My College Teacher is My Children's Mom-Chapter 796: All Hands on Deck!
"Dad, I’ll talk to Cai Xia about the wedding arrangements."
"Hmm, you know her best. What girl doesn’t dream of having her own unique wedding?"
"You’re right, Dad. I was negligent."
Hearing his son say this, Lin Feng felt a twinge of guilt. His eldest son had probably overlooked it simply because he was too busy.
"These next few days, you should find some time to talk to Cai Xia."
"You need to tell me which of your friends you’re planning to invite..."
After giving these instructions, Lin Feng’s tone softened with concern. "Alright, that’s enough from me. You should get some rest."
"The big family needs you, but so does your little family. You understand?"
After hanging up, he turned to find Zhang Yuxi awake.
"Did I wake you?"
"What do you think?" she retorted.
Why did this old couple have to speak so sharply to each other?
Sure enough, Zhang Yuxi began to chide her husband for being so harsh on their eldest son.
"Our son is still awake at this hour, and when you video call him, instead of showing some concern, you start chewing him out? Don’t you feel bad for him?"
Lin Feng sighed. "I had no choice. I sent him so many messages and called him so many times, but he didn’t answer a single one."
Zhang Yuxi’s anger subsided. "The boy is just busy. Try to be more understanding."
"You know our eldest son. If he had the time, he definitely wouldn’t be absent."
The next afternoon, their eldest son sent over a document that included a call log. The document detailed his conversation with Cai Xia, noting her preferences for themes, colors, and so on. Now that they had a general direction, they wouldn’t have to plan the wedding venue so blindly.
Suddenly, Lin Feng thought of something. "What about the wedding dress..."
Zhang Yuxi reminded him, "Don’t worry about the dress. Our second daughter said she’ll design it. There are still a few months left, so there’s plenty of time."
Lin Feng called his second daughter.
She was still asleep on the other end. "Dad, I’ve already started making arrangements for the wedding dress. I sent the design samples to my sister-in-law. As soon as she chooses one, I’ll get to work on it."
Lin Feng didn’t want to disturb his daughter’s rest. "Alright, you get back to sleep. I won’t keep you."
The eldest son’s wedding was now the family’s top priority. Lin Feng stopped driving his taxi to focus on the matter. Even with a wedding planning team, they couldn’t just sit back and do nothing. There were plates to select, bouquets to choose, and wine glasses to pick out...
Lin Feng couldn’t help but sigh. Ah, times have changed.
Lin Feng didn’t feel comfortable making these decisions, so he delegated them to his children. His reasoning was solid: "Your big brother is getting married. You can’t just do nothing, can you?"
With their second daughter having already claimed the wedding dress, the others were each assigned their tasks and sent off to get busy.
The group chat was quiet for a moment, then their second daughter spoke up again.
"I’ve been married, so I have experience. I’ll go talk to the wedding planner tomorrow, and then I’ll assign the tasks. Please reply to confirm."
Third Sibling: Received.
Fourth Sibling: Received.
Xuan Jiayi: Received.
Cai Xia: Received.
Shao Yang: Received.
Eldest Sibling: Received.
Youngest Sibling: Received.
In the blink of an eye, their second daughter kicked their eldest brother and Cai Xia out of the group, only to immediately pull them into a different, smaller group.
Everyone was speechless.
Well played.
Second Treasure: Dad, just leave this to us young people. We have everything under control. All you need to do is provide the funding.
Lin Feng didn’t feel comforted in the slightest. In fact, he inexplicably wanted to hit someone. Now that the children were grown up, their ability to frustrate him had also grown substantially. It was a good thing his own outlook was a positive one.
Lin Feng: Alright, I’ll leave it to you all then. But you have to report back to me so I can stay in the loop.
The next afternoon, Lin Feng received an email from the wedding planner. It was filled with various suggestions and entertainment ideas, like jet ski races and making their eldest brother solve puzzles, with the condition that he could only get married if he answered correctly. In short, while the plans were lively, they also gave Lin Feng a headache.
He called his second daughter. "Have you discussed these proposals with your big brother?"
Second Treasure answered energetically, "Nope! But we’re planning to give them an unforgettable wedding! HAHAHAHA!"
He was silent for a moment. "Second Treasure, it’s a good thing you married early."
Second Treasure was completely unfazed. "Whatever. I’ve never been afraid of anything."
That evening, Lin Feng showed the email to Zhang Yuxi, carefully watching her expression.
Zhang Yuxi pursed her lips, then said after a moment of silence, "Young people these days really know how to have fun. But you don’t need to worry. The siblings are all very close. Even if their pranks go a bit too far, there won’t be any hard feelings."
Lin Feng said worriedly, "I don’t care how our family messes around, but what if Cai Xia isn’t happy with it?"
Zhang Yuxi thought for a moment before asking, "How would you know what young people are thinking? Let Second Treasure talk to her. Your big brother is too busy, it’s not appropriate for you, as the father-in-law, to get involved, and I don’t have time."
This kind of thing should have been handled by the groom’s parents. However, due to their eldest son’s situation and the children "volunteering" to take over, the two of them were suddenly relieved of the burden.
This was proof of Second Treasure’s efficiency. Within a week, she had already finalized the designs for the dinner plates, wine glasses, and all the other tableware.
Next up were the carpets, flowers, and decorations. The layout and design were handed over to Third Treasure, who would follow Cai Xia’s requests. They would also be in charge of the live music, as well as the attire for the bridesmaids and groomsmen.
Those chosen as bridesmaids and groomsmen were warned to maintain their figures over the next few months, as Third Treasure wouldn’t have time to fly all the way over just to take new measurements.
Fourth Treasure was the designated errand boy, entrusted with all the legwork since he had the most free time.
Xuan Jiayi also had a job. She was put in charge of the custom stationery and small favor bags designed by Second Treasure. It was all minor work she could do from home.
Shao Yang was also assigned his mission: to borrow the princess tiara for the bride’s head and the gemstone necklace she would wear.
That’s right, *borrow*. The pieces were part of a private collector’s holdings. Second Treasure was particularly fond of them but had never seen them in person. She saw this as an opportunity to finally witness them firsthand.
「In a flash, the school’s final exams were just around the corner.」
Little Treasure had skipped a grade into middle school, and Lin Feng had worried she wouldn’t be able to keep up. In truth, his concern was entirely unnecessary.
She was excelling academically. With tutoring and help from her older siblings on difficult homework, she had ranked third in her grade on the midterm exams. This was the same middle school her older siblings had attended. Some of their former teachers had retired, but others were still teaching there.
Little Treasure was something of a celebrity. Her every move at school was discussed online, with all sorts of rumors circulating.
Later on, when someone started spreading lies, her older siblings refused to indulge them and took legal action. This wasn’t the first instance. From then on, her siblings made sure that anyone who dared to write nonsense or spread rumors would not get away with it.
Gradually, no one dared to dig for news about Little Treasure, afraid of provoking her fierce guardians.
In any case, everyone knew Little Treasure was doing very well in her studies and left her alone to focus on them.
