Chapter 20 The Betrothal
I love the city and the people in this city. There's no denying that I'm a person with a strong sense of locality. Every time I go to an unfamiliar city, I always feel at a loss. So, after graduating from university, I never thought about pursuing a career in a big city. I quietly returned to my third-tier town, looking forward to a plain and simple life. Perhaps my temperament stems from the spirit of this small city, which itself seems to be lazy and leisurely, so she has educated the people in this city in this way.
Yoo Yuxi's grandfather is a typical Y City person. For life, he does not have too high material pursuits. Drinking tea for 50 yuan a pound and smoking a pack of cigarettes for 10 yuan is also comfortable.
Liu Yuxi's parents were the ones who went abroad to pan for gold in the 80s of the last century. Willing to endure hardships and use their brains made them quickly gain a foothold abroad. However, like the gold diggers, after the material foundation was satisfied, the couple's relationship broke down and they each formed a family again. The new family can't give Liu Yuxi the warmth she wants. When she was ten years old, she chose to take a plane back to China to live with her grandfather. Since that day, it has been sixteen years since I met Liu Yuxi!
Dinner is a common family feast. However, compared to usual, Old Man Liu and Master Liu didn't drink much. Old man Liu is very open-minded, saying that the woman is not left, and she has to marry out after all, although the wood is very average in all aspects, but looking at the growth, the character is not said. Yuxi's parents also contacted him, and they have no opinion, as long as Yuxi likes it!
The master also nodded: "The two children are good, and we don't ask how long they have been dating by themselves." They just have to live a good life. In the future, two families will merge into one, and it will be lively!"
The two old men have been neighbors for life, and they know each other too well. There were not too many worries when many words came out, and the master said, "I checked the yellow calendar today." As he spoke, he took out a booklet from his pocket and came out of the yellow calendar, "The twelfth day of April in the solar calendar is a good day, and now there is plenty of time to prepare, I don't think it is okay to ask the two children to get married?"
I think it depends on what the two children think. Old man Liu put down the chopsticks in his hand and looked at me and Liu Yuxi: "Your boss is not small, tell me if you have any thoughts about marriage." ”
Liu Yuxi looks at me, I look at her. Things are moving faster than we expected. But the last thing life lacks is the things you don't expect.
"Wood, do you still want Yuxi to speak first?" the master frowned, "Men have to have their own responsibilities, tell me what you think." ”
Master, I understand, usually very talkative, but when I lose my temper, I can't screw it out. At this time, he really had a bit of a general of our army.
Looking at Liu Yuxi, I was indeed a little caught off guard by this sudden wedding date. But thinking that this girl is the love of my life that I really want to take care of, I immediately let go of the burden in my heart.
"Yuxi and I are not prepared for this wedding date," I looked at Yoo Yuxi and held her hand under the table, "but I really want to be with Yuxi, so I don't care what day it is." I'm afraid that time is in a hurry, and I can't give Yuxi a decent wedding. ”
I said it very sincerely, and I felt that Liu Yuxi's hand was also holding me tightly. Ten fingers interlocked, give me support!
"Xiaoxi, what do you think?" Old Man Liu turned his gaze to Yuxi again.
"I'll listen to you about this. Liu Yuxi's face flew two red clouds.
Yoo Yuxi has always been a very assertive girl. When she came back from the United States, she filled in the college entrance examination and found a job on her own. Her words now show that she has no problem with our marriage.
Old Man Liu took the little yellow calendar from his master's hand and flipped through it carefully, "I think it is set on the 20th day of May in the solar calendar, which is also suitable for marriage, and it is also in line with the current young people's mouthwash." On Friday, relatives and friends at home also had time to come. The two children will also have plenty of time to prepare, you see, Old Shen?"
"Okay!" Master couldn't hide the smile on his face, "When the time comes, I'll call those two boys back together, and everyone will be lively together!"
The day was set. The thought of starting my own family soon made me feel a little more responsibility and a little more apprehension.
Now that the days have been set, Mr. Liu began to arrange preparations for us. After all, for Chinese families, marriage is a big event, and the preparations are complicated and necessary. It is necessary to be decent and to account for the cost.
Old man Liu is really very open-minded, according to the old man's words, Liu Yuxi can live in our Shen family from today. Before getting married, many tedious things need to be discussed with me, and it is convenient to live together. But Liu Yuxi still lives with his grandfather. Grandpa has raised her for so many years, and she is about to get married, although it is next door, she is still afraid that her grandfather will have a sense of loss, and she is afraid of her grandfather's feelings. This girl, it's so nice!
In this life, the master delayed his marriage with his three apprentices, so he was particularly eager for the three of us to get married as soon as possible. The moment my wedding date with Liu Yuxi was finalized, the master smiled so heartily. At that moment, I suddenly realized that I really owed my master a lot.
In China, marriage is really not just a matter of two people, it is the concern of everyone in two families!
Rarely, Liu Yuxi also poured himself a glass of wine. There was no toast, just gently holding the cup and toasting each of the two old men. Then he filled his wine and raised his glass at me: "You are not allowed to go out at night in the future!"
"Why!" I tried to argue, but gave up, and whispered, "No." ”
"You don't even know how worried I am. ”
The soft light hit Liu Yuxi's beautiful face, which made people feel pity. Although he only wore an ordinary white down jacket, he still couldn't hide the beauty of the beauty.
"No!" I said in a heavy tone, and I insisted.
At the end of dinner, when Liu Yuxi sent us out, she pulled the corner of my clothes: "Are you a little scared?"
"I'm afraid I won't be able to give you what I want. I shook Liu Yuxi's hand, "I'm afraid of disappointing you for being good to me." ”
"Don't think too much about it, I just want to be with you plainly. Liu Yuxi gently wrapped his arms around my waist, "I didn't expect that we would set the marriage like this." You haven't proposed to me yet, but I don't care. Can you promise me to be kind to me in the future?"
I was about to make a statement, but Liu Yuxi covered my mouth with his hand: "Who knows what will happen in the future." I'm not asking for your promise, I'm just telling you that from now on I'm giving myself to you. ”
Liu Yuxi gently pressed her head against my chest, but her hands were tightly interlocked with mine.
Kissing Yoo Yuxi's forehead, I didn't say much. I just want to give my woman a shoulder to lean on.
At night, Lu Bingtao's phone call came first. It's a good dish to let the pig arch, but considering that you are an acceptable pig, I will forgive you first. However, forgiveness is forgiveness, you have to be responsible for finding me a sister to be my girlfriend. The women in the national sanda training team are too terrifying. I said that you kid still have the energy to think about women, it seems that the training of the national team is not very hard! Lu Bingtao sighed, if it weren't for a female team doctor, he would have quit the national team a long time ago! Not to mention, the next wave of training arranged by the coach of the dog day is about to start, or bless you, you must come back on the wedding day!
I looked at the time, and it was half past ten in the evening. Thinking that Lu Bingtao has the next wave of training, I can't help but smack my tongue, this kind of training volume is fierce enough!
Lao Gen sent me a message: There are still two boxes of Durex in the second compartment of the drawer in the room, you're welcome!
I replied: Dogs don't eat!
Lao Gen: Lao Bu asked you to talk, do you have a meeting?
Me: Yes, anytime!
Lao Gen: Then you have to save bullets!
Me: Fuck off!
Late at night, lying quietly in bed, thinking of today's everything, there is only one word left: beauty!
