Meng Si Ning took out a retro red dress from the pile of things: "I've already bought it. I fell in love with it when she took it out. She said it was from the south. Does it look good?"
Lu Cheng stared at the red dress, smiled and nodded, saying, "It looks good, it looks good."
It was around three o'clock when they each showed their marriage certificate to their parents.
Everyone was shocked.
Si Youyuan didn't expect her daughter to be so fast. She felt distressed and happy at the same time.
"Kid, why didn't you tell us about getting the marriage certificate?"
"Mom, I'm only free this afternoon, and Lu Cheng only has three or four days of vacation left."
Lin Huaci said, "I'll call Lao Lu later. We have to hold a banquet." After that, Lin Huaci pulled Meng Si Ning into the guesthouse where they were staying.
The family closed the door.
Lin Huaci handed a small leather bag to Meng Si Ning: "Ning Ning, there are 10,000 yuan in it, and dozens of bills. Your mother and I won't need them in the future, so you can keep them.
Besides, this one is for you too.”
Lin Huaci took out a land deed from inside: "This is my house in Haicheng. It's your uncle's dowry."
The house in Haicheng will be very valuable in the future. Meng Si Ning quickly declined, saying, "Uncle, I can't take this. I'll keep it and give it to Siyun later."
Lin Siyun stiffened his neck and said, "I don't want it. Give it to my sister."
Si Youyuan lovingly touched Lin Siyun's head, his face full of reluctance. Lin Huaci smiled and said, "Siyun is still young. We will buy him one when we earn money."
Meng Si Ning's eyes were firm as he responded seriously, "Uncle Lin, I don't live there either, so these won't be of much use to me. Keep them so you and Mom can have a place to stay when you go back to visit your family."
Lin Huaci smiled with relief: "Don't worry about us. As long as you are doing well, your mother and I will be relieved. Besides, Siyun may need your care in the next few years. Time is too tight, and we don't have time to prepare your dowry. Take these notes and buy whatever you need."
"Uncle, I understand. Siyun is my younger brother. It is my duty to take care of him." Meng Sining said without hesitation.
Lin Siyun raised her head, her eyes showing understanding: "Mom and Dad, I will take good care of myself. My sister and I will be fine. You must also take good care of yourselves when you get there. If you can write a letter, please let us know that you are safe. If you can receive anything, please let us know."
Si Youyuan looked at his son with a distressed look in his eyes, "Of course you can write letters and receive things, but the inspection is quite strict. When we get there, if we can write letters, we will definitely let you know that we are safe as soon as possible."
Lin Huaci continued, "Also, I will take you to meet someone the day after tomorrow.
If Ningning could stay in Beijing, Siyun could transfer here, and Ningning could ask Uncle Wang for help. If she lives here, she can always turn to him for help with any problems she encounters in life or work."
Meng Sining and Lin Siyun responded in unison: "Okay."
On the other side, Lu Cheng returned home and couldn't wait to call his parents: "Dad, Mom, Si Ning and I have already obtained the marriage certificate."
On the other end of the phone, Tao Jie was stunned for a while, then said excitedly: "What? You got the marriage certificate!" As soon as she finished speaking, she immediately hung up the phone, asked for leave from work, and rushed to the mall on her bicycle.
Before the mall closed, Tao Jie took out the quilt coupons she'd been saving for a long time and queued up in the crowd to buy a beautiful quilt cover. Then, she rushed to the furniture factory and found an old classmate: "Lao Li, do you have any double beds in stock? My eldest son just got married and we need one urgently."
With the help of her old classmates, Tao Jie successfully pulled back a double bed.
When she got home, Tao Jie was exhausted and panting. She shouted into the house, "Boss, I bought you a bed. Come out quickly and help the two workers lift it up and bring down the single bed."
Lu Cheng had just returned from outside. Seeing his mother carrying a large pile of things, he quickly reached out to take them and asked, "Mom, what did you buy?"
Tao Jie rolled her eyes at him angrily. "Our children are really grown up now. They can surprise us at any time! We just talked about it yesterday, how come they got the marriage certificate today?"
Lu Cheng explained, "Mom, I'm leaving the day after tomorrow, and Si Ning's parents are leaving soon too. Si Ning happens to have no classes today, so I went to get the certificate."
"That's right. Hey, you make the bed first. I'll go find some of your aunts to help make the quilt." After saying that, Tao Jie hurried out again.
As soon as dinner was over, the Lu family became lively.
Lu Zhanting and Lu Cheng were calling relatives and friends in the study.
In the open space in the living room, Tao Jie called Zhang Ting's mother and her second daughter-in-law's mother to help make the quilt.
Zhang Ting's mother asked, "Why are you so anxious?"
Tao Jie explained: "Originally, we were thinking of meeting them before the Chinese New Year. Coincidentally, our future in-laws were here, and our two children were here too. We met in advance and discussed the marriage of our two children.
Xiaochi and Xiaotian just got married, and we were thinking of waiting until the Chinese New Year to get married for the eldest son.
Who knew that my two in-laws had jobs and would be gone for several years, wanting to see the two children finish their business.
Lu Cheng also has two days of vacation left, so he's really anxious."
Zhang Ting's mother said, "Oh, yes, Chengzi's situation really can't be delayed."
Sun Zhitian's mother smiled and said, "Lao Tao, you're lucky. Both of your sons have arrived in one year, and everything is done. It's a bit stressful, but your three children have finally completed their lifelong events."
Tao Jie smiled: "That's because you have easy-going relatives here."
Zhang Ting's mother watched them praising each other back and forth, then glanced at them with a smile, "Come on, stop showing off. Our son is getting married, and next up is our grandchild. As parents, we're constantly worried."
Sun Zhitian's mother looked at her and said, "Your grandson is not with you, so why are you worried? But when did Tiezi and Tingting arrive?"
"Hey, my best friend said he doesn't know when we'll have a holiday this year. So we'll just have to wait for him."
Tao Jie said, "It's not easy for these soldiers either."
"That's right."
Si Youyuan and Lin Huaci brought Lin Siyun to the Lu family.
It was Lu Cheng who opened the door: "Auntie, uncle, little brother, come in quickly."
Inside the house, Lu Zhanting was busy calling an old friend: "Old Zhang, my eldest son is having a wedding tomorrow, you have to come!" Tao Jie, Zhang Ting's mother, and Sun Zhitian's mother were sitting around on a mat, busy making quilts.
Seeing Lin Huaci come in, Lu Zhanting quickly greeted him, "Old Lin, the kids have gotten their marriage certificate. Let's have a simple wedding banquet tomorrow. Si Ning can't take time off, so we'll keep things simple. I've notified close friends and neighbors to have lunch together."
