Han Binglan felt like dying.
The person who shouted was Auntie Zhang. She lived opposite her house and had a good relationship with her mother, Gao Xiuying. Usually, when they were free, they would go to each other’s houses for tea and to munch on sunflower seeds. She only had one son who had just gotten into a junior high school in the city this year. He usually stayed in school and would come back on the weekends.
Auntie Zhang had always wanted a daughter, but she didn’t have one, so she cherished Le Yao very much. When she made delicious food and drinks, she would call Le Yao over to eat.
Sometimes, Le Yao would jokingly call her “mother”. She wouldn’t forget to buy her a portion of food and drinks too.
Since Han Binglan was here, she naturally had to maintain Le Yao’s relationships.
Just now, she was leaning against the window drying her clothes when she saw Han Binglan and Han Ye.
That loud voice, that excitement, it was as if her own daughter had found a partner.
As a result, her shout attracted the attention of several neighbors nearby. They all opened their windows. They stuck their heads out to greet Han Binglan.
Although the houses here were also commodity houses, they were all local residents and everyone was very familiar with one another. After Gao Xiuying moved here, she had a good relationship with everyone. They usually bought groceries and danced in the square together, so she knew each family very well.
“Yaoyao, your boyfriend is quite good-looking.” “Yaoyao, when did you get a boyfriend? What does he do?”
“Miss, does your mother know that you’re seeing someone?”
Han Binglan braced herself and exchanged greetings with everyone. Then, she hurriedly pulled Han Ye upstairs.
The corners of Han Ye’s lips curled up unconsciously.
On the third floor, before she could take out the key, Auntie Zhang opened the door and stared at Han Ye with bright eyes. ‘Young man, what’s your name? How old are you? Where are you from? How do you know our Yaoyao? How long have you been dating?”
Han Binglan wanted to hold her forehead.
“Hello, Auntie Zhang.” Han Ye nodded appropriately. “My name is Han Ye. I’m from Hong Kong. I’ve known Ah Yao for a long time. We registered our marriage today…’
“What?” Auntie Zhang’s eyes were about to pop out. She suddenly turned around and shouted into the house, “Old Li, come out quickly. Yaoyao has registered her marriage.”
Old Li was her husband.
At this moment, Gao Xiuying opened the door. “Why are you at the door? Old Zhang, I heard you shouting just now. I didn’t hear what you were saying because I was washing clothes in the toilet.”
Old Zhang pointed at Han Binglan and Han Ye. “They’ve registered their marriage.”
Five minutes later, Han Binglan and Han Ye sat side by side on the sofa. Opposite them were Le Jun, Gao Xiuying, and Auntie Zhang. She did not expect to meet Le Yao’s father like this.
There were two bright red marriage certificates on the coffee table in front of them.
“Tell me, what happened?” Le Jun grabbed Gao Xiuying’s hand, signaling her not to flare up. Then, he looked at his daughter and son-in-law.
“We’ve known each other for a long time…” Han Binglan pursed her lips and began to make up a story. “At that time, he came inland with a friend. I received him as a tour guide…”
Everyone nodded. This was reasonable.
“After that, we would occasionally contact each other by phone, but not long ago, he came inland to develop. We became close, then we felt that it was all good, so we got married…”
“You didn’t even say anything about such a big matter? You’re really…” Gao Xiuying glared.
“Mom,” Han Ye suddenly said.
Everyone’s expressions immediately became complicated.
“Mom, actually, I’m the one who…” Han Ye glanced at Han Binglan and reached out to hold her hand. “I fell in love with Ah Yao at first sight and pursued her. Because my grandmother’s health wasn’t good, she wanted to see her granddaughter-in-law with her own eyes, so we registered our marriage. Don’t worry, there will be the necessary procedures. I’ll treat Ah Yao well..
Han Binglan frowned. Wasn’t it because of his poor health?
Everyone probably felt that there was nothing they could do, so no one made things difficult for Han Ye. Of course, in Han Binglan’s opinion, it was probably because this guy was good-looking enough, so he immediately won over the hearts of his father-in-law and mother-in-law.
Auntie Zhang and Uncle Li didn’t say anything. Instead, they congratulated Gao Xiuying and Le Jun enviously and returned home.
After the outsiders left, Han Ye took out a bank card. “Father, Mother, this is my betrothal gift.”
“There’s no need.” Le Jun waved his hand. “Although our family isn’t rich, my daughter was raised delicately. She is very sensible. Since you’re married to her, just treat her well. As for the betrothal gifts, we don’t care. I’m marrying off my daughter, not selling her…”
Han Binglan felt a lump in her throat. These were her parents now.
“You don’t care, but I do. I married my wife to live a good life. If I don’t treat her well, who should I treat well?” Han Ye smiled. “However, the betrothal gifts are a must. This is what my Grandma said. After all, this also represents my attitude. Moreover, this bank card was opened with Mom’s name. The password is also Mom’s birthday.” As he spoke, he paused for a moment. “Ah Yao said that you are the one in charge at home.” “Haha, yes, your mother has the final say.” Le Jun laughed.
“From now on, Ah Yao will have the final say in our family.”
Le Jun and Gao Xiuying also smiled happily and took the bank card, but they didn’t take it seriously. They didn’t even ask about the amount. They thought that they would give this money back to Ah Yao in the future.
Just like that, the day after Han Binglan transmigrated, Le Yao became a married woman.
Three days later, Han Binglan handed the house key and the house deed to Gao Xiuying in Yue Hu Condo. Then, she flew to Hong Kong with Han Ye.
Actually, Han Ye’s grandfather was one of the people who went to the Southern Ocean back then. Later on, he started a business overseas and settled in England. After that, when he went to Hong Kong to do business, he fell in love with his wife at first sight and got married. Because Grandma Han was from Hong Kong, he went back and forth between Hong Kong and England.
Later, when Grandpa Han passed away, Grandma Han returned to Hong Kong to settle down.
But Han Ye’s parents still settled in England.
Grandma Han liked Han Binglan very much. As soon as they met, she put the glass imperial jade bracelet on her wrist. Han Binglan couldn’t refuse even if she wanted to.
After staying in Hong Kong for two days, Han Ye brought Han Binglan to England.
There, Han Binglan saw most of Han Ye’s relatives. Apart from his parents, there were also two uncles, Aunties, and Uncles. There were also five cousins.
In short, there were a lot of people.
Then, she sat in front of Han Ye like a vase.
Han Ye showed the marriage certificate. “This is my wife. I’ve always thought that I’m Chinese, so my wife must be Chinese. We’re also registered in China. It has legal effect..”
