"Sister-in-law." Li Hua wiped her tears and looked at Zhou Lian, deeply moved. She hadn't expected Zhou Lian to say something like that. One of her husband's distant female cousins-in-law was her mother-in-law's own niece, so Zhou Lian's words were a blatant message for her new in-laws.
Second Granny Li smiled and gently chided them, "Alright now, no more tears. Today is a happy occasion for the Li family. The girls are blessed to have such a good brother and sister-in-law. Now, go fix Li Hua's makeup. She's cried it all into a mess."
Seeing Li Hua's tear-streaked face, everyone couldn't help but burst out laughing. A bride's makeup was heavy to begin with, and after all her crying and wiping, her face was an absolute mess.
Zhou Lian couldn't stand the sight of Li Hua's face any longer. She said in a rush, "Quick, quick! Get some water to wash her face. We have to do her makeup all over again!"
