The second day of the Lunar New Year is Song Yun and Mo Hong's wedding.
The men of the Song family were all dressed formally; those who had suits wore them, and those who didn't wore their most formal clothes. The women, on the other hand, wore bright red and purple, mainly for the festive occasion.
Xu Guiying even wore her treasured gold earrings.
When Song Yun got married, the Mo family gave a bride price, and Song's grandparents also prepared a dowry for her.
It's all just a token gesture.
Today I officially met both sides' relatives.
The Mo family members all looked like refined scholars, and without exception, they were all tall and thin, except for Mo Hong, who was tall and strong.
Looking at the Song family, everyone had a simple and unpretentious expression, excellent energy and spirit, and they were all robust men.
Even the oldest man, Mr. Song, stood up straight.
Grandpa and Grandma Qin also came today. With Song Yingying as a link, Grandpa Qin also wanted to maintain a good relationship with the Song family, so they sat together at the main table.
Despite it being her second marriage, Song Yun still wore a wedding dress today. Everything that was missing in her previous marriage to Zhuang Pinghua was made up for this time.
The old man spoke on behalf of the Song family. He wasn't as formal as Mo Hong's parents; his concise and straightforward tone was as he offered his blessings to the newlyweds.
After toasting everyone, Mo Hong's face was both dark and red. Song Yun had also drunk some wine, and her face turned red as well. When she came to the Song family's table, her eyes couldn't help but redden.
Everyone stood up and drank.
"Come on, let's toast the newlyweds, wishing them a prosperous and thriving future."
Xu Guiying went to the restroom halfway through the meal and that's when she saw two suspicious figures in the crowd. The third and fifth brothers were eating at a table in the corner.
Suddenly I felt something was wrong.
The third brother nudged the fifth brother's arm.
Then I met my mother's expressionless face.
Song Anmin raised his hand to cover his face.
"Fifth brother, we're just having a meal, don't be nervous, Mom won't kick us out."
Song Jianmin: "..."
…
After dinner, everyone gradually dispersed.
Song Xinfu and Xu Guiying prepared to go home after seeing off their guests.
The third and fifth brothers left as soon as they finished eating.
Everyone was tipsy, chatting and laughing all the way. Song Yun's wedding was a joyous occasion, and the conversation eventually turned to Song Qiumin's wedding.
Originally, Song Anmin and Song Jianmin's marriage should have been on the agenda, but after these two little rascals were kicked out of the house, they were left to their own devices.
Song Qiumin is getting old.
Lu Hui was still worried.
"Last time I introduced Qiu Min to a girl, a primary school teacher, with a stable job, a gentle personality, and a good family, but this brat didn't like her and said he had no feelings for her."
Xu Guiying advised her, "There's no rush for your children to get married. Qiumin is only in his early twenties; there's still plenty of time for him to be married."
Lu Hui shook her head and sighed.
At the intersection, they parted ways.
After the second day of the Lunar New Year, everyone gradually returned to work after a few days of rest.
Zhang Liqin wants to have another child with Tong Hongyun. She has been drinking Chinese medicine for the past few days, but Tong Hongyun complains that the house smells of Chinese medicine and rarely comes home.
Zhang Liqin sneered inwardly.
Dislikes the smell of traditional Chinese medicine? What a lame excuse he came up with.
He must have stayed in some little vixen's bed again!
Zhang Liqin felt a chill in her heart; she was always worried about not having her own child.
It wasn't until after 11 o'clock that Tong Hongyun returned from outside.
Zhang Liqin stood guard in the living room, looking at him with a mocking expression, "So you've finally decided to come back?"
Tong Hongyun didn't take it to heart, saying, "I'm busy with important business."
Zhang Liqin pursed her lips tightly. "The important matter? The important matter is to smear lipstick marks on your collar?!"
Tong Hongyun's face stiffened slightly. "What nonsense are you talking about!"
Zhang Liqin approached Tong Hongyun and grabbed his collar.
"Tong Hongyun, don't tell me it's that same girl from last time?! What do you mean, is she special? Can't you break up with her?"
Tong Hongyun could clearly distinguish between his wife at home and his legal wife outside.
I truly loved Zhang Liqin when I married her.
But you get tired of eating the same dish all the time, so he occasionally sneaks in some fish.
Tong Hongyun gripped Zhang Liqin's shoulder. "Wife, getting angry is bad for your health. Those outside are just for fun; they won't threaten your position."
Zhang Liqin glared at him.
"Old Tong, I told you, I need to have a child."
Tong Hongyun: "I'll definitely get pregnant. Once I get proper treatment, I'll be able to conceive!"
Zhang Liqin didn't believe the nonsense the men were spouting.
Tong Hongyun used to get tired of the women around him after a while, but now he's been with this one for several months.
Zhang Liqin felt a sense of crisis and immediately found someone to follow Tong Hongyun.
The news quickly spread, and they even found out the woman's address, workplace, name, and family situation.
She is a saleswoman in a shopping mall, married with two children, and her husband works at a bank.
To outsiders, she seemed to have a perfect family and a happy life, but she was having an affair with a married man.
Zhang Liqin wanted to see what this woman actually looked like!
The next day, the tenth day of the Lunar New Year, Zhang Liqin went to the mall. She looked around the store but didn't see the oval-faced, long-haired woman who was 160cm tall.
Zhang Liqin was about to leave with her bag slung over her shoulder. As she went down from the second floor, she saw a man and a woman standing in the gold jewelry store on the first floor.
Is this the meeting Tong Hongyun was talking about today?!
Zhang Liqin gritted her teeth and stared at the woman.
Her face is average, but her figure looks alright.
The more I look at it, the more familiar it seems...
It feels like I've seen it somewhere before...
Zhang Liqin spent the whole car ride home lost in thought.
Finally, we found Liu Aimei's face.
I saw it at the mall before the Lunar New Year!
At that time, Zhang Liqin was still waiting for Tong Hongyun to come out of the toilet, and that bastard found an excuse to openly meet with a wild woman!
She's not dead yet! And Tong Hongyun and Liu Aimei dare to be so arrogant!
A burning fire ignited in Zhang Liqin's heart, and she continued to send people to inquire about Liu Aimei's family situation.
The news hasn't come that quickly yet.
Zhang Liqin held back for the time being, and Tong Hongyun returned home feeling relaxed that evening.
Zhang Liqin was drinking bird's nest soup when she glanced sideways at Tong Hongyun.
"You know to go home after you've had your fun?"
Tong Hongyun narrowed his eyes slightly, "Wife, don't say such harsh things."
Zhang Liqin: "Old Tong, you were the one who pursued me when we got married. I remember your promises clearly. I know how you treated me. Just when our son had an accident, you stood up for me and ran around for me. I will remember this kindness for the rest of my life."
Tong Hongyun frowned. "Wife, why are you bringing this up?"
Zhang Liqin wiped her eyes. "So, Lao Tong, I haven't really bothered you much about your entanglements with other women these past two years, but you still have to remember you have a family."
For a man like Tong Hongyun, tantrums and forceful tactics are useless.
He's only attracted to the submissive, delicate type.
As expected, Tong Hongyun softened his attitude again, "Wife, don't worry, no one can threaten your position."
"Then you should break up with her as soon as possible."
"Okay, okay."
Two days later, Zhang Liqin received the news.
She stared at the photo in her hand; this time it was a clear view of Liu Aimei's face.
"This woman is the eldest daughter-in-law of the Song family in Heping Lane, Madam Tong. Do you remember the Song family?"
