When all the guests had arrived, the engagement ceremony began.
The ceremony was simple; the host announced the commencement of the engagement ceremony. Jiang Yining held Fu Chengxun's arm and, accompanied by music, walked slowly into the hall under everyone's gaze and stood on the stage.
Next, representatives from both families made speeches.
The Fu family representative was Fu Chengxun's father, Jiang Yining's father-in-law, who was well-educated and eloquent in his speech, offering blessings to the two children.
The Jiang family's representative was also the father. Watching her father step onto the stage, Jiang Yining instinctively bit her lower lip, feeling quite anxious.
As the saying goes, after the pearls, come the wooden boxes.
Father Jiang spoke with a more rugged demeanor, not as refined and gentle as Father Fu. However, his humorous words and self-deprecation elicited smiles of understanding from the audience.
