Chapter 829: Preparations for the Wedding on Earth
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Ren Lijun was in a very good mood recently and would even hum some tunes while walking.
At this age, he had passed the stage of worrying about his destiny and didn’t harbor many ideas about the future. He wanted nothing more than happiness and health during old age, his children to have success, and finally, to have grandchildren to hug.
He didn’t have to worry about his children’s prospects.
Also, he didn’t know how to evaluate his eldest son. Initially, he was an ordinary person and no different from his friends and colleagues. He wasn’t out of the ordinary.
But, all of a sudden, ten years ago, Ren Lijun didn’t understand his eldest son anymore.
He wasn’t sure what Ren Baqian was doing or how much he had in assets. However, he knew that his eldest son owned five square kilometres of land in the famous Wuji City. Just this asset alone was enough to last a few generations.
When anyone, be they relatives or friends, mentioned his eldest son, they would be full of admiration.
As for his youngest son, who worked for his eldest son, he also didn’t have to worry.
Since he didn’t have to worry about them, he just had to keep himself happy and healthy.
Needless to say, family harmony was required for happiness and having money was a bonus.
As for his health, since he started learning the [Fifteen Sets of Initial Stage Cultivation] six or seven years ago before anyone else, plus frequently taking herbs and following the special diet introduced by his eldest son, he hadn’t even contracted the flu once over all these years. His health was even better than it had been in his younger days.
The only thing he lacked was grandchildren.
At this age, he should have had grandchildren long ago and to say that he wasn’t envious of others would be a lie.
His two sons were promising enough, but there was no sign of grandchildren for him, and he was vexed by this.
After waiting for so long, his eldest son was finally getting married!
Since the time he heard of this news, he had been smiling nonstop.
He had just come back from his son’s new house today. Although his son didn’t stay here, he had bought a house and renovated it for the big day.
“Old Ren, are you returning from the new house again?”
Before entering the corridor, he met his neighbor from upstairs. They weren’t allowed to smoke in their houses and became close because they often smoked together in the corridor.
“Yes!” Ren Lijun smiled until his eyes were almost closed.
“When’s the wedding?”
“Still one month to go!”
“It’s very soon! Tell me if you need any help!”
“Don’t forget to attend the banquet!”
They were chatting when his neighbor suddenly looked forward and asked, “No way to forget! Eh, those guys over there, is one of them your son?”
Although he only saw him twice, it was impossible to forget him after one look.
That physique, like a humanoid bear, was too oppressive!
Ren Lijun turned to look and saw four people coming from afar. Three of them were tall and looked like moving walls while the last person, although brawny, was much thinner. Wasn’t this person his son?
“Dad, you are gossiping.” Ren Baqian nodded at the two and smiled.
“You are thinner. How did you lose so much weight?” Ren Lijun was distressed. This son of his had always been thin and only managed to put on some weight over the last few years.
The neighbor from upstairs almost choked. Was this considered thin? He was 1.75 meters tall, weighed at least 100 kilograms, had bulging muscles, and his T-shirt was almost about to explode.
Are you misunderstanding the meaning of thin?
However, Ren Baqian was much thinner than before! The city wall had become a cement block.
“I’m on a diet!” Ren Baqian replied casually.
He couldn’t say that he had been drained!
There was simply no way to say it out aloud!

“Old Liu, we are going up!” Ren Baqian’s father greeted his neighbor and the three winged cavalry warriors before leading them upstairs.
“How long will you be staying this time?”
“Five days. I need to attend to some matters before coming back in 20 days’ time.”
His father knew that his son had a lot on his plate and didn’t mind.
“How about my daughter-in-law?” Ren Lijun asked.
“She’s currently too busy to get away and will come back with me then.”
When they entered the house, they saw red objects everywhere, bedding for the wedding, double happiness characters, and other things piled up in the hall. Ren Baqian’s mother and two aunties were discussing what else they still needed to buy.
Another round of greetings was exchanged.
Ren Baqian had come back this time to look at the wedding ceremony plan and to remove any unnecessary steps so as to prevent problems from arising later.
Although the empress said that she had a sense of propriety and understood the customs, he didn’t take her word for it.
This wedding ceremony was for the sake of his parents and didn’t need much preparation, so he wanted to keep it as simple as possible. The guests were some relatives and friends of his parents.
Almost all of the arrangements were done by his parents, including the choice to hire a well-known wedding planner.
Ren Baqian went to the wedding planner the next day. He sat on the sofa and crossed out the items on the list one by one, saying, “Change this three bow ceremony to a hand cupping salute!
He removed the item of lighting cigarettes for the guests and also dispensed with the tea serving ceremony.
The pledge for the couple to live harmoniously with the in-laws was removed.
The item of giving dates, peanuts, longans, and lotus seeds to the bride and then asking her whether she could give birth was deleted.
Bowing to parents and guests was change to a hand cupping salute.
The narration of their love story and the game of “Truth or Dare” were removed.
The speech by the guest representative was also removed.
Instead of the couple giving speeches, only the bridegroom would give a speech.
The item of the bride pouring wine for the relatives was also deleted.
There were too many mines, but Ren Baqian rejoiced as he cleared them.
Letting the empress guarantee that she would live harmoniously with her in-laws was a joke!
Putting a pile of dates, peanuts, longans, and lotus seeds in front of her and asking her whether she would give birth was preposterous.
Bowing 90 degrees to the in-laws and relatives wasn’t acceptable to the empress.
If the empress wanted to give face, bowing to his parents was fine, but she would flip the table if she had to bow to the others.
What other games were there? The game of “Truth or Dare?” Each person would be given a piece of paper and write down their most romantic moment, their happiest event, their most unforgettable incident, their most touching time, their favorite place, their first kiss, etc. Each of them would be temporarily separated when writing the answers and then each would be asked to guess what the other had written.
Imagine asking the empress to play such a game in public. These people must be tired of living!
However, playing this game in their own bedroom wasn’t a bad idea. He wondered what the empress would write… Even he didn’t know what to write… He would try it out when he got back as it seemed like it would be fun.
If the empress gave a speech and said, “I will bestow nobility to your family,” it would be shocking.
Asking the empress to pour wine for the relatives and lighting cigarettes for the guests was out of the question. The reaction would be unimaginable.
There were too many mines. Stepping on one could be fatal.
Ren Baqian thought about sending the wedding planner a “complaint,” but these companies were used to dealing with normal customers and he was abnormal. They couldn’t find another like him on Earth and weren’t to blame.
When he finished speaking, the boss of the company was speechless. He had a good reputation and was very experienced. With other people, he could maintain his authority because the wedding customs here were like this.
However, Ren Baqian’s physique and demeanor were so imposing that people couldn’t refuse him. Furthermore, there were three fierce looking giants behind him. In the end, the boss didn’t say anything!
“Do it this way! Settle the rest of the matters and don’t come up with newfangled ideas. Just follow the instructions that I have given you.” Ren Baqian threw the piece of paper on the tea table and heaved a sigh of relief.
There should be no problem now.
All that was left was to invite a few relatives from the bride’s family.
It would be a bit out of line if the empress was the only one present.
