Tao Old Lady was weak and petty. She was widowed in her middle years and worked hard to marry off her three ungrateful sons and help them raise their children. Yet in her old age, no one would supp...
Chapter 149 Obtaining the Marriage Certificate
Tao Ying couldn't help but laugh out loud.
The two talked as they walked home.
When Tao Ying got home, she saw fruit on the table.
"You've been staying here since you came back?" Tao Ying turned to look at Jiang Huan.
"This is our home. Where else would I live if not here? But I didn't touch the master bedroom on the third floor; that's our wedding room," Jiang Huan quickly explained, afraid that Tao Ying would be angry.
"You said it yourself, this is our home." Tao Ying smiled and pinched Jiang Huan's cheek.
The face has too little flesh and is too tight, so it's not easy to pinch.
"I'm going to take a shower first. I've been on the train for two days and I smell terrible." Tao Ying let go of Jiang Huan's hand as he reached out.
The two of them awkwardly put their hands down. "I'm going to take a shower too. It's too hot, and I'm all sweaty."
Tao Ying: "..." Should we consider that the temperature outside is only in the teens?
However, both of them had their own ulterior motives, and neither of them dared to expose them.
Tao Ying went to the third floor, opened the wardrobe door, and found Jiang Huan's clothes already placed in the corner inside.
Tao Ying couldn't help but smile, grabbed a slip dress, and went to the bathroom to take a shower.
Jiang Huan downstairs had already finished washing up. He waited for a while but Tao Ying didn't come down. He waited a little longer, but she still didn't come down.
So I kept giving myself a mental pep talk, and then quickly made my way up to the third floor, taking three small steps at a time.
"Xiaoying, I'm coming in." Jiang Huan called out from the doorway, but received no response. He swallowed hard and boldly pushed the door open.
The sound of water still coming from the bathroom was unbearable for Jiang Huan.
Tao Ying came out drying her hair and saw Jiang Huan doing push-ups. "Didn't you just waste your time washing up?"
“Xiaoying…” Jiang Huan looked up and saw a pair of long, white legs, followed by a slender waist that was completely visible.
And then...
Tao Ying was drying her hair when a strand accidentally fell out, playfully dripping water that trickled down her hair and into her proud...
"Xiaoying, let me dry your hair for you." Jiang Huan felt like he was about to explode.
She didn't even know how she got there. By the time she had the towel in her hand, Tao Ying was already sitting on the stool.
Gently drying Tao Ying's hair, Tao Ying was applying skincare products.
When his body involuntarily pressed against Tao Ying's back, he realized that her entire back was bare.
Looking down again, I realized that my line of sight was completely unobstructed.
Unable to resist any longer, he reached down and picked the person up in his arms.
Tao Ying then wrapped her arms around Jiang Huan's neck.
"Xiaoying, let's not wait until tomorrow..." Jiang Huan wanted to say something, but the rest was swallowed up by Tao Ying's lips.
******
When Jiang Huan relentlessly begged her for a third time, Tao Ying refused without hesitation.
"Are you still going to get the marriage certificate tomorrow?" Tao Ying asked angrily.
Who knew this person had such good stamina?
"Go to sleep!" Upon hearing this, Jiang Huan immediately lay down obediently and pulled the person tightly into his arms.
What a joke! Even if it rained knives from the sky, nothing could stop me from getting the marriage certificate.
Tao Ying: "..." This man.
"Didn't you say this is our wedding room? Go sleep in your own bedroom." Tao Ying really wasn't used to being held so tightly by a man.
Most importantly, one of his thighs was draped over his body, as if he were being held captive by an octopus.
"Wife~" Jiang Huan called out pitifully.
Tao Ying “…”
The next morning, Tao Ying was woken up by Jiang Huan.
"Honey, get up. We still need to get our marriage certificate today," Jiang Huan said, looking at Tao Ying with a face full of eagerness.
