Chapter 675 Lu An Gets Married
Three days before Lu An's wedding, Uncle Lu, Aunt Lu, and Lu Jiayao and his party arrived in Sijiu City. Because everyone had a job, it was impossible for everyone to take leave to go back, so this wedding was held in Sijiu City instead of in their hometown.
Although Uncle Lu was over 70 years old, he was in high spirits because he was now in charge of supporting poor students. However, Aunt Lu's health was getting worse and worse. She was very pale after sitting on the train for three days.
Sister Lu ignored her objection and took her to the hospital for a full-body examination the next day. Fortunately, except for the known basic diseases, everything else was fine.
Aunt Lu asked: "Old wife, Xiao An will get married the day after tomorrow. Will Jiaxin come back?"
Sister Lu shook her head and said: "Jiaxin is busy with work and can't come back. There is nothing she can do about it. She manages so many companies, so she still has to put work first."
As for the quarrel between Lu Jiaxin and Lu Hongjun not long ago, she didn't say it. It's better for them not to interfere in the affairs of the father and daughter, so as not to say more and make more mistakes.
The eldest aunt asked, "The child got engaged last year, so she should get married this year, right?"
Mrs. Lu shook her head to indicate that she had not: "Mother, Jiaxin is not a child anymore, she knows her own business. When the date is set, we can prepare gifts at that time."
The eldest aunt is a very considerate person. Seeing that she avoided talking about Jiaxin, she frowned and asked, "What's going on? Did your third uncle make Jiaxin angry again?"
Mrs. Lu saw that she could not hide it, so she could only tell the story: "Alas, Jiaguang and I were originally going to invite Jiaxin to dinner at home the next day, and then talk about Lu An's marriage. Who would have thought that the third uncle would interfere?"
"I know that the third uncle means well, but his behavior can easily make Jiaxin feel Yes, he treats his nephews and grandchildren better than his daughter. Alas, Uncle San used to compromise, but now he is old and I don’t know what’s wrong with him. He always does stupid things. ”
Back in the room, Auntie told Uncle Lu about this: “Jia Xin has not let go of the past and still has resentment towards Lao San. His words will make this girl feel that Lao San doesn’t care about her at all, so she is showing displeasure. ”
Uncle Lu has no better way: “I will talk to Lao San about it tomorrow. Don’t worry about Jia Xin’s affairs, and don’t worry about the younger generation’s affairs. They don’t have many years to live, so just eat, drink and have fun. ”
It’s not like before now. I still have to rely on my daughter to support me, so I have to learn to bow my head and not meddle in other people’s business. He has three sons in his family, and he basically doesn’t care about them after they get married and start a family, unless they make mistakes.
Auntie nodded.
The Lu family is just a leader, and considering the impact, they only invited 20 tables. They didn’t go to the hotel, and the house was spacious enough to set up, so they purchased the ingredients themselves and invited two chefs to cook. Of course, the menus were all prepared by the two chefs, and they were very sumptuous.
The weather was good, and the sun was bright and cloudless on Lu An's wedding day, so there was no need to put up awnings for the two courtyards at home.
It was very tiring to host a banquet by yourself. After sending the guests away, the eldest aunt couldn't help but hit her waist: "Jiaguang, when Pingping and Azhang get married in the future, let's go to a restaurant?"
In fact, it is not more cost-effective to hold a banquet at home than to go to a restaurant, and people are exhausted. If the remaining three children are like today, she will be exhausted every time she holds a wedding banquet.
Lu Jiaguang smiled and said: "We are a little tired, but the house is lively, and relatives and friends are happy to eat. You don't have to worry, when Pingping or Azhang gets married, let your daughter-in-law help you with the arrangements."
In fact, Lu Jiazong and Lu Ersao also helped them a lot this time, otherwise they would be more tired than now. There are many brothers and sisters, and this is when it is good.
During dinner, Lu Jiazong suddenly said, "Brother, I saw on the gift list that Jiaxin gave a gift of 2,000 yuan."
Lu Jiaguang didn't know about this, he frowned and asked, "Uncle, what's going on?"
Whether it's Sijiu City or his hometown, according to custom, unmarried girls or boys don't have to give gifts. Yesterday, Xing Ziyang came to give gifts, and no one came today, so this gift money can only be related to Lu Hongjun.
Lu Hongjun said that he gave this gift money on behalf of Jiaxin, and the person didn't come back but the gift should be there, which is to save her face. The main thing is that he thinks Lu Jiaxin is now a billionaire, and her nephew got married without any expression. If it is spread out, people will say that she is stingy.
Lu Jiaguang immediately had a headache when he heard this, which is not a mess. Jiaxin is not married yet, what kind of gift is she giving? People who don't know would think that they are greedy for money!
Mrs. Lu took the initiative to apologize: "Uncle San, this is my fault, Jiaguang and I, we didn't explain it clearly to you. Jiaxin asked how much gift she should give, we told her that unmarried girls don't need to give gifts, so she gave Lu An and Xiaochan a set of gold jewelry and a pair of Pisces jade pendants."
The Pisces jade pendant symbolizes a happy marriage. The jade pendant is made of Hetian jade, and the workmanship is also very fine. Luo Chan likes it very much. However, the jade pendant is easy to be broken, so it can only be admired and dare not be worn.
Who would have thought that Lu Hongjun could do such a trick. And even if he wanted to save Jiaxin's face, he should have told his family, even Shanzi!
Lu Jiayao's wife had noticed the gold earrings and gold bracelets that Luo Chan was wearing. She originally thought that they were the dowry given by the Luo family: "Sister-in-law, Xiaochan's gold earrings and gold bracelets were given by Jiaxin?"
Sister-in-law Lu smiled and nodded: "Yes, Jiaxin gave me gold earrings, a gold necklace and a gold bracelet."
After receiving this gift yesterday, Lu An eagerly sent it to the Luo family. Because of the exquisite workmanship, Luo Chan liked it very much and wore it just to match the wedding dress.
Lu Jiayao was very envious: "Sister-in-law, Jiaxin really loves Pingping and Anan."
Uncle Lu felt that it was not appropriate to continue this topic and said, "Talk less during meals."
After dinner, Lu Jiaguang stuffed two thousand yuan back into Lu Hongjun's pocket. Lu Shan gave a gift money. He represented the third room. He could accept the wedding gift from Jiaxin, but he absolutely could not accept the gift money.
Seeing that he did not accept it, Lu Jiaguang said, "Uncle San, you should use the money Jiaxin gave you yourself in the future and don't give it to the children. It's okay for the older children to have money, but it's not a good thing for the younger ones to not know how to control themselves and always buy snacks and skip meals."
Qiangqiang is a precocious child. He never spends the money Lu Hongjun stuffed into him and saves it; Xiaofeng'er has poor self-control. When she has money, she buys her favorite candies. She gets cavities from eating too much candies.
Lu Hongjun said that he didn't know Jiaxin gave a gift, otherwise he would not give a gift.
Lu Jiaguang said, "Uncle San, this is my and Xiaojie's fault, but you should discuss anything you want to do with us in the future."
Mainly because according to custom, unmarried women don't need to bring gifts, and they have been very busy these past two days and have no time to chat. He didn't say anything, and Lu Hongjun didn't say anything in advance, so such a thing happened.
Lu Hongjun said he wouldn't do it again.
