"Wife, is this your boudoir?" Li Baichuan also felt very hot, and for some reason, the word "boudoir" came to mind.
"You mean your boudoir? Where did you learn that from?" Su Ti was amused by Li Baichuan's words.
"It's something mentioned in those poems the teacher taught last time. I suddenly thought of this." Li Baichuan touched his nose, looking quite uncomfortable.
This was the house where his wife grew up; everything was pink and white, making him feel a little uncomfortable.
"I lived at my maternal grandfather's house most of the time when I was little. I also have a room at my parents' house. I'll take you to see it next time."
Sutila pulled the person to sit on the edge of the bed. She was tired after traveling all the way. Tomorrow she wanted to take her mother and the others for a walk.
There's also the matter of prenatal checkups, and I guess my grandparents and maternal grandparents still need to discuss the wedding arrangements.
"Okay, wife, I'll go get some water to wash your feet." Li Baichuan saw the thermos and the clean basin in the room.
Suti could tell at a glance that her mother had prepared it in advance.
The Guo family home fell completely quiet at night, and my restless heart calmed down as well.
"What do you think of the Li family?" Guo Xuqing didn't go back to her parents' house; she planned to stay there for the next few days to avoid having to travel back and forth.
"They are very satisfied with Nannan." Father Su didn't say anything about other aspects of the Li family, as those things can't be seen in just a day or two.
But they were very satisfied with Nannan, and he could see that very clearly.
"That's true." Guo Xuqing felt much more relieved after hearing him say that, thinking about how his father and the old marshal had been praising their daughter that evening.
The two of them were afraid that one of them would say too little. If they weren't stopped, they could talk about it until the end of time. If they weren't satisfied, the old marshal wouldn't have done it this way.
No matter how prestigious the Li family is, the Guo family is no less so. Besides, Baichuan still treats her daughter like a treasure as always.
She had also thought about this sudden change in status. He was no longer without support like before, and she knew what it was like for a poor person to suddenly become rich.
But looking at how Baichuan doted on her daughter, it didn't seem like she was faking it.
"Go to sleep. What you're thinking won't happen." Su's father turned over and closed his eyes. He even felt that his daughter might still be in charge of the Li family.
Guo Xuqing thought she would find some time to have a good talk with Nannan tomorrow, wondering what the current situation of the Li family was.
The next day, Li Baichuan got up early without waking his wife. It was time for him to make a good impression at his wife's house.
Although his status seems to have improved now, in his heart his wife is like the bright moon in the sky.
If he wants to embrace the moon, he must make the moon guardian trust him.
"Baichuan, why didn't you sleep a little longer?" The elderly people in the family looked at the person coming downstairs with surprise.
They're older and need less sleep, but which of these young people doesn't want to stay in bed?
Take Su Lin for example. He's so strict with himself in the army, but when he gets home, he still sleeps like a log.
They aren't the kind of unreasonable parents. This child finally gets a few days off, and the end-of-year holiday is a time to relax and sleep.
“I’m used to waking up early.” Li Baichuan’s words reminded the people sitting there that he had grown up in the countryside.
He suffered a lot since he was young, and he probably wouldn't feel comfortable in a new place, so I looked at him with even more pity.
"Old Marshal, look how good Baichuan is. Compared to my two lazybones, this child is really steady."
Guo Xuqing was like a mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law; the more she looked, the more satisfied she became, and all she could say was praise.
"Since you're up, sit down. We're talking about your marriage to Su."
When Marshal Li heard the praise for Baichuan, he felt pleased and invited him to sit down and perform well.
Li Baichuan was about to go for a run when he heard that they were discussing his marriage, so he quickly sat down next to them.
“Brother, our family isn’t the kind of people who are unreasonable. We understand what you mean. We won’t be particular about the gift money.”
Commander Guo expressed his support for their desire to hold a wedding for their daughter, saying they didn't care about the money or anything like that.
“That won’t do. They need everything they’re entitled to. I know what you mean, Brother Guo. We all want the best for the two children. They were left without any elders to look after them in the countryside before, and they were left to their own devices.”
"We wanted to hold this wedding so that we could formally introduce our two children to everyone."
"I talked about this with those old guys during the Spring Festival. Instead of going from house to house, it's better to just have a wedding and get everything done in one go!"
“Since ancient times, we have always valued a proper marriage, and none of those things can be omitted. Even if we can’t have a grand ceremony, I will apply for it. We must give the two children a ceremony.”
Marshal Li only had this one grandson, and he wanted to give him the best.
"That's fine, but no matter how much it is, it's all for Nannan. Our family will also provide a dowry, so you can't say you don't want it!"
After hearing what the old marshal had said, how could Commander Guo possibly refuse?
"Very well, here's the dowry." Marshal Li smiled. So that's what he was waiting for. Was he afraid they wouldn't be allowed to prepare anything?
The family gathers together to choose a date, location, wedding details, and guests to invite.
When it came to the topic of marriage, there were so many small details involved that Guo Xuqing and Grandma Guo also offered their suggestions.
Outsiders were unaware of the marriage between the Li and Guo families and would only assume it was a political alliance.
Both families have many connections within the military, so you can imagine what will happen if this news gets out.
The two families agreed to hold the event in Beijing, since the Guo family has few relatives, and they can just bring the important relatives with them.
Guo Xuqing was happy for her daughter; she felt a sense of relief, as if all her hardships had finally come to an end.
She needs to think about what dowry to prepare for her daughter. The things in the house have already been divided in two, and she can't take them back from her daughter and give them to her again.
We need to discuss this with her parents privately. It goes without saying that the Li family's betrothal gifts are very generous, and we can't let our daughter lose face.
When Su Lin came downstairs, the whole family had finished their discussion. They all looked very happy. Had something happened that he didn't know about?
"Where's Xiaobao?" Su Lin looked around and, noticing his sister wasn't among the seated people, squeezed through the crowd to ask.
"You still know how to get up? Your sister is pregnant, how can she be the same as you?" Guo Xuqing glared at him.
"My sister isn't pregnant, so I can't compare!" Su Lin thought of how he was always the one who was disliked at home.
His mother was just looking for an excuse to scold him. He was used to it. She only spoke to him gently the day he came back. After that, she found fault with everything he did.
"What are you talking about?" Su Lin asked, approaching Li Baichuan when they ignored him.
"I'm getting married again." Li Baichuan looked at Su Lin with a happy expression.
