Chapter 302: Wedding (1)
In fact, the house on the top floor has many defects, such as water leakage and no heat insulation, but what woman can refuse the temptation of a rooftop flower house?
Ruan Qingqing even thought about the layout of the flower room, to set up a big workbench and a drawing board, she can design in the flower room during the day, and look at the stars at night.
Then build a terrace outside the flower house, and you can have coffee and barbecue with friends when you have nothing to do.
Seeing her liking for the house, Jiang Chen directly asked the agent to negotiate with the landlord.
It was only at this time that Ruan gently reacted that Jiang Chen was ready to buy this place, not rent it.
"When I graduate, I'll go back to China, we don't have to buy this place, it's good to rent a house."
Housing prices in London are not cheap, and even older apartments in this area can cost thousands of pounds per square metre.
Jiang Chen insisted on buying it, and the reason made Ruan Qing unable to refuse.
"Sister, after buying this place, you can live in London for a holiday or to visit friends in the future, or it can be used as an investment, and the old house in this area will definitely rise sharply in the future."
This is true, her domestic commercial housing has nearly tripled in recent years, and in an international metropolis like London, housing prices will inevitably rise.
Even think a little farther, in case Jiang Yao also comes to London to study in the future, the house can be given to Jiang Yao to live in.
Even twenty years later, when she and Jiang Chen's children came to London to study, the house could still be used for the children.
When you think about it, it's a good idea to buy it.
The landlord is a very gentlemanly old man in country Y, and when he learned that the two were about to get married, he bought it in order to form a small family, and he happily gave up part of the price.
Eventually, the apartment was bought for £65,000.
When going through the transfer procedures, Jiang Chen insisted on writing Ruan Qingqing's name and said that it was a bride price.
Ruan gently did not refuse, she didn't care about the bride price or anything, most of the main houses will be lived by her alone in the future, if the head of the household is her, all aspects of life will be much more convenient.
After buying a house, the two began to decorate.
The house is a two-bedroom and one-living room layout, the large bedroom is used as a new room for two people, and the small room is used as a study and guest room.
Jiang Chen is almost always doing the renovation and decoration of the new house, and Ruan is in charge of the design and style building.
For example, the color and pattern of the wallpaper, the material and style of the furniture, the size of the sofa, what kind of dining table, what kind of chandelier is installed, whether the bedroom should be a wrought iron bed or a solid wood bed, curtains, carpets, tablecloths, lamps, etc.
And Jiang Chen is responsible for realizing her ideas one by one.
Time passed day by day in a busy way, and the small apartment gradually took on the appearance she liked.
Finally, on the third day of her summer vacation, the renovation of the small apartment was completely completed.
Looking at the "dream house" that the two of them had worked hard to create, Ruan was extremely glad that they bought it instead of renting it.
Otherwise, she will be extremely reluctant to quit the lease.
There is still half a month before the wedding, in order to let the new house disperse as soon as possible and move in after the wedding, Ruan Qingqing and Jiang Chen went to the flower market to buy all kinds of hydroponics and green plants to purify the air.
Jiang Chen also built a small flower bed for her on the balcony and planted a large cluster of pink roses.
Roses are vine plants that will cover the balcony with green branches the next year, and in May and June, the entire balcony will be filled with pink roses.
……
On the eve of the wedding, Ruan Dahai, Zhang Chunxi, Jiang Yao and Su Yu flew to London to attend the wedding as relatives of both parties.
According to the process of Western-style wedding, the bride and groom can go to the church to attend the ceremony at the specified time, and there is no need to receive relatives.
However, Jiang Chen still rented a beautiful white convertible sports car as a wedding car in accordance with Chinese tradition, and stayed downstairs in Ruan Qingqing's dormitory early in the morning.
In the dormitory, Mui Na, Chen Wei, Jiang Yao and Lisa, the four of them surrounded Ruan and gently helped her dress up.
Mina is in charge of makeup, Chen Wei is in charge of hair, and Lisa and Jiang Yao are assistants to the two.
Downstairs in the dormitory, Jiang Chen, Zhang Chunxi and Su Yu, all three of them were wearing neat suits and ties, ready to go upstairs to pick up their relatives.
