Chapter 518: Each Has His Own Thoughts
After Chen Guilan came back from the suburbs of Beijing, she was still thinking about the house in the lakeside villa in the suburbs of Beijing. The house was nice, but the location was too remote and there was no one on the road.
She would really be worried if Su Jiaojiao moved there.
Seeing that Su Jiaojiao didn't mention the house, she couldn't help asking, "Jiaojiao, are you going to move to Lakeside Villa after you get married?" "Not for now." Su Jiaojiao was sitting in the house drawing, and Marco was immersed in his creation of the Twenty-Four Solar Terms. The pressure of changing to new styles fell on her again.
She wants to start producing a line of Chanel-style items and suits, as well as autumn trench coats.
"I thought you were going to move in!" Chen Guilan breathed a sigh of relief. "Your house is quite nice, but there's no one in the neighborhood. It's okay during the day, but it's really scary at night."
There was something she was embarrassed to ask: why did Lu Jingyou choose to build his wedding house in such a remote place? Wouldn't it be better to buy a three-bedroom apartment like Jinyuan in the city?
"It's not too late to move there once the community becomes popular." Su Jiaojiao didn't want to move there either. The location was remote and the transportation was not convenient. So far, apart from Lu Jingyou, Qi Heng, He Siyu and others, there were only five or six households who were renovating their homes.
Anyway, there won’t be too many people moving in next year.
Qi Heng and He Siyu both said that they were just going to renovate the house first and gradually buy furniture and other things. They would only live there occasionally and would not live there permanently.
For them, it is more convenient to live in the project department, at least they can eat in the cafeteria.
If they didn't go, no one would go to renovate the building in the front row except theirs, or it might not have been sold yet, so she didn't want to go.
"Then you'll live with Xiao Lu's grandparents?" Chen Guilan was still a little worried. "It's okay to live there for a few days during the wedding, but it won't work for a long time."
Now it seems that Mr. Lu and Mrs. Lu are doing well, but this is before marriage. Who knows what will happen after marriage?
Moreover, there was one thing she didn't understand, that was Lu Jingyou's parents didn't ask Su Jiaojiao to visit their home.
"Mom, you don't have to worry about these things. We can come back and live here." Su Jiaojiao never bothered about this issue. Even if she moved to the outskirts of Beijing in the future, she didn't necessarily have to live in Lakeside Villa. She had her own house.
When the time comes, she will renovate the house in Tianyi Huayuan and move in. Tianyi Huayuan is not far from the Beijing Suburban Industrial Park, and is closer than Lakeside Villa anyway.
After returning from the suburbs of Beijing, her sleep improved a lot. She used to wake up after only two or three hours of sleep and couldn't fall asleep again after waking up. She had to make up for it by sleeping during the day.
Su Jiaojiao thought she had forgotten the kidnapping incident, but for some reason, her body had not forgotten it. No matter how late she slept, she would almost always wake up at three or four in the morning and would not be able to fall asleep again until dawn.
Three or four o'clock was exactly the time when she and Lu Qingqing broke through the window and escaped that night.
She also didn't understand why Lu Qingqing had returned to normal, but she was still struggling in the shadow of that incident. Was it because she lacked a sense of security deep down in her heart?
But she doesn't feel that she lacks a sense of security. In her eyes, having money means having a sense of security. She is rich now, enough money to support her and her mother to have food and clothing for the rest of their lives.
The next day, Mrs. Lu and Song Xiangyun came again, along with Lu Jia and Lin Manli. Song Xiangyun said that Mr. Lu had someone make a engagement letter, and both families kept a copy, which officially confirmed the date of the wedding.
There was no such ceremony in Jiao County, and Chen Guilan didn't know about it, so she put it away solemnly for safekeeping. Song Xiangyun was very happy. She said that she was sure to make a profit as a matchmaker, and asked Chen Guilan to set the engagement date as soon as possible so that they could make preparations.
Chen Guilan said that she would wait for them to discuss it before making a decision. She would not only discuss it with Su Jiaojiao, but also with Chen Guisheng and others.
Old Mrs. Lu asked about Su Jiaojiao's sleep condition and found out that she still hadn't recovered. She said that she would go back and find a Chinese doctor to see Su Jiaojiao and that she would definitely get better after taking some Chinese medicine.
Chen Guilan agreed. She was unfamiliar with the place and had not thought of seeing a Chinese doctor.
"Once we've contacted a Chinese medicine doctor, we'll go with Xiao Su." Lin Manli forced a smile. "I don't have anything to do right now anyway."
"Yes, yes, let's go with her." Lu Jiahe also laughed.
Yesterday, the old man called them both back to the old house and scolded them, saying that they were not concerned about Lu Jingyou's marriage. He also said that although Lu Jingyou didn't say it, he must be calculating in his heart, so let them do whatever they want!
Look, the two of them followed closely.
"I'll just accompany her, no need to trouble you." Chen Guilan knew that Su Jiaojiao definitely didn't want the couple to accompany her, that would be too awkward.
"Let's talk about it after I make the contact." Old Mrs. Lu understood what Chen Guilan meant.
Chen Guilan wanted to keep them for dinner, but they refused. They sat for a while and then left, saying they would come back when they had time.
After they left, Chen Guilan took out the engagement letter and read it again and again. Suddenly, her nose felt sore and she couldn't help but shed tears. Other families had planned their wedding together, but she was alone here...
Although Chen Guisheng was very concerned about Su Jiaojiao's affairs, they were far away after all, and many things could not be explained clearly over the phone.
She didn't want to discuss it with Su Houli.
She knew Su Houli better than anyone else. If she really spoke, he would only make things worse.
At least she agreed to let Su Jiaojiao marry Lu Jingyou because she thought Lu Jingyou was a good person and was sincere to Su Jiaojiao.
But Su Houli might not think so. He would consider the Lu family's family background and then weigh the pros and cons to see what benefits he could gain.
When she thought of this, Chen Guilan felt that she should be strong. Instead of letting the Su family get involved in this matter, it would be better for her to face it alone.
Since the wedding date was set, Chen Guilan had no time to work and called Chen Guisheng every day to discuss the engagement with him.
Chen Guisheng said he would ask Old Lady Yin for help in finding a good day.
Su Jiaojiao was speechless: "No need to go through so much trouble. We are going back to attend my sister Juan's wedding in a few days. We can just book a date in those two days."
Engagement means that the man gives the betrothal gift and the wedding date, and the woman invites relatives and friends to have a meal as a witness.
There’s no need to even hire a host.
When Chen Juan got engaged, she held her engagement in the village, just to have a sense of ceremony.
Chen Guilan thought so too. The dates marked by Song Xiangyun were for her reference, and the specific dates were still decided by them.
Chen Guisheng also felt that this arrangement was quite good. They had accomplished two major things in one trip back, and September was also a good month, with several good days in it.
Besides, Su Jiaojiao is engaged and Chen Juan is getting married. There is no conflict between the two of them, so it doesn’t matter who comes first and who comes later.
Su Houli heard from Xu Yuxiang that Su Jiaojiao was going to get engaged. He was very angry and felt that Chen Guilan did not respect him.
His daughter is engaged, but as a father, he doesn't know about it?
