A few days later, Cheng Huanran and Kang An received their certificates!
It happened that the sun was shining brightly that day and the temperature had risen a bit. Everyone was in a happier mood than the warm sunshine in winter. They gathered around the newlyweds to say blessings, give gifts, and take photos together.
Xue Ling and Cheng Tianyuan gave Kang An a pair of gold bracelets and a gold concentric lock.
"It's a bit tacky." Xue Ling laughed and explained: "But in traditional weddings, golden gold is preferred, so it makes sense!"
Kang An liked it very much and said with a smile: "Thank you, parents. I have always liked gold. A common person likes common things."
"I like it too!" Cheng Huanran touched the huge and heavy concentric lock and said, "This thing is so precious! It has a good meaning! Anyone who sees it will like it!"
Xue Xin hummed: "I like it too! Why didn't you do it when I got married? Dad, Mom, are you too partial?"
Everyone laughed.
Xue Ling had no choice but to explain truthfully: "This is an old tradition from your father's side. The father-in-law and mother-in-law prepare golden jewelry for the eldest daughter-in-law, which means that the family is prosperous and the family is full of children and grandchildren. I specially hired someone to make this concentric lock and carved it on top.
Some cute little Fuwa, I hope your brother and sister-in-law will have many children and good fortune, and be of the same mind."
"That's it!" Cheng Huanchong joked: "You are the youngest daughter, not the eldest daughter-in-law, so naturally you don't have a role! You are not the eldest daughter-in-law in Brother Tietou's family, so it won't be your turn no matter what!"
Xue Xin: "..."
Chen Xinzhi on the side smiled fondly: "It doesn't matter, as long as you like it, I will order a few for you. It's up to you to decide what pattern you want."
Xue Xin quickly regained her smile and said proudly: "Who cares about my daughter-in-law? Anyway, as long as I like it, my husband will give it to me."
"It's not a gift from my parents-in-law!" Cheng Huanchong joked again: "Can the meaning be the same?"
"Don't worry about me!" Xue Xin snorted: "At least I have someone to give it to, but you don't even have anyone to give it to you! Hahaha!"
Lin Qingzhi smiled slightly and said warmly: "I'll send it off."
Cheng Huanchong smiled even more proudly, and said happily: "I don't like vulgar things, and I have no interest. If Xiaoxin likes it, I can give it to her instead."
Lin Qingzhi nodded.
"No need!" Xue Xin shook her head: "It's okay to do it. I have my husband to give it to me! I don't engage in art, and I don't like that false noble and hypocritical spirit. We are all common people born from mortal bodies, so we will naturally love common things."
Cheng Huanchong: "..."
They have always been quarrelsome since they were little, and Xue Ling still emphasizes from time to time that they always liked to fight when they were in her belly, so everyone has long been accustomed to the two of them bickering and quarreling when they get together, and no one tries to stop them.
Not even Lin Qingzhi and Chen Xinzhi were chatting quietly, with gentle and decent smiles on their faces.
Wang Xiaoxiao and Xue Yang's family were the last to arrive, each holding a baby and running over in a hurry.
"Sorry! We're late!"
"We started a little late, and we were stuck in traffic for a while! Sorry, sorry!"
Cheng Huanran raised his voice: "No need to apologize! I'll fine you thirty drinks later!"
Everyone laughed!
Xue Ling and Cheng Tianyuan stepped forward to help pick up the child.
Wang Xiaoxiao quickly took out the gift from the bag and stuffed it into Kang An's arms.
"I wish you a hundred years of unity and eternal love!"
Xue Yang opened his mouth and said cheerfully: "Let's grow old together! We will always be of the same mind! Many children, more blessings!"
Cheng Huanran caught a glimpse of the dark circles under his eyes and couldn't bear to ask in front of everyone, so he could only nod and thank him.
Wang Xiaoxiao and Kang An chatted about pregnancy reactions. A mother and an expectant mother didn't have to worry about running out of topics, and they chatted very enthusiastically.
Xue Yang's face was not very good, and the statue standing aside seemed to be yawning.
Lin Qingzhi's powers of observation were different from ordinary people, and he could tell at a glance that something was wrong with Xue Yang's demeanor.
Cheng Huanchong thought for a while and explained: "It's probably because they are too busy at the end of the year. Their clothing company is busiest at the end of the year. They have to work overtime and stay up late, and they can't stop until New Year's Eve. The end of the year is the best and busiest time for clothing companies.
"
Lin Qingzhi's eyes moved slightly and reminded: "He seems to be... forcing a smile. Maybe he encountered something bad."
"Isn't it?" Cheng Huanchong muttered: "What can he have to worry about? He can move out and live freely, and his sister-in-law and children are also fine. Could it be something related to work?"
Lin Qingzhi raised his handsome brows and whispered: "Most likely."
Cheng Huanchong asked curiously: "How are the garment processing factories in the suburbs doing?"
"I heard that the performance in the second half of the year is not bad." Lin Qingzhi explained: "A few days ago, I heard Acan say that several foreign companies have postponed their settlement time, and the last quarter of this year has not yet been settled."
Cheng Huanchong said "Oh?" and asked: "You mean the money hasn't been settled in the last quarter? The first quarter of next year will be distributed in March next year?"
Lin Qingzhi answered: "Usually the first quarter is liquidated at the beginning of the fourth month, and the last quarter of last year is liquidated in January. There have been continuous snowstorms this year, and many places have stopped work. The procedures are several steps slower. Plus they
The work efficiency has always been very low, so the final quarter may not be settled until February."
Cheng Huanchong couldn't help but guess: "It's probably because after I moved out, the expenses became too high for a while."
"No." Lin Qingzhi reminded with a smile: "Families with high and stable incomes will not be frightened by expenses unless they spend money lavishly."
Cheng Huanchong was suspicious and made random guesses: "Some people say that the only things that can trouble a man are women and money. Could it be that my second brother is entangled with other women?"
Lin Qingzhi was amused for a moment and gave him a doting look.
"How should I say good things to you? Do you have too much confidence in your second brother? Or do you have too little confidence in him?"
Forehead?
Cheng Huanchong was amused by him and explained: "I am quite confident in his appearance and personal charm."
"Then you don't have confidence in his self-control and family responsibility?" Lin Qingzhi asked funnyly.
Cheng Huanchong shook his head: "No! Our family members are not the kind of people who are easily tempted. The sense of family responsibility in our hearts is heavier than Mount Tai, and not just anyone can shake it."
Parents teach them by example what responsibility is and what family responsibility is.
They have grown up in such a beautiful and warm family atmosphere, and they have been influenced and influenced by it. It is impossible for them to do such a stupid thing as betraying their family and their lover!
Lin Qingzhi smiled slightly and reminded: "Then you guessed wrong. Your second brother probably encountered a difficult problem, and it is difficult to solve."
Cheng Huanchong finally corrected his attitude seriously and nodded lightly.
"Most likely. I'll ask him when there are less people around."
Lin Qingzhi said warmly: "You have been abroad for the past two years. You don't have much time to go home, so you may more or less ignore your relatives around you. Take advantage of this trip to take care of everyone."
"There's nothing I can do." Cheng Huanchong glanced at him from the corner of his eyes and whispered: "Whoever lets someone take my heart away... I will naturally share less with others."
