Chapter 6 Marriage - The Sickly Young Girl's Daily Life of Eating Watermelons in the Courtyard

After doing some shopping, the newlywed couple Cen Xi and Lin Qing returned to the Lin family's home.

"You're back!" When Lin's mother saw the two of them coming back together, she immediately greeted them warmly.

"Where's the marriage certificate? Let me see it!" Lin's mother was really worried unless she saw the certificate.

Lin Qing also knew what her mother was thinking, so she handed the marriage certificate in her hand to him.

Mother Lin wiped the tears from her eyes as she watched, "Great, great! My daughter is finally married." He finally didn't have to worry about the day when she would send her daughter to the countryside herself.

God knows, she has been really anxious these past few months, but now that she has finally settled down, she feels at ease.

"Mom, what you said makes it seem like I can't get married." Lin Qing deliberately came up to her and said.

"You~, how could I mean that?" Mother Lin looked at Guaiguai who was acting cute in front of her, and a wave of reluctance surged in her heart.

If I don't get married, I'm worried. If I get married, I'm reluctant. Sigh~

Cen Xi just sat aside and did not disturb the mother and daughter too much.

But Lin's mother was not an inconsiderate person. When she saw her new son-in-law sitting there alone, she realized that she seemed to have neglected him just now.

"Look at me, I just ignored the new aunt!"

"It's okay, Auntie."

"You're still calling me auntie, it's time to change your tone!"

"Mom——" Cen Xi pursed his lips, a little nervous, but still shouted loudly.

"Eh——" Lin's mother also responded from the bottom of her heart.

This is a rare good son-in-law for her family, but no matter how good a son-in-law is, he must be good to her daughter.

"Why did you buy so much cloth again? You're really wasting money." Although Lin's mother looked disgusted, she was also afraid that her new son-in-law would be unhappy about spending money on her daughter.

"Mom, these are all what we should do, and they didn't cost much. Qingqing even saved money for me today!" Cen Xi didn't know if she understood what she said, but he felt that these expenses should have been included.

When Lin Qing heard him call her Qingqing, she was a little slow to react. People in her family usually called her Nannan, and no one had ever called her by this name!

She suddenly felt her ears burning.

Today is the day they get their marriage certificate, so the Lin family has made an appointment and everyone has to come back for lunch today.

Father Lin originally wanted to have a couple of drinks with Cen Xi, but unfortunately he had to go to work, so he skipped the wine.

Maybe because the two were already married, Lin's mother was not afraid that Zhang Mei and Lin Shu would cause any more trouble, so she did not chase them and stop them from talking today.

Just then, during the meal, Zhang Mei caught a chance to ask, "I haven't asked my brother-in-law yet, where is your share of the house?"

"I heard that she will be assigned to Osmanthus." Cen Xi suddenly heard the question from his wife, his sister-in-law. Although he didn't know why she suddenly asked this, he still answered honestly.

"Guihuali? What a coincidence! It turns out that my brother-in-law also works in the machinery factory. Our Xiaoshu will also marry into Guihuali in the future. Which courtyard did you get?" Zhang Mei couldn't help muttering in her heart. This mother-in-law is really strict.

It was only after his sister-in-law got married that he found out that his brother-in-law also worked in a machinery factory.

The area around Guihua is full of large courtyards. I heard that the large courtyards here were all built by the landlords in the past in imitation of the courtyard houses in the capital.

"I don't know much about this yet. It's just that it's a large compound in the Guihua area. It will take another two days to find out which compound it's assigned to."

"Oh! How many rooms can it be divided into?" Zhang Mei continued to ask.

She thought that she didn't need to ask about her brother-in-law's position in the factory, but she could find out how many rooms he was assigned, so that she could get a general idea of ​​how his work was going.

"Why are you asking so many questions?" Lin's mother quickly stopped her from talking.

Lin Qing still ate her meal quietly. She felt that her mother would take care of everything.

Although Lin Shu was also eating her meal with her head down, she was obviously not as focused as Lin Qing. She kept stopping her chopsticks, and it was obvious that she was listening carefully with her ears tilted up!

Unexpectedly, this uncle-in-law also worked in the machinery factory, and the house he was allocated happened to be in the large courtyard in the osmanthus garden where Jiang Yang lived.

"It won't hurt to ask." Zhang Mei murmured.

"You should hurry up and arrange your daughter's marriage! Nannan has already received the marriage certificate, but what about Xiaoshu? What are your plans?"

Zhang Mei opened her mouth, not knowing what to say. She was worrying about what to do at home and whether she should marry her daughter.

This sister-in-law is already married, but the Jiang family didn't even think of proposing marriage. What a shame.

Lin Shu is also her granddaughter, and she doesn't necessarily want her to be bad, but she was busy with her own daughter's affairs before, and now that she has some free time, she starts to ask about her granddaughter's affairs.

She didn't want to say more before because she thought Zhang Mei and her daughter might not like her meddling, so she just wanted to let them handle the matter themselves!

I didn't expect that such a long time has passed and there is still no movement from the Jiang family.

"You can ask a matchmaker to urge them to get engaged as soon as possible. I heard that the Youth League Office is urging them even more. You can avoid getting into trouble. The sooner you get engaged, the easier it will be."

Lin Shu couldn't help but clench the chopsticks in her hand. She knew that what her grandma said was true. At this moment, she couldn't help but wonder why the Jiang family hadn't mentioned the marriage yet?

"I know, Mom, I'll hold on tight."

Zhang Mei also realized that she was getting anxious. Although she wanted to gain some benefits from her daughter's marriage, she didn't really want her daughter to go to the countryside. Now that she knew that the Youth Educated Bureau was urging her to go to the countryside, how could she not be anxious?

Speaking of the Jiang family, they are indeed also talking about the marriage of Jiang Yang and Lin Shu.

"Mom, are we really not going to hurry up and arrange for someone to propose marriage?"

"Second brother, why are you in such a hurry? We are not the ones who should be the most anxious about this marriage. Just calm down."

"But……"

"But what buts? If we wait a few more days, we can get the betrothal money." Aunt Jiang was not willing to pay such a large betrothal money.

Mrs. Jiang was listening at the table. She didn't have many opinions on this, and she was not willing to spend too much money on the bride price.

The Jiang family hasn't split up yet, and the betrothal money is paid by the whole family. If too much money is spent on the betrothal money, isn't it just spending her money?

If you have that money, you might as well spend more on her health so that she can give birth to a son!

After hearing what his mother said, Jiang Yang opened his mouth and swallowed what he was about to say.

Although he wanted to get married as soon as possible, he really didn't want to spend too much money, otherwise he wouldn't have gone from being amazed at Lin Qing to being disgusted when he first saw her.

He and his mother have one thing in common, which is that they are very generous. Of course, he is only generous to others, but he is very generous to himself.

But he was not used to being a bad guy openly, so since his mother said so, he just agreed.

Anyway, it doesn't matter whether you get married early or late.

…

Cen Xi and Lin Qing discussed with Lin's father and mother and decided not to have a large banquet, and just have two tables at the bride's house.

After all, Cen Xi was new to this machinery factory, and it was not appropriate for him to show off at such a sensitive time. He simply waited until the move to give out some wedding candies to the neighbors, and the marriage would be considered a done deal.
