Chapter 14: Jiang Xian's mouth, a lie
Jiang Xian nodded. After all, they had wasted a lot of time.
If we delay any longer and wait a little longer, I'm afraid the marriage registration office will be closed.
So she quickly put the photo back into the envelope.
Then, he put it in the pocket of his shirt and buttoned it up to prevent the photo from being lost.
Jiang Xian thought, this cost them four dollars.
Originally, she thought it was a bit expensive.
Now that I've seen the photos, I think it was well worth the money.
No wonder the owner of the photo studio suggested displaying their photos in front of the store.
Fortunately they didn’t agree!
After getting on the bike, Lu Bin was still riding the bike, and Jiang Xian sat on the seat behind him.
Because it was inconvenient to carry things, they hung all the supplies they bought on the handlebars.
Jiang Xian still held Lu Bin's waist tightly with both hands. Lu Bin had already changed from being uncomfortable at the beginning to getting used to it now.
He had already calmly accepted Jiang Xian's intimate behaviors towards him.
After arriving at the marriage registration office, the two produced the marriage certificate issued by the village. The staff was very efficient and issued them a marriage certificate without further ado.
The whole process took only ten minutes, and the hot marriage certificate came out freshly.
Jiang Xian held the marriage certificate in his hand and looked at it over and over again, but it always felt a little unreal.
She actually got married like this!
This was something she had never dared to think about in her two lifetimes.
Clearly, a few hours ago, she was still working overtime at home to draw a draft, and now, she just married herself? ! !
If her parents knew about this, they would beat her to death.
Jiang Xian stuck out her tongue and could even imagine her old mother, furious.
Without having time to think too much, after getting the marriage certificate, Lu Bin took Jiang Xian and hurried back to the village.
We are somewhat rushed.
After all, their bicycles were borrowed from other people's homes. In that era, a precious item like a bicycle could not be bought without three to five hundred yuan.
It's already very good that people can lend it to them, so it's better to return it to them as soon as possible.
If it gets bumped or scratched, it will be hard to explain.
When Lu Bin was riding a bicycle, he was even very careful, for fear of puncturing other people's tires. After all, repairing a bicycle these days costs a lot of money.
After arriving at the village, Lu Bin went to return the bicycle first.
Then, he took Jiang Xian to his home, wanting Jiang Xian to meet his parents.
After all, they have already obtained the marriage certificate.
Lu Bin's home is located at the easternmost end of the village, which is quite far from the educated youth point.
Because Lu Bin had prepared Jiang Xian psychologically in advance and told him that his family was very poor.
So, Jiang Xian was already prepared to face the dilapidated adobe house, the leaky roof, and the run-down yard.
After all, although she had read the original text before she traveled through the book, the author did not spend too much time describing Lu Bin in the book.
She also didn't know what happened to Lu Bin.
When he arrived in front of Lu Bin's yard, Jiang Xian was stunned for a moment. What he saw were seven connected adobe houses.
At first glance, it looks like a big family living together.
Jiang Xian had seen this kind of situation before when he was watching TV dramas.
So she hesitated and asked:
"Are there many people in your family?"
Although these were words of doubt, Jiang Xian was basically certain about it.
After all, this yard is full of life.
If Lu Bin's house was occupied by only the three of them, the scene would not be like this at all.
On the clothesline outside the yard, there were clothes of all ages hanging out to dry, even very small pieces, such as children's clothes. It was obvious that many people lived together.
Besides, Lu Bin just got married, how could there be children at home?
Lu Bin was silent for a moment. It was indeed his fault. He did not explain the family situation to Jiang Xian in advance.
With a slightly apologetic tone, he explained to Jiang Xian in detail:
"I'm sorry, I was in such a hurry just now that I forgot to tell you that my parents have three sons and one daughter."
"We are a big family and we live together."
"My eldest brother and second brother have both married and had children. My youngest sister also got married last year. I am the youngest son in the family."
"I am currently taking care of my parents."
The man's tone was brief, and he explained the situation at home in just three or five sentences, but there was indeed a lot of information contained in it.
Since there are three sons in the family, why are all his parents taken care of by Lu Bin?
Obviously, there is discord within the family.
Maybe it's a matter of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, or maybe it's a conflict between sisters-in-law.
Jiang Xian had a vague idea in his mind that Lu Bin's two sisters-in-law were probably not easy to deal with.
Otherwise, Lu Bin’s parents are not just his. If the old couple gets sick, they can’t just rely on him.
Are the other two sons useless and raised in vain?
Jiang Xian's expression suddenly became subtle.
Lu Bin was still quite nervous. He really forgot to tell Jiang Xian about his family situation.
If Jiang Xian minded, he would give her a chance to regret and respect her choice.
"If you want to regret it, it's not too late now."
"We just got our marriage certificate. It won't be a big loss for you if we go back to town and get a divorce now."
"I will explain the situation to everyone in the village and make sure it does not affect your next marriage."
There was a hint of humility and caution in the man's tone.
To be honest, this is the best way Lu Bin can think of to solve the problem.
Jiang Xian didn't expect that Lu Bin could say such a thing. She became angry for a moment.
Looking at the situation in the yard, after all, they were already at the door of Lu's house, so she couldn't get loud and argue with Lu Bin, which would attract the neighbors and Lu Bin's family to come and watch the fun.
So she lowered her voice and cursed softly:
"What the hell are you talking about?"
"Am I, Jiang Xian, the kind of person who is overambitious and despises the poor and loves the rich?"
"When you first said your family was poor, I didn't care. The reason I wanted to marry you was because I was attracted to you as a person and your character. It had nothing to do with your family."
"Living is a matter between the two of us. As long as we live a good life, nothing can stop us."
"What's wrong with a big family living together? It's more lively with more people. My parents died when I was young, and my uncle and aunt were not kind to me. I hope to marry into your family and experience the feeling of home."
Jiang Xian's words were half true and half false, and even she was moved.
She would never tell the truth. In fact, she was just attracted by Lu Bin's beauty!
