The Buyao people only get injured in battle. This kind of behavior of deliberately piercing your body will only make your tribe look down on you.
“Now that you’ve gotten your ears pierced, I can buy you gold earrings. Look at all those girls on the street, they look so pretty with earrings on them!” Wang Ma thought that no girl didn’t want to be beautiful.
"I don't wear earrings; they're too cumbersome."
"..."
When Wang Ma couldn't convince her, she called Mei Ma, hoping she could persuade Mei Si.
“I can’t handle her. When she was little, I wanted to pierce her ears. I even prepared soybeans for it. But as soon as she found out I was going to pierce her ears, she ran away.” Mei’s mother couldn’t understand it. Her daughter was so brave, yet she was afraid of getting her ears pierced?
"Why don't you ask if there are any places that specialize in getting ears pierced? It seems like they can apply numbing cream now. If Sisi knows it won't hurt, maybe she'll get it done?" Mei's mother thought for a moment and said.
"I found a place where I could apply numbing cream, but Sisi disagreed."
Even though her own mother didn't work out, Wang Ma was still unwilling to give up. She planned to let her son give it a try. After all, he was her future husband, and Mei Si should be able to listen to his opinion, right?
"Get your ears pierced? Sisi doesn't like ear piercings." Wang Celou didn't even bother to persuade Mei Si and directly refused Wang Ma's offer.
"I know she doesn't like it, but we're getting married, and gold earrings look good on her."
"Sisi wouldn't get her ears pierced just for looks."
"But I want to see Sisi dressed up beautifully when she gets married." Wang Ma started to feel uneasy. Was it wrong for her to want to buy earrings for her daughter-in-law?
When Wang Ce Lou noticed that Wang Ma's expression was off, he quickly thought of a solution. Since ancient times, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law has been a major issue, and he couldn't let the two of them start having conflicts before the wedding was even over.
"How about you make me a couple of fake earrings?" Wang Celou suggested tentatively.
If Mei Si were willing to get her ears pierced, she wouldn't still be without them. Since it's not going to work with Mei Si, the only option left is to talk to Wang Ma.
"Fake earrings? You child, it's not like we're short of money. Why would you want fake earrings? They have to be real, pure gold!" Wang Ma smacked her son, thinking he was being incredibly stingy by wanting to give his wife fake earrings.
"Mom! The fake earrings I'm talking about are the kind that don't require piercing your ears," Wang Celou said, both amused and exasperated.
Wang Celou: It seems I worried for nothing. My mother treats Sisi much better than I do.
"Oh! You should have said so sooner! That's a great idea, I'll go talk to the craftsman about it tomorrow!"
With the wedding approaching, Mei Si's dress was ready, and her mother asked her to try it on.
Mei Si put on a red shirt and red pants and stood in front of the mirror. Looking at herself in the mirror, Mei Si fell silent.
Meiss simply couldn't understand human thought. Why would they think that dressing up as a persimmon would look good on one's wedding day?
"My daughter is so beautiful! Wearing this red dress, she looks even more beautiful, like a fairy!" Mei's mother said happily as she looked at her daughter.
"..." Do all fairies look like persimmons?
The day before the wedding, the Hao family arrived. There were too many Hao family members to fit in the house, so Mei's mother booked a hotel upstairs in the Buyao Shopping Mall for her family to stay in.
On the wedding day, just as dawn was breaking, Wang Mei's two families began to get busy.
Wang Celou started compiling statistics on the convoy and discussing the driving routes with the drivers.
Meanwhile, Mei Si was pinned down on the bed by an older woman who started "pulling her hair".
Mei Si stayed up late last night chatting with her relatives, and now she's so sleepy she can barely keep her eyes open.
Seeing that the older woman was working quite slowly, Mei Si simply closed her eyes and dozed off for a while.
"...This is the first time I've ever seen someone fall asleep after having their face scrubbed." The older woman looked at Mei Si, who had fallen asleep, speechless. Didn't her face hurt? How could she still fall asleep?
When Mei Si was woken up again, it was two hours later. Mei Si washed her face and watched as the old woman smeared "white ash" on her face.
After the older woman finished her makeup, Mei Si looked at herself in the mirror. She had rosy cheeks, red lips, and a red flower in her hair.
Meisi: The authors in the group said that you should look beautiful every day during your honeymoon. Everyone says the wedding day is the most beautiful day, so should I do the same every day during my honeymoon?
While waiting for the groom, Mei's mother kept emphasizing that Mei should not resist and should do whatever others told her to do.
“You have to do whatever they ask you to do, even if you don’t want to. It’s just for the wedding, just bear with it!” Mei’s mother looked at her daughter with a serious expression, afraid that she might hit someone just because they were joking with her.
"Unable to resist?"
"No! Hold it in!"
"Why?" Why can't you resist when you get married?
"Why? Go ask Wang Celou tonight." Mei's mother was initially a little sad about her daughter's wedding, but upon hearing her daughter's "why," she immediately felt happy. She was finally free! She could leave all the "whys" to her son-in-law!
