Chapter 529 Wedding Preparation
Although there are people staying to look after the Li Garden now, without the lively atmosphere of the owner’s family, the empty garden seems particularly quiet and lonely.
Li Jiawei had felt the warmth of Li Garden, so every time she went to Li Garden to pay homage to her grandmother and saw the dilapidated state of Li Garden, she felt heavy-hearted.
Li Jiawei came back to her senses and asked, "Where are my sister-in-law and the two children? Aren't they home either?"
Jing Qiu said, "Your sister-in-law has taken the two children back to her parents' home. The house is in a mess now. If the children were at home, they would definitely run around the house. It's too unsafe."
Li Jiawei originally wanted to talk to Jing Qiu and then tell her the news of her pregnancy, but after just a few minutes, she couldn't stay any longer.
Jing Qiu was so busy that they had only talked for a few words when people kept interrupting them. One moment someone was holding something and asking where to put it, and the next moment someone was asking about the placement of another item.
Seeing someone else coming, he called Jing Qiu away.
Li Jiawei felt a little annoyed. She looked at Xiao Yi and felt that there was no need to stay any longer. Staying would only cause trouble. So she said goodbye to the servants and left the villa.
Walking out of the villa, next door is Li Xuanbao's residence, which is also a lively scene. Staff from the wedding company are coming in and out, holding all kinds of wedding decorations in their hands.
Li Jiawei immediately noticed that the door that originally connected the two villas was gone, and even the dividing wall had been knocked down. Now the two plots of land were suddenly connected without any obstruction.
Seeing this scene, Li Jiawei curled the corners of her mouth and let out an ambiguous smile. There was a bit of sarcasm and disappointment in that smile. Then she said nothing and pulled Xiao Yi into the car.
On the other side, Jing Qiu finally finished the chores at hand and returned to the tea room, only to see an empty room.
The seat where Li Jiawei had sat before was empty. The cup of tea on the table was still full, but no one had taken a sip. The curling hot steam had long dissipated, leaving only the slightly cool liquid in the cup.
Jing Qiu quickly called the servant and asked, "Where are Jiawei and Xiaoyi? When did they leave? Why didn't they tell me?"
The servant replied respectfully: "Miss Jiawei and Mr. Xiao saw that you were too busy, so they left."
Hearing this answer, Jing Qiu sighed, waved his hand gently, and signaled the servant to leave.
She sat on the sofa, and the air around her seemed to become quiet.
She didn't tell Jiawei why the house was so messy just now, but she knew in her heart that with Jiawei's intelligence, she must understand everything.
She didn't say anything, and Jiawei didn't ask either. After all, the relationship was a little unfamiliar.
The time they spent together was short, and the next afternoon Xiao Yi left Xishi and rushed back to the crew. After all, he couldn't let the crew of hundreds of people disrupt their original work plans because of him.
It is a rare opportunity to steal a little time to relax and spend nearly two days with Jiawei at home.
Li Xuanbao's wedding was scheduled for the sixth day of the Lunar New Year. Li Xuanbao had someone send her an invitation. The delicate gold-plated patterns sparkled in the sun, but Li Jiawei didn't even open it and just put it on the coffee table. She would not attend her wedding.
I guess Li Xuanbao sent her the invitation just as a gesture, and she probably didn't want her to go.
Li Jiawei learned from Uncle Liang that Li Xuanbao and Li Yan had reached a cooperation agreement.
At first, Li Jiawei wanted to take advantage of Li Xuanbao's tight capital chain to get a share of her share in the old city renovation project in Qionglin District.
But she didn't expect that big brother Li Yan would join the game in a strong way. She was afraid that she would have no chance to reap the benefits.
So Li Jiawei thought about it and gave up her original idea. Since the situation has changed, there is no point in spending time and effort on planning.
The person who was most happy about Li Xuanbao's marriage and leaving the Li family villa was He Zhizhou's mother Jiang Qin.
These days, she has been smiling all the time.
Li Ronghua and Jing Qiu, a couple, also sent out invitations in the capacity of the bride's parents, inviting many relatives and friends to attend Li Xuanbao's wedding.
As soon as the news spread, everyone knew that the He family and the Li family in Xishi were getting married.
As a lawyer, He Zhizhou has frequent interactions with public security, procuratorial and judicial departments in his daily work.
When he thought about how after he married Li Xuanbao, he would have the identity of Li family's son-in-law, it would surely be much more convenient for him to work in the future.
So, on the basis of the original guest list, she added the names of many old colleagues and leaders.
It was only after she retired that she truly experienced what it meant to be forgotten by others.
In the past, when she wanted to ask her old colleagues and leaders for help, they either said they were busy or were perfunctory in their attitude.
She has a strong sense of self-esteem and doesn't want to curry favor with others and be looked down upon, so she didn't plan to send invitations to these people before her son's wedding.
But now it’s different. Li Xuanbao got married in style as the daughter of the Li family in Xishi.
She knew that with Li Hongxing's connections, if she handed out invitations to those people now, they would definitely give face to the Li family and come to attend the wedding.
After all, it’s not a bad thing for them to have a relationship with the Li family.
Li Ronghua specially called his elder brother Li Hongxing, hoping that he could come back to attend the wedding and join in the fun.
As a result, Li Hongxing dismissed him lightly with a simple statement "I need to go to the grassroots to conduct research".
Although Li Ronghua felt a little disappointed, he didn't know what to say.
However, Li Hongxing thought that Li Xuanbao was a child who grew up under his care, so after much thought, he decided to give her a dowry.
But he knew in his heart that in terms of closeness, Li Xuanbao could never compare to Jiawei. After careful consideration, he gave a red envelope of 5,000 yuan and asked Li Ronghua to give it to Li Xuanbao as a token of his appreciation.
Li Chengwei arrived in Xishi on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year. Li Jiawei asked the driver to pick him up at the airport.
When Li Chengwei returned home, Li Jiawei opened the door and saw him. She couldn't help but burst out laughing and joked, "Brother, where have you been? Why are you so tanned?"
Li Chengwei subconsciously reached out and touched his face, only to find that his skin was rough. He smiled and said, "How can I not get dark after running in the wild every day?"
Li Chengwei has always been a person with ambitions and aspirations in his career.
In the past, he had a lot of ambitions but never encountered the right opportunities. Even though he was full of disappointment, he could only accept the reality and sigh helplessly.
But now, the opportunity is right in front of him, how could he let it go easily? Naturally, he grabbed it tightly, going through wind and rain, and trying his best to achieve something.
Moreover, in the army, many people of his age have already reached the regimental level or above, but he has just reached this level, which is indeed late.
In order to make up for his age disadvantage, he had to work harder than others.
While others were resting, he was studying tactics and improving his skills. Fortunately, his efforts were not in vain.
