Chapter 537 Preparation
Chen Guisheng and Zhao Shunfa arrived in the imperial capital three days before their wedding. It was the first time for both of them to travel far away.
Lu Jingyou booked plane tickets for them. Wang Hua and Chen Guilan went to pick them up at the airport together, had lunch outside, and then returned to Jinyuan.
These days, Wang Hua goes to Jinyuan every day to see if he can help. For his leader's wedding, he took his annual leave in advance, and it was paid leave.
When Chen Guilan saw Chen Guisheng and Zhao Shunfa, she burst into tears of joy and took them to stay on the first floor. Since she came back from her hometown last time, she had been busy preparing for Su Jiaojiao's wedding. Although they often contacted each other by phone, they were still very excited when they actually met.
Chen Juan didn't come not because of Xu Yue'e's health, but because she had just been diagnosed with pregnancy.
"That's great! It's a double blessing for our family." Chen Guilan was delighted. "Just take good care of her. I wouldn't dare come here from such a long distance."
"The Xi family won't eat the Xi family's food, and it's not appropriate for her and Jiaojiao to meet." Chen Guisheng was on a long trip for the first time, and he felt a little awkward sitting on the sofa. "The capital is different. There was a traffic jam when we came back."
"Yes, there are a lot of cars and people on the road. The imperial capital is prosperous." Zhao Shunfa stood in front of the window and looked out curiously. "Auntie, the birds in your community are not afraid of people. They don't hide when they see people."
Chen Guilan just smiled and said, "You must be tired from the journey. Get some sleep first and then go upstairs for dinner. Jiaojiao is busy these past two days and won't be back until tonight."
When Su Jiaojiao heard that Chen Guisheng and Zhao Shunfa had arrived, she bought some roast duck and brought it back. During the meal, Zhao Shunfa teased her, "The bride is so busy. If Xiao Lu knew about this, he would be heartbroken."
"Yeah, I told her not to go out these past two days, but she didn't listen." Chen Guilan couldn't do anything about Su Jiaojiao. "There's always work to do, especially at the garment factory. You should give yourself a couple of days off."
"Some goods arrived from Qimei today, and I went to take a look." Su Jiaojiao said with a smile, "Don't worry, I won't go out tomorrow, just stay home."
Marco Bo has already made preparations. He found a few people from the workshop to serve as models and has been rehearsing for the past two days.
The clothes for Lu Jingyou and his team had been delivered a long time ago. After trying them on, they gave very good feedback and said they fit them very well.
"You're getting married the day after tomorrow, so you can't go out anymore." Chen Guilan has been very anxious these two days. Whenever Su Jiaojiao comes back late, she starts to have all kinds of wild thoughts.
It is said that brides suffer from pre-marital anxiety. She did not notice that Su Jiaojiao was anxious, but it was she, the mother-in-law, who was anxious.
She paid attention to the weather forecast every day, worried that it would snow on her daughter's wedding day and worried about strong winds. Sometimes she would wake up in the middle of her sleep and say she had dreamed of rain.
"Yes, Jiaojiao, you're getting married soon. Stay home and spend time with your mother." Chen Guisheng, after all, had been through this before, and said with a smile, "Your mother's thoughts are all on you."
"My mother is just worried. I'm married and it's not like I won't come back, but she's worried about me in this and that way." Su Jiaojiao is busy every day and doesn't feel nervous. It's Chen Guilan who is suspicious all the time. If she comes home a little late, she will call her non-stop.
"I'm not worried, but marriage is a big deal. You should stay at home and prepare for the wedding instead of running around." No one could understand the torment Chen Guilan had been going through these days, let alone Su Jiaojiao. When other people's daughters got married, the whole family would see them off, but she was alone.
Although Chen Guisheng and Zhao Shunfa came, they were men after all, and it was not convenient for them to interfere in some matters.
Old Mrs. Lu was quite understanding. She said that she would ask Song Xiangyun and Mrs. Wu to come over to help on the wedding day, and that family members should help each other, which made her feel a lot more at ease.
"Okay, okay, I won't go out tomorrow." Su Jiaojiao poured tea for Chen Guisheng and Zhao Shunfa and said with a smile, "From now on, no matter where I go, I will take my mother with me, otherwise my phone will be ringing like crazy."
Whenever she was not at home, Chen Guilan would call her every two or three hours to confirm her location, which made her nervous.
"Your mother cares about you." Chen Guisheng lit a cigarette and put it down. "She only has one daughter like you. You have to take good care of her."
The three of them were chatting when Lu Jingyou arrived. Chen Guilan went to open the door and was surprised to see him: "Xiao Lu, why are you here?"
She was still thinking about the custom that they couldn't see each other before marriage.
I even hesitated to let him in.
"My second uncle and brother-in-law are here, so I came to see them." Lu Jingyou walked in carrying a lot of bags and greeted Chen Guisheng and Zhao Shunfa as soon as he entered the door. "I wanted to go to the airport to pick them up, but something was delayed. I apologize for the poor hospitality, second uncle and brother-in-law."
"You're so polite. We know you're busy." Chen Guisheng had a good impression of Lu Jingyou and asked him to sit down. Su Jiaojiao hadn't expected him to come, so she poured him a cup of tea and asked, "Have you eaten yet?"
"I've eaten." Lu Jingyou looked at her with a smile, "Starting tomorrow, I won't be going to the suburbs of Beijing. I'm taking a month off for my wedding."
"That's good." Su Jiaojiao caught his gaze and smiled, "I won't go out tomorrow either."
Marco's two orders were shipped smoothly, and she finally felt relieved.
Now that the workshop is making their own goods, time is not so tight.
"Then I'll come pick you up tomorrow and we'll go out for dinner together." Lu Jingyou stood up and poured tea for Chen Guisheng and Zhao Shunfa. Chen Guilan hurriedly said, "Xiao Lu, don't come tomorrow. You finally have a day off. Rest well at home."
"It's okay, don't mind it. We still have to go to Yundu for rehearsal the day after tomorrow." Lu Jingyou understood, "I came here today, my grandma and the others know."
Only then did Chen Guilan stop talking.
"Congratulations, Xiao Lu, you're getting married too." Zhao Shunfa finally spoke, "I wish you a happy marriage and a baby soon."
"Thank you, brother-in-law." Lu Jingyou was very happy to hear this and said to Chen Guisheng, "Thank you, second uncle, for coming to my wedding with Jiaojiao. I feel very honored."
"As you should." The more Chen Guisheng looked at Lu Jingyou, the more satisfied he became. "Our Jiaojiao is marrying far away. You must treat her well."
"Don't worry, uncle. I will treat her well." Lu Jingyou said, holding Su Jiaojiao's hand, and said seriously, "I will never let her suffer any grievances."
"That's good." Chen Guisheng was very pleased to hear this, and said to Su Jiaojiao, "You should also treat Xiao Lu well. Respect and love each other, and your life will get better and better."
"Thank you, second uncle. I will definitely treat him well." As the wedding was approaching, Su Jiaojiao felt calmer. She and Lu Jingyou had been through a journey of sweetness and ups and downs, but she had never regretted her choice.
Every day from now on will be a new day.
She will experience and feel with her heart and welcome the beauty that belongs to her.
