Chapter 193 Wedding
A long-delayed wedding was arranged during the summer.

When choosing wedding clothes, Dr. Zheng accompanied Chu Xia to look at it three times, and finally decided on a Chinese-style cheongsam, which cost just over 300.Dabei looked at it and said nothing, but Chu Xia could tell that he was not very satisfied.Dabei likes her wearing high heels and formal attire.Every time I come back from abroad, I always bring some cosmetics to her, such as Lamer, Chanel, small brown bottles, etc.After Chu Xia asked about the price, she stuck out her tongue and carefully put it in the cabinet, but never used it.She was used to just doing simple moisturizing and adding a facial mask at most. The more times she used it, the more Dabei stopped wearing it.Although she didn't say anything, she was still somewhat unhappy. Chu Xia was actually very sensitive and could sense changes in Dabei's attitude toward her at any time.

She thought, after all, Dabei worked at the International Trade Center in the urban area and saw many professional women wearing exquisite makeup and various famous brands.Naturally, if you look at casual clothes, sneakers, and a bare face every day, you will feel a little uncomfortable.But if she wants to get married, she doesn't have to change herself. If she doesn't like it, if she insists on pretending to change for the other party at the beginning, it's still the same in the end. adapt.

Then there are wedding photos, hotel reservations, and various wedding items purchases.At first she didn't know so much was needed.Mirrors, combs, thimbles, red handkerchiefs, desk lamps, red washbasins, jujubes, chestnuts... Chu Xia was overwhelmed, Dr. Zheng got the list from somewhere, and dragged it to the ground to check it one by one.

"What are these used for?" Chu Xia asked impatiently as she picked up a thimble.

"Don't worry about it." Doctor Zheng picked up a red handkerchief and threaded it through the thimble, placing it one by one.

"It's really troublesome. Why is there so much to do when getting married?" Chu Xia frowned.

Lao Chu and Dr. Zheng sat in the living room at night to discuss hosting matters. After thinking about it, everyone shook their heads in denial.Asked Chu Xia if there was a suitable candidate, Chu Xia thought about it and said, "It seems that Qiao Sheng, the chairman of our school union, has done it for our colleagues. How about I ask?"

"Then just ask."

After the text message was sent, it took two days for Qiao Sheng to reply: "I'm not free." It was only in early summer that he realized that the union chairman could not be invited by just anyone.I feel a little hot-skinned, the whole family is straight-minded, and no one has thought about how they can ask the leader to help?In the end, Lao Chu asked the old director of his previous unit to help.

Routine wedding photos, reception of relatives and friends, all kinds of detailed arrangements... In early summer, I didn't worry about anything, and I still slept until midnight every day.

Dabei laughed at her: "Are you a pig? You only eat and sleep every day." She took a wedding leave and it was rare for her to stay at home for two weeks.

"There are still dramas to watch." Chu Xia lay lazily on the bed.

Dabei rushed over, held his face and kissed him, "Little Pig, get up. After dinner, let's buy some drinks and the like and take them to the restaurant in advance. Look how busy your parents are. ”

Chu Xia rolled her eyes and said, "Okay." The two of them were laughing and joking. Doctor Zheng passed by the door and looked at the young couple without saying anything.

After getting married, the two still lived in the two-bedroom apartment of Chu Xia's parents. After all, Tongzhou was too far away to live in a new house.Although Dabei is not happy, he can't help it. After all, Chu Xia works here, and he often travels on business.

The wedding is always organized by the bride first. Dozens of tables are prepared at the restaurant of relatives and friends in Yuyang, and there are all kinds of toasts and blessings.What Chu Xia didn't expect was that Principal Zhang would be generous and bring all the main leaders of the school to the scene, causing the number of people in the private room to exceed the limit and only a few more chairs could be added.

