Liu Qiuyue suddenly realized this and wished she could go back and look at the calendar immediately.

Compared to Liu Qiuyue's eagerness, Huo Cheng appeared quite calm.

"I've seen it."

"It was only sent two days before the political background check."

His words answered Liu Qiuyue's two questions.

It wasn't a last-minute decision; the date was chosen.

Furthermore, he made this suggestion only after passing the political vetting process.

"Then the wedding?" Liu Qiuyue asked again.

"Let's get the marriage certificate first."

Huo Cheng had his own considerations.

He's having surgery tomorrow.

If the surgery is successful, he will wait until he recovers before holding a wedding with Yingyue.

If it's unsuccessful, and something unexpected happens during the surgery, he might tragically die...

Yingyue, as his wife, could also receive some subsidies and obtain a spot to stay in the city, without having to go to the countryside.

With her parents looking after her in the city, she doesn't need to worry too much about being bullied.

Huo Cheng's decision can be said to be based entirely on Ying Yue's perspective, planning and considering things for her.

Liu Qiuyue didn't know at first, but after thinking about it for a while, she understood her son's good intentions.

She didn't know what to say for a moment.

Who would have thought that her eldest son, who has always been criticized for being cold-hearted, would one day scheme to such an extent for a girl?

"Okay, you guys go ahead, I'll go buy groceries."

Liu Qiuyue understood, forced back her tears, and smiled as she told them to go quickly.

"Buy Yueyue two pretty outfits, and some other things too. She can't be without what others have."

"I understand, Mom."

Huo Cheng answered.

Liu Qiuyue then turned to Yingyue and told her to buy whatever she liked and not to try to save Huo Cheng money.

Yingyue looked at Liu Qiuyue, then at Huo Cheng. She thought for a while and shook her head.

"We can't spend too much money."

"Huo Cheng still needs to eat."

Her serious expression left Liu Qiuyue feeling somewhat helpless.

This girl is too honest.

Fortunately, she met a responsible leader like Yingyue. If she had met someone else, Liu Qiuyue didn't dare to imagine how Yingyue would have been bullied.

The two left the compound and went to the street office to get their marriage certificate.

Getting a marriage certificate is quick these days. You just submit the introduction letters for both of you, and after confirming everything is correct, they write a certificate for you, stamp it with an official seal, and write "voluntarily forming a revolutionary couple to make progress together." That's it.

The marriage certificate was processed very quickly.

When Huo Cheng received it, Yingyue leaned over to take a look, but finding nothing particularly interesting, she looked away.

We need to go shopping with Huo Cheng.

Huo Cheng solemnly accepted the marriage certificate and took her to a state-run restaurant where they ate braised pork and boiled fish.

Then I took her to the department store and bought her a white dress and eight feet of red fabric.

Red cloth is very rare.

Huo Cheng will buy it back and then take Yingyue to the tailor shop to make a dress.

After buying fabric and a dress, I went to the watch shop, took out my industrial ration coupons, and bought Yingyue a small and exquisite Longines watch.

This watch cost 160 yuan.

The price is not cheap.

But it looks very good.

It looks better than the Plum Blossom brand watches.

The watch looks even more exquisite on the slender, fair wrist of the moon.

Is it pretty?

Yingyue received a new gift and happily inquired about it from Huo Cheng.

When no one was watching, Huo Cheng squeezed her hand.

"nice."

I bought a watch, and then I bought two jars of face cream.

Turning around, I saw soda on the grocery shelf, so I had Yingyue choose a bottle of peach-flavored soda, and I also weighed out two pounds of cookies, a pound of brown sugar, and a pack of White Rabbit candy for her.

Yingyue has gained so much from this trip!

She could barely hold him anymore.

Seeing this, Huo Cheng glanced at the military green backpack on the shelf, took out some money, and bought the backpack as well.

Let Yingyue put the things inside, and you can free up your hands by slinging the backpack over your shoulder.

"How convenient!"

"Huo Cheng, you're amazing!"

Yingyue always praised Huo Cheng.

No matter what he does, he always gets a compliment from her.

It offers maximum emotional value.

A smile also appeared in Huo Chengjun's handsome eyes.

Is there anything else you'd like to buy?

"Yes, that's all."

"Shall we go home?"

"OK!"

Yingyue happily pushed Huo Cheng away from the department store and went home.

She slung her newly bought backpack across her side, looking charming and adorable.

Back in the courtyard, the old man and the old woman came over. Seeing them return, the old woman immediately came up to ask if everything went smoothly.

Yingyue replied with a smile, "It went smoothly!"

"We bought lots of food! Grandma, come and have some cookies!"

Yingyue opened her schoolbag and took out the cookies inside.

The little girl was never stingy; she would share the snacks Huo Cheng bought for her with her family.

The old lady chuckled and said that her teeth weren't good, so she only ate one piece and refused to eat any more.

She held Yingyue's hand and whispered, "Acheng's foot is still injured, so he can't give you a wedding yet. I'm sorry to have to make you suffer."

"Um?"

Yingyue had no idea what a wedding was.

But she didn't feel wronged.

"Huo Cheng will be fine soon."

Her tone was firm.

The old lady was moved by her emotions and said, "Yes, Ah Cheng will definitely be fine after having you."

That evening, Liu Qiuyue prepared several dishes.

Huo Qing and Huo Yan have also returned from school.
