Chapter 208 Marriage
The sky fell for Li Ping and Chang Youchun.

First, Chang Wenchuang got seriously ill and needed surgery, and now Chang Wenbing got an incurable disease. The successive bad news crushed the couple's backs. For just a moment, the couple seemed to have aged twenty years.

Li Ping threw herself into Chang Wenbing's arms and cried loudly. While crying, she beat Chang Wenbing's chest and angrily scolded him for his unfilial piety.

Chang Wenbing was helpless. He also wanted to be filial, but it was not up to him whether the disease could be cured or not.

It took most of the day for Li Ping and Chang Youchun to calm down slightly. Li Ping grabbed Chang Wenbing's sleeve and asked him: "Does Anna know about your illness? If it really can't be cured, let's not delay it. "

Chang Wenbing said truthfully: "She knows, she knew it a long time ago."

"Isn't it really good to treat it? If the hospital in our small place doesn't work, go to a big hospital. Don't worry about money. Your dad and I have saved a lot in the past few years. If there is a way, your elder brother can't just ignore it, and your uncle Your third uncle’s house”

"Mom, don't worry. If it can be cured, I will treat it even abroad. But" seeing Li Ping's face getting paler, he changed the subject and said, "Mom, I want to marry Anna, do you agree?"

"Pah", Li Ping slapped Chang Wenbing on the arm, "What do you want to do? After our disease is cured, can't we get married again? Do we have to get married now?"

Li Ping couldn't speak, but Chang Wenbing understood what she meant.

If the disease cannot be cured, then the marriage cannot be concluded.

why?

Because in Li Ping's view, a woman who is widowed and has a baby will have a more difficult life. Even if she meets a good man in the future, she may not want her because of this. Then isn't this just delaying Anna.

Li Ping may be selfish or careless, but she is also a woman. She understands the pain and difficulty of women, and she can still think of other women when she herself is extremely sad.

"Mom, you don't understand... Anna said that she doesn't care whether she gets married or not, but if she gets married, her and An Yi's life in China will be much more convenient, and when I... she can also make many decisions for me in the future." Chang Wenbing explained.

Li Ping really didn't understand much, but she could tell that the benefits of marriage outweighed the disadvantages for Anna.

That being the case...

"It's already like this, what can your father and I say? Wen Bing, we are all fine, and we will be fine in the future." Li Ping murmured.

Chang Wenbing immediately contacted Anna and told Anna the good news.

Not only are the Chang family members action-oriented, but the Chang family's daughter-in-law is also extremely efficient.

Anna took leave that day and went to the embassy to apply for some documents needed for a foreign marriage. Three days later, the mother and son appeared in front of the Chang family, dusty.

Getting the certificate was in a hurry, and Chang Wenbing and Anna wanted to keep a low profile, but Li Ping and Chang Youchun didn't give them a chance to keep a low profile.

Chang Youchun called his eldest brother, sister-in-law, three brothers and three younger sisters to come home, and the three families discussed together to organize a decent wedding for Chang Wenbing and Anna.

When the adults are busy, the juniors of the Chang family can't just watch.

So the juniors got together to discuss and decided that the adults would make decisions and handle the interpersonal relationships in and outside the village. The juniors rushed back and forth to purchase the items needed for the wedding and decorate the wedding scene. Anyway, they just did all the work they could do.

Time is tight and the tasks are heavy. The wedding must be completed before Chang Wenxi returns to the team, so everyone must take action, divide work and cooperate to maximize efficiency.

As the only girl of this generation in the Chang family, she is very popular at this time.

After being divided into groups, each group wanted to pull her over and ask her to help rent them out as a consultant. Unfortunately, she had already been booked by the second aunt Li Ping in advance.

She will accompany Li Ping to Ningping County, where she will meet Qiu Yinong, and then the three of them will go to a gold store to buy gold jewelry for Anna.

It is an unwritten rule in their place that the married man's family should provide three pieces of gold or hardware. In fact, Anna didn't know this at all, and Li Ping was in such a hurry to get married that she didn't have to prepare.

But she couldn't get over this hurdle in her heart.

On the way to the county seat, Li Ping said to her: "Jiu'er, it's so difficult for us women in this life. Being born well doesn't necessarily mean you'll get a good marriage, and marrying well doesn't necessarily mean you'll live a good life. We go through every pit in our lives step by step. We don’t have much ability, and we can’t take care of outsiders’ affairs, so let’s take care of our own affairs and our own family. Your second sister-in-law is a foreign woman with a child who is neither black nor white, so I think. Just think about it and you know how difficult it is for her. Since she doesn't mind your second brother's illness and still wants to marry him, then we have to be kind to her. You don't need to think about saving money for your second aunt today, we will buy the most expensive and best. "

That’s very grand, but
"Second aunt, that's what I said, but we still have to think more comprehensively. My eldest sister-in-law wants to go with us. Whatever you gave her when she married my eldest brother, you have to give me the same amount as your second sister-in-law now, even if there is a difference. It can’t be too different. People’s hearts are fleshy and can be easily injured. Don’t just think about loving my second sister-in-law and neglecting my elder sister-in-law.”

