The countdown to the ending [7] Now that you have received the certificate, you should also put the wedding(1/2)
"Mr. Xu had a physical check-up yesterday, and the hospital got the results today, saying he has advanced gastric cancer."
Bai Xiao's footsteps stagnated, and Yu Zhanming raised his eyelids and glanced at her back: "If she undergoes chemotherapy, she can live for another year and a half, but if - I'm afraid I won't be able to survive more than two months."
She knew that Yu Zhanming had said this to her on purpose. As for what his intentions were, she found that she suddenly didn't want to think about it any further.
When Bai Xiao went downstairs, Yu Shaoting had just arrived and took off his suit jacket and threw it on the back of the sofa.
Yu Jingxi was lying on the sofa, twirling a bunch of green grapes in his little chubby hands, eating the skin of the green grapes everywhere, occasionally giggling.
Mrs. Yu came out of the kitchen with a large pot of soup and called her youngest son to wash his hands and prepare for dinner.
Yu Shaoting unbuttoned the cuffs of his shirt and looked up to see Bai Xiao who had come down. Judging from her appearance, she was not in a very high mood and did not go to the bathroom immediately. After she came down, he walked over and looked down at her softly with a very soft voice.
Gentle: "What's wrong?"
"It's nothing. I'll tell you when I get home." Bai Xiao didn't want to ruin the lively and joyful atmosphere at home. He swept away the solemnity on his face, changed his smile, pushed him gently with both hands, and then rushed to the living room.
The little guy said: "Jing Xi, go wash your hands with your father."
Seeing that she didn't want to say anything, Yu Shaoting stopped asking and just held her shoulder comfortingly.
…
After dinner, Yu Zhanming came down and saw the third son and his wife sitting side by side. He put on his face again. When he saw Yu Jingxi, he immediately stretched out his hand: "Come to grandpa."
Ever since he learned about Yu Jingxi's birth, Yu Zhanming's feelings for this child have become more complicated. In addition to caring, he also feels distressed.
Holding Yu Jingxi on his lap, this veteran general with decades of experience asked his grandson with a kind expression what he wanted to eat.
Especially Yu Jingxi who had her hair cut off, her lips were red and her teeth were white, and she was soft and soft. Yu Zhanming felt soft. He was exactly the same as his mistress when he was a child.
Speaking of his youngest son, the bright smile on Yu Zhanming's face disappeared instantly.
When they were about to finish the meal, Mrs. Yu suddenly said: "This afternoon, Lan Ming and his sister-in-law were at home. They had an idea with me. Since the mistress and Xiaoxiao had already received the certificate, they should choose a time to make up for the wedding.
.”
When Bai Xiao heard the word 'wedding', she raised her head, and the old lady happened to ask her: "Xiao Xiao, do you prefer a Chinese-style wedding or a Western-style wedding?"
"..."
This topic came up so suddenly that Bai Xiao didn't know how to answer, so she turned to look at the man beside her.
Yu Shaoting's hand was already covering the back of her hand. His fingers were elegantly knuckled, and Bai Xi was slender under the light: "We will go back to discuss the wedding. In this regard, Mom has more experience than us. By then, I'm afraid,
I still have to trouble Mom."
Yu Shaoting's mouth tonight was as if it had been smeared with honey, saying "Mom" in every mouthful, which made Mrs. Yu beam with smiles and find herself lost.
Yu Zhanming coughed dryly and kicked his wife under the table.
Why didn't he know about the wedding?
As a result, Mrs. Yu's smile spread wide. As for the little actions under the table, she didn't care at all, and completely ignored Chief of Staff Yu.
…
After the report of Yizhou Weekly came out, the Yu family could also be described as "chaotic". During those two days, the old lady deliberately refused to let Bai Xiao come over.
The morning before, Mrs. Yu answered the phone, and the person on the other end asked: "What's going on? How did the third child's wife become the daughter-in-law of the Pei family?"
The next morning - "Third sister-in-law, someone asked me last night whether the deceased wife of the third child in our family is related to anyone in the Pei family. Is it true or false?"
On the third day - "The third child really seduced the widowed daughter-in-law of the Pei family in her early fifties?!"
On the fourth day, as soon as Pei Qiyou said, "My ex-wife is actually the adopted daughter of the Pei family," no matter how fierce the rumor was, it was self-defeating.
When Yu Lanming and Mrs. Yu Dabo came to the door, before they could say anything, Mrs. Yu took out a tissue and sniffed, and tears fell from her eyes. They were shocked on the spot. Then, Mrs. Yu
With runny noses and tears, she told her sister-in-law and sister-in-law that Bai Xiao was Yu Jingxi's biological mother.
After Yu Lanming and Mrs. Yu Da heard this, they looked at each other and couldn't digest the truth for a while.
But then they all thought that when Bai Xiao came to the house that time, Yu Jingxi protected her so much, which really shows that the bond between mother and son is unbreakable.
"Then why didn't she come find the child all these years?" Yu Lanming listened to Mrs. Yu's story and raised her doubts.
Old Mrs. Yu Da has already answered for her siblings: "This is understandable. Shuyuan was young when she passed away, so she was probably frightened. Who didn't make mistakes when they were young? She and her children have been separated in these years. I'm afraid this
I feel uncomfortable in my heart. Instead of pursuing the past, it is better to grasp the present."
