If only she could get the most inconspicuous one. Since she got married, she had never seen Zhao Xiaoyu wear the same clothes or jewelry twice.
Zhao Zhaodi had to admit that Zhao Xiaoyu was radiant today, so beautiful that she didn't dare to stare at her for too long.
Whether it was clothes, jewelry, or banquets, she was no longer on the same level as them.
My mother-in-law never stopped talking today. She either praised my third uncle's family, or praised Xiaoyu's beauty, or marveled at their family's wealth. In short, she never stopped.
To be honest, there were a few times when she almost lost her temper. She didn't want to listen, not a single word. She thought, why not just marry her? Is she really that rare?
Zhao Ruxin twisted her handkerchief and sat next to her mother, feeling extremely jealous.
She was not only jealous of Zhao Xiaoyu's decent wedding, but also envious of her finding a good husband. She was not blind, she could see that Xiao Lei had eyes for her, and that he wanted Xiaoyu, not just for the wealth of his uncle's family.
Why can that dead girl be treated sincerely by others? It is extremely difficult for her to find a husband.
Wang kept a fake smile on her face the whole time, pretending to be calm. She saw more acquaintances today than last time. When they saw her, they were shocked at first, then disdainful, and ignored her the whole time.
She felt very uncomfortable. They didn't want to see her, and she didn't want to see them even more.
The banquet was over and everyone went their separate ways. Zhao Dashu saw everyone off. Even though he drank a lot of wine, he couldn't hold on any longer and fell asleep.
Zhao Xiaoyu wanted to come out and watch, but Xiao Lei stopped her, "You yawned a few times, go to sleep, I can handle it outside."
"Okay, let my mother go to sleep too." Kissing is quite tiring, but fortunately it only takes half a day.
Xiao Lei squeezed her palm and said, "Sleep a little longer, we have something important to do tonight."
Zhao Xiaoyu's eyes widened. She had felt something was amiss with this guy since the wedding reception. Was he now flirting with her in broad daylight?
Zhao Xiaoyu glared at him and said, "Behave yourself!"
Xiao Lei laughed grimly, "Go to sleep."
"Leizi, why did you come out?"
"Mom, go inside and rest. I'll just watch them clean up. You guys worked hard today. I didn't do anything."
"Why are you tired? Mom is happy. We will be a family from now on."
"Well, we're a family, so I want to be filial to my mother. Go and have some rest."
"You're not drunk?"
"No, isn't that cheating?"
Song covered her mouth and smiled as she walked into the house. She went to bed late last night and got up before dawn. She was indeed tired.
"You've worked hard. I'm going to go inside and take a nap."
After dinner in the evening, Zhao Xiaoyu was driven into the house by his parents.
Seeing his daughter follow Xiao Lei away, Zhao Dashu felt uncomfortable again.
The red candles burned brightly, illuminating the room. Zhao Xiaoyu sat at her dressing table after a bath, her rosy cheeks reflected in the bronze mirror. The clamor outside gradually faded, leaving only the occasional chirp of insects piercing the window paper.
Xiao Lei came into the room after taking a shower. He was nervous and awkward as he walked behind her. Then, a tall figure appeared in the mirror.
Zhao Xiaoyu suddenly didn't dare to look directly at him in the mirror. She lowered her eyelashes and stared at the rouge box on the dressing table.
"Let me help you." Zhao Xiaoyu shuddered as his fingers touched her temple. Xiao Lei chuckled softly; it seemed he wasn't the only one nervous.
He gently combed her long hair with the rhino horn comb in his hand.
The feeling of the comb teeth sliding across her hair made Zhao Xiaoyu squint slightly.
"Xiaoyu, thank you for not despising me. Thank you for giving Xiao Lei a home. I swear, I will never let you down in this life."
She almost blurted out and swore that she never believed it.
"Remember what you said today!"
