Chapter 197 Gossip
Then Mrs. An turned her head to look at An Yanshu, and said with a smile: "Xin girl's family has agreed, and the next step is to choose a good day to finalize your marriage. In these few days, you can start preparing for the engagement ceremony, Yanshu Ah, don't be idle, let Nannan accompany you to the town when you have time, and buy some things from your daughter's house for the little girl, such as hair ropes and hairpins, didn't you often buy them for your sister before."

An Yanshu blushed and nodded.

At this time, An Chongyuan got up and walked to An Yanshu's side, put his big hand on his son's shoulder and patted on his son's shoulder, and said loudly: "From now on, you must treat the girl well."

An Yanshu responded repeatedly, his face became hot when everyone looked at him, he got up and said, "I'm going back to the room to study."

Leave everyone smiling.

An Zhinan glanced at the sky outside, smiled and said, "It's still early, grandma, I'll go to Xiaoxin's house and talk to her."

Mrs. An couldn't disagree, she waved her hand cheerfully: "Go, go, before no one in the village knows about it, bring Xiao Xin to my house for dinner at noon."

An Zhinan nodded in agreement, then hurriedly ran out of the house.

Running all the way to Wei Xin's house, he met Cheng Hua going out with a basket.

When Cheng Hua saw that it was An Zhinan, he immediately showed an amiable smile on his face, squinted his eyes and asked, "He came to look for Xiaoxin? She's in the room right now."

"Hello, auntie, are you going out?"

Cheng Hua smiled and nodded: "Go to the village and find someone to exchange some eggs for Xiao Xin's health."

An Zhinan nodded, said a few words and went to Wei Xin's room to find her.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw Wei Xin concentrating on embroidering something. He didn't even notice that he was here. An Zhinan quietly walked up behind Wei Xin and stood still. Only then did he know that the girl was embroidering a pair of mandarin ducks.

An Zhinan watched for a while and couldn't help but said, "Have you started preparing so early?"

A sudden voice made Wei Xin almost pierce his hands in fright, and hurriedly put the things aside, and said with an extremely rosy face, "No, I'm just embroidering and playing."

"Okay, I won't tease you anymore, I don't want to tease you at all. I heard from my grandma that my aunt agreed to your marriage with my elder brother. I was afraid that you would be too happy and no one would share it. I came here specially to talk to you. How about it? Doesn't it feel good to try your wish?"

Wei Xin glanced at An Zhinan coquettishly, and said weakly, "Your elder brother...what did he say?"

"What else can I say, you don't think my elder brother has no intentions of you until now, right? Then you're overthinking it. Yesterday, my grandma asked my elder brother for his opinion. My elder brother said he had no objection, which means he is too. Those who like you, you, stop thinking about it."

After hearing this, Wei Xin's cheeks became even redder, and his fingers intersected with each other in a swaying manner. After a while, he stretched out his hand and pulled An Zhinan to the side of the bed, pointing to the half-embroidered mandarin duck on the bed, and said: "You came just in time, please help me to see, this How is the embroidery? My mother said that since the two parties have agreed, it's time to prepare these. I just happened to be idle at home, so I might as well embroider some."

An Zhinan smiled and nodded, stepped forward and looked at the mandarin ducks on the material carefully, and had to say that Wei Xin's stitching skills are excellent, although the embroidered mandarin ducks are not finished products, they look vivid.

"Isn't this pretty good?" An Zhinan pointed to the turquoise material and said, "But, you should use red material to marry my elder brother. Wouldn't it be... not very good to use this color?"

Wei Xin seemed to have reacted, and stared at An Zhinan with his hands on his hips and said: "You think I'm stupid, of course you use bright red for marriage, isn't it used to practice hands, and besides, there is only material of this color at home, my mother said Wait until the snow stops in a few days before going to the town to buy it for me."

An Zhinan covered his mouth and smiled lightly, and then sat aside: "There is no rush, my elder brother will take part in the palace examination next year, and your marriage with him will have to wait until he comes back from the palace examination before getting married. There is still a year to go."

"I know, Grandma An told my mother that I'm young now, and it's fine to wait another year. You go back and tell your elder brother to let him study with peace of mind."

"You can tell my elder brother these words yourself, I won't pass on the message to you, by the way, my grandma said that the village doesn't know about your engagement with my elder brother yet, so let you go to my house for lunch."

"Ah? Going to your house for dinner? No way," Wei Xin didn't know what was wrong with his expression filled with anticipation and panic. He didn't do this when he went to An's house on weekdays, and he unconsciously touched his beating heart.

"What's wrong, it's about the same time now, just tell your aunt and we'll leave."

When Cheng Hua returned from the village to exchange eggs, he heard Wei Xin say that Mrs. An asked her to go to An's house for dinner. Cheng Hua agreed without saying a word. Before leaving, he asked Wei Xin to take two catties of bacon that the family had never been willing to eat.

"Oh, Xin girl is here, hurry up, sit in the room, why are you still wearing such thin clothes, this is not acceptable, if you catch the wind and cold, you will be the one who suffers."

Mrs. An was standing at the door of the kitchen with vegetables and leaves to wash. When she heard the noise, she saw her granddaughter returning with her future granddaughter-in-law. She immediately put down her things and went to meet her.

Wei Xin was very embarrassed by Mrs. An's enthusiasm, glanced at the direction of An Yanshu's room, and handed the bacon to Mrs. An.

"Grandma An, my mother asked me to bring this. The bacon she smokes is delicious. Bring it here for everyone to try."

Mrs. An smiled and continued: "How embarrassing, please thank your mother for me, we will be a family in the future, but you are not allowed to bring any more things, there is no shortage in the family, just come, Nannan, quickly bring the core Girl, go to the main room to warm up by the fire, it's cold outside."

Wei Xin smiled and agreed, followed An Zhinan to the main room, keeping an eye on the direction of An Yanshu's room from the corner of his eye.

When the two entered the door, old man An, An Zhiyan, An Chongyuan and the others met their gazes, and Wei Xin blushed again.

"Hello, Grandpa An, Uncle An, and Brother Zhiyan."

Old man An's whole face was wrinkled with smiles, and he hurriedly waved: "Xin girl is here, sit here quickly, it's warm here."

Wei Xin blushed and was pulled over by An Zhinan to sit down.

An Zhiyan looked at Wei Xin, then blinked at An Zhinan, with a very funny expression on his face.

"Your grandma, An, will go to someone to check the date in the afternoon. The two families are so close, so come and sit at home when you have time."

Hearing this, Wei Xin's face turned even redder, and he didn't look enthusiastic and cheerful at all.

Several people were talking in the room, and Mrs. An and Chen Jingrong were also talking about An Yanshu and Wei Xin's marriage in the kitchen.

Mrs. An has been smiling for the past two days, which shows that she is quite satisfied with their marriage.

While chopping vegetables, Chen Jingrong said, "Mom, it's time to get engaged when the weather looks good this afternoon. Do we have to ask Xiao Xin and his family to have a meal together?"

"That's for sure. The day is set for the two families to get together to discuss the dowry. The family also has to prepare the things that will be used for engagement. We are busy these few days."