At nine o'clock, Ruan gently prepared for the order.
After receiving Jiang Yao's notice, Jiang Chen took the bouquet of white roses and led Zhang Chunxi and Su Yu upstairs to pick up his bride.
In order not to delay the ceremony, Ruan Qingqing's group of relatives and friends was not too embarrassed, let Jiang Chen sing, and let Zhang Chunxi, the best man, dance, and opened the door.
On the way to the church, Jiang Chen drove the car, and Ruan gently sat in the passenger seat.
In order not to mess up her makeup and hair, Jiang Chen drove very slowly.
Today is a good day, the sun is warm and the breeze is not irritable.
The people in the streets threw kind glances and smiles at them.
Ruan gently tilted his head to look at Jiang Chen, who was driving seriously, today he looked more mature, his bangs were neatly combed to the back of his head, revealing a full and smooth forehead, and the bright sunlight fell on the top of his head, making his already exquisite facial features even more dazzling.
Ruan gently felt a trace of uneasiness in her heart.
Everything was so beautiful, so beautiful that it felt unreal to her.
A red light came on in front of him, and the wedding car slowly stopped.
Jiang Chen stretched out his hand to her, his slender and distinct fingers clasped closely with her ten fingers, and the black eyes staring at her seemed to have fallen into thousands of stars, gentle and affectionate.
"It's coming soon."
"Hmm."
The two looked at each other and smiled, and the sweetness fermented in the air.
After arriving at the church, Jiang Chen and the guests went to the church to prepare, and Ruan Qingqing and Ruan Dahai waited outside the church for the time being, waiting to enter.
"Gently, if you get married, you will be an adult, and you will live a good life with Xiaojiang in the future, the husband and wife will inevitably have friction and contradictions, we must learn to be more tolerant and understanding, and discuss things when we encounter them."
Ruan gently endured his sour nose and nodded, "Hmm." ”
"If you are bullied, you come back and tell your father, who will always have your back."
"Okay."
Ruan Qingqing didn't want to cry, but when Ruan Dahai's eyes were soaked in kindness and reluctance, the tears suddenly couldn't be controlled.
"Don't cry, today is your big day, be happy."
Ruan Dahai raised his hand to help her wipe her tears, but his own tears couldn't be stopped.
The baby daughter who has been cared for in the palm of her hand for 22 years is about to marry as a wife, and as a father, the melancholy and reluctance in her heart are indescribable.
……
With the beautiful wedding march and the solemn voice of the priest, the wedding officially began.
The closed church door was opened, Ruan gently took Ruan Dahai's arm, and under the blessed eyes of the guests, he walked slowly but firmly towards Jiang Chen at the end of the flower gallery.
"Groom, do you want the lady in front of you to be your wife and make a marriage contract with her? Whether you are rich or poor, sick or healthy, you will love her, take care of her, respect her, accept her, and remain loyal to her until the end of your life. ”
"Yes, I do."
The priest looked at Ruan lightly, "Then the bride, you ......"
"I do!"
Probably too nervous, before the priest could finish his question, Ruan gently answered first.
Good-natured laughter rang out in the church.
Ruan's face turned pink gently, but in the next second, he recited the words that the priest had not finished speaking, word by word, "...... I am willing to marry Jiang Chen as my wife, whether I am poor or rich, sick or healthy in the future, I will love him, take care of him, respect him, accept him, and always be loyal to him until the end of my life. ”
Her voice is sweet but firm, and she is loud and clear.
Jiang Chen looked at her, as if there was starlight circulating in his dark eyes.
The priest looked at the two of them affectionately, and felt tons of dog food slap their faces, "Okay, then, are you all willing to testify to their wedding vows?" ”
The guests answered yes in unison.
Under the guidance of the priest, Jiang Chen and Nguyen gently and solemnly read the oath, exchanged rings, and received the blessing of the pastor.
"In the name of the Holy Father, the Holy Son, and the Holy Spirit, I declare that Mr. Jiang Chen and Ms. Nguyen Qingxiao are officially married from today, and God will unite you, and no one will be separated."
Applause and cheers rang out, and the two kissed each other in the rain of petals.
