Golden Marriage Chapter
81 Special Chapter 1: Cheng Tian X Yu Bai (Part I)
”Cheng Tian, do you think we should buy something else? What does uncle and aunt like
to eat? I'll buy some more." Hua Yu Bai looked at Xiang Cheng Tian with a
slight hesitation, a rare bit of frustration. It wasn't the first time he went
to his classmate's home, but it was the first time he met his boyfriend's
family, which made him nervous.
”You
don’t need to. They're very happy that you can come. Besides, you don't have to
buy all the fruits here. Don't be nervous. My parents are very open-minded. You
just have to be yourself.” Xiang Cheng Tian shook Hua Yu Bai's shoulder and
pulled him into the unit door.
The
Xiang Family's apartment building was built by Xiang Cheng Tian's father's work
unit. It has been more than ten years, but the community management is good, so
it looks very new. After entering the building, it was clean, even without any
ash of the walls.
When
they got on the elevator, Xiang Cheng Tian saw Hua Yu Bai's nervous look and he
felt helpless. He sighed and said, "You really have to see them before you
can settle down, silly boy."
Hua
Yu Bai bends his arm and puts his elbow lightly on Cheng Tian's neck.
"Weren't you nervous when you came to my house?"
Xiang
Cheng Tian laughed and said, "Yes, I was more nervous than you. I was the
most nervous person in the world."
Hua
Yu Bai glared at him and the elevator reached the twelfth floor.
Xiang
Cheng Tian took out the key and was about to open the door. Someone inside
opened the door one step at a time. Then a middle-aged woman's face with five
features was exposed, like that of Xiang Cheng Tian.
”Cheng Tian?"
”Mom,
I'm back." Xiang Cheng Tian said.
”Hello,
aunt." Hua Yu Bai handed over the fruits he had bought on the road and
felt sweat rolling in his hand.
”Hello,
hello. Came to look back to mother, "Oh, come here. Why did you buy so many
things? It's too expensive." He took the fruit to his mother and shouted
to the house with great joy: "Dad, come out, your son is back!"
”Ah?
It's so fast, isn't it possible to be late?” She put an apron around his father
and came out of the kitchen with a spoon. He heard the young man next to his
son say hello to him. He laughed and said, "Good, Yu Bai, right? Stop
standing, wash your hands with Cheng Tian and get ready for dinner.”
”Let's
go and put things in my room first." Xiang Cheng Tian took Hua Yu Bai's
bag, took him into his bedroom and closed the door. He whispered, "Look,
my parents are very talkative. You don't need to be nervous."
”Well,
it feels different from your personality." Hua Yu Bai said and breathed
softly. Xiang Cheng Tian, whom he knows, is more stable most of the time, so it
is hard not to forget that his parents may be very strict people, but it is the
opposite.
”My
parents were busy when they were young, and I was with my grandparents. My
grandfather was a very serious person, so I might just follow his character a
little. But I think my personality has been much livelier since we got
together. Always feel very good mood, looking at nature is different.”
”That's
true. There are more words than before.” Hua Yu Bai said, turning around in
Xiang Cheng Tian's bedroom. Standing in Xiang Cheng Tian's bedroom, he felt an
indescribable taste in his heart. He had gone into Lin Yu Tong's bedroom,
before when he went to The Lin Family, but he felt totally different from now.
He didn't have any special emotions at that time. He had only one idea in his
mind. Lin Zi had no bed in his bedroom. Now, he feels that everything he sees
here is new, even if it's an ornament, and he's curious about how it came about
to be here.
”Actually,
I haven't stayed too much since they finished this apartment. When I went to
school, I was living at my grandparents’ house for distance convenience. Then I
started to live here in middle school again. When I finally stopped living in
the dorm, I soon went to college again.
”Well,
it can be seen that the utilization rate is not high.” Hua Yu Bai pointed to a
small crystal boat on the bookshelf. "Can I see it?"
”Yes,
you can take anything in this room."
