Chapter 731: Chapter 731: Arranging a Wedding Ceremony
Tong Yao grinned, "Dad spending some effort is good, it’s better than thinking it’s a hassle. Jinnian and the rest will be happy to know."
Wen Yun said, "Your father always has these kids in mind, how could he find it troublesome. But you, the situation back then didn’t allow us to hold a proper wedding for you."
She looked at Tong Yao with a heartache, "Yaoyao, how about this, after their wedding, let’s pick a suitable day and hold a wedding for you and Xiaochen. We won’t take any wedding gifts; we just want to make it lively. It’s also a way to make up for the inadequacies in your wedding back then. Nowadays, everyone likes to wear a wedding dress, you didn’t get the chance to wear one back then, and you can wear one."
Since the wedding is being hosted by Jinnian and Miaomiao, it would not be appropriate if Tong Yao and Si Chen also want to get married.
Wen Yun understands this, but she also feels for her daughter, so she wanted to hold a wedding for Tong Yao.
Tong Yao knew that Wen Yun was worried about her and she held Wen Yun’s hand and said, "Mom, I know you feel for me and don’t want me to have any regrets but Xiaochen and I don’t care about this. As long as our family is safe, if we want to wear a wedding dress, we can buy one at any time and take photos at the photo studio. Holding a wedding can be troublesome, I’m most afraid of trouble, so let’s forget about the idea of having another wedding."
Upon hearing Tong Yao saying this, Wen Yun laughed jokingly, "Since you don’t want to have the wedding, let’s forget about it. Xiaochen is too busy after all and he surely wouldn’t have time."
Tong Yao thought for a moment and said, "Mom, though we are not re-hosting the wedding, we could take a family photo. Yangyang and Yueyue are already so old and we haven’t taken a family photo yet."
Wen Yun was suddenly reminded of it and said, "Your father mentioned this before. In the future, let’s take photos more frequently."
Tong Yao suggested, "I will buy a camera tomorrow for convenience. So, we can take photos anytime, anywhere. The photos taken in the studio are too rigid and unrealistic."
The last time they took a photo was when Yangyang and Yueyue turned one.
In the past few years, Tong Yaohui and Wen Yun have taken their kids to take photos. Thinking carefully, she didn’t know what she was up to these few years other than giving birth to Yangyang and Yueyue. Time passed by quickly and the kids are already a few years old.
"Alright," said Wen Yun, "buy a good camera. Don’t just buy a cheap one for the sake of saving money. If the photos turn out bad or the camera easily spoils, it’s not worth it."
Tong Yao nodded and said, "I will call Jinnian to inform him about Miaomiao and Jian Jun’s wedding."
"Go ahead, I’ll make your father a cup of tea." Wen Yun went to the kitchen and brought a cup of hot water to the study.
Tong Yao returned to her room and called Guo Jinnian to discuss Jian Jun’s proposal for a joint wedding. Guo Jinnian was surprised.
"This lad, he’s rushing himself. He’s only been seeing Miaomiao for a few days and he’s already thinking of marriage. Has he proposed? Hongwei never proposed to me and I felt cheated. Surely my sister doesn’t have to get married without a proposal too?"
As for the joint wedding, Guo Jinnian had no objections. It would be more festive and less trouble by organizing it together. It’s just that, she felt that it was unfair for Guo Miaomiao to miss out on what she didn’t get to enjoy.
Tong Yao recounted the events of the day, "Jian Jun knelt down on one knee to propose today. Then, I reminded him that he had forgotten the wedding ring, to which he said he will bring Miaomiao to buy it after work. The ceremonial sense is there and even though they haven’t been together for long, the earliest date for the wedding should be three or four months later. They can use this time to know each other better. Everyone knows everyone here, Jian Jun’s temper and character is known by you as well. So you don’t need to worry about it."
"He has been through a lot and there are no close relatives around him. He will definitely treat Miaomiao well. If he doesn’t treat Miaomiao well, he’s going to have to deal with me."
Although Guo Miaomiao is not her biological sister, but she treats Guo Miaomiao like her own sister.
If Jian Jun really bullies Guo Miaomiao, she will definitely not stand for it.
"He’s indeed quite nice. He surely knows how to woo a girl better than Hongwei," said Guo Jinnian, "Three or four months should be enough time for them to know each other. Whether it’s Jian Jun or anyone else, who can guarantee that they will always treat Miaomiao well in the future? Jian Jun is a known character, dating him will ease my worries."
Jian Jun is the brother-in-law Guo Jinnian approves of. She hopes that her judgement is not wrong and that Miaomiao will be happy.
Tong Yao said, "It’s good that you can think openly. By the way, have you talked to Hongwei about the house? Is he satisfied with the location?"
"He has no objections and said that the location is very nice," Guo Jinnian suddenly remembered something and added, "I forgot to tell you something. Guess who I saw in Hongwei’s office today?"
Tong Yao raised her eyebrows, "Who did you see?"
Guo Jinnian mysteriously said, "I saw the woman who quarreled with us that day over buying clothes. These two women are really something else. It was fine if they just went to find Hongwei, but they even wanted to know about Cheng Feng. I don’t know how they knew Cheng Feng."
Tong Yao’s eyes flashed, she said quietly, "They met at Enzhen’s child’s full moon banquet and I didn’t expect that they would have their eyes on Cheng Feng and Hongwei. These two women are really ambitious."
Guo Jinnian grumbled, "Hongwei told me that, these women were originally brought by other men. These two women are cunning, most likely they want to marry into wealth. Seeing that Hongwei and Cheng Feng are successful and young, they want to take the opportunity."
Tong Yao smiled, "In future, there will be many such women around Hongwei. You need to be prepared. Although Hongwei is not that type of person, there will always be people who want to climb up."
Gu Hongwei is young and promising, handsome, an outstanding man in his generation. It is normal for people to hold expectations of him.
Especially that he is currently single, there definitely will be people wanting to climb up on his success.
"So what should I do?" Guo Jinnian sounded troubled, "These women are all more beautiful and younger than me. What if Hongwei can’t control himself and does something that betrays me?"
"Hongwei is a person who knows his limit. If he likes to fool around, he wouldn’t have remained single for so many years and still remain chaste. I reminded you not to fall for other people’s tricks and become aggrieved. You should observe and feel more, and not act impulsively."
Tong Yao wasn’t sure if something would happen in this lifetime that would cause him to be single again just like he was in her previous life. She could only remind Guo Jinnian not to let any misunderstandings lead them to miss out on each other.
Gu Hongwei’s character, Tong Yao believes in.
Of course, the reason why she had so much faith in him was not only because of their experiences in this life, but also because she knew some things about Gu Hongwei from her previous life.
In her previous life, Gu Hongwei remained single all his life. Rumors said that he remained single because of "her", obviously that was a wrong rumor.
But his chasteness wouldn’t be wrong.
