“Good, good!”
Qin’s mother didn’t hesitate and took the red envelope. This marriage was considered settled.
The onlookers were also happy. This son-in-law was clearly young and wealthy. Qin Huai Ru could marry so well, maybe they could also benefit from it.
Qin Huai Ru didn’t shy away either, she was happy at this moment.
At this time, Qin Huai Ru’s father, Qin Chang Chun, spoke, “Li Wu Wei, you didn’t tell Huai Ru clearly about your family situation.”
Good heavens, Li Wu Wei didn’t believe that she wasn’t told clearly. Was she going to show off again?
It wasn’t impossible. He didn’t even need to act, he just needed to state the facts.
“My family only has me left. I work at the Rolling Steel Mill, a regular worker, earning thirty-three yuan a month.”
After he said this, although everyone thought it was pretty good, it shouldn’t be such a big deal, right?
Qin Huai Ru couldn’t hold it in anymore, she added, “Li Ge’s maternal grandfather used to own a dried fruit shop in Beijing’s Dong Liuli Chang.”
That was an old brand, established since the Qianlong period. Back then, the shop alone had dozens of clerks, and it also had a factory.
After his maternal grandfather passed away, he left all his property to Li Ge, including the three large storefronts. In the future, just the rent would be a lot of money.”
“Hiss!”
Everyone in the Qin family felt a bit dizzy, this was a big windfall!
Someone couldn’t help but ask, “Is it the dried fruit shop that sells sour plum soup, candied fruit, hawthorn, and dried apricot? Oh, that is an old brand in Beijing, very famous.”
“I’ve heard of it too. My father used to go to the city, he passed by it and talked about it for a while when he came back.”
“That’s amazing. Back then, our old Qin family’s son-in-law would be the owner!”
Everyone began to discuss, that old brand was really something else.
Li Wu Wei had something more important left by his maternal grandfather, which was given to him before his death. It was the recipe for the dried fruits sold by the shop.
So he wasn’t worried at all. With this century-old secret recipe, he would eventually get rich.
Qin Huai Ru continued, “My maternal grandfather also left Li Ge a large courtyard with three sections, with dozens of rooms.”
When she said this, everyone gasped again. With such a good family background, he actually fell for Qin Huai Ru. It had to be said that people’s luck was really good.
“Brother-in-law, do you have any dried fruit at your house?”
Suddenly, a little girl with twin pigtails approached, looking greedy.
Qin Huai Ru quickly introduced, “This is my third uncle’s daughter. Her name is almost the same as mine, Qin Jing Ru.”
Li Wu Wei was stunned for a moment. This little girl in front of him was actually Qin Jing Ru. Taking a closer look, her features vaguely resembled the one in the TV show.
“Of course I have dried fruit. When you come to my place, you can eat your fill.”
He smiled and patted Qin Jing Ru’s head. This girl would be pretty when she grew up, the key was that she was obedient.
Qin’s relatives stayed for a while before leaving. However, the close relatives, his second uncle and third uncle’s families, stayed for dinner, which was considered the engagement banquet.
“Brother-in-law!”
“Brother-in-law!”
Qin Huai Ru’s two younger brothers came forward, the elder named Qin Guang Ming, the younger named Qin Guang You.
The two brothers looked at him with a bit of fear, but also a desire for closeness. They knew this brother-in-law was very rich.
“Well, you two, come to the city to play sometime, come to my place.”
Li Wu Wei just made empty promises. Anyway, when they got to the city, it would be Qin Huai Ru who would be cooking and such. He wouldn’t be able to do it. Otherwise, why marry Qin Huai Ru? Wasn’t it for her ability to do things?
In the evening, the Qin family prepared two tables. Li Wu Wei had two cups and pretended to be drunk. After experiencing being drunk and transmigrating, he dared not get drunk.
He was afraid that next time it wouldn’t be transmigration, but directly passing out.
After the guests left, Qin Huai Ru brought water for him to wash up. Only then did he realize, “Where am I sleeping tonight?”
“Guang You’s room, I will clean it up later. Li Ge, after we get to the city, we’ll be together. It’s not convenient at home.”
Qin Huai Ru was a bit red-faced. But in their family, or rather, in this village, there was a rule that a son-in-law could only sleep separately from his wife, even if they were married for many years.
“Okay!”
Li Wu Wei didn’t insist, he was also worried about not being able to perform.
The next day, when he woke up, Qin Huai Ru had already packed her bags. She was really eager.
After breakfast, he didn’t hesitate, directly changing his address, “Dad, Mom, I’ll take Huai Ru away now. When we get to the city, we’ll go get the marriage certificate.
After we settle in, we’ll pick a good day to have a wedding banquet. I’ll cover all the expenses. We’ll also invite you to the city then.”
“Good, we’re relieved to leave Huai Ru to you.”
Qin’s mother and father were very happy. Their daughter married so well, they also had face.
Li Wu Wei pushed his bicycle and Qin Huai Ru on the road. They had to go outside to find a road.
Many people from the Qin family came out to see them off.
Qin Jing Ru waved her hand, “Brother-in-law, remember to take me to the city to play.”
“Okay, I’ll take you next time.”
Li Wu Wei smiled and didn’t take it seriously. He didn’t have time to take care of a little girl, he didn’t even want to bring his own child.
That’s right, he planned to have a few years of quiet life before having a child with Qin Huai Ru.
Otherwise, he was only twenty-three years old, turning twenty-four next year, it would be too early to be a father. He was still a child himself.
Qin Huai Ru hugged her bundle with a happy face, sitting in the back seat. She was thinking that her good days were about to come.
Li Wu Wei kept his promise. After arriving in the city, he took Qin Huai Ru to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get their marriage certificate.
The certificate now was just a handwritten piece of paper, with their names and ages on it, that was all.
“Qin Huai Ru, you are my woman now.”
“Okay, Li Ge, I’ll listen to you from now on.”
Qin Huai Ru felt relieved after receiving the marriage certificate. She had married into the city, and she had married so well, making the whole village envious. From now on, she was a city dweller.
“Come on, let’s go to the small courtyard. I have something to tell you.”
Li Wu Wei took her to the small courtyard left by his maternal grandfather. After putting down their luggage, he immediately took Qin Huai Ru to buy a set of new household items, including quilts and so on.
This was naturally self-evident, they had already gotten the marriage certificate, it couldn’t be cold in bed in winter.
