Before leaving, I glanced at the Dumpling in Qing Li’s arms.

Dumpling was sitting obediently on Qing Li’s lap, looking like he was saying, "Mom and Dad, you can go prepare the wedding with peace of mind, Dumpling will be good."

Seeing Dumpling being so sensible, I didn’t know whether to be happy or worried.

I wrapped my arm around Yu Longting’s arm, leaving the restaurant with him, "Yu Longting, I have a feeling."

"Oh?" Yu Longting opened the car door, ready to drive me to buy wedding clothes.

I sat in the passenger seat, looking up at him, "It’s like our relationship is recognized, and the whole world is blessing us."

"Your feeling is correct, it is like that." Yu Longting leaned down and left a kiss on my forehead.

Then went to the driver’s seat and drove off.

We were busy in the morning getting the marriage certificate, and in the afternoon busy buying wedding clothes.

When we returned, the entire Chen’s Restaurant had completely changed, decorated like it was New Year.

Many people from the town passed by and stopped for several minutes.

Even my apprentice Chen Ahmao heard the news and asked if he could attend the wedding.

I just explained it wasn’t a wedding, just some arrangements after getting the marriage certificate.

Qing Li doesn’t like strangers, so she avoids unfamiliar people.

Aside from Xiao Li, even Chen Decheng and his wife temporarily left, making space for us to get married.

Not to mention this kid Chen Ahmao.

However, I’ve always felt guilty towards this kid, took him as an apprentice but taught him nothing.

I should find an opportunity to treat Ahmao well.

Late at night, the restaurant hall was set up as a wedding venue.

Red candles flickered on the table, and the room was decorated with festive characters and ribbons.

Xiao Li, dressed in a red cheongsam, acted properly as the host, "Let’s welcome the newlyweds."

I thought there would be some ceremony like bowing to heaven and earth, and felt quite nervous.

Suddenly, Xiao Li bowed her head to listen to Qing Li, then spoke earnestly, "Please let the newlyweds serve tea to the elders."

Obviously, it was prearranged, Little Dumpling jumped out of Qing Li’s arms.

The little chubby hands diligently poured tea on the low table, offering a cup seriously to me and Yu Longting.

"Thank you, Dumpling," I said with a smile.

Yu Longting only said one word, "Thanks."

Beichen brought out two cushions from the inner room and placed them in front of Yu Longting and me.

Without any need to be reminded, I naturally knelt down.

Yu Longting held the same red silk ribbon tied with a large red flower with me, so he could only kneel down with me.

Hmm, this might be Yu Longting’s first time kneeling to his birth mother.

The laziness and recklessness on his face were collected to the extreme, and his whole person felt like a dark, harsh iceberg.

Making people feel cold and extremely hard to see through.

I sensed his mood was not very good, but couldn’t figure out why.

I handed the tea cup over with both hands, "Mother-in-law, have some tea."

"What should you call?" Qing Li’s voice was low and cool.

I dumbly raised my head, "Mother-in-law... huh?"

"Hmm?" Qing Li’s dissatisfaction left me in endless confusion.

If I’m not supposed to call her mother-in-law, what should I call her??

Holding up the cup for a long time, my arm was sore.

Yu Longting couldn’t bear it, he had already placed his tea cup on the ground, to take mine.

I suddenly had a flash of insight and cautiously tried, "Mom?"

Could it be that she actually wanted me to call her mom?

This...

Is it possible?

Although daughters-in-law do call their mothers-in-law mom, would Qing Li allow me to be so bold?

"Hmm." Qing Li finally responded to me.

My tense nerves slowly relaxed, my whole body covered in cold sweat, "Mom, have some tea."

"Is that all you understand? Kneeling and serving tea, shouldn’t you change your way of addressing me henceforth?" Qing Li took the tea cup.

She stirred the tea lid, took a sip, and handed the cup back to me.

Yu Longting also offered his tea cup, "Mom, have some tea."

"You don’t need to."