Hua
Yu Bai laughed and put it in place after seeing it. Then he shouted to his
mother outside, "Cheng Tian, take Yu Bai out for dinner."
The
dishes were almost ready. Xiang Cheng Tian took Hua Yu Bai to wash his hands
and sat around the table. Hua Yu Bai did not move properly until the elders
moved their first chopsticks.
Xiang
Father said to them: "Seven or eight hours on the train, you must be
hungry, eat more."
Xiang
Cheng Tian said, "That's not true. We brought food to eat when we got on
the train."
His
dad didn’t believe him at all, "Just you? What else did you bring? It's
not a quick fix.”
Xiang
Cheng Tian said, "That's true. Yu Bai has a bad stomach. How dare I make
instant noodles for him? I brought an insulating box for the meal we bought
before we got on the train. By the way, I haven't taken out my box yet. I'll
take it out in a minute.”
He
listened to his parents when they told him to do it later, and he still
enthusiastically and energetically bring clips of food to Hua Yu Bai. Hua Yu Bai,
but he didn't give up his elders’ kindness. He took it seriously and answered
questions from time to time from his parents.
In
fact, before that, Xiang Cheng Tian had said everything he could to his
parents, so he knew that now his parents would ask some known things just to
get closer quickly, and he didn't want Hua Yu Bai to be so nervous.
Hua
Yu Bai was not as rigid as he was when he first arrived. He even asked to help
with the dishes after dinner. But for the first time, how his parents would let
him work, Xiang Cheng Tian said happily, "If he wants to brush, brush a
bowl, what do you grab? He does this at home anyway."
”Why
are you getting thicker and thicker, you little boy?” Xiang Cheng Tian father
said to Hua Yu Bai, "Yu Bai, why don’t you go sit down. You were tired on
the way. You don't have to work here."
”It's
very kind of you, uncle. I'm not tired. You should rest.”
”Forget
me. Don't rob me of my dutiful son chores. I'll wash the dished! Can't I wash
with him?!"
Xiang Cheng Tian pulled Hua Yu Bai into the kitchen,
closes the door, washed the dishes and watches Hua Yu Bai clean up the rest of
the dishes. "Yu Bai, do you think my cooking is delicious or my father's
cooking is delicious?"
”Do
you want to hear the truth?”
”Of
course."
”I
think it's delicious, but it's two different flavors. One is the taste of home,
the other is the taste of love.”
”Well,
are you attached to Lin Zi? Speaking in such a literary and artistic way."
Xiang Cheng Tian gave Hua Yu Bai a gentle flick with his wet hand. "Rest
assured, no matter what kind of taste you want to eat in the future, you will
definitely have it."
”Hmm."
Hua Yu Bai put the dishes away and wiped away the dishes washed by Xiang Cheng
Tian. They were busy working for a while, tidied up the kitchen, and cut a
plate of fruit before going out.
Xiang
father and his wife sat on the sofa and chatted for a while. They saw two
children come out and waved with laughter and let them sit on the sofa.
By
this time it was dark, but it was still a little early to go to bed.
Xiang
Yu looked at his wife and saw her nod slightly. He said, "Yu Bai, have you
eaten to full?"
Hua
Yu Bai said, “Yes, thank you, uncle and aunt."
Zhou
Min: "Thank you so much. I'll treat this place as my home. Don't be so
angry."
Xiang
Yu: "That's it. Although this is the first time we have met, I think me
and your aunt both feel that you are close to us, and we will not object to
your being with Cheng Tian. It's just something of a concern. I hope you can
listen to us, too.”
”What's
your opinion?” Xiang Cheng Tian's face is not clear, so he said, "Dad,
what do you think of?"
”Yes,
of course. You are the only older son in our family. Of course, I hope you
don't stay too far away. Although you have developed well in the B City, there
are so many people there and there is so much competition that there is no
better place than here. What if you stay here, parents can take care of you,
but over there, you all have to rely on yourself, it's a lot of hard
work."
