Chapter 113: Proposal Scheme

Liang Yan sat on the sofa, lifted her head proudly, "The first proposal ceremony involved a fringe member of the Liang Family; he's very poor! All his diamond rings were borrowed from me."

【Huh? It really was borrowed from you, not swindled from you?】

An adult borrowing diamond rings from a child is weird no matter how you look at it! Maybe they thought Liang Yan was a child and thought she was easy to trick?

Ye Shu also thought so; he somewhat regretted listening to Liang Yan's experience, "Our situation is different, so there's no need to say more, right? Let's still discuss how I should propose."

"But he really held a proposal ceremony, and the girl who was proposed to was overjoyed—I asked her myself!"

Although Liang Yan can't remember faces, she recalls the question she asked. That girl indeed said she was very happy.

Ye Shu saw Liang Yan's serious expression, sighed and nodded, "Then tell me!"

Liang Yan slowly recalled, "That uncle proposed in the Liang Family's garden. The uncles and aunties set up a lot of signs at the entrance, and even turned the extra signs into heart shapes.

You can't decorate inside the garden; Grandfather doesn't like anyone touching the garden's flowers!

However, the gardener uncles and aunties keep the garden in great shape, with flowers blooming everywhere. Those who set up the signs all said it would look prettier without the signs!

【Nice guy, what a money‑saving method! The vibe is also upgraded!】

How could the garden of the real power holder of the Liang Family be any worse? It's a free wedding venue!

"And then?"

Just hearing about the venue, Ye Shu lost all hope. Such a stingy guy—what useful experience could he offer?

"Then an aunt brought the proposed aunt to the scene, the uncle knelt and gave that aunt the ring I borrowed from Grandfather!"

【The feelings aren't your ring, no wonder you were so generous in lending it! Did that woman just agree like that?】

"She agreed so easily?"

Ye Shu found it unbelievable; it's way too simple, right? Did that girl have her mind filled only with the word "love"? Couldn't she see such an obvious problem?

"That part wasn't simple! After their proposal was completed, I asked that aunt if she was happy; she said she was. I was also happy and asked the aunt to return the ring to me. But the uncle told the aunt I was playing a game."

I didn't understand the uncle's words, so I went to Grandfather for clarification. Grandfather didn't know either, so he asked himself. Later, Grandfather came back and told me that the aunt had become his wife! I have to call that aunt Great‑Grandmother!

Ye Shu: "…He seems to know who it is!"

Liang Yan, at this point, spoke earnestly to Ye Shu, "Uncle, your ring must be your own; otherwise, like that uncle, your wife will be taken away by the ring's owner! That uncle cried terribly!"

Ye Shu was speechless, "Then you still said that aunt was happy."

Liang Yan nodded, "She was indeed happy; I asked once after the uncle's successful proposal, and again when she moved into Grandfather's villa—both times she was very happy!"

【…Are you naturally dark?】

Su Yu suddenly became curious about the second unlucky person.

"Did the second proposal ceremony you attended succeed?"

"It succeeded! And there were two couples!"

"Wow, that many?"

【One proposal ceremony with two couples? There must be something wrong!】

Liang Yan saw the admiration and curiosity in Su Yu's eyes, "The second proposal ceremony I attended was arranged by Grandfather."

Liang Yan frowned, "Grandfather said, don't let that pretty girl marry that boy, and he'll give me a nice gemstone."

【Whoa, that's trying to cause trouble!】

"Did you agree?"

"Yeah, I got the gemstone; it's a very beautiful stone, as pretty as that gorgeous older sister! But Grandfather is too ugly!"

He divorced the wife he had snatched from that uncle last time, and now wants another such pretty sister; I'm not happy about that!

At that moment, Liang Yan vaguely felt that Grandfather didn't truly like her. The feeling he gave her was very different from her mother's, yet they seemed the same on the surface. Liang Yan was confused but didn't dare tell her busy mother.

