder..."

Heiyang's tone suddenly became calm.

"Then let it disappear forever!"

Hongli's expression disappeared instantly.

Grandma, grandpa and others: “???”

"Hahaha, I'm just kidding, don't take it seriously, haha..."*2

Heiyang Hongli smiled obediently again.

"Oh, so that's it, hahaha, I almost scared grandma, hahaha."

"Okay, okay, you are indeed a pair, you have such a tacit understanding!"

“Hahahaha…”

.........

"Hi~"

The cousin who was drinking happily with his girlfriend suddenly shuddered, held his chest, and looked alert.

"Oh no, I'm afraid I've finally gotten sick from drinking too much. I suddenly had a palpitation just now..."

Girlfriend: “…”

Oh no, it seems like something’s wrong with her too!

Chapter 283: It is suggested to design a cooling device so that the computer screen will go black instantly when my mother pushes the door. This is a great deed.

"Remember to go to bed early and get up early, don't stay in bed!"

"Got it!"*2

"You must eat three meals a day, and you can't eat snacks as meals!"

"Got it!"*2

"Don't stay indoors all day long. Even if you don't want to go out, you can go out in the yard and bask in the sun!"

"Got it!"*2

"Remember to fold the quilt properly, don't roll it up and throw it in the corner of the bed!"

"Got it!"*2

"You two must get along well with each other. No quarreling, no fighting, and especially no rolling on the ground while fighting!"

"Got it!"*2

"You two, did you really take my words...to your heart?"

Lan Yuying looked at Heiyang Hongli who was standing obediently in front of her with a suspicious look on her face, frowning and thinking seriously.

"Hmm, let me think, is there anything else you haven't said..."

“It’s gone, it’s gone!”*2

"Hmm, is this true or not..."

Lan Yuying rubbed her forehead and smiled.

“Okay, that’s it for now, Mom will go home.

You two must remember your mother's words, understand?"

"Okay!"*2

"Remember to come to our house the day after tomorrow. Yiyi and the others will also come by then, and we will start discussing your wedding preparations."

"Okay!"*2

"Well, you're so good!"

Lan Yuying turned her head to look at the two people who had sent her out the door, and waved with a smile.

"Alright, alright, you can just drop her off here, go back to the house and get some rest."

"Hey!"*2

"Squeak~"

As they watched the door gradually close, the well-behaved expressions on Heiyang and Hongli's faces instantly turned funny, and the two smiled at each other.

"Hehehehe~"*2

"Oh, freedom!"

Hongli cheered and took off her coat and hung it on Heiyang's head, revealing a little white dress underneath. She almost died of discomfort from wearing this outside all the time!

"Xiaoyang, help your sister take the clothes into the house, thank you."

"Hey, are you sick? Can't you wait until we get back to the house to take off your coat?"
