Tang Zhengde and his wife Zhang Hualian thought about it and realized it was indeed the case. Elder Mrs. Zhang always doted on her granddaughter; if she knew her granddaughter was getting married and she wasn't invited, wouldn't she be so upset that she couldn't eat? Although Granny Tang verbally disdained Tang Yue, when Xiao Yue was in trouble, she still took out money to help; even if Granny Tang wasn't her biological grandmother, she was like one. If they didn't invite her, wouldn't Granny Tang feel uncomfortable? But if they invited both elderly grandmothers, then other family members should also be invited. One thing leading to another, a rough count would imply at least a dozen or so people. "You all give me a number, and I will arrange for them to take a ride to the city's train station and go directly to Jing City Station to pick them up," Meng Jin explained, as he was afraid they might feel embarrassed to ask: "This joyous occasion is a good reason for everyone to gather together. Not to mention Xiao Yue's relatives, even Si Yu's two uncles and their whole families need to come over." "Yes, mother-in-law, that's the right idea. You talk to them and see who is available to come over," Mo Xiaolin added. Getting his only son married, although not to throw a grand banquet, the marriage registration was still very important. Friends might not need to attend, but immediate family members still should. Mo Xiaolin was certain that if Mo Siyu got married and didn't invite his two uncles, their spit would be enough to drown her. As a child, Mo Siyu relied on the support of his two uncles to grow up, often feeling closer than with his own father. Meng Jin was very grateful for the things the two elder uncles had done and treated them with great respect for this matter. The Tang and Meng families discussed as they ate, creating a very intimate atmosphere. Tang Zhengde and Meng Jin, the two fathers-in-law, drank one glass after another. Tang Zhengde, who usually drank very little, was also happy today and drank merrily with Meng Jin. Being a little younger than Meng Jin, after several rounds of drinks, Tang Zhengde was already calling him 'Brother Meng' with every other word, while Meng Jin called him 'Younger Brother Tang.' "Brother Meng, our family's Xiao Yue is now entrusted to Si Yu," Tang Zhengde belched, his face flushed with alcohol, and even his eyes were somewhat drunken as he said: "If your Meng family bullies Xiao Yue, I don't care if Brother Meng is Mr. Meng or not, I'll fight with my life to protect Xiao Yue." "That's right. Xiao Yue marrying into our Meng family is now my Meng Jin's daughter-in-law. If Si Yu bullies her, I'll be the first to not let him off." Meng Jin laughed 'hehe': "Younger Brother Tang, I haven't drunk so much in a long time. I'm having a great time today." Tang Zhengde and Meng Jin, as if competing with the alcohol, continued to drink glass after glass, while Tang Mingli sat beside them, also drinking quite a bit. Mo Xiaolin, Zhang Hualian, and Wei Jiajia were conversing together. "Xiao Yue, I won't bully you in the future," Mo Siyu leaned in and whispered in her ear. His breath, warmed by a bit of alcohol and mixed with the smell of liquor, was not unpleasant but rather intoxicating. Even though Tang Yue didn't drink, the scent of his breath made her heart jump uncontrollably. Tang Yue turned to look at him and gritted her teeth, "If you dare to bully me, I'll go back to my mother's house." "No way," Mo Siyu held her hand. Tang Yue puffed up her cheeks and complained, "You're too domineering." "No one can bully you, not even me," Mo Siyu, facing her huffy expression, couldn't help but tease her: "Xiao Yue, there's a kind of bullying that doesn't count as bullying." A second ago, Tang Yue was touched by Mo Siyu's words, but the next second, she couldn't help… wanting to hit someone! This guy has no shame, there are so many people around. Tang Yue quickly scanned the crowd, relieved that no one noticed her, she sighed in relief. "Is Xiao Yue thinking something dirty?" whispered Mo Siyu in her ear. "I did not think anything of that sort." Tang Yue quickly replied, seeing Zhang Hualian looking her way, she smiled at Zhang Hualian and then glared at Mo Siyu: "Who says bullying isn't really bullying? Come on, tell me?" "It's exactly what you're thinking." Mo Siyu, looking at her reddening earlobes, quickly got up. It would be terrible if he actually angered her. Mo Siyu went to the kitchen to get some fruit and deliberately picked out a bowl of grapes that Tang Yue liked and placed it in front of her, saying, "Xiao Yue, have some grapes, they are fresh." Tang Yue ate the grapes, sour and sweet, very fresh, and her favorite flavor. She ate the grapes one by one, refusing to look at Mo Siyu, thinking to herself how naughty he was. It was actually his dirty mind, but he blamed her. Tang Yue grumbled inwardly. When they went back home, the return gifts from Mo Xiaolin were much more than what they brought, and also, the jewelry box Mo Siyu gave her was taken away along with the bankbook, at Meng Jin's urging. "Xiao Yue, what's this?" Zhang Hualian was looking at the box, which appeared quite exquisite, making Zhang Hualian somewhat curious. "We'll talk about it when we get home." Thinking of the value of the jewelry box, Tang Yue waited until they got home before taking it out. Zhang Hualian was astonished, in her whole life, she had never seen such beautiful jewelry. Picking up one bracelet, she asked, "Are these stones set in it gemstones?" "Tang Zhengde, did the Meng Family give these things to you?" Tang Zhengde eyed the splendid array of jewelry, knowing in his heart that definitely, the Mo Family did not have such heritage, but as for the Meng Family, it was possible. "Yes." Tang Yue explained, "It was part of the dowry of the deceased Granny Meng, meant to be left for me." "Then you must keep it safe, and pass it on to your children later," Tang Zhengde immediately added, insisting Tang Yue take care of it. Zhang Hualian also came back to her senses, saying, "Listen to your dad, take good care of this, understand?" "The Meng Family really values Xiao Yue, giving her so much stuff even before marriage," murmured Zhang Hualian. Originally, she thought that the ten thousand yuan and the house saved up by her and Tang Zhengde would be enough to make Tang Yue worthy of Mo Siyu. But now, seeing this jewelry, Zhang Hualian understood that they could never catch up with the value of that box.

Whether he is Mo Siyu or Meng Siyu, to me, he's just my future husband." "Right." Tang Zhengde earnestly added, "Xiao Yue, although our family comes from a rural background, you are also very outstanding. If you ever feel wronged in the future, just tell dad, and even if it costs me my life, I will protect you."
