Translator: Henyee Translations| Editor: Henyee Translations
“How long will the preparations take? If you can leave after the New Year’s,
we’ll get your wedding done. Your aunt and I have checked. The 24th of this
month is a good day”
Mrs. Lu felt that Zi Yi would have suffered if they did not hold a wedding
banquet.
However, Zi Yi did not really mind it at all. “We can hold the wedding anytime.
After all, Ah Jing and I have already gotten our marriage certificate.”
Zi Yi lifted the cup and took a sip. She squinted her eyes with a look of
enjoyment. “This milk tea is really delicious.”
Seeing how sensible she was, Mrs. Lu strengthened her determination to give
them a wedding as soon as possible.
After they chatted a while more, they saw Lu Jianlin coming back.
Zi Yi stood up and called out to him. “Dad”
Lu Jianlin stopped walking and he slightly relaxed his stiff expression and
nodded at her.
He then asked, “When will your Uncles and the rest of your family members be
arriving?”
“I think they will only be arriving after 6 p.m. My Uncles have matters to attend
to.”
They were either teaching or spending time in their research and it was
considered quite good that they could rush over here by 6 p.m.
Lu jianlin nodded his head and glanced at the snacks on the table. Following
that, he headed upstairs.
After Lu Jianlin went upstairs, Mrs. Lu smiled and said, “Yiyi, did you see how
your Dad glanced at the table at the end? Even though he seems cold on the
surface, he is a very detail-oriented person.”
Zi Yi nodded her head and did not forget to praise her man. “Ah Jing is his son.
I’ve seen it from how Ah Jing treats me.”
“Haha, that’s true.”
The both of them continued chatting until just after 5 p.m when the father and
son came down from upstairs.
The two of them came over and sat beside their wives.
Lu Jingye looked at how one-quarter of the snacks on the table were gone and
raised his hand to stroke Zi Yi’s head. “Are you still able to eat dinner later?”
Zi Yi smiled and said, “Definitely. I didn’t finish the snacks all at once.”
Having said that, she placed a freshly peeled pistachio nut next to his lips.
Her actions immediately attracted Lu Jianlin and Mrs. Lu’s stare.
Their son doesn’t seem to eat snacks?
Lu Jingye subconsciously wanted to tighten his lips, but after he made eye
contact with Zi Yi’s beautiful eyes, he opened his mouth and ate the nut.
Mrs. Lu felt inexplicably comforted. Her eldest son was finally able to show his
real self and relax in front of a person. “You two should be feeling hungry too.
When everyone from the Dou Family is here, we’ll have dinner first”
The Dou Family people arrived a little past 6 p.m.
other than Elder Dou, all the Dou Family members were here today.
Mrs. Lu and Lu jianlin personally went out to welcome their arrival.
“In-laws, it’s cold outside. Hurry and come in.”
Everyone headed indoors together.
Mrs. Lu and Lu Jianlin attended to Zi Yis Uncles and Aunts, while Zi Yi and Lu
Jingye entertained the younger ones.
A few of the girls came in and immediately surrounded Zi Yi.
Dou Yue’er exclaimed. “In the past, I’ve heard that women who0 get married
would become more beautiful. Sure enough. cousin, it seems like you have
been well taken care of by cousin-in-law”
Zi Yi gave her a look and smiled smugly. “Of course.”
Dou Yue’er giggled and whispered, “Cousin, I’ll ask for a red packet from
cousin-in-law later. IfI do, will you feel reluctant?”
“Why are you asking for a red packet from him?” Zi Yi continued to gaze at her.
Dou Xiangling who was standing at the side laughed and explained on her
behalf. “I don’t know where Yue’er heard this from, but it’s said that in some
places, the first time the female side family visits the male family, they can ask
for a red packet.”
Dou Yue’er nodded her head fiercely. “Yes, that’s right. Therefore this type of
custom is very good and it should be followed”
zi Yi pretended to think for a while before she asked, “Howmuch are you
thinking of asking for?
