For Ms. Chen, Beijing has long since become a sad place.

After dawn, we set off for Shanghai.

On the high-speed train back, Chen Bailu leaned on my shoulder and suddenly asked me, do you know Hong Xihua

I was stunned. How did she know that she smiled and smiled, but thought about it. She used to be the president of IU, and it is normal for her to know Xiaoxiao's name. But she asked me this question out of the blue, and it made me panic a little. It's not that I'm afraid that she will know about the relationship between me and Xiaoxiao, but I suddenly have a strong sense of guilt in my heart. If this feeling is expressed, I am afraid it will also hurt Chen Bailu's heart. Chen Bailu obviously knew about my past with Xiaoxiao, and she let out a long breath and said, don't think about her anymore.

I was a little embarrassed, and she said again. And what Tianhui is

Women are sensitive, regardless of the small people in the market. Or the president who stands tall in the sky

After we returned to Shanghai, Chen Bailu began to plan the wedding. Sitting in front of her and listening to her say all the details about the wedding, I hesitated.

I hesitated to tell her and ask her to accompany me home to see my parents. But I was afraid that she would know that my family was rural and would not want to go there. But marriage is the most important part of life after all, if you don't let your parents know, or don't tell your parents, it's a bit unfilial.

Chen Bailu said that she got married a few years ago, she looked at the yellow calendar, and said that the twenty-sixth day of the Lunar New Year was a good day, just that day.

It can be seen that she is in a hurry.

The days go by quickly. When we came back, we were busy every day for the wedding, and she said no wedding photos, no ceremony, no everything. She just wanted that day, the two of us invited our respective friends to dinner, told them, and the most important thing was to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau that day to get the marriage certificate.

I asked her if it was too rudimentary.

She looked at me and said. Do you have the money to give me a lavish wedding right now

I was silent, she said beside me, I can do without everything, but I want you to work hard, I want you to be motivated, you don't want to be like those ordinary men, you are the same to your wife before marriage, and after you get married, let time take away your original promise, let time destroy your original promise. I don't want that in a few years, you will be just an ordinary man, doing an ordinary job, without the positive attitude you have now, eating and waiting for death every day, and not having any enthusiasm for life. I want you to work hard every day to change our lives, as you do now.

Listening to her words, my heart swelled and I was excited. To tell the truth, Chen Bailu's current life is the envy of 99% of people in Shanghai and even the whole country, but after such an achievement, she is still working so hard, how dare I give up easily

She could have nothing at the wedding, and how could I not promise her a brilliant future

Time is quietly lost, and in a blink of an eye, it will be the twenty-sixth of the New Year. At five o'clock in the morning, the two of us got up in pairs, she made breakfast, and after a brief meal, it was just after seven o'clock, and the two of us took a shower together, and then she sat in front of the mirror and put on a little lipstick on herself, and I went back to the bedroom and put on a suit. She wore an ordinary coat with a red autumn coat underneath, ordinary trousers underneath, and thin-heeled pumps.

In this way, I went out and walked to the Civil Affairs Bureau, which was only three stops away from my home, and got married

The moment we got the marriage certificate, we both had tears in our eyes. It was all like a dream for me, I didn't expect that I would get married within half a year of graduating from college, let alone marry such a wonderful woman. When I came out of the Civil Affairs Bureau, it was raining lightly in the sky. I carried her on my back in a nearby alley, and she leaned into my ear and said, I love you

We had already informed our friends and contacted the wedding venue two days ago, so there were quite a few people who came to our wedding banquet at noon, but in fact, there were not many of them, and they were all some of my classmates in Shanghai. Because it coincided with the Chinese New Year, many people who were not from Shanghai went home for the New Year and did not come to participate. There are not many people notified by Chen Bailu, only a few female friends she knows. We introduced each other to our friends, and I said that she was my favorite Bai Lu, and she said that this is my husband, Qi Tian

Getting married during the Chinese New Year always feels indescribably funny.

Not long after the wedding began, the personnel lady rushed over, and shouted loudly as soon as she arrived at the scene, scolding me for not being righteous, and not informing her of the marriage earlier, so that she only received the news today, and Santana rushed to the scene with F1 feelings.

I smiled happily at her, she rushed over and hugged Chen Bailu, I don't know what to whisper in Chen Bailu's ear, Chen Bailu smiled like a flower.

That day in Beijing, after I went to Chen Bailu's wedding site, she told me that she had gone home, and I hadn't contacted her these days, and I forgot to notify her during the wedding, probably Chen Bailu notified her to come. I was a little embarrassed to look at her, after all, she knew everything between me and Chen Bailu. But seeing that she is so smart, my hanging heart will be put down.

The atmosphere at the wedding scene was not bad, my friends were all recent graduates, Chen Bailu's friends were elites with social experience, and some were even in the same company, and they were very friendly in conversation. Just as we raised our glasses to celebrate, another dusty figure appeared at the door of the scene.

Chen Bailu and I turned our eyes and saw Concubine Huang standing there in a long dress, dragging a box behind her, as if she had just gotten off the plane.

At that moment, Chen Bailu shed tears of excitement.

