Chapter 112: Prelude to the Wedding
Li Hui chose Xiuhe's wedding dress, she felt that the golden dragon and phoenix gown was too exaggerated.
"Will this dress be ready in the middle of January?" Yan Xin asked.
"Yes." Aishan nodded.
Can you do it? This is the job that the boss personally wants.
"Grandma, you can make a dress too."
Xu Jiaren took out the designed picture and put it in Yan Xin's hand: "Grandma must look very good in this dress." β
Yan Xin picked up the design in his hand, and his eyes lit up and showed love.
The cheongsam on this is too pretty, isn't it?
"The dress is very good...... But...... I'm not going to steal the limelight from the bride, am I? Yan Xin was afraid that she was dressed too well, which might make Li Hui misunderstand.
Li Hui glanced at the drawings and immediately said, "Auntie, I think this cheongsam is good-looking, if you like it, you can order it." I want you to dress up nicely on my wedding day. β
"That's not like words......" Yan Xin smiled and excused himself.
"Why don't you say that? I was able to find such a good husband as Shaoyuan, all thanks to you. If it weren't for you raising such a wonderful son, I wouldn't have been so honored. Li Hui said sincerely.
Xu Shaoyuan also persuaded: "Mom, you see that Huihui has said it, you made this dress." β
"Okayβthen I'll order it!"
Yan Xin liked the style on the picture very much, and gritted her teeth and agreed.
Xu Jiaren looked at her grandmother, who had not spoken, and saw that her expression was a little gloomy, and immediately guessed that her grandmother thought that she was ignored by everyone.
In fact, grandma is a very low self-esteem and sensitive person, and she needs the attention of others very much.
It's a pity that life is unsatisfactory, she can't help but be willful, she has to put away these emotions, leaving only strong and kind.
It's just that these emotions will always inadvertently run out and make trouble.
"Grandma. This garment is for you. Xu Jiaren took out the design with her little hand.
Aunt Zhao was stunned, and waved her hand without even looking at the picture: "You can do it, leave me alone." I'll just get dressed cleanly. β
"Old sister, this child is thinking about you, so don't push it off. Huihui also wants you to look good! Right? Yan Xin gave Li Hui a look.
"Mom, you can do it too. I, who is a daughter, also want you to watch me get married......" Li Hui begged with a little grievance.
Last time she married her ex-husband Xu Xiong, she was taken back to her in-law's house in the middle of the night according to the local customs of Qingbei City.
In order to save money, a 100-shot firecracker was set off.
There was no wedding dress, no decent bride price, not even a decent ceremony.
With a total of one sewing machine and fifty yuan, Li Hui completed the transformation from a girl to a woman.
Aunt Zhao heard the sadness in her daughter's words, so she didn't say anything more, and took the picture in her granddaughter's hand.
"Grandma, I painted this dress for you. You must wear it. Xu Jiaren leaned on her grandmother's ear and whispered.
"You-" Aunt Zhao was surprised.
She said, why does Aishan's painting in the tailor's shop look so familiar.
"Grandma! You agreed. Xu Jiaren grabbed her grandmother's arm and coquettishly.
"Okay, okay! I promise! β
Everyone measured the size of the clothes, Yan Xin took out his wallet and asked, "Boss, how much is it in total?" When will I prepare this fabric for you? β
Ai Shan said with a smile: "Auntie, we have the fabrics in our store, and the money is ...... You can give it back when you get your clothes. β
"Huh? How's that going to work? "Yan Xin heard for the first time that he didn't want fabrics and didn't want a deposit.
"The beautiful woman knows me very well, it doesn't matter." After speaking, Ai Shan said politely: "I heard that the beautiful woman said that you are in the family courtyard at the back, if you want to make the suit and pants you usually wear, you can also come to me." β
Yan Xin generously agreed: "Okay, I'll come to you for this year's New Year's clothes!" But...... The premise is that you have to make a cheongsam for me this time. Otherwise, you are a good friend of the beauty, and I won't give face. β
"That's nature! Auntie, don't worry. Aishan nodded in response.
Xu Jiaren especially likes Yan Xin's character, which is both rigid and soft, which will not make people feel bullied or mean.
After coming out of the tailor's shop, Aunt Zhao said goodbye and prepared to go home.
Yan Xin took Aunt Zhao's hand and said enthusiastically: "Old sister, you can calculate how many tables of banquets you want over there, and I will book a banquet when they get the certificate." β
"Good! Okay - we'll see you another day, then. β
"Goodbye."
Xu Jiaren hugged Yan Xin's waist and said softly, "Grandma, thank you." β
"You little clever ghost."
Yan Xin rubbed the child's soft ponytail and smiled gently.
β¦β¦
"Huihui, do you have anyone to invite in your unit?"
Aunt Zhao went home and began to worry about the banquet list.
"I'm not invited, there is no good person in our unit."
Li Hui thought for a while and said, "I want to invite Huanhuan to see if they are willing to come." Count me three and it's done. β
"You haven't been in touch with Huanhuan for a long time, have you?" Aunt Zhao asked when she heard her daughter's name.
"Where do you think I have time? Just take one day off a week, come buy something, and see you and Yadan going back. β
When it came to work, Li Hui was dissatisfied, and said: "This time Aunt Yan recommended the exam, I must fight hard." β
Since she came to work in the supply and marketing cooperative, Li Hui basically doesn't have much contact with her good friends, and she doesn't even have time to go shopping.
If this job is comfortable, forget it, but the leader always wears small shoes for her, and last month the leader also gave her salary to her ex-husband's bastard, which made Li Hui hate this unit more and more.
"Then you should work hard this time."
Aunt Zhao couldn't help much, so she paused and asked, "Then your brother and your aunt's family are still invited?" β
"Grandma, are you crazy?" Xu Jiaren asked speechlessly.
Li Hui also immediately shook her head: "Not invited." I don't want to see Zhao Guixiang's family, as for my brother...... When Shaoyuan and I are done, let's go back and send him some cigarettes and alcohol. β
"Then there are only three of us here...... By the way, I called Xiao Gan on the other side of the door, and people usually help me and the girl. β
"Okay. Last time, you were hospitalized and Yadan's hospitalization, and they helped a lot. β
Li Hui immediately wrote Gan Li's name on the list.
"There is also Brother Yuheng, Qi Fei and Shi Dong, and Ai Shan should also be written." Xu Jiaren hurriedly said: "By the way, leave me three more seats, maybe two more friends are coming." β
Shi Yuheng and Qi Fei are two people, Li Hui knows each other, that Ai Shan also met in the tailor's shop just now, people greeted them so warmly, Li Hui was embarrassed not to send invitations, but the daughter said that there were two other people, who were they?
Moreover, Li Hui noticed a question, did her 4-year-old daughter know a little too many "friends"?
"Yaba, you can't call everyone. Banquets cost money. Li Hui was afraid that talking too much would make her daughter unhappy, so she said euphemistically: "You ask a few friends and mothers to agree, but let's only pick the best friends, okay?" β
"However, I call the best relationship."
Li Hui has a little headache, but she thinks that her daughter is so young, where can she count what she says?
After thinking about it, she only had three spots on the list for her daughter.