Li Ping slapped her forehead, she really didn't expect this.

Although Qiu Yinong is not the kind of narrow-minded person, Li Ping, as a mother-in-law, must not think about her daughter-in-law just because she doesn't care about her.

No matter when the time comes, you can never go wrong with a bowl of water.

So, when the three of them met to go shopping, Li Ping only asked about the price of buying gold jewelry for Qiu Yinong, but Qiu Yinong took the initiative to ask Li Ping to buy more expensive gold jewelry for Anna.

"Mom, if you don't have enough money, I still have it here. My brother and sister have come all the way from abroad to get married, so we can't neglect it. Let's buy these things as good as possible. Mom, don't worry about me, Wen Yu and I will Before you, Li'an was basically brought up by you and my dad. You and my dad put so much thought into us. The second brother and younger siblings are far away, but you don't need to worry so much. You love them so much. It’s also appropriate,” Qiu Yinongte said empathetically.

She gave Qiu Yinong a thumbs up and praised her sincerely: "Sister-in-law, you are so kind."

Qiu Yinong said this, so what else did Li Ping have to worry about.

Not only did she buy a lot of hardware, she also bought clothes and shoes for her two daughters-in-law and her, who was just taking advantage.

Qiu Yinong also prepared gifts for his younger siblings. They were furs, which were very useful.

She was very considerate when thinking about others, but when it was her turn, she was always missing the mark.

They all drove home before she felt something was wrong.

As the only sister of the brothers, if the eldest sister-in-law comes in and gives her a gift, then the second sister-in-law must also prepare a gift for her when she comes in. Even if the second sister-in-law doesn't expect this, the second brother will definitely remind her.

Then she has to prepare a return gift for her second sister-in-law in advance!
But she didn't prepare anything. She couldn't stuff a red envelope into Anna's hand when the time came.

Money is the most real thing, but it is really not appropriate for her to give it.

Time was too tight. After returning home, she had to help decorate the house, so she had no time to run out. What about the gifts?

When she mentioned this matter to Shitou on the phone, she sighed irritably.

"My head feels like it's filled with oil at critical moments. It's so annoying."

Shitou chuckled and comforted: "Don't worry, have you decided what to give? Tell me if you think about it, and I will buy it for you."

Oh, yes, how could she forget this!

If you want the stone to come back, just buy the stone for whatever you need.

but
"What to buy? Her mind is so confused that she has no idea at all."

In the end, Shitou took over everything and said to her with a smile: "You can just be busy with your family affairs. I will help you choose the gifts. I guarantee you won't make any mistakes."

She believed in the stone. Facts have proved that sometimes you can’t trust too much in rocks.

Stone brings her a stone.
"That's it?" She felt that there must be something wrong with Shitou's brain.

Shitou was very satisfied with the gift he brought.

"This is not an ordinary stone, it is a raw jade stone. You can't see anything with the naked eye, but there is jade inside when you cut it open. Don't underestimate it, this piece is not cheap." Shitou explained.

She had a headache, a real pain.

"How can you be sure that there must be jade in this stone? And how can you be sure that the jade inside must be worth the money you paid to buy the stone? Isn't this gambling? Nine times out of ten you will lose, you are doing a loss-making business."

Shitou smiled relaxedly: "It's meaningless if you think like that. Spending money to buy excitement is the best if you make money. It's fun even if you don't make money. This gift is so interesting, but it's not more meaningful than buying a bag or something."

Needless to say, he actually explained something that was quite troublesome and made some sense.

Seeing her relaxed expression, Shitou mysteriously took out a smaller rough stone and handed it to her.

"Xiaojiu, this is for you. You can open it if you want. If you don't want to, you can make a base and put it on the table as a small ornament." Shitou said proudly.

Yes, he even got addicted to giving away stones.

Although the preparation time was short, Chang Wenbing and Anna's wedding was a big one.

Li Ping and Chang Youchun really tried their best to help them. The whole village was invited this time, regardless of any grudges they had in the past. All they wanted was joy and excitement.

The banquet was laid out for three days, each with dozens of tables, and the dishes on each table were of the highest standard for local banquets.

Regardless of how much gift money is received, the noodles must be sufficient anyway.

Chang Wenbing said that Anna was very interested in the customs of their place, so they had a full wedding ceremony, and even went to the bridal chamber in the evening. A group of people were shouting and drinking, and Chang Wenbing and Anna played several small games. Just let them go.

