The next day.

Qiao Xiaoshan and Ma Yulan arrived in Kyushu City. Wang Fanfan accompanied them, but their mother-in-law stayed home to manage the shop.

Actually, everyone knows the real reason, but it's mainly inconvenient, given the somewhat awkward relationship between the two families.

Qiao Hainan also wanted to come, but Qiao Haisheng persuaded him to stay at home. After all, the child was still young, and the old man needed someone to take care of him. Besides, they would hold another banquet in the village later, so it wouldn't be too late to attend then.

With more people, having more houses becomes advantageous. The lease on the rented house still has several months left, which is perfect for arranging for my second brother to stay.

night.

The family finally gathered and went to Zhou Family Restaurant, which was Zhou Huang's restaurant. After he and Jin Weiwei confirmed their relationship, Jin's father bought the restaurant as part of his daughter's dowry.

It has to be said that the rich can be capricious; they just bought such a big store without hesitation.

We were treated to the largest private room, and all the restaurant's signature dishes were served. Zhou Huang cooked personally, which was extremely rare, and the waiters dared not neglect him in the slightest.

After all the dishes were served, Su Chenhao toasted his father-in-law, his brother-in-law, and his second brother-in-law.

With the wedding in two days, he and Qiao Xiaoni would be unable to see each other after this meal. They had to abide by family customs. From their first meeting to getting to know each other and falling in love, the two had been through many things but had never separated.

Li Meihua served Tao Chunfang a bowl of black chicken soup: "Have a sip first. Didn't you just say you were hungry?"

"Mom, I can manage on my own." Tao Chunfang had no right to let her mother-in-law take care of her all the time.

Li Meihua smiled and said nothing more. Her daughter was about to get married, and these past few days she had been dreaming about her daughter giving birth and her becoming a grandmother.

Ma Yulan was a little reserved when she ate a reunion dinner with everyone for the first time, but fortunately, with Qiao Xiaoshan taking care of her, she quickly adapted.

Wang Fanfan was taken care of meticulously by Su Chenqiu, who picked out whatever she wanted to eat and put it on his plate.

This angered Qiao Manli, who felt ignored, and her little mouth pouted so much it looked like she could hang an oil bottle on it.

When Su Chenqiu noticed, her eyes were red and she looked like she was about to cry. She was quickly given her favorite food, which prevented a tantrum.

After they had almost finished eating, Qiao Haisheng looked at Ma Yulan and said, "Second son's wife, although you two are not officially married yet, you are already recognized as my family's daughter-in-law."

I don't know what your mother-in-law thinks, but I think since the two of you are together, you should get married sooner rather than later. You should discuss it with her when you go back this time.

"Are you getting married this year or another year? Give me a straight answer so my wife and I can be happy."

“Uncle! My mother-in-law told me that you can decide the date. Her only requirements are that we take care of her in her old age and that Fanfan cannot change her surname,” Ma Yulan replied solemnly.

Qiao Haisheng: "Your mother-in-law is a reasonable person. These two requests are not excessive, and they are things we must do."

Qiao Xiaoshan raised his glass and drank it all in one gulp, then said to everyone, "I plan to get married this May. The date has already been chosen."

Everyone was taken aback at first, then couldn't help but laugh. It turned out that the groom was even more anxious than they were.

There was a knock on the door, then it was pushed open.

Zhou Huang walked in with a smile: "How is the meal I prepared today? Does it suit your taste?"

"It's delicious. Your cooking has improved since last time," Qiao Xiaoni replied.
