"It's only right. When a girl marries into our family, we should hold a wedding ceremony for her."
Li Donghai nodded after hearing what his wife said, and then said: "I won't tell my in-laws about my daughter's marriage this time, so as to avoid making them think too much."
"OK."
In this way, the family made dumplings and chatted at the same time, and they finished them in a short while.
Then after dinner, the two elders looked at their grandson for a while and then went back to the house to rest.
The next day, the couple got up before dawn and began to clean the house and cook.
Around seven in the morning, the Fang family borrowed a truck and brought over the betrothal gifts.
This caused a sensation in the entire textile factory’s staff quarters.
The truck was loaded with three wheels, a ring, a TV, and thirty-two legs.
A kettle, an enamel basin, six sets of bedding, and two large bags of new clothes.
The entire family compound was so shocked that their jaws dropped.
When the Li couple heard the noise, they ran downstairs and saw so many things. They were a little overwhelmed.
"My dear, mother-in-law, we are here today to give Linlin a betrothal gift, and we plan to hold a wedding for our two children at Liuquanju the day after tomorrow." Wu Mei got out of the car, took Zhao Chunmei's hand, and said with a smile.
Zhao Chunmei lowered her voice and asked Wu Mei, "Mother-in-law, isn't this a bit too much? And going to Liuquanju, isn't it too conspicuous?"
"Don't worry, mother-in-law. We have prepared everything and are just waiting to come and marry Linlin the day after tomorrow."
Wu Mei patted her mother-in-law's hand and told her four sons to start moving things downstairs.
On the other side, Fang Yuanshan also told Li Donghai not to worry, as they had made all the arrangements.
He followed the others upstairs and held his grandson tightly in his arms.
"Linlin, my mother-in-law's house is a little small and can't hold so many things. I'll ask Xiaoyi to move all the things to your house. Just leave these clothes and a few large pieces behind."
Wu Mei watched her sons carry several large items up to the living room, which left not much space, and turned to Li Lin and said.
"House? What house?" Li Lin asked in confusion.
"Kid, what kind of house could it be? Of course it's the house your father and I prepared for you!"
Wu Mei saw Li Lin's stunned expression and said helplessly: "In our family, we separate when we get married. You and Xiaoyi don't have a house after you get married, so your father and I prepared one for you."
"After Xiaoyi leaves, if you want to live with us, then stay. If you don't want to, then go back to your parents' home or your own home. Your father and I are not picky."
Wu Mei didn't care what others thought, she just smiled and said: "I think it's better for you to stay with your children at your mother-in-law's house. I have applied for retirement since I returned to Kyoto, but the higher-ups don't agree, so I will go back to work while I take care of your affairs."
"Sometimes I get busy and am not at home for several days, especially your dad. So my suggestion is that you stay at your mother's house. When I am no longer busy, I will come and pick you up and take you home."
"Okay, I'll listen to you." Li Lin was really touched when she heard this and nodded in agreement.
Seeing this, Wu Mei glanced at the people outside the door, took out the prepared gift from her pocket and said:
"Linlin, in addition to the three turns and two rings, thirty-two legs, six sets of bedding, two packages of new clothes, and a house prepared for you."
"Mom and Dad have prepared a job for you, and there is 666 yuan. This amount is a little less, you and your in-laws, don't mind it!"
"No, no."