Chu Xia was in a hurry, and after a hurried toast, he and Da Bei left early.Not seeing the sullen look on the face of the union chairman behind him, the office director was the best at judging colors. He toasted to the principal and joked: "I really don't understand much about things on the surface, but I know how to work hard."

Principal Zhang smiled and said nothing. The whole table ate and drank among themselves, toasting each other and not mentioning it anymore.

One day after the wedding, it was past nine o'clock in the evening when I got home after packing up, and I had to wait for Xie Zhi in the next two days.In early summer, thinking about it makes her head ache, why is it so troublesome to get married.Just after changing his clothes, Dr. Zheng came in with a plate. Chu Xia took a closer look and found that it was a plate of uncooked dumplings.

"Mom, why are the dumplings brought here without being cooked? I'm not hungry."

"Stupid thing, are the dumplings still alive?"

"It's raw, why?"

Doctor Zheng smiled and said to Dabei again: "Dabei, try it, will it survive?"

"Sister, Mom." Dabei was very obedient.

"Hey." Doctor Zheng narrowed his eyes with a smile, turned to point at Chu Xia and said, "Much better than you."

"Tsk," Chu Xia finally understood, "an old idea."

"What old ideas? I only did four rites now. In the past, I had to do at least eight rites." After saying that, he stuffed something under the bed.

Chu Xia was surprised. When she went out, her curiosity aroused and she saw that it was a plate of dates and chestnuts.

"Oh, my mother, I'm really convinced."

Dabei said while changing clothes: "You should know something, mom and dad are not only doing good for us."

Chu Xia shrugged: "Okay, I admit it. Did you know? It turns out that the thimble was meant to be thrown out of the car. My mother also said that you should take it with you when you go there. Isn't this a waste?"

"Why throw it out?"

"If a wedding car comes over, you have to throw a thimble to push it back. Do you think it's superstitious? You also wear a red handkerchief on it. Are you afraid that others won't pick it up if they don't see it?" Chu Xia said exaggeratedly.

"Oh, I'll go, I'm convinced." Dabei also felt that it was a bit exaggerated.

Doctor Zheng and Lao Chu were also murmuring in the room: "Oh, no matter how carefully I think about it, it's still the same."

"Okay, okay, it's almost done, you say who cares about these things now, young people, you say you make so much, she still finds it annoying." Lao Chu turned over and turned his back to her.

"I'm happy, nonsense, I'm just such a daughter. When I married you, I had nothing. Now that the conditions are better, I can't let my daughter be wronged." Doctor Zheng snorted angrily.

The next week I went back to my hometown in Dabei to have a banquet. My husband's family booked the best hotel in the county. It was said that central government officials stayed there during their inspection.Early in the morning, after setting makeup to pick up the car, Dabei also found a BMW X5 as the lead car. After getting in the car and leaving the hotel, the deafening sound of firecrackers rang out.

As the motorcade drove all the way to the village, Dabei was a little uneasy. He held Chuxia's hand and said, "This is already the best car we can find. The same is true for the hotel. It was reserved only for students who are looking for us to work in the public security department."

Chu Xia turned around and smiled: "You know I never care about these things, it's just a matter of face. Of course, you arranged it so well, and I'm happy too." Seeing that Dabei's expression was about to change, he quickly added another sentence.

On the big day, everyone is happy and there is nothing unhappy about it.In fact, what Chu Xia was thinking about was completely different from Da Bei's. The makeup she put on this morning was really ugly, and she even had a strand of hair on the side.The frequencies of women and men never seem to resonate completely on the same line. The two of them looked out the window, each worrying about their own things.

It seems that weddings are like this, busy and flustered, lively and messy, festive and irritable.No matter what, Chu Xia had married herself.

In the corner of the bedroom at home in Yuyang, there is a big bear doll as tall as one person.Brown, silly, and very soft to the touch.He clasped his hands on his chest, and no one knew there was a letter sealed inside.

"I hope you will be happy all your life! I don't have the chance to be by your side, so let it take my place to see you happy every day!"
