Chapter 145

The wedding process basically does not require the participation of the bride and groom, and most of it is done by the parents.

The guest list has been released, and both Lin Mei and Tu Hai are assigned a part of the list and asked them to call to notify them.

"Be ahead of the year." Lin's mother said, "It will be inconvenient after the year, and your stomach will get bigger if you delay it for a few months. If you finish it before the year, it will be a waste!"

A wedding is not like a wedding, but a festive task that must be completed.

Tu's father and Tu's mother watched over the decoration of their new house. After Lin Mei chose the cabinets, Tu Hai called back to tell his parents, and then repaired accordingly.Lin's mother said 3 yuan to buy furniture and home appliances, which was paid by their wife.

Lin Mei said: "You don't need to buy all the furniture. The bed, wardrobe, sofa and dining table are enough. Let's go back and live for a few days. It's just a matter of meaning." , Mother Lin also said that she would prepare ten quilts for her, so a wardrobe is a must.Both the sofa and the dining table are used to entertain guests, and they will definitely have a lot of guests on the days when they go home for the wedding.

"At least a shoe cabinet, right? They built a house and redecorated it, and they have new cabinets or something. You can't be too stingy." Mother Lin thinks this is a bit too economical.

"Give me all the money saved, and treat it as a subsidy for us." Is it okay now?Lin Mei asked again, "There is no need to buy home appliances."

Mother Lin almost jumped up sitting on the sofa: "How can I not buy appliances!! The big head is home appliances!"

"We won't go back to live, Mom. At least in the next three years, we don't plan to go back. Will the appliances still work if they are not used for three years? It's better to wait until we go back and buy new ones. Isn't this just a show? How convenient is it?" "Lin Mei thinks this is very good and rational.

But Lin's mother thinks that Lin Mei is simply ignorant!

Tuhai also encountered strong opposition from Tu's father and Tu's mother!

The reason is that Mother Tu said: "Have you bought the ring yet? Do you have any money? How much are you going to buy?" Mother who has no money will subsidize you.

Tuhai: "Meimei said that there is no need to buy a ring, the one I bought for her before is very good."

"How can you not buy a ring? The one you bought before is not a wedding ring!" Mother Tu was taken aback, and then asked: "Where are the wedding photos taken? Let's take them there, yours are good."

"Meimei said no." A waste of money.Tuhai swallowed the latter one back.

"Why don't you take pictures?" Tu's mother was really upset at this moment, "Then what should I show them when relatives and friends come? You two are outside, and people come to our house and say that they heard that your son is married. Do you have any pictures?" Let me take a look. If I can't take it out, I won't be ashamed! Wedding photos must be taken!"

What kind of relatives and friends will specially come to see the wedding photos?Tu Hai didn't dare to refute, knowing that this was Tu's mother trying to show off.

"Is there no money?" Tu's mother guessed, and said: "Then mom will pay you, you can find a good bridal shop over there to take pictures, and the pictures will look better!"

Then I continued to ask, "You should also buy the clothes for the wedding when you come back. I calculated, you are relatively simple, just wear a suit. Meimei is the bride, so you need to change at least two. Are you wearing wedding dresses or something? Tang suits are also popular now, does Meimei want to wear a cheongsam?"

"...I'll ask her again." Tu Hai didn't dare to say that Lin Mei planned to make up with the little dresses at home (there were several sets, enough for a change), and at the most she would do some makeup and make up her head: wearing strapless in winter The wedding dress with bare arms is too much to suffer.And it’s a bit of a pity to buy a piece of clothing that you only wear once.

Mother Tu asked again: "Where are you planning to go on your honeymoon?"

This Tuhai has a reason: "Meimei is pregnant with a child, so she won't go."

Tu's mother said: "Oh, that's fine, then go after the baby is born, and then mother will give you money."

"We have money, we have money." Tu Hai hung up the phone sweating, and hurried to talk to Lin Mei about the wedding dress.

Just in time, Mother Lin heard from the side and said, "How can you not wear a wedding dress? Once in a lifetime, wear it!"

"It's a bit cold." Lin Mei said.

"It's not cold in the hotel. Just wear a coat outside, not to mention there is a car." Mother Lin thinks this is a good solution.

When no one was around, Tuhai said quietly, "Why don't you just wear it, it doesn't cost much."

He felt sorry for Lin Mei a little bit, and having a wedding should be a happy thing, but Lin Mei was always thinking of ways to save money.He held Lin Mei's hand and looked at the ring on her hand that she had worn for three years. She should be tired of looking at it after so long. Isn't it good for jewelry to be changed frequently?
"And I should buy you a ring," he said.

"No need." Lin Mei withdrew her hand and said.

Mother Lin was on the phone in the living room, and the two took advantage of this time to hide in the room.It's been a long time since I've been alone together, it feels like it's been years.

The two sat on the bed together, leaning against the head of the bed, he put his arms around her, and they held hands.

"You really don't want to wear a wedding dress? This is the only time in your life." Tu Hai gently shook her shoulder and asked her softly.

After a pause, Lin Mei sighed and told the truth: "I think so. But good-looking wedding dresses are too expensive, and...beautiful ones are only a short distance away."

Is it less than 20 meters from the entrance of the hotel?

Wearable wedding dress is a kind of expectation, not the same.Even if she can only walk less than 20 meters in it, she still wants to wear it.

"And the ground is so dirty in winter. What if it's windy and snowy? The wedding dresses are all swayed, and it's very inconvenient to walk." Tu Hai heard her keep saying that wearing a wedding dress is bad and inconvenient, so the wedding dress is really no need.

