The two of them put away the contract in a tacit understanding and walked out side by side.
…
downstairs.
Mr. Si held the marriage certificates of the two of them in his hand, and his mouth never closed.
He didn't look away from the marriage certificate until Si Mobai and Su Qian sat across from him.
"Grandpa asked Butler Zhou to call you down because he wanted to discuss the wedding with you."
The old man looked at Su Qian and asked softly: "Qianqian, what kind of wedding do you like? Is it Chinese style, Western style, or some other style?"
With a smile on her face, Su Qian replied: "Grandpa, we have received the certificate, which means we are officially husband and wife. As for the wedding, it doesn't matter whether we do it or not."
She turned her face to look at Si Mobai and smiled stiffly: "Mr. Si, are you right?"
Before Si Mobai could speak, the old man asked a question.
"Qianqian, you and Mo Bai are both married, why do you still call her Mr. Si?"
Su Qian was a habitual name, but when the old man asked her this question, she suddenly felt a little unnatural.
Si Mobai was calm.
"Grandpa doesn't know. This is a playful term among us young people."
Su Qian couldn't help but laugh. She glanced at him and then looked away, acquiescing to this answer.
Although the old man felt puzzled, he didn't delve into it further.
"I don't know much about the hobbies of you young people, grandpa, but you are all married, so it seems too unfamiliar to call you that."
Su Qian followed the old man's words and replied: "Grandpa, I'll pay attention to it in the future."
My grandson's wife is so well-behaved, and the old man likes her from the bottom of his heart.
"Qianqian, you haven't told grandpa yet, what kind of wedding do you like?"
Seeing that she couldn't push it away, Su Qian gently tugged on Si Mobai's sleeve.
Si Mobai replied on her behalf: "Grandpa, Qianqian and I don't like extravagance. As for the wedding, we want to save this step. If grandpa wants to be lively, we can just have a reunion dinner at our own home."
The wrinkles on the old man's brow were a few deep.
"Isn't it too unfair to just have a reunion dinner?"
"Grandpa, I'm not aggrieved. I don't really like the excitement either."
The two children had the same opinion, and the old man couldn't say anything else.
"Okay, grandpa will respect your opinions and have a reunion dinner at home tomorrow. Qianqian, please remember to call your parents over. Our two families will take this opportunity to formally meet."
Su Qian hesitated.
If Su Huaide knew that she and Si Mobai were married, he would definitely publicize it and use the name of the Si family to make huge profits.
Si Mobai noticed her troubled expression and interrupted: "I know, Grandpa."
After the old man said this, he took out a finely crafted brocade box from behind and handed it to Su Qian.
Su Qian just looked at the carved patterns on the brocade box and knew that the contents in the box were valuable, so she did not reach out to pick it up.
"Grandpa, what is this?"
The old man opened the brocade box and introduced: "This is the heirloom jade bracelet of our Si family. It has always been kept by the mistress of the Si family. My wife told me many times before she passed away that I must give this jade bracelet to Mo."
In the hands of Bai’s future wife.”
Su Qian knew something about jade, and she could tell at a glance that the jade bracelet in this brocade box was pure imperial green and was of immeasurable value.
She couldn't accept it being so valuable.
"Grandpa, the mistress of the Si family should be Mrs. Si. She should keep such valuable things."
When Jiang Wanrong was mentioned, the expression on the old man's face was somewhat intriguing.
He didn't explain much, just took out the jade bracelet from the box and put it in Si Mobai's hand.
"Mo Bai, put it on Qianqian."
Si Mobai did not refuse, holding the jade bracelet in one hand and raising Su Qian's hand with the other.
Su Qian retracted her hand and looked at him with a frown.
Is this guy crazy?
They were just pretending to be married. They gave her such a valuable thing, weren't they afraid that she would take it away and not return it?
Si Mobai realized her actions, but did not stop and directly put the jade bracelet on her hand.
After finishing it, he even said: "It's very suitable."
The old man nodded in agreement.
"It really fits and looks just as good as when my wife wore it back then."
Looking at the jade bracelet on Su Qian's hand, the old man thought of his deceased wife, and his smile suddenly felt sad.
Su Qian noticed his expression and felt that the jade bracelet on her hand was extremely heavy.
She wanted to take off the jade bracelet, but Si Mobai grabbed her wrist and stopped her.
He whispered: "This is grandpa's wish. If you refuse, grandpa will be sad."
She put down her hand and looked at Mr. Si.
"Thank you, grandpa."
The old man looked at the two of them, as if he saw himself and his wife back then, and smiled extremely lovingly.
"No thanks, grandpa just hopes that you and Mo Bai can love each other and be together for a hundred years."
When he said this, tears flashed in the old man's eyes, and he whispered: "Mo Bai finally got married. My wife, you should feel at ease underground."
Zhou Xin comforted him: "Old Master, why are you still crying on this happy day?"
The old man wiped the tears from his eyes and said, "I'm so happy, Butler Zhou. I've been looking forward to this day for many years."
Si Mobai called: "Grandpa..."
The old man waved his hand.
"Don't comfort me. Grandpa is fine. Grandpa is just too happy. Your child has been withdrawn since childhood. Now, you can finally have someone to accompany you."
Su Qian lowered her eyes.
It turned out that the old man just wanted to find someone to accompany Si Mobai.
Seeing him so excited, Su Qian suddenly felt guilty. If the old man found out that she and Si Mobai were only fake in the future, would he be able to accept it?
…
Half an hour later.
The old man left Qingyouyuan.
Su Qian took off the jade bracelet and put it back into the brocade box, then gave it back to Si Mobai.
Si Mobai glanced at the brocade box and had no intention of taking it.
"Grandpa gave this to you, I have no right to take it back."
"But this is what the old man left to his future grandson-in-law."
Si Mobai's eyes were deep and he asked, "Aren't you?"
Su Qian raised her eyelids and looked at him slightly surprised.
Aren't they in a fake marriage?
Si Mobai realized that there was something wrong with his words and added another sentence: "You are now, so it belongs to you."
Listening to his cold tone, Su Qian stopped arguing with him on this topic.
"Okay, I will keep this jade bracelet with me temporarily, and I will return it to you on the day of our divorce."
Si Mobai took the coffee and put it to his mouth without answering.
Seeing that it was getting late, Su Qian said, "Do you want to rest now?"
He stood up directly.
"No, there is a drinking party tonight."
After saying that, he picked up his coat and walked out.
Su Qian looked at his back and reminded: "Mr. Si, your physical condition is not suitable for staying up late drinking anymore."
He paused, looked back at her, and said with a half-smile, "Are you concerned about me?"
