Chen Xia picked up the second cup of tea: "Mom, please have some tea."
Mother Gu took the tea, took a sip, and said with a smile, "Okay, okay, I wish you a happy marriage and eternal happiness. I hope you can make us grandparents soon."
Chen Xia took the red envelope and patted her chest and promised, "Don't worry, Mom. I promise that you will become a grandmother in 10 months. One is not enough, we need to give birth to at least three."
Everyone laughed out loud.
Gu Wei glared at her: "Is my daughter a pig? Why did she give birth to so many children? Don't you know that giving birth is very painful?"
Mother Gu gently patted one of her old men and said, "Go, more children means more blessings. I agree with Chen Xia."
After serving tea to her parents, Gu Lin quickly introduced them to Chen Xia: "This is my eldest brother Gu Zhongguo, this is my eldest sister-in-law Ma Huixia, and this is my second brother Gu Zhongjun."
This was the first time Chen Xia saw his two brothers-in-law in person. Both of them were wearing casual clothes, but they couldn't hide the military aura on them.
"Hello, big brother, big sister-in-law, and second brother."
Gu Zhongguo and Gu Zhongjun flanked Chen Xia, one on each side, and said with a smile, "Brother-in-law, this is the first time we've met, and we'll be a family from now on. We know Gu Lin is a bit headstrong and willful, so please bear with her from now on, brother-in-law, haha."
They spoke politely, but their actions were very rude. The two men lifted Chen Xia up, one on each side, with both feet hanging in the air. The soldiers were indeed domineering, and even their warnings were so direct.
Chen Xia endured the pain in her arm, her smile uglier than crying:
"Big brother, second brother, you will see how I perform in the future. I will definitely make Gu Lin the happiest woman in the world. I promise, I keep my word."
The two soldiers then let go of Chen Xia's hands and patted his shoulders enthusiastically.
"Asshole, this is definitely a warning from my two brothers-in-law."
It was only when Mother Gu saw that her two sons had finished warning their son-in-law that she quickly came to smooth things over: "Alright, alright, the auspicious time has arrived. You should hurry to the wedding hall. We have 60 tables tonight, so we'll be busy."
The firecrackers outside started to be lit again and the band began to play music. Chen Xia and Gu Lin stood up again and bowed to Gu Wei and Gu's mother.
"Dad, Mom, let's go."
Dean Gu began to wipe away tears again, "Okay, okay, have a safe trip."
Gu Lin walked to the door, suddenly turned around to look at her old father with tears in his eyes, and suddenly turned around to hug Dean Gu.
"Thank you, Dad. You will always be my good dad."
Dean Gu hugged his daughter and patted her back gently. He felt like he was back to the time when his precious daughter was clinging to him when she was a child. He was overwhelmed with emotions and this time he really burst into tears.
Looking at the parents who were separated by life and death, Chen Xia's mouth was twitching all day.
"Come on, we're all from the same unit and see each other every day. Why are you being so sentimental? There are cameras here, but we're not filming 'Desire'."
Finally, Gu Zhongguo carried his little sister on his back and walked downstairs.
Gu Lin officially got married.
When the convoy arrived at the Plum Garden, firecrackers at the door exploded wildly, crackling as if they were free.
Many people had gathered at the entrance of the Plum Garden to watch the excitement. Chen Yigen personally directed several of his nephews to throw handfuls of candy to the crowd. All of them were White Rabbit milk candies, which were rarely seen in the countryside. This made the onlookers very happy.
When the bride gets off the car, according to the custom in Yuezhou, sacks are laid on the ground and the bride can only walk on the sacks, which means "passing down from generation to generation."
After entering the door, the two first came to the main hall, where the ancestors of the Chen family and the tablets of Chen Bingkun and Yang Lijuan were enshrined.
After the two newlyweds knelt down to pay their respects, they offered tea to Chen Yigen. This part should have been a glorious moment for both parents, but now they had to let Chen Yigen, the oldest patriarch, take over.
As the eldest sister, Chen Chun is not qualified yet, so Chen Chun, Chen Qiu and Chen Dong all stood aside and watched the fun happily.
Chen Yigen drank the tea with a smile, handed over a red envelope, and then said some blessings with a smile.
But this is not the end. Chen Xia suddenly and unexpectedly pulled Aunt Chen from Jiangzhou, who was also his grandmother in his previous life, to the main seat.
Aunt Chen quickly refused, "Xiao Xia, no, no."
Chen Zhenwu and Yin Yue'e were also a little shocked and hurried to dissuade them.
Although the Chen family of Jiangzhou is a relative, this relative is a bit strange. When the newlyweds offer tea, only close relatives and elders are not qualified to drink it.
But Chen Xia was very stubborn. No one knew his obsession. Only he knew that this was to make up for the biggest regret of his previous life.
In their previous life, Chen Zhenwu and Yin Yue'e had already drunk the tea offered by the bride, but their grandmother passed away before she could drink it. Since God gave him a chance to start over, he must drink this tea today.
Although everyone present had questions and confusion in their minds, Chen Xia's identity was extraordinary and no one was qualified to question it.
So they advised Aunt Chen from Jiangzhou to obey the groom. Aunt Chen felt very embarrassed, but she was indescribably happy in her heart. She truly regarded Chen Xia as her closest relative.
So I sat down.
Gu Lin is not the kind of girl who would think too much. She just does whatever Chen Xia says.
Chen Xia offered a toast first: "Grandma, please have some tea."
His voice was a little trembling. He didn't call her "Auntie", but used "Grandma" as his elder. All the words from two lifetimes were contained in this cup of tea.
Gu Lin also quickly brought a cup of tea: "Grandma, please have some tea."
The old lady was so moved that her eyes were filled with tears: "Good, good boy, I wish you a long life and a son soon."
Chen Zhenwu quickly stuffed a red envelope into his mother's hand. Aunt Chen handed the red envelope to Gu Lin and touched Chen Xia's Gu Lin's head affectionately.
Chen Xia really wanted to laugh out loud three times at this moment, and said proudly to Chen Zhenwu and Yin Yue'e: "Brother, sister-in-law, I'm married."
Chen Xia's strange and bizarre behavior became the biggest mystery of the wedding that day. Why did Chen Xia value Jiangzhou's family so much? Why did Chen Xia insist on serving tea to the old lady as if she were his closest relative? No one could guess the reason...
The wedding was still going on. After the bride and groom entered the bridal chamber, Mrs. Guolin and Mrs. Jinmu each took a bowl of glutinous rice balls and fed them to the newlyweds. As they ate, they asked:
"Alive or not?"
The bride and groom must answer at this time: "Yes", which means to have a baby soon.
Chen Xia shouted very loudly, making everyone in the room laugh. The three siblings Chen Chun, Chen Qiu and Chen Dong laughed the most happily.
The wedding in the plum garden was lively and exciting.
Gu Zhongguo and Gu Zhongwu, who came as groomsmen, looked at the luxurious mansion of their brother-in-law's family and couldn't help but sigh that their brother-in-law's family was indeed as their father said in the letter, a wealthy family.
This also made them feel a lot more at ease. Although the foundation of marriage is love, a marriage without an economic foundation is as unstable as a house built on quicksand.
Money is not everything, but without money, nothing is possible.
