Fall in love with your enemy
Chapter 144 Engagement (Part )
After the last time, the banquet in Jinhai was over, and I was shocked when William came out halfway. Stabilizing the situation was no longer the best option. Anyway, others would be suspicious of them, so it was better to make things real. The rapid engagement between Gao Xinci and I was like this, unexpected and reasonable.
It was unexpected that the Fu family and the Gao family would get married as soon as William came.
The two families had a marriage contract, which was reasonable.
We quickly arranged the wedding that should have been postponed for another two years, and clearly told the Jinhai business community that big trouble was coming. Our Fu family would not personally give them orders or anything, and would only use the engagement banquet to see what they wanted. Do you want to take sides, or do you want to stay out of it.
William went to hold a birthday party for his wife as usual. It was up to you to choose which one of the two parties to go to, or whether to go to both.
Gao Xinci drank too much and acted like crazy and tormented me for a long time. In the early morning of the next day, I went to have dinner with my elders with dark circles under my eyes. Gao Xinci was still in a daze and almost had food in his nose when he ate, so this I was the only one who could bear the intense pressure at the dinner table...
With my cousin's resentful eyes, I always felt that the next second he would rush up and stab Gao Xinci, and then lock me in the basement and never let me see the "flower thief" again, and Lu Chengcheng...
Wait, Lu Chengcheng?
"What the hell! Am I pretty?" I pinched Lu Chengcheng secretly.
Yaoshou, it’s okay for my cousin to care about me. What’s wrong with him? As a super evil villain, can my savage, unreasonable, and willful sister be bullied by my younger brother? !
Not to be outdone, Lu Chengcheng picked up a piece of green vegetables and ate it while rolling his eyes at me: "It looks good. It's limited to panda eyes, so you don't even need to put on eye makeup."
"Then thank you so much. I don't wear much makeup." I pursed my lips and took out a mirror under the table to take a look. It was exactly what he said, and I felt sad.
"There's no need to worry too much about my appearance. Look at me, I'm not much better than you." Lu Chengcheng suddenly said again. I looked up at him, and then I realized that he also had dark circles under his eyes, which shocked me.
"I didn't sleep well, what are you doing here? Didn't Gao Xinci say you fell asleep on the spot?" I asked in a lowered voice.
Lu Chengcheng had a resentful look on his face, but it was hard to get angry in front of his elders. He glanced at me, who was minding his own meal, and said very calmly: "You also know that I only act drunkenly after I wake up, Gao Xin Ci also drank so much of it that I got up at two o'clock in the morning, and I stopped making noise half an hour ago."
"what……"
My face turned pale, and I glanced back at the uncles and aunts who were assigned to take care of Lu Chengcheng's daily life. It was so miserable that I could even fall asleep standing up.
"If you can't drink it, then don't drink it. I've warned you before. If you don't bother others, you will feel uncomfortable yourself." As I said this, I grabbed Lu Chengcheng's arm and squeezed it. It was hot! "Why is it so hot? I told you not to drink unless necessary. You are slightly allergic to alcohol. Can you please pay attention to it?"
"How do you know I'm allergic?" Lu Chengcheng suddenly tilted his head, frowning and looking puzzled, "I didn't even know I was allergic, I thought I just couldn't drink it."
Only then did I realize that I had said too much. The reason for Lu Chengcheng's allergy was that he drank too much after a cocktail party in his previous life. He had a high fever and barged into my room talking nonsense in the middle of the night. Old Fu and Lu Yinyin were not at home. I dragged him to the hospital by myself. From then on, even if it was an emergency, I would not allow him to drink more than one bottle.
Because he always annoys me when he drinks too much! He's not looking for anyone else! Even after I got married, he wouldn’t let me go! As long as he is willing to run home to find his mother, I will not ignore him!
but now……
"During the physical examination at school, I asked someone to check one more thing for you, just by the way." I prevaricated, then turned aside to chat with my uncle.
At noon, Old Fu's second uncle, younger brother-in-law, and mother-in-law didn't come to eat. He even went to the ancestral hall with his second grandma and third grandma. Several people discussed it. In the afternoon, they told us juniors the result: they will return this afternoon. Linjiang, settled down at night. In three days, it will be the wedding banquet in Linjiang. According to the news, William is also going to Linjiang to do things.
The old man said that William will not act easily when he is not crazy, and we cannot provoke him. Therefore, Xin Ci and I only need to familiarize ourselves with the engagement process and learn the Gao family etiquette these days, while my cousin must restrain himself. Temper, do not take the initiative to provoke, and will not be instigated by others. During this period, Chengcheng is responsible for taking care of the internal and external affairs of the home.
