What I’m wondering is: Didn’t Xu Suizhu go to college in Haicheng? Didn’t he stay in Haicheng after graduating from college? How did he meet the Lu family?
What she envied was Xu Suizhu's husband's family, the famous Lu family in Kyoto, and she regretted not coming to visit earlier.
It was all my fault that my mother-in-law received an invitation telegram from the Lu family in August and resisted all attempts. She thought it would be too expensive to come and wanted the Lu family to send someone to pick them up. She was so arrogant that she didn't come in the end.
If she hadn't been lobbying hard this time, her mother-in-law's stingy temper might still be the same as in August, putting on airs and refusing to come.
What an old fool!
The Lu family is such a good relative. It’s nothing to spend some travel expenses and send a red envelope! Not to mention the grandson’s birthday, the son’s marriage, such a big event, even someone’s birthday has to come proactively. I have to worry about this after winning over the Lu family.
Can’t you make back some of the expenses?
But when I think that the person I have tried so hard to win over is actually the in-laws of my old classmate, I feel uncomfortable.
Even though he knew that this was not a good thing to hear, he still said it more quickly than he meant.
Xu Suizhu smiled and glanced at Mr. Lu: "Daddy Baozi, you can explain this problem."
Mr. Lu looked back with a smile. Although he was answering Chen Yuanyuan's question, his eyes were always fixed on the beautiful face of the child's mother: "Why did you have a son first and then get married? The child's mother thinks that I am older than her, have an unstable job, and am late.
She refused to agree to marry me. In order to live a happy life with a wife and children as soon as possible, she took the wrong approach when necessary and adopted some small tricks... It took her a year before she was willing to forgive me...
"
Xu Suizhu didn't expect him to say that, and her pretty face turned red: This guy's ability to tell lies is really getting better and better.
But Chen Yuanyuan believed it. She looked at Xu Suizhu and said, "I really envy you."
Xu Suizhu: "..."
Lu Chixiao turned around and winked at the child's mother, almost laughing.
"Brother Xiao!" Li Tao ran over with a stack of photos in his hand, "Here! This belongs to your family."
"When were they taken?" Lu Chixiao looked through them and found that they were all snapshots of several members of his family, with Fuju Island in the background.
"On the day of departure, I took it to be washed as soon as I came back yesterday, and urged the photo studio to work overtime to wash it out for me. You can enjoy it slowly. I'll go have a drink with an acquaintance."
After Li Tao left, Mr. Lu showed the child’s mother photos of the family.
"Hey! The boss is there too? Don't tell me, this guy is quite photogenic." Lu Chixiao flicked his fingers when he saw his brother's photo.
Chen Yuanyuan took a quick look and was immediately attracted by the characters in the photo.
It's him?
That stern man who once glimpsed at the crossroads opposite the school?
Even though it was just a casual encounter, the man's expression when he looked back was deeply imprinted in her heart, and time seemed to freeze at that moment. There is nothing better than love at first sight.
But he was like a flash in the pan, or like a pebble thrown into the lake of her heart, causing ripples and never to be found again.
I didn’t expect it, I didn’t expect it...
It turns out that he is the eldest son of the Lu family who was injured and comatose for six or seven years, and whose wife could not bear to be a widow and remarried within half a year!
At this moment, Chen Yuanyuan felt mixed emotions and regretted marrying too early.
If she is not married yet and he happens to be single, wouldn't it be...
"The banquet is open! The food is served!"
Someone yelled. Lu Chixiao picked up his son and took the mother: "Let's go! Let's eat a few mouthfuls to cushion our stomach. If we toast later, our stomach will feel uncomfortable."
Wedding banquets here in Kyoto are not like fishing villages - most of them are the bride's family members, and the toasts are given to the bride and groom. There are not only the Lu family's family members, but also the Lu family's work and career colleagues.
, partner, in short, I definitely need a few toasts.
Xu Suizhu nodded towards Chen Yuanyuan and let Baozi Daddy take him away.
"That's Ah Tan's little daughter-in-law? She's so good-looking! No wonder the baby she gave birth to is so cute. One of her parents is handsome and the other beautiful. How could the child be a crooked melon and a cracked jujube?"
"No, Ah Tan got his wish this time - his youngest son got married, and his grandson was also embraced. No wonder he gave his favorite bracelet to his youngest daughter-in-law..."
"Are you talking about the emerald jade bracelet?"
"Yes! You didn't come to the first birthday party, did you? Ah Tan treated her like a daughter, which made me envious."
"Are you envious? I heard that Ah Tan bought several houses in Yupu for this daughter-in-law, and planned to wait for her wife to retire there."
"That's not all. I heard that the betrothal gift was five figures! With all kinds of large and small items, it's almost close to six figures!"
"As expected of the Lu family, they are rich and powerful."
"I hope I won't be a white-eyed wolf anymore."
"This daughter-in-law is not ordinary. Unlike the one from the Liu family... this one, it is said that she graduated from college and returned to her hometown to become a high school English teacher. During the summer vacation, she also represented the province and came to Kyoto to attend seminars. She listened to several professors talk about her English teaching ability.
Even if she came to Kyoto to teach in the best key high school, she was unmoved. She still stayed in her hometown to teach, and eventually contracted an island. Not only did she take Mr. Lu over and live there for a while, I just went to talk to a few people.
The old man said hello, and his complexion looked much better than before. As you can see, Ah Tan, her complexion was as tender as when she was young. I asked her what skin care products she had used recently, and her skin was so good. She said it was because of her daughter-in-law...
"
"I've heard about it too. Could it be because of the pleasant climate in Yupo? To be honest, I want to go there for a few days."
"Not only do I want to play, I also want to try Yupu's seafood. By the way, the seafood at the Lu family's banquet this time was said to be caught on the road sent by my in-laws. They are all fresh and cannot be eaten normally.
I can have a taste of it today."
"Really? That's great! Let's sit together later? I don't know much about seafood. Please teach me more. We can go to Yupu to eat together next time."
"Okay."
"..."
Chen Yuanyuan listened to all kinds of information with her ears, and the hearty smiling man in the photo gradually overlapped with the stern face in her memory. It was him, he was him!
I regret once again why I was so impatient and married so early! I am not old enough to graduate from a technical secondary school, so why should I be anxious? I am worried that I will not be familiar with the place in the Northeast, so I want to find a reliable family to rely on, but that is not the case.
If you have to get married, you can just find a godmother!
Regret! Really regret it!
"Yuanyuan, the banquet has started, let's go over and sit down." Jiang Lingzhu still loved this wife very much. Seeing that she didn't come back, he went to look for her.
"Zhuzhu, why didn't you see your cousin?" Chen Yuanyuan looked around for a few times, but she didn't see him coming out after the banquet started. She was attending her brother's wedding. As an elder brother, he would attend it no matter what, right?
"You said that my eldest cousin probably hasn't fully recovered yet, so he stayed in Yupu and didn't come back."
When Chen Yuanyuan heard this, her eyes lit up: Yu Pu? Isn't that her natal family?
