In the evening, everyone made something simple, and some brought back things from town. After dinner, everyone went back to rest, and started working again the next day.

When getting married in the village, everyone has to help out, so the next day the neighbors saw them busy and came over to help.

Helping with running around and cleaning.

Since we are getting married, of course we clean the house inside and out. We also clean places that we don’t usually think of, or places where dirt and grime easily hide.

Just like the Chinese New Year, we did a big cleaning, cleaning the house inside and out, and then started to tidy up the yard. After all, the wedding would be held in the yard.

Their yard was previously paved with bricks and cement, which they washed several times with water until it was spotless.

The only room left for putting the things in the yard is my room, or putting them in the utility room, leaving the yard empty.

Several of Grandpa Xia's brothers also came to help. With more people around, the work went faster, and within a few hours, the yard was cleaned spotlessly.

Then she started decorating, which made her feel very relaxed. While helping out, she accompanied Chen Xin around everywhere.

After all, she had never been to their place before, so the next morning after getting up and having breakfast, she started clamoring to go out, so Xia Jin had no choice but to accompany her to play for a while.

Anyway, the two of them are of little use here. With so many people here, they would only cause more trouble if they got together.

Gu Jingmo listened to Chen Xin's few words and coaxed his wife away. He was very angry and thought that this man would make his wife see her less often in the future.

Gu's father and his family stayed in the town. After all, there were too many people and they couldn't accommodate everyone if they all came back together, so the whole family stayed in the town.

They planned to wait until the wedding day to come over. Originally, the two of them wanted to come together to help, but Grandpa Xia didn't want them to. They said that there were many people in the village and things could be done without them.

Just let them rest in town, there is no need for them to get involved in such small tasks.

It's like this in their village. Whenever there's a wedding or funeral in someone's house, everyone goes together to help. If you don't go to help when someone else is doing something, then they definitely won't go when you do something.

Is there a give-and-take relationship? Usually when the village does these things, Grandpa Xia and his family are very active in helping, so when it is their family's turn, everyone is also willing to help them.

Even if the original people in the village did not come, there were already many people from the same clan who were closely related by blood. As long as they came to help, the work would be done quickly.

Not to mention, because they were doing business, everyone in the village could ask them for help and they couldn't be driven away. There was only so much work to do, so it was done quickly.

After finishing the work, Father Xia took Xia Jin and others to the town to go shopping in the afternoon.

It was the first time Chen Xin came with me and he was curious about everything. Although they had just returned from town, he had no intention of seeing anything, so I wanted to go with him.

So the two of them followed, Father Xia went with them, and the others stayed at home.

Gu Jingmo looked at his wife being affectionate with Chen Xin, and he couldn't help feeling jealous, because with him around, he hadn't been alone with his wife all day.

It seemed as if Xia Jin was not his wife but his. The two of them were inseparable all day long, and he had no chance to be alone.

However, Xia Jin learned his lesson this time. No matter what Chen Xin did, he just refused to watch the show. As long as he didn't see it, he would pretend not to know.

I just muddled through it, but when I looked over and saw him looking at me with that aggrieved expression, I had to think of ways to compensate him.

The two of them stumbled up and down. All they could say was that this time they really came to sell some dried fruits like melon seeds and peanuts to entertain guests.

There are also some kitchen supplies for cooking, and there is plenty of rice and flour. Move some of it back. When more people come to eat, at least there will be enough food.

There are also various seasonings, so you should prepare plenty of them. Otherwise, you won’t run out of seasonings halfway through the dish. That would be a joke.

To cook, they went straight to the butcher shop in town and asked them to set aside some meat that day and have it delivered to them early. In the hot summer, meat tastes better when bought and cooked fresh.

If you buy it now as soon as you find it, it will definitely be smelly by the time the time comes.

If the strong smell was discovered, and if it wasn't discovered, and the meal was prepared and everyone ate it, and his family got sick from eating it, then it would be a really serious matter.

No one wants to go through the trouble on a good day, so it’s better to have fresh food. Even if you ask them to deliver it and you can’t pick out good meat, it’s better than getting sick from eating it.

The dishes for their wedding have also been ordered, so Xia's father and the others have already discussed what to buy.

There really wasn't much to buy, so I filled up the entire cart and bought two bags of flour alone.

In fact, we have wheat at home, but it takes time to grind it. It is more convenient to buy it directly. When we finish eating, we can use the wheat at home.

I bought all kinds of things, and melon seeds were definitely the biggest expense. After all, I was just going to take a look, so I had to grab a handful.

When the ceremony is going on, people down below get bored and just chat, drink tea, and eat sunflower seeds, right? So you have to prepare a lot of these things.

The East-West Asian Museum naturally had to make this wedding beautiful and couldn't wait until people finished eating and went back to gossip about their family behind their backs.

They are not the kind of shameless family. If you don't do it well, people will definitely complain when they go back, saying that so-and-so's family held a wedding that was so stingy.

It would definitely be bad if this got out, as there are still two unmarried people in the family.

Otherwise, we can't make up for this little money, so we must prepare a lot, even the dishes, we try to fill each plate so that they can eat their fill.

Even if I attend banquets a few more times, I will be able to think of the banquets I hosted at home when I think of them.

If you ask whose company is better to do it, then say your own. Don't give others the impression that you are stingy, otherwise they will scold you.

After everything was ready, they drove the ox cart back to the village, with a full cart.

After bringing them home, I put them in the kitchen first, and then collected the remaining melon seeds and other things and put them aside, waiting to use them on the wedding day.

The next day they immediately started notifying various relatives, asking them to set aside time early and not wait until the day itself to notify them.

In this case, what if they are busy with something? It is better to notify them early so that they can take some time off.
