Chapter 175 A Happy Marriage
The Ruan family was bustling all day, but returned to peace after dark.
The street lights are all on, as bright as day.
It was cold at night, and the elders would sit around the stove in the kitchen, brew tea, and chat about family matters.
In the yard, Ruan Xingyue was checking out.
Finally, the person in charge of the banquet left and the engagement banquet came to a temporary end.
In the rented red greenhouse, Ji Ling led the young people in playing mahjong. She laughed when she lost money, and she laughed even happier when she won money.
The whole yard was filled with her festive laughter, and she didn't even notice the cell phone flashing behind the chair.
Xu Zeqing, who is on a business trip, is still on the high-speed train and will arrive at Lenan High-speed Railway Station in half an hour.
Ruan Xingyue, who was tired after a day's work, just collapsed in the chair and closed her eyes to rest when a pair of bony hands rested on her shoulders.
I pressed lightly tentatively, and when she didn't object, I increased the frequency of the massage and became more bold.
She rubbed her nose, feeling very sleepy.
He smiled faintly as he spoke, "Be careful not to get caught by Ruan Ze. He just married off a daughter today and gave her a parrot as a dowry. He's very sensitive."
Ruan Xingyue looked up at him, "If you knew we were in love."
She pointed casually at the Lu family's private island in the distance: "His anger will burn that island."
Lu Fuchuan looked around with a nonchalant expression, even a little eager to try, wishing Ruan Ze would appear immediately.
Ruan Xingyue poked his chin and said, "Want to take advantage of this opportunity to become a regular employee? No way. Get into a prestigious university with a top major, and I'll personally bring you to my house to propose marriage."
Lu Fuchuan got so excited that he pinched Ruan Xingyue's collarbone.
She refused his approach: "If you have nothing to do, sign up for a class and practice. If you don't know how to press it, don't press it randomly."
He walked around to the front and knelt on one knee, right next to her crossed legs. His voice trembled with excitement: "Are you really willing to marry me?"
He didn't wear glasses because he could see that Ruan Xingyue liked the mole on his eyelid.
Whenever he looked at her like this, no matter how difficult his request was, she would stubbornly say no, but would give in after three attempts.
Ruan Xingyue pinched his chin, covered his eyes, and pushed away his face. "I want to get married. Can you marry me? My ID card says I'm only seventeen years old."
When Lu Fuchuan heard this, he felt desolate.
He still had five years to go before he turned 22, the age for marriage.
"I want to be twenty years old again." He rubbed her palm.
The phone vibrated, "Don't make trouble, I'll answer the call."
Xu Zeqing couldn't contact his girlfriend, so he could only contact Ruan Xingyue.
"Get off the high-speed train in 25 minutes." Ruan Xingyue confirmed again, "I'll pick you up. Lingling is exhausted today, let her rest."
Ruan Xingyue stood up and Lu Fuchuan followed with his long legs.
Seeing Ruan Xingyue's tired expression, he said, "Ask the driver to pick you up."
"I've already arranged for the driver to go out and take care of relatives who are far away. Oh, and where's Lin Youpeng? Isn't he here?"
Lu Fuchuan's eyes were burning, and he raised his eyebrows: "Secret."
Ruan Xingyue opened the car door, leaned against the window with one hand, and hooked her right index finger. Lu Fuchuan approached obediently. She pinched his chin again and said, "You have a secret with me? Huh?"
She teased him: "Say it or not?"
Lu Fuchuan was distracted, his mind full of dirty talk: "I won't tell you."
A face as cold as moonlight suddenly approached, and the loose tie was tugged. A sudden kiss fell, not more, not less, and then left after three turns. The tone was smiling: "Will you tell me?"
Lu Fuchuan rushed over like a dog, impatiently, "Kiss first."
The hand that was pulling the tie suddenly clenched and pulled it to the right. Lu Fuchuan was forced to lean to the right and missed the kiss.
Ruan Xingyue opened the car door and stepped into the driver's seat.
"If you want to go, hurry up. Old Xu will be waiting for you."
Lu Fuchuan looked at the time and decided to go early and come back early so that he could catch the surprise.
As luck would have it, Xu Zeqing had a lot of things to buy, so they went to the supermarket from the high-speed rail station before returning.
Ruan Xingyue saw that they were all things for girls.
"Lingling will spend the New Year with you here?"
"She hasn't agreed yet, but I can prepare the things first. Maybe she'll think about it and stay since she's already here."
The factory had to catch up on progress after the New Year, so Xu Zeqing increased his workload and didn't take any New Year holidays at all.
