Chapter 110 Stunning Matching Outfits for Parents! A Fashion Show in the Compound!
Qin Lie's domineering yet affectionate public declaration of love was like an earthquake of magnitude 8, completely shaking the entire Capital Military Region compound.
The next day, this incident became the hottest gossip in all the family compounds.
"Have you heard? At yesterday's dance, Deputy Division Commander Qin publicly berated Deputy Commander Lu's daughter until she cried because of his country wife!"
"It's more than just making them cry! They didn't hold back at all in their words! They directly said the other person wasn't worthy!"
"My God! That Lu Yao is the most beautiful girl in our compound. She's so arrogant and looks down on everyone else, only focusing on Deputy Division Commander Qin. Now look what's happened, she's completely lost face."
"If you ask me, Deputy Division Commander Qin handled this matter very well! Married men should keep their distance from other women. Especially that Lu Yao, knowing he was married, she still went after him. What was she thinking?"
"Exactly! You didn't see the way Deputy Division Commander Qin looked at his wife, it was like he was drowning her! I think Jiang Wu has completely captured Deputy Division Commander Qin's heart!"
Public opinion is overwhelmingly in favor of the government.
Everyone sided with Jiang Wu.
Women envied her for finding such a devoted and irresistible man.
The men secretly admired Qin Lie's decisiveness and sense of responsibility.
Lu Yao, on the other hand, became a complete joke.
She didn't dare to go out for several days in a row. I heard that she smashed everything she could at home and cried her heart out.
After this battle, Jiang Wu's position as the "Empress of the Qin Family" was as if it had been welded shut, and no one could shake it anymore.
Jiang Wu did not become complacent because of this victory.
As long as the Lu family exists, this war without gunpowder is far from over.
What she needs to do is make herself stronger and more irreplaceable.
Not only must she be irreplaceable in a man's heart, but she must also be irreplaceable in this circle.
Soon, the opportunity came.
August 1st is Army Day.
This is a holiday that is even more important than the Lunar New Year in the military.
A grand garden party is to be held in the compound, and all families are required to participate.
A week before the party, the Qin family's courtyard once again became a gathering place for military wives.
This time, they weren't here to learn about skincare.
They came to "learn from the masters".
"Little Wu, give us some advice! What should we dress the kids in for Army Day?"
"Yes, yes, it's the same few old clothes every year, there's no creativity at all. All the kids in our compound look like they were made from the same mold."
Seeing her sisters-in-law's worried faces, Jiang Wu smiled.
She took out several design drawings that she had already prepared from inside the house.
"Sisters, what do you think of this?"
Everyone crowded around to take a look, and their eyes lit up instantly.
Those were sets of novel and adorable "parent-child outfits".
Some were mothers' dresses and daughters' pinafore dresses, made of the same patterned fabric.
Some pairs consist of the father's shirt and the son's shorts, with the same nautical design on the pockets or collar.
"Oh my god! This is so beautiful!"
"Mom and child wearing the same clothes? That's an amazing idea!"
"Little Wu, how do you think your brain works? How do you always come up with so many brilliant ideas that we could never even imagine!"
The sisters-in-law chattered excitedly, like a group of little girls.
In those days, the concept of "matching outfits for parents and children" was unheard of.
Jiang Wu's design undoubtedly pioneered a brand new fashion trend.
“If you like them, I’ll give you the patterns so you can make them yourself,” Jiang Wu said with a smile. “They’re all made using the simplest cutting techniques. A skillful sister-in-law can make one in a day or two.”
In the following days, a wave of making "matching outfits" swept through the entire residential compound.
The women gathered together, operating sewing machines and exchanging their experiences.
The entire compound was immersed in a joyful atmosphere of creation and anticipation.
Army Day has arrived as scheduled.
Colorful flags fluttered in the air on the playground of the compound, which was packed with people.
When Qin Lie and his family of four appeared, they instantly attracted everyone's attention.
Qin Lie was dressed in a crisp military uniform, while Jiang Wu wore a modified cheongsam in the same color scheme as his uniform.
