Marry Before Love - Chapter 3
In fact, the Cheng family did not have the custom of going back to the old family house during the Chinese New Year. He also spent the New Year at his own house a few years ago. He looked at the door in front of him and remembered the scene when he first came here.
At that time, he and Cheng Yuan were newly married, and they actually went back to the old family house to recognize people, but Cheng Yuan didn’t say a word along the way, which made his heart ache a little. The only people he knew about the Cheng family were Cheng’s father and Cheng’s mother, the old man of the Cheng family and Cheng Yuan himself. As for relatives, he didn’t even recognize all those who came to see Cheng Yuan several times, let alone Cheng Yuan’s family.
Cheng Yuan had no intention of opening his mouth on the way. He even thought to himself that if Cheng Yuan wanted to be silent to the end and turn a blind eye to those relatives, he would simply not say hello. Anyway, it was originally a marriage, and Cheng Yuan’s family affairs were left to him to solve.
But when the time came to face so many people, his palms were sweating profusely. After all, he was not such a social person. Even if he thought about it in his heart, he was just enjoying himself. In the end, he still had to speak to people. He thought that even if Cheng Yuan was indifferent, he would have to extract the information of those relatives from the his mouth, but he didn’t expect that the person who had been silent by his side would speak first.
“Aunt” he greeted the person in the beige coat in front of him, “This is Qu Ning”.
Although it is not a formal introduction, everyone who knew about their marriage has heard of his name. He was a little surprised, and then followed Cheng Yuan and called out “Aunt” next, it was Cheng Yuan who spoke first, and then he followed Cheng Yuan to call someone.
When someone he didn’t know came up to say hello, he would let Cheng Yuan to greet the person only then he’d greet. If anyone didn’t know Cheng Yuan’s thoughts towards this marriage, they would almost think that they are happily married.
But he was still very grateful to Cheng Yuan for lending a helping hand in time. No matter what the reason was, it was considered to have helped him.
That night they slept in Cheng Yuan’s bedroom in the old family house. He didn’t know if it was arranged in advance, but the second quilt could not be found in the huge cabinet. He looked at Cheng Yuan who was holding a blanket and was about to cover himself and opened his mouth.
“Let’s share this quilt and get in the bed.” Looking at Cheng Yuan’s indifferent eyes, he said, “With this kind of blanket we’ll definitely catch a cold. Besides, your bed is so big that you can’t even cover one side with this blanket when you cover it with this blanket.”
Maybe it was too cold. Cheng Yuan really agreed with his suggestion that day and shared the quilt with him. Although there wasn’t a large distance in the middle, a little bit of cold air was getting inside, but he felt that they were far away from each other.
Although he woke up the next day, Cheng Yuan changed back to the usual Cheng Yuan. He lowered his eyes, this time Mother Cheng asked them to get to the family old house for some reason, but he guessed that her son could not get rid of it. Although Father Cheng was like colorful flags outside, he was clearly handling it as much as he could. At that time, if Cheng Yuan’s biological mother had not died of illness, she would never have been able to marry into the Cheng family. Cheng Yuan’s father also made a Will before his mother died. After her death, the company was inherited by Cheng Yuan, and his stepmother’s son only had a part of the equity and was waiting for dividends.
Cheng’s stepmother, who finally married into a wealthy family, was naturally reluctant. She originally followed the Cheng father without a name with the idea of letting her son inherit the Cheng family business.
She thought that the Cheng family would be their, mother and son’s, world in the future, but who
would have expected Cheng’s father to make a Will early on and notarize the property before marriage before she even married, almost shattering her dream, and of course, the trouble of finding Cheng Yuan, the heir, was inevitable.
Whether it was the troubles, big or small over the years, or their marriage. It’s just that she still has some means to stand out among many lovers. She didn’t cause much trouble for Cheng Yuan, but sometimes it can make him mad. The candidates for marriage were also deliberately selected.
Although they had similar family backgrounds, he could not help Cheng Yuan in his career. Even knowing Cheng Yuan’s attitude towards him, he repeatedly encouraged him to get close to each other with words. He was breaking his own heart by doing such things.
Fortunately, Cheng Yuan can be said to have been brought up by Mr. Cheng. with Mrs. Cheng in the old family house, Mrs. Cheng did not dare to blatantly use it. After all, Mr. Cheng once reprimanded her face to face for this matter, shaming her. She couldn’t even get close to the children she gave birth to, so even after being married for so long, the mother and son were still not in the family genealogy.