Grandfather gave her a gemstone, but only one! He had given the previous not‑very‑good‑looking young Great‑Grandmother about a dozen. When Liang Yan received just one, she felt a bit hurt, so she wanted Grandfather to experience her feelings!

Great-grandfather gave her a gemstone, but only one! He gave the previous young great-grandmother who wasn't very good-looking ten or so gems! When Liang Yan received one gemstone, she felt a bit upset, so she also wants great-grandfather to experience her feelings.

"That won't do; I took the payment!"

Liang Yan, hearing Su Yu's question, recalled last night, "At that time I was still very contract‑mindful!"

Ye Shu crossed his legs, pressed the voice button, and streamed Liang Yan's words to Zhu Xueheng in real time. His daughter is equally troublesome! How can Zhu Xueheng feel at ease putting his troublesome daughter next to the equally troublesome Su Yu?

Ye Shu sat with legs crossed, pressed the voice button, and in real time relayed Liang Yan's words to Zhu Xueheng. His daughter is just as carefree! How could Zhu Xueheng be at ease putting his carefree daughter beside the equally carefree Su Yu?

"The thing I promised to do was to find a way to prevent that pretty girl from marrying that boy.

So, while that other girl with the slightly odd voice was talking to that boy, I took the pretty sister aside, told her that Grandfather liked her a lot. That boy had already discussed with Grandfather, and by taking that boy's ring, she would become my new Great‑Grandmother. My previous Great‑Grandmother had taken an uncle's ring and married my Grandfather."

"So, I took advantage of the moment when another girl with a slightly strange voice was talking to that boy, I took the pretty sister's hand and walked to another side to tell her, my great-grandfather really likes her. That boy and great-grandfather had already agreed: he would take that boy's ring and become my new great-grandmother. My previous great-grandmother had accepted an uncle's ring and married my great-grandfather."

【Could it be that Liang Yan made it up? Kids don't lie, but they do babble!】

"The pretty sister didn't believe me at first; I showed her my gemstone, and she still told me, 'Kids shouldn't play tricks, or the adults will spank them!'"

"The pretty sister didn't believe me at first; I showed her my gemstone, but she still told me, kids shouldn't play pranks, or adults will spank them!"

"And then?"

"I was lucky and ran into the uncle from the previous proposal, so I took the pretty sister to ask him!

That uncle was both ugly and fierce! However, he told the pretty sister that what I said was correct!

【That should be doubt, right? How could a proposal ceremony succeed? And with two couples!】

Liang Yan took a sip of water, then continued, "The pretty sister still didn't believe me at first, and she wanted to confront the boy face‑to‑face. At that moment I had already thought that if that boy tried to hit me, I'd run away! At worst, I'd give up the gemstone!

But after the pretty sister found the boy, she turned to a big lantern that illuminated the boy and the oddly‑voiced girl, grabbed a microphone and announced, celebrating the two falling in love and about to enter the marriage hall!"

Liang Yan doesn't recall their names, but she remembers that passage clearly and even asked her mother at home what it meant.

"I only remember that the pretty sister laughed brightly, saying the boy had already prepared a proposal ring and was about to propose to the oddly‑voiced girl. I even doubted whether Grandfather had the wrong person! But seeing Grandfather smile so broadly his eyes were hidden, and he gave me a thumbs‑up, I felt I hadn't made a mistake."

"I only remember, the pretty sister laughed happily, saying that boy had already prepared a marriage proposal ring and was about to propose to the girl with the slightly strange voice. At the time I somewhat doubted whether great-grandfather had gotten the wrong person! But seeing great-grandfather laugh so hard his eyes disappeared, and he gave me a thumbs up, I felt I hadn't made a mistake."

"Your Grandfather wouldn't really marry that pretty sister, would he?"

Your great-grandfather wouldn't really have married that pretty sister and brought her home, would he?

【What a pity for a good girl to marry an old man?】
