Chapter 106
Hou Shuyi followed Zheng Jiawen out of Wang's house, and saw a group of women surrounded by them, secretly chewing their tongues.
"Who are those people?" Hou Shuyi asked.
"Boring people." Zheng Jiawen replied, turned around and said goodbye to Zhiming's sister-in-law, "Sister-in-law, go back, let's go, see you on the wedding day."
"Oh, slow down on your way back." Zhiming's wife said with a smile.
"Goodbye, Yueyue." Hou Shuyi smiled and waved to the little guy.
"Goodbye, two aunts." Little Yueyue snuggled up to her mother's lap and waved.
Zheng Jiawen and Hou Shuyi got into the car under the watchful eyes of Mrs. Zhiming. She was about to enter the house after the people left, and she heard a group of people laughing next to her. She was so frightened that she hurriedly led her daughter into the house and closed the door.
"Shuyi, I'll take you home first, I have to go to Mr. Zhou's house." Zheng Jiawen said while clutching the invitation in his hand.
"I heard that Mr. Zhou is very serious when you usually talk about it. He may not approve of our matter. I'd better go with you."
"I was afraid that Mr. Zhou would say something bad, so I didn't let you go." Zheng Jiawen scratched Hou Shuyi's nose, "I also struggled to invite Mr. Zhou, but after thinking about it, I still have to invite you. After all, I respect you. If I can come, I will be very happy, if I don’t come, there is nothing I can do, but I want to tell the people around me.”
"Then let's go together and face it together." Hou Shuyi laughed.
"Shuyi, you are so kind." Zheng Jiawen was very moved. She was afraid that her other half would back down, but Shuyi never backed down, so she would be more brave and determined.
Hou Shuyi smiled and touched Zheng Jiawen's arm and said, "Then you have to cherish it."
"Well, it's natural." Zheng Jiawen smiled, and even the nervousness about going to Mr. Zhou's house dissipated.
When they arrived at Zhou's house, Zheng Jiawen and Hou Shuyi were led into the living room, and Zheng Jiawen directly handed the invitation to Mr. Zhou with both hands.
Mr. Zhou opened it suspiciously, and was stunned when he saw the names of the two brides, and looked up at Zheng Jiawen speechless.
"Mr. Zhou, Shuyi and I are about to get married, and I would like to invite you to honor me." Zheng Jiawen looked at Mr. Zhou calmly.
Mr. Zhou held the invitation card in his hand and said nothing, the atmosphere froze.
"This marriage has always been a marriage between a man and a woman. You two women marry openly. Do you know the impact on society? You are a professor of Zhongcheng, and you are a student. Your words and deeds have far-reaching influence. You know that you are like this." What are the consequences? If the society condemns you and the students go on strike, can you still be a professor?"
"In the end, I guessed it, and I thought it over, but I thought, if I put this matter in my 40s and [-]s, I would definitely be more cautious and afraid to do it. Since I really want to do it in my heart, then I will take advantage of it." When I was young, I did everything I wanted to do. Shuyi and I knew each other well. My feelings for Shuyi were very strong, so strong that I wanted to tell everyone. Therefore, although it seems crazy to marry openly, I am very happy. This is enough, as for whether I can still be a teacher, as long as I am good enough in the future, I don't believe that there is no school that will not hire me. I am married, and I don't want to have regrets in my life."
Upon hearing this, Mr. Zhou put down the invitation and said, "You can do what you want, but I won't go."
Seeing Mr. Zhou like this, Hou Shuyi quietly tugged on Zheng Jiawen's sleeves. Mr. Zhou did not swear or insult, which is very rare. It is impossible for everyone he knows to approve and bless such a marriage.
Hou Shuyi, the document of the Zheng family, shook her head at her, and stopped fighting for it, and said with a smile: "I know, I also thought about it when I came here, and this is probably what most people think, but such a major life event as my marriage, I thought, I still have to come to the door and hand over the invitation, you don’t have to force me to come or not. Shuyi and I still have a lot of things to prepare, so we’re leaving.”
After Zheng Jiawen finished speaking, he took Hou Shuyi's hand and walked out.
Mr. Zhou looked at the invitation on the table and sighed. On the day of the wedding, as long as it was photographed by reporters and published in the newspaper, it would definitely spread throughout Shanghai.
When Zheng Jiawen and Hou Shuyi arrived home, the small foreign building was already full of people. The whole family of the second and third uncles had arrived, and the elder brother who had not been home for the New Year also came.
