Chapter 1928: Chapter 1930: Getting Tidied Up

After hearing her mother-in-law’s words, Xiaoxiao felt that they were not entirely unreasonable. After all, this place is not modern times and has many limitations.

If they can indeed match the two people together, it might not be a bad thing, so she said, "Mother, don’t worry about Xiaoqiu. Let’s see what Wang Kui is like tonight. If he’s suitable, we can ask Xiaoqiu’s opinion then. If Xiaoqiu isn’t willing, then there’s no use talking, and we have to consider Wang Kui’s feelings too."

Yang Ming’s mother nodded after hearing this but still felt that her daughter and Wang Kui were quite a match, so she didn’t forget to instruct, "Third daughter-in-law, take Xiaoqiu to freshen up later."

"Got it, Mother, I’ll go now."

Xiaoxiao promised and then went out to find Yang Qiu.

Yang Qiu was inside watching Little Yueyue. The child was older and couldn’t be left alone when sleeping, lest she accidentally fall off and hurt herself.

Seeing Xiaoxiao enter, Yang Qiu got up and said, "Third sister-in-law, you can watch Little Yueyue. I’ll go out and help."

"It’s still early, they can finish preparing. Since Mother asked you to watch the child, you should stay here and watch her." Xiaoxiao said.

Yang Qiu thought that made sense, so she didn’t go out, and the two stayed inside.

They chatted idly, with Xiaoxiao not asking about Xiaoqiu’s thoughts this time, thinking she’d bring it up after Wang Kui left. Her mother-in-law would probably ask anyway, so there was no need for her to intervene.

So they talked about what Yang Qiu had been up to recently.

During this time, Yang Old Dad also returned from the fish pond, and Yang Ming’s mother told him about the situation. What could Yang Old Dad say? Since Wang Kui was coming, they’d see him first. Besides, nothing was decided yet.

The family thus prepared, waiting for Wang Kui to arrive.

As the time approached, Xiaoxiao pulled Yang Qiu up and said, "Yang Qiu, come on, let’s go change clothes."

"Third sister-in-law, what clothes are we changing into? What I’m wearing is fine; I just put it on this morning, no need to change." Yang Qiu said.

"We’ve been taking care of the child all day, and we smell of baby mess. When guests come, it’s not good for them to smell that on us. Let’s go, bring the child and let Father and Mother watch her for a while."

Xiaoxiao found an excuse; her mother-in-law gave the task, and she had to complete it.

Upon hearing this, Yang Qiu raised her arm to smell her sleeves, and seeing this, Xiaoxiao said, "What’s there to smell? Let’s go."

The two of them carried the child to the Main House and handed her to Yang Old Dad and Yang Ming’s mother.

Yang Ming’s mother was glad when she heard they were going to change clothes and said happily, "Go on, go on, the third daughter-in-law is right. Not only you two, but everyone in the family should freshen up. In this hot weather, let’s all look proper and don’t let others make fun of us."

Xiaoxiao first pulled Yang Qiu to Yang Qiu’s place, and upon entering, said, "Xiaoqiu, find an outfit first, then take it to my place to change."

"Third sister-in-law, what do I have to change at your place? I’ll just wash and change here." Yang Qiu said.

"Are you silly? Guests will arrive soon. You’re a young lady; if you’re seen washing in the yard, it’s not good. Take your clothes to Sister-in-law’s place; no one goes there."

"Okay." Hearing this, Yang Qiu agreed, pulled out an outfit from the cupboard.

Seeing it, Xiaoxiao thought it wasn’t nice, so she opened the cupboard again, scanning it, and found a pale yellow dress that she thought looked good. She took it out, grabbed Yang Qiu, and said, "Wear this one," as they left.
