Before long, the bridal suite was empty except for several women and a handful of young boys and girls who had followed the adults to participate in the fun and joyous occasion. The adults talked freely in their presence, as the children were too young to understand their conversation.
Wang Jiao, who had never been one for modesty, tore the corners of the joyous wedding quilt to pull out several red dates and dyed red peanuts and walnuts.
The four items symbolizing a wish for the couple to have children soon - red dates, peanuts, longans, and lotus seeds - were in short supply. Consequently, they could only sew some peanuts and dates inside the wedding quilt to make do.
Everyone in the room burst into laughter upon seeing Wang Jiao's actions.
"Fengqin, look at your Jiaojiao, we all forgot about the peanuts and dates in the quilt but she didn't."
