Girl, I'll Teach You Cultivation-Chapter 193
Jiang Xiu's face turned ice-cold when he saw Cheng Lingsu return with the household register. Woman, couldn't you have said you lost it or something?
"Give it to me."
Lin Yueling took the household register and lead Cheng Lingsu to call a cab. Jiang Xiu followed behind them, holding his mother's luggage all the while.
Jiang Xiu's still had hope in his heart. According to the marriage laws of China, he and Cheng Lingsu had yet to reach the legal age, so even if they went to the Civil Administration Office, the office wouldn't issue a marriage certificate.
Today wasn't either a holiday or some special occasion, so there weren't any people there except for those who came here to file for divorce. It wasn't worth it to line up.
Lin Yueling said, "Wait for me. I'll go make a call."
This call destroyed the final hope Jiang Xiu had. Nowadays, if only you had acquaintances, it was possible to do anything. Though Annan was small, it had connections to the capital, and even if that didn't work out, Jiang Yi knew a few leaders now, so something like this was a trifle.
It was just an advance marriage and would be considered a violation at most.
This time, Jiang Xiu understood that his mother was serious. There was no chance for him to back out at all. She rushed him and Cheng Lingsu to get their photo taken and get marriage certificate done. He was similar to a husky in a jumpsuit acting like a clown.
After spending 10 bucks more, two certificates were handed out, and the matter was done.
"One for each of you. Take care of it."
Lin Yueling beamed with happiness today. She had to overcome so many obstacles along the way but returned with a decisive victory. She was perfectly contented as she looked at the young married couple before her. It made her sigh. In those days, these brats had got married while playing house in the mud. She then remembered the scene of Cheng Lingsu pulling her inside her home and feeding her congee.
"One load is finally off my mind."
Line Yueling continued, "We shall arrange the wedding feast when you return home during winter vacation, okay?"
"Congratulations to both of you…"
Mother, I should be the one congratulating you, right?! Jiang Xiu thought.
Lin Yueling pulled Cheng Lingsu's hand. This little lass had a flushed face all along as if she were a startled bunny, appearing quite flustered. Lin Yueling couldn't help but feel love and pity for her, "Susu, now the next step. Your mission is to give birth to a baby for our Jiang family."
"Aaah?"
Cheng Lingsu's crimson face turned even redder. I can't do that alone. She couldn't help but call out shyly, "Aunt!"
Lin Yueling smiled at her, "What Aunt? Call me Mother."
"Mother!"
Cheng Lingsu called out sweetly. Though her voice was tiny, Lin Yueling could hear it.
"Ei!" This had really made Lin Yueling giddy. She grinned widely then took out a red packet from her purse, "This is wedding gift money from mother."
Jiang Xiu suspected that it had a decent amount of money in there as such was his mother's character.
"Alright. Let's go home!"
"Go home? Which home?" Jiang Xiu asked, feeling astonished. He felt anguished. The marriage is already done. Mother, you aren't planning to take me back to Jiang City, are you?
"Naturally to your wedding house."
"You've even prepared a wedding house?"
"Of course." Lin Yueling pulled Cheng Lingsu along. "Did you think I was waiting at your university the entire morning? I naturally went to buy a house during that gap to speed things up."
Deity Xiu had surrendered, thoroughly accepted defeat. He felt that if he had refused his mother in front of the National University, she could've really rushed into the lane.
It was a brand-new villa located in the Imperial Capital's Zhengyang District. After 10 years, the houses here had the highest price, and it also had a pleasant environment along with a natural river flowing along. The entire area was as intoxicating as a beautiful spring day. Moreover, this estate had opened recently, so they were decorated luxuriously. Lin Yueling had personally prepared all of it.
The interior was pretty luxurious. After asking Lin Yueling, she told them that she had spent 5 million RMB on it. In the year 2008, 5 million RMB was no small amount and was enough to purchase 20 flats in Jiangnan.
She had spent all the rent collected from Cloudlake Street over the last few months.
"Susu, you like it?"
Cheng Lingsu looked at the courtyard in front of the main hall as well as the pool at the back door. The river flowing to the side also gave the villa a wholesome luxurious feel. Her eyes shone while she nodded, "I like it!"
Jiang Xiu grumbled after seeing her appearance. Greedy woman. He came near the poolside and saw a familiar silhouette when he raised his head. He felt the place was a bit familiar when he arrived here. As it turns out, Wang Xintong's home was right opposite to the pool. Since this villa estate was newly developed, Wang Xintong had purchased a villa here, and his mother had done the same as well. And now, they had become Wang Xintong's neighbors.