"With so many people, this small western-style building can't fit in. Jiahe, take your second uncle and third uncle's family to Julu Villa to settle down. Your sister is getting married soon. You, a brother, have to cheer up and do everything. Be more attentive." Zheng Junren instructed his son Zheng Jiahe.
"Understood, father." Zheng Jiahe said with a smile.
"Okay, now everyone in our family is here, let's go and have a lively reunion dinner at the restaurant opened by our family." After talking, Zheng Junren remembered something, looked at Tao Min and said: "Yes, get married At noon that day, we held a banquet at Julu Villa, prepared some cuisines from various places, and used the best for food."
"I'm talking about this matter." Tao Min glanced at her daughter. When a daughter gets married, naturally she will use the best for everything.
On the day of the wedding, the tables and chairs were arranged neatly on the lawn behind the church, and there was a big banner on which Hou Shuyi wrote on the red paper, "Welcome all relatives and friends to attend Zheng Jiawen and Hou Shuyi's wedding."
When Zheng Jiawen arrives, his relatives and friends as well as the employees of Zheng's department store, bank, and Shishang, as well as the business partners of the Zheng family for so many years, have already arrived. There were more than 500 people, ten chairs were placed in a row, and a total of 58 rows were placed. Such a big scene immediately attracted the attention of the surrounding pedestrians.
The Zheng family did not invite a foreign pastor, but Mr. Xu Manhua to preside over the wedding. Zheng Jiawen stood at the front with high spirits. Although Mr. Wang Qian did not come, she felt regretful, but this did not affect her mood of getting married today.
"Look, the car is here." Cong Jiayi saw the wedding car and shouted excitedly.
Zheng Jiawen turned around quickly after hearing the words, raised his hand and brushed the long hair tied behind him meticulously, and tidied the red square scarf and white suit under the shirt, and stood there waiting with a smile on his face.
The wedding car stopped two meters behind the eight rows of seats, the door slowly opened under the attention of everyone, and Hou Shuyi got out of the wedding car wearing a veil and a wedding dress.
Seeing this, Hou Shengying straightened his suit and prepared to go forward to follow his daughter to the red carpet in the middle, but when he stretched out his hand, Hou Shuyi walked to the red carpet with her skirt in her hand as if she didn't see it, and put her mother Yin Xiaxiang's arm on her arm, smiling Walk to Zheng Jiawen.
"Father." Hou Hewei looked angry from the side, and stepped forward to complain in front of his father. Just as he opened his mouth, Hou Shengying sat back in his seat angrily.
Yin Xiaxiang took her daughter forward step by step, walked in front of Zheng Jiawen, turned around slowly and put her daughter's hand in Zheng Jiawen's, and said slowly: "Jiawen, I handed over Shuyi to you, I hope you will love each other and support each other .”
"Thank you, mother. From now on, Shuyi and I will stand together through thick and thin." Zheng Jiawen was very excited, and his eyes were sore.
"Okay." Tears in Yin Xiaxiang's eyes had already flowed down, and she said twice to retreat.
Zheng Jiawen and Hou Shuyi held hands and slowly turned to face the front, looking at Mr. Xu Manhua in front.
"Jiawen, please put your left hand on your heart, and the next words will come from your mouth." Xu Manhua looked at the student in front of him and said slowly.
After Zheng Jiawen did as he did, Xu Manhua glanced at the crowd behind him, and then at the onlookers and the reporter holding the camera. He didn't know if what happened today would be a blessing or a curse in the future.
"Jiawen, Shuyi, since ancient times, men and women have been married, and yin and yang are in harmony. Today you are independent, and the two girls marry resolutely. In the future, tens of thousands of people will criticize you. Think about it now, will you regret it?"
"No regrets." Hou Shuyi said slowly.
"I won't regret it until I die." Zheng Jiawen held Hou Shuyi's hand tightly and said.
"In the future, in the face of the world's criticism, are you willing to advance and retreat together with your partner?"
"I do!" The two replied in unison.
"Okay." Xu Manhua heard the words and picked up the red certificate on the table in front of him and said slowly: "Zheng Jiawen, Hou Shuyi, hereby forge a good relationship, make a good couple, tie the red rope early, keep the white heads together forever, spend the full moon, and you will be happy Swimming seas are dry and stones are rotten. It means that couples should make an alliance first, and I sincerely make this agreement."
After reading it, Xu Manhua handed the certificate to the two of them, and said with a smile: "Congratulations, happy wedding."
Zheng Jiawen turned his head to look at Hou Shuyi when he heard the words, and the two smiled and bowed to Xu Manhua: "Thank you, sir."
