Xia Guangyu was silent and didn't say a word.
Sometimes, for some things, it is easier to be stubborn than to bow your head.
Peng Ling didn't bother to talk to him, so she tidied herself up the next day and set off for S city.
Before leaving, Xia Guangyu sat on the sofa to read the documents, glanced at her casually, and said in a low voice, "A traitor to the revolution."
Peng Ling stopped holding the bag, turned her head to look at him, and said with a smile, "How many years have passed since the reform and opening up, and you are still making revolution? You deserve to be abandoned by the times."
Xia Guangyu: "...??"
"I'm so proud of my son, he did what you thought was impossible."
"... How many times do you want to mention it?" Xia Guangyu, who was repeatedly slapped in the face, felt very stuffy.
"So you have to understand that your thoughts are not necessarily right, and your son is not necessarily wrong."
"Go quickly, stop nagging." Xia Guangyu stood up and went upstairs.
When Peng Ling arrived in City S, she had a meal with her son and daughter-in-law's family.
During the dinner, Peng Ling said: "Old Xia has such a stubborn temper, he can't help but refuse to come over."
Gu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "It's okay, time will change people's minds."
Gu Zhiyuan's business has been getting better and better these years, and has reached a new level. For the Xia family, although they were dissatisfied with Xia Guangyu's stubbornness, they also understood his behavior. After all, he was an old classmate and old friend. When he went to sea, he was quite critical, thinking that he should enter the system.
The next day, Gu Siyi and Xia Zhijun sent Peng Ling away together. Before leaving, Peng Ling took Gu Siyi to the mall and bought her a few things. When passing by a baby product store, he said, "In fact, you can buy these first and get ready."
Gu Siyi's eyes lit up, and she said, "Okay, let's go shopping."
Xia Zhijuan grabbed his wife in time, and said helplessly to his mother, "It's too early, I haven't conceived yet..."
A passer-by was holding a baby, and Peng Ling couldn't help but look at it a few more times, and said, "When you give birth to the baby, it must be very cute."
Gu Siyi smiled and nodded: "I also think that it must be invincible and cute! Invincible is beautiful!"
Xia Zhijun: "..."
Are the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law putting pressure on him to have a baby
During the meal, Peng Ling said: "You two, shouldn't we have a wedding?" She then accused Xia Zhijun, "It's been three years since you married someone home, and you still haven't held a wedding for him, so wait until you have a baby?"
Gu Siyi hurriedly explained: "No, this is what we discussed, and we should put our career first."
"I've been working hard on my career for three years, and it's on track now. I can take a breather and take care of the housework." Peng Ling said to Xia Zhijun earnestly, "If you don't hold a decent wedding, how can you explain to your father-in-law?"
Xia Zhijuan: "I know, the wedding is already in preparation, it will take a lot of time..."
Gu Siyi showed embarrassment, "But at the wedding, if Dad is absent, it's not good..."
Peng Ling hurriedly said: "Don't worry, he will definitely come. Marriage is such an important matter, he still has a sense of proportion."
When Peng Ling returned home, she acted nonchalantly, and did not take the initiative to chat with Xia Guangyu.
But Xia Guangyu couldn't hold back anymore, and took the lead in bringing up the topic the next day, "Did you ask the two of them when they plan to have a wedding? When will they have a baby?"
Peng Ling said, "I don't know."
Xia Guangyu accused: "You are a mother, don't you care about such big things?"
Peng Lingyun said calmly, "As a father, don't you also ignore them?"
Xia Guangyu: "..."
Peng Ling said: "If you really worry about them, you can make a phone call and ask them yourself. They will hold the wedding ceremony, and the groom's parents will not be there when the time comes. Isn't it a joke?"
Xia Guangyu didn't say a word, but a few days later, when he was in the office one day, he suddenly called Xia Zhijun by a strange coincidence.
Xia Zhijuan was walking out after the meeting, and was slightly taken aback when he saw his father's call.
This number has not rang for several years.
After a few seconds, he picked up the phone.
"Busy?" Xia Guangyu asked.
"It's okay." Xia Zhijun replied.
"If you're not busy, hurry up and organize the wedding and give birth to the child."
Xia Zhijun: "..."
"When you have a child, you will know that being a parent is not easy."
"..."
"Hurry up and put the wedding on the agenda, I can arrange time here."
Xia Zhijuan was stunned for a few seconds before realizing that it was his father who took the initiative to break the ice, so he responded, "Okay, I see."
After hanging up the phone, Xia Zhijuan was still a little dazed.
He thought that he took these things very lightly, no matter what they said, it would not affect his decision.
However, when his parents let go of their stubbornness and prejudice and took the initiative to communicate with him, he actually... felt pretty good.
After Xia Zhijuan returned home, he told Gu Siyi about the phone call.
Gu Siyi said: "So he is telling us that he will come to the wedding?"
"En." Xia Zhijuan nodded.
"So, this is a signal of release and reconciliation?"
"more or less."
Xia Zhijuan knew his father well, if he still held prejudices, he would not be able to make this call, let alone attend the wedding.
"Then let's find a time, bring a gift, and go to your house." Gu Siyi suggested.
"Are you willing?" Xia Zhijuan asked Gu Siyi seriously.
