Lin Fengjiao grabbed his clothes around his waist, smiling shyly: "Okay, I'll listen to you. You're the head of the family, after all."

Shen Qingshu's smile deepened: "My wife is so good."

The two quickly arrived at the place to complete the formalities. After the staff member received the household registration booklet, he looked up and glanced at it, then looked suspiciously at the name on the document, and then at Shen Qingshu.

"Your name is Shen Qingshu, right? Wutong Street, XXX... This address sounds familiar. Were you here three months ago...?"

Shen Qingshu clearly recognized the other person as well. His heart sank, fearing that the other person would reveal that he had been married and had cancelled his deceased wife's household registration. He quickly interrupted, "Comrade, please hurry up and complete the formalities. We are in a hurry."

A strange look appeared in the staff member's eyes. He looked at the young woman standing next to him and asked seriously, "Young lady, did you marry him willingly?"

"...Yes, of course. Why do you ask?"

"It's nothing, this is our procedure. It's a big deal for marriage, so we naturally need to clarify things. Since you're getting married voluntarily, go take some photos and then come back to me to get it stamped."

Lin Fengjiao nodded and subconsciously looked at the person next to her.

Shen Qingshu took her hand and said in a low voice, "No need, comrade. We took the photos in advance. Here's a group photo, and the size is in accordance with the requirements."

The staff member glanced at him again, thinking to himself that he was indeed experienced in marriage, and that he was well prepared with all the materials and documents. There was really no reason to stop him from getting married.

He quickly signed and stamped the document, then handed it over: "This is your marriage certificate, keep it safe."

"Take care and don't bother seeing me off."

Shen Qingshu took it, looked down at his wife, and said, "Wife, let's go for a walk outside. I'll buy you two new outfits. You should wear nicer clothes now that you're married."

Lin Fengjiao smiled sweetly: "Yes, I'll do whatever you say."

The two walked away affectionately. The staff watched their figures disappear, sighed, and said nothing.

Seeing this, a colleague asked curiously, "What's wrong? Do you know them?"

"I know him, how could I not know him? You forgot that three months ago, this man came to cancel his deceased wife's account? I was the one who handled it back then. I never expected that he would marry another woman now."

"She looks very young. We don't know if she's been scammed. We can't say too much, or we might get into trouble."

"Ah, his wife died three months ago, and he's already getting married. How heartless!"

"Well, that's someone else's business. We can't interfere. There's no rule that explicitly requires you to disclose your marital status. If you talk too much, you'll get into trouble."

My colleague nodded: "That makes sense. Well, let's not say anything then. What if they already know? If you're too talkative, they might come to you when they have problems with their marriage."

"Yes, I know."

Shen Qingshu took the person for a stroll in the park before taking them to a building to buy clothes. When they came out, they were carrying clothes and things he had bought for his parents.

"We'll be going to my parents' house later. It will be your first time meeting your in-laws. Don't worry, my parents are very easy to get along with. My dad is quiet, and my mom is very kind."

"She's very satisfied with you, so your relationship with your mother-in-law will definitely be great."

Lin Fengjiao nodded and said, "I understand. So what should I do when I go over? I don't really know. You can tell me in advance."

Shen Qingshu rolled his eyes and said softly, "It's very simple. My mother's generation all liked hardworking daughters-in-law. The first impression is the most important."

"If you behave well, your parents will definitely like you more in the future. When you come to my house, be more diligent and cook some meals to show your good character, okay?"

"Okay, I know what to do."

"Yes, my wife is so virtuous and sensible. Marrying you is truly the best thing that ever happened to me."

The two arrived at an old building, went to the fourth floor, room 404, and gently knocked on the door: "Mom, open the door, I've brought my wife home to see you."

Zhao Jinhua opened the door and greeted them with a smile: "Oh, you're back! Come in quickly. Your sister and I are picking vegetables. We'll make some delicious food for lunch today."

"This is our daughter-in-law's first visit, so we naturally need to pay more attention to her. Come, let our daughter in and let me take a good look at her."

Lin Fengjiao entered the house and, looking at the smiling people, said somewhat nervously, "Mother... Okay, my name is Lin Fengjiao. You can just call me Fengjiao from now on. These are tonics I bought for you."

"Please accept this small token of my appreciation."

Zhao Jinhua reached out and took it, beaming from ear to ear, looking her up and down: "Oh my, you're so pretty! No wonder Qingshu couldn't stop thinking about you after he returned to the city. You're really beautiful."

"Mother, you flatter me. I'll go cook some dishes, and you can try my cooking."

"Okay, no rush. I haven't given you my gift yet. Here, put your hand out so I can put it on you."

Lin Fengjiao's heart pounded, and a hint of anticipation flashed in her eyes. Soon, she watched as her mother-in-law opened a square box and took out a gleaming gold bracelet.

Zhao Jinhua smiled and said, "I didn't know what size you wear, so I dragged your sister-in-law to choose one. I figured you're not that far apart in age, so the size should be more suitable."

"Hmm, that's great, it fits your wrist perfectly."

She shook it, and the gold bracelet on her wrist was dazzling and eye-catching. She couldn't help but think that this bracelet must cost 1,100 or 1,200 yuan.

She lowered her eyelids to hide the joy in her eyes.

Good heavens, this mother-in-law is so generous! The price of this bracelet is enough to marry off several wives in the countryside. They treat me so well. I will treat my mother-in-law like my own mother from now on.

Lin Fengjiao looked up, her eyes reddening, and said with emotion, "Mother, thank you. I really like this bracelet. You've spent so much money on it."

Zhao Jinhua patted her hand, her face full of sincerity: "It's no trouble at all. I should be thanking you. Our whole family should thank you for accepting our two children calling you 'Mom'."

"It's nothing. I love children too. I will treat them well from now on, just like my own children."

"That's good, that's good."

The younger sister-in-law sat on the balcony, peeling garlic with a blank expression. Watching this harmonious scene, she curled her lip, feeling only irony. Who saw the newlyweds laughing while the long-dead sister-in-law was crying?

Lin Fengjiao went into the kitchen to cook.

Zhao Jinhua came to the balcony, gave her a wink, and lowered her voice, saying, "Yueyao, be careful. Don't always have that deadpan expression. If you ruin your brother's plans, you know the consequences."

"You can't have children, your in-laws don't want you anymore, and you'll have nowhere to go except to go back to your parents' home. Don't offend your older brother, or who will you be able to rely on after we're gone?"

"I know you had a good relationship with the one in front of you, but she died young. You can't blame anyone else for that. You should look ahead and not act out and get caught."

Shen Yueyao hummed in agreement: "I know, I know what I'm doing, I won't ruin things for my brother."
