How to ensure contacts synced between iPad and iPhone

I was told somewhere that I. Order for an added contact to appear on both decides, I had to designate iCloud as the default under mail. But this makes iCloud my default email address when sharing which I DONT want.
If I designate my real email address as the default WILL contacts I add on my phone appear on my iPad and visa versa? This is my preference.
Thanks in advance