"Why don't you want to? They are your parents. Without them, where would you come from. At the beginning, they had different opinions. From their point of view, it was also for your own good." Gu Siyi smiled and hugged Xia Zhijun and said, "Now you have proved that You have made your own choice, we have a happy marriage, and your career is full of prospects. At this time, you should return to your hometown and let everyone see it."
Xia Zhijuan raised his hand and rubbed her head, "Honey, what do you say, what should we do."
So, Gu Siyi found a weekend vacation and went back to City C with Xia Zhijuan to visit Xia Zhijuan's parents.
After greeting Peng Ling in advance, the husband and wife are waiting at home, and the meals are ready.
After eating, everyone sat down and chatted in the living room, and the atmosphere was particularly harmonious. Although Xia Guangyu didn't talk much, he was as serious as before, but his eyes were gentler.
Three months later, Xia Zhijun and Gu Siyi's wedding was held on a foreign island.
A new couple and both parents have invited relatives and friends and other people who have a good relationship.
The night before the wedding, the bride hosts a girlfriends party night. The groom has a special entertainment with his buddies.
Gu Siyi, Zheng Peipei, Xiang Li, Zhang Xinyi, and some former female classmates sang and danced together.
According to the rules, the bride and groom cannot stay together on the first day of the wedding. Everyone plays in their own way.
Play until late at night, go back to the hotel room to rest.
Gu Siyi lay on the bed and received a call from Xia Zhijun.
"Wife."
"Well... husband..."
"Are you asleep?"
"Not yet, sleeping..."
"Miss me?"
Gu Siyi smiled, her eyes flickered in the void, "I think..."
"Then let me accompany you, okay?"
"It's not good... I'm the bride-to-be tonight, so get ready and marry me tomorrow."
"..." This girl, Xia Zhijuan smiled helplessly, and said in a gentle voice, "Well, you go to bed early, and you will be the most beautiful bride tomorrow, and wait for your husband to marry you home."
"Okay." She responded with a smile.
Listening to that sweet laughter, Xia Zhijuan was more exciting and addictive than alcohol.
"My wife I love you."
"Honey, I love you too."
After hanging up the phone, Gu Siyi fell asleep contentedly.
Zheng Peipei was still drinking at the open-air bar of the hotel. Both Xiangli and Zhang Xinyi went back to their room to sleep.
She couldn't sleep, tossed and turned, and simply came down to have a glass of wine.
"Still soaking here so late?" A familiar voice sounded.
Zheng Peipei turned her head to see that Lu Jiaye was sitting on the chair beside her.
"Are you envious, jealous, or hate? Your best friend has been married for three years and has a make-up wedding, and you are still a single dog who doesn't even have a boyfriend?" Lu Jiaye teased.
Zheng Peipei rolled his eyes, "What do you know? My current situation is that there are too many delicious fresh meats around me, and I am too picky. I would rather be trapped in this happy vortex than enter the siege."
"Tsk..." Lu Jiaye looked at her meaningfully, "Don't go against your own nature, after all, you like a domineering president, can Xiao Xianrou satisfy you?"
"Who said I like domineering presidents?" Zheng Peipei asked inexplicably.
Lu Jiaye leaned close to his ear and whispered, "You annoying little goblin, do you know you're playing with fire?"
"...???" Zheng Peipei looked at him in a daze. At that moment, the magnetic voice actually uttered this rotten line, making her blush.
Lu Jiaye rubbed his chin and said with a smile, "You wrote a short story, which was stored on your computer, and I installed the system for you once and saw it. This line is very profound and subtle, and the hero's domineering president's style is vivid on the paper. It's fresh in my memory."
Zheng Peipei exploded in embarrassment in an instant, and retorted, "I didn't write that! I copied it from an online article! What kind of domineering president...that's a sand sculpture!"
Lu Jiaye laughed while drinking.
Zheng Peipei felt a tinge of despair. She had been grasped by this person too much.
High school days, full of black history!
She tried her best to hide her embarrassment, and changed the subject forcibly, "Your buddies are all married, how many girlfriends do you plan to change?"
"You asked me where my dream is, I'm still young, I'm still young..." Lu Jiaye hummed softly.
"Go ahead." Zheng Peipei snorted, picked up the wine glass, and took a sip.
Lu Jiaye picked up the wine glass, clinked glasses with her, and took a sip slowly.
After all, they are old friends, who can chat with each other irrelevantly, and also can calm down and have a drink with their companions.
Another glass of wine fell into his throat, Lu Jiaye looked at the girl beside him, suddenly raised his hand, and smoothed her hair.
Zheng Peipei turned his head and stared at him, "What are you doing?"
Lu Jiaye said: "Tell me, if the two of us have not settled down at the age of 30, why not digest it internally?"
Zheng Peipei was puzzled for a few seconds, and asked with a trace of perplexity, "Internal digestion?"
Lu Jiaye looked at her, with a half smile on his face, and said in a very serious manner: "We don't need to harm others, so we clean up each other, isn't it good?"
Zheng Peipei was stunned for a moment, then reacted, and said with a light snort: "Come on, you two idiots are the scourge."
"What are you talking about, why don't you go to rest so late"
Su Han came slowly and sat on the other side of Zheng Pei.
