Jiang Shushu returned home and called Jiang He and his wife together.
"Mom and Dad, there's something I want to tell you. Xiaobei and I are planning to get our marriage certificate today. What do you think?"
Jiang He and his wife looked at each other, winked at each other, and had a brief exchange of ideas.
"Did you know about this?"
"I don't know."
Jiang He: "When did you decide?" He didn't reveal a word.
"Today, just now."
Jiang He was helpless, "You proposed it?"
"Haha, yes, it wasn't my dad. He just knows me well. I was the one who asked first. I happened to be free today, and it was a beautiful day with bright sunshine. I thought it would be a good idea to get the marriage certificate."
Jiang He: "..." Is it really okay to be so careless about such a big thing?
"Shushu, Xiaobei's legs can't walk yet, so let's not bother him. Why don't we wait a little longer? Wait until Xiaobei's legs are better, then you can get the marriage certificate." It's still early to the wedding, so there's no need to be so anxious.
Jiang Shushu: “…” It made me feel like I was forcing myself on someone.
"Besides wanting to get the marriage certificate, there's actually another reason. Xiaobei can be discharged from the hospital, and I'm worried about him living alone in the dormitory. I want him to live here, but it's not legal and I don't know what to do. So I thought about getting the marriage certificate in advance so that it's legal. Anyway, we're getting married in about 20 days, so it doesn't make any difference whether we get it earlier or later."
Jiang He: "Then get it. After getting the certificate, ask Xiaobei to come live here. It will be convenient for us to take care of him at home."
Xu Hehua: "Then your dad and I will go to the hospital to help Xiaobei pack his things, and you two can go get the marriage certificate. Just come back directly after you get it."
Jiang Shushu returned to his room, closed the door, and took out the household registration book from the small space.
The Jiang family of three came to the hospital. The person taking care of Yang Xiaobei also knew the news in advance. When he saw Jiang Shushu's family of three, he greeted them politely and went to complete the discharge procedures.
After packing up their things, Jiang He and his wife carried their things home. Jiang Shushu pushed Yang Xiaobei and walked slowly on the street towards the Civil Affairs Bureau.
The two walked and stopped on the road and arrived at the Civil Affairs Bureau at 2:30 in the afternoon.
The combination of Jiang Shushu and Yang Xiaobei, a pretty girl and a handsome guy, was already eye-catching enough, and with them pushing a wheelchair, it became even more eye-catching. From the moment they entered the Civil Affairs Bureau, they had a 200% head-turning rate, attracting constant stares.
Passerby 1: This woman is so beautiful, how could she be so stupid as to marry a disabled man?
Passerby 2: This guy is amazing. Even though his legs are disabled, he can still find such a beautiful wife. I have healthy legs, but my wife wants to divorce me. It’s really unfair!
Passerby 3: True love, true love, absolutely true love. Breaking through numerous obstacles, breaking through worldly perspectives, running hand in hand towards a happy marriage, so romantic! This is true love!
…
Yang Xiaobei felt awkward. "Shushu, how about we do it another time?"
Jiang Shushu glanced at the people next to him and deliberately raised his voice, "What's the point of changing it? We've all picked a date. We're both free today. Is it easy to come here? Look at you, how could you be so careless so early in the morning? You even twisted your ankle while walking. Fortunately, the procedure for getting a marriage certificate is simple. Now that we're here, let's get the marriage certificate first, otherwise we'll have to make another trip in a few days." After Jiang Shushu finished speaking, he patted Yang Xiaobei's shoulder gently, motioning him to cooperate.
"Okay, I'll listen to you and get the marriage certificate today."
Others: “…” It turns out he just sprained his foot, what a waste of our feelings.
Passerby 3 was the hardest to accept, with a look of sadness on his face: true love is gone just like that, how could the love I thought was the best in the world just be gone like that? I just imagined over 10,000 words of their epic, moving love story in my mind, and it turned out to be fake. Wow, what a waste of my brain power.
The others understood the situation and stopped staring at Jiang Shushu and the other two. They just went about their business.
Half an hour later, the two calmly walked out of the Civil Affairs Bureau with their marriage certificate. Then they looked at the marriage certificate again and again, and even exchanged it with each other.
"This marriage certificate doesn't have a photo, it's not perfect." There are only names but no photos, so we don't know who is with whom. I don't know when this can be improved.
"When my leg is healed, we'll take the photo ourselves. We'll make it smaller and put it on the marriage certificate."
"Okay, Mr. Yang, I hope you will give me your guidance for the rest of my life. If I have done anything wrong, please forgive me. If I have done something wrong, please tell me and I will correct it." Jiang Shushu stretched out his right hand.
Yang Xiaobei held Jiang Shushu's hand and said, "Mrs. Yang, please bear with me for the rest of my life. If I have done anything inappropriate, please forgive me and I will improve. If I have done anything wrong, please point it out and I will correct it and will not make the same mistake again next time. If you encounter any difficulties, you are welcome to tell me at any time and I will do my best to help you. Whether you are happy or not, I welcome you to share it with me. If you are happy, I will be happy with you. If you are unhappy, I will share half of your sadness so that you will not be so sad..."
Jiang Shushu: “…” I feel like I haven’t said enough, and it seems less sincere. This guy is so sweet-talking today, he’s been talking for five minutes, right?
"You have such sweet words today. What you say is so sweet to the ear."
"Haha, no way. These are all my true words, my heartfelt words." It's only been five minutes, how can it be long? Getting the marriage certificate is such a big thing today, I'm so happy that I can't say more. If we weren't outside, I could talk to you for at least half an hour.
…
The two returned to the Jiang family. Before Jiang Shushu and the others could speak, Jiang He and his wife couldn't wait to speak first.
"How's it going? Have you got your marriage certificate?"
"I got it."
"Hurry up and show it to me. Your parents and I haven't even seen the marriage certificate yet. Let's see what it looks like."
Jiang Shushu and Yang Xiaobei handed over their marriage certificates respectively.
Jiang He and his wife each took a copy, opened it carefully, and looked carefully at the words on the marriage certificate inside, saying "OK, OK, OK" all the time.
Yang Xiaobei cleverly stepped forward and called out affectionately, "Dad, Mom, I'm coming to stay today. Sorry to bother you."
Now Jiang He and his wife laughed even more happily. They quickly took out red envelopes from their pockets and put them into Yang Xiaobei's hands with smiles on their faces.
"Xiaobei, this is the fee for changing your words. It's the custom in our village. It's a small token of my appreciation. Please accept it." The son-in-law's way of calling mom and dad was so sweet.
Yang Xiaobei also knew this rule, so he was not awkward. He accepted the red envelope generously and gave Jiang He and his wife a big joke. "Thank you, Dad, thank you, Mom."
"You're welcome, you're welcome, we're a family, a family."
