Chapter 434: I Am Your Protective Charm

On the way back, Li Zhaodi criticized Mu Jingzhe for not being respectful around the fortune-teller and said that her a.n.a.lysis was right.

Seeing that she trusted the fortune-teller so much, Mu Jingzhe didnt argue with her. When she returned, she even complained to Ji Buw.a.n.g about it. In the end, Ji Buw.a.n.g actually asked, Did you buy some auspicious luck charm then?

Mu Jingzhe: Why do you believe in this too? Ive never seen you believe in it before.

I dont exactly believe in it. But since this is related to you, I think itd be good to buy some. Ji Buw.a.n.g shook his head.

Mu Jingzhe laughed when she heard that. I know what you mean, but my mother asked and the fortune-teller said that she didnt have any charms.

Then Ill be by your side more often in the future, Ji Buw.a.n.g immediately said. Ill be your protective charm.

Haha, alright. Youre my protective charm then.

Mu Jingzhe felt that this was probably the benefit of dating. Her heart was always br.i.m.m.i.n.g with sweetness, and he would always say such sweet words.

The parents meeting went very smoothly, mainly because it wasnt their first meeting. Old Master Ji arrived very quickly. The only problem with this meeting was the dispute about the betrothal gift and the dowry.

It wasnt like one side wanted more, and the other side didnt want to give it. On the contrary, the argument started because Old Master Ji wanted to give too much.

It wasnt easy for Old Master Ji to finally see his thirty-something-year-old grandson getting married. It truly hadnt been easy. In addition, Ji Buw.a.n.g had a face blindness problem. If he missed this opportunity, he might perhaps remain single forever.

Now that they were finally getting married, he was over the moon. Before they even got married, he had already offered an exorbitant betrothal gift, including the one million yuan that Xiao Wu had casually mentioned and other miscellaneous things.

Although the more betrothal gifts there were, the better, Li Zhaodi and Mu Teng couldnt afford to give them so much, so they asked them to take less. This way, they could give a dowry of more or less the same value.

Who would have thought that Li Zhaodi would one day refuse such benefits? However, she did refuse. Even though her heart ached so much that she almost couldnt breathe. Even though she really wanted to accept it all without a care so that Jingzhe could take it all and live a good life.

However, she held herself back in the end. She told herself that she was no longer the Li Zhaodi of the past. She had to have foresight. She couldnt just be greedy and take whatever was in front of her. She couldnt let the in-laws look down on her. She couldnt let their relatives and friends despise Jingzhe either.

Her daughter, Jingzhe, was so outstanding now that no one in the world could compare to her. However, Ji Buw.a.n.g was also very outstanding, and it was said that many girls liked him. There were also many girls from families of similar backgrounds to his who wanted to marry him but had been rejected. These people were all waiting for Ji Buw.a.n.g.

Jingzhe was wonderful, but they were dragging her down. They didnt want to be looked down upon, so they had to have a backbone. Therefore, they wouldnt accept so many betrothal gifts to avoid being criticized. However, they would match the standards of the dowry to those of the betrothal gifts to the best of their ability.

This way, they would have a clear conscience and those people wouldnt be able to belittle Jingzhe.

Hence, a strange scene happened at the meeting between the in-laws-to-be. The mans side desperately wanted to give more betrothal gifts, while the womans side desperately refused. This was completely different from other cases, as it was usually the womans side that requested gifts and the mans side that refused with gritted teeth.

It wasnt easy for the betrothal gifts to be finalized, and they started arguing over the dowry again. This was because the brides side looked like it wanted to be the one giving everything. They offered to give the dowry so that the groom didnt have to prepare anything, so they started arguing again.

However, the younger brother didnt have any objections to their familys att.i.tude. He was even more excited than anyone else.

Indeed, Mu Han didnt have any objections. The only reason his family was in such a state today was his older sister, Jingzhe. If Mu Jingzhe hadnt disagreed, he would have given even more.

It was already absurd enough that both parties were acting like this. In the end, what was even more absurd was that when the five children joined in, all of them wanted to give their mother the best they could offer.

Mu Jingzhe watched from the side. Other than feeling helplessness, she also felt endless bliss. She hadnt expected that she would one day have so many family members and feel so much happiness.

When she had first transmigrated there, she had never imagined this would happen one day. She also didnt know why she had transmigrated herself. Yet now, she felt that she had found the meaning of transmigratingit was meant to help her find happiness.

In her previous life, she had never fallen in love or gotten married. In this life, she had been married right from the start, and then she had found Prince Charming Ji Buw.a.n.g.

In her previous life, she had no family. In this life, she had the best family ever.

I feel like this is all a dream, Mu Jingzhe muttered softly. Its too blissful.

Your life will remain like this in the future. Every single day. Ji Buw.a.n.g was also very glad.

The parents of both parties met for a day and argued nonstop. Finally, everything was confirmed. Then, both parties started making preparations.

It would take a lot of time and energy to seriously prepare for such a wedding. When Li Zhaodi started preparing, she was glad that they were getting married after the New Year. Otherwise, she might not be able to finish everything.

While they were busy, Ji Buw.a.n.g was also busy. On the other hand, Mu Jingzhe had a little free time. After all, she didnt have to embroider her own wedding dress or anything like that.

Speaking of that, Mu Jingzhe was inspired. She could totally design her own wedding clothes.

In the past, she had designed a lot of formalwear, but she had never dabbled in wedding dresses. Now that wedding dresses were trending, she could totally design one herself and wear it.

She could also make a traditional wedding dress. If she made it herself, wouldnt she look beautiful in it?

She got to work immediately. Mu Jingzhe started designing the bride and groom outfits, and even the traditional wedding dress. After designing the outfits for the bride and groom, she wondered if she should design something for Li Zhaodi, Mu Teng, and Old Master Ji as well.

She did the same for the five kids. Little Bei liked the wedding designs that she had drawn with so much inspiration. After asking about the wedding process, she even wanted to be a flower girl and have Shao Nan be the page boy so they could scatter petals for her mommy, not caring whether she was too old for the job or not.

Therefore, Mu Jingzhe also started to get busy. She took the measurements and prepared to make the clothes. Old Master Jis measurements were sent over by someone. He beamed happily and said that it was the greatest blessing to be able to wear clothes made by his granddaughter-in-law.

Li Zhaodi, Mu Teng, and Mu Han were also happy. Only Li Zhaodi was troubled as she looked at her flabby stomach. My stomach is too flabby. I wont look nice in this outfit, will I? Why dont I eat less from now on?

Li Zhaodi even wanted to lose weight for the gown. Mu Jingzhe shook her head. No need, Mom. Didnt you say that you feared hunger the most in the past? Just leave it to me. I guarantee that youll look good in it. You have to believe in your daughter!

There was no such thing as an ugly figure in this world. There were only incompetent designers. If a person didnt look good in customized clothing, the problem was the designers poor abilities.

While Li Zhaodi and the rest were waiting happily, Mu Jingzhe finished making the clothes one after another. Mu Han was fine. Although he looked even taller in his clothes, he was still quite calm.

Li Zhaodi and Mu Teng were thrilled. Previously, they had also worn many clothes that Mu Jingzhe had bought and made, but those had been mainly comfortable clothes, not this kind of formalwear.
