She lowered her eyes to look at the full bottle of soda, and thought of something. She stood up and went to the window to get two cups out of his curiosity.
Under his puzzled gaze, I poured soda into two cups, one for myself and one for him:
"Let's drink. Let's celebrate our newly obtained marriage certificate."
Looking at the soda in the cup and then at her sparkling eyes, Gu Chengan's mouth twitched, but he didn't say anything and reached out to pick up the cup:
"Thank you. Let's have a drink." He raised the glass and invited her to join him.
"good!"
There was no wine or food, so the two of them used soda instead and had their first drink after their marriage.
As soon as I took a sip of soda, I felt refreshed. It was so pungent.
She coughed twice to suppress the pungent smell, and when he was about to pour her some boiled water, she waved her hand: "It's okay, it will be fine in a while."
I picked up the cup and took two small sips in succession. Sure enough, the feeling just now was much less.
Just then someone called at the window that the dishes were ready.
Just as he was about to stand up, Gu Chengan stopped him: "You sit down and I'll go."
Looking at his back as he served the dishes, He Wanqing, who was being taken care of by an outsider for the first time, felt a little uncomfortable.
My thoughts gradually drifted away, and before the painful memories of my past life came back, I was brought back to reality by a tender male voice.
"You eat first, I'll serve you later." He placed the dish and chopsticks in front of her, then turned around and quickly walked back to the window.
Under her confused gaze, he brought the buns and rice over, and finally went back twice to bring the remaining two dishes.
"Eat it. If it's not enough, we can add more." Then he took another bottle of soda and filled her cup and his own cup.
"The food is ready. Let's raise our glasses to wish our family happiness and health in the future."
Her eyes swept from the three dishes to the cup, and finally to his angular face. She picked up the cup and clinked it with his raised eyebrows:
"Please take good care of me in the future, and I wish you a successful career soon. Finally, I wish us many children and grandchildren, and a healthy and happy family."
“From now on, the family will be left to you. When I come back, please take good care of me in the future, Ms. He.”
The cups clinked together, the two smiled at each other, and everything was said without words.
After drinking half of the soda in the glass, the two began to eat.
He Wanqing thought that three dishes would be left over, but twenty minutes later, she looked at the empty table and nodded in understanding to the shy man.
From now on, she will know how to cook and will never let him go hungry.
After leaving the state-owned hotel, the two went straight to the post office diagonally opposite.
"Hello comrade, call me."
"Okay comrades." The staff said and handed them the location of the phone.
Gu Cheng'an, holding the phone, gave He Wanqing a nervous smile and then started dialing.
I dialed three times before I finally got through.
In a military compound in Nanshi: "Mom, Wanqing and I just got our marriage certificate. Now I'm here to tell you, congratulations on having a daughter-in-law."
"Really? You're not deliberately bullying me just to steal the good stuff from me?"
"Mom, that's definitely not the case. Wanqing is right next to me. Do you want to talk to her?"
"Yes, give the phone to my daughter-in-law." Mother Gu on the other side was excited.
Originally, when she received a call from him saying that he was going to marry a daughter-in-law, she thought it was just to make her happy.
But she was afraid it was true, so she sent all the things needed to marry her daughter-in-law.
But now that I told her that we had already obtained the marriage certificate, she felt cheated.
No, she needs to find someone.
"Old Gu, Old Gu, come here for a moment. Your eldest son said that he and his eldest daughter-in-law just got their marriage certificate. Can you come over and listen to see if it's true?"
Really scared by her eldest son, Gu's mother didn't want to worry alone, so she called Gu's father, who had just returned and was about to leave, over.
Upon hearing this, Mr. Gu, who was just about to go out to play chess, looked at his son, and they both turned around and ran straight to the phone.
As for the person who obtained the certificate from Gu Chengan, both of them knew it was real, but they didn't expect it to happen so soon.
Thinking about talking to their daughter-in-law (granddaughter-in-law), they first tidied their clothes and walked to the phone without stopping.
He signaled to Gu's mother who was holding the phone, indicating that she could hand the phone over to them.
In the post office, after hearing the voices of his father and grandfather, he put aside the fact that he had just called but couldn't find the person.
"Mom, we can talk, but you didn't give me the money to change my name, so~" The meaning is very simple, we have to decide what to call it first.
Gu Cheng'an blatantly asked for money to change his statement, and He Wanqing, who was standing next to him, almost choked to death on her own saliva.
The post office staff and Gu's mother and others on the other end of the phone had the same expression.
When the three heard this, they wanted to ask if the certificate was fake and was just for the purpose of cheating them of the change of name fee.
"Gu Chengan, don't talk nonsense. Who would ask for a fee to change their words over the phone without offering tea?" Will she still want to see her parents-in-law in the future?
Thinking about the scene of their future meeting, He Wanqing really wanted to go back to one minute ago, and when he opened his mouth, she would reach out and cover his mouth to stop him from talking nonsense.
Seeing this, Gu Chengan took the microphone away and said carefully: "It's okay, I want it, my mother and the others won't be angry.
And if you don’t want it now, and then want it after you’ve shouted, they won’t give it to you.”
Gu Chengan thought he spoke in a very quiet voice, but the three people opposite him still heard it.
The three of them listened to him giving random advice, veins on their foreheads throbbing. If she hadn't been there, Gu's mother's lion roar would have attacked his eardrums by now.
"Mom, discuss with Dad how much compensation to give for changing your name." After saying that, he seemed to remember something and continued:
"My wife got some goodies for you when she went up the mountain yesterday. I'll send them to you later. Don't forget to take them when the time comes.
One for you and dad, one for grandpa to keep healthy." He didn't mention his grandpa, because he didn't say anything yet.
"Got it. I'll transfer the money for changing your statement later. Remember to take it." The three of them understood the word "mountain" immediately.
After all, in addition to wild animals, there are also medicinal herbs in the mountains, and what he was talking about alone are precious medicinal herbs, nothing else.
"That's good. It's quite old. Please keep it carefully."
"Got it. You can give the phone to your daughter-in-law now!" Really, she is not stupid enough to refuse good things.
But there are many years, how many years is it???
Would the things they sent before be enough? If not, they would have to send some more later. They couldn’t let their in-laws dislike it.
"Wanqing, I've got the money to change your statement. Please say hello to my mom!" After getting the money and saying what he needed to say, Gu Cheng'an handed the phone to He Wanqing.
"Can you please swallow those three words and not say them? Don't you feel ashamed?"
I turned around to look at the person who laughed behind me, and when I saw that he was whispering with the people around him, I suddenly felt tired.
She was so embarrassed that she was brought down from the brigade to the county town, and then from the county town to her parents-in-law. She didn't know if they would talk about her when they meet in the future.
