Of course, Bai Ruoyun also had her own little thoughts. That was to wait until her second sister and the others left, and then she would take a sip when Bai Lishan drank the milk powder. She couldn't drink too much, but a few sips would be enough to satisfy her craving.
In fact, Bai Ruozhen understood her little thoughts as soon as she rolled her eyes. However, Bai Ruoyun had some little thoughts, but she didn't have any bad intentions, so she was too lazy to care about it.
Bai Ruozhen took out some more cloth and said, "Before the New Year comes, make some clothes for yourself and dad."
"Your eldest sister-in-law made it again?" Li Qiulan was very happy as she touched the fabric. "I feel so embarrassed. Don't buy it for us in the future. Now your father and Liqiang have salaries and we can make a living."
Bai Ruozhen smiled and agreed, saying, "I have to save some money. Liqiang never knows when he'll find a partner."
Speaking of Bai Liqiang, Li Qiulan sighed, "Your eldest brother has changed since last year, especially since he started working. He's become more adult-like. Now he doesn't even collect his salary himself, he always asks me to collect it. When this kid told him about dating, he got angry with me and said he'd wait a few years until Ruoyun and Lishan are older before he'll talk about it. He really worries more about me than I do."
Bai Ruozhen listened quietly. Although Li Qiulan complained, she was actually very happy about Bai Liqiang's change. Nothing makes parents happier than having obedient children.
Gu Changqing didn't return until after five o'clock. Bai Ruozhen knew from his expression that things were going well, and the joy in his eyes was simply unconcealable. Li Qiulan and Bai Jiansheng didn't ask what he had been doing. However, Bai Ruoyun did ask a question, but was fooled by Gu Changqing with a handful of candy.
After dinner, Gu Changqing and Bai Jiansheng drank tea and discussed marriage. Gu Changqing said, "Uncle, this is what I thought. I've already bought a house in Yancheng, and we'll move in directly after we get married in our hometown. So I thought we'd register for marriage as soon as Zhenzhen's birthday comes. If you and Auntie are free, you can come over. If you're not free and don't care, we'll definitely come over when we get some vacation time."
"Have you bought a house?" Li Qiulan's attention was focused on the front, and she didn't hear Gu Changqing mention registering for marriage on his birthday.
Gu Changqing smiled and said, "Yes, it has a small courtyard, next to my third brother's. But nowadays, buying houses is done secretly and we didn't dare to say anything. We just said we were renting it."
Li Qiulan and Bai Jiansheng nodded in unison, "That's right. Xiao Gu has thought it through very carefully."
"Then let's register our marriage on Zhenzhen's birthday?" Gu Changqing confirmed again.
"On her birthday?" Li Qiulan was stunned. "That means there's only half a year left."
Gu Changqing said sincerely, "Well, it's not a good idea for Zhenzhen to live with my fourth sister for too long. Besides, we've been together for more than half a year, and by the time we get married, we'll have been together for a year. I think it's time to get married. But don't worry, aunt and uncle. Since I've set my heart on Zhenzhen, I will treat her well for the rest of my life."
This is probably what a mother-in-law loves to hear the most. Li Qiulan said a little embarrassedly, "I mean, aren't we being too hasty? Look, our family doesn't have much to give her right now. And since she's still young, she probably won't get married so soon, so we can save up some dowry for her."
Bai Ruozhen suddenly looked up at her mother and said, "Mom, you don't need to pay for a dowry. I'm saving money myself."
Li Qiulan simply laughed helplessly, "What you earned is your own. When you get married, you have to give a dowry. If you can't tell others about it, people will laugh at our family."
"Why bother with them? As long as we are happy, that's fine." Bai Ruozhen retorted.
Li Qiulan poked her with her finger, "I see you just want to get married quickly and even mentioned saving up for your dowry. You're not ashamed."
Bai Ruozhen said, "That's right. I only make 20 yuan a month. I eat and drink in the kitchen all day, so I don't have any money to spend."
"Then you should save it for yourself and don't give money to your family anymore. Liqiang and I are the ones earning money, so you don't have to worry about it." Bai Jiansheng said, "Women can't live without money."
Bai Liqiang also nodded in agreement, "That's right, Second Sister, my master used to be a friend of our mother. She said that after the New Year, she will apply for me to be a regular employee. By then, I will have a salary of more than 30 yuan. Our family eats less now, so it won't cost much."
Bai Ruozhen smiled and said, "We'll talk about this later. Anyway, I think it's good to get married when I'm old enough."
Li Qiulan shook her head helplessly, "My daughter is grown up, I can't keep her here anymore."
"Staying in District 6 will only bring sorrow." Bai Ruoyun added, shaking his head.
Everyone in the room burst into laughter.
Bai Jiansheng sighed and said, "Since our daughter is so anxious to get married, we as parents can't stop her. As long as you two agree on it, it's fine. I may not be able to take leave, so ask your mother to take Liqiang and Ruoyun Lishan with you. Although we don't have any relatives in the Bai family, our brothers and sisters must go, otherwise we will be laughed at."
"Well, thank you, Dad." Bai Ruozhen said with a smile.
"Look how happy you are." Li Qiulan wiped her eyes. "Okay, it's getting late. Xiao Gu should go back and rest. Zhenzhen, you can see me off."
Gu Changqing stood up and said, "The things I brought are all in two bags. Let Zhenzhen take them out later. Anyway, I don't plan to take them back. Uncle and aunt have to keep them."
After saying that, he pulled Bai Ruozhen out the door.
When they got downstairs, Bai Ruozhen asked him, "Brother Changqing, when are you leaving?"
"You want to chase me away?" Gu Changqing raised his eyebrows and said unhappily.
Bai Ruozhen quickly waved his hands, "No, no."
"What's that?"
Bai Ruozhen blushed a little and said embarrassedly, "I just don't want you to leave."
I just want to be with you every day.
