Chapter 0 Extra: Old Li gets married
"Cui Cui, Dad is already so old, we don't need to do all those fancy things. Your Aunt Qin and I will go get a marriage certificate, and then we can just have a meal together as a family."
Lin Cuicui looked at Old Li with disapproval, "Dad, you can't say that in front of Aunt Qin. Dad, this is your first marriage after all, so you can't be careless. Besides, we're just buying some furniture and some clothes for Aunt Qin. We don't dare to make a big fuss about the rest."
"Okay, that's fine if you want, but we don't need 36 legs or anything like that. We really don't need them."
Lin Cuicui waved her hand and said, "Dad, just wait for your wedding with Aunt Qin. Leave the rest to me. I will definitely take care of it for you."
Old Li was helpless. Tang Shengkai looked at Xixi and said to Old Li, "Dad, getting married is a lifelong event. This is the only time we should have everything we deserve. Besides, we have the means, so why should we be so shabby?"
It’s as if we don’t want to get married.”
"Hey, Third Brother, to be honest, your father and I couldn't even imagine living like this before. I'm really satisfied to be able to live like this. Your Aunt Qin also said that she doesn't care about those things now."
Lin Cuicui's big eyes were full of smiles, and she said with a hint of ridicule, "Dad, if you say so, I have even more to say. Dad, to be honest, if it weren't for the current world, do you think it is possible for you and Aunt Qin to know each other?
What is the status of my Aunt Qin? She is the daughter of a wealthy family. Dad, you can marry Aunt Qin, it is really..."
"Eight generations of ancestors are praying for you." Old Li replied, giving Lin Cuicui a cold look.
Lin Cuicui and Tang Shengkai smiled at each other.
Old Li sat on the bench with a droopy look on his face. "If we schedule it for a week, will Yueyue be able to come back?"
Old Li really wanted Tang Yue to come back to attend their wedding, but he was unsure whether Yueyue could make it back.
Tang Shengkai smiled and said, "Don't worry, Dad. Yueyue will be back in the next few days and will definitely make it."
Old Li was visibly happy and took Xixi out for a walk.
Lin Cuicui sat on the side counting things on paper, while Tang Shengkai sat next to her watching.
As she was writing, Lin Cuicui looked up and said, "Third brother, do you think we should buy a house for Dad outside? Dad and Aunt Qin are married now, so we can't just rent a house."
Tang Shengkai thought about it and thought it was feasible. "Okay. But is there anyone selling a house? I don't know if I can buy it."
This really stumped Lin Cuicui. They had been in South Island for several years, but Lin Cuicui hadn't been out much. "Let's go out for a walk tomorrow. Look around, maybe we can run into him."
"good!"
At this time, a young soldier ran in and said, "Report to Captain Tang."
Tang Shengkai stood up and asked, "What's wrong? Is there a mission for the troops?"
"No! It's Commander Kang who wants to see you."
"good!"
"Brother San, go ahead. Will you come back for dinner tonight?"
Tang Shengkai said as he walked out, "Yes, I will definitely come back."
"Report! Commander, are you looking for me?"
Commander Kang was very happy now. "Well, Kyoto called and said that you all will be transferred to Kyoto. Is there any unit you want to go to?"
Tang Shengkai's eyes flashed and he understood what was going on. "I'll follow the organization's instructions."
Commander Kang smiled and said, "You can ask for anything you want. They will definitely consider it."
Tang Shengkai shook his head. "Commander, I really don't have any requirements. As long as I'm in the army, that's all."
Commander Kang nodded, but didn't continue the conversation. "Oh, by the way. We've prepared six courtyards for the little girl. You can go over and take a look. If you're not satisfied, you can change."
Tang Shengkai......
His daughter... well, he didn't know what to say.
"Thank you, Chief!"
Teacher Kang smiled and waved his hands, "I should be the one thanking you, if it weren't for the little girl..."
Commander Kang didn't say the rest, but both of them understood what he meant.
"The intention from Kyoto is to get there as soon as possible, preferably within a week."
"So urgent?"
Commander Kang looked at Tang Shengkai with a smile, "What? Haven't you had enough of South Island?"
Tang Shengkai scratched his head embarrassedly, "Not really, it's just that my dad is planning to get married to Aunt Qin recently, and my husband has been busy with the arrangements these days."
Teacher Kang hadn't expected this. "Haha, you have six courtyards in Kyoto. The kids are all little now, wouldn't it be perfect to go there?"
Tang Shengkai thought that this was the case.
"Hey? Third brother, why are you back so early?"
Tang Shengkai looked around and asked, "Dad hasn't come back yet?"
"Well, I can walk around a lot these days. Dad takes Xixi for a long walk every day."
Tang Shengkai smiled, "Maybe he'll go to Aunt Qin's place again."
Lin Cuicui also laughed, "It's okay, Xixi has already reached the first level of Qi training, he can protect Dad."
Tang Shengkai felt proud when he heard this. However, he still quickly told Lin Cuicui about his trip to Kyoto.
"Ah? You're all going to be transferred to Kyoto? And the time is so tight. What about Dad and Aunt Qin's marriage?"
"Let's go to Kyoto. We're all leaving now, so we can't let Aunt Qin and Dad stay in South Island. It won't work if no one takes care of them."
Lin Cuicui thought it made sense, but it was just too sudden. "Then we need to go talk to Aunt Qin right away. Don't let her misunderstand."
"Let's go now while it's still early."
As expected, Old Li brought Xixi to Qin Diao's place. When Qin Diao saw Lin Cuicui and Tang Shengkai coming together, he hurried over to say hello.
"Come in and sit down."
"Aunt Qin, you're welcome. It's not cold now, shall we sit in the yard for a while?"
"Oh, that's all right!" Xiao Moyan made two bowls of brown sugar water for Lin Cuicui and Tang Shengkai. "Uncle, aunt, drink some water."
"Hey. Yanyan is so good!" Lin Cuicui smiled and touched Xiao Moyan's hair.
Qin Diao knew that Lin Cuicui and Tang Shengkai must be in trouble. After the children had all gone into the house, Qin Diao asked, "Third brother, Cuicui, what's the matter?"
She thought it was about marrying Old Li, something they had already agreed to, and she didn't think they would disagree. Then it must be about the supplies. Old Li had just come over and said the children wanted to prepare more for them.
At Qin Diao's age, material possessions really didn't matter to her. She had been living a truly comfortable life on South Island. She hadn't felt this free since her family members passed away one after another.
Lin Cuicui smiled and held Qin Diao's hand. "Aunt Qin, we did come here for something. I feel really sorry for you. But we just received the news and came here immediately."
Old Li was getting nervous. What did Cuicui mean? Why couldn't he understand?
"Cui Cui, what's going on? Don't you..."
