When he heard the news, Cheng Peng was eating breakfast, so he spit out the soy milk for at least one meter in one gulp, and choked a lot of it out of his nose.
But he didn't care about it at all, he just casually picked up the towel that the et electronic housekeeper quickly handed over and wiped his face, then hurriedly asked Wang Hu on the virtual screen: "Are you and Lin Lian getting married?
And the time is this Sunday?!" [bsp; "Yeah..." Wang Hu sighed, "We originally planned to get married at a government-sponsored mass wedding on Valentine's Day, February 14th - it is said that there will be more weddings by then.
There will be large-scale theatrical performances and so on, and it seems that there will be retired leaders and famous scholars to host... This is not only very lively, but also a lot of time. Who knows when I get home, my parents will look through the almanac
, he suddenly became furious and said, 'You kid, you don't even look at the calendar for such a big event! It's forbidden to get married on the twenty-sixth day of the twelfth lunar month!'..."
Cheng Peng nodded to express his understanding.
Although for young people like them, the lunar calendar has basically lost its meaning. Only people like Cheng Peng who study history will need to use it - and that is also used when converting time - but for the elderly
For people, the lunar calendar is still very important, especially the good and bad fortunes corresponding to each day, which they attach great importance to.
It’s just ordinary trivial matters, there’s no need to worry about things like building a house or installing beams, but a major life event like marriage is nothing like child’s play! It’s normal for young people like Wang Hu to have fun and plan to attend a group wedding.
But the old people pay more attention to the issue of auspiciousness... Well, this is normal.
Wang Hu was scolded, and his fiancée Lin Lian couldn't find any favors at home.
Although Lin Lian's parents had approved the marriage, they believed that "it is unlucky to get married in the twelfth lunar month" and insisted on moving the wedding forward or postponing it. In short, they had to choose an auspicious day regardless of the lunar calendar.
So the parents of the two families got rid of the young man and woman who they thought were rough and unreliable - Wang Hu was twenty-two and Lin Lian was twenty-one, indeed still very young - and began to discuss intensively.
I don’t know what these four elders, who together are over 200 years old, are thinking. After much discussion, the final result is to set the wedding date on January 18th - this Sunday.
.
"It's the eighteenth day of January in the Gregorian calendar, which is auspicious! It's the twenty-eighth day of the winter month in the lunar calendar, it's auspicious! And it's also the right day to get married. Arrange it according to the heavenly stems and the earthly branches, and compare your horoscopes..." Wang Hu imitated his father's old-fashioned tone and said,
"...Anyway, you see, there is no better day than this!"
Cheng Peng kept nodding, and finally asked: "Um... when was this matter finalized?"
"Last night."
"Very good, very powerful." Cheng Peng sighed and looked at the electronic calendar in the room.
The time on the calendar is clearly January 16th, 7:45 a.m. and 31 seconds.
"I only have one last question." Cheng Peng held back his laughter and asked, "There are still forty hours, fourteen minutes and twenty-nine seconds until your big day. I believe you still have a lot to prepare. Talk to your friends on the phone.
Is it really okay to waste time by blabbering?"
Wang Hu was stunned.
A few seconds later, he screamed: "Tell my friend!" and hurriedly jumped up and rushed out of the room, even forgetting to hang up the phone.
Cheng Peng disconnected the TV phone, thought for a while, smiled, and shook his head.
"As expected, he is young and frizzy..."
"...What's wrong with being young? Are you discriminating against people who get married early?" Xu Tu looked at Cheng Peng with squinting eyes and snorted disdainfully from his nose, "You will have to change jobs in four months.
What qualifications does a great magician's spinster have to laugh at others?"
Cheng Peng was speechless by this question. He couldn't laugh or cry for a long time before he defended in a low voice: "I'm not looking for a partner..."
"Bah! Are you looking for someone? How to find someone? I haven't seen any girl you are particularly close to!" Xu Tu did not give Cheng Peng any face, and exposed his lie rudely, "Look
Look at Wang Hu! Ever since he established a relationship with Lin Lian, they have been almost inseparable. He goes wherever Lin Lian goes. If Lin Lian wants to see Japanese monsters, he will follow Inuyasha; if Lin Lian wants to see Superman and Spider-Man,
He followed him to American Comics; if Lin Lian wanted to summon a beast, he would accompany him to the world of Final Fantasy to kill everyone and grab the summoning magic stone... Pengzai! You have to be careful when picking up girls! It takes time!
