Chapter 177 Marriage Marriage
When Ren Shuxia came home and saw Ding Xiang, Ding Xiang said to her:
"Shuxia, my mother-in-law and I have agreed that we will go back to Ruyang tomorrow. There are still four or five days before your wedding. You and Li Te will see how your new house is furnished first?"

"Mom, let's go, what about cocoa?" Ren Shuxia asked.

"Ke Ke, when she is on vacation at the end of the month, let her godmother take her back!" Ding Xiang said with a smile.

"Shuxia, how are you doing on the Beijing-Zhangjiakou high-speed railway?" Ren Ziyu still cared about his daughter's work.

"I..." Before Shuxia could speak, Ding Xiang stopped her and shouted at Ren Ziyu:

"Old man, Shuxia is coming back this time to do something important. Your daughter is getting married. As a father, are you all right? You only have work in your mind!"

"Okay, okay, I'll just listen to you!" Ren Ziyu smiled foolishly.

"Mom, I want to go back the day after tomorrow. Li Te and I have something important to do tomorrow, what should we do?" Ren Shuxia suddenly said to Ding Xiang.

"What's the matter? It's more important than your marriage. It can't be about work again!" Ding Xiang asked worriedly.

"Mom, this is about the happiness of Li Te and me, don't worry!" Ren Shuxia replied with a smile.

"Mom, I know what Shuxia means. She and I will go to the Civil Affairs Bureau tomorrow to register and apply for a certificate!" Li Te said, giving Ren Shuxia a knowing smile.

"That's good, that's good, I'll get you the household registration book right now!" Ding Xiang turned around with a smile and went into the back room.

In the evening, Ren Shuxia followed Li Te to their home in Zhengzhou. Li Te had already redecorated the house briefly in Ren Shuxia's refined European minimalist style. Li held Ren Shuxia's hand and came to their house. bedroom, asked with a smile:
"Yan'er, look, do you like this bed?"

Ren Shuxia looked at it, smiled and asked:
"I've been away for the past few months, but you haven't been idle for a moment!"

"That is, the new houses here and in my hometown have been newly renovated, and the furniture and daily necessities are all new." Li Te replied.

"It seems that you have planned for a long time, and you have bad intentions?" Ren Shuxia said shyly.

Li Te looked at the shy blush on Ren Shuxia's face, and thought she was so beautiful, so he couldn't help but grab her and said softly:

"What's wrong with being mean to my wife! You don't want to!"

"Okay, okay, stop making trouble, let's go to bed early tonight, and we have to register tomorrow morning?" Ren Shuxia persuaded.

"Deling, my empress, let's drive back to Luan!"

"Look at how dead you are, you're out of shape!" Ren Shuxia scratched Li Te's nose lightly with her fingers, and said with a smile.

Early the next morning, Ren Shuxia and Li Te found the Civil Affairs Bureau early and successfully obtained a marriage certificate. Li Te looked at the bright red book, hugged Ren Shuxia happily, and cheered with a smile:

"I'm married, I'm married!"

His happy move caused the people around him to stare and applaud them.

At noon, Li Te specially found a western restaurant. The two of them sat together to celebrate their happy moments, and they didn't return home until four or five in the afternoon.

Li Te looked at the exhausted Ren Shuxia, and asked distressedly:

"Yan'er, are you tired?"

"What do you think?" Ren Shuxia asked back.

"Okay, then let's go to bed and rest!" Li Te was so tired that he didn't even have time to take off his clothes, and at the end there were loud noises...

Seeing him like this, Ren Shuxia had no choice but to help him take off his clothes, and the two embraced and fell asleep...
