"Indeed, Xiao Cong really likes Shi Wu the most. He often brings Shi Wu here, which shows his close relationship with Shuqin," Mrs. Ou said with a smile.

"Yes, indeed," Mrs. Jiang replied with a nod.

"Moreover, every time Xiao Cong returns to Beijing, he always visits your house," Mrs. Ou continued, "which further shows that he values Shuqin in his heart."

Hearing this, Mrs. Jiang sighed and said, "Yes, I feel the same way."

Mrs. Jiang smiled and nodded slightly.

"Mrs. Jiang, to be honest with you, in my heart, Shuqin is my top choice for a daughter-in-law!" At this point, Mrs. Ou decided to be direct with Mrs. Jiang and express her stand.

Hearing Mrs. Ou’s words, Mrs. Jiang’s eyes flashed, and she immediately showed a look of joy, saying, "Mrs. Ou, do you mean...?"

"Mrs. Jiang, let me put it this way, actually, Zhen Ting and I have long intended to visit your family to discuss the children’s situation," Mrs. Ou said to Mrs. Jiang, "but we just haven’t found a suitable opportunity."

"Today, while both children are present, Zhen Ting and I feel that there’s no time like the present, so we’re here to propose directly on behalf of the Ou Family," Mrs. Ou stepped forward, grasping Mrs. Jiang’s hand, saying, "I hope, Mrs. Jiang, that you can allow your Shuqin to become a daughter-in-law in the Ou Family. What do you think, Mrs. Jiang?"

With these words, Mrs. Ou practically made an official marriage proposal to the Jiang Family on behalf of Ou Cong.

Upon hearing Mrs. Ou’s words, Mrs. Jiang was naturally delighted and said, "Mrs. Ou, to be honest with you, your Xiao Cong is the fiancé I have in mind!"

"It’s just that these two children, I don’t know why, maybe they’re too used to the freedom in G City, and haven’t brought this up," Mrs. Jiang said, "which makes me uneasy at heart..."

Mrs. Ou nodded and said, "You’re right, Mrs. Jiang, these two kids probably don’t want to get married yet."

"But it’s okay, the kids don’t understand, and as parents, we always have to think more for them!" Mrs. Ou said with a smile, "If the kids want a couple more years to enjoy their freedom, that’s fine. We can just get them engaged first instead of getting married right away."

"Yes," Mrs. Jiang nodded upon hearing this and said, "I think getting engaged first is a good idea too."

"Yes, I think so too," Mrs. Jiang said.

Such proposals are typically discussed among the women, hence throughout the process, Zhen Ting barely spoke.

As juniors, Ou Jun and Xiao Jingqi stood aside without much opportunity to speak.

Honestly, both the Ou Family and the Jiang Family are quite looking forward to this matter.

So, whether it was discussed or not, everyone agreed on the matter. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

Since both families agreed, Mrs. Ou and Mrs. Jiang started discussing some details about the engagement.

"For the engagement banquet, there’s no need to make it too big, just invite some close relatives and friends," Mrs. Jiang said, "and when they marry in the future, we can dress up the two children nicely."

"I agree with your opinion, Mrs. Jiang, but the venue and attire should still be done well," Mrs. Ou added, "after all, even though it’s just an engagement banquet, we shouldn’t let Shuqin feel wronged."

"Everything that needs to be done, we should do well," Mrs. Ou said earnestly.

The Ou Family’s attention to their daughter made Mrs. Jiang naturally happy, and she said, "Alright, I’ll listen to you, in-law."
