Chapter 105 Wedding
"Just take a look..." Lin Yuze was about to say what he agreed to, but he soon realized what the situation was. He rolled his eyes at Shen Minglei without any hesitation, "What are you thinking about? What day is today? Bring it here! I really don't want the wedding!"
He thought about it and came up with an idea. He asked his friend, "You said we were both born on the same day, so how about getting married on the same day? After all, it's a rare fate, isn't it?"
Lin Yuze's words stunned Shen Minglei, and then a bright smile appeared on his face.
"Oh, I was just kidding!" Shen Minglei patted Lin Yuze on the shoulder and said with a smile, "But if you get married on the same day, it will be a great event! We have to plan it carefully to make the wedding grand and interesting."
Lin Yuze listened to Shen Minglei's words, and his mind was slightly moved. He originally just had a temporary idea, but now the more he thinks about it, the more he feels... This idea seems to be very good!
"You're right. It would be a very meaningful thing if I could get married on the same day as Xiaoxi." Lin Yuze nodded with an excited smile on his face. "But I still have to discuss this with my girlfriend to see if she is willing."
Shen Minglei laughed and said, "Of course, this is a matter that you two have to decide together. But I believe that as long as you bring it up, your girlfriend will definitely agree.
"What are you talking about? You look so happy?" Lin Yuxi came over with Shen Minghui and asked casually when she saw that they were chatting so enthusiastically.
Lin Yuze saw his sister and future brother-in-law coming over, and hurriedly spoke of the idea just now, "We were just talking about wanting to hold a wedding with you, what do you think?"
Lin Yuxi opened her mouth in surprise, looking at Lin Yuze, then at Shen Minglei. These two people... what... what's going on?... Holding a wedding with them?... Is it progressing so quickly?
It’s just… isn’t it a bit too avant-garde?
Shen Minglei felt a little uncomfortable with his sister-in-law's scanning gaze, and unconsciously moved a little further away from Lin Yuze, explaining with a strong desire to survive,
"Sister-in-law, Brother Ze wants to schedule his wedding with his girlfriend on the same day as yours. I just agreed to help plan it!"
"Oh, so that's it!" Lin Yuxi exhaled lightly, knowing that she had been thinking in the wrong direction, and quickly pulled out the waste water in her brain and agreed, "Okay! But who are you going to marry, brother? Is it Xiaoling?"
Lin Yuze nodded and said, "Yes, it's her!" Thinking about what he told his sister last time, saying that she shouldn't say anything to harm others' innocence, he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. Was this considered a confession?
Haha, never mind, let’s get married first!
Shen Minghui didn't understand the situation and just sat there listening. As for whether or not to hold a wedding together, it was all up to his wife to decide!
"Well, what do uncle and aunt Zeng think about you and Xiaoling dating?"
Lin Yuze thought about the situations during these meetings and said, "You should be happy to see this happen, right? After all, our two families are close to each other, so we can always take care of each other if anything happens!"
Lin Yuxi nodded, indicating that she understood. She stood up and walked to Sun Li, telling her mother that her brother and Zeng Ling were dating and wanted to get married on the same day. Sun Li was surprised and happy after hearing this, and after a long while she said, "It's a good idea. You can hold one wedding banquet for two weddings. You really save trouble for me and your father!"
However, in this case, it would be obviously inappropriate to let the Shen family organize the wedding banquet. Moreover, holding two wedding banquets together would inevitably lead to comparisons. By the time the new bride is married, she would be full of resentment, which would be quite unpleasant.
Sun Li pondered for a moment and said to Lin Yuxi: "Yuxi, go talk to your brother and ask him to discuss with Xiaoling. Our two families will hold their own weddings, but on the same day. This will satisfy your wishes and avoid some unnecessary troubles."
