CHAPTER 320: CHAPTER 320: THE ROWDY LITTLE TODDLER

Amidst the tense yet eager anticipation of everyone, the wedding day arrived as scheduled.

Early in the morning, before dawn, everyone got up. The sisters crowded into Xiao Xue’s room, Lin Xia and Lin Yun helped the eldest sister put on the dress, while Xiao Xue applied her bridal makeup herself.

Although she usually doesn’t like wearing makeup, today is different because it’s her wedding. Having seen many friends get married in past lives, she knows how to apply bridal makeup.

Once the makeup was done and the veil was on, she looked stunning beyond words.

Two cousins from mom’s side, two cousins from dad’s side, plus her own four sisters, eight sisters in total chattering away with her, while the brothers couldn’t come in.

Zhang Yuan’s wedding entourage was quite impressive; almost every car from the Capital City was mobilized. All the notable personalities came to attend the wedding, and those with cars joined the wedding entourage.

"Eldest sister, your brother-in-law is here now. Xiao Shan and Little Chuan said they want to carry you out the door!" Lin Yun poked her head in from the doorway, speaking for a while before coming in to inform Xiao Xue.

"Why?" Xiao Xue wasn’t aware of such traditions; her parents hadn’t mentioned it beforehand!

"It seems grandma said it; the bride shouldn’t let her feet touch the ground when leaving the house! Are you ready, eldest sister? Shall I let your brother-in-law in?" Lin Yun said, laughing, but suddenly her eyes turned red, and her nose tingled, prompting her to turn away quickly.

"Alright! Let him in; I’m ready!" Xiao Xue noticed her sister was crying, but she couldn’t seem to cry herself. She’s marrying someone close by and will be back in a few minutes, why cry?

If they hadn’t all moved to the Capital City, she’d certainly cry if she was marrying far away by herself. Over the past three to four years, she’s formed a deep bond with her family.

Lin Yun heard her sister say she could let people in and slowly opened the door.

Zhang Yuan walked in and was stunned. It was his first time seeing his wife-to-be with such makeup, and she constantly surprised him.

"Brother-in-law, what are you dazing for? Does my eldest sister’s beauty make you incapable of reacting?" Lin Xia joked.

"Indeed! Your eldest sister is the most beautiful girl in the world!" Zhang Yuan replied to Lin Xia while his eyes were fixed on Xiao Xue.

"Brother-in-law, can’t you not take my eldest sister away? I’ll give you all my candies! And cookies, pastries, meat, is that okay? Just give my eldest sister back to me!"

In the midst of everyone’s joyful atmosphere, a milky voice arose.

Three-year-old Little Lin Cai had been unhappy, as everyone was busy with the wedding and temporarily neglected her. Only now did they realize this noisy little girl was too quiet.

The sisters who were laughing earlier started sniffling and had tears welling in their eyes upon hearing the youngest sister speak.

Zhang Yuan was momentarily speechless. Looking at the small child, he found he couldn’t communicate with her. He looked to Xiao Xue for help.

Xiao Xue couldn’t help it at this point; suddenly, tears just came unexpectedly.

Seeing the big sister also crying, Little Lin Cai felt her eldest sister was being bullied. She began crying, ran forward, tugging at her eldest sister’s dress while pointing angrily at the other sisters, "You’re all bad people, why let her go? You can’t let her leave! I don’t want her to leave! Little brother... little brother..."

The milky voice accused the sisters of letting the eldest sister leave while loudly calling for little brother, implying Lin Feng.

The two always played together, mainly because no one else wanted to humor the little girl. Every day it was just them playing together, so naturally when in need, she called for her little brother.

"Alright, Little Cai, sister will be back to see you soon! How about it?" Xiao Xue squatted down to wipe her sister’s tears.

Lin Yun made her a small pink cotton-padded jacket dress, with colorful butterfly embroidery on it – incredibly cute.

Her hair was styled into two horn braids, with chubby cheeks.

The adorably cute little girl was making fierce and comical expressions that made others feel helpless.

"No, Little Cai won’t let sister leave! Little Cai doesn’t want sister to leave!" Little Lin Cai adamantly refused to let go at this moment.

"Little Cai, brother-in-law got you a doll, wouldn’t you go get it?" Zhang Yuan tried speaking awkwardly to coax her.

"Brother-in-law is also a bad guy; I don’t want a brother-in-law, don’t want dolls, you all go away... woo woo woo woo..." she finally let out a loud cry.

This left everyone speechless; usually, when this sister made a fuss, only the eldest sister could soothe her well and also... grandma! Right, grandma! Quickly find grandma!

Lin Xia suddenly thought this little sister could only be subdued by the eldest sister and grandma. Now it seemed the eldest sister couldn’t handle her, so she ran outside.

Soon, Bai Xianglan came over; they were all waiting outside Xiao Xue’s room to send her off. As Lin Xia went out and explained the situation, people outside laughed heartily.

Only Wang Cuihua’s eyes turned red.

She’d been holding it in for several days, keeping herself busy on purpose, but today, she couldn’t hold it anymore. She had secretly cried several times, but hearing her youngest daughter making a fuss about not letting her sister go, she couldn’t hold back anymore, her voice breaking, wailing.

"Sister-in-law, Xiao Xue’s married so close by; you can see her daily! Stop crying, it’s a happy day!" Wu Zhaodi softly spoke to calm her.

But Wang Cuihua couldn’t hold back anymore; she couldn’t stop herself and cried in Wu Zhaodi’s arms.

Lin Daliang wasn’t much better. Although he didn’t cry loudly like his wife, his tears wouldn’t stop.

Wang Yongsheng and Bai Dajiang each patted his shoulder.

The men exchanged a glance and handshake, unlike the women who comfort with heartfelt words.

Lin Daliang nodded slightly, lowered his head, wiped his tears, and stood by his daughter’s room door.

Bai Xianglan entered, firmly picked up Little Lin Cai, the auspicious time couldn’t be delayed, so she took her out to comfort her later.

Lin Shan and Lin Chuan entered, with Lin Shan carrying his sister and Lin Chuan supporting, while Lin Xia and Lin Yun helped carry the dress as they walked out.

Since the wedding dress was red, the veil was also red. Once Xiao Xue covered her face with the veil, it was hard to see clearly even if she cried a flood inside.

Zhang Yuan stood beside them. Once the brothers placed the sister in the car, he helped close the car door, turned around, knelt before Lin Daliang and his wife, kowtowed thrice, and then returned to the car.

The sending entourage also got into the cars; having never sat in such luxurious cars before, everyone couldn’t get enough of seeing them.

Everyone sat in cars following the bridal car, forming a long line.

"This is so grand! Xiao Xue is really fortunate; I mean, the girls from our village marrying with an ox cart is considered good, look at this procession, it feels like she’s a princess..." Feng Minghua started chattering right after getting in.

"Shut up! Just babbling, be careful I leave you on the road!" She hadn’t finished when Wang Junsheng interrupted and harshly reprimanded her.

As a princess, can such things be said?