It was a dark green velvet cheongsam, with several upright green bamboos embroidered on it in gold thread.
The design retains the elegance of traditional cheongsams, but incorporates modern modifications at the collar and cuffs, making it both dignified and fashionable.
The two little ones are the most eye-catching.
Qin Zhan was wearing a mini version of a military uniform. His small body stood straight, looking like a majestic little general.
Qin Zhao wore a mini cheongsam of the same style and fabric as her mother's, with her hair tied in two topknots. She was as cute as a New Year's painting doll.
This family of four looks like they stepped out of a magazine.
The man was heroic, the woman was gentle, and the child was adorable.
Standing together, they form a beautiful sight.
"It's so beautiful! It's absolutely gorgeous!"
"So this is the matching family outfit Xiaowu was talking about! It's so fashionable!"
Following that, other families began to appear one after another.
Sister-in-law Wang and her daughter were wearing polka-dot mother-daughter dresses.
Sister-in-law Li and her son were wearing matching blue and white striped sailor shirts.
...
In an instant, the entire playground seemed to have turned into a giant catwalk show.
Families dressed in various "matching outfits" proudly displayed their "creations".
The children, dressed in the same clothes as their parents, beamed with happiness and pride.
What were once monotonous holiday gatherings have become vibrant and colorful thanks to these ingenious costumes.
The entire compound was immersed in a sea of joy.
Jiang Wu, the "instigator" of all this, was surrounded by a group of excited military wives.
"Little Wu! You're truly our fashion icon!"
"From now on, the fashion trends in our compound will depend on you!"
Even the usually stern officers smiled approvingly as they looked at their refreshed wives and children.
Jiang Wu used her talent and wisdom to not only win the hearts of women, but also to earn the respect of men.
She is no longer just "Qin Lie's wife" or "the hero who saved lives".
She became a unique, indispensable, and inspiring figure in the compound, bringing joy and happiness to everyone.
In a corner of the crowd.
Lu Yao stood alone, wearing a carefully chosen dress.
She looked at Jiang Wu, who was surrounded by people and had a radiant smile.
Looking at those families wearing ugly "matching outfits" but smiling happily.
Her heart was filled with sharp pain and a sense of powerless frustration.
She lost.
We lost completely.
Her proud family background and beauty were utterly insignificant in the face of Jiang Wu's powerful charm that could easily win people's hearts.
Just then, a tall figure blocked her view.
It was her father, Deputy Commander Lu.
"Do you see that?" Deputy Commander Lu's voice was devoid of any warmth. "That's the difference between you and her."
"You only think about how to use your family background to intimidate people and how to steal a man."
"But she was thinking about how to make everyone like her and how to create her own value."
"Yaoyao, remember this. Dealing with people like the Qin family is useless with a woman's petty tricks."
Deputy Commander Lu's gaze swept past the crowd and landed coldly on Qin Lie and Qin Weijun in the distance.
"The real war is in places you can't see."
"The game has only just begun."
His words made Lu Yao's body tremble violently.
Meanwhile, after enjoying everyone's praise, Jiang Wu was finally able to escape.
She returned to Qin Lie's side, watching the two children frolicking on the grass, a satisfied smile appearing on her face.
Qin Lie held her hand and whispered, "Wife, thank you."
Thank you for making my world so colorful.
Jiang Wu took his hand in return, about to say something.
The family heirloom jade bracelet on her wrist, which had always been quiet, suddenly emitted an extremely faint yet exceptionally clear burning sensation.
Jiang Wu's expression suddenly changed.
She subconsciously raised her head and looked in the direction from which the burning sensation was coming.
Her gaze pierced through the noisy crowd and landed precisely on the back of Deputy Commander Lu, who had just turned and left.
No, it wasn't Deputy Commander Lu.
It was a middle-aged man in a Zhongshan suit who was following behind him and looked unremarkable.
The man seemed to notice her gaze, paused, and turned to look at her.
The moment their eyes met.
