The old Taoist continued, "The way to solve this problem is to find someone with good luck before the age of 34. After the tribulation and your 34th birthday, you can dissolve the marriage. Then, your life will turn from bad luck to good luck and everything will become better. "
Grandma Zhou and Old Lady Zhou were so scared that they broke out in a cold sweat and almost fainted. Having a mistress, having children, and heirs were all out of the way. Staying alive was more important!
Because Wang Ningning married Zhou Bocan as soon as she graduated, she was afraid that people would think she was married. So, she said that they would only hold a banquet and get the marriage certificate in the future. In that case, Zhou Baican was at most half a diamond bachelor. Originally, he could have just gotten his marriage certificate back. However, Wang Ningning was in the entertainment industry and her life was on fire. She was also fated to be short of water. How could she help Zhou Baican?
Zhou Bocan did not take the old Taoist's words to heart. But he knew his grandmother and mother too well. They believed that if they were not restrained, they could do anything.
"Madam Zhou, I suggest you find a reliable surrogacy agency and give your eldest son to grandma. Don't mention having a mistress. If the company leaders find out, they will think that I have a moral problem and I will be fired. "
"That's not enough." Old Lady Zhou sat on the sofa and sighed. Since she gave birth to Zhou Bocan, she had been told by the experts that he was born with a noble life and that he would never have to worry about food and clothing. But suddenly, the situation changed and he was told that he was facing a great tribulation and had a short life. As his mother, how could she not be worried? Her son had always been her pride. She gave up her job early and became a housewife for decades. She worked hard and did everything she could to raise her son. She could not tolerate others saying that he was in danger.
She only had one son. Now, even if she was asked to find a few bags of bloody steamed buns like Hua Laoshuan and his wife in Lu Xun's novel, she would do it to save her beloved son's life.
Zhou Bocan could understand that no words could persuade the descendants of the Taoist temple not to be superstitious. After all, the faith was deeply rooted.
He put his arm around Old Lady Zhou's shoulder and patted her lightly, "Our City God Temple's Protective Talisman is so effective, let the old Taoist priest open a few so that I can carry it with me. Don't even think about other methods. If Wang Ningning finds out and wants a divorce, don't blame me for not being able to protect the celebrity daughter-in-law of your dreams. "
Old Lady Zhou is a person who advocates optimism. At this time, tears are swirling in her eyes. Other than tears of being moved, she rarely cries in the past few years. When she went to the hospital for a physical examination, the doctor also suspected that she has a problem with her lacrimal glands.
She choked with sobs and tears rolled down her face. As it turned out, there were no obstacles.
"I'm not important. You can make your own decisions. But, son, your body, hair, and skin are given by your parents. Are you heartless to see your mother not eating well and sleeping well? Just listen to your grandmother and find a woman with a lot of water. Get a marriage certificate. If you don't see her, she won't see you either. Pretend to be married for half a year. When you're 34 years old, get a divorce immediately. Then, discuss with Ning Ning when to get a marriage certificate. You can live a peaceful life. You didn't cheat, so Ning Ning will understand! "
Zhou Bocan was puzzled, "Why do you sound so sure? Don't tell me that the two of you have found a partner behind my back? "
Old Lady Zhou's mouth twitched as she smiled, but her mouth kept denying, "Not yet … How can it be so fast? We haven't even gotten married yet. Don't worry, I'll convince Ning Ning."
In a mother's eyes, no matter how old their children are, they will always see them as children. Old Lady Zhou was a typical example. Her eyes were filled with motherly love. She promised again and again, "You don't have to show up. Your uncle is now a high-ranking official in the Civil Affairs Bureau. I'll send the materials over, and the marriage certificate will be in my hands in less than a minute."
Zhou Bocan pursed his lips. He knew that they wouldn't give up if he didn't make trouble. After all, his family was in charge of the Shing Wong Temple. If they didn't believe in it, how could they convince others to believe in it?
Old Lady Zhou was fast and urgent. Wen Liangliang had just agreed yesterday, but she called the next day. She said concisely, "Civil Affairs Bureau, I'll see you there!"
Wen Liangliang went to look for her during her lunch break. When she arrived at the entrance of the Civil Affairs Bureau, her arm was grabbed by a stranger with a scarf covering her face.
Wen Liangliang wanted to resist, but the person's sunglasses fell down, revealing a familiar look. Before she could shout, Wen Liangliang was pulled into the convenience store next to the Civil Affairs Bureau.
Old Lady Zhou pulled down the scarf covering her face. She said nervously, "My son is rushing over. Give me his identity card."
Then, she took out the contract from her handbag. "Miss Wen, I'm really grateful that you didn't take a single cent. You sacrificed so much to help my son. I trust you 100%, so I asked my lawyer relative to draft a document to give you a guarantee. "
Old Lady Zhou blinked her eyes and embarrassedly said: "There are a few restrictions that were proposed by my daughter-in-law. They are all trivial details. You don't need to worry about them … … But there is one that is very important. You can't see my son. You can't let him know that you are the fake marriage partner."
"Oh … That's a very reasonable request. No problem!" Wen Liangliang glanced at the supplementary regulations. Then, she took out a pen and was about to sign it.
