Chapter 183 Eve of Wedding
"On my way back today, I saw Xin Lu and Xiao Lin hanging out with people from the Li family." Ling Zhuoqun originally didn't want to talk about this, but his intuition told him that it would be better to tell Li Luo about it.
Li Luo was surprised for a moment. He originally thought that the person who was fighting with Li Ailian was flirting with Li Ailian, but he didn't expect that there was something about Xin Lu and Ling Zhuolin involved.
"When I came back, I saw Li Ailian seemed to be playing with that man. I had never seen that man in our village before. I don't know who he is."
"That's Aunt Wang's child, Li Tieshuan. He had been out of town before and should have just returned in the past two days. I haven't seen him since he went out to work. This is the first time I've seen him."
"But it seems that Li Tieshuan and Xin Lu and Xiao Lin have a pretty good relationship. I just saw Li Tieshuan and Xin Lu holding hands."
"What's wrong? Is Brother Ling jealous? Xin Lu's heart is not with Brother Ling, and Brother Ling seems to feel a little regretful." Li Luo looked at Ling Zhuoqun teasingly, covering his mouth and laughing.
"Luoluo, you are making fun of me again. You just said you believed me." Ling Zhuoqun frowned slightly, obviously very dissatisfied with Li Luo's words.
"Although I don't have any romantic feelings for Xin Lu, Li Tieshuan doesn't look like a good person. I just want you to stay away from him so that he won't blackmail you."
The main point of Ling Zhuoqun's words was to remind Li Luo. After all, men understand men best. He could see the vulgar temperament that could not be concealed in Li Tieshuan.
"Brother Ling, are you worried about me?" Li Luo's heart trembled. She was originally teasing him about the past between him and Xin Lu, but now she found that Ling Zhuoqun's whole heart was indeed with her, which made her overjoyed.
"It's getting late. I'm leaving." Ling Zhuoqun turned his head away, not wanting Li Luo to see him losing his composure.
Li Luo was left standing there with a smile on his face.
"Mom, you're back!" Ling Xiaolei walked out of the room and immediately ran to Li Luo's side. Looking at Li Luo's red cheeks, he couldn't help but ask in confusion.
"Eh? Mom, do you have a fever?" Ling Xiaolei touched the back of Li Luo's hand and said, "It seems a little hot, Mom, I'll get a thermometer to measure your temperature."
Li Luo came back to his senses and quickly waved his hands: "No, I just have a little heat stroke, I just need some fanning."
"Then I'll go get a palm-leaf fan for mom." After saying that, Ling Xiaolei twisted his little butt and took the palm-leaf fan, fanning Li Luo meticulously.
……
For three consecutive days, whenever Li Luo had free time, he would run to Tang Qiqi's clothing store and stare at the decoration of the store.
A body beautifying mirror was bought and an incandescent lamp was installed. The mirror was tilted 65 degrees as Li Luo had said, which would make people look more beautiful and their legs longer. The walls were also painted white, making the overall look more simple.
A batch of white shirts that I had purchased from the garment factory had also arrived.
Li Luo put the embroidery pattern on it, and then used her superb skills to place maple leaves, daisies and other plant elements on the chest, and quickly produced a number of samples.
Li Luo also participated in the ribbon-cutting ceremony until the store reopened.
"Luoluo, thanks to you. If it weren't for you, my store would never have been so brand new!" Tang Qiqi held Li Luo's hands, feeling very excited.
"Since you hired me, I will naturally make you feel that I am worth your money." Li Luo looked at the results of his labor and was so happy.
The closer it got to the wedding, the more nervous she became. She could have been calm before, but now her feelings for Ling Zhuoqun were getting deeper and deeper, and sometimes she was easily seduced by Ling Zhuoqun. Now that she was busy, she felt less upset.
With the help of Ling Zhuoqun and his brothers, the decoration of the house has been completely renewed. Every corner of the house, the washbasin, the dressing table, and all the visible places are all pasted with wedding characters.
The wedding photos were also taken back and the huge wedding photo of the two was hung in Li Luo's bedroom. The remaining family photos and other photos were arranged irregularly on a clean wall, and the effect was quite good.
When Ling Xiaoguang and Ling Xiaolei returned home, they felt like they almost didn't recognize this home anymore.
Even the bed that had been made a few days ago has been placed in the bedroom. The brand new double bed looks more festive than the old iron bed. The wood is also brushed with wood wax oil to prevent it from drying out and cracking.
On the bed was a quilt weighing eight kilograms, which was made for Li Luo by Cheng Yuzhu with newly fluffed cotton.
The pattern on the bedding was mandarin ducks playing in the water, and the bed sheet was also covered in bright red. When Li Luo took Yaya to sleep at night, he had to put another bed sheet on top before he could sleep peacefully.
Ling Zhuoqun spent more and more time at home, and most of the time he was seen everywhere, which made Li Luo a little uncomfortable.
It’s like two people are getting married, but they are still in the stage of being in love, not like a newlywed couple at all.
So this made Li Luo a little distressed. No wonder they said that the husband and wife should not see each other for a week!
"Luoluo, you seem a little nervous. What's wrong? Don't you want to marry Mr. Ling?" Seeing her friend's absent-minded look, Tang Qiqi asked with concern.
Li Luo shook her head: "I'm fine. It's not that I don't want to marry Ling Zhuoqun. I just feel a little dreamy for a moment. I'm afraid that all this is fake."
"Don't worry, I felt the same way at the beginning, but the sweetness in my heart is greater than the nervousness when I marry the one I love." Tang Qiqi gently patted Li Luo's hand and comforted him.
Li Luo nodded slightly, turned around and got back to work.
Three days before the wedding, Li Luo returned to the Lin family. The Lin family had changed a lot at this time. There was an endless stream of relatives coming and going, all helping to steam buns, fry fish, and trying their best to prepare the meals. The fire on the stove never stopped.
Looking at the lively atmosphere, Lin Weiguo couldn't help but sigh: "It's been a long time since our family has been so lively. When Xiao Song got married before, there weren't so many relatives visiting."
After saying that, Lin Weiguo looked at Li Luo with moist eyes.
"Luoluo, Daddy hasn't spent much time with you yet. In the blink of an eye, you will be married. In the days ahead, you must learn to love yourself well. No matter what happens, the Lin family will always support you."
"Don't cry, don't cry. My daughter's marriage is a happy event. How can a father cry?" Cheng Yuzhu quickly spoke out to stop him.
It was the first time that Li Luo saw Lin Weiguo so moved, and for a moment she didn't know how to comfort this honest middle-aged man.
"Dad, don't worry, I can take care of myself." Li Luo looked into Lin Weiguo's eyes sincerely.
In a blink of an eye, it was the eve of the wedding. In addition to the two newlyweds who couldn't sleep, there was another person who couldn't sleep all night, and that was Xin Lu.
