Reborn with a Space: Building a Fortune Amidst Famine

Chapter 1140: Chapter 1140: Marriage Proposal

The social event organizer must have already investigated thoroughly; there won’t be anyone failing the review standards.

Da Biao also drove out this morning.

He still went to buy a gift; going empty-handed would certainly not be acceptable.

Mr. Huang and Mrs. Huang are on leave and waiting at home. Huang Xiaoqing cannot take leave, as the holiday break is coming soon. She teaches at a middle school, but she has her second class in the morning, so she can be home by nine-thirty.

Da Biao knows the boss must be in a meeting at this time; he will definitely come over after lunch.

Thinking about it, he went to the Huang Family’s home. The old couple looked at Da Biao coming over and felt the more they looked at him, the more likable he appeared.

"Uncle, Auntie."

"Quick, sit down. Xiaoqing has gone to teach a class, she will be back after nine o’clock."

"It’s okay, Uncle, is there any heavy work at home? I can do it."

"No, no, I can still manage."

"No problem, don’t be polite, I have plenty of strength. I will go find the boss at noon, but his meetings are too many in the morning."

"Alright, alright." The old couple knew that the big leaders coming over was to discuss the wedding affair.

"Da Biao, will your leader be having a meal at home?"

Da Biao shook his head. "No, they are not comfortable eating outside."

Da Biao still chopped some firewood in the woodshed. The old couple saw him working so effortlessly and were very satisfied.

Huang Xiaoqing returned home and saw Da Biao hard at work. Blushing, she smiled and poured him a cup of hot water.

"Only two classes today?"

"Yes, I already took leave from our director." She’s still young and hasn’t become a class teacher. Her schedule is relatively free.

The higher-ups support personal weddings more, knowing that a suitable match was found at the social event, there’s even more support.

The Huang couple cooked in the kitchen. Even though the leader wouldn’t be eating at home, their family still needed to eat.

Afraid that Da Biao might eat a lot, today’s meal was twice what they usually cooked.

Huang Xiaoqing also knew that Da Biao’s leader would come to propose. She realized this was to treat Da Biao as very important.

Even though she didn’t care much about these things, she still felt more appreciated.

"What time will you go?"

"After the big boss finishes lunch." Now, since the eldest sister-in-law is not doing too well, the big boss will definitely accompany her for the meal.

"I already spoke with our director today."

Da Biao immediately understood what Huang Xiaoqing meant. "Yes, today the boss and uncle, auntie will decide the time, then you can go report and get the stamp. I have no problem with that side of things."

Huang Xiaoqing nodded blushingly. That’s the best outcome.

"Xiaoqing, in the afternoon, the two of us will go house hunting."

"I want to buy a house close to my parents.

Yesterday my parents said it’s fine even if we don’t buy one."

Da Biao shook his head. "That’s not the same, if you want to be nearby, look around here, but there must be a house to prove there is a home."

Huang Xiaoqing nodded, "Alright. I will ask my parents later and also inquire on the street to see if there are any houses for sale."

"Okay. Sort it out, buy it within these few days, but it might not be possible to tidy up before the end of the year.

You’ll have a break soon, right? Otherwise, we could go live in the garrison? You can experience it there, and during the holidays, I have time off. We’ll come back then to spend New Year with your parents."

Huang Xiaoqing smiled and nodded. "Alright."

"Haha, I’ll go tidy up the garrison in these few days, it’s quite nice there. I have feelings for that place; you’ll understand when you get there."

"Are there many families living there?"

"Of course. There are plenty of families there."

Huang Xiaoqing also longed for that place. After all, everyone has a soldier dream, a hero dream.

Lunch was rice and braised meat, with some eggs fried with garlic sprouts.

After finishing lunch, Da Biao drove away.

When he arrived, Tan Shaoting and Su Yuanyuan were having lunch.

The two looked at Da Biao entering and smiled.

Da Biao didn’t feel embarrassed.

"Have you eaten?"

"Yes, already did. Boss, after you eat, come with me to the Huang Family."

Tan Shaoting nodded. "Your elder sister-in-law and I will go with you."

This made Da Biao even happier.

Su Yuanyuan had the secretary prepare gifts; the two were representing the male side, making sure to present themselves properly.

Su Yuanyuan finished her last bowl of soup, got up, and took a walk around the office.

"Boss, should we take a car?"

Tan Shaoting shook his head. "No need, once the date is set, we must return too."

Chengzi wasn’t around today, so it was Qian Zhifeng driving.

Da Biao led the way ahead, and they arrived in a quarter of an hour.

Seeing the place, Su Yuanyuan felt it was quite nice. Actually, having a place with a private courtyard already indicates it’s a capable family.

The Huang family of three heard the movement outside and hurriedly came out.

They saw Tan Shaoting helping Su Yuanyuan out of the car.

The family had only seen Su Yuanyuan’s photos in the newspaper, but always blurred. Seeing her in person, the family thought they had met an Immortal.

Qian Zhifeng called for Da Biao to help carry the gifts; the leader had prepared quite a lot.

The three were stunned for a moment and then quickly reacted, excitedly walking over.

Da Biao held the gifts, "Uncle, Auntie, this is my boss and elder sister-in-law."

Mr. Huang excitedly wiped his hand on his clothes and shook hands with them. "Welcome, welcome. You honor us with your presence."

"You’re too kind."

Huang Xiaoqing, a gentle girl, was also extremely excited.

"Please come in, please come in." Mr. Huang felt like he was walking on air. Having such leaders visit their home was something to be proud of.

Entering the yard, it was evident this was a tidy household. After all, people here were educated, and work seemed quite relaxed.

Inside the living room, Tan Shaoting helped Su Yuanyuan sit down. Mrs. Huang noticed the leader was pregnant. This was enormous news, but couldn’t be shared with anyone.

After exchanging pleasantries, Tan Shaoting got straight to the point. "The two of us represent the male side’s family in making our proposal.

Da Biao is my dear brother, but please don’t worry. If he falls short, I will certainly straighten him out."

The couple nodded, "We believe, truly believe." Looking at him, he seemed very strict and upright.

"Da Biao is not young anymore. Since we intend to start a family, let’s not delay; once the date is decided, preparations should be made, although we can’t hold an elaborate event, gathering together to celebrate is still possible," Su Yuanyuan said with a smile.

The Huang couple nodded vigorously, "Yes, that’s what we think too."

"All three of you are promising people with old comrades. Do you have a date you favor?

We know Mr. Huang is an honorable teacher and has holidays; wouldn’t it be better to marry during the break? That way, you can live together as a couple for a while."
