After the two ca out, Sun Chan went to the telegraph office to contact Wang Dan. She hadn’t been in touch with her for a long ti, but she had to tell her about her wedding. She said that if it was convenient, she would invite her to the wedding.
"Back then, if Wang Dan hadn’t taken in to live in the city, I wouldn’t have settled down so smoothly," she said earnestly.
Gu Junming said, "Hmm, if she can’t co, we’ll send her so things."
After finishing these tasks, it was already noon. The two ate two bowls of knife-cut noodles, chatting while eating, discussing the wedding day details.
In the afternoon, they bought at and chives, planning to make dumplings.
Wang Shufen was tidying up the house with Ding Kang. Sun Chan would leave from here to get married, considering it her maiden ho. She hadn’t been to the fruit stand in the past two days and had Yang Liu help watch it.
Seeing the two co back loaded with bags, Wang Shufen quickly greeted them, "Bought so much?"
"Yes, there’s so much I want to buy. Marriage is really extravagant," Sun Chan laughed.
Wang Shufen hurriedly said, "It’s not wasteful at all, these are all necessary items. So of these things will be with you for a lifeti, like this basin stand and dressing table."
Sun Chan nodded, thinking to herself, big sis really is frugal, planning to use things for thirty years?
At this mont, Ding Kang ca in holding a big bag of candies, "Mom, look, there’s sothing tasty!"
He’s been in the city for a year now and has adapted to city life, becoming much more outgoing.
"Don’t touch them, you can’t eat them now!" Wang Shufen smacked her son’s butt.
Ding Kang laughed, "I know, I won’t eat them, I’ll take them inside!"
"Be careful, don’t drop them on the ground," Wang Shufen said protectively like a mother hen guarding her chicks, very amusing.
Sun Chan thought for a mont and suddenly exclaid, "Oh no, did we buy peanuts and lon seeds?"
"No problem, isn’t there a shop at Guihua’s place? She’ll get them for us, and my grandpa can also get so good creamy candies, but not too many. We’ll prepare so regular candies too. At that ti, give them to family mbers to take ho and eat. Also, get a few good cigarettes."
Sun Chan nodded, feeling all jumbled inside; there’s so much to do with the wedding approaching!
Then she asked when Father Wang and Mrs. Wang would co over. Wang Shufen heard from that room and ca out laughing, "They said they won’t co, they’re too old, taking the train is too exhausting."
Gu Junming was putting things away, and paused when he heard this. He understood the difficulty for the two. He had a father, a stepmother, and his grandfather was still around.
If they ca that day, who would sit in the main seat?
Sun Chan thought to herself, these two really are good people, afraid the kids would be uncomfortable, they simply didn’t co.
Gu Junming thought for a while and said, "During the New Year, we’ll return ho. Let’s take more wedding photos and send them along with the clothes and shoes we’ve prepared for them."
Sun Chan could only nod and say, "That’s okay."
These years, the relationship between Gu Junming and Gu Zishan has been pretty good. Although rarely going back, he could feel that his father genuinely wanted to reconcile.
In the evening, Yang Zhen ca with Sun Chan’s wedding dress. Not many people wore wedding dresses in those days, especially considering Gu Junming was in the military, so Sun Chan designed a red suit dress. She drew the design herself; the top featured red intertwined flowers, while the skirt was made of flowing materials with lace edges, very beautiful. After completing the design, she had factory workers make it. As soon as Yang Zhen entered, she urged Sun Chan to try it on.
"I’ve admired it all the way here; it’s really beautiful," Yang Zhen laughed. Her own wedding dress looked good, but this one seed elegant and simple.
Sun Chan laughed, "This is great. Do I really need to try it on?"
"Of course, what if the size isn’t right? Go try it on, and if it’s not okay, we can fix it quickly."
Sun Chan took the dress inside, while the others stayed outside chatting lively. Yang Zhen was munching on lon seeds, discussing the wedding arrangents with Gu Junming and asked who would be the bridesmaid.
"A few of my close friends are already married, how about asking Yang Zhen to help?"
Gu Junming nodded, "Sure, find soone ticulous, who can take care of her."
"No problem. I have a colleague who just got assigned here. She’s just right," Yang Zhen laughed, "You better treat her well, if you upset her, I won’t take it lightly."
Gu Junming smiled, "Should I introduce her to soone? Our army has many unmarried good n."
Yang Zhen laughed joyfully, "That would be great. Actually, marriage is a good thing, but so people, when jealous, act foolishly, always stirring trouble to hurt others and themselves."
Gu Junming grunted and slightly frowned, "Don’t worry, we’ll keep an eye on her."
Everyone knew who they were talking about.
Previously, Sun Lijuan and Zhao Xiuxia had been locked up, not a threat, but Yang Yun kept boasting outside. This ti, Sun Chan was getting married, and it was said she was coming back, so vigilance was needed.
Yang Zhen wanted to say more, but Sun Chan had already co out. They quickly went to look. Gu Junming saw how dazzling Sun Chan looked and grinned. His little wife was getting prettier, and he felt blessed. Everyone else praised her constantly.
Ding Kang also laughed, "Auntie is beautiful!"
Sun Chan had beco more curvaceous recently, appearing more shapely with fair skin, the red dress making her even prettier.
While helping her change, Yang Zhen laughed, "You look so lovely, you’ll surely amaze everyone!"
Sun Chan laughed, "Actually, I don’t like red, but thinking it’s a once-in-a-lifeti event, I should wear it."
While Sun Chan’s wedding countdown was on, there was a sudden change on Gu Junming’s side; they were ordered to support the neighboring province.
He said, "The flood crisis this year is very severe, and the higher-ups want to gather manpower to help build dikes there. Additionally, materials need to be transported. We’re asked for full support. The leader’s intention is for everyone to go. Those with special circumstances should report them and submit nas, but I don’t want to make exceptions."
Yan Kai actually advised him, "I think you should talk to the higher-ups. Surely, you can’t leave on the third day after your wedding?"
Gu Junming shook his head, refusing, "No, Wang Hu has already led troops over there, it’s just you and left here. Liao Dongyuan has to go to another city too, he just got married recently, and he’s saying nothing either, so how can I not go?"
"That’s quite hard on Sun Chan," Yan Kai said.
Gu Junming said, "She will understand . Being a military spouse is tough."
Although he said Sun Chan would understand, he still didn’t know how to tell her. They had planned to go hiking and fishing for fun, but now they could only stay ho for two days.
