The moment she stepped onto the carpet, Shen Yao clearly felt Jiang Qingqing's nervousness.
Shen Yao gently reached out and squeezed her hand, "Second Sister-in-law, don't worry. You and Second Brother will be happy for a lifetime!"
With Shen Yao's encouraging words, Jiang Qingqing felt as if she had received a reassurance, nodding fiercely.
That's right, she and A Jin would be happy for a lifetime, and this was the wedding she had longed for, wasn't it?
As if on cue, music filled the wedding venue. Father Jiang and Mother Jiang also walked to Jiang Qingqing's side.
Shen Yao knew that at this moment, she was no longer needed...
Father Jiang and Mother Jiang flanked Jiang Qingqing, protecting her in the middle, and then led her onto the stage.
When Father Jiang and Mother Jiang handed their daughter's hand to Shen Huaijin, even the tough Father Jiang couldn't help but shed tears.
"You rascal, if you dare to treat Qingqing badly, I'll break your legs!"
Father Jiang's words immediately caused the guests to erupt in laughter.
"Haha, Old Jiang looks so fierce, who would have thought he'd see this day!"
"Did you guys record it? I'm telling you, I've already started recording. Such a memorable moment, we have to save it!"
"You're amazing! Hurry, hurry, share it with me too. If he dares to act tough in front of us again, I'll shove this video in his face!"
"Don't go too far, you know you have daughters too! Oh, right, share that video with me too."
"He used to act tough in front of us, saying he'd break his daughter's legs if she dared to get married. Now look at him, obediently marrying her off!"
...
The wedding continued. After the couple exchanged their vows, the ring bearer, a little dumpling dressed in a miniature suit, toddled onto the stage.
The little dumpling, unfazed by the crowd, even spoke to his second uncle while handing over the rings.
"Second Uncle, you must listen to Second Aunt from now on, or you'll definitely end up kneeling on a washboard like Dad!"
After speaking, he toddled back down to find his mother.
Shen Huaijin, who was used as an example by his son, was stunned.
This little brat who pits his father!
Clearly, the little dumpling's words had pushed the atmosphere to its peak, and everyone was laughing uncontrollably.
As everyone knows, children don't lie, so how could a child have any ill intentions? He was just worried about you kneeling on a washboard.
Shen Huaijin was amused and exasperated by the little fellow, but he still smiled and put the ring on Jiang Qingqing.
After the wedding ceremony ended, it was time for the banquet.
Jiang Qingqing changed into a red dress for toasting, and then, with Shen Huaijin, they went from table to table to toast.
Shen Yao, on the other hand, was enthusiastically enjoying the feast.
After the banquet, the Shen family hurriedly rushed to catch their flight.
With the experience from the first time, this attempt went much smoother, and the wedding was held very, very successfully.
It would have been even better if the little dumpling hadn't said, "Second Uncle, why are you getting married again?" during the ring presentation!
The bridal chamber was still the Shen family's courtyard, specifically the second brother's house.
Although they had already bought a house in the county town, Jiang Qingqing preferred this small building of the Shen family to the county town.
Having lived together for some time, she found that living with the family, with all the hustle and bustle, was incredibly joyful!
Moreover, ever since she had started cultivating qi, she had noticed a difference. Cultivating in the Shen family was much faster than anywhere else!
The fifteenth day of the first lunar month. After this day, the Chinese New Year was considered over, and everyone had to start working hard for the new year.
On this day, after unanimous agreement, everyone decided to celebrate the Lantern Festival in the town.
On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, their county town would hold a lantern festival, which was even more lively than the New Year.
The lantern exhibition was held in the central plaza of the county town. Some of the lanterns displayed were provided by the government, while others were made by the public.
The entire large plaza had many railings erected, covered with various colorful lanterns. Each lantern had a riddle on it, and whoever guessed the riddle correctly could take the lantern home.
Each person was limited to taking one lantern. After all, if one person solved all the riddles and took them all, it would be awkward.
On the day of the lantern festival, all vehicles were prohibited from entering this area.
In addition to the lantern festival, there were several other exhibitions nearby, selling food, clothing, and daily necessities.
To ensure safety, vehicles were not allowed to pass through.
Upon arriving at the plaza, the Shen family members skillfully dispersed, each going their own way.
Shen Yao, accompanied by Mo Chen, each holding a little one, went to the central plaza.
As soon as they reached the plaza, the two little ones were captivated by the colorful lanterns.
Their eyes were glued to the glowing little lanterns, and they made excited babbling sounds.
Shen Yao and Mo Chen each picked up a small lantern, and after solving the riddles, these two lanterns were theirs.
Shen Yao hung the small lantern on the little dumpling's carrier, allowing the little dumpling to see it.
It had to be said that the lanterns at this festival were all uniquely made, especially some that made people want to take them home.
Fortunately, the general public's quality was high, and no one tried to take advantage of the situation, so the order was very good.
After strolling through the lantern festival, the next order of business was naturally eating and drinking.
However, with the two little ones in tow, eating and drinking became quite inconvenient.
Shen Yao gave up on the soupy dishes she wanted to eat and turned to the barbecue stall uncle, ordering a large portion of hand-pulled meat.
The little dumpling: ...
Jiaozi: ...
Mo Chen was now extremely calm about such matters. While waiting for the hand-pulled meat, he turned to the milk tea shop next door and bought two cups of milk tea.
One was taro pearl milk, with no sugar and less ice, and the other was plain tea.
The taro pearl milk was, of course, for Shen Yao.
Handing the milk tea to Shen Yao, her eyes lit up, "How did you know I wanted to drink milk tea!"
Mo Chen smiled and didn't reply. It was a joke; after being with her for so long, how could he not know that she liked to drink milk tea while eating barbecue?
Others paired their barbecue with small beers, but she was different; she liked to pair it with milk tea.
