Chapter 1289 Marriage Fraud 7
When Yuanchun was eating, she could feel a pair of determined gazes behind her, staring at her from time to time, but she didn't care.
After dinner, the two went to a newly opened shopping mall for a stroll.
Yuanchun bought him a shirt and a pair of trousers, and Cai Mingyi was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling.
On Sunday, Cai Mingyi took her to hunt in the mountains outside the city. At noon, they ate roasted rabbit in the mountains, and in the evening they returned home with a bunch of pheasants and rabbits.
In the evening, the Wu family had dinner at the Cai family and finalized the couple's marriage. Since Cai Mingyi was older, the two families even set a date for the wedding.
It was decided by the elders of both sides, without asking for the opinions of the two younger generations at all.
Cai Mingyi had no objection either. He was eager to bring his wife home as soon as possible.
Yuanchun had some objections, but was suppressed by Wu's father and mother.
They are already old, so what's wrong with wanting to hug their grandson before leaving? Besides, Cai Xiaopang is a good guy who knows him well. Why don't they seize the opportunity to get hold of such a good guy instead of delaying?
If they were snatched away by another woman, they would cry their hearts out.
Yuanchun also received gifts from the three elders of the Cai family, a transparent and round jade bracelet from Grandma Cai, and a thick red envelope from Grandpa Cai.
Uncle Cai gave a thick and simple gold bracelet, which was said to be a relic of Cai Xiaopang’s mother and also a gift from the mother-in-law to her daughter-in-law.
Cai Mingyi also took the opportunity to take out the wedding rings and put them on Yuanchun, "Xiaochun, we are now an engaged couple. This is our engagement ceremony."
"When I get married, I will buy a pair of bigger and better rings."
"Just this pair is enough, no need to buy so many." Yuanchun said happily.
Grandma Cai said with a smile, "Grandma has some here. After dinner, go pick some for Xiaochun to wear on her head."
The tense situation passed, and women began to wear beautiful jewelry again. Grandma Cai's box of treasures that had been buried underground saw the light of day again.
But she is old and can't wear much.
These treasures will be handed over to my grandchildren and granddaughters-in-law sooner or later.
The two families enjoyed this meal very much.
After dinner, Cai Mingyi took Yuanchun to Grandma Cai's room and picked out three pairs of earrings, a jade pendant, a white jade bracelet, and two jade rings from Grandma Cai's jewelry box.
Grandma Cai was smiling and wanted to pick out two jade bracelets for her, but Yuanchun quickly shook her head, "Grandma, those jade bracelets are too heavy. I'm still young and they won't weigh me down when I wear them. I'll wear them when I'm older."
Only then did Grandma Cai give up.
The next day at work, Yuanchun wore a white jade bracelet and the couple watch and ring given by Cai Mingyi, and brought a bag of candy to share with the teachers in the office, "I'm engaged, this is my wedding candy."
"Congratulations, Teacher Wu got engaged so soon. I didn't hear any news about it before."
Yuanchun blushed and said, "He is my neighbor. We played together when we were young. This time he was assigned to work in his hometown, and we met again."
"Oh, fate, fate, what do you call it, childhood sweethearts, two little kids who have never known each other."
"Congratulations, Mr. Wu. However, someone is going to be sad."
Everyone knows who this someone is referring to. After all, everyone has seen how diligently Li Zhengquan has been pursuing Teacher Wu recently.
Yuanchun smiled and said, "Don't talk nonsense. I heard that Teacher Li got married in the countryside. I saw him and his wife having dinner in a state-owned restaurant yesterday."
"What?" Someone was shocked. "He's married? How is that possible? His file says he's unmarried."
Someone curled his lips and said, "What's impossible? Rural people only have a wedding banquet when they get married, but they don't get a marriage certificate."
"Without a marriage certificate, they are not considered a real couple. It makes sense to say that they are not married."
"So it's true that he has a wife, right? He already has a wife, but he's still pursuing Teacher Wu. Tsk tsk tsk tsk... I didn't expect Teacher Li to be such a person."
"Shh, keep your voice down, he's coming."
When everyone looked, they saw Li Zhengquan walking in with a gentle smile.
But the way people looked at him was not as friendly as before. They seemed to be avoiding something, and some people even had a hint of contempt on their faces.
Yuanchun took a handful of candy and placed it on his desk, "Teacher Li, please have some wedding candy."
He was stunned for a moment, and a bad feeling rose in his heart, "What kind of wedding candy is this?"
"I'm engaged."
Yuanchun smiled happily.
Li Zhengquan curled his lips bitterly and said, "Congratulations."
"Thank you, Mr. Li."
Yuanchun took a bag of candy and went to the other two teachers' offices to distribute candy.
At noon, Cai Mingyi came on his bicycle and picked up Yuanchun to go to the state-owned restaurant for dinner.
Teacher Wang Juan, who walked out with her, asked with a smile, "You are Teacher Wu's fiancé, right? He is really handsome, and you and Teacher Wu look very good together. They are a perfect match, a talented man and a beautiful woman."
Cai Mingyi likes to hear this the most.
He took out a handful of candy from his bag and handed it to Teacher Wang Juan, "My name is Cai Mingyi, Wu Yuanchun's fiancé, and soon to be husband. This is our wedding candy."
"I've already had one."
"That's double happiness."
"Oh, you are really good at talking, I won't be polite then."
Teacher Wang Juan put the candy in her pocket, winked at Wu Yuanchun and whispered, "No wonder you look down on Teacher Li. With such a beautiful pearl in front of you, who would still like Yumu?"
Not far away, Li Zhengquan stared at their receding backs with a gloomy face.
Wang Juan turned around and was shocked when she saw his expression. "Teacher Li, the cafeteria is open for dinner."
Li Zhengquan's expression changed very quickly, and he smiled gently, "Teacher Wang, you go first, I will go later."
In the afternoon, when Wang Juan and Yuanchun were the only ones in the office, Wang Juan quietly reminded her, "Teacher Wu, you have to be careful of Teacher Li. After you and your partner left at noon, the way Teacher Li stared at you was not right."
"I see. Thank you for reminding me."
"I just don't like him. He's still pursuing you after getting married. This is marriage fraud."
The news that Li Zhengquan got married in the countryside had spread throughout the school. In the afternoon, the school leaders called him in to criticize and educate him, saying that a married man pursuing a female teacher was a sign of moral corruption and should be punished.
After all, the teachers in the school have corrupt character and morals. If this gets out, it will damage the reputation of the school.
Li Zhengquan hurriedly explained that he was divorced.
His last marriage was arranged by his parents, and he divorced before he went to college. He is single now.
The school leaders finally breathed a sigh of relief.
In the afternoon, the rumors about Li Zhengquan's marriage changed. Everyone was saying that he and his ex-wife had an arranged marriage and that he had divorced long ago. The teachers no longer looked at him strangely.
Li Zhengquan no longer dared to show his courtesy to Yuanchun. When they met, they just nodded and greeted each other like ordinary colleagues.
