Li Dong quickly put aside the matter of Hu Xiuzhu and her husband.
March 5th was Cao Feng's wedding day. Although Cao Feng and the others were not prepared to make a big deal out of it, and Li Dong was not prepared to be too ostentatious, they could not be careless.
Especially since the wedding was to be held in Pingchuan. This was because the Cao family felt that Li Dong's family had face.
At this time, no matter how low-key they were, they could not not even invite guests. Otherwise, they would lose face for the Li family.
Li Dong did not plan to invite people from the business world, but he still had to invite some people.
Qin Yuhan's family. Li Dong personally came to deliver the invitation.
After delivering the Qin family's invitation, Shen Qian also clamored to come. Although Li Dong had a headache, he did not dare to refuse.
Other than them, there was also Wang Jie's side.
Cao Feng did not have many friends in Pingchuan. He had been with Wang Jie for half a year, so these people had to be invited.
Li Dong specially gave Tang Kuan and the others two days off and urged them to attend.
Then there were some of Lin Meng's friends and former colleagues, plus relatives and family members from both sides. Finally, after some discussion, they made up eight tables.
When Li Dong drove home, Cao Fang was busy at home.
When she saw Li Dong return, Cao Fang hurriedly said, "Dongzi, come here. I have something to tell you."
Li Dong walked over. Cao Fang lowered her voice and said, "Dongzi, do you want to invite more people tomorrow?"
Li Dong asked curiously, "What's wrong? Is Uncle and the others not satisfied? "
Cao Fang shook her head and said, "Your uncle and the others are quite satisfied. The problem is with the Lin family. Although Lin Meng's parents didn't say it explicitly, when they met today, Lin Meng's mother specifically mentioned it. She said that it was too shabby to have only eight tables for a wedding with such a grand occasion.
Even if their families were so poor that they couldn't even feed themselves, they would still arrange at least twenty to thirty tables for their weddings.
At that time, your uncle was put in a difficult position, and I was also very upset.
After all, Ah Feng's marriage in Pingchuan is for our family.
I know Ah Feng, he's an honest person. Although he doesn't have much ability, he's still my nephew, your cousin.
Our relatives and friends from our hometown can't come even if they travel thousands of miles. No matter how big of a scene they put on in Pingchuan, it's all about our family's reputation.
Dongzi, why don't we add a few more tables? "
Seeing his mother looking at him with anticipation, Li Dong immediately understood what she meant.
After all, he was her own nephew, and his only nephew at that. His mother probably wasn't too happy about it.
In everyone's eyes, with how capable Li Dong was, even if they didn't dare to arrange a few hundred tables for their cousin's wedding, they would at least have a few dozen.
But now, there weren't even ten tables, and it was indeed too shabby.
Li Dong saw the situation and said helplessly, "Mom, since the Lin Family isn't satisfied, then just prepare a few more tables. Isn't it easy to get people? The people from your restaurant, Dongping people, and I'll invite some more people. It won't be difficult to get 20 tables. Actually, it's not that I can't bear to spend money, it doesn't cost much anyway. I thought that my cousin and cousin-in-law are reliable people and have done a good job. I didn't want to make it too big, or it wouldn't be good for us in the future. I didn't expect everyone to think that I'm stingy now. Don't you think that I'm wronged? Alright, since I still have time, I'll make a few calls. Isn't it just people? If not, I'll call people from Far away over. There will be a few hundred tables. "
Actually, Li Dong felt a little helpless. This matter had caused people to blame him.
There were some things that he didn't say. Originally, he wanted to let Cao Feng keep a low profile so that he could make arrangements in the future.
Far away, there weren't many people who knew about his relationship with Cao Feng. When the stock market was over, he would arrange a position for Cao Feng so that he could train for a few years, and then he would be able to rise up in the future.
Now, everyone wanted to make a big commotion.
Once the commotion was big, his relationship with Cao Feng probably wouldn't be able to be hidden anymore.
