With school closed, students can stay in the dorms because the cafeteria is on holiday and there are no meals available. They had come back early for their weddings, with two weeks until the start of the semester. Qiao Xiaoni, of course, had to consider their situation.
It's a good opportunity to arrange for Zhou Meiling to stay here. Since the bride and groom can't meet before the wedding, this way she can have someone to keep her company.
Zhou Meiling had gained a lot of weight; I almost didn't recognize her when we met. Her down jacket was clearly zipped up halfway, even though they had bought it together. She took off her coat and changed into slippers.
Qiao Xiaoni pulled Zhou Meiling back into the room: "How did you get so fat? You've gained at least 20 pounds. Will you even be able to fit into your school uniform when school starts?"
"Ah! I really hadn't thought about that. Will I really not be able to wear it?" Zhou Meiling pinched her waist casually; it was all flesh.
She's been enjoying herself at home too much and has unknowingly gained weight. She used to weigh 83 pounds, which was too thin, and her parents were hoping she would gain some weight.
“I think it’s possible. Your school uniform is the smallest size. Looking at you now, you’d be struggling to even fit into my clothes.” Qiao Xiaoni said, then went to the closet and took out the school uniform: “You’ll know once you try it on.”
Zhou Meiling picked up her school uniform jacket and put it on. Well, she could barely button it up, so she was certain that she couldn't wear it.
"What should we do?" Zhou Meiling took off her school uniform and put it by the bed. For the first time, she wasn't unhappy about having so much extra flesh.
"We'll figure something out then! Maybe some of the senior girls have lost weight, and you can exchange your school uniforms, but the chances are a bit slim." Qiao Xiaoni couldn't help but laugh.
Zhou Meiling was still angry, but hearing her laughing so happily, she decided to get revenge and pinned her to the bed and started tickling her.
Qiao Xiaoni's whole body was ticklish, and she couldn't stand the torment, so she kept laughing.
Su Chenhao and Song Mingyuan sat outside chatting. Hearing them laughing so happily, they shook their heads at the same time, then smiled at each other.
"How was it? How was your stay at your father-in-law's?" Su Chenhao picked up the teapot on the table and poured him a cup of tea.
"It's going well. Their family has already accepted me, and now all that's left is for both sets of parents to meet and discuss the marriage." Song Mingyuan was a little smug. Things were going even more smoothly than he had imagined; his parents were indeed very farsighted, preparing so many things for him in advance.
However, we have to thank Sun Jie's parents for their incredible help; they came to cause trouble on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year. Fortunately, they were there, so Zhou Meiling's parents didn't lose face in front of relatives and friends.
Sun Jie's parents left dejectedly, having gained nothing. It's likely that after this incident, they won't come back to cause trouble again.
"I have to say you're lucky, kid. Your parents are reliable," Su Chenhao couldn't help but exclaim.
Song Mingyuan: "Yes, they are all very supportive of me, which is my biggest help. Otherwise, I really might not have been able to handle it."
"It's getting dark, aren't you going home tonight?" Su Chenhao asked with a smile, putting down his teacup. The kid hadn't said when he was going home yet.
“I’m afraid Meiling will be scared living here alone. Can’t she stay?” Song Mingyuan said matter-of-factly.
"That really won't work. Nizi said she'll be staying here for the next couple of days until after the wedding. It won't be convenient for you to stay. So, you'd better come with me later!"
