Chapter 3 As Old as My Son?
Compared with those couples who came to register their marriage with happy smiles on their faces, Yu Xiaocheng and Zheng Yanru were a little different. Their calm expressions were mixed with a trace of fear and uneasiness, as well as a little hesitation.
"Yeah!"
"Come closer, don't be so far away, it's not a divorce."
The marriage certificate required a two-inch photo. However, Yu Xiaocheng and Zheng Yanru were not prepared, so they had to spend money to take a temporary photo on site. The result was a stump for the fake couple. They couldn't touch each other, and there was always a gap between them. There is an obvious gap.
"Ouch."
"What's going on with you two? Can't you get closer?" the photographer said angrily: "There are people queuing up behind you. Could you please cooperate?"
After constant urging, the two finally got together, but a new problem arose. Others came to take wedding photos with smiles on their faces, but Yu Xiaocheng and Zheng Yanru were expressionless.
"smile!"
“This lady asks you to smile,” the photographer said.
Finally, after a long time of tossing, the wedding photos were finally taken.
After the two took photos, they rushed to the marriage registration window. The staff asked Yu Xiaocheng and Zheng Yanru for their ID cards and household registration books. After checking their information, they handed over some forms.
Zheng Yanru took the pen and filled in the content carefully until she finally wanted to write her name. At this time, she stopped the pen in her hand and glanced at Yu Xiaocheng beside her from the corner of her eye, but she didn't expect a bright pair of eyes. His eyes were also secretly looking at her.
Zheng Yanru was stunned, and suddenly felt embarrassed, and a strong sense of shame surged from the bottom of her heart.
at the same time,
Yu Xiaocheng was also a little on pins and needles, but he didn't expect that the two people's eyes would actually meet.
After each handed in the form, Yu Xiaocheng and Zheng Yanru sat there quietly. At this moment, the two of them looked less like they were here to register a marriage, and more like they were here to register a divorce.
"Congratulations to both of you."
The staff sent blessings and handed over two marriage certificates symbolizing love and responsibility.
Zheng Yanru got her own marriage certificate, opened it and looked at the photos above. Although both of them smiled, the smiles were particularly fake. It felt a bit like forcing a smile, but this is not the point. The point is from now on. , he legally became the wife of his best friend's son, and his best friend became his mother-in-law.
I didn't have much idea at first, but after receiving the marriage certificate, how should I face Xiaocheng next to me?
Me, should I call him husband?
When the word 'husband' appeared in her mind, Zheng Yanru's cold face instantly turned red. She, who had always regarded herself as an elder, suddenly became Yu Xiaocheng's wife, which Zheng Yanru could not accept. And this was not a problem. The key, the key lies in the best friend.
Zheng Yanru bit her lips tightly, a feeling of regret swept through her body. She felt that she was particularly sorry for her best friend. Sister Fangfang regarded her as her biological sister, but she ended up marrying her son backhandedly.
or
How about getting a divorce now?
Anyway, the window for divorce is right next door.
"Aunt Zheng."
"We are going to take the oath over there." Yu Xiaocheng touched her lightly with his elbow and whispered in her ear.
"Um"
After Zheng Yanru came to her senses, she responded and followed Yu Xiaocheng into the room where the oath was taken.
The entire oath-taking process went smoothly, as long as you just read the words in the text. Then the two left the Civil Affairs Bureau and returned to Zheng Yanru's car. They remained silent to each other and did not make any changes in their identities and relationships. Be prepared accordingly.
"Have you settled your work matters? If not, come to work in my company?" Zheng Yanru asked in a low voice.
"I plan to study for a Ph.D.," Yu Xiaocheng replied softly, "I will study for a Ph.D. at our local Shenzhou University."
"Will you live on campus in the future?" Zheng Yanru asked again.
"Generally, the doctoral stage is mainly about scientific research. My major is physics, and it relies on theory. I don't need to stay in the laboratory for a long time." Yu Xiaocheng explained: "The key is that when I was studying for my master's degree, I had several articles The article has reached the level of a Ph.D., so compared with other people’s Ph.D. studies, I feel much less pressure.”
Zheng Yanru knew that Yu Xiaocheng was a super academic, and she agreed with his choice from the bottom of her heart. She pursed her lips and said, "If you encounter any difficulties, remember to contact me. Don't hide it."
