Su Nanxi thoroughly enjoyed the wedding banquet!

Her quirky actions didn't cause any inconvenience to anyone. On the contrary, being polite is never a bad thing, and it even increased the portion size of the dishes, making everyone very happy!

In a rural village, who wouldn't want to eat a lot of good food when attending a wedding? Ideally, there would be plenty of fish and meat—that would be the real treat!

Some people started cleansing their stomachs the day before yesterday in preparation for this banquet, eating light meals and making their stomachs a little empty so they can eat more then!

It's a rare treat to have such a feast, and with so much delicious food, if we don't eat our fill, we won't get our money's worth!

I can't let myself suffer a loss. Why worry about appearances when I'm eating? I should eat as much as I can!

Because it's just one meal, and one meal can last for several days!

Adhering to the principle of not being at a loss or wasting food, any leftovers can be packed up and taken home so that family members who couldn't make it can also enjoy the taste!

However, at a banquet, there's no need to be polite. If you pretend to be reserved, you'll be letting your stomach down!

The Mo family had booked an extra table, so they didn't have to squeeze in with others and didn't have to worry about the food being snatched up. They could just eat at their usual pace. Isn't the point of a wedding banquet to take it easy? What's the rush?

The Mo family wasn't in a hurry, but the other villagers were, because they weren't all from the same family at the table. If they ate slowly, the food might be snatched up by others!

What could be more important than eating meat? I was enjoying my meal so much that I didn't even chase after my son when he ran away!

The son ran away; he must have gone after his wife. It's alright!

Keep eating!

Let's talk after we finish eating!

They can continue chatting after they finish eating!

Su Nanxi knew a little about this, so when she saw them stop talking and eat with their heads down, she was stunned for a moment, but quickly understood.

There's nothing strange about that. Poor families rarely have a wedding banquet, so it's a rare opportunity to eat as much meat as they want. They have to make the most of it!

The Mo family can eat meat every day, so they aren't that tempted by it. They mainly came to join in the fun and out of curiosity!

I also heard quite a few interesting stories here, so it was all worth it!

Where else can you hear such a complete set of audio recordings?

Most of them were villagers, and they talked enthusiastically, one after another, their voices brimming with passion!

Well, what a fruitful harvest!

This inadvertently brought the villagers and the Mo family a little closer together, after all, they had once gathered together and boasted about their wares!

It was very lively here, but the houses in the village that weren't invited seemed quite deserted.

Neither the Tao family nor the Liang family, who came from elsewhere, were among those invited.

The Liang family were outsiders and had no relation to the host family, so there was no reason for them to be invited.

The Tao family were from the village, so logically, since everyone else had been invited, there was no reason not to invite them. The host family did indeed intend to invite them, but Old Mrs. Chen strongly objected, saying that inviting the three members of the Tao family would be disrespectful to them!

When Tao found out, in order not to put the host family in a difficult position, she took the initiative to speak to them, saying that they were very poor and really could not afford to give a gift, so they could skip the invitation.

The host knew this was just an excuse, and thinking of Granny Chen, he simply went along with Tao and didn't invite them. It would be terrible if these two families, who didn't get along, got together and caused some unpleasantness!

This is a once-in-a-lifetime event, so don't be careless!

He admired Tao's understanding and also disliked Old Mrs. Chen's unreasonable behavior!

They're becoming increasingly unreasonable and going too far!

They even interfere in their own weddings. Bah! What are they? Do they think they're something special?

They've even started interfering in other people's affairs!

They just wanted to make it festive, so they invited everyone in the village to join in the fun. That's their right!

That's really annoying!

So, the Tao family of three went.

This doesn't affect them much; they can go about their business as usual. Even if they don't attend weddings, they still have food to eat!

It's not like we'll miss out on one meal. It's better not to go. If we go, we might cause some trouble, and that would be bad!

They all knew very well what kind of person Old Mrs. Chen was. She hadn't been this outrageous before, but lately she'd been going further and further astray.

I heard that in order to save money, she really made the cruel decision to marry off her eldest granddaughter to an old man who wasn't very bright!

Then he received a rather generous dowry!

After receiving the bride price, he held onto it tightly, ignoring both his daughter-in-law and his eldest granddaughter's dowry.

He was so good to his eldest daughter-in-law, but in the end he didn't get the reward he deserved. When she was injured, his eldest daughter-in-law didn't pay for her medical expenses or call a doctor. She just told him to rest and he would be fine!

That's probably how he came to hate his eldest daughter-in-law, and he used the same ruthlessness he had shown towards Tao on her!

Gradually, she lost trust in her second daughter-in-law, becoming suspicious and always feeling that anyone who approached her had ulterior motives, and she wanted to distance herself from them!

They're really difficult to deal with!

Old Mrs. Chen would definitely not let go of this good opportunity to eat meat. If Tao goes again, it will definitely make Old Mrs. Chen angry and cause trouble, which will make the master very embarrassed!

Their refusal to go is the best solution!

They bought rice, even though it was a mixed grain, but at least they wouldn't starve. They were satisfied as long as it filled their stomachs!

When we go to work in the mountains, we can always find a few bird eggs or something, enough for another meal!

They don't envy others; they just want to live their own lives well!

But surprisingly, some people actually envy them!

That means they're from the Liang family!

The Liang family is living in dire straits right now; they have no rice to cook!

A family has several mouths to feed, and all they want to do is eat. But they don't have a stable food source at all. They eat whatever they can get their hands on, and sometimes when they're unlucky, they have nothing to eat at all!

At first, the villagers would give them some relief and they could eat their fill. But later, for some reason, the villagers stopped giving them relief, and they had nothing to eat!

There was no other way but to send my two daughters up the mountain to find food, whether it was wild fruit or wild vegetables. If they could find wild chicken eggs or bird eggs, that would be even better!

However, the two sisters weren't the only ones going up the mountain. Getting something to eat wasn't easy, especially since they were in an unfamiliar place!

Moreover, the Liang couple don't go out to find anything to do; they just rely on their two daughters!

It's normal to go hungry!

Why don't the two adults go outside?

Men say it's because they're lazy, and women say it's because they're unwell, sick, and unable to do heavy work!

As for the truth, nobody knows!

I guess they've always done it this way!

The two sisters were overjoyed when they finally discovered Chen Ahua's way of making money, thinking they could also earn some, but they were rejected!

That's bad, now there's no way to make money again!

I tried to learn from the Mo family how to catch wild animals, but I caught nothing and ended up with a lot of injuries!

They lived a miserable life, and their three sons were always crying and demanding food!

I can't attend the wedding banquet, but the aroma of egg drop soup wafting from the Tao family's house is making my stomach rumble!

"Why don't we go ask them for some food?"