After Chengcheng said this, the old man looked at me specifically, his expression was indescribable, I smiled bitterly, I was afraid that this was what I had said before.
I nodded to the old man, turned away and felt sad secretly. I looked sideways at Chengcheng's appearance. He was so surprised. He has always been a proud person. He thought that his hard work was finally rewarded. Although he became a member of this family The child was not what he originally wanted, but now that he has come, he will be happy with it, and he will continue to live in the future. Of course, he hopes to accept it.
But God, I really can't tell him what the truth is now. He will blame me.
I didn't have time to wander for long. My mother-in-law had already come over and pulled Xin Ci and I aside. She handed us a wedding process and brought two older aunts from nowhere to take us to a spacious We went to the room to learn etiquette. Deng Ying stood guard at the door of the room and didn't let us out until nightfall.
I was required to be present at the wedding of the Gao family, and I had nothing to say to learn more. I could only stay for a long time in accordance with my mother-in-law's wishes. On the way back to Linjiang, I also held the process book and read it until I returned to Fu. Home.
I sent a message to Liang Sen, asking him to keep an eye on Zheng Lin in the near future and not to let her come out to cause trouble. She was not allowed to leave the house until the wedding was over.
I put down my phone and fell asleep.
The three days were very short and passed quickly. I got up early in the morning for the Linjiang wedding, put on decent makeup, and put on the Song Dynasty colorful embroidered dragon and phoenix double-breasted scarlet sleeve shirt prepared for me by the Gao family. With the support of my brothers, Going out from Fu's house, I got on the sedan chair, with the golden curtain thrown down, and was carried step by step into Gao's house. Through the red gauze hijab, I saw Gao Xinci riding a tall horse in front.
This appearance is much grander than the wedding in my previous life.
In my previous life, I was not even qualified to wear the Chinese wedding clothes prescribed by the Gao family and the Fu family. Now I am so extravagant just for getting engaged.
I went to the old residence of the Gao family. The banquet hall was prepared early. However, I had to go to the Showa Hall of the Gao family first to pay homage to the elders of the Gao family.
In front of the door, I was helped down from the sedan chair. Gao Xinci held my hand tightly and said to me, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
With his words, even if there were mountains of swords and seas of fire ahead, I was no longer afraid. I held him tightly and accompanied him step by step into the house.
The Zhaohe Hall was tidied up, and all the extra tables and chairs were removed, leaving only the position of the head of the fifth room of the Gao family, with the mother-in-law sitting in the middle and smiling slightly.
The second master's face was very embarrassed. The third master and he were in the same group for the time being, so the scene would certainly not be good-looking. However, fourth uncle Gao was vaguely happy. He was a clan brother of his mother-in-law, but besides being smart, he was also naturally timid and timid. Even happiness is hidden, and Master Wu is indeed smiling, but that smile is also very intriguing.
I haven't had much contact with Mr. Wu, and I don't know much about him as a person. I only know that on the surface, he seems to be more willing to keep things peaceful at home, but my arrival probably doesn't go as he wishes.
In this life, I met him for the first time. The original fifth master passed away and he got the position of head of the family. Gao Xinci announced in public that I was his fiancée.
The second time I met him was today, and I officially became the daughter-in-law of the Gao family.
He caught a glimpse of me peeking at the situation, and he happened to meet my eyes. I hurriedly avoided it. The fifth master didn't intend to find any trouble for me. He just smiled in vain, raised the teacup in front of him and took a sip.
The fourth uncle Gao was chosen as the etiquette officer. At the signal from my mother-in-law, he stood up from his seat and quickly moved to her side. Following the steps in the process, Gao Xin and I said goodbye, had a drink, and drank wine. , and other wedding etiquette, but after that I have to change clothes quickly and change into a simple cheongsam dress, otherwise, today will really become a wedding.
"Before twelve o'clock, we have to see enough supporters come to the wedding banquet. Today is also the day when William's side holds a banquet." After changing clothes, Gao Xinci hugged me tightly in the dressing room. Said calmly.
This is a big gamble, but we all have to do it. Victory or failure depends on this.
When it was eleven o'clock, the guests came one after another. Gao Xinci and I hurried to the banquet hall to prepare to welcome the guests. Jinglei came over early again and guarded the door. When one came, she sent her message in advance. News tells me one.
The number of guests was not small, but most of them were small businessmen. There was no news about the really important companies in Linjiang for the time being. I was inevitably a little tormented. It took another ten minutes before I heard the shouting outside. After a while, Jinglei hurriedly sent me another message:
"Shishi! Han Lu and Hou Xiangyang are here!"
