"Boyi, do you have a flashlight at home? It gets dark quickly. I'm afraid it will be completely dark before Youchen gets home." Shumei turned around and asked Boyi who was packing things in the car.
"Yes, yes, I'll go find it right away." Boyi responded, took out the key, opened the gate and went in to find a flashlight. After a while, he ran out with a flashlight.
Shumei took the flashlight and squatted down, repeatedly reminding little Youchen, "Youchen! Remember not to play in the water, go directly to my house, and when you find Ningning, either play with her at my house, or bring Ningning home to play. This is the flashlight, hold it, and don't run around. It's dark and there are bad guys outside, remember?"
"I know - Mom!" Little Youchen responded with a smile and ran away impatiently.
She stood there, watching Xiao Youchen walk away, before she and Boyi moved the things from the car.
Boyi bought a lot of things, such as kettles, quilt covers, pillows, etc. He bought all new ones.
"Bo Yi! I've seen that we still have all these at home. You don't need to spend so much money on buying new ones. The children are still young, and we will have plenty of other expenses in the future!"
"Yes, I promised to give you a proper wedding. How can these things be old? Everything must be new. From now on, we have a new life. Everything must be brand new. This is the beginning of a happy life. Let's throw away all the unhappiness of the past and start from scratch."
Boyi responded to Shumei with a sincere heart, his happiness was beyond words.
Shumei felt happy after hearing this.
Boyi was hinting to her to forget all the previous sufferings, look forward, and bravely pursue a new life.
Yes! She really should let go of the old and embrace the new. No matter how many misfortunes she had experienced before, they were all in the past. What would greet her was a brand new life.
Happiness was so close to her, and this was not the first time. The first time, the upcoming happiness slipped away because of a house fire; the first time, cancer forced her to destroy the upcoming happiness with her own hands.
This time, it was the third time, and they both hoped it would be the last time.
Both of them were looking forward to the upcoming wedding banquet and were preparing for it wholeheartedly.
At the same time, another family in the village was also preparing for a wedding, that was the Fu family, who had just lost their spouse.
The commotion of Xiaomei's family that day and the intervention of the police only made him feel more at ease. The next day, when he learned that Xiaomei's family had actually taken Xiaomei's body away, he was even more ecstatic.
This was like adding wings to a tiger, as it saved him from wasting time dealing with Xiaomei's funeral and bought him more time to marry Zhang Xiaoqin.
He quickly asked his parents to throw out all the funeral items in the house and decorate the house nicely.
Seeing Fu Jun's unusual behavior, his parents couldn't help but ask, "Even if you don't want to see those things used by the deceased, just clean them up. There's no need to make the house look like a wedding, right? If outsiders see us, they might talk about us behind our backs."
Fu Jun looked at the newly renovated yard and stood there with his hands on his hips, looking very proud.
"What do you mean by 'acting as if it's a practical matter'? I'm planning to get married. Mother, please go find Wang Ba Zi and help me choose an auspicious date! The sooner the better."
Fu's mother was completely confused and looked at Fu Jun with a questioning look. She didn't believe what Fu Jun said at all.
"Are you—okay?"
Mother Fu stopped sweeping the floor, stood up straight, frowned, and asked hesitantly.
Fu Jun laughed out loud, walked over and grabbed his mother's shoulders, his good mood was beyond words.
"Mother, you're going to be a grandmother soon. Do you think I'm in trouble?"
"grandmother?"
"Mother, are you happy? Are you delighted? I have finally fulfilled my mission and can continue the Fu family's lineage."
Mother Fu was so shocked that she was stunned and couldn't recover for a while.
Fu Jun looked at his mother like this, thinking that she didn't believe him. "Mother, do you think I'm joking?"
Mother Fu came to her senses and realized that this incident was indeed too sudden.
If this is true, then the Fu family will not have to cut off the incense, and she and her husband will have the face to meet the ancestors of the Fu family.
"Ah Jun! You—you mustn't make fun of this kind of thing in front of my mother."
Although Fu's mother said she didn't believe it, she actually hoped very much in her heart that this was true.
Fu Jun let go of Fu Mama's hand, his expression becoming serious. "I knew you didn't believe me, but this is the truth, a truth no one can change. Mother, guess who your future daughter-in-law is?"
Fu Jun started to keep the secret and whispered in Fu's mother's ear in a mysterious tone.
"This—you—" Fu's mother looked at Fu Jun's serious expression. She seemed to have begun to believe what Fu Jun said. "Is everything you said true?"
"Oh! Mother, no matter how careless I am with my words, I wouldn't fool you with something like this, right?"
Fu's mother completely believed Fu Jun. She dropped the broom in her hand to the ground, her body shaking with excitement. She grabbed Fu Jun's hand with trembling hands and asked excitedly: "Jun, tell me quickly, who is the one who will carry on the family line for our Fu family? Is she really pregnant with your child? Tell me quickly, tell me quickly!"
At this point, Fu Jun no longer needed to hide the truth from his mother. "Mother, your wife! She is as far away as the horizon and as close as the eyes. She is Xiaoqin from the Zhang family next door."
"What? Xiaoqin? This - how is this possible?" When Fu's mother heard Xiaoqin's name, she held Fu Jun's hand even tighter.
"Mother, I've said this much, why don't you believe it?"