She thought that she would never have a family come over for the wedding in her life, but she didn't expect that at the most critical moment, her mother would appear in time. I took Chen Bailu to the front of Concubine Huang, Concubine Huang looked at the two of us and said, "Very good"

Chen Bailu called out excitedly: "Mom"

Concubine Huang smiled, took out a painting from the box behind her and handed it to Chen Bailu, and said, "I met Lao Zhang at the airport just now, and he asked me to hand over this painting to you, saying that I can't come to your wedding, I'm sorry." ”

Chen Bailu's tears rained down, and Concubine Huang looked at me seriously in a blink of an eye, and said, "The young man is in good spirits." ”

I hesitated, and just wanted to call Mom, Concubine Huang passed us, walked to the stage, took the microphone and looked at everyone on the scene. The guests at the scene also knew that the people on the stage were going to speak, so they quieted down and waited for Concubine Huang to speak. I dragged Chen Bailu's hand, stood at the door and looked at Concubine Huang on the stage, breathing a long sigh of relief.

A wedding without parents is like rice without vegetables, although the rice is soft and delicious, it always feels less flavorful.

Now that Concubine Huang is here, this dish is finally ready

I saw Concubine Huang standing on the stage and coughing lightly, and said, "Thank you for coming to the wedding of Bai Lu and Qi Tian, I am Bai Lu's mother, Concubine Huang."

Concubine Huang paused in her tone and continued: "Standing here today, I don't want to say any manuscript nonsense, I just want to be a witness between them. Originally, as the woman's parents, she couldn't appear here today, but for some well-known reasons, the elders who could attend this wedding today were reluctant to come, so the work of this witness was done by me, who has the most right to judge this wedding."

There was a round of applause at the scene, and I turned my head to look at Chen Bailu beside me.

Concubine Huang continued: "Originally, as a mother-in-law, I didn't ask our Qi Tian's son-in-law for a house. I also came here to be this witness, and my mother-in-law was too much of a failure."

The scene laughed.

Huang Fei continued with a laugh: "Just a few hours ago, I was in India. I almost missed the wedding because I couldn't catch the train, but I was able to get to Gandhi Airport and get on the flight back to China because I had someone to help me. When I sat on the plane, I was thinking, how time is so fast, and in the blink of an eye, the little girl who was still laughing in my arms and crying in my arms was about to get married, when she was born, it was only the size of my palm, and now I look at her standing in front of me, a head taller than me, and she is as slender and beautiful as when I was young, not my aunt bragging in front of you young people, there were more people chasing me back then than there are people on the scene today. ”

Laughter again.

Concubine Huang waited for the laughter to stop and continued: "However, I am blind to marry Bai Lu's father To be honest, marrying her father is not the most wrong decision in this life, because the more wrong decision is to give birth to Bai Lu."

When Concubine Huang said this, she said it in a funny tone. The scene laughed for three minutes before stopping, Concubine Huang looked around the scene and turned her eyes to me and Chen Bailu: "I didn't give her a calm, warm childhood, and didn't let her get the fatherly love she deserved, because of my mistakes, her life has been in adversity, if she hadn't worked hard by herself, I'm afraid now"

Speaking of this, Concubine Huang choked up in her tone.

She let out a long breath and continued: "I'm not afraid of everyone's jokes, I'm not a qualified mother. made Bai Lu suffer a lot, and also made her suffer a lot of sins. Today, she's going to get married to a bastard I don't know, and from then on, she's someone else's wife, someone else's wife, and maybe even someone else's mom in the future. ”

With tears in her eyes and a choked voice, she hurried off the stage, walked up to me and asked me: "Qi Tian, now, as your witness, I want to ask you, will you marry the woman in front of you, love her, be loyal to her, whether she is beautiful or ugly, sick or sick, until death." Would you like to?"

I turned my head to look at Chen Bailu, who was crying silently next to me, and said sincerely: "I am willing." ”

Concubine Huang turned her head to Chen Bailu: "Bai Lu, are you willing to marry this man Love him and be loyal to him, whether he is poor or rich, healthy or sick, until he dies." Would you like to?"

Chen Bailu sobbed and said, I do

With tears in her eyes, Concubine Huang stood in front of the two of us, took off the ring on her hand and handed it to me, saying, "This is what your grandmother gave me, and today, I will give it to her." ”

I nodded, turned around and knelt down, and put the ring on Chen Bailu's hand in front of Concubine Huang.

The dogtail ring that I took away from the wedding symbolizes the love between us, and the ring that Concubine Huang handed me today symbolizes the thoughts that have been passed down from generation to generation.

The scene erupted in fierce applause, and Concubine Huang took off a string of hand beads from her body and put it on my wrist for me: "This is what I brought back from a high monk in India, from today on, I hope you can treat Bai Lu sincerely, don't hurt her, don't bully her, love her for a lifetime, never abandon to be a good husband, and be a good father in the future, and become a majestic man for her and her in the future."

I nodded, hesitated, my lips trembled, and I called out the word: "Mom"

Concubine Huang's face was full of tears of excitement, and she agreed: "Hmm"
