Chapter 1343: Chapter 1343: Engagement Banquet (Part 2)

This would look really beautiful on.

Unfortunately, since she’s a cat now, she can’t wear such a pretty dress.

“Meow meow…” Mom, you try it.

Jiaojiao turned her head to look at Shu Jiao, pointing at the qipao hanging in the closet, signaling her to quickly give it a try.

Although she couldn’t wear it, her mom still could.

And don’t be fooled, even though her mom is already forty this year, she’s kept in great shape, and God has been exceptionally kind to her in terms of appearance. If she didn’t tell, no one would ever guess she has a son as old as the big brother.

“I think I’ll pass.” Shu Jiao looked at the qipao, actually liking it quite a bit, but considering tomorrow is Shu Wen’s engagement party, as the bride’s sister, she didn’t want to overshadow, which wouldn’t be appropriate.

“Meow meow meow…” No, no, Mom, try it on, try it on.

Jiaojiao tugged at her clothing hem with her little paws, softly acting coquettishly.

Beside her, Shu Wen also persuaded, “Sis, I specially made this for you. Just try it on. And look at this pattern, it’s a mother-daughter outfit I specifically had made for you and Jiaojiao. Don’t you really want to try it on?”

Shu Jiao felt even more tempted by these words. Now seeing Jiaojiao eagerly watching her, clearly hoping she would wear it, she couldn’t bear to let her down, so she nodded, took the dress, and went to the bathroom to change.

“Meow.” Jiaojiao meowed happily.

She turned her head back to her original spot, lay down, and continued sipping from her little bottle, all the while glancing at the bathroom door, longing to see Shu Jiao come out, occasionally casting a glance at the one Shu Wen prepared for her, coveting it terribly.

“Jiaojiao, how about Auntie has one made for you, and you can try it on?” Seeing Jiaojiao frequently look towards the wardrobe, Shu Wen asked with some empathy.

“Meow?” Can I?

Jiaojiao’s little ears twitched, her eyes lit up.

She genuinely loved that little qipao; just looking at it, it seemed so beautiful.

“If you want it, nod your head.”

Jiaojiao eagerly nodded her head, wishing she could nod it right off.

She wants it, wants it!

Seeing her so impatient, Shu Wen chuckled lightly, tapped her little nose, and then went out to make a call.

When she returned, Shu Jiao had already come out of the bathroom.

If Shu Wen wearing a qipao was like a beautiful, enchanting rose, then Shu Jiao was a pure, flawless lily.

Her figure wasn’t as curvaceous as Shu Wen’s, but the intellectual beauty she exuded wasn’t something anyone else could compare to.

Moreover, over the years, having become a mother and living in a place like Xiahe Village, Shu Jiao seldom dressed up. Initially because circumstances were tough, and later due to lack of interest, people forgot she was once the dream woman of many men in Beidu. Just with a bit of dressing up now… the effect was truly stunning.

“Meow.” Mom, hurry out and let Dad take a look.

After coming to her senses, Jiaojiao excitedly pointed outside, meowing.

Seeing Shu Jiao like this, Shu Wen had a more complex and bittersweet feeling compared to Jiaojiao’s pure joy.

Although Ruan Jianguo was indeed great, and he did have such an adorable niece as Ruan Jiaojiao, in the eyes of the Shu family, he had never been deemed worthy of Shu Jiao.

She also wanted Ruan Jianguo to see, but unlike Jiaojiao’s intention, she merely wanted Ruan Jianguo to realize how lucky he was to have married a woman like her sister.