Subsequently,
Zheng Yanru took out a bank card from her bag and handed it to Yu Xiaocheng.
"This is my supplementary gold card. It can be used as an overdraft of several million. You can use it to spend it." Zheng Yanru said softly.
Looking at the gold card that was handed to me, a classic line flashed in my mind: Now, go out and have fun, this is my supplementary gold card.
what to do? Take it or not?
If I take it, I will become Cao Dahua. If I don't take it, I will let down Aunt Zheng's kindness.
"I'm not short of money."
"And there are state subsidies for studying for a PhD." Yu Xiaocheng shook his head and refused.
"Is that a little money enough for you in a year?" Zheng Yanru flattened her mouth, forced the gold card into his arms, and whispered: "Do you want to buy you another car? It will be convenient for you to go to school or go home. Do you like a Ferrari sports car? Or a Mercedes-Benz SUV? Or how about I buy you an apartment near Shanghai University?”
Ah this
Is the rich woman’s love so fierce?
It’s a bit too much for me to get both a car and a house.
Yu Xiaocheng smiled awkwardly and said: "Aunt Zheng, I know what you are thinking. In fact, it doesn't have to be like this at all."
Zheng Yanru opened her mouth, but she didn't know how to say the words that came to her lips, so she muttered: "Then let's do this for now."
"send you home?"
Zheng Yanru turned to look at him.
"Need not."
"I just have something else to do. Aunt Zheng, please go and do it yourself." Yu Xiaocheng opened the car door and smiled softly: "I'm leaving."
Before the pretty rich woman could react, Yu Xiaocheng got out of the car, leaving her still sitting in the car, confused and a little overwhelmed. Until now, she has not accepted the reality of her marriage, let alone accepted her best friend's son as her husband. fact.
I.
Should I tell Sister Fangfang?
Zheng Yanru bit her lip and kept thinking about this issue. Finally, after much deliberation, she decided to tell her best friend because she couldn't hide the fact that she was marrying her son. Rather than being discovered by her, it was better to confess on her own initiative.
"What's wrong?"
"What difficulties did you encounter in such a hurry?"
Yu Xiaocheng's mother Chu Fang hurried to a coffee shop, found Zheng Yanru sitting in the corner, and asked with concern on her face.
"sister"
"You sit down first."
Seeing her best friend, who was also her mother-in-law, Zheng Yanru pursed her lips and whispered softly: "I have something to tell you."
"What's up?"
After Chu Fang sat down, she asked eagerly.
"I"
"I"
Zheng Yanru bit her lip tightly and replied in a squeaky voice: "I have received the marriage certificate."
"What!"
"Have you received your marriage certificate?"
Chu Fang's eyes widened and she looked at her in disbelief. After reacting, she asked anxiously: "What's going on? Haven't you always been single? Why did you suddenly get the certificate?"
"A man proposed to me, and I agreed in a moment of confusion. I got the certificate from him this afternoon." Zheng Yanru couldn't help but lower her head as she spoke.
"Ouch!"
"You, you, are confused!"
After hearing what Zheng Yanru said, Chu Fang was so angry that her facial features were distorted, and she said angrily: "It's too impulsive! This is related to your lifelong happiness, you...you..."
"Actually, I know him very well." Zheng Yanru murmured: "He has a good character, handsome features, and a clean family background. From a certain perspective, he meets my criteria for choosing a mate, that is, he is younger than me."
Chu Fang was stunned for a moment, looked at her doubtfully, and asked in a low voice: "What do you mean? You and this man seem to have been in contact all the time?"
"Um."
Zheng Yanru nodded.
Chu Fang, who was still a little angry at first, suddenly changed. She smiled angrily and said, "I was shocked. I thought you had found a strange man to be your husband."
"well?"
"How much younger is he than you?"
Chu Fang asked with a gossipy face: "Three years old? Five years old?"
"Seven years old."
Zheng Yanru replied hesitantly.
"Seven years old?"
"Ouch! Isn't that the same age as my son?!" Chu Fang looked at her good sister with a wicked smile: "Xiao Ru! You are so good! You actually got to eat young grass and found such a young boy. , Okay, okay, sister, I support you.”
Zheng Yanru's face suddenly turned red to her neck. She lowered her head in embarrassment, her heart filled with unspeakable shame.
no!
no!
I. I can’t tell her, at least not yet!
