Without the annoying people talking nonsense, the commotion in the Xiang family died down, and the laughter and joy of those who came to congratulate made the stagnant atmosphere joyful again.

Not long after, Xiang Lidang came back happily, parked his bicycle, and went home with his beautiful bride in his arms.

Although he viewed his wife An You as a blind date partner, he had developed feelings for her during their engagement period, and now he proudly placed the beautiful bride in the hall.

Both of them were wearing brand new Zhongshan suits and had a palm-sized red flower pinned on their chests.

The brides all tied their hair up, and those who let their hair down were mostly unmarried girls. An You looked neat and tidy with her hair tied up.

She was only 17 years old, young and lively, and she wore a silver bracelet on purpose as a proof of her family's love for her.

Compared with her pale sister-in-law Wang Chunting, she is youthful, pretty and rosy-cheeked and looks particularly beautiful. There is a big gap between the two sisters-in-law.

Xiang Liguo, a big and strong man, didn't feel anything, but Xiang Mianmian knew the little thoughts between the sisters-in-law. She immediately pushed him and signaled him to go and comfort his eldest sister-in-law.

This man was really careless. He thought that the youngest sister asked him to hold the child, so he grabbed his daughter Xiang Youfeng and put her on his shoulders to look at the bride.

A straight man, there is no hope.

Xiang Mianmian was speechless for a moment and didn't care whether his brother lived or died.

The newlyweds held the ceremony according to the procedures and offered tea to their parents. Everyone stood by and smiled and gave their blessings.

After the change of name fee was given to the newlyweds and the ceremony was completed, Zhang Jidi smiled at Hongqi and his wife, but the Anjia couple couldn't hold back their tears.

It’s sad to think that the daughter they had spoiled for many years ended up becoming someone else’s daughter-in-law.

Everyone who marries off their daughter has gone through this. Older people have all experienced this and are skilled at pulling the parents-in-law to their new home to comfort them. After all, the daughter is marrying nearby and it is convenient for her to come back.

The purpose of settling down is to be close to home. Although the son-in-law is not particularly outstanding, he is also a promising young man.

Thinking of this, I feel much better.

In the past two years, a new custom has gradually emerged in the county town. After the ceremony, people give candies and red envelopes to relatives and friends who come to bless and bring good luck.

Zhang Jidi also arranged this link.

This task was done by Xiang Mianmian and Xiang Lili. They had brought the wedding candies, melon seeds, peanuts, and some small red envelopes in them, which they scattered out depending on their hand speed.

After a period of frantic grabbing, those who got more were all grinning from ear to ear, saying nice things and congratulating them on their wedding, which made the newlyweds feel shy.

Next is making the bed.

At this time, the strength of her mother's family can be seen. The An family prepared ten quilts for An You, and two of the quilt covers were embroidered with smooth mulberry silk ribbons.

The man who made the bed carefully searched for the joyful decorations in the quilt, fearing that the burrs on his hands would scratch them.

Moreover, all the furniture An You brought was good quality. The wood, copper locks, etc. were all carefully prepared. It was obvious to the naked eye that they were much better than those of sister-in-law Wang Chunting.

Some people probably knew the inside story and didn't say much.

After all, who hasn't had a little bit of competition between sisters-in-law? There's no benefit in saying it out loud, so why bother saying it?

Ming Erni and Wang Chunting did not look very good.

Although the Wang family has only four children, the pillar of the family passed away early, and it was not easy for Ming Erni to raise four children alone. No matter how good the dowry was, it would not be much beyond the ordinary.

The third son's wife, An You, is different. She comes from a wealthy family and is quite favored. It is obvious that she wants to suppress her eldest sister-in-law.

Xiang Mianmian is already having a headache. It's difficult to deal with. The two sisters-in-law are bound to compete with each other, and the peace in the family is probably gone forever.

Although the eldest brother and his wife live in the steel plant compound, and the third brother and his wife live in the methane plant, the two families have little intersection, but An You started to pick a fight as soon as he came in, I'm afraid he is not a good person.

Amidst this worry, the bed was made quickly.

Relatives and friends called their friends, and a few acquaintances gathered together, carrying the bowls they brought and went to the door to eat the banquet.

Put aside all the little thoughts in your heart and go to the banquet to help serve dishes and rice.

This is the Chinese tradition. Internal conflicts within the family are internal conflicts and cannot be revealed to the outside world. Instead, an image of harmony and unity must be created.

As the glasses clinked, the newlyweds toasted all their relatives and friends before they could sit down and eat.

An You rubbed her face, which was stiff from her fake smile, and said to Xiang Lidang, "Third brother, I haven't been able to eat since this morning. Is there any soup?"

Xiang Lidang, who was also extremely hungry, thought for a moment and pointed to the kitchen while eating. "There should be sweet potato porridge in the kitchen. Go get a bowl and try it."

An You was sulking in her heart, you idiot, I want you to bring me a bowl of food!

Xiang Mianmian, who had heard this, went to bring over a bowl of sweet potato porridge: "Third sister-in-law, there are just two bowls left. Let them cool down and they will be more delicious. Try some."

Xiang Lidang frowned when he saw this: "Little sister, why are you serving porridge? She..."

Ever since he got the job, he favored the youngest sister the most among all his brothers and sisters. Usually, Xiang Lidang would do the work for Xiang Mianmian. How could he let the youngest sister serve porridge?

An You was also shocked. She was whispering to Xiang Lidang, how come her sister-in-law heard it and even helped to bring food?

Xiang Mianmian smiled and said, "It's okay. We've already given it to our relatives and friends today. Let Third Sister-in-law try ours too. It's made by Second Sister and it's delicious."

An You, who wanted to show affection but failed, quickly took it and said, "Thank you, little sister. I have some beautiful silk handkerchiefs. Come to my room later and I'll give you two."

She blinked at Xiang Mianmian with a little trepidation.

Xiang Lidang looked at his aunt and sister-in-law, said nothing, and continued eating.

He knew that harmony was the most important thing, but Xiang Mianmian would never be wronged by him, not even by his wife.

An You had already witnessed how much of a sister complex Xiang Lidang had after proposing marriage, and she was sweating in her heart. She didn't breathe a sigh of relief until Xiang Lidang stopped talking and lowered his head to eat.

I drank some sweet potato porridge to calm myself down.

The weather in May is not hot, and it is even cool on cloudy days. An You's back is almost sweating.

During the engagement process, Xiang Lidang repeatedly emphasized that Xiang Mianmian was his most beloved sister. Even after getting married, he planned to save money to give his youngest sister an additional 400 yuan.

An You was puzzled and even made a fuss, but Xiang Lidang insisted on having his own way.

The An family's parents were very experienced. They had asked Zhang Jidi about the inside story and knew that their son-in-law got his job with the letter of introduction from Mianmian. They also tended to let An You love her sister-in-law more.

She's already 12 years old, how many years can she stay at home? Just bear with it and treat her like your own sister.

Although Anyou is the youngest in the family, it is okay to treat Xiang Mianmian as a niece, since they are only a few years apart.

Treat your sister-in-law better, and Xiang Lidang will naturally treat her as his wife better. It’s not a big deal. Just buy her some delicious and fun things to coax her.

Didn’t you see that An You also brought a silk handkerchief? This was a gift specially prepared for Xiang Mianmian.

Everyone else is wearing the same pair of shoes, except for this youngest sister. It wouldn't be a bad idea to spend a little more time on it.

Now that An You is married, she can no longer throw tantrums like she did at home. She has to learn the ways of the world.
