Chapter 193 It Really Took a Lot of Thought

I hoped to leave a cheerful and confident impression on my mother-in-law, but I didn't expect that just after meeting her for a short time, the enthusiasm that I had accumulated with great difficulty in my heart quickly dissipated like being drenched by cold rain.

No matter how hard I try, I can't rekindle the spark.

"Mother is so dazzling today!"

As a housewife, Zhang Wei naturally pays attention to the changes in her elders.

She also carefully selected a green outfit, but the color was brighter and more eye-catching.

But in terms of overall image and temperament, she is still not as stunning as her mother's natural and unique charm.

Seeing her daughters-in-law dressing up carefully, Zhao Chunhua couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion: It's great to be young!

Everyone has their own charm, so there is no need to worry too much about who is better in terms of outward appearance.

Tang Jianxi's outfit was quite decent; the pink and green colors were eye-catching yet not out of place.

This combination makes her look lively and elegant, and people can't help but take a second look at her when they see her.

Zhang Wei's outfit is somewhat controversial.

The upper body is light green, the lower body is dark ink-black, and the color saturation is so high that it will cause visual fatigue if people stare at it for a long time.

But overall, this contrasting color combination actually adds a bit of mystery to her and makes her appearance more attractive.

After all, young women look good even if they dress simply, and they have the charm of youth as the best decoration.

The whole family chose green as the main clothing color to varying degrees, also because green was the easiest to obtain in that era.

Whether it is the light green of light grass or the deep green, these tones are relatively easy to find fabrics in daily life.

Therefore, when the family stands together, the natural and harmonious feeling makes them stand out.

The carriage full of people swayed towards Zhaojia Village, and the driver sighed inwardly: Let's not talk about the character of these people, just based on their appearance, none of them is ugly.

Even on the dusty road, they still maintained a kind of indescribable neatness and cleanliness, as if forming a wonderful contrast with the surrounding environment.

But when I think about it carefully, I feel that this is also a natural thing.

After all, people are naturally fond of beautiful things, and the Shu family was not poor, so the marriage partners of their descendants had obviously been carefully selected.

Every family member has inherited excellent genes and good upbringing, making them stand out in the crowd.

Even Li Cuihua, who remarried, was considered to have outstanding appearance.

Although it has experienced many ups and downs, it still maintains a dignified and elegant beauty.

However, the Li family was forced to flee here after a disaster many years ago and now live in different villages.

The journey was quite difficult, but they never gave up their yearning for life.

When the convoy slowly drove into Zhaojia Village, people were seen coming and going in an endless stream, making the scene quite lively.

Vendors in the market were enthusiastically hawking their wares, children were chasing and playing happily, and old people were sitting under the shade of trees, leisurely chatting and drinking tea.

Everything presents a harmonious and happy picture.

When we were almost near Zhao's house, we noticed that there were several carriages parked nearby.

Several local wealthy men came specially to visit, and even the county magistrate sent his men to deliver gifts and invitations, inviting Zhao Yunfeng to come to his house for a gathering in three days.

It is obvious that this owner has a very high reputation in the family and has received attention and respect from all walks of life.

The three Zhao Yicheng brothers were busy welcoming guests outside, and everyone had a happy smile on their face.

Whether meeting old friends whom they haven't seen for many years or new guests visiting for the first time, they treat them with courtesy and show their sense of responsibility as hosts.

There was a festive atmosphere in the air, making everyone present feel warm and comfortable.

Seeing them approaching, Zhao Yikang quickly stepped forward, took the little stone from his hands, and gently patted the back of the child in his arms to comfort him.

Then he turned around and led everyone into the house.

"Dad has been waiting for you at home for a long time. He should have let me pick you up."

As he spoke, he smiled and shook his head, "The elders have been asking about your schedule this morning, and I have answered them many times."

His tone was relaxed and casual, yet it also revealed full of anticipation and welcome.

People are always in a good mood during happy events. Zhao Yikang himself loves to chat, and at this moment he kept talking, making it difficult for people to interrupt him.

His mouth was like a motor, telling all kinds of stories non-stop, leaving people no chance to breathe.

Everyone could only listen with a smile, nodding and agreeing occasionally, so as not to be considered as uninterested and feel sad.

"I deliberately didn't let you answer. Next time I'll take you to the temple to listen to the monks chanting and see if you can sit still."

He said this with a mischievous smile, as if he was already looking forward to the day when he could see with his own eyes the other party falling asleep due to the boring chanting.

This statement was obviously directed at someone who liked to make noise. Everyone understood who he was referring to and couldn't help laughing.

Zhao Yunfeng was already waiting outside the door. Seeing her coming, Zhao Chunhua quickened her pace to meet her.

Our house is very lively today because there is an important happy event to celebrate and the air is filled with joy.

"It is indeed very lively at home today. Congratulations, big brother. Please don't despise this small token of my appreciation."

Zhao Chunhua handed the exquisite little box in the basket to her elder brother with a hint of shyness in her tone.

The box was wrapped in fine silk and decorated with a beautiful bow. You could tell at a glance that a lot of thought had gone into it.

Zhao Yunfeng was quite surprised to see Zhao Chunhua looking so lively.

My sister usually dresses simply, but today she put on light makeup and wore a fitted floral dress. She looked radiant. "She should dress up like this. She looks a lot younger."

There was a gleam of appreciation in his eyes as he said this, and he was obviously very pleased with her careful preparations today.

"Thank you for your kind blessing, big brother. You actually said that I look old."

Zhao Chunhua responded with feigned dissatisfaction, but the smile in her eyes revealed the fact that she was not really angry.

In order to further express this pretended emotion, she deliberately picked a seat to sit down, and slightly puffed up her cheeks to make an angry look, just like the image of a cute little girl.

Zhao Yunbai never missed any opportunity to tease, and when he saw this situation, he immediately stepped forward and said, "Brother, you really don't think before you speak. My sister is always young and beautiful. She looks good on weekdays, but she is particularly beautiful today."

Her voice contained both support for her sister and a hint of teasing, making the atmosphere more relaxed and cheerful.
