It is now the tenth day of February, and it is only a little over a month away from the twenty-second day of March.
In addition, the mountains are high and the roads are long, so both sides only have about half a month to prepare.
The Tong family did not feel it was hasty, and the Ling family was naturally happy.
If you can get your son married sooner, you can have children sooner.
The two sides discussed the details of the wedding.
Liang Zhijun looked around the Tong family's environment and felt a lot of emotion.
If the second branch had not made preparations in advance, their lives would probably not be much better than the Tong family's.
"My dear relatives, I heard that you don't have many relatives in Shouzhou. Why don't you come back with us to Youzhou and settle down?"
The Tong family was shocked for a moment, but quickly came to their senses.
"How can this be possible!"
Tong Guitang was originally afraid that he would become a burden to his daughter. Now that his daughter has finally found a home, how could he go there and cause more trouble?
Even if he didn't know much about the Ling family, he could see that they were wealthy and powerful.
My family is marrying up, and if we go to Youzhou and people know that the Ling family has found a poor man as an in-law, how will they bully his daughter in private?
Tong Guitang shook his head firmly.
The hope in Tong Sinian's eyes gradually faded.
Ling Jihao couldn't bear to see her feel lost, so he started to persuade her.
He first said that his family had bought a new house and he was worried about no one to look after it.
Later he said that there were many people in the store and there were always troublemakers, so he needed someone with good skills to help watch over them.
"Uncle Tong, when I'm here, I can still intimidate those scoundrels. But after all, I can't stay at home for long.
I really don’t feel comfortable leaving my parents to look after the store alone.”
Ling Jihao frowned tightly, pretending to be worried.
Tong Guitang's mouth twitched, thinking that this reason was really "plain and simple", which made people want to refute it.
"Besides, if Si Nian marries there, she'll be unfamiliar with the place. If I go to the battlefield, how lonely will she be?
If you settle down in the capital, she will have her own family. Visiting them during festivals will make her feel much better."
When Tong Sinian was mentioned, Tong Guitang became somewhat interested.
"Besides, there's nothing to worry about here. Those few acres of land are just for food and drink. It's really not worth staying here."
Having said that, it is hard to leave one’s hometown.
Tong Guitang was undecided.
But it was still early, so he didn't need to draw conclusions on the spot.
The two families had a meal, chatted for a while, and then parted in the evening.
On the way, Liang Zhijun said to Ling Jihao, "That girl, Si Nian, is gentle and virtuous, and her family is well-educated and well-mannered. You, boy, have found a treasure!"
Ling Jihao laughed, looking like a fool.
He then calmed down and apologized to his mother.
"I have taken the initiative to give up my new home. I hope you will understand, mother."
Liang Zhijun snorted coldly: "You just remembered it now, you are really willing to give it up!"
Seeing Ling Jihao's stiff face, he couldn't help laughing.
"Haha, you're scared, right? I'm the only one who's generous, otherwise I'd definitely feel like I've raised a son for nothing.
Just give it to me, I won’t be staying here anyway. I’m not an outsider.
They saved your life and now they are marrying their daughter to you. What a great favor this is!"
Ling Jihao breathed a sigh of relief and diligently massaged Liang Zhijun's shoulders and legs.
Ling Weicun felt a little sour and coughed lightly. Ling Jihao hurried over and said, "Dad, you've worked hard too!"
I thought to myself, it must be so difficult for him to balance the relationship between his parents alone!
In the future, Si Nian and I must have more children, so that they can chatter around the old couple and keep them busy and smiling.
Over the next two days, the two families bought a lot of things together.
A lot of ideas were also put forward for the wedding.
In short, it is to keep things simple and fast.
The Tong family is not as pretentious as other families when marrying off their daughters. They know how difficult it is to be a soldier and want Tong Sinian to get pregnant before Ling Jihao returns to the team.
This not only reassured the Ling family and helped them gain a firm foothold, but also gave Ling Jihao something to worry about, so that he wouldn't fight so hard on the battlefield and would try to come back safely.
With the wedding approaching, it is impossible for the third wife to stay in Shouzhou for long.
Before leaving, Ling Jihao extended the invitation again, and this time Tong Guitang's attitude was not so tough.
Maybe his daughter was in a bad mood these past two days, crying from time to time, which made him feel soft-hearted.
Since his daughter doesn't think she is embarrassed, then what is there for him to be afraid of?
Go ahead. With him watching over her, the Ling family can take better care of Si Nian.
But even if I leave, I have to wait until Tong Sinian gets married.
Just like that, the engaged couple said goodbye to each other at the intersection. Ling Jihao left four guards to look after the Tong family before he went to pick up the bride.
***
In Youzhou, after the third wife left, the first wife also became nervous.
Changhe Academy is in its final sprint, and the students have not had a vacation for a long time.
Geng Suhua was afraid that Ling Jiran would not be able to contact Huang Minbo, so she found an excuse to deliver food to her youngest son and asked her daughter to make the trip for her.
After Chi Xingyue knew about it, he also prepared some food and supplies and went together with Ling Jiran.
Ling Jiran looked at his second sister-in-law's belly and felt that it was changing every day.
It's only been four months and it's already quite big. If it were to wait for the next birth, how big would it be?
Fortunately, although Chi Xingyue had a big belly, her movements were not affected much.
He walked with such vigor that Ling Jiran's heart was trembling with fear.
After much difficulty, he got into the car, with Ling Yizhu and Erzhu accompanying him for protection.
Even Baozhu stayed in the car and carefully observed the expression of the second young lady.
Chi Xingyue was left in a state of confusion: "Just relax a bit, it's only been four months, it's still early!"
"Madam, don't take it lightly!" Ling Yi reminded.
Chi Xingyue shut up, glanced at him, and thought to himself, "Humph, when you ask me for mercy, I definitely won't agree to it so readily!"
