Han Yi took Lin Wan to the mall, saying they were getting married and wanted to buy her some clothes.
Lin Wan shook her head, as the clothes sold outside weren’t as nice as the ones she made herself.
In the end, Lin Wan pulled him into a silver shop, asking the old shopkeeper to make two rings for them from silver. Gold was too expensive, so they chose pure silver, weighed the grams, and spent a total of sixty-six dollars. This number was auspicious. Lin Wan didn’t haggle and paid the deposit, agreeing to pick them up the next day.
"I’ll give you my savings account book when we get home," said Lin Wan, worried he might not have enough money since Han Yi paid for today’s wedding photo shoot and rings.
Han Yi shook his head, "No need, I still have some on me."
It was too hot, so they didn’t plan to stroll around further, as the families needed to discuss the wedding date. Han Yi suggested that Lin Wan’s family come to their home to discuss since they had already registered their marriage, and his mom and brother didn’t even know where they lived.
Lin Wan nodded in agreement. When she got home in the evening, she told Liang Hongmei about the day’s events.
Liang Hongmei agreed, and the next morning, she had Lin Yinghui take them to the mall to buy some gifts. The three then paid a visit.
Lin Wan’s family were outsiders here, without any relatives around. On Han Yi’s side, only Uncle Jin and his wife were there to help today.
Liang Hongmei was quite puzzled. When the children of both families are getting married, whether it’s engagement or wedding, family relatives usually show up, but since Xiao Wan and Xiao Han’s engagement, they only saw Han Yi’s Grandma and that couple next door. They seemed to be neighbors.
Although Liang Hongmei was puzzled, she didn’t ask. Grandma was aged and heavy, and Aunt Jin prepared the lunch.
"Our Xiao Yi has only a week off, dear in-laws, how does the day after tomorrow sound for the wedding?" Grandma smiled, sitting beside Liang Hongmei.
"Isn’t the day after tomorrow too rushed?" Liang Hongmei, hearing Han Yi only had a week’s leave, felt somewhat displeased. With such a short holiday, he’d often be away, leaving her daughter as if she were widowed.
"Sis, we’ve checked, the day after tomorrow is a good day," chimed in Aunt Jin from the side.
"Xiao Yi and Xiao Wan are officially married now; it’s only a formality. I’m eager for my niece-in-law to come in."
"Since Grandma suggests it, let it be the day after tomorrow. We’re from the south and don’t know the local customs, so please, guide us if there’s anything amiss, dear in-laws." With the marriage certificate signed, Liang Hongmei wasn’t bothered about when the wedding should be held.
"We don’t have many relatives, nor do your side, so Xiao Yi suggests both families hold the wedding together, find a restaurant for the banquet; how do you feel about that?"
"That sounds great, we have no objections," they noted, suggesting their hotpot restaurant. Han Yi disagreed, preferring to find a place himself.
Lin Wan knew that if they had it at their restaurant, her brother definitely wouldn’t charge them. It was better to find another restaurant.
After the families had made arrangements, Liang Hongmei took the children home, and in the afternoon, her brother went to a carpenter’s place to have a wardrobe and dressing table brought home, then went to the distillery to find Li Congnan to wait for the groom’s side to bring over the wedding gifts the next day.
As for the wedding gifts, there wasn’t much spectacle on the bride’s side, but when the groom’s car arrived, Lin Yinghui set off a string of firecrackers outside.
Helping to carry items wrapped in red paper onto the car.
Han Yi found three tricycles today. Two wardrobes, a bicycle, bedding, a radio, clothes, and his study materials. They packed everything in.