Dou Yue’er said with a serious expression, “It’ll depend on cousin-in-law’s
generosity. I’ll take the amount he gives me. Moreover, I would have a
reference for the future, so that I know how much of a red packet I should ask
for from my fourth brother-in-law.”
As soon as Dou Xiangling heard Dou Yue’er mentioning ‘fourth
brother-in-law, her face turned red and she chided her. “We aren’t even
official. You naughty girl, you’re not to address him that way.”
“Pft Dou Yue’er giggled and said, “Fourth Sis, you’re so thin-skinned. You’ve
brought him home and you still say you’re not official?
Dou Xiangling’s face turned even redder. “That’s different.”
As soon as Zi Yi heard this, she recalled what Dou Xiangling told her in the
past. Her Third Aunt told Dou Xíangling over the phone to invite Zhang Hanyu
back home, so that they can personally express their gratitude to him. In the
end, Zi Yi asked, “Has’ Teacher Zhang’s injuries recovered”
“Yes,” Dou Xiangling said. “He only stayed in the hospital for a few days before
he was discharged and went back to teach.”
Dou Yue’er even helped her fill in the details. “The gallery that Xiangling
ultimately decided on was also because Teacher Zhang helped her find it.”
Zi Yi’s robots had informed Zi Yi about this, but she only knew that Dou
Xiangling had found a place to open her gallery.
“Where’s the place?”
“It’s the place where we visited together.” Dou Xiangling revealed traces of a
smile in her eyes. “I didn’t expect that Hangyu would visit the younger Mr.
Change again several times. In the end, he was persuaded by Hanyu’s
thick-skinnedness and he decided to rent it out at the market price.”
Dou Yurui added. “Teacher Zhang seems like a nice person. He’s very polite and
good at talking too.”
Evidently, Zhang Hanyu left behind a good impression when he visited the Dou
Family.
Dou Xiangling felt a little embarrassed for them to be chatting about her
matters and so, she shifted the topic to Zi Yi.
“Yiyi, since you’ve decided to donate the assets of the Zi Family’s company
away, there’s no need for you to retun to S City in the future. It’s good this way
too. There’s nothing much to reminisce about there.”
They have all heard of what the other Zi Family members did. Dou Yunhao
guaranteed to Zi Yi. “Yiyi, you can live in the capital with a piece of mind in the
future. Since the Zi Family are so unkind to you, they can’t blame us for
retuming the favor. Leave the problem of the lawsuit to me. I’ll let both
families stay behind bars.”
Zi Yi obviously would not have an opinion about that.
They continued chatting for a while more before Lu Jingye came over and said,
“Uncles and Father are discussing our wedding date. Do you want to go over
and listen?
Before Zi Yi had the chance to speak, Dou Yue’er spoke up. “Of course. After
knowing when the both of you are getting married, only then can we make
preparations in advance
zi Yi gave her a look. “What’s there for you to prepare? Could it be that you’re
going to prepare a present for me?
Dou Yue’er gave her a smile. “Presents are a must, but of course, I still have to
prepare soI can check the date on which I’ll be asking for a red packet.
Having said that, she even had the cheek to call out to Lu Jingye.
Cousin-in-law.”
Lu Jingye liked how she addressed him and gave her a nod. “Do you want a red
packet?”
Dou Yue’er nodded her head in surprise. “Yes, yes, that’s right. If you didn’t
prepare a red packet, you can transfer money directly through your phone too.”
Lu Jingye straightforwardly took out his phone and asked Zi Yi, “Yiyi, how
much should we give your cousin?
Dou Yue’er thought to herself “shouldn’t you be asking me?
Zi Yi revealed a teasing smile and said, “Ten dollars. It’s perfect.e”
“Pft!
Dou Yue’er was stupefied. Dou Xiangling and Dou Yunhao could not hold back
their laughter, as they burst out laughing.
