Marriage Before Love

Chapter 3 He's Back

Meng Ning, did you find someone to make a fake certificate to fool me? Meng's mother still didn't believe it and repeatedly confirmed the authenticity of the marriage certificate.

Meng Ning pointed to the stamp and said: Mom, it’s issued by the Civil Affairs Bureau, it’s genuine.

What about the son-in-law? Why didn't you bring him here for me to see? Mother Meng looked outside the door and said, "I just asked you to go on a blind date and get along with him first. How come you got the certificate but you don't even know the other person's situation?"

You've already found out everything. He works at Shengyu Group, is 30 years old, has a good job, and looks good. Meng Ning thought about the details of getting along with Fu Tingxiu and said: He looks quite gentle, and both his parents are dead, he has no brothers or sisters, his family members are simple, and there aren't that many troubles.

It’s good that there are fewer problems between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

It took Meng's mother a long time to digest this news. She held the marriage certificate in her hand, and for a moment she didn't know whether it was right to force her daughter to get married.

How could she not understand that Meng Ning was forced by her and got married in a hurry just to please her.

She is ill, with cancer, and has kept it a secret from Meng Ning. Ever since her last relationship failed, Meng Ning has refused to interact with the opposite s*x again.

She was worried that if she died one day, Meng Ning would be alone with no one to take care of him, no one to help him when he got into trouble, and no one to care about him.

She then forced Meng Ning to go on a blind date, find a reliable man, and have a family.

Now that the matter is settled, there is no point in saying anything more.

Xiaoning, please ask your son-in-law to come to your house to meet you. Mother Meng sat down and said: Although you have obtained the marriage certificate, I still have to check it out.

OK, I'll ask him later, let's have dinner together tomorrow. Meng Ning said: Mom, I have to go to the stall, it's hot outside, you are not feeling well, just rest at home, don't go out.

After giving repeated instructions, Meng Ning packed up his things and left the stall.

Yezhou on Xingle Road to sell some handicrafts, all of which were small jewelry she made herself.

In order to set up a stall, she bought a second-hand van and set up the stall at five o'clock every day and closed it at eleven o'clock.

When business is good, I can make around 10,000 yuan a month. In Jingzhou , where every inch of land is valuable , survival is not a problem at all.

She studied jewelry design, but due to an incident a few years ago, no jewelry company was willing to hire her, so she simply started her own business.

Meng Ning set up the stall and Yezhou was already bustling. She took the time to send a message to Fu Tingxiu: My mother wants to see you, are you free to have dinner together tomorrow?

The message was sent, but fell on deaf ears.

After a while, business came and Meng Ning became busy, and he didn't take this matter to heart.

Meng Ning was lucky tonight and made more than 400 yuan in sales, closing the stall on time at 11 o'clock.

She was sitting in the van counting today's earnings when her cell phone rang.

It was Fu Tingxiu who replied: Sorry, I am on a business trip to Continent A and will be back in a few days. I will arrange the meal when I come back.

Working in a large company, business trips are commonplace. Meng Ning understood this and replied with one word: OK.

After closing her stall and going home, her life was no different from usual except for an extra marriage certificate.

So much so that, in the next few days, Meng Ning was so busy going out early and coming back late that she completely forgot about her husband.

That night, she was busy until twelve o'clock before closing her stall. It started to rain and her car broke down in front of her house.

Meng Ning got out of the car holding an umbrella to inspect it. This second-hand car was not the first time to have problems.

There are no major problems, but there are quite a few minor ones.

Meng Ning was reluctant to buy a new one. A used car would cost her half a year's income. She could only repair it and continue using it.

Meng Ning made a preliminary inspection and felt a little painful when he thought about having to send the car to the repair shop and spending several hundred dollars.

It was still more than a hundred meters away from the residential area. The rain was getting heavier and heavier. It was late at night, so Meng Ning could only park the car on the side of the road and go to the back car with an umbrella to move things.

She had to move back all the unsold jewelry. Some of it still needed processing, and some of the jewelry that customers sent to her for repair also had to be finished tonight.

The wind was too strong. Meng Ning was holding an umbrella and carrying a large box, which was very strenuous. The rain had soaked half of her body, and she looked very miserable.

Meng Ning did not notice that not far away, in a Rolls-Royce, Fu Tingxiu, who had returned from Continent A, saw the entire scene.

Meng Ning's back was thin, as if she could be blown away by a gust of wind, yet she was so determined that no matter how strong the wind and rain were, they could not break her back. Her umbrella was blown away, and she was immediately soaked all over. She protected the box and walked towards the community in front with her head down.

She is just a nobody in this city, and has to bear all the hardships on her own .

Fu Tingxiu was touched, took an umbrella, and said to the driver: "Drive back to the old house." Then, he got out of the car and strode towards Meng.
