Chapter 271 Wedding Ceremony
Chapter 271 Wedding Ceremony
Huainan was telling the truth. His mother was good-looking and came from a good family. She always looked down on some people, which gave him a headache. But she was his own mother, so he couldn't blame her. Besides, a large part of this was due to his father's indulgence. His father felt that he was too busy with work and was making his mother suffer, so he tried his best to satisfy her needs in life, which led to his mother's domineering and controlling nature. So, in the past two years, his father has realized this problem and has reduced his work to spend more time with his mother, and has also helped her change many bad habits.
"You can decide for yourselves. As long as Yiyi is doing well, we have no objections, but the proper etiquette must be observed..."
"Old Xiao, you just agreed to that?!"
“Juanzi, the children are growing up. Are you going to keep them at home forever? Yiyi is not young anymore. Let go. Huainan’s parents have already let go. Let’s do what’s best for Yiyi. Wouldn’t it be better to let the two children worry about their own marriage?”
“Mom, we will also follow the proper etiquette, so don’t worry. As for the issues you’re worried about, I only have parents because I married an orphan. You went through the same thing, didn’t you? I’m not worried about it, so why are you worried?”
"Of course you're not worried. Mom is just afraid you'll scare your future mother-in-law." She knows her own daughter's temper all too well—just like her own. What if Huainan can't stand her, or Huainan's parents can't get along with her, and she gets hurt after a divorce?
"How could someone as good as me do that? Last time I went to Huainan's house, I got along very well with his parents, right, Huainan!"
"Yes! My parents really like Yiyi and hope she can marry me soon." Huainan wasn't lying. His parents had been urging them to get married every day. They had called him over last night to settle his marriage while his grandfather was celebrating his birthday. His grandfather was still worried about Huainan's marriage.
Finally, Yi Yi's parents agreed to let Huai Nan marry Yi Yi, and Huai Nan and Yi Yi were very happy.
When Huainan was seen off at the door, he was very happy, feeling that the trip hadn't been in vain.
"Yiyi, how about I ask a friend from abroad to design your wedding dress? His designs have won awards internationally."
"Okay, I'll give my measurements to your friend then. But let me make this clear beforehand: make sure the wedding dress is beautifully designed, or I won't marry you."
"What nonsense are you talking about? If you don't marry me, who else are you planning to marry? Focus on your work and don't think about anything else. Think more about where we'll have our wedding and who we'll invite."
“Huainan, actually I wanted to have a destination wedding, but your parents and my parents would definitely object, so I'll mostly respect their opinions. Otherwise, if they have objections and they don't get along after the wedding, we'll be the ones who suffer.”
"Yiyi, you are always so understanding. I know my mom looked down on you last time because you're not tall and don't have a job, but knowing your personality, you didn't confront her directly, and you didn't say anything bad about my parents in front of your parents either. I'm really grateful to you!"
“Your dad is a good person, but your mom… I can tell that your mom is actually quite easy to deal with. She’s straightforward and speaks her mind without any guile. People like that are not scary. What’s most scary are those who plot behind people’s backs and have wicked intentions.”
"I'm relieved that you think that way."
Finally, Yiyi dropped Huainan off at his car, and the two parted reluctantly. When Yiyi got home, her mother teased her about it.
However, after meeting Huainan once, Yiyi's parents had a very good impression of him. The boyfriend Yiyi had dated before was young, impetuous, and never spoke the truth. Marrying a man like Huainan would be better than marrying a man like that.
In the days that followed, both families began preparing for the wedding.
Xie Huixin was particularly proud this time; her son's second marriage had resulted in him marrying a daughter from the Xiao family, making her feel very prestigious in the compound. When Yun Huan heard the news, she immediately called Yun Le, but Yun Le replied indifferently that she no longer cared, and who Huai Nan married was none of her business.
Hearing her reply, Yun Huan angrily cursed her sister, saying she was truly useless. Then she ignored her and went to curry favor with Gao Yao, preparing to deal with Yun Shu.
……
Mingkun returned from a week-long business trip. After washing up at home, he finally felt at ease sitting on the sofa. This was the longest business trip he had ever taken since he and Yunshu had reunited.
"Beibei, have you missed Daddy?" He squatted down in front of his son, feeling guilty for not playing with him these past few days.
"Yes," Beibei said in her childish voice, a rare smile appearing on her face when she saw her father.
Upon hearing his son's answer, Mingkun happily picked him up and put him on his shoulders.
When Yun Shu came home from get off work, she saw the father and son playing together and felt a warm feeling.
"You're back!" I greeted her and then went to change into a clean set of pajamas.
The servants had already cooked the meal and set it on the table for the family to eat together.
"Yunshu, we can move there next month. The renovations are finished, and we can let it air out for a while."
"Really? Then I'll really miss this place. I put a lot of effort into decorating it." Yun Shu seemed a little reluctant to move.
“It’s okay, we won’t sell this house. When Beibei grows up and goes to school, he can live here. It’s close to No. 1 High School, so he won’t have to live on campus.”
"That'll do." The key is that they've moved to the villa, which is almost a half-hour drive away. Yun Shu naturally prefers something closer, and she doesn't mind that this place is small; it's actually enough for the whole family. The two housekeepers live next door, which is better for their privacy. But since Ming Kun wants to move, they'll go along with it. The villa is bigger, with a yard where they can grow flowers and plants, a rooftop swimming pool, and a large room for the father and son to exercise. The conditions there are definitely better than here, which is how Ming Kun shows his love for them.
"By the way, let's treat everyone to dinner this Saturday, and then we'll go get our wedding photos taken again, as if we're having a make-up wedding."
"A wedding ceremony? You're not going to have a huge one again, are you?"
With their child already so grown up, Yun Shu isn't as keen on a wedding anymore.
"We don't need a big wedding ceremony. Just invite some close friends to come and celebrate. Otherwise, many people won't know that I'm married with a wife and son. They keep trying to play matchmaker and introduce me to people... Of course, I've refused them all. But it's always troublesome to do this all the time, so I wanted to have a wedding ceremony with you. We were going to have it a while ago, but then the Gu family had an accident, and I had to go on a business trip. I'm sorry to have troubled my wife and son, and to have you two not been able to be with me for so long."
"Alright, you just wanted to tell people you're married, right? This is probably a good thing, so my husband won't turn bad now that he has money."
"Hehe... Your husband is no ordinary man. He never goes to shady places. He's turned down a lot of dinner parties now, for the sake of my wife and son, and he doesn't want to join in the fun. Besides, I wouldn't feel at ease leaving my wife, who's as beautiful as an angel, at home. The new house is full of stories about rich women keeping gigolos."
