"I want to talk to your mother alone."
After Rong Wanting finished speaking, Su Jianwei nodded and walked out of his bedroom, closing the door for the two of them when he left.
After Su Jianwei came out, footsteps suddenly came from downstairs.
She stood at the stairs, watching Shan Dandan and Zhou Jianxin looking up and waving at her from downstairs. It looked like they had been waiting for her for a long time.
"What's going on?"
As soon as Shan Dandan pulled Su Jianwei into the twins' room, she couldn't help but ask.
"I'm getting married on the 7th."
Su Jianwei's words were like a thunderbolt that struck the other three people in the room. Even Zhou Jianshen, who had the calmest character, looked at her in amazement.
"What!!"
This time it was Shan Dandan and Zhou Jianxin who spoke in unison.
"Oh my god, who are you going to marry, on the 7th? The 7th of this month!"
Shan Dandan said, "How is that possible! You don't have anyone you like and you're not in a relationship, and..."
Shan Dandan frowned tightly and looked at Su Jianwei. Was she really not joking?
Zhou Jianshen seemed to have thought of something and said to Su Jianwei, "Sister, are you going to marry Uncle Lu?"
Su Jianwei nodded, "Well, we went out tonight to talk about this matter."
Su Jianwei sat on a chair, pulled Shan Dandan, who was still in a state of disbelief, and said, "We plan to have a simple wedding, and not invite many people."
"Dandan, please be my bridesmaid."
Shan Dandan just felt dizzy, but when she heard the word "bridesmaid", she nodded her head.
Zhou Jianxin and Zhou Jianshen came close to Su Jianwei and their eyes changed when they looked at her.
"Uncle really wants to marry you!"
Zhou Jianxin went from being incredulous to beaming with joy. "Then I've risen in rank overnight!"
"Humph, Lu Aijun always asked us to call him brother before, but now he has to call us uncle!"
Zhou Jianxin said proudly, pulling Zhou Jianshen's sleeve and said, "You should call us uncle, right? Actually, uncle is also fine!"
Anyway, no matter which title it was, Zhou Jianxin was extremely happy when he thought that he had become an elder.
Zhou Jianshen looked at Zhou Jianxin speechlessly, then said to Su Jianwei, "There are still six days until the 7th. Isn't it too hasty to prepare for a wedding in six days?"
"Keep everything simple." Su Jianwei said.
Zhou Jianshen had no choice but to nod when he heard Su Jianwei say that. Unlike Zhou Jianxin, he didn't worry about anything. He felt that the adults in the family actually knew about this matter, but they just didn't know it.
Especially since my aunt came home for the first time today and soon started arguing with my grandparents.
Although Zhou Jianshen and Lin Yulan had not been together for a long time, he knew that she was a very good-tempered person.
The only thing that could make the good-tempered Lin Yulan so angry was probably Su Jianwei.
"What did Auntie say?"
After Zhou Jianshen finished speaking, Zhou Jianxin and Shan Dandan looked at Su Jianwei.
Su Jianwei thought of Lin Yulan's final reaction and said, "I agree."
…
Su Jianwei stayed downstairs with Shan Dandan and the twins for almost an hour.
An hour later, Su Jianwei and Shan Dandan returned to the second floor.
The bedroom door was still closed. When Su Jianwei was thinking about whether to go to the guest room, the bedroom door was opened by Lin Yulan.
Su Jianwei looked at Lin Yulan's slightly red and swollen eyes and knew that she must have cried again when he left.
Not only Lin Yulan, Rong Wanting's eyes were also a little red and swollen, but both of them had calmed down at this moment.
Rong Wanting waved at Su Jianwei, and when she came over, she took her hand and asked, "How do you want to plan your wedding?"
She might not be able to see her daughter's wedding in this lifetime, but it would be nice to be able to plan Su Jianwei's wedding with her daughter.
"Lu Zheng and I have agreed that since time is tight, we'll just invite relatives from both sides and hold a simple ceremony."
Lin Yulan held Su Jianwei's other hand, lowered her head and remained silent.
She had always felt that this marriage was rushed, and after hearing Su Jianwei say this, she felt that her daughter had been wronged.
Lin Yulan's thoughts were so easy to guess. Rong Wanting patted Lin Yulan's arm and said to Su Jianwei, "You are young, so let your mother and I handle this matter. You just need to be a beautiful bride on the day."
Su Jianwei nodded. She really didn't understand these things.
Now that someone has taken over these tasks, she is happy to have some free time.
Su Jianwei handed the card Lu Zheng gave to Rong Wanting, "Grandma, this is the money Lu Zheng gave us for the wedding."
Rong Wanting didn't take it, and just said, "You keep the money yourself."
"Although the wedding was decided between you and Lu Zheng, Lu Zheng is still a member of the Lu family. When he comes to deliver the betrothal gifts tomorrow, the Lu family members must accompany him."
"Since it's a wedding, both families should contribute together."
Rong Wanting was right. The next morning, Lu Zheng had not arrived yet, so two women who looked to be in their forties came to Zhou's house first.
Mr. Zhou and Zhou Ruiyuan were both busy with official business, and the rest of the Zhou family stayed at home.
Su Jianwei originally thought that these two people were Lu Zheng's two sisters, but when she listened to their conversation, she found out that one of them was Lu Zheng's stepmother and the other was Lu Zheng's half-sister.
Mr. Lu married three wives.
His first wife gave birth to two daughters and a son, who are Lu Zheng's older brother and sister.
The second wife was from the Du family in the imperial capital and was also Lu Zheng's mother.
The third wife is his current wife. She was originally Mr. Lu’s caregiver. Later, they got married and gave birth to a daughter for Mr. Lu.
It is said that this daughter is only one year younger than Lu Zheng.
Although two people came from the Lu family, it was the eldest daughter of the Lu family who had been discussing with Chen Ke. Mr. Lu’s current wife sat next to her with a decent smile on her face.
She originally wanted to take the initiative to talk to Lin Yulan, but was interrupted by Rong Wanting after just a few words. Later, when she saw that Rong Wanting cared about Lin Yulan, she did not continue to find topics.
In the entire imperial capital circle, there are only a handful of people who can chat with Rong Wanting. Even though Liu Jing is now Mr. Lu’s wife, she really doesn’t dare to say a few more words in front of Rong Wanting.
She heard that Rong Wanting seemed to have saved Lu Hai's life in the past.
The few of them chatted indifferently for more than an hour, and soon Zhou Shoujun and Mr. Lu Hai took Zhou Ruiyuan and Lu Zheng back to the Zhou family respectively.
Lu Hai first greeted Rong Wanting, then spoke a few words to Lin Yulan and Su Jianwei, and then went upstairs with Zhou Shoujun.
At noon, the Lu family had lunch together at Zhou's house.
After lunch, Lu Zheng handed an exquisitely carved mahogany box to Lin Yulan in front of Lu Zhou and his wife.
"Auntie, this is the list of betrothal gifts that my mother, my grandfather, and I have prepared over the years. Please take a look."