”Cheng
Tian, Dad and Mom think this, you stay here to develop your career, Mom and Dad
have some savings here, we can help you
buy a house, so you will not be much easier later, as long as you find the
right job to live, stable, it will be very good.”
”But
Mom, we're used to life there, and there are more opportunities in the B City,
and most of our friends are there. Besides, I'm ready to open a supermarket.
I've even chosen all the places, so I don't want to go back here and start all
over again with the research.” Xiang Cheng Tian said, "I know that my
neighbor Aunt Xu family's children didn't come back for two or three years
after they go out, and you're worried that I'll be like that. But you can rest
assured that I won't. We'll come back as soon as we have time. In addition, we
also have a good idea, as long as the development over there is good we will
take over to live there. Mom, you and my dad have not always regretted not
being able to spend more time with me. We'll all be together in the future.
Isn't that good?”
”So
you are determined to develop in the B City?
”Yes,
and my classmate has a real estate business in his family. They all promised to
sell us a house at the cost price. There is no such house price even in the
village.”
”Ah?
What's the right thing to do?” Zhou Min was somewhat surprised. “The B City
house, if it's cheaper or smaller, it's costs millions of dollars, at that cost...
How much less do you earn?”
”Nothing
is inappropriate. It's an apartment. It's just like brothers. It's not good for
me to see the outside world too much." Xiang Cheng Tian remembered the
promotional pages that Lin Yu Tong had sent to him, and his heart burst with
laughter. It can be said that in the B City, a roommate abducted a friend to be
his wife and has two brothers who are friends and friends in law. In one of
their dormitories, except Lin Yu Tong, they are all only children in their
families. Although Hua Yu Bai also has brothers and sisters, there is no blood
relationship, and even if there is something really unreliable in the future,
so for people like them, handing in reliable brothers is comparable to
relatives, Lin Yu Tong and they are more brotherly. There's really nothing to
say.
”Then
you're going to buy a house in the B City." I feel a little depressed to
my mother. As for such a child, he was too young to take with him. He always
wanted to let him stay at home after graduation. Obviously, the child could not
help his mother. In fact, apart from the fact that we can't get close to each
other, it's a good thing for children to be ambitious.
”
Uncle, aunt, the construction of the high-speed railway from the B City to here
has begun. It will be open in the next year at the latest. At that time, from
the B City to here it will only take up to three hours, as long as we have
time, we can come back for a weekend or two.
”Ah?
How fast?!" If this is true, the time will be shortened by more than half.
”Really."
Xiang Cheng Tian hugged his mother on her shoulder. "If you're not busy in
the store in the future, you can come and see us. My father can have a weekend
off. You can play with him for two days and then come back.”
Zhou
Min has two clothing stores of her own. The business is still very good and
there are employees in the store. So it is not impossible to leave for two
days. On hearing this, she felt a little better in her heart. As for Xiang Yu,
he works in the Water Conservancy Design Institute with high rank and salary,
so it is not difficult to ask for leave fro few days.
Xiang
Yu pondered for a moment, "Well, since you all want to be in the B City,
we can only support it. But it's a big deal to buy a house, and then Dad's
going to come and see it."
Zhou
Min said, "Otherwise, Cheng Tian, you'll watch after you go back this
time. If you really like it, call your parents and we'll go back there."
Xiang
Cheng Tian said, "That's OK, but Mom, can I have the household
registration book for the registration."
Xiang
Yu and Zhou Min looked at each other, and Zhou Min said, "Okay, when you
want to use it, ask your mother for it."
Before
coming, Xiang Cheng Tian mentioned to his family that he wanted to register for
marriage, but at that time he didn't mention buying a house, so Zhou Min had
some worries. Although both her husband and she feel that Hua Yu Bai is good,
they have only seen him once, and some things cannot be completely reassured.
After
returning to the bedroom at night, Zhou Min said to Xiang Yu, "Dad, I
think Cheng Tian means to register marriage directly this time. But in this
way, you don't have to give away half of the money when you buy the house. If
Yu Bai really can get along well with Cheng Tian, it's OK, but we don't know
much about him. Besides, they're far away, we won't have too many opportunities
in the future. You said, in case of..."
