Wu Jing wore a little makeup. Although she was over fifty, she still looked charming. Her hair was dyed dark brown and was styled in an elegant hairstyle. She wore a pearl necklace and gold-encrusted pearl earrings. She wore a long dark blue dress.
Skirt, the temperament can be considered elegant and relaxed.
She looked at Lancer Xu with a smile on her face, seeming to be extremely satisfied with her future son-in-law. Lily proudly showed her mother the wedding ring on the ring finger of her left hand. It was a one-carat star stone shining with colorful illusions.
Light. She seemed very happy, but in fact it did not meet her inner expectations. Maybe this was a decent wedding ring among the ship's medical team, but she had seen luxury jewelry before.
Lancer honestly answered some questions about future marriage plans, but Wu Jing was quite trivial, ranging from household chores to compensation for the impact on Lily's career, and even talked about the surname of her future children. Her daughter must bear the surname Wu.
"This...let me think about it again." Lancer looked very embarrassed, thinking that if he immediately gave in, Aunt Mary would get angry and scold him for being useless.
"It is very popular in Mangxing City for daughters to take their mother's surname. Lily is my only daughter. I think a young and talented person like you shouldn't still have such old feudal ideas."
"Okay, okay." Lancer agreed quickly, thinking that the Xu family always favored sons over daughters, but luckily they didn't require all the children to take their mother's surname.
Then there were various issues regarding property rights and even the division of labor in married life. Lancer felt that it was too trivial. Why did he never feel so suffocated by being buried in trivial matters when he was with Xuanji?
"Lily lost her father when she was three years old. She gave me all hope in life. I naturally hope that she can have a fulfilling life." Wu Jing took a sip of the pink cocktail and said leisurely.
"Aunt, this is natural..." Lancer sighed. The prospective mother-in-law seemed to have sketched out a rather heavy world after marriage: the old cow was pulling the cart, and he was the cow pulling the cart.
In any case, Lily's family is considered to be an upper-middle-class family. Lily's father's early death can actually make him feel more relaxed. He can't imagine what kind of pressure it would be if his white father-in-law was present and made various demands and obligations on him. I'm afraid he has already
He rushes out of this perfect world full of flowers without hesitation.
Their position was close to the corridor. Guests at other tables walked in front of them. From the corner of their eyes, they caught sight of this table. Lancer, who was wearing a straight officer's uniform, and Wu Lili, who was wearing a light pink feather dress, were obviously a very attractive young couple.
Couples and passers-by all looked at her with envy.
Lancer also felt the envy of others, but he asked himself: Lancer, do you think the goal of life is to maintain a decent family in Star City?
The stars in the sky are so bright. He has already experienced the infinity of the universe. The secular world is too narrow and more restrictive than the uniform on his body.
"Jennifer, why is it you?" Suddenly a dark-skinned man came over and said, "Long time no see! We haven't seen each other for about twelve years!"
Wu Jing was taken aback. After looking at the other person carefully, her face blushed slightly and then returned to a calm pale color.
"I don't know you. You got the wrong person." Wu Jing said calmly, "I'm sorry, please go away, please?"
"Jennifer, you are still so beautiful, hehe, it seems that you are also very good now." This man with broad shoulders but short and thick legs had a red face, and did not regard the other party's indifference as an offense to himself, but
He continued talking happily, completely ignoring the surprised expression of a slender blonde in a red dress next to him, and continued talking to himself: "I first bought stocks in a mining company and made a small fortune, and later participated in
I have started working on the mining of new interstellar mines, and now I am financially free. Haha, no one thought that I, Black Sam, would still be here today..."
"My mother already said she doesn't know you, so you should leave immediately." Wu Lili blushed and stood up.
"Ah! Isn't this Lily?" the other party said in surprise, "Have you grown so big? You were only that tall before. Do you remember the little skirt I bought you? And your eye-patch computer, aren't they all Uncle Sam?
Did I buy it for you? In the past, you lived on Water Cube Street, and I often came to spend the night. You still called me Uncle Sam. It seems that you have climbed up to a high branch and no longer recognize the old person. I am richer than this major.
If you have more, come on, I will pay your bill today..."
"I said I don't know you!" Wu Jing's tone was a little angry, "You got drunk and got the wrong person! Lily, let's go quickly!"
After saying that, Wu Jing lowered her head and quickly took her daughter's wrist. Regardless of the fact that the dish was only halfway served and the main dish was not finished, she pulled her and left in a hurry.
"Uh..." Lancer Xu sat blankly, still wondering what the relationship was, when his fiancée took him away in an instant and left like the wind.
The hairy-footed son-in-law's first meeting with his mother-in-law ended hastily. Things in the world are more fickle than the waves of the Ocean of Thetis.
"Lily, tell me, what on earth is going on?!"
After sending the embarrassed mother-in-law back home, the two of them walked on the sidewalk filled with flashing advertisements. Lancer grabbed Wu Lili, who was walking silently.
"It's just the wrong person, my mother said." Wu Lili's little face looked so pale under the colorful and flashing light that would make people dizzy.
"My profession is as a consultant and an expert in analyzing intelligence." Lancer said seriously, "If you still regard me as your future husband, please tell me the truth."
Lily pursed her lips and remained silent.
"If you don't tell me, I will know. There is always a way for me to know." Lancer stood in the wind, his hair blown up, wearing a uniform, looking so serious.
"I lost my father when I was three years old. I said that he was killed on the front line in the Yanunitu District. Maybe it was not true..." Wu Lili said softly, as if immersed in the painful memories of the past, "He was not on the death list.
He is not on the missing list. Even the army doesn’t know where my father has gone. It’s so confusing... Let’s put it this way, we, mother and daughter, were abandoned. My parents didn’t officially register their marriage, they just lived together. We can’t receive pensions.
, My mother tried hard for a long time, but it didn’t work. As a woman, it was very difficult for her to support me just by working as a hotel receptionist and part-time shopping guide. She had many boyfriends..."
Lancer swallowed, and his Adam's apple trembled.
During the war, the morals of Mangxing City were lax, and too many women lived this way, but he did not expect that the mother of his marriage partner was also like this.
"She wants me to live a better life, and has signed me up for various talent or cram school classes, hoping that my daughter will become a success. She just hopes that I won't be like her again in the future." Wu Lili's voice trembled, "Are you?
You will understand the hardships at the bottom. Your grandfather is a lieutenant colonel of the General Staff, and your father is a logistics captain. He can easily join the army and eat royal food. I worked very hard to graduate from the Military Medical University and went on a ship internship before I met you..."