Mrs. Yu nodded repeatedly at the side.
The thing that makes Mrs. Yu most relieved is that these media reports did not mention that Bai Xiao and Su Manrong are mother and daughter.
Then, the topic naturally turned to the wedding.
In Yu Lanming's words: "The two of them received their certificates in a dignified manner, so why didn't they hold a wedding? It happened to be a wedding banquet this time, and all the guests who should be invited were invited. It would be as lively as possible, and it would completely crush the outside world.
Those rumors!"
Mrs. Yu sent Yu Lanming and Mrs. Yu away, turned around, and excitedly flipped through the calendar to see what date was suitable for the wedding.
——————————
In the evening, after the family of three left the compound, Yu Zhanming called Mrs. Yu into the study and gave her a severe ideological education.
"Jiang Huizhi, can you live a more confused life?"
Yu Zhanming looked at his wife who was pouting his lips and thinking about the news he got in the afternoon. Xu Hongyang was seriously ill. Bai Xiao was not willing to see this grandpa yet. It was not easy to bring the matter of surrogacy to the table casually. Xu Shuyuan, Bai Xiao's cousin
, and she is his last daughter-in-law. Besides, the deceased is the oldest, what else can be said?
It seems like everything is going well, but in fact, there are still many conflicts that have not been resolved. Wouldn't having a wedding at this time add chaos to the wedding?
"You said it yourself, if you have a wedding now, where do you want Bai Xiao to get married?"
"Bai Xiao still refuses to admit Xu Liu. Everyone knows that she is a child of the Xu family. When the time comes, whose hand will she hold when entering the auditorium?"
"As for Shuyuan's parents, if you do this now, aren't you going to slap them in the face? At that time, it will only deepen the conflict between them!"
Mrs. Yu was a little unhappy: "Yu Zhanming, you can't blame me. It seems you were the one who was so anxious to hold a wedding for your son last time, right?"
Before he finished saying this, Yu Zhanming drove Mrs. Yu out of the study, slammed the door, and kept out of sight!
It was the last time, and he didn't know it at that time. Can it be compared with now?
——————————
On the other side, on the way back to Qinyuan, Bai Xiao looked out the window, feeling a little lost in thought.
Wedding, every woman has a dream when she is young, hoping to put on a beautiful wedding dress, sit in the room, and wait for the handsome groom to marry her.
She originally thought that she would never have the chance to wear a wedding dress again in her life.
The first time, something unexpected happened and the opportunity was missed. After that, she and Pei Qiyou tortured each other, and they had long lost their initial expectations for the wedding.
After registering with Yu Shaoting, the wedding was put on hold at the beginning because of too many worries.
…
At night, lying in Yu Shaoting's arms, Bai Xiao privately expressed her opinion on the wedding: "Actually, it's pretty good now."
"Why do I think you are so satisfied?" Yu Shaoting hugged her and tightened his arms.
Bai Xiao rested her head on his steady arm: "It's always happy to be content. Sometimes, the more greedy you are, in the end, you may lose even what you have now."
Therefore, she would rather be a little woman who is satisfied with the status quo.
If he was just an ordinary man and she was an ordinary second-married woman, she wouldn't mind having a wedding and entertaining friends and relatives from both parties.
But the actual situation is - he is the third son of the Yu family, and her identity is even more complicated. If a wedding is held, many relationships will be brought to light.
Moreover, in the eyes of some knowledgeable people, she is still the third party who ruined her cousin's marriage.
"Tell me, when the time comes, will someone throw eggs at my face?" Bai Xiao suddenly imagined the scene where she was wearing a wedding dress and being thrown rotten eggs, and found it interesting.
Yu Shaoting's big hand stroked her long, silky hair: "If you really want to do that, Jing Xi and I will stand in front of you."
Bai Xiao smiled, her head was suddenly turned around, and she looked into two deep black eyes. Yu Shaoting used the soft light to look at her beautiful and moving facial features. There was a peaceful smile on her lips, very
Easily satisfied, he lowered his head and kissed her gently on the forehead.
"This is what you should have. You are my wife. You should have a wedding. You don't have to think about others, just yourself and me."
This is a word that is more like a promise than a word of love.
Bai Xiao buried her head on his shoulder and looked past him to the window. The bright moonlight poured through the curtains onto the carpet. She blinked her eyes and smiled lightly, remembering herself when she was young.
Silly things I said.
She left his arms and sat up. Her soft black straight hair was pushed to her left shoulder. She smiled and looked at the man who was still lying there.
"You may not know that I was quite a nymphomaniac when I was very young. When I saw Moonlight Treasure Box, I was like other girls. I thought about what Fairy Zixia said all day long and felt that I was the best person in this world.
It is unique and should be able to charm many members of the opposite sex, and in the end, an excellent man will marry me home."
Yu Shaoting said nothing, but looked at her intently.
Bai Xiao smiled a little shyly, really like a little girl who was inexperienced in the world. She held his hand with slender fingers, small and delicate, holding his big hand. Her eyes on his face were affectionate and gentle.
: "I never expected that one day it would actually come true."
Yu Shaoting held her hand firmly and hugged her into his arms again: "In the middle of the night, you said something so sensational, are you confessing to me?"