Although it didn't matter much to Li Dong whether he could hide it or not, it would still affect Cao Feng quite a bit.
Once he used the identity of Li Dong's cousin to enter Far away, then Cao Feng would have to be prepared to be looked down upon.
It was hard to say whether his cousin would be able to hold on. Anyway, in the end, the path that he had arranged for Cao Feng would be cut off.
However, when Li Dong thought about it, this was also human nature.
After all, marriage was a big event. Naturally, everyone wanted to be lively and have a bit more face.
The path that he had arranged for Cao Feng, Cao Feng actually wasn't really satisfied.
Since that was the case, then let it be lively for a while. Some people might pursue a stable life, and an ordinary future might be more suitable for Cao Feng.
…
In the afternoon, Li Dong made a lot of phone calls. Although he was getting married tomorrow, it was a bit rushed to say that he was treating today.
However, Li Dong personally called to invite him, which was enough face.
Except for those who were too busy to leave, almost all the people that Li Dong called to invite promised to come tomorrow.
After a busy afternoon, these things were finally settled.
Just as Li Dong heaved a sigh of relief, the doorbell rang.
He went forward to open the door and saw Cao Feng standing outside, sweating and panting.
Seeing this, Li Dong smiled and said, "Cousin, you are getting married tomorrow. Look at how nervous you are. Why didn't you decorate the new house?"
"The decorations over there are almost done. Wang Jie and Tang Kuan are working on it. Several of Xiaomeng's friends are also helping. I am here to invite you."
"Invite me?"
"In Jiangbei, don't we have to treat people to warm the room before the wedding? I have already told my aunt and uncle before. I forgot to tell you. Just as the decoration of the new house is almost done, let's drink together in the evening. "
Cao Feng smiled foolishly, but the smile was not very natural.
Li Dong knew what he meant at a glance. It was not that he forgot to tell him, but that he deliberately came to invite people.
He was probably afraid that Li Dong wouldn't go, so he didn't call.
Li Dong was a little helpless. Sometimes, it was not that he didn't care about it. Not being unfamiliar could solve some problems.
In everyone's eyes, Li Dong was a big shot.
And big shots were generally eccentric and maverick. If there was another point, it was probably that they were cold-blooded.
Obviously, in the eyes of many people, Li Dong was also the kind of cold.
Although Cao Feng was his cousin, he really didn't know much about his cousin. He only knew that he was very powerful.
Cao Feng didn't understand other things, but he had experienced the stock market from beginning to end.
In half a year's time, his cousin had easily earned more than a billion yuan.
If this number was spread out, it would definitely scare a lot of people to death.
The more Cao Feng knew about Li Dong, the more he felt that his cousin was really powerful!
In addition, Li Dong usually didn't have much contact with people, so he seemed a little aloof. Therefore, Cao Feng specially came to invite him to warm the room.
After all, Li Dong was the most important person on the groom's side. If he didn't come, others might have other ideas.
Although he wanted to tell his cousin that he thought too much, Li Dong was really too lazy to explain. It was meaningless to explain. If everyone could understand, then so be it. If not, then forget it.
Seeing Cao Feng's face full of expectation, Li Dong nodded and said, "I will change my clothes. I will go with you later."
Cao Feng breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Okay, I will wait for you. Anyway, there's no hurry. It's still early."
"My parents have already gone?"
"Yes, the warm the room is at the Dongfang Fishing Village. Aunt and uncle are all there."
"They didn't even inform me when they left." Li Dong smiled and then shouted to his grandmother on the balcony, "Grandma, are you not going to cousin's warm the room tonight?"
Li Dong's grandmother leaned on the rocking chair and said lightly, "No, don't invite me to the wedding banquet. It will make the atmosphere less joyful."
Li Dong was a little speechless, and Cao Feng also said helplessly, "Forget it. Grandma can rest at home."
