Chapter 531 Thinking of Her

When Su Jiaojiao returned home, it was already ten o'clock. Chen Guilan was sitting on the sofa watching TV, waiting for her: "Why are you back so late?"

"Didn't I tell you that we went to have dinner after taking wedding photos?" Su Jiaojiao went straight to the bathroom as soon as she came back. As soon as it got dark, Chen Guilan called her twice, showing how worried she was.

"That's too late. It's so cold outside." Chen Guilan knew that they were taking wedding photos today, and thought they were coming back for dinner, so she prepared dinner early and was waiting for them. However, Su Jiaojiao said they were eating outside.

She heard Su Jiaojiao taking a shower in the bathroom and reminded her, "Why are you taking a shower when you have your period? You haven't listened to me even after I've told you several times."

"It's okay, it will be washed soon." Su Jiaojiao found it difficult to reach an agreement with Chen Guilan on this issue. She couldn't do this or that, and she kept nagging her all day long.

After Su Jiaojiao came out after drying her hair, Chen Guilan asked her again, "Why didn't Xiao Lu come up with you?"

"Mom, it's already ten o'clock. He thought you were resting, so he went back." Su Jiaojiao wrapped herself tightly in a large bathrobe, completely hiding the mark on her neck. She also told Chen Guilan what Lu Jingyou had discussed with her tonight. "Jingyou said we don't have many people here, so we want to invite all the employees of the new factory to the wedding banquet."

She was very satisfied with his candlelight dinner. If it weren't for her physical condition, she really couldn't resist his enthusiasm.

No matter how enthusiastic Lu Jingyou was, he had to take care of her menstrual period. In the end, the two of them lay on the big bed covered with flower petals and chose the theme of the wedding, determined the number of groomsmen and bridesmaids, and various details.

He knew that not many of her relatives from her hometown would be able to come because of the distance, so he proposed to invite all the employees of her new factory to the event to support her, and he would definitely not accept any gifts from the employees.

Su Jiaojiao readily agreed.

The T-stage in the middle of the wedding venue separates the relatives and friends of the groom and the bride. Their family must be packed with people, and there are too few people on her side, which does not look good.

There are about sixty or seventy employees in her factory now, so six or seven tables are no problem. Adding friends like Yu Tian, Li Nuo and Marco Bo, it’s still a lot.

If he was willing to consider her, she would accept it.

Sometimes you don’t need to think too much about others. After a long time, others will take it for granted and will no longer continue to give, and you will be the only one who suffers.

"If we invite all the factory employees, we'll have to have eight or nine tables. That's too many!" Chen Guilan always considers others. "Although the Lu family has some money, they're going through liquidation and need money. The Yundu Hotel is quite high-end, and seven or eight tables will cost twenty or thirty thousand."

"Don't worry, Mom. The Lu family can still afford this." Su Jiaojiao understood what Chen Guilan meant. "Besides, this was Lu Jingyou's suggestion. I've already agreed anyway, so let's do it this way. Let Cai Ting compile the specific number of people, and you just need to count the number of people back home."

It’s too far, and not many people from my hometown can come.

The only thing that is certain is that my second uncle and Zhao Shunfa will definitely come.

Although my second aunt's illness has improved a lot, we also have to consider her physical condition. If my second aunt doesn't come, Chen Juan can't come either, not to mention that Xiao Suisui is still young.

As for my uncle's family, they said at Chen Juan's last wedding that they really couldn't come as it was almost the end of the year.

On the day Chen Juan got married, Wang Jianming took half a day off because he had to go to see the bride off, otherwise he would not have gone. After the wedding banquet, he went back to work. He said that he could make up for the full attendance bonus by working overtime on the half-day leave, because he also had to support his family.

Although Chen Jiang runs his own restaurant, the end of the year is also a busy time. It is indeed difficult to arrange time for the four or five days of travel back and forth, and she understands it.

This kind of thing requires a two-way effort. There is no need to morally blackmail others for the sake of your own face by getting married only once in your lifetime.

Sometimes, many relationships don’t reach that level.

"As long as the Lu family is willing, I have no objection." Chen Guilan felt that Mr. and Mrs. Lu would not object to hiring employees, but Lin Manli was not sure. Thinking of this, she instructed Su Jiaojiao, "You have to let Xiao Lu explain to his mother that this is his idea, otherwise he will blame you."

Maybe Lin Manli thought it was Su Jiaojiao's idea, and that was how the conflict between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law came about.

"That was his idea." Su Jiaojiao thought Chen Guilan was overthinking it and said disapprovingly, "Even if I didn't agree, he would have arranged it this way."

Women understand women best. Lin Manli really thought it was Su Jiaojiao's idea. She was the first to disagree: "This is the first time I've heard of inviting all the employees in the factory to a wedding banquet. How much will that cost?"

"Isn't it because Jiaojiao's relatives can't come?" Old Mrs. Lu thought it was a big deal, it just meant spending a little more money. In the past few days, the family's money had been spent like water, so this little bit was not a big deal.

"It's their business if they can't come. It's not that we don't allow them to come." Lin Manli was not reluctant to spend the money, but she felt that her son was too good to Su Jiaojiao, so good that it made her angry.

"It's decided now, don't say anything more." The reason why Lu Jingyou told them was to let them count the specific number of tables instead of discussing it with them.

He told Su Jiaojiao everything, and Su Jiaojiao agreed.

It's done.

He will not change because of other people's opinions, including his grandparents, parents.

"Anyway, we're not asking you to take the money, so why are you objecting?" Old Mrs. Lu looked at Lin Manli in confusion. "Our ultimate goal is to happily marry a daughter-in-law. These are all trivial matters."

"I didn't have this treatment at the beginning." Lin Manli thought about her wedding. She also came from Jinbei. Only Lin Manling came to see her off, and Mrs. Lu didn't suggest finding a few more people to support her.

"Times have changed. How can we compare thirty years ago with today?" Mrs. Lu was even more baffled. "Besides, why are you comparing yourself to your own daughter-in-law? She owns a company, do you?"

Lin Manli: “…”

Lu Jingyou said nothing, got up and went back to his room to take a shower and go to bed. He lay on the bed, thinking of the tender scene between the two of them just now, with a smile on his face. Thinking of this, he picked up his phone and sent a text message to Su Jiaojiao: "I miss you again, what should I do?"

Su Jiaojiao quickly replied: "Cold salad."

"Just wait, I will ask for double the money back in sixty-eight days." Lu Jingyou stood up and circled the date on the desk calendar.

After a while, the phone screen lit up: "Okay, I'll wait!"

Lu Jingyou looked at her text message and couldn't help laughing: "I'll tell you a secret, I want three children."

He waited for a long time, but there was no reply from her. On the other side of the phone, Su Jiaojiao had already fallen into a deep sleep, and her dreams were filled with gorgeous fireworks.