Wang Xintong was also astonished when she saw Jiang Xiu and planned to call out to him, but when she saw Lin Yueling and Cheng Lingsu come out, for some reason, he hid behind the tree. Her thoughts worked at Mach speed. Did they buy that house?
"There's also a pool here, maybe we can raise fish here…"
Cheng Lingsu circled the pool once. She liked it very much.
"Mentioning fish, you must be feeling hungry, right? You can chat while mother prepares meals for you both."
Jiang Xiu sat down at the far end with a cold expression on his face. Cheng Lingsu wanted to explain it to him, but after seeing his attitude, she was forced to dispel that thought. She saw on the opposite site and replied to the messages Miao Xiaolin had sent her.
"Susu, you didn't really get a marriage certificate, right?"
Cheng Lingsu took a snap of her marriage certificate and sent it to her.
Cheng Lingsu's dorm room was abuzz.
It was too shocking.
The girls gossiped about it vehemently as getting married while in university was too exciting.
As she replied to her university student's messages, Cheng Lingsu's thoughts wandered to the time when she was still in High School. She recalled Ouyang Qian and Li Dan who were once her best friends. Everyone wished that their best friends know about it when they make a great decision. As she recalled them now, Cheng Lingsu also wanted to repay sincerely for their friendship, but they stamped on this friendship with their feet as if it were trash. She couldn't help but feel sad.
But immediately after that, she remembered that they had abandoned her when she had met with misfortune. She laughed, feeling that it was better to not have such friends. She could make a similar friendship during university.
On the evening that day, Jiang Xiu and Cheng Lingsu were locked inside the master bedroom by Lin Yueling. What were they doing, you ask? What else but the consummation of the marriage? Only when Jiang Xiu and Cheng Lingsu have a child would the Imperial Capital's Jiang family break off their thoughts.
The room wasn't small, but when a man and woman were in a locked space, the mood would inevitably turn weird. Jiang Xiu sat on the sofa near the window while gazing outside all the time.
Cheng Lingsu was a girl and liked cleanliness. Though she felt a bit uneasy, she took a bath according to her past habits and changed into night clothes. When she saw Jiang Xiu sitting on the sofa, she clenched her teeth and climbed on to the bed.
The two of them had lived under the same eaves once before, so Susu didn't find it unfamiliar. She had associated with him in Jiang City previously, but at that time, she was mistreated like a maid. Now, she had the identity of the mistress of the house. Therefore, she felt quite courageous and dared to sleep on the bed.
The lighting flashed on Cheng Lingsu's face. Her hair was still a bit wet, and her face washed clean, looking as spotless as snow, emphasizing her delicate features. She asked him, "Hey, are you not going to sleep?"
Jiang Xiu wore the same cold face as always and acted as if he didn't hear her.
"I'll… I'll buy some books for you to read tomorrow."
Jiang Xiu turned his face towards her slowly, "You think you've really become my wide? I only married you to deal with my mother. Do you still remember your time in Jiang City? Your nightmare has begun ever since you married me. I will continue to torment you until your mind breaks down. Let me give you a piece of advice. Quickly think of some means to leave as quickly as possible, that's best for you."
The smile on Cheng Lingsu's face went rigid after hearing this. She replied in a small voice, "I know!"
"Do you want to sleep on the bed? I'll give it to you…"
She crawled out of bed.
Jiang Xiu regained his sight but didn't say anything. Cheng Lingsu saw this and laid on the bed again. "I'll sleep first then. I have early classes tomorrow morning."
On the morning of the next day, Lin Yueling had already prepared breakfast by the time Cheng Lingsu woke up. She smiled at her, saying, "Did you sleep well yesterday?"
Cheng Lingsu smiled back at her, "Mhm."
Lin Yueling spoke something at her ears in a small voice, causing Cheng Lingsu to blush. She quickly ate breakfast then escaped from there. Lin Yueling followed after her as she was unwilling to give up.
Jiang Xiu came down and saw breakfast was arranged on the table yet no one was there. He didn't think much of it and picked up a steamed bun to eat then went towards the house door.
"Jiang Xiu!"
He saw Cheng Lingsu stand alone outside. Her face was quite pale.
"What happened?"
"A car arrived just now and took Mother away. Mother's expression was abnormal…" If it were a friend, Lin Yueling would've asked the person to deliver Cheng Lingsu to the university along the way as the cars here weren't blocked much.
Jiang Xiu's expression morphed, "What car was it? Do you remember the license plate number?"
His heart sunk down. It was either the Jiang family or the Lin family.