Li Dong's grandmother had a habit of never attending wedding banquets, whether it was for outsiders or family members.
When Li Dong's uncle got married, his grandmother refused to attend.
According to the old woman, she had experienced too many strange things in her life, so she was too evil. Usually, it didn't affect her much, but if the blessing was too strong during the wedding banquet, it would easily cause a conflict.
Of course, this was not the specific meaning. Anyway, this was the general meaning.
The family was now used to it. Only Li Dong was not used to it, so he asked casually. Otherwise, no one would ask this at all. It was useless to ask.
Ignoring his mysterious grandmother, Li Dong changed his clothes and went to the Dongfang Fishing Village with Cao Feng.
…
There were not many people at the greenhouse wine in the evening.
It was Li Dong's family, the Cao family, and Wang Jie.
Lin Meng was not working in the restaurant today. Two days ago, Li Dong sent the Lin family to the hotel to settle down.
Li Dong's uncle and parents ate quickly because they were busy in the evening. It didn't take long for the banquet to end.
Finally, only Li Dong's table was still eating. After a few rounds of drinking, Wang Jie joked, "Dongzi, now that my cousin is married, you are the only one left. When can I drink your greenhouse wine?"
"What's the hurry? Do you think I'm like you? I'll be a father in my early twenties, a grandfather in my forties, and a great-grandfather in my sixties."
Wang Jie was speechless. After a while, he said, "Are you sure that my son and grandson will also have babies at the age of twenty?"
"According to your temper, the possibility is very high."
"Get lost! What do you mean by my temper? My temper is better than yours. "
Wang Jie laughed and scolded. Then he said to Cao Feng, "Cousin, when you and my sister-in-law give birth to a big fat boy, this guy will be envious. Let's see if he's anxious."
Cao Feng smiled and did not speak.
Li Dong smiled and said, "Yes, I want to have a baby as soon as possible. Cousin, work harder and try to let me hold my nephew next year. In my life, I have never been an elder to others. It's not easy to recognize a son. His father treats him like a treasure and won't let him touch him. When my sister-in-law gives birth, she will be my nephew. You won't object to touching her, right? "
Cao Feng suddenly smiled and said, "No objection, no objection. You can touch him as much as you want."
Next to him, Wang Jie also said with a smile, "You haven't been an elder in this life. You said it as if you were an elder in your previous life."
Li Dong chuckled under the influence of alcohol. "You don't say, I really did in my previous life. But it's a pity that I didn't meet him. So in this life, I actually like children. "
Wang Jie and Cao Feng thought he was joking, so they did not take it seriously.
But only Li Dong knew that he was not joking.
In his previous life, he was in his early thirties. Although he was not married, Li Nanming and Li Qing were married.
But at that time, the two sides broke up and almost never contacted each other. In addition, Cao Feng and Li Dong did not have any contact in his previous life, so he naturally did not give people the opportunity to be an elder.
Li Dong was not lying when he said that he liked children. Sometimes he really envied those who had children.
Unfortunately, in his previous life and this life, he did not have this opportunity to hold his own children.
The reason why Li Dong was willing to take in Tian Xiaoyu and Little Shitou was probably related to this.
Of course, there was no need to explain this to everyone.
Looking at Cao Feng's happy face, Li Dong smacked his lips. Should he also solve the major event in his life?
Sometimes when he thought about it, it was actually quite happy to have a wife and children.
But when he thought about his love life, Li Dong sighed. It was a mess. Marriage would be left for later.
That night, Li Dong drank a lot.
When he went back, it was Wang Jie who sent him home. Before entering the door, Li Dong suddenly asked, "Do you still think about Chen Yue now? Do you regret it? "
Wang Jie was stunned for a moment, then he smiled and said, "The past is the past. You, a single man, don't understand. When you really get married and have children, you will feel that there is actually nothing you can't let go."
"Really?"
Li Dong murmured and then did not speak again. That night, Li Dong did not sleep well.
