When Xia Momo heard Song Zhili call her "Second Sister-in-law," she glared at Song Zhili and said, "Don't be like that. Speak properly."

Upon seeing this, Song Zhili smiled and replied again, "I understand, Second Sister-in-law."

Seeing that Song Zhili refused to change her mind, Xia Momo stopped talking and the laughter of the group could be heard from inside the room.

A moment later, a maid ran over and told Song Ziyuan's sedan chair that it had arrived. Song Zhili stepped forward and covered Xia Momo's veil. Then, she and He Miaomiao each supported one of her arms and led her out.

"Mo Mo, your mother-in-law doesn't have much money either. This is a wedding gift I bought for you. I know you don't lack money, so please don't look down on it."

Song Zhili helped Xia Momo to the door. Her mother-in-law came up with a wooden box. When Xia Momo saw the box in her mother-in-law's hand, she felt her eyes well up with tears. She took the box and said, "Grandma, thank you. I like this gift no matter what it is."

When her mother-in-law saw that Xia Momo had accepted the gift, she smiled with relief and, along with Song Zhili and He Miaomiao, saw her off at the door.

After seeing Xia Momo off at the door, her mother-in-law watched her get into the bridal sedan chair. She couldn't help but wipe away her tears, looking at Xia Momo's sedan chair with reluctance.

"Grandma, don't be sad. Momo is here. I'll talk to my second brother tomorrow and ask him to bring you to live with us."

Previously, Song Ziyuan had brought Hu Cuicui and the others to live in the Zhuangyuan Mansion. After she got married, only Xia Momo, He Miaomiao, her mother-in-law, and Song Fang remained in the mansion. Now that Xia Momo has also gotten married, there are fewer people in the mansion.

"No, no need. I'm fine here. Miaomiao is still here, isn't she? I'm just a little reluctant to see Momo get married."

Hearing her mother-in-law say this, Song Zhili didn't know what to say. He Miaomiao and Xia Momo left in the bridal sedan chair first. Song Zhili glanced at her mother-in-law and then said, "Mother-in-law, let's go over there for the feast. Momo doesn't have any relatives. You are her relative. You should go over."

The mother-in-law was initially hesitant to go over, since she wasn't really related to Xia Momo and He Miaomiao. However, after hearing what Song Zhili said, she nodded and went over with Song Zhili in the carriage.

Song Zhili let He Chengjing go first, so their carriage only contained Song Zhili and her mother-in-law. Soon, they arrived at the Zhuangyuan Mansion. When they arrived, the bridal sedan chair had just arrived. Song Zhili jumped down from the carriage. As she turned to help her mother-in-law down, Qing Shuang helped her down from the carriage first.

After Song Zhili got off the carriage, she looked around in the crowd and saw He Chengjing. Then she said to Qing Shuang, "Qing Shuang, you take your mother-in-law inside first. I'll go find A-Jing."

Qing Shuang also saw He Chengjing. Seeing that there should be no danger, she nodded and took her mother-in-law to go over first.

Song Zhili walked around the crowd, went to He Chengjing's side, and patted him on the shoulder. "How was it? Did you get a picture of me?"

He Chengjing turned his head and saw that it was Song Zhili coming over. He handed the phone in his hand to Song Zhili, "I don't know if I took a picture or not, take a look."

He Chengjing still didn't quite understand this. Song Zhili had given him her phone before so that he could take some pictures of Song Ziyuan sitting on horseback.

Song Zhili took the phone and opened the photo album. Although some photos were blurry, fortunately, two were usable.

"It's alright. Let's go in."

Song Zhili heard firecrackers going off at the door. She looked up and saw Xia Momo and Song Ziyuan walking inside.

After the firecrackers had burned out, Song Zhili and He Chengjing entered the mansion. When Song Zhili came in, she saw that they were already holding the wedding ceremony. She also saw He Miaomiao sneakily taking pictures of Xia Momo in the back. She pulled her hand away from He Chengjing's hand.

"I'll take a few pictures too. I'll go keep Momo company for a while. You can do whatever you want. Don't wait for me to eat."

Seeing Song Zhili run away, he shook his head helplessly, glanced at her back with affection, then looked away and walked towards Xiao Yuze.

"when did you come?"

"I just arrived recently, Chengjing. I haven't seen you for the past few days. Getting married really makes a difference!"

Xiao Yuze nudged He Chengjing's shoulder with his own and said jokingly.

"Yes, that's good. You're not getting any younger, it's time to find a woman to settle down with."

Xiao Yuze was quite surprised to hear He Chengjing say such a thing. "I'll think about it later. I'll see if there's a woman I like then."

Hearing Xiao Yuze say this, He Chengjing didn't say anything more. After the wedding ceremony was over, he and Xiao Yuze walked together to the banquet hall.

There were quite a few people here today. Many officials came to curry favor with him. When Song Ziyuan saw He Chengjing, he walked over and led He Chengjing to sit at the main table.

Xiao Yuze was standing with He Chengjing, and thanks to his connection, he also followed He Chengjing to sit down in the main seat.

Song Zhili and He Miaomiao stayed with Xia Momo in the room. Song Zhili and He Miaomiao also posted the photos they had taken to the group chat.

Xia Momo also lowered her head, looking at the photos on her phone, flipping through them one by one.

He Miaomiao moved a chair over and sat opposite Xia Momo, looking at the two of them with envy. They had both found someone they liked, which was wonderful.

"Miaomiao, I asked A-Jing a few days ago, and he said there's no news about Cui Xiaoliu. He was thinking of sending someone to inquire after Momo's wedding, but now there's no news about Cui Xiaoliu or Qingfeng either."

I was thinking that if we still didn't hear anything after a while, I might suggest to A-Jing that we go to Northern Qi together to check on the situation.

Hearing Song Zhili's words, He Miaomiao's heart jumped. She thought about many things, worrying that Cui Xiaoliu might have encountered some danger, or something might have happened to him, or even that he might be dead!

He Miaomiao dared not continue to let her mind wander. She looked up at Song Zhili and said, "Ali, if you are going, could you take me with you? I'm worried about Cui Xiaoliu's safety."

Song Zhili nodded. She told He Miaomiao this because she knew He Miaomiao would worry, so she told her. Anyone with eyes could see that He Miaomiao and Cui Xiaoliu had feelings for each other, but the two of them probably didn't realize it at the moment.

"Oh, so you've all left. What about me? You're not going to leave me here, are you?"

When Xia Momo heard that the two of them were leaving, she felt a pang of sadness and wanted to go with them. For so long, they had done everything together and had hardly ever been apart.

"Where are you going? You just got married. You and my second brother should stay in Beijing and wait for us to come back. We have cell phones now, so we can contact each other anytime."

Song Zhili rolled her eyes at Xia Momo, annoyed, for her meddling.

"Yes, Momo, you shouldn't go. Just stay here. It's not like something bad will definitely happen. It's just that if we can't get in touch, we can go. Maybe we'll believe it in a few days."
