Jian Shu immediately understood Pan Ning's concerns. After listening to her, he waved his hand and said, "It's okay. We don't have so many taboos. Like you said before, those rumors are unreliable and don't believe them. As long as your family doesn't care about this, I don't care at all. I look forward to having you attend my wedding."
She had heard before that pregnant women couldn't participate, but she never believed it.
She said that the reason for this rumor in the past was mostly because pregnant women have lowered resistance, and coupled with the large number of people at moving weddings, the noise, the closed space, and the lack of air circulation, they would feel uncomfortable, so these old customs came into being.
In fact, as long as you are more careful, avoid crowds, and stay in secluded places, basically there will be no problems. In later generations, there are many people who go shopping, have late-night snacks, and eat banquets while pregnant. It is not so easy for them to get into trouble.
However, she couldn't say this directly. Just because she didn't mind didn't mean Pan Ning didn't mind; just because Pan Ning didn't mind didn't mean Ding Ming didn't mind; just because Ding Ming didn't mind didn't mean his family didn't mind.
Although she would be very sorry if Pan Ning could not attend her wedding, she could not let it cause conflicts or estrangement between Pan Ning and her family. That would not be good.
Pan Ning smiled, understanding her subtext, "Don't worry, they don't mind this matter. I couldn't say it before, but Ding Ming kept trying to persuade me!"
"Mingzi did the right thing. How could you not come to my wedding? If you refuse to come, I will go to your house in person tomorrow to invite you." Jianshu no longer had any scruples and started joking.
"If you know that, I won't come. I'll wait for you to invite me tomorrow. I'll come only after you visit me three times!" Pan Ning also pretended to regret.
Jian Shu raised his eyebrows proudly, "Haha - now you don't have that chance!"
"Oh! What a pity! If you had known this, I wouldn't have agreed." Pan Ning sighed regretfully.
"Is it too late to regret now? Can I take back what I said before?"
"It's too late! No!" Jianshu crossed his hands in front of his chest and made a "?" gesture.
"Okay." Pan Ning smacked his lips, looking regretful.
The three of them sat in the living room chatting, laughing and joking. In the meantime, some guests came to visit. They were all neighbors from the surrounding area, and they all came to congratulate them.
Although the wedding is tomorrow, firstly, everyone has to go to work and it is impossible to take leave just to attend the wedding; secondly, the location is a bit special and not very convenient, so we only invited two close relatives.
So many people came to congratulate us today.
As the saying goes, a close neighbor is better than a distant relative. Having lived here for a few years, Jian Shu can't say she's particularly popular, but she gets along well with everyone. She usually visits other families to offer congratulations whenever they have a happy event, so there were quite a few people here today.
Seeing this, Li Li and Pan Ning offered to leave. They were not so tactless as to think that the other party was busy and it was not appropriate for them to stay for long.
Anyway, the important matter they came here for today has been resolved, so there is no need to stay any longer, so as to avoid having Jianshu come to greet them and cause trouble for him.
This is inappropriate.
The two of them offered to leave, and Jianshu did not refuse.
Firstly, she really didn't have time to greet the two of them right now, and secondly, she was worried that too many people would be bad for the pregnant woman.
After sending the two of them out and instructing Li Li to send Pan Ning home safely, he began to entertain the guests with a smile on his face.
One person came every now and then, and soon the living room was full.
When it comes to talking, it is really noisy and lively.
With a smile on his face, Jianshu rubbed his ears imperceptibly, and couldn't help but feel relieved that Pan Ning had left.
At the same time, I was thinking that I had to arrange a suitable place for her tomorrow so that she wouldn't be disturbed.
As the protagonist, Jianshu was the topic of conversation among those who came to congratulate her. She kept talking about it and was praised so much that even a shameless person like her felt embarrassed.
Most of the people who come here are elders. As a junior, what else can Jianshu do?
I can only smile politely.
I laughed so hard that my face became stiff.
Fortunately, before lunch, the group of people said goodbye one after another in tacit understanding, leaving only the gifts they brought.
Enamel cups, towels, photo frames, mirrors, books, and paintings of model operas...
There are all kinds of small things, not expensive, but quite practical.
Only after everyone left did Jianshu breathe a sigh of relief.
It’s nice to be lively and bustling, but it’s too lively!
I rubbed my face hard and finally it became less stiff.
After lunch, Jianshu also joined in the afternoon to do the final checks.
In the evening, Zhao Mingze, who had just gotten off work, came over with Zhao Tianlei, and the family gathered together for a reunion dinner.
In previous years, there was always one person missing from the New Year’s Eve dinner, but now, everyone is here.
However, the atmosphere during the reunion dinner was a bit depressing. After all, who could be happy the night before their daughter's wedding?
"Gu must be so happy right now!" Zhao Mingze suddenly said with gritted teeth.
Zhao Tianlei pounded the table and agreed with a look of displeasure, "Yeah, I definitely wish time would pass quickly. It's already the next day in the blink of an eye."
However, this Gu is not that Gu. The person with the surname Gu mentioned by the two people is not the same person at all.
Lao Zhao was referring to Lao Gu, and Xiao Zhao was referring to Xiao Gu. Neither of them noticed anything was amiss, and seeing that the other agreed with their point of view, they quickly became united in their hatred of the enemy.
Meng Ying continued to eat as if she didn't notice. She was used to it. Besides, she was a little upset, and although she couldn't talk about it, it would be okay to listen to it to ease her mood.
As for Jianshu, she didn't dare say anything. If she agreed, that wouldn't be good; if she disagreed, that would be even worse. Wouldn't that just add fuel to the fire? She was afraid the father and son would get even angrier.
So he had no choice but to lower his head and eat in silence, looking like he was immersed in eating.
Don’t ask me, I just didn’t hear anything! I was just eating and didn’t know anything!
Both of them pretended to be dumb, and the remaining two younger ones didn't dare to interrupt.
So, only the Zhao family's father and son were left at the dinner table to denounce the Gu family's father and son.
On the other side, the private people were eating in silence.
One table, two worlds.