A man is chasing a woman across a mountain. If you don't show the determination to fight a protracted war and put in the hard work, just expecting the girl to take your ring and put it on is just a daydream!"
Cheng Peng wanted to quote his historical knowledge to refute a few words, but looking at Xu Zi who was smiling and watching the fun next to Xu Tu, and his sister-in-law Chang Xi who was busy in the kitchen, he felt that his refutation would be very unconvincing and completely just.
It will bring shame on oneself.
No matter how powerful the theoretical group is, they are still vulnerable to the practical group...
However, half an hour later, Cheng Peng's psychology was balanced again.
The so-called gap can only be seen through comparison.
Compared with Xu Tu, a former romantic talent, Cheng Peng is naturally a scumbag with only a combat power of five. But no matter what, with a combat power of only five, he still has fighting power. Compared with some pure scum whose combat power is zero,
But it's much better.
"What did you say?!" Li Wei jumped up and almost knocked down the computer, "Wang Hu is getting married?!"
"Yes, the day after tomorrow. He is very busy, so he asked me to tell his friends." Cheng Peng replied calmly.
"Are you mistaken? I remember he is only twenty-two years old! Doesn't our Chinese law stipulate that thirty-five years old is considered an adult? Minors can also get married?!" Levi yelled rudely, "This
Unscientific!”
"I won't complain about which country's law is the age of 35, but Wang Hu is indeed getting married." Cheng Peng said, "And I remember that our country abolished the recommendation to delay marriage and childbearing last year.
, the family planning office has also been renamed the eugenics and postnatal care office... He is already twenty-two after all, so he can definitely get married."
"How can this be allowed!" Levi walked around the room irritably like a wounded bear, "He must be punished by God! God must be punished! As a senior member of the Go to Death Group, my blood is burning!
As the elite of the fff group, I am already thirsty and thirsty, waiting to drink the hot blood..."
"Don't you have a girlfriend?" Cheng Peng asked curiously, "I remember when you were living in Europe with Wen De, you picked up European girls."
After asking this question, Levi's body suddenly stiffened, as if he had turned into a fossil.
After half a minute, he moved to the corner step by step with difficulty, squatted on the ground, found a branch from nowhere, and began to draw circles.
(Who are you cursing...)
Although he couldn't hear clearly what Li Wei was saying as if he was holding a dead mouse because he didn't have the extraordinary hearing in the game, Cheng Peng was not the kind of person who knew nothing about otaku knowledge.
Naturally, it was obvious that Li Wei was cursing. He wanted to go up and ask what happened, but he was afraid of irritating Li Wei - what if the big man cried on the spot? No...it would be fine if he cried.
What should I do if my nose is smeared on Cheng Peng?
Based on Cheng Peng's understanding of Li Wei, it is very possible - no, it can be said to be a certain thing!
So he simply apologized in a low voice, and then hurriedly went out and left, leaving only Li Wei, who was huddled in the corner like an aggrieved daughter-in-law and slowly felt sorry for herself.
"...Oh? Wang Hu is getting married? This is good news! Let's prepare some flower baskets to send."
When Cheng Peng arrived, Wen De first kissed goodbye to a blond, green-eyed beauty whom Cheng Peng swore he never knew. Then he leisurely returned to the dining table without even wearing a shirt and invited Cheng Peng to sit down for dinner.
.
"American girls are so enthusiastic. I'm a little confused here, so please bear with me."
Cheng Peng smiled bitterly and sat down.
"There's no need to eat. In fact, I just had breakfast not long ago." He introduced Wang Hu's affairs straight to the point, and then asked about Li Wei's situation in a roundabout way.
"Levi...he had picked up a few girls when he was in Europe, but he was wavering left and right. He wanted all of them and didn't want to let go of any of them. He also hid the truth from each other...the last few girls knew about it.
After finding out the truth, they teamed up to beat him up and then blew it off with him." Wen De said nonchalantly, "It's nothing, he is only twenty-eight years old, and men don't mature until they are thirty, and they are charming.
shoot."
Cheng Peng recalled Levi's appearance after being stimulated, and was sure that it was not "nothing". Then he compared Wen De's appearance and tried to recall what he had seen around him since he met him.
After confirming that I couldn't count the number of women with my own memory, I couldn't help but sigh deeply.
Reality is indeed stranger than games...
