Cousin Li Xuanyu¡¯s wedding was a bit like a farce.
The parents of both parties have never met. The man did not have a betrothal gift or a matchmaker. He just made a phone call and the conversation was not pleasant.
even so,
Sheng Yuqiang still agreed to the marriage, and even gritted his teeth and booked 10 banquet tables at a five-star hotel.
The reason for this is because Sheng Xiaoxia is pregnant.
The man¡¯s parents don¡¯t want to admit it now, but they don¡¯t deny the identity of Sheng Xiaoxia¡¯s daughter-in-law. Their attitude is that if they want to marry, they will get married, and if they don¡¯t, they will be rejected.
But Sheng Yuqiang had no other choice.
If a daughter is pregnant and does not marry the man, it will be a stain in the future and it will be difficult to find a husband again.
The older generation is always more conservative in their thinking, and they want to marry off Sheng Xiaoxia with tears in their eyes.
Sheng Yuhong scolded the man and his whole family for not being a thing.
But she also knew that not marrying would be more harmful to Sheng Xiaoxia.
So, the wedding continues, the banquet still has to be served, and the bridesmaids still have to be chosen.
Li Xuanyu softened his heart after hearing what happened to Sheng Xiaoxia, and finally agreed at Sheng Yuqiang's request.
Before leaving, Sheng Yuqiang told Li Xuanyu that Sheng Xiaoxia would come over tomorrow morning to take her to choose a dress, put on makeup, and thank her again and again.
Li Shian and Sheng Yuhong sent him downstairs. Looking at his back, Sheng Yuhong sighed.
"This Xiaoxia is too ignorant!"
The dissatisfaction with my niece is more due to my heartache for my elder brother.
She finally understood her eldest brother¡¯s difficulty.
Knowing that the man is not good and she still has to get married, the only thing she can do is to give her daughter a glorious wedding, hoping that her husband¡¯s family will treat her well.
This is why Sheng Yuqiang lowered his face to invite Li Xuanyu and held a banquet at Suxin Hotel.
Li Shian comforted her: "
"Things have reached this point. It's definitely unrealistic to regret it. We can only take it one step at a time."
"I feel sorry for you, big brother!"
"It's useless to say anything now. It's better to help big brother elsewhere."
"By the way, give him some money so that he will be less stressed. Otherwise, hotels, dowry, and clothing will cost a lot of money"
Li Shian shook his head:
"Brother won't ask for money."
Sheng Yuhong was a little discouraged.
The eldest brother personally asked Li Xuanyu to be the bridesmaid, which was already the limit. It was impossible to ask for their money.
"You are also worried. Xiaohai knows the owner of Suxin Hotel and asked him to ask if he can get a discount. This can also reduce the burden on the elder brother."
"Isn't this not good?"
"For the sake of big brother, let's make an exception. Besides, Xiaohai is a good guy, so he'll be fine."
Sheng Yuhong suddenly fell silent.
"What¡¯s wrong with you?"
"It seems we haven't met Xiaohai's parents yet, right?"
Having been in the same boat for so many years, Li Shian suddenly guessed what she was thinking.
"Xuan Yu is only a sophomore this year!"
Sheng Yuhong looked at her husband seriously:
"My daughter is following Yi Xiaohai now. What if she is like Xiaoxia?"
"Xiao Hai promised me that he would not go beyond that step."
"He is so young. If he fails to control it, it will be his daughter who will suffer the consequences!"
Sheng Yuhong thought of Xiaoxia's example and felt that her worries were warranted.
"The example of Xiaoxia is right in front of us. If she gets pregnant before marriage, the man's parents don't pay attention to it because they know that no one else can marry except them. What if their daughter encounters a similar situation?"
Li Shian hesitated
"That kid Xiaohai is not that kind of person."
"He's not that kind of person, and you don't know his parents well. What if they have the same attitude? What will Xuan Yu do!"
"Yuhong, are you thinking too much?"
"If that happens, you won't be able to find a place to cry. We must consider our daughter."
The more Sheng Yuhong thought about it, the more wrong she became. She turned around and came up.
"Why are you going?"
"I want to see his parents!"
"His parents are abroad!"
¡°Then we have to give a specific time, or fly back to meet!¡±
Because of Sheng Xiaoxia¡¯s incident, Sheng Yuhong became aware of the crisis and began to distrust Yi Xiaohai.
She must determine a name for her daughter.
"But she didn't believe it. If Li Xuanyu trusted someone wrong and gave her a title, it would be even more harmful to her daughter.
When Li Shian saw his wife in a hurry, he wanted to go up to her, but he didn't stop her.
He thinks he can judge people fairly accurately, and Yi Xiaohai should be someone worth trusting.
But it is indeed necessary to meet Yi Xiaohai¡¯s parents.
At home,
Yi Xiaohai and Li Xuanyu were talking and laughing, clearing the dishes together.
Sheng Yuhong came up to fight angrily. Seeing this scene, she felt a little more at ease.
But you still have to ask.
"Xiaohai, let me ask you something."
"You asked."
"Are you planning to marry Xuan Yu in the future?"
Li Xuanyu¡¯s face turned red: ¡°Mom, what are you doing!¡±
"Don't worry, let Xiaohai answer my question."
Sheng Yuhong¡¯s question made Yi Xiaohai feel a bit sudden.
But at this time, there can be no ambiguity.
He nodded: "I will marry Xuan Yu."
"Then Xuan Yu will follow you all over the world now, and it will definitely not work for you to be anonymous. You are still young and it is impossible to get married now, but you can get engaged first. When will your parents meet us?"
Yi Xiaohai immediately understood why Sheng Yuhong suddenly raised the issue of engagement.
Sheng Xiaoxia¡¯s incident must have irritated her, and she was worried that Li Xuanyu would encounter the same situation.
"Auntie, my parents are abroad for the time being, but they will come back during the Spring Festival this year. Then I will invite them to come and meet with you to discuss the matter between Xuan Yu and me."
Yi Xiaohai did not avoid it and directly gave the time, which made Sheng Yuhong very satisfied.
At this time, she also calmed down a little:
"If they are busy, we can go see them. If we really don't have time, we don't have to force it."
"Auntie, my mother likes Xuan Yu very much. If she knows what you mean, she will definitely be very happy to fly back from the United States. However, grandpa needs someone to take care of him, so it may have to wait until the end of this year"
"It's okay, I'm just asking."
With Yi Xiaohai¡¯s guarantee, Sheng Yuhong felt confident.
"Xuan Yu and I will clear the table, and you go play chess with your uncle"
Sheng Yuhong happily started to clear away the dishes.
Li Shian came over and pulled Yi Xiaohai aside and took out the chess set.
"Next game?"
"Okay, but I haven't been here for a while and I'm a bit rusty. Uncle, please take it easy."
¡°At most I¡¯ll give you a chance to get to the middle of the game.¡±
Li Shian is not humble at all, but he does have this strength.
The two of them laid out their chess pieces, and Yi Xiaohai moved first.
"Do you know the owner of Suxin Hotel?"
"I know him. I'll call him later and tell him about the banquet."
Li Shian¡¯s purpose in asking this question is self-evident.
