990 Household Registration Booklet
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation | Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
After the wedding, Zhuang Liu could not wait to leave with Tan Rou because Tan Rou had just promised him that if he could get the household register from Tan Ronâs parents, Tan Rou would go and register her marriage with him.
Zhuang Liu couldnât wait any longer. He was going to get his marriage certificate with Tan Rou today. While the lucky buff of holding flowers was still there, he had to get his marriage certificate as soon as possible.
The Civil Affairs Bureau closed at 5:30 pm. It was 1:30 pm now, so they still had four hours to get their marriage certificate.
They had to wear a white shirt for the marriage certificate, but Tan Rou and Zhuang Liu were wearing warm colors for the wedding today. If they wanted to take the photo, they had to go back and change into a white shirt.
Zhuang Liu did not have the time to go back and change his clothes. He did not know how long it would take to go back and forth. He could not afford to wait. So, he handed the errand to Xiao Mo and asked him to bring two sets of white shirts from his residence. Then, he drove Tan Rou to the Tao family manor to look for Tan Ronâs parents.
On the way, Zhuang Liu was very excited. He was eager to marry Tan Rou, but when he reached the entrance of the Tao familyâs manor, he did not dare to enter.
No matter how powerful a son-in-law was, he would be afraid of his father- in-law and mother-in-law. Zhuang Liu was no exception. After all, they had not discussed the matter of registering their marriage with Tan Ronâs parents.
If Zhuang Liu was Tan Ronâs parents, he would definitely not be willing to marry Tan Rou off. After getting the marriage certificate, there was no chance for regrets. Zhuang Liu would not regret it, but he did not know if Tan Rou would regret it. After all, Tan Rou was only 22 years old.
Tan Rou got out of the passenger seat and saw Zhuang Liu standing at the door. She asked curiously, âDidnât you want to ask my parents for the household register? Why are you still standing here? We donât have much time left. If youâre still in a daze here, we can only wait until tomorrow to get our marriage certificate.â
âNo!â Zhuang Liu immediately rejected it. âYouâve already promised me to register our marriage today. You canât regret it.â
Tan Rou said to Zhuang Liu as she walked into the manor, âItâs not that I want to regret it now. Itâs that you donât dare to enter my house. Itâs said that even an ugly daughter-in-law has to meet her parents-in-law. Why donât you, a handsome son-in-law, dare to meet your mother-in-law?â
Zhuang Liu strode in. âThatâs true. Why should I be afraid? Your parents and grandparents are happy with me. When I proposed last time, they immediately agreed when I invited them to join us.â
Tan Rou said, âOkay, letâs go in quickly. The Civil Affairs Bureau will close soon.â
Zhuang Liu didnât know if the Tao family had received the news in advance, or if their arrival was too coincidental. Everyone from the Tao family was actually here.
He greeted them one by one before telling them his purpose for coming. After he finished speaking, no one in the Tao family spoke; even Tao Qi did not speak to him. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Zhuang Liu was very flustered. The Tao family wouldnât regret marrying their daughter to him, right? That wouldnât do. He couldnât live without Tan Rou.
âGrandpa, Grandma, Dad, Mom, I would like to borrow the household register.â Zhuang Liu braced himself and said, âDonât worry, weâll return it after weâre done.â
âDo you know the meaning of it?â Mr. Tao asked seriously.
âI know,â Zhuang Liu said. âThe household register is very important to you, so I wonât break it.â
âNot entirely.â Father Tao said, âThe household register represents the family. The whole family is in the same book. It represents perfection but if you take our Xiao Rou away, our family will be incomplete.â
Zhuang Liu was in a difficult position. He naturally knew this, but he couldnât do without Tan Rou.
Tan Rou sighed. âDad, Mom, didnât I tell you not to make things difficult for Ah Liu? Even though weâre married, itâs not like we will never come back. Iâm still your daughter. You donât have to be sad. Big Brother has already gone to meet Tiantianâs parents with Tiantian. I believe that not long later, you will have another daughter.â
âYou little girl, why are you siding with outsiders?â Mrs. Tao couldnât help but laugh. She slapped Mr. Tao and said, âYou too. I told you to ask Zhuang Liu a few simple questions. Why are you so serious? If my daughter and son-in-law are scared by you, I wonât let you off.â
Mr. Tao felt really wronged. He didnât know what to say, so he searched for a few questions online. In the end, he ended up scaring his daughter and son-in- law. âItâs my fault. Iâll reflect on it. You can take the household register.â
