Chapter 43 A fake wedding for grandma

Xiao Li returned home listlessly, and his elder brother-in-law had already called back to tell everyone that Xiao Zhang and Xiao Li had no chance.

"It's over, it's over, I'm from all corners and neighbors. I found an unmarried girl so hard, but I didn't like it now. What do you think?" My mother shouted as soon as she saw her son coming back.

"What else can I do if I don't get married? I didn't want to get married." Xiao Li was really angry with Xiao Zhang, a woman. She has a daughter in her teens and is so awesome to choose a husband. If Xiao Li had seen her more than ten or twenty years ago, she would never see such a woman, let alone marry such a woman.

"Dong,,,,,,"

The sound of a cup falling to the ground was heard from grandma's room. Everyone calmed down within a second and then rushed into grandma's room together.

Xiao Li grabbed grandma's hand and said, "Grandma, do you want to drink water? Call me if you want to drink water!"

"Do you don't want to get married again?" Grandma said in a weak voice.

"No, I'll get married tomorrow." Xiao Li said very happily.

"Really? I want to see that girl now." Grandma finally smiled, but she was very weak.

"Grandma, you're so anxious. See her tomorrow! She's back today." Xiao Li grabbed grandma's hand and said with a smile.

"I'm afraid that I will never wake up again as soon as I fall asleep." Grandma said in a weak voice.

"No, grandma is in such a good health, she will definitely live for another ten or twenty years without any problem." Xiao Li said deceivingly, holding her grandma's lifeless hand.

"You guy who can coax your grandma, I don't know if you can hold on until tomorrow to see your wife." Grandma's faint voice, then she tried hard to squeeze out a smile.

Everyone felt the urge to cry when they saw grandma leaving at any time.

"Grandma, you have a good rest. I'll prepare for tomorrow's wedding. I will definitely take my wife to see you tomorrow." Xiao Li said as he walked out of grandma's room, tears couldn't help but shed in his eyes.

"The wedding is easy, but where can I find a bride for my grandma to see?" The family sat together and whispered to discuss what to do about this matter.

"Isn't it popular to rent boyfriends and girlfriends now? Are there anyone renting brides?" Xiaoli said while looking through her phone.

"We can't really hold a wedding banquet. Others will misunderstand that the boy is already married, and it will be even more difficult to find a partner in the future." My mother said sadly.

"We can claim to be the 70th birthday for my mother and invite everyone in the village to have dinner. Anyway, the grandma slept in the room and didn't know whether it was a wedding banquet or a birthday banquet so lively outside." said the second sister.

"You can have no bride to the outside world, but you have to find a bride to show it to the grandma!" said the third sister, shook her head.

"Yes! Where can I find a bride?"

Everyone was in thought, and no one spoke for a while, quietly.

"Now your grandmother is only thinking about that boy and his wife. She doesn't remember the others. In fact, we will believe it if we just find someone who is a woman and tell her that she is her granddaughter-in-law." My mother said sadly.

"That's right. I went to see the grandma several times, but she didn't recognize who I am." said the eldest sister.

"That's easy to deal with. Tomorrow we just go in alone and tell her that it is her granddaughter-in-law." The second sister said happily.

"But I think it's not good to lie to the grandma like this!" said the third sister unbearably.

"It's better to lie to her than to die with her eyes open," said the fourth sister.

"This is called a lie of goodwill." Xiaoli said in agreement.

"It will be too troublesome to have a banquet tomorrow. If you prepare and cook your own dishes, it will be too troublesome. We might as well invite the restaurant to hold a banquet at home." said the elder sister.

"Now people ask hotels to serve their banquets, and not many people do it themselves." said my dad.

"Go and book now, and you'll have a drink tomorrow. I don't know if the restaurant can be done." said the third sister.

My elder brother-in-law drove my dad to a restaurant in the town to book a banquet. Two hours later, the hotel sent someone to pull the tools to the door and promised that he would definitely make all the food he had booked tomorrow.

"The hotel is very efficient now!" said the elder sister, looking at the table and stools brought to the hotel.

"In such a short time, can they prepare all the ingredients?" said the second sister.

"The hotel owner said there is absolutely no problem. They have worked with the plantation and food processing plants for a long time. The ingredients will be delivered to the door with just a phone call. There is no need to run around to find the ingredients." said my father.

"I have notified the villagers that they come to our house for dinner tomorrow night and must hold the banquet and not lose our face." My mother emphasized.

"Tomorrow is to celebrate your birthday, and I can't lose your face. The hotel has promised to handle it for us. If it is done, they will not charge any money." said my dad.

"That's good. We haven't had a wedding for many years. This time we've held a wedding for bad luck." said my mother.

"Mom, don't worry! The banquet will be left to the hotel people to do tomorrow, just dress yourself up as the most beautiful birthday star." The eldest sister said with her arms around her shoulders.

The eldest sister hugged her mother and realized that she was so thin that she had only one skeleton left, a skeleton left with only skin and bones. I did it right to help her mother celebrate this birthday. My mother, who is getting older every year, doesn’t know when she will go there.

The nights in the countryside come very early, and the sun slowly disappears on one side of the mountain. People who work outside will return home, and no one will go out for fun anymore. A very small number of people who go out go out to catch wild game on the mountain and fish in the ditch.