Ji Ling took a ten-day annual leave from the company and returned to work in Feihai City on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year.
Both of them have the intention of staying together for these ten days.
It’s just that Ji Ling is used to being tough, and Xu Zeqing doesn’t care. Giving her a way out is his strong point.
He just likes her little tsundereness.
"Where will Gu Xing and his friend spend the New Year?" he asked.
Gu Xing can drink, and Xu Zeqing has always wanted to drink with him.
"It's most likely here, and then I'll go back to the city after the New Year."
Lu Fuchuan put a little force on the steering wheel, looking straight ahead with a look of envy.
"Where is Mr. Lu? Where will he celebrate the New Year this year?" Xu Zeqing is tactful and considerate, and is used to taking care of everyone.
"A sanatorium." Lu Fuchuan explained calmly, "Winter is prone to infections, so Old Lu and I will live there."
He will be back tomorrow.
The teacher's wife's health was a heavy topic, and the car suddenly became extremely silent.
Expecting a miracle sounds pale and powerless.
I want to comfort her but it seems unnecessary.
Lu Fuchuan was more frank and rational than anyone else. "Old Lu and I have already prepared ourselves mentally. We just consider every day as a profit."
He glanced at his watch and changed the subject, "I'm about to miss the surprise. I'll drive faster."
Xu Zeqing got out of the car and headed straight towards Ji Ling.
Hearing the sound, he looked for his girlfriend.
He suddenly stopped in front of the mahjong table, gave Ji Ling a gentle push, and said with a hint of resentment, "Miss Ji."
Ji Ling tilted his head and exclaimed in surprise. He stood up and jumped into Xu Zeqing's arms, holding his waist tightly with his legs. "Old Xu! How did you fall from the sky? And you can't make it back in time, right?"
Xu Zeqing held her hips and stood still, gritted his teeth secretly: "Where's your phone? Did you lose the bet?"
Ji Ling turned around to look for his phone and pointed at a chair: "Over there, we used cash to play cards. You know what, cash is more exciting than transferring money. I almost lost everything."
She felt aggrieved.
Xu Zeqing smiled gently.
"It's okay, as long as you don't lose."
Ji Ling was almost coaxed into a ball of soft marshmallow, and his whole body was limp from laughing.
Suddenly realizing that there were people all around her, she slid down Xu Zeqing's thigh, looked around, and met countless pairs of teasing eyes. Embarrassment slowly crept up to her ears.
Not far away, Lu Fuchuan nodded thoughtfully.
Ruan Xingyue smiled helplessly: "Others are being sweet and cloying, why are you nodding your head?"
The palm of the hand that was hanging down was pinched: "I'm taking notes."
He gently pulled her to the drying yard without saying what he had learned.
The night is like a piece of velvet soaked in ink, gently covering the sky.
Lu Fuchuan called Gu Xing and asked, "Is my sister asleep?"
Gu Xing looked at Ruan Xingmian, who was drinking chicken soup after settling the bill, and shook his head and laughed, "Not yet. I'll probably be excited for another two hours."
"That's fine then. Take her to the roof of your house and look towards the village drying yard."
Gu Xing raised an eyebrow: "Is this the surprise you mentioned?"
Lu Fuchuan wanted to keep it a secret: "You'll know when you get up there."
"Who is it?" Ruan Xingmian couldn't finish the chicken, so he picked up a piece and gave it to Gu Xing.
Gu Xing finished his meal in a few bites, spit out the bones, found his down jacket from the closet, and draped it over Ruan Xingmian's shoulders.
She was only wearing a burgundy pajamas, her washed hair was casually draped, her face was without makeup, and her eyes smiled, her cheeks were rosy and lovely.
It was hard to bear to speak loudly to her, so she lowered her voice unconsciously, "It's a surprise prepared by Lu Fuchuan."
As soon as they stepped onto the roof and looked at the drying yard at the same time, the open space was suddenly split by a sudden beam of light.
First, a few scattered golden and red spots exploded in the air, as if someone had accidentally knocked over a box of stars.
The nine big characters "Gu Xing and Ruan Xingmian, may you live in a happy marriage for a hundred years" suddenly lit up, the font became larger and wider, and stood in the drying yard of Wangshanping, so that people in the city could see it.
Above the head, millions of sparks spread out along the path of the wind.
The layers of peonies, with tiny silver glints on the edges of their petals, proudly stretch out in the night.
A meteor with a long tail streaked across the sky, leaving behind the silhouettes of the two people hugging each other on the ground.
They smiled at each other, slowly moved closer to each other, and kissed passionately under the fireworks.
We want a happy marriage.