He just asked, "Do you want it? Just buy one if you want it."

"Too expensive." Lin Mei immediately said firmly, shaking her head firmly: "No."

A better wedding dress costs more than 1 yuan. If she really has the money, why doesn't she change to a ring worth more than 1 yuan?At least it can hold its value.She can even save the ring, let alone the wedding dress.

"If you really want it, you will really spend too much money." Lin Mei put her rationality at the forefront and said with a long breath, "Now I can just take care of my side. I lost money a few years ago, This year, at least we won’t lose money, and the situation has opened up, and it looks like it. Your salary is only enough to live on, and the two of us will have to raise children in the future. You can’t spend all your money just to be happy for a while.”

In fact, Lin Mei's original plan was to focus on her career in the next few years, and wait until she can free up her hands to have children.But this child happens to be here now, and Lin Mei also feels that the situation is getting better now, which means that this child is also picked at a good time, not to mention that the parents should let them know. Fate with them.

But the situation is indeed not as good as it will be in a few years, so they can't relax now.

"You don't need a wedding dress, you don't need a ring." Lin Mei leaned on him and said, "We just need to be together."

Lin's mother secretly asked Tuhai: "Is there no money?" Before he could answer, she said, "Mom, I'll give it to you. Just finish the wedding properly."

Tuhai pressed Mama Lin's hand to draw out the card and said, "Mom, no, we can't use your money." He said, "I think the same as Meimei. We are not filial if we can't be filial by your side. We can no longer use your money, we are all adults."

"Forget about the ring, you can't live without a wedding dress." Mother Lin sighed, "My daughter won't even wear a wedding dress once she gets married?"

Tu Hai recalled Lin Mei's anticipation and patience when she talked about the wedding dress, and gritted her teeth and said, "I'll figure it out."

Mother Lin can't stay for long, there are so many things about the wedding there, she has to go back.

It was already November when Lin Mei and Tu Hai went to see her off, and the wind was biting cold outside.Mother Lin saw that Lin Mei was bound from head to toe, making it difficult for her to walk, so she had no choice but to say: "Why are you going to deliver it like this? No need to go. Stay at home, there is Tuhai."

Tu Hai also told Lin Mei not to go, he would watch his mother get into the car with his own eyes, and come back after the car drove.

The two took a taxi to the train station. Mother Lin asked Tu Hai, "You didn't want to buy a car?"

"Meimei said that it is too expensive to maintain a car, and their company rents cars when they go out." Tuhai said.

Ms. Lin wanted to sigh, her husband listened to her very much if nothing else was said by her own daughter.

After entering the station, Mother Lin took out a bank card and gave it to Tu Hai, "The password is Meimei's birthday. I prepared it for you before I came, and there is 5 yuan in it."

Tu Hai wanted to push it back, but was forced by Lin's mother, and said angrily, "You don't listen to my mother? Take it. I know it's difficult for you. You don't need to bring anything when you come back this time, just come back alone."

After the train left, Tuhai got out of the station and took the bus home. His mobile phone rang twice, and he opened it to see that it was a text message from the bank for remittance, which was also [-].

Then there was a text message from Papa Tu: You also have to set up a few tables over there, please invite your colleagues and bosses to go to a better hotel, don't be reluctant to pay.

Tuhai let out a long sigh and lowered his head.

Regarding the matter of wedding photos, Lin Mei has already thought of a solution, even the wedding dress.That is for rent.As for the wedding photos, we will take them ourselves, and after we finish the photos, we will P.Then there was someone on Taobao who helped to make a photo album, and now it’s all done.

Tuhai borrowed a colleague's camera, with a cameraman (colleague, photography enthusiast).

Lin Mei conceived several scenarios, and went to shoot in the empty house in Tuhai, because there were few furniture there, only the master bedroom was painted, and the rest of the living room and another small study room were still made of cement.Because of the location of this house, they didn't come to live here, but they didn't plan to rent it out either.After Lin Mei rented the house in her hometown, she couldn't live in it. They planned to live in this house if the elderly on both sides took it over in the future, so it was left vacant for the time being.

When the photographer saw it, he said: "There is an artistic conception!"

Lin Mei nodded: "I think so too!" The most important thing is that it doesn't cost money!

She changed into a wedding dress, with two electric heaters next to her, and to keep warm, she wore thermal pants inside, and around her neck was the extra-long scarf that Tuhai gave her.There is no need to do hair, just wear a woolen hat.The fake curly hair looks nice when it hangs down.

The photographer praised: "This white gauze goes well with the red scarf! It's eye-catching!"

The floor was covered with plastic sheeting and quilts. Lin Mei stood on the quilts and posed, and sat down when she was tired from posing for a while.

After Lin Mei took the photo, Tu Hai added it. At this time, the photographer was already shooting, saying that the bride's body is very connotative and artistic. "Your wife is pretty good at taking pictures by herself, and I feel very good when I take pictures! How come it becomes cheap when you add it in?" The photographer touched his chin and waved his hand: "You don't need to take pictures."

Tu Hai rolled up his sleeves: "Say it again? You said I don't need to take wedding photos anymore?"

The photographer was also very embarrassed, "Really, I didn't feel it as soon as you came in!"

Finally, at the mercy of the photographer, Tuhai unbuttoned his suit, unbuttoned his tie, undid his tie, rolled up his sleeves, scratched his hair a little more, and made his face a little grayer.

"It would be better to add some bloodstains, scars and so on." The photographer was still thinking, but looking at Tu Hai, he immediately changed his words and said, "But it's okay if the conditions don't allow it."
