Chapter 207: Chapter 0207: Respectful Toast to Recognize Relatives 3_1

Before long, the bridal suite was empty except for several women and a handful of young boys and girls who had followed the adults to participate in the fun and joyous occasion. The adults talked freely in their presence, as the children were too young to understand their conversation.

Wang Jiao, who had never been one for modesty, tore the corners of the joyous wedding quilt to pull out several red dates and dyed red peanuts and walnuts.

The four items symbolizing a wish for the couple to have children soon - red dates, peanuts, longans, and lotus seeds - were in short supply. Consequently, they could only sew some peanuts and dates inside the wedding quilt to make do.

Everyone in the room burst into laughter upon seeing Wang Jiao’s actions.

"Fengqin, look at your Jiaojiao, we all forgot about the peanuts and dates in the quilt but she didn’t."

"It’s all due to Lu Jiang’s wife being so beautiful. We were so stunned by her beauty that we neglected the red dates and peanuts in the quilt!"

"Exactly, exactly!"

On hearing the light-hearted teasing, Feng Qingxue pursed her lips and smiled faintly, which led the crowd to praise her even more. A beautiful girl always brings pleasure to the beholder’s eyes.

Wang Jiao seemed to only be interested in Feng Qingxue’s attire, "When I get married tomorrow, I want to wear something like this, dressed like this!"

As soon as the crowd heard this, they couldn’t help but remark, "Oh, Jiaojiao is already thinking about getting married?"

"Time does fly; Jiaojiao is already a twenty-year-old maid!"

Miao Fengqin, powerless over her daughter’s outspokenness, jokingly chided her for her lack of propriety and said, "Don’t just think about the good stuff. Getting the materials for your cousin’s clothes is all thanks to her husband’s friends. We don’t know if we’ll have enough cloth ration coupons for your wedding. Even if we did, it’s not guaranteed that the stores will have this bright red cloth!"

"Mom, why don’t you start preparing for me now?" Wang Jiao replied with a pout, feeling aggrieved. She made a mental note to ask Zhang Yuejin to figure out how to get two pieces of red cloth for her wedding dress.

Who wouldn’t want to look dazzling on their once-in-a-lifetime wedding day?

Even if she couldn’t be as good-looking as her cousin, she would definitely outshine everyone else tenfold. Zhang Yuejin would undoubtedly be proud!

Before Miao Fengqin could reprimand her for her outlandish thoughts, Feng Qingxue quickly said, "Cousin, by the time of your wedding, it will be cold, and I will make a dress that’s even more beautiful than a blouse according to your size!"

"Snow, don’t indulge her!" Miao Fengqin said.

"My Aunt," Feng Qingxue replied with a gentle smile, "How is this indulging my cousin? It is perfectly normal to want to look beautiful for one’s wedding. Besides, I will work within my means and not overdo it."

Despite Wang Jiao’s many faults, Feng Qingxue still preferred her in her current state compared to her past self.

Perhaps it was because she herself carried too much on her shoulders, which made her envious of Wang Jiao’s carefree and worry-free disposition.

A child spoiled by their parents always seems happier than others.

They could act frivolously and wilfully.

Although Miao Fengqin always scolded Wang Jiao for this or that, her eyes were filled with affection, showing that even though Wang Jiao’s past runaway resulted in huge losses for the family, it did not affect her parents’ love for her.

Upon hearing Feng Qingxue’s words, Wang Jiao was overjoyed, "Cousin, remember your promise, you can’t go back on your word!"

Previously, she would call her by her name, but now she called her "cousin" as it brought her benefits. This was absolutely typical of Wang Jiao!

The sister-in-laws in the crowd, hearing this, rolled their eyes in unison, shrugged, and finally burst into laughter. After all, they figured that the marriage of their little sister-in-law would be cared for by their father and mother-in-law, and would not affect their own family life.