Half an hour later, Zhao Kanhai came again with great fanfare, followed by several other friends in the class who were playing well. Jinglei was still very surprised when she sent the message.
I showed the news to Gao Xinci, and he could only shake his head helplessly.
Why don't I understand that in this situation, there is a difference between the friendship between adults and children, but Zhao Guanhai and the others didn't take it seriously, and they just looked at me and Gao Xinci with "contempt".
"Hey! You two are very capable. The teacher said that if you have the ability, you two will get engaged. Regardless of whether you two fell in love early, I didn't expect that you are really committed! You two are the first to get married among the brothers!" Zhao Kanhai pulled his brother. They laughed and said, everyone looked very happy.
Oh, that’s not right. There are also unhappy people, such as Hou Xiangyang, who was crying with snot and tears next to me.
"Woooooo...goddess! I'm here to see you off..."
The muscles on my face suddenly twitched: "It's not a brother. I'm engaged. I'm not dead. Can't you just stop crying in a hurry?"
"I'm sorry for myself..." After crying, he stared at Gao Xinci for a long time with his swollen eyes, pointed at him and shouted: "Gao Xinci! Take good care of my goddess!" Not there, otherwise...I won't let you go even if I'm a ghost, wuwuwu..."
"Oh, oh, ok, ok, I know, I will have a baby with Shi Shi Baiyunhaohe soon." Gao Xinci winked and said, of course Hou Xiangyang knew this was a provocation and cried even harder.
"Hey, Lao Hou! Why are you crying? There are so many beauties in the world, not just Sister Fu. Besides, they are in love with each other. Don't get involved in the big wedding. Let's go! Let's go drink and get drunk. Relieve a thousand worries!" Zhao Kanhai and his brothers came forward and put their arms around Hou Xiangyang's shoulders.
"Then...I'll only drink what you keep under the tree at home." Hou Xiangyang said pitifully, but as soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Kanhai nervously blocked his mouth.
After looking around and finding that no one was paying attention, Zhao Kanhai dared to punch Hou Xiangyang hard in the stomach: "You brat, you're going to repay a favor with a grudge. Can you please keep your voice down? It's my father's treasure. If he finds out, I stole half of it for him and he had to beat me to death with a belt!"
Complaining bitterly, Zhao Kanhai pulled Hou Xiangyang and a group of brothers away with a sad face. When they got to the seats where they were supposed to sit, it was very lively, while Gao Xinci and I continued to wait.
The old man changed into a simple suit and came out. He looked more refreshing and handsome than usual. I quickly went up to help him straighten his tie.
"How are you, my dear daughter? Today is a life-and-death day, are you afraid?" Old Fu asked in a low voice with a smile.
I shook my head: "I'm not afraid, Dad. Looking at you like this, you've already prepared your cards, right? You're not afraid, so what should I be afraid of?"
"I'm getting more and more careful." The old man touched my head and sighed softly: "There are six families in Linjiang who can talk to each other. Gao, Zhao, Fu, Han, Hou, and Chen. Now we The marriage between the Gao family and the Gao family will definitely be like grasshoppers in the same boat in the future. The Zhao family and your brother-in-law have quite a friendship. In addition, Lao Zhao’s precious single seedling is here today, so he will definitely not be absent, and the Hou family will also be there. Similarly, Mr. Hou is reluctant to let his sweet grandson fight alone. He just made a phone call and is already on the way. As for the Chen family, they are also engaged to our Shuchen family. If they want to stay out of it, it is too late now. Only the Han family is left. , but five of the six are on our side, so whether Mr. Han comes or not is no longer very important."
"Aunt Han probably won't be able to come. Lulu just told me that our family was too anxious for the wedding banquet. She didn't change the time. I don't know if I can make it for the flight this afternoon." I said solemnly, "Dad, although Aunt Han can't come, she must be on our side. Lulu is her only daughter. She is here and brings valuable gifts. Of course she is here to express the Han family's feelings."
"Of course I understand this. Dad is worried about the elders' affairs. Just don't be afraid." Old Fu gently squeezed my shoulder.
"I'm not afraid either." Gao Xinci poked his head over mischievously.
"Bad boy." Old Fu had no choice but to smile bitterly and pat his head.
Hearing what the old man said, I was somewhat relieved and looked at each other and smiled at Gao Xinci.
But, the next second, we couldn't laugh anymore.
The etiquette officer outside the old residence of the Gao family shouted: "Heyun Chairman William and his wife are here to congratulate us."
Everyone present looked out in astonishment.
