"Dad, I'm Xiangxiang." Chu Xiang walked over and handed the little tiger to him, "Look, this little tiger mom made has always been with me."
"Little Tiger?" Chu Ruilin looked up suddenly when he saw the doll. Seeing a girl who looked very similar to his wife, his eyes widened immediately. "Xiangxiang, you, you are Xiangxiang?"
"Yes, I'm Xiangxiang." Chu Xiang nodded, "Dad, why do you have so many white hairs?"
The father in my memory was young and handsome, but the father in front of me is old and haggard.
She has grown up and her father has grown old. She wishes time would go slower and not let her father grow old.
Chu Ruilin was delighted at first, but then he thought of something and shook his head, "You are not Xiangxiang. My Xiangxiang is only this small. You are an undercover agent sent by Japan. You are a bad guy. You are the evil thief who came to snatch my Xiangxiang away!"
He became excited. Chu Xun was afraid that he would hurt Chu Xiang, so he quickly stepped forward and held him down. "Dad, she is really my sister. It has been more than 20 years. My sister has grown up. Dad, I have not let you down. I found my sister."
"Xiangxiang... has grown up?" Chu Ruilin calmed down and looked at Chu Xiang carefully.
Li Xiyue came over and said with a smile: "Uncle Chu, Xiangxiang is back, and her aunt has something to say to you."
"Yes, Dad, I saw Mom. She asked me to tell you that she doesn't blame you anymore and asked you to take good care of her sister for her." Chu Xun said with red eyes.
"Yuwei, Yuwei is back?" Chu Ruilin's eyes welled up with tears. "Has she been doing well these years?"
Chu Xun suppressed his sadness and nodded, "Mom has always been with my sister. It was my mother who protected my sister. Dad, my sister is back, and our family is finally reunited."
Chu Ruilin burst into tears. He walked to his daughter, hugged her and cried loudly, "Xiangxiang, my daughter, Dad finally waited for you to come back. Dad thought he would never see you again in this life..."
"Dad..." Chu Xiang also started crying, "Xiangxiang misses you so much..."
"I'm sorry, Xiangxiang, it's Daddy's fault. Daddy failed to protect you and made you suffer."
Chu Xun clenched his fists tightly, trying hard to suppress his grief.
Li Xiyue couldn't help crying.
Chu Ruilin had been tormented by self-blame and guilt for half his life, but now he can finally free himself from it.
The father and daughter hugged each other and cried bitterly. Chu Ruilin's madness was cured, he became more energetic, and even his back, which had been hunched for half his life, straightened up.
I happily packed up my things and went home with my children.
When I returned home and saw my elderly father, my clothes were wet with tears again.
After everyone calmed down, Li Xiyue took out a pair of bracelets that Chu Ruilin had given her before, and said, "Uncle Chu, I'm returning this to you."
"This is what Axun's mother left for Xiangxiang and Axun's wife." Chu Ruilin took out one and put it on his daughter, and handed the other to his son, "Axun, you put it on Yueyue."
Whether he was sober or confused, he recognized Li Xiyue as his daughter-in-law. It was their blessing that their son could marry such a good daughter-in-law.
Chu Xun took it and put it on Li Xiyue himself.
The whole family laughed happily.
On the 22nd day of the twelfth lunar month, an auspicious day, the Chu family came to propose marriage.
Chu Ruihua, the second uncle of the Chu family, took time out to come and brought all the grandchildren of the Chu family. Cars stopped one after another in front of Li Xiyue's house, and the cars were full of betrothal gifts.
Liao Qingshan and Mr. Zhuang were dressed very smartly, while Chen Qinghe and Zhuang Le were also dressed appropriately and stood aside, their faces full of joy.
Chen Qinghe also said that he wanted to give Li Xiyue a surprise.
Li Xiyue guessed that the mysterious patient's illness was probably cured. A while ago, Chen Qinghe asked her to get some pills, and she calculated that it was time for him to recover.
So Chen Qinghe wanted to take advantage of today to thank her handsomely?
Some small expectations.
Liao Qingshan took the betrothal gift list and marriage certificate handed over by Chu Ruihua with a smile.
One by one, the grandchildren, with their imposing manners, carried down the betrothal gifts.
First, the brothers Chu Zhou and Lu Feng from the eldest wife's house came carrying a box tied with a big red flower, which contained a gift of 9,999 yuan, symbolizing the long-lasting love between husband and wife.
Then, Chu Jiang from the second room and Chu Tao from the third room brought down two boxes containing various cakes and candies that symbolized sweetness and happiness.
Chu Yong and Quan Yicheng from the fourth room brought down double sets of clothes, shoes and jewelry for all four seasons, symbolizing a lifetime together as a couple.
There are also furniture with 108 legs, three-wheeled boxes, televisions, electric fans, etc.
These betrothal gifts were the first of their kind at the time, and the neighbors gathered at the door, talking about it with great relish.
Everyone thought that was the end of it, but unexpectedly there was a heavyweight betrothal gift to be presented as the finale.
A brand new car, also tied with a big red flower, was driven by Chu Xun in front of Li Xiyue.
Li Xiyue was surprised to find that there was a car in the Chu family's betrothal gift.
This car must cost at least 40,000 or 50,000 yuan.
Of course, it’s not a matter of money. Even if you have money, ordinary people may not be able to buy it.
Li Xiyue was a little worried, "Axun, isn't this too ostentatious?"
Nowadays, weddings are not as big as they used to be. Most people consider it a happy occasion just by having a meal with friends and family.
For someone like them, it's considered a grand celebration, right? There won't be any impact, right?
Chu Xun took her into the house and said with a smile, "Don't worry, this car has been reported and approved by the organization. It was purchased in the name of the Pharmaceutical Research Institute, so there will be no problem."
They can't have a grand ceremony now, but he and his grandfather don't want to let Yueyue down, so all the necessary etiquette must be observed.
Moreover, this car was only nominally a betrothal gift from the Chu family, but in reality...
Bought it in the name of the Institute of Pharmaceutical Research?
Li Xiyue seemed to understand something.
