A guide to get married in the 70s

Gu Cheng called home. As soon as the phone rang, someone answered, "Hello!"

The voice was loud and clear. Gu Cheng was stunned and called out, "Dad."

Gu Lisheng just said "Hmm" and was about to chat with his son when he heard Gu Cheng on the other end of the phone ask him, "Where's my mom?"

Gu Lisheng said angrily, "...your mom is not at home, tell me what's going on!"

Gu Lisheng had just returned from a business trip to Yunnan Province and brought some Yunnan specialty dried mushrooms.

Gu Meiyu asked Mrs. Liu, who was helping to cook at home, to buy a chicken, wanting to stew it with the mushrooms.

She was talking to Mrs. Liu in the kitchen, asking her to add some more astragalus to the chicken soup, when she heard Gu Lisheng's loud voice saying that she was not at home.

Mrs. Liu said cheerfully, "Commander Gu is jealous of you."

Cheng Meiyu, "You are so old, and you are still jealous, Mrs. Liu, you should put it in according to this amount later."

Mrs. Liu agreed, and Cheng Meiyu wiped her hands and came out of the kitchen. Seeing Gu Lisheng glaring at the microphone, she scolded, "Who is not at home?"

Gu Lisheng handed the phone to Cheng Meiyu angrily, muttering, "You always ask about his mother, but don't even ask his father."

Gu Meiyu, "It's because you didn't take care of the children before."

Gu Lisheng said aggrievedly, "I'm always busy."

Gu Meiyu ignored him, motioned him to stand aside, and then took the microphone.

Cheng Meiyu, "Mom was just about to call you, but you called me... There's nothing going on at home. I just felt that your dad and I hadn't met Huanhuan's parents yet. Your dad just happened to be back from a business trip, so I was thinking that your dad and I should go visit Huanhuan's parents and meet the in-laws. But I felt that it would be inappropriate for us to go there without permission, so I wanted to ask Huanhuan to pass on a message."

Gu Cheng, "You and my dad, don't rush to go. I haven't officially visited them yet."

Cheng Meiyu thought about it and felt that her son was right. Logically, Gu Cheng should bring gifts and visit the family to formally meet his future father-in-law and mother-in-law.

Cheng Meiyun was about to praise her son for his thoughtfulness when she heard Gu Cheng say, "Besides, you and my father haven't given Huanhuan a meeting gift yet."

Cheng Meiyun was immediately happy. Her son, who was always careless in life, actually remembered to ask for a meeting gift for his fiancée.

But Gu Cheng was right.

She has never met Ye Huan yet.

Gu Lisheng had met her, but at that time Gu Cheng had not talked to Ye Huan about a partner, and Gu Cheng was just unrequited love, so he didn't give a meeting gift.

She smiled and said to Gu Cheng, "Mom also wants to see Huanhuan, but you two are too far away, and Mom has never had the time to go there..."

Gu Cheng, "Huanhuan and I are planning to get married at the end of this year, so we will go back at the end of the year, and you will see her then."

Cheng Meiyu, "..." Does this mean that she should prepare the meeting gift in advance?

No, the focus should be on the first sentence, he and Ye Huan are going to get married at the end of the year!