It was after eleven o'clock to watch the excitement and dispersed. The young couple was tired from a long day and went to bed first. The group of helpers gathered in Li Ping and Chang Youchun's room to help count the gifts.

At the last statistic, it was a loss.

"It's not just to make money by hosting a banquet at a wedding. It's appropriate to spend some money on such a festive and lively event." Li Ping was quite happy.

Li Ping also specially sewed a red bag with auspicious patterns of dragons and phoenixes on it, which looked very festive.

Li Ping and Chang Youchun collected the gift account and stuffed the money into a red bag. Li Ping smiled and said: "Give this bag to Anna tomorrow. Of course they have to take the gift money given to them."

She guessed that Anna and Chang Wenbing would definitely not want it, and there would definitely be a fight.

She wanted to watch the tug-of-war, but unfortunately Chang Wenxi had to leave Sankeliu tomorrow to go to the provincial capital first, and then return to the army from the provincial capital. She couldn't bear to watch the excitement at her second uncle's and second aunt's house.

Leaving the second uncle and second aunt's house to go home, the brothers were talking and laughing and were very happy.

Then, on this happy and festive night, Shitou knelt down on one knee in front of her and proposed to her.

Proposed again.

The last time I proposed, I got a simple ring, but this time I got a very transparent jade ring.

"No, I've already begged, why do you still beg?" She wanted to pull up the stone.

The stone remained as motionless as the stone.

Her brothers and Lian Kui were watching the fun, and she felt a little embarrassed.

Stone is not embarrassed.

"I want to imprint my lifelong commitment to you on every happy day. Xiaojiu, marry me." Shitou said affectionately.

"Xiaojiu, don't agree, let's see what he can do!" Chang Wenle was watching the excitement and heckled without thinking it was a big deal.

Chang Wenxi also echoed: "Yes, he is willing to ask for it again and again. Xiaojiu, we can't let him go too smoothly."

Since my brothers have said so
She cleared her throat, raised her head proudly, and said back to Shitou: "Today is Brother Wen Bing and Anna's wedding day. It's inappropriate for you to propose to me at this time."

Shitou quickly explained: "I just didn't want to overwhelm you, so I waited till late at night to propose to you in front of my own family."

"It's just not appropriate anyway!" She said unreasonably but forcefully: "Today's proposal was rejected, you can make up your own mind."

Shitou was not upset after being rejected and took matters into his own hands.

So what did he do?
Early the next morning, when the whole family was packing and preparing things for Chang Wenxi and Chang Wenle, Shitou knelt down on one knee in front of her again.

This time, both Mo Lan and Chang Chunsheng were here. There were more people watching the excitement, which made her even more embarrassed.

Shitou also changed his words and said to her: "Xiaojiu, in front of my uncle, aunt and brothers, I solemnly promise you that I will be good to you for the rest of my life. Can you marry me?"

then
Then she and Shitou were kicked out by Moran.

At that time, Moran was holding a broomstick in his hand, frowning and saying displeasedly: "You two are so blind, didn't you see that the boots I made for your eldest and second brothers are missing? It's fine if you don't help to find them." If you still make trouble for me, get out of here and don't let me get in the way."

The brothers laughed without any dignity at all, and then they were all kicked out by Moran.

The worst thing was that Chang Wenjian, who was the slowest runner, got hit by Mo Lan and became the only victim of the marriage proposal farce.

This farce is not derogatory. After all, after being kicked out, she quickly put away the jade ring because she was afraid that the stone would be used to damage other people. Seeing the excitement, her brothers and sisters were much less worried about parting.

There was a group of people cheering when I came, and there was also a group of people cheering when I left.

Moran, who has always been open-minded and cheerful, couldn't help crying.

She held Chang Wenxi in one hand and Chang Wenle in the other, and warned Yin Yin: "You must take care of yourselves outside. No matter how busy or tired you are, don't forget to eat. Even if you can't eat hot rice, you must have hot water. No matter what, you can't let your body collapse. When you have time, call home. Don't report good news or bad news. If something happens, just tell your family. If your father and I can't help you, don't you still have your younger brothers and sisters? , all the brothers and sisters in the family help each other, let’s not talk about what happens in the future when your dad and I are both here.”

Who can bear this? From the eldest to the youngest, there is no one who doesn’t cry.

The car drove far away before she could stop crying.

Lian Kui, who was sitting next to her in the same car with her, nudged her. She glanced forward to make sure Shi Shi and Chang Wenxi on the driver's seat and passenger seat were not looking at them. Lian Kui secretly stuffed something into her. He held his hand and whispered into her ear: "Don't say anything, just peek."