Old Lady Zhou stopped her nervously. Then, she opened the contract and pointed at a line of words. "This is a one-sided idea. I was afraid that my daughter-in-law would be afraid that you're unmarried and good-looking. So, I lied and said that you were already married when you were studying in Australia. But you didn't get a marriage certificate in China, so they didn't recognize you as a married woman. So, we took advantage of this loophole. I need you to cooperate with me in this lie. "
Wen Liangliang looked leisurely. She flipped to the signature area and finished it without hesitation.
Old Lady Zhou was deeply touched. This girl was too kind. Her son was so lucky that he could meet such a savior. After explaining the important things, Old Lady Zhou took a breath and laughed comfortably.
In the Civil Affairs Bureau, there was a handsome man walking in circles. He seemed to be looking for someone. All the ladies were looking at him. They were curious about what kind of beauty his partner was. However, it was to no avail. The man sat on the stool for five minutes. Then, he got up and walked out. Looking at his back, he seemed to be going to the convenience store next door.
In the convenience store, Wen Liangliang licked the corner of her lips. She raised her head slightly. Above her head was the vent of the air conditioner. It was so cool that she didn't want to move. Since she came here without eating lunch, she was so hungry that she wanted to eat whatever she saw.
"Please give me two Che Zai noodles, a skewer of all kinds of Kanto, and a serving of fish eggs on sale. Thank you!"
"And two bowls of intestines … two rice balls … and a serving of fish eggs on sale …"
"And a serving of lettuce salad."
"And two more sausages, thank you!"
Lunchtime had passed. Only one shop assistant was busy. She was collecting the money and making Che Zai noodles for Wen Liangliang. From time to time, she would respond to Wen Liangliang's sudden requests for more orders. She was so busy that she was about to explode!
While waiting for the microwave to ring twice, Wen Liangliang "patrolled" the freezer again. She picked up a box of instant shark's fin soup and hurriedly handed it to the shop assistant. She urged, "When will the Kanto be ready? Can you help me get a few skewers first? I can't wait. "She deliberately turned her head and threw the pot to Old Lady Zhou in order to gain sympathy.
The shop assistant was completely furious. She had tried her best to satisfy Wen Liangliang when she cut the queue several times. But Wen Liangliang still urged her. "Thank you! First, line up, pay, and then, get, Kanto! "
Wen Liangliang swallowed her saliva. She didn't want to go against her. She walked to the back of the queue.
There was a tall man in front of her. He was holding a can of lemon tea in his hand.
"New packaging?" She pointed at the can and raised her eyebrows.
The man's hand that was holding the lemon tea was cold. The water droplets condensed on his fingertips.
Wen Liangliang tiptoed and looked over his shoulder. She sighed helplessly when she saw the long line of people paying the bill. While waiting in silence, her eyes began to wander to the shelves next to her. She was getting married soon. How could she not drink some coffee to celebrate? Although no one knew she was married.
She naively thought that the person in front of her might be able to help her. "Handsome, can you help me look at the seats? I'll be back after I get the coffee. "
The man who was called "handsome" was shocked. He had no choice but to turn his head and fight with her relaxed and bright expression.
Under her surprised gaze, Zhou Bocan pointed to the transparent thermos next to her. There were various kinds of hot coffee in it.
Wen Liangliang lowered her head and quietly took out the warm coffee. Her voice was lighter than the breeze. "Long time no see. How have you been?"
Before returning to China, she had thought that if they met, she would just walk past him casually. She must not say hello. He might not want to see her. However, she was really looking for trouble just now.
Now she was waiting to be humiliated to death. Look, he didn't say a word. He didn't want to "know" her at all! However, words that had been said were like spilled water. They couldn't be taken back. This scene was like the time when they parted. She said goodbye and he hung up the phone. Later, he probably deleted her WeChat and phone number. Fortunately, she was not stupid enough to send him any messages.
"Coffee is not good."
She was stunned for a long time before she realized that these words came out of his mouth. It seemed like he was talking to himself, but she remembered that he said something similar five years ago. He asked her to go to a cafe to buy coffee for a female colleague, but not for her. Later, when they went to Beijing Road to eat, she pestered him to buy a pearl milk tea to vent her anger. He scolded her for not having common sense and not learning.
When it was their turn to pay the bill, the shop assistant who had just finished her lunch break came out to save the situation. Both of them paid at the same time. Zhou Bocan only bought a can of drink. Wen Liangliang bought more food than she could carry with her two hands. The shop assistant could only help her carry the food to the dining area.
Immediately, a surprised voice came from behind the shelves. "You don't have to buy food for me! I'm so embarrassed! "
Zhou Bocan felt that the voice was familiar. He looked back and saw Old Lady Zhou, who had long removed her scarf. Coincidentally, she turned around and their eyes met.
Old Lady Zhou jumped up from the stool and explained in a flurry, "I … … just … … when I was crossing the road, she helped me … … she helped me in … … and bought me a bottle of water."
Zhou Bocan did not suspect anything. Old Lady Zhou felt that her story was lame and started to refute it. "She is a good person. She is very grateful to me. I am also very grateful to her …" The more she said, the worse it got. She simply urged him to put down his identity card and immediately rushed him back to work.