Xiang
Yu "I understand your worries. It's emotional to notarize property whether
you buy it in my name or when they buy it. Besides, it's not good for Cheng
Tian to say it. And Yu Bai doesn't look like a bad kid.”
Zhou
Min sighed, "Forget it, it's still a vacation now, and the Civil Security
Bureau can't handle the formalities. Let me talk to Cheng Tian again when I get
a chance."
Xiang
Yu saw his wife open the door and asked, "Where are you going?"
Zhou
Min laughed and said, "Cheng Tian said mean Yu Bai has a bad stomach. Let
me give him a hot cup of milk. How does it feels to have been unable to live
with one's own parents since childhood. You and I know it best, not to mention
that his adoptive parents later have their own children and are prone to care
more for them than him.”
Xiang
Yu nodded. "Go ahead."
Zhou
Min went to heat the milk, raised her hand and was about to knock on the door,
but she heard her son's voice coming from inside, which seemed to be helpless,
causing her raised hand to stop in mid-air.
”Yu
Bai, I really want to be with you, and we have lived in the same room for
several years. You think I don't know you yet? How can I go back to buy a house
after finishing things here?"
”If
it's your own money, of course I don't care. But we must not use my uncle and
aunt's money to buy a house. When you say you buy a house after you have to
have it written down, I will contribute up half of it for nothing. Isn't that
not very good? Although it is possible to notarize property when buying a
house, we will surely find it difficult to ask uncle and aunt to bring it up.
So you'd better buy the house first, and then let's register. Just afterwards,
we can come back to see my uncle and aunt again."
”But
then I feel a little unfair to you."
”What
is grievance? It's what I want to do. It's not what you mean. Besides, uncle
and aunt's money does not fall from the sky, we have to hard work to buy you a
house so I can live with you, thank them and say it’s too late for them to help
us buy a house, what a good grievance. So when you bought it until you've
bought the house. It's pre-marital property, it won’t be mine in any sense."
”..."
”Would
you like milk, too?” Xiang Yu was puzzled to see his wife come in with a glass
of milk. They don't have the habit of drinking milk at night.
”No,
it wasn't sent in. Zhou Min told her husband what she had heard, and suddenly
felt a little overwhelmed. "Dad, do you think I'm too mean?"
”Normal
people think more about it, and we are not saints. But since Yu Bai has this
idea, then we shouldn't be too grieving to him. I'll see to it. You can send
the milk over. It'll get cold later.
”
Hmm." Zhou Min knocked on her son's door and went in to see Hua Yu Bai helping
her son to pack his clothes. She smiled and handed the milk over. "Yu Bai,
here you are. You have a bad stomach. It's good to drink some milk."
”Thank
you, Aunt." Hua Yu Bai put down his clothes first, and then drank the
milk. "Aunt, I'll wash the cups." After that, he even took out the
thermos lunch box he had mentioned before and washed it.
”Give
me the clothes you've worn along the way and I will wash them together
tomorrow." Zhou Min patted his son, "You have only one pillow in your
house, and then you go to Mama's room and get another."
”
No, Mom. One pillow is enough for us."
Zhou
Min:"..."
Hua
Yu Bai came back soon after washing. He saw that Zhou Min had gone and was
thinking about going to wash. Then he heard Xiang Cheng Tian say, "What to
wash? Go to wash with my brother."
He
didn't wash it together in the B City, but here Hua Yu Bai has no such thick
skin. He said, "You wash it first, and I'll do it later."
"Then
help me find my underwear," said Xiang Cheng Tian.
Hua
Yu Bai took it out for Xiang Cheng Tian. Xiang Cheng Tian goes to take a bath.
Hua Yu Bai sat in the room and did nothing for a while. He sent a message to
Lin Yu Tong: [Lin Zi, what was your first time like to show your elder
brother's house?}
Lin
Yu Tong quickly responded that if he quarreled with his him, he would be
foolish.