Lin Yuxi nodded and turned to find Lin Yuze. After listening to her sister's words, Lin Yuze thought about it and felt that her mother's words made sense, so she went to discuss it with Zeng Ling. Zeng Ling also thought that this was a good idea, which could save some expenses and avoid some unnecessary comparisons and disputes.
Therefore, the two families decided to hold the wedding on the same day, but each family was responsible for their own wedding affairs. Both the Lin family and the Shen family began intensive preparations. Although they were busy, the faces of the two families were filled with happy smiles.
On the wedding day, the sun was shining brightly, and all the relatives and friends of the two families gathered together to witness this happy moment. Lin Yuze and Zeng Ling's wedding was held at the Lin family, while Shen Minghui and Lin Yuxi's wedding was held at the Shen family. Although the venues were different, the weddings of the two families were full of festive and warm atmosphere.
……
Lin Yuxi and Shen Minghui's wedding room was filled with the sweet atmosphere of their newlyweds. The two snuggled together, enjoying the rare tranquility and happiness. However, at the same time, there was a commotion at Lin Qifeng's house.
Lin Dahe sat on a bamboo chair in the main hall, frowning, playing with a yellowed pipe in his hands. His wife Liu Mei stood beside him, twisting her apron with both hands, looking very worried.
"His father, do you really want to take that kid Dong Da as our son-in-law?" Liu Mei finally couldn't help but ask.
Lin Dahe took a deep breath of cigarette and slowly exhaled, the smoke lingering in the air. "Although Dong Da has lost his parents and has been living with his uncle and aunt, he is hardworking and knows how to be grateful. With him around, we will have someone to take care of us when we get old."
Liu Mei sighed, "That's true, but Qifeng is a very ambitious girl who always wants to go to the city. How could she be willing to stay in the village?"
"Why would you not want to keep her? No matter how much you dislike her, she's grown up. Stop worrying about it. Once you have a child and settle down, everything will be fine!" Lin Dahe said as he stood up. "I'm going to the Dong family to discuss it now. The marriage should be settled as soon as possible so that we can feel at ease!"
As he said this, he picked up his pipe and strode out of the room.
At this time, Lin Qifeng was hiding in the room, with her ear pressed against the crack of the door, listening to her parents' conversation. Her heart was in a mess, with fear and anger.
Her parents had taken her to the city since she was a child and she had seen the prosperity and bustle there. How could she be willing to stay in this secluded village for the rest of her life?
She pushed the door open, rushed into the yard, and shouted to Liu Mei who was busy, "Mom, I won't marry Dong Da! I don't want to stay in this small village and spend my whole life facing the loess and back to the sky!"
Liu Mei was startled by the sudden voice. She turned around and saw Lin Qifeng standing there with a red face. Her heart sank.
"Qifeng, what's wrong with you? Your parents are doing this for your own good." Liu Mei tried to calm her daughter.
But Lin Qifeng simply couldn't listen, "For my own good? You only think about my retirement, when have you ever cared about my feelings? I tell you I don't agree, I will never, ever agree."
After saying that, she turned and ran back to her room, slamming the door shut. Liu Mei stood there, looking at her daughter's room, her eyes full of helplessness and worry.
That night, while her parents were asleep, Lin Qifeng quietly packed her clothes and money.
Her movements became faster and faster, her heart was filled with desire for the future and dissatisfaction with the status quo. She didn't want to be bound in this small village, she wanted to pursue her dreams and see a wider world.
Finally, she packed her clothes, sneaked into her parents' room, and took away some money. She knew it was wrong, but she didn't care about it anymore. She just wanted to escape from here and pursue her own happiness.
She gently opened the door, tiptoed through the yard, and came to the gate. She looked back at her sleeping parents, her heart filled with guilt and reluctance. But she still hardened her heart, pushed open the door, and disappeared into the night.
Lin Dahe and Liu Mei woke up the next day and found their daughter missing. They panicked and looked for her everywhere, but Lin Qifeng had disappeared without a trace.
At this time, Lin Qifeng had already set out for the city.
