The wedding dress featured very voluminous sleeves, which accentuated her slim waist and abdomen. The wide, floor-length skirt was just the right height for Lin Zhaoyue to carry off without needing heels. The lace design on the chest was exquisite, making her fair face look exceptionally beautiful.
Lin Zhaoyue was looking down at the shop assistant adjusting her skirt when she inadvertently looked up and saw Jiang Jingzhou standing in front of her, holding a small bouquet of roses.
Jiang Jingzhou's dark pupils widened sharply, his breath caught in his throat, and his heart pounded even harder.
"Comrade Jiang, the clothes you need to change into are over here," the shop assistant said, bringing the atmosphere back to normal.
Jiang Jingzhou gave a hoarse "hmm," then realized what he meant and handed over the flowers, saying, "Here you go."
This is?
Lin Zhaoyue was puzzled.
The shop assistant remarked enviously, "We used artificial flowers for our wedding photos, but Comrade Jiang insisted on using real flowers. I think real flowers look better."
So, Jiang Jingzhou just went to buy flowers?
The roses look freshly picked; they're vibrant in color and have a delicate floral fragrance when you hold them in your hand.
Flowers complement a beautiful woman.
The vibrant red roses paled in comparison to my wife's exquisite features, becoming mere background elements.
Perhaps it was the man's gaze that was too intense, because Lin Zhaoyue stared straight at him, her ears turning slightly red, and she shyly reminded him, "Change your clothes."
"Okay, okay," Jiang Jingzhou then followed the shop assistant to change his clothes.
—A white shirt, a black suit, and a tie. He stood tall and straight, with broad shoulders, a narrow waist, and long legs. It was the first time Lin Zhaoyue had ever seen him wear anything other than a military uniform. Sure enough, good-looking people look good no matter what they wear. His proportions were comparable to those of a model.
"You two are truly a handsome man and a beautiful woman! You look so good just standing here, you must look even better on camera!!"
The shop assistant showered him with compliments.
Taking photos is quite tiring, as it requires changing three outfits. By the end, Lin Zhaoyue's face was almost numb from smiling so much.
The wedding photos were rushed, and by the time Lin Zhaoyue changed into her own clothes it was already 12:30 pm. She was so hungry she felt a little dizzy.
"What do you want to eat?" Jiang Jingzhou noticed that she was hungry and regretted that he should have brought some food to tide him over before filming for such a long time.
"Anything is fine," Lin Zhaoyue really is willing to eat anything now, as long as she can eat something quickly.
"To the state-run restaurant," Jiang Jingzhou said, stepping on the gas pedal and quickly accelerating the car.
The compound
The Jiang family.
Hua Xiuyun also had something to do at home today: making a wedding quilt.
They called on Jiang Jingzhou's aunts and other relatives to come and help, as a blessing for the newlyweds.
Everyone was quite curious about Jiang Jingzhou's new wife and kept asking Hua Xiuyun about her.
Whose wonderful girl is this? She's so lucky!
Jiang Jingzhou is notoriously picky, and now that he's taken, I wonder what kind of girl could win him over.
Hua Xiuyun kept everyone in suspense for a moment, "...You'll find out on the wedding day."
"You're quite mysterious, aren't you?"
"Exactly, you two really kept it a secret at the beginning, not revealing a single word."
"..." Hua Xiuyun smiled. Actually, she hadn't known about it much earlier than everyone else.
"Guofu is back?"
"Our beloved Grandpa Xi has arrived!"
Hua Xiuyun looked up and saw that it really was Old Jiang.
She opened her mouth with a smile, about to speak, when Jiang Guofu, with a stern face, glanced around the courtyard and asked in a serious tone, "What are you doing?"
"Making the wedding quilt is a bit rushed for the wedding date, isn't it?"
"Hmph!" Before Hua Xiuyun could finish speaking, Jiang Guofu snorted coldly, turned around angrily, and went into the house.
What happened this time?
Hua Xiuyun immediately frowned, gave everyone an awkward smile, and said, "Don't bother with him. I don't know what's wrong with him again. I'm going inside."
Inside the room, Jiang Guofu's face grew increasingly dark, his chest heaving violently. He slammed his hand heavily on the table, making the teacups rattle.
"You're throwing a tantrum as soon as you get back. If you don't like me, let's get a divorce after our son's wedding!"
Hua Xiuyun hated his bad temper the most. If you have something to say, just say it. Who are you trying to impress with that long face?!
Home is not a place for him to throw tantrums!
When Jiang Guofu heard that his wife was angry, his anger subsided a lot. "I'm not angry at you, I'm angry at that good-for-nothing in our family! How come no one informed me about such a big event as his son's wedding?" He had only heard about it from others today. He, as the father, didn't even know when his son was getting married. It was truly laughable.
So that's what it was for.
Hua Xiuyun explained impatiently, "My son has fallen in love at first sight. Who can say for sure about matters of the heart?"
Besides, "When you first met me, weren't you in such a hurry to marry me? How dare you talk about your son now!"
What's wrong with being in a hurry to get married and have a grandson?
Hua Xiuyun rolled her eyes. "I've been busy these past few days and don't have time to coax you. You'd better act normal!"
Jiang Guofu grew anxious, "So you know something about that girl?"
Hua Xiuyun was completely bewildered by the question. "Who? You mean our future daughter-in-law? Of course I know her. She even went to propose to our son yesterday! The girl is quite pretty, and her future father-in-law is a reasonable person. What's wrong?"
Hua Xiuyun was very satisfied.
"What do you mean?" Jiang Guofu jumped up anxiously. "My good wife, the girl your son married is going to the countryside with her family in a while. Do you understand what's going on now?"
"They're in such a rush to get married, they must have used some underhanded methods to fool your son! He's young and doesn't understand, how can you be so immature too! Does the Jiang family accept just any daughter-in-law?"
Jiang Guofu shouted, and Hua Xiuyun picked her ear with obvious disgust.
Such a young person is not mature at all!
That's it?
I thought it was something serious.
Hua Xiuyun looked up at him and said, "So, according to you, we can't have a daughter-in-law like this. We have to refuse her no matter what, and if Jingzhou doesn't listen, we should completely sever ties with our son?"
Jiang Guofu: "..." Shouldn't it be like this?
This brat is disobedient and has no future to live. How can I marry a wife like that?
"Tell me, how old is your son now?" Hua Xiuyun asked calmly, raising an eyebrow.
"..." Jiang Guofu choked for a moment.
To be honest, he really didn't know how old his son was.
In my early twenties?
Hua Xiuyun was speechless. If they weren't already this old, she would have loved to give him a good beating!
They don't even know how old their son is.
“Your son is already twenty-six this year! When you were twenty-six, Jingzhou was already in elementary school.”
Old Jiang, let me be honest with you. I originally wanted to marry your son someone who was a good match for him in every way. But your son has been so celibate ever since, I was prepared to never have a grandson in my life. But then he suddenly came back and told me he wanted to get married.
"As long as she's a woman, I have no other requirements." "So what if her daughter-in-law's background isn't good? Her son's background is perfectly fine!"
Jiang Guofu was utterly stunned by his wife's words...
