Chapter 1720: Chapter 1656: Group Favorite Comparison Story 86
Si Ya is about to discuss marriage, and for the Xiao Family and Pei Family, this is a major event.
The Xiao Family’s younger generation members like Si Nuo and Size are still unmarried.
It’s the same for the Pei Family, the eldest, Chen Zhiwen, keeps saying there’s no rush, so Si Ya is the first among her generation to discuss marriage.
As a result, both families are focused on helping with the preparations.
Over the years, Xiao Feng and Zhang Xiaoyu have moved to the Provincial City for development.
When Xiao Yuan called Xiao Feng, Xiao Feng immediately told Zhang Xiaoyu to clean and tidy up Xiao Yuan’s house.
He himself drove to book the hotel, reserving rooms and booking a private room for dinner with the Ren Family, and deciding on the menu.
On hearing from Liu Dalian that Si Ya is getting married, Pei Yu started imagining how to prepare the wedding, who the host should be, and which celebrity to invite for performances.
After Pei Yu and Wang Ming got married, they focused less on earning money from touring performances.
After having children, they started a film company named Yu Ming, combining their names. Yu Ming is now quite successful, having launched most of the current popular first and second-tier stars.
As the boss, Pei Yu has many popular stars working for her, and for her dear niece’s wedding, she’s planning which stars should attend.
An Xian and Anjing are discussing how to prepare the dowry.
Besides the dowry, An Yi is considering teaching Si Ya the husband-taming technique.
Amidst all this hustle, that evening, Ren Lu flew to the Provincial City.
Si Ya drove to the airport to pick him up and took him directly to the booked hotel.
Once Ren Lu was settled, they had a meal nearby, chatting and laughing without talking about dowry or gifts.
After dinner, Si Ya left the car with Ren Lu so he could pick up the Ren couple.
She took a taxi home.
The Ren couple arrived around midnight.
Ren Lu picked them up at the airport, and the first thing Mr. Ren said upon getting in the car was, "Son, I’ve sent a truckload of seafood, it’ll arrive tomorrow, plenty for your occasion."
This time, Ren Lu paid attention: "Dad, what did you manage to get?"
Mrs. Ren smiled: "You can count on your dad for your events. Besides Si Ya’s favorite lobsters, we also packed some king crabs, a few boxes of sea cucumber and abalone, oysters, geoduck, salmon, and oh, a tuna."
Ren Lu pondered, noting that his dad put real effort into bringing quality items.
"Alright, that should do it. Once it arrives, give it to Uncle Xiao, let him share it with the relatives. It shows our gratitude."
Ren Dad felt proud to be appreciated by his son, happily rubbing his hands: "By the way, didn’t you say Si Ya’s family also grows vegetables? Have Si Ya prepare a bit more. We can take a truck of vegetables back when we leave, our relatives like them."
"Sure."
Ren Lu smiled and agreed.
He thought he couldn’t just take Si Ya’s family’s vegetables without compensating them. Si Ya’s family isn’t wealthy, getting a truck of vegetables might hit them hard, which might lead Si Ya’s dad to disapprove of him.
Si Ya and Ren Lu are quite in tune.
During breakfast, Si Ya told Anning, "Mom, call back home, have our slaughterhouse deliver a few good pigs, prepare some marinated foods, oh, and bring some vegetables, since we have a transport team. Prepare a bit more, let Ren Lu’s parents take them back."
Xiao Yuan listened with a tinge of jealousy: "You think of that boy for everything, even more than your own dad."
Anning chuckled and served him some vegetables: "This little coat is drafty, let’s throw it away."
Si Ya didn’t care about her parents’ teasing, she continued planning what her family could send with the Ren Family.
"Dad, haven’t you hidden lots of alcohol? Oh, Uncle Huang gave you lots of red wine years back, pick some out, Ren Lu’s dad loves drinking."
Si Qi noticed his dad’s darkened face and quickly covered Si Ya’s mouth: "Dad, dad, don’t be mad, I’ll take away this little coat."
Ren Lu woke up early; he didn’t sleep much yesterday, but felt very energetic in the morning.
Thinking about finally being able to marry Si Ya made him overwhelmingly happy.
Back in college, he liked Si Ya, but she never seemed interested, fearing he’d scare her away if he confessed. So, he never dared, preparing to be just lifelong friends with her. Unexpectedly, she suddenly decided to be with him, making him feel like he’s dreaming.
The more he thought about it, the happier and more excited he got, so he posted on social media, flaunting that he finally got the campus beauty.
Shortly after posting, a classmate messaged him, sobbing upon knowing Ren Lu succeeded with Si Ya, feeling life was unfair.
The classmate mentioned: "If Si Ya liked beef, then you’d be out of the picture, she’d be mine."
This classmate’s family has several ranches on the prairie, with countless cows. Ironically, he’s a fan of vegetables, skipping meat in college, sticking to cabbage and carrots, leading everyone to think he grew up poor, making Si Ya often quietly offer him marinated foods. Later, they learned he was tired of meat and craving vegetables.
Si Ya’s family grew vegetables with great taste, upon discovering this, she regularly gifted dry foods and vegetables.
Ren Lu didn’t give it much thought.
Only today did he realize the classmate quietly fancied Si Ya.
Finding it a bit amusing, he replied to the classmate: "So do you like Si Ya, or her family’s vegetables?"
The classmate quickly responded: "I love both! Si Ya is my dish, vegetables are my life!"
Ren Lu could only respond with a gif: "Sorry, Si Ya will be my wife."
Of course, Ren Lu’s social media post received congratulatory likes from some classmates, while others made sarcastic comments.
Some classmates started a small group chat: "What’s Ren Lu showing off for, a fisher marrying a pig farmer, what’s there to be excited about?"
"It’s a good match."
"Don’t say that, pork is expensive now, maybe Si Ya’s family is quite wealthy."
"Then why don’t you marry a pig farmer?"
"Even if pork’s expensive, a pig’s worth a few bucks, how many pigs can Si Ya’s family raise?"
"You can imagine their future, either Ren Lu follows Si Ya to the countryside to raise pigs, or Si Ya joins Ren Lu on a small boat fishing at sea."
"Are you guys going to their wedding?"
"Why not? I want to see what pigs look like, I’ve never seen a live pig."
