On March 12, National Treeplanting Day and Jungkook's birthday, they got married.
Jungkook had decided on the wedding day. When he previously discussed things with Lisa, he'd said, "We can't set it on Valentine's Day, nor can we set it on your birthday."
Lisa had found it odd. "Why?"
"Because I need to give you a gift on our wedding anniversary. If it's on the same day as a holiday, I can only give you one gift for both holidays. You'd lose out."
Lisa pondered it over deeply before nodding her head. "Then we can't set it on White Day either, or your birthday."
"No, you can only choose between these two days," Jungkook said. "That way, you'll give one gift less to me and I'll help you save money. See how well I can run a household."
Lisa rubbed his head in praise while Jungkook was delighted.
On the day of the wedding, there was a little accident. According to tradition, Mr. Jungkook[1] should first pick up Miss Lisa[2] from her house, where he'd be ridiculed and jeered at by her friends before piggybacking his bride down the stairs and onto the marriage car.
As Jungkook finished being viciously oppressed by her friends until they let him through, he prepared to pick up his bride. However, the rusty lock that had hardly been oiled since Lisa's youth decided to forsake its owner.
They couldn't open the door.
No matter how the person inside pushed and shoved, or the people outside pounded, poked, or pulled, the iron grille door stood stubbornly between the groom and bride like the Queen Mother of the West separating two lovers on the shores of life and death.
The crowd had worked themselves up into a sweat as they kicked up a row and called for the lock company. Lisa held her forehead inside the door and sighed, while Jungkook stubbornly turned on the key outside. "Release my wife, let her go, ah, let her go! Give my wife back to me! Give her back, you bastard!"
Only in stories would the male lead get a golden finger from the author. Reality didn't work like that.
So no matter how much the male lead resented and struggled, all he could do was wait for the lock company's employee to let his wife out.
Naturally, the wedding ceremony was delayed by an hour before proceeding as planned.
Everyone who's gotten married in China knows that this was a laborious event. After busying themselves for a day before returning home, the new groom and bride took a shower, lay on the bed, and went into their respective dream worlds.
On the morning of the second day, Lisa woke up before Jungkook. She climbed off the bed and cooked a pot of porridge, cleaned up around the new house, and set the table before lifting up Jungkook's covers to kick him off the bed and wash up.
When they were eating breakfast together, Lisa saw that Jungkook's hand was a little shaky. She took it for a look and found out that this idiot had used too much strength yesterday turning the key. He'd actually rubbed a layer of his skin raw. With a sigh, she helped him stick on a band-aid before stroking his head again.
"I used up all the band-aids in the house on the first day of our marriage. Your task when you come home tonight is to buy a pack of band-aids as our reserve, understand?"
Jungkook docilely nodded his head and went to work.

After getting married, Lisa became Lisa[3]. The well-behaved and kindhearted Jungkook never dared to bring Lisa any trouble when he went home. However, today's rainy day broke that streak.
