Later on Friday, Han Qing called Su Nian and asked her and Chu Beichen to go house hunting over the weekend. Just as the Chu family had said when they proposed marriage, he bought a small courtyard house not far from Grandpa Han's residence.
In Han Qing's words, this location is good. When Su Nian and Chu Beichen have children, it will be convenient for them to go to their grandfather's house.
Chu's father and mother were listening nearby. Mother Chu was a little uneasy. "Su Nian, it seems that the betrothal gift we gave is really too little!"
Su Nian was sitting next to Chu's mother. After hearing what she said, she snuggled up to her and replied with a smile, "My marriage to Beichen was decided when I had nothing. You didn't despise me for being poor then, and you can't despise me for being rich now!"
Mother Chu's eyes were sore from what she said, and she wanted to cry again, "Good child, good child!"
Father Chu saw this and sighed, "Beichen, tell me about your mother. Isn't it a good thing for Su Nian to have a house? Even if she doesn't need it now, she might need it someday. How can she cry over such a good thing?"
Chu Beichen tried to smooth things over for his mother, "Okay, let's discuss whether to make the dress or buy a ready-made one!"
Mother Chu perked up when she heard this. She was an expert at making clothes. She took the tissue her husband handed her and wiped her eyes. "It's better to have it custom-made. The clothes will definitely fit better and be higher-end. I helped you check out a shop not long ago!"
"Tomorrow is the weekend, you two should take some time to get measured and order the clothes!"
According to Su Nian and Chu Beichen's plan, buying ready-made clothes was also possible, but when Chu's mother went to the Han family, she realized that Su Nian was no longer the same as before, and her mother's family was so powerful.
So even though there weren't many steps left, Mother Chu was no longer willing to give in.
Su Nian and Chu Beichen looked at each other and knew that they had to make this trip over the weekend, so they agreed in unison.
You don’t know how tiring it is until you get married. Compared to when you are in love, with vows of love under the moonlight, getting married involves all kinds of trivial matters and complicated preparations.
Fortunately, the wedding is not far away. Thinking of this, Su Nian breathed a sigh of relief.
Early the next morning, Chu Beichen drove Su Nian to a clothing store. This store was very famous in the industry in Beijing, and of course, the prices were also quite high.
According to the wedding process, three sets of clothes are needed on the day. One set is a dress to be worn to toast the guests at the wedding, another set is a wedding dress to be worn at the beginning of the wedding, and the last set is a dress to be worn when entertaining relatives and friends at a dinner party.
Su Nian and Chu Beichen were going to customize their first and third sets of dresses. They had already planned to make these two sets of dresses into Chinese-style dresses, and the wedding dress would be purchased separately.
The store that Chu's mother chose for them was called Nishang. There were exquisite lanterns hanging at the door of the store. Just looking at the name was enough to make people dizzy. When they walked into the store, the colorful silk fabrics were shining with an alluring light, which made people unable to take their eyes off.
Su Nian was immediately attracted by a piece of brocade fabric and couldn't help but walk up to it to take a closer look. Chu Beichen stayed beside her with a smile on his face.
"Sir, Miss, do you want to order custom-made dresses?" A soft female voice sounded. The two people turned around and saw a woman in a Chinese cheongsam standing behind them. She seemed to be the clerk here.
