"Mom, I’m getting married too; I want to buy her that dress."
"I’ll ask around for you tomorrow, see where it’s sold."
Indeed, it looks good—wearing it, and with makeup, it looks very nice.
The trend of wedding dresses started in the Capital City earlier.
Anyway, today’s wedding of Su Jinyan and Fang Meiyun wrapped up perfectly.
Three days later, they went to visit the bride’s family.
Madam Su prepared quite a few things for this visit.
Actually, Madam Su didn’t expect the bride’s family to prepare so much dowry.
Appliances, furniture, quilts, clothes, shoes, quite a lot of stuff.
The total cost of these is much more than what she gave as a bride price.
Moreover, they offered the three turns and a sound, but the bride’s family didn’t accept; they returned it all.
The newlyweds rushed back home, thinking they’d only meet the bride’s brother’s family, but more guests arrived.
"Xiao Yun, how’s it going?" Yun Xiaoxiao asked Fang Meiyun upon seeing her, inquiring about her married life.
Are things harmonious?
How’s the relationship with your mother-in-law?
Though, nowadays as entrepreneurs, they’re quite wealthy.
But pared to those with power, Xiao Yun’s marriage still counts as marrying up.
"Aunt, Uncle."
Why aren’t you at home studying?
"They took leave from the teacher," Du Ruo couldn’t manage the two younger ones.
It’s easy to take leave from kindergarten.
Su Jinyan was pulled away by a few male friends for a chat.
As for Fang Meiyun, some people started chattering and asking questions.
"Xiao Yun, if you’re wronged at your in-laws’, just e back and let us know," Little Aunt Zhao, having experienced it, knew Xiao Yun’s nice nature and worried she’d be wronged at her in-laws’ but wouldn’t speak up.
"Yes."
Because there were many people, Du Ruo and Fang Chaoyang didn’t plan to have dinner at home and had already reserved two tables at a nearby restaurant.
"Aunt, my mom treats me quite well."
The parents-in-law indeed treated her quite well. These days, with their jobs, they let Brother Su acpany her to get familiar with things at home.
All those sitting here have gone through similar experiences.
Live your little life well.
"Going home for New Year."
Zhang Lanhua’s family didn’t plan on going back every year, but this year it’s a must because her mother-in-law is having a major birthday celebration.
This year, another person, Er Dan, is going home.
The Fang Family, being a large family, didn’t plan on going back; after all, on the previous visit there was quite a motion, and since then Fang Chaoyang hasn’t taken the whole family back.
As for Zhao Xinxin, she also decided not to return to her hometown. Little Uncle Zhao and Little Aunt Zhao have almost settled in the Capital City over the past few years, one helping with the kids and the other working as security at a factory.
"Brother Er Dan, when you go back, you’ll definitely surprise them."
"Brother Er Dan, you can stay at my place; our old home has been rebuilt, and currently my grandparents live there."
These two elders don’t know when they decided to retire to the Capital City for their golden years.
Over the past few years, Zhao Family Village has undergone drastic changes.
Almost every household has built brick houses.
Children of school age are all attending school.
If a family’s child doesn’t attend school, people start gossiping, saying things like you’re biased towards boys over girls or you’re hoarding munity funds, preventing children from education, and so forth.
No family dares to keep children at home, denying them education.
Even stepmothers from marriages don’t dare hinder their stepchildren’s education.
The medicinal herbs from Zhao Family Village have seen an increase in variety; they’ve even started planting some fruits, raising rabbits, and the food factory’s development has grown significantly with many villagers working there.