Hua
Yu Bai:"..."
When
Xiang Cheng Tian came out of his bath, he saw Hua Yu Bai laughing muffled at
his cell phone, sat down beside him and scanned the probe to see the general
content. He laughed and said, "This Lin Zi is really a living treasure." But I think there's some truth in
what he said.
Lin
Yu Tong is passing on the experience of "how to live in harmony with
middle-aged women" through information.
Hua
Yu Bai does not say yes, but I also feel that what Lin Yu Tong said is right.
For example, be diligent, sweeter and more careful, so long as you are not too
unreasonable, you should be able to accept it.
So
the next day, Hua Yu Bai got up early.
In
fact, when he was in the B City, he also had the habit of getting up early. He
did not cook. Cooking was the business handled by Xiang Cheng Tian. He would
clean the house while Xiang Cheng Tian was cooking, or help pick vegetables.
When he got up, he found that Zhou Min was going out to buy vegetables and asked
if he could go with her. Zhou Min was worried that everything she wanted to buy
today seemed heavy, so she agreed.
As
they chatted together, Zhou Min asked many questions about school life and what
plans they had for the future. Hua Yu Bai answered them one by one. Later, when
he arrived at the place where he bought vegetables, he also offered to pay,
help with carrying things, and even bargain. Zhou Min liked him even more and
more. He stopped in front of the seafood stall when they were leaving. When he
saw the big and fresh crabs one by one, he said, "Buying some crabs. I
heard Cheng Tian said you like seafood." It's the best time to eat crabs
this season.
Hua
Yu Bai said, "Okay aunt."
Two
people looked there to pick crabs, a total of eight were picked, and then went
to sell fruit to buy peaches and grapes, and two large mangoes. When they got
home, a vegetable car had nothing on them. Fortunately, Hua Yu Bai came,
holding the car in one hand and carrying a big bag in the other. Zhou Min only
carried a bag of crabs, but it was not much. But just as she was about to go
out of the market, she suddenly asked Hua Yu Bai to wait for her, and then she
went to buy something. It was packed in a black plastic bag, so he couldn't see
what it was.
Hua
Yu Bai was a little curious as to what was in a black bag, he didn't ask even if
he was afraid of something he couldn't say.
They
talked and walked as they were returning. They were not bored all the way. Just
out of the elevator, Zhou Min said, "There seems to be a scent in the
room."
Hua
Yu Bai laughed. "It's Cheng Tian who's supposed to get up and cook."
Zhou
Min opened the door and saw his son carrying porridge and onion cake to the
table.
”You
went and bought so much food?' Xiang Cheng Tian watched the exploding vegetable
bags and took them inside.
”You
won’t come back for the Mid-Autumn Festival. Let's celebrate the Mid-Autumn
Festival today. Take a bite in the morning and have a good lunch." Zhou
Min said that he helped Hua Yu Bai ad she took out of the black bag a pair of
new slippers. "Yu Bai, wear this."
”Thank
you, Aunt." Hua Yu Bai looked at Zhou Min gratefully when he found that it
was just right.
”Mom,
why don't you have me? Asked Xiang Cheng Tian.
”Do
you have cotton slippers? What's new? You can dress casually. You will live here
for a few days anyway." Zhou Min said, "Go ahead, Yu Bai. Let's wash
our hands and eat. Let's leave the rest of them alone and let them both
work."
Hua
Yu Bai smiled at Xiang Cheng Tian and went into the bathroom. After he came
out, he went into the kitchen to help Xiang Cheng Tian with his things and
whispered, "The lamp in the bathroom seems to be broken. Go back and buy
it and replace it. Besides, shall we clean the glass windows before we
leave?"
Xiang
Cheng Tian really didn't pay attention to these, listening to this, he also
felt that they should do a good job before leaving, nodding. “OK, I will listen
to you." Although he knows that this word does not have much weight,
fortunately, time can prove everything.
