Chapter 598 Let’s go get the certificate
Newlyweds are always sweet and happy. After Gu Sanjing and Xu Yusen returned to Kyoto after their honeymoon, they had two meals a day at Gu's house, and everyone ate lunch at work or school.
Gu Siqing felt a pang of annoyance watching the two of them being so affectionate every day. Wang Yueju and Gu Jianguo were very happy, as if they had a live-in son-in-law.
Gu Jianguo also sighed to Wang Yueju, "I originally wanted Zhengping to be my son-in-law, but I didn't expect the most impossible thing would be to stay by my side every day."
Isn't it the most impossible? The Xu family has only one male heir, Xu Yusen, and his family is far away in Hong Kong. At first, they would never have thought that he would stay with them for a long time after marrying Sanjing.
"All my sons-in-law are good," Wang Yueju said sincerely. Forget about others, just look at Ye Chi and Zhang Zijun. After years of marriage, they still love Yimin and Erhui as deeply as ever.
"That's because I know how to choose a son-in-law." Gu Jianguo immediately praised himself. Wang Yueju ignored him and let him be proud of himself.
"Xiao Si and Zheng Ping's wedding is coming soon," Wang Yueju said. "Xiu Wan asked me to go see the courtyard where Xiao Si and Zheng Ping will live tomorrow. She said it's all decorated."
Gu Jianguo took off his shoes and got on the bed. "What's so good about it? It was made according to Xiao Si and Zheng Ping's preferences."
"It's not much of a stretch to just look at it." Wang Yueju also got on the bed and sighed, "Sanjing hasn't graduated yet, so they definitely won't have a baby right now. But Xiaosi is only twenty, so isn't it a bit early to have a baby after getting married?"
Gu Jianguo also frowned when he heard this. Wang Yueju continued, "Although people of our generation all had children in their teens, it was still early back then. Nowadays, getting married at 20 is considered early, let alone having children."
"It depends on what Xiaosi and Zhengping think," said Gu Jianguo.
Wang Yueju sighed, "I worry too much." But as a parent, you think about everything for your children.
"Go to sleep and don't think too much." Gu Jianguo turned off the lights and Wang Yueju also lay down.
The next day, around seven o'clock, Gu Sanjing and Xu Yusen came over. Xu Yusen was accompanying Gu Jianguo for morning exercise. Wang Yueju heard something strange in his voice and asked, "Does Yusen have a cold?"
"Yes, he was working overtime in the study last night, and he was using the air conditioner in this season." Gu Sanjing said.
"Have you taken the medicine?" Wang Yueju asked.
Gu Sanjing: "I ate it."
"Let's make him some ginger tea to get rid of the cold." Wang Yueju said and went to the kitchen to make ginger tea. When Xu Yusen and Gu Jianguo came back from morning exercise, there was a big bowl of ginger tea waiting for him.
Wang Yueju was still nagging, "Why go running when you have a cold? Work is more important than your health, and there should be a limit to overtime. Soak your feet in ginger tonight, and make sure you sweat, okay?"
Xu Yusen nodded as he drank his ginger tea. The spicy tea warmed his body and heart. He had lost his mother when he was young and had lived with his grandfather. However, servants took care of most of his daily chores, so he rarely felt the nagging of his elders.
After finishing a large bowl of ginger tea, Xu Yusen tightly grasped Gu Sanjing's hand. Gu Sanjing looked up at him, confused, and asked, "What's wrong?"
Xu Yusen chuckled, "I just feel very happy now."
Gu Sanjing also laughed.
After the family of four finished their meal, they each went about their own business. Because Gu Siqing hadn't gotten up yet, Wang Yueju had something to say to her, so she waited until she got up.
When Gu Siqing finished washing up and sat down to eat, Wang Yueju said, "After you married Zhengping and moved into the Su family, did you also sleep until noon every day?"
Gu Siqing pouted, "What should we do? Mom, why don't you go and talk to the Su family and ask them to let Zhengping be our son-in-law. As long as the elders agree, he will definitely have no objection."
Wang Yueju saw that she was talking nonsense again, raised her hand and hit her, saying, "Stop talking nonsense."
Gu Siqing shrugged, and Wang Yueju continued, "I'm going to see your Aunt Kong today, and I have to tell her that your sleep schedule is different from others, so that you won't be scolded for sleeping in until noon."
Gu Siqing hummed, and Wang Yueju thought for a moment before asking, "After you get married, when do you plan to have children?"
Gu Siqing had never thought about this question, but when asked this question, she felt that it was indeed a problem. After thinking for a while, she said, "I can do it anytime. It depends on him."
Gu Siqing thought it was a good idea to have a child early. She'd have to have one sooner or later anyway, and since she wasn't actually twenty, there wasn't a problem of her mental age being too young. She even thought it was better to have a child sooner, so she could raise the child faster and have more space for herself later.
"You two should discuss this matter." Wang Yueju didn't say much. She thought about it again last night. Their conditions are good now, so it's okay for Xiaosi to have a child earlier. Anyway, she doesn't need to take care of the child day and night.
After dinner, Gu Siqing went to the Su family with Wang Yueju. Kong Xiuwan and An Ruijin were there, and they took them to Han Zhengping's yard.
Wang Yueju said to them as they walked, "We could have come earlier, but Xiao Si got up a little late. She always studies at night, so her day and night are reversed."
Kong Xiuwan and An Ruijin immediately understood what Wang Yueju meant. Kong Xiuwan said immediately, "I've heard that writers often get their inspiration at night. Don't worry, Xiao Si will be just like before when he comes to our house. There will always be someone in the kitchen, so we can eat whenever we get up."
Wang Yueju was relieved and said, "This child has a lot of bad habits because we spoiled him."
"I think Xiao Si is good in every way," An Ruijin said with a smile. "Young people have their own way of living. We don't care about that."
As they walked into the yard, An Ruijin took Gu Siqing into the house to look at the newly made bedding. Kong Xiuwan took Wang Yueju's hand from behind and said:
"Don't worry, I treat Xiao Si like my own daughter and won't let her suffer any grievances. Besides, after so many years, we all know Xiao Si's personality and habits. As I said, they will still be the same after their marriage."
Wang Yueju felt a little embarrassed by her earnest promise and said with a smile, "I was just worrying about nothing."
"Isn't that what all mothers do?" Kong Xiuwan understood very well.
The decoration of this courtyard was designed by Gu Siqing and Han Zhengping. Wang Yueju came to take a look just for the sake of formality. After staying for a while, she left with Gu Siqing.
In the blink of an eye, only a week was left until the wedding. Han Zhengping arrived at Gu's house early in the morning to take Gu Siqing to get the marriage certificate. An Ruijin asked someone to show him the date, saying that today was a good day to get the marriage certificate.
Gu Siqing didn't get up late today. When Han Zhengping came, she was putting on makeup in front of the mirror. Han Zhengping leaned against her dressing table and watched. After she finished putting on makeup, he took out a ring and put it on her hand.
Gu Siqing raised her hand and looked at it, "It fits the temperament of our family very well."
"What kind of temperament?" Han Zhengping asked.
"What a nouveau riche!" Gu Siqing raised her hand in front of him. "Look, it's so big and shiny."
Han Zhengping was amused by her and raised his hand to flick her forehead. "Do you like it?"
Gu Siqing nodded, "I like it."
"Let's go get the certificate!" Han Zhengping pulled her out.
