Both families were familiar with each other. Mo Beihan would accede to every request. Even without the Gu family's request, he would prepare everything in an orderly manner. The Gu family had no room to be picky when he announced it.
"Yaoyao is still young after all. Even after the engagement, she will only get married after she turns eighteen. I will definitely listen to the Gu family on this. I can wait."
"The ninth day of the Lunar New Year is an auspicious day. Although it's just an engagement, we can't ignore it. I'm thinking that both families should have a meal together! We should invite a few important friends and relatives over. We'll hold the banquet in the Gu family. I'll prepare everything. "
"As for those people in the brigade, it's definitely impossible to hold a banquet at this time. Otherwise, it would be too conspicuous. But we can't not prepare anything either. After all, it's a joyous occasion."
"Just prepare some candies for the children. As for food, boil some spicy soup, stew a pot of bone broth or fish soup. There's no need to prepare the main dishes."
The engagement was just a formality.
In this era, many people could not prepare a banquet for their weddings because they did not have enough resources. Even if there were enough things for the engagement, Mo Beihan would not let the Gu family hold it.
If it was just him, it would be fine. His family background was good and there would not be any problems.
But the Gu family was different. The Gu family was the landlord. If they held a banquet for their granddaughter's engagement, it would be too conspicuous.
It would be enough to prepare some food and entertain the guests.
Just like that, it was decided on the ninth day of the Lunar New Year!
After the date was decided, Mo Beihan was in a state of excitement. He ran around all day, either to prepare for the engagement banquet or to treat guests.
Although he could not hold a grand banquet, he could still show off his abilities.
In this way, he could let those people see and they would not easily touch the Gu family.
Mo Beihan had a wide network of connections. But according to tradition, the engagement was held at the bride's house and the marriage was held at the groom's house. The Gu family could not be too high-profile. Hence, the two families discussed and limited the number of guests to two tables. At most, there would not be more than three tables.
Mo Beihan was busy and so was Gu Jinlin. His younger sister was about to get engaged and he had to inform his brothers to come home.
Gu Qingyao, on the other hand, was thinking about the people who would appear at the engagement ceremony. First of all, not everyone in the family would come, but Third Uncle's family would definitely come. Third Uncle might not, but Third Aunt and her two younger brothers would probably come.
Just in time to come back to pay a New Year's visit.
As she pondered, Gu Qingyao thought of her aunt, Gu Yunshuang.
It had been almost three months since her rebirth, but she had not gone to see how her aunt was doing.
After her rebirth, she had put all her energy into Zhang Xiaohui. She wanted to chase Zhang Xiaohui out of the family and ensure that she would not bite back at the Gu family.
This was a knot in her heart in her previous life. Therefore, for such a long time, the most important thing in her heart was to chase Zhang Xiaohui out and then slowly take her revenge.
As for her aunt, to be honest, Gu Qingyao didn't know how her aunt was doing at this time.
But she knew that her aunt's marriage was not a happy one.
In her previous life, she hid at home all day and did not dare to go out. Her family's attention was also on her. She did not know about her aunt's situation at all.
But she knew that her aunt's in-laws did not treat her very well. In her previous life, her aunt had endured until the eighties when she got a divorce.
Gu Qingyao pursed her lips. Now that everything was going smoothly on her side, it was time for her to visit her aunt.
It was just as well for her to come back and attend her engagement banquet.