It was late tonight and Xiao Li had insomnia. He slept in bed and was unable to sleep.

"Get up and have a walk." Xiao Li said to himself, getting out of bed and opening the door and walking out.

"Mom, what are you doing?" As soon as Xiao Li opened the door, he saw his mother kneeling on the ground and kowtowed.

When my mother saw Xiao Li, she stood up and said, "I heard that it is the most effective way to burn incense and pray to God at midnight. I beg all kinds of gods to give you a wife. I have been begging for more than ten years, but God still hasn't helped me. Isn't I sincere enough?"

Xiao Li looked at his watch and it was already 0:30 now. In order for him to marry a wife, my mother never slept here for 30 minutes, year after year.

Xiao Li covered his face with his hands, and tears flowed out from his fingers. At this moment, he really regretted why he was so selfish before and only cared about his own feelings. He never thought about how deep the elders loved him, and never thought about how many things the elders did behind his back to seek a wife for him.

"Silly kid, why are you crying? It's nothing that mom does such a small thing. Mom believes that mom's sincerity will definitely move all kinds of gods, and they will definitely give you a bride." Mom comforted Xiao Li and said.

"Mom, I won't cry, let's go back and rest!" Xiao Li originally wanted to advise her to have a good rest in the future and not do these boring things, but he knew that as long as he didn't get married for a day, her mother would keep silently praying for him behind her back to God to give him a wife.

When Xiao Li returned to the room, he was not sleepy at all. He stood in front of the window and looked at the night outside the window in silence. The orange tree outside the window was planted by him when he was born, which meant that he would be lucky. The orange tree that grew arbitrarily without pruning has now become a towering tree, and many oranges are born every year. Xiao Li suddenly felt that it would be better to plant an orange tree than to give birth to him. His mother was worried about him and marrying a wife and did not get any benefit from her son. The orange tree was planted there and allowed it to be in the wind and rain, but it produced so many oranges for everyone to eat and use every year.

Xiao Li looked at the orange tree outside the window, and suddenly grabbed his fist and punched him hard on the table. He suddenly realized something, and he was not even as good as the orange tree.

Xiao Li was blaming and regretting and frustrated all night. During the sunny day, Xiao Li smiled and told himself that he could not bring his sad expression to others. He should smile happily and give others a happy feeling. Even if he pretended, he should pretend to be very happy.

The hotel professionals are very efficient and have reasonable work assignments. They are also very skilled in work and move quickly. They kill a chicken in just a flash of eyes. They peel the carrot skin so quickly that they can't see how she peeled it.

Seeing the hotel staff working in an orderly manner and all the ingredients needed were all received, everyone was finally relieved. Especially her mother, she said happily: "It seems that today's banquet will definitely end successfully."

"That's a must. Mom, go and chat with the aunts and grandpas. I'll see them and leave this banquet to me!" The second sister pulled her to the old men and grandpas.

Xiao Li went to his grandmother's room early in the morning and said to her, "Today is my wedding day. Are you happy, grandma?"

Grandma's complexion looks worse today than yesterday. It can be seen that grandma opened her mouth very hard to speak, but she could no longer speak. She just tried hard to squeeze out a little smile to prove that she was very happy.

"Grandma, don't talk, have a good rest. I know you must be very happy for me." Xiao Li grabbed grandma's hand tightly and said, "He knew grandma was really leaving him this time. Grandma's hand became even colder and there was no strength at all.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, according to the village’s wedding customs, the bride is about to enter the door at this time.

"Have you ever thought about who is going to the grandma's place to pretend to be a bride?" Xiao Li asked several sisters.

"Of course, Xiaoli is going! Xiaoli has no blood relationship with us, so it is best for her to go." The eldest sister looked at Xiaoli and said.

"Xiaoli should be your wife." My mother mentioned the old story again.

"We said we won't talk about those old things." Xiao Li said to his mother unhappily.

"I'll go, I'll go." Xiaoli said loudly.

"Thank you." Xiao Li said to Xiao Li with a smile.

"We are a family, so why do you say thank you?" Xiaoli said.

"Now firecrackers are set off. After the firecrackers stop, Xiaoli, please follow me in to see the grandma. Just tell the grandma that you are her granddaughter-in-law." Xiaoli said.

"I remember." Xiaoli nodded and said.

The firecrackers burned for five minutes before stopping, and Xiao Li and Xiao Li entered grandma's room together.

"Grandma, my wife and I are here to see you." Xiao Li squatted down and grabbed his grandmother's hand and said.

"Grandma, look at me, I am your granddaughter-in-law!" Xiaoli said sweetly.

Grandma's eyelids moved hard, opened and closed again, and her face smiled softly.

"Grandma, you have a good rest, we're out." Xiao Li and Xiao Li left grandma's room.

When he left the door, his mother looked at Xiaoli and whispered: "You have a bad relationship with Liu Fan now. You might as well divorce Liu Fan and marry Xiao Li."

"Mom, don't say anything like this in the future. Xiaoli has always been my sister. She used to be, now, and in the future." Xiaoli said with a dark face.

When my mother looked at her son's stubborn temper, she could only shake her head and sigh.

What is true love? True love means silently giving behind your back, and you don’t know at all.