"What time is it?" Tao Ying felt as if she had been disassembled and reassembled.
"It's already seven o'clock, how about I help you get dressed?" Jiang Huan secretly swallowed.
"It's only seven o'clock? Jiang Huan!" Tao Ying wailed.
"They open at eight o'clock, and we still need to eat." Jiang Huan didn't dare to say that he wanted to call Tao Ying at six o'clock.
"You can go out now," Tao Ying said, utterly dejected.
"Honey, I didn't see anything. Let me help you put it on," Jiang Huan said, unwilling to give up.
"If you don't leave, I'm not going," Tao Ying said helplessly.
"Then I'll wait for you outside." Jiang Huan immediately went out.
Tao Ying dragged her tired body, washed up, picked out a high-necked long dress, and put on light makeup.
"Wife, you are so beautiful." Jiang Huan's eyes were glued to her.
After dinner, we went straight to the Civil Affairs Bureau.
Jiang Huan's marriage application has been approved for a long time.
We got our marriage certificate very quickly at the Civil Affairs Bureau.
Then Jiang Huan took Tao Ying back to the compound.
Today is the day Jiang Huan and Tao Ying are getting their marriage certificate. Also, Madam Jiang is hosting a banquet tomorrow, so Sun Cuiping stayed at the compound.
The main problem is that Sun Cuiping is the only unemployed person in the family.
Sun Cuiping was in a performing arts troupe when she was young.
She was a pillar of the performing arts troupe back then, and later met Jiang Shuo.
She also left the stage she loved most.
When Tao Ying and Jiang Huan arrived home, Sun Cuiping was going over the menu with Old Madam Jiang.
"Have you gotten your marriage certificate yet?" Old Madam Jiang asked excitedly, looking at the two of them.
"I've accepted it. My wife, quickly call her 'Mom'!" Jiang Huan was equally excited.
"Dad, Mom, Second Sister-in-law," Tao Ying called out.
"Oh!" Old Madam Jiang was very happy and quickly took out the red envelope she had prepared and handed it to Tao Ying.
"Tao Ying, this is a gift from your mother for changing your address to her son," said Old Madam Jiang happily.
“This is mine.” Old Master Jiang also handed over his own red envelope.
“This is mine.” Sun Cuiping also took out a red envelope.
Tao Ying thought, "..." When did sisters-in-law start giving each other a "change of address fee"?
"Just take it if I give it to you," Sun Cuiping said, a little embarrassed.
Last time, Sun Cuiping felt bad for several days because her gift was too small.
In the end, it was Jiang Shuo who came up with the idea, saying that when it came time to pay the "change of address" fee, they would just give a big package.
"Cuiping, tell Xiaoying about our family." Old Madam Jiang began to instruct Jiang Huan on his work.
Sun Cuiping led Tao Ying to sit down and told her about the guests they would be inviting the next day. "It's okay if you can't remember them all. Just follow Jiang Huan around tomorrow," Sun Cuiping reassured her softly.
Even after so many years of marriage, Sun Cuiping still doesn't remember many people very clearly.
However, the Jiang family doesn't need to curry favor with anyone, so as long as things are passable, that's fine.
"Second sister-in-law, I've got it." Tao Ying nodded.
"You remembered it?!" Sun Cuiping looked at Tao Ying in disbelief.
"Well, it wasn't too different from Jiang Jiang's wedding last time," Tao Ying said with a smile.
Aside from some relatives of the Tang family, many of them were people from Jiang Jiang's wedding last time. And they were all important figures, so Tao Ying certainly remembered them.
"Jiang Jiang got married? Wasn't that several years ago?" Sun Cuiping was shocked and forgot to roll her eyes.
“Either the people they invite are all quite influential, and they know a lot about them.” Tao Ying suddenly found Sun Cuiping quite adorable.
They are not as materialistic and competitive as Jiang Jiang described.
On the contrary, I find it kind of cute.
