Xia Ruzheng couldn't help but roll his eyes. Every aunt or uncle in the family has a nephew or niece. They always say this when they want to introduce someone to a date, but it's usually not that reliable. Besides, Xia Ruzheng himself didn't even know what kind of person Xia Ruqian's mother-in-law was, let alone a nephew.
Xia Ruzheng gently pushed Xia Ruqian and said, "Alright, your wedding is the most important thing right now. Don't think about these trivial things. I'm only 22 years old, how can I be considered an old maid?"
Ever since he dealt with the great scourge Huang Zhong, Xia Ruzheng no longer felt that time was so urgent.
Xia Ruqian couldn't persuade her sister, so she could only keep the matter aside.
Xia Ruqian's wedding was definitely lively and eventful, and it was in no way comparable to the frivolous wedding of Huang Zhong and Xu Xianhua.
Everyone outside is talking about it. Now Xia Chunfu, the richest man in the area, is going to marry his daughter off. Everyone is waiting to see the excitement and the grand ceremony!
Xia Chunfu didn't disappoint. On the day of the Xia family's wedding banquet, thirty tables were set up at noon. Don't think thirty tables is too few. In the countryside, an average family only has a dozen or so. If you set up too many, you won't be able to manage the staff, and you'll need a lot of people to prepare the food and drinks. And you can't invite so many guests without great prestige.
Even when drinking in the countryside, one has to consider face. If I don't have good relations with your family, I won't go. Xia Chunfu can be said to be highly respected. People nearby have benefited from his kindness, so naturally they all want to join in the fun. What's more, everyone is looking forward to the dishes at the banquet!
The day before was the wedding of the daughter, and the day after was the wedding of the daughter-in-law. In order to save some face for the Liu family, Xia Chunfu discussed with the Liu family before setting up thirty tables.
Xia Ruqian was the bride herself and was too busy with her own affairs to handle, let alone the banquet. Fortunately, Wen Zhichao brought people with him.
"Uncle Chunfu, these are my trusted brothers. Come and help you."
At this time, let alone hosting a wedding banquet in a hotel, there is not even a professional team to host a wedding banquet. People are needed for everything from preparing dishes and chopsticks to welcoming guests. The father and daughter of the Xia family are really too busy to handle it. If they invite others, they have to see whether they are reliable and efficient.
Xia Chunfu looked at the sturdy young men behind Wen Zhichao and immediately became happy. He said, "Alright! I think they're good! I trust the people Chaochao brought with him! After today's work, I'll give each of you five yuan!"
Now during the double harvest season, helping out in other people's homes only earns one or two yuan a day, but I didn't expect Xia Chunfu to pay five yuan at once. This is not as tiring and busy as the double harvest season!
A young man with a round head and round face behind said, "Let's follow Brother Wen and call you uncle, Uncle Chunfu. I think we should not do that. We brothers have agreed that we are here for free today. We are just here to have a meal and share in the good fortune. I hope to be like today's groom and marry a good wife like your daughter!"
The man spoke so eloquently that even though Xia Chunfu had seen many storms, he was completely subdued by his words.
"You are a very well-behaved young man, but as your uncle, I cannot do that. You guys should work first, and I will definitely treat you well in the evening!"
The young men exclaimed in unison, which was quite impressive, and then quickly dispersed to get back to work.
In fact, these things should have been helped by Xia Chunfu's brothers, but their relationship was not very good, and Xia Chunfu was not very willing to let them come to help. It was enough for them to come and have a meal to send Xia Ruqian off.
The young men were efficient and quickly found various tasks to do. They arranged the borrowed tables and chairs one by one, wiped them clean, washed the borrowed dishes and put them on the table, and put a bottle of wine on each table. They also needed people to cook, at least three or four strong young men to wash, cut, cook, plate and put in the steamer.
Xia Ruzheng had counted the candies and firecrackers to be distributed inside. When he came out and saw so many people working, he thought they were hired by Xia Chunfu. Only when he saw Wen Zhichao's conspicuous white hair did he understand.
Wen Zhichao took a break from his busy schedule to talk to Xia Ruzheng: "Thank you so much for coming today. My dad even hired someone, but it seems they won't be needed now."
Even if I hired someone, they wouldn't be so dedicated.
Wen Zhichao wiped his hands and said, "No need to thank me so much. I'm not busy lately anyway, so it's good to come out and do some work. Just have a few more drinks later."
Xia Ruzheng smiled and said, "When I have some free time, I'll make another meal for you."
Wen Zhichao couldn't help but burst into laughter, "That's right, I'm sure all the brothers will like your craftsmanship."
Xia Ruzheng thought Wen Zhichao looked quite good when he smiled, so he smiled too.
People who saw the two talking elsewhere couldn't help but whisper to each other: "Xiao Chao rarely smiles, but I didn't expect that he smiled at a girl today."
"That's right, but I think that girl is pretty good. Could she be the bride? Could it be..."
Well, this brother started to imagine the bloody drama in the 8 o'clock prime time. The beloved girl is getting married, but Wen Zhichao dare not express his feelings because of his inferiority complex about his appearance, and can only watch her get married. Now he sees that his beloved's family is in a mess, and he specially asks his brothers to help.
"Stop talking nonsense! Is Brother Chao such an ignorant person? Aren't there two sisters in this family? Maybe this is the unmarried one!"
Everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief: "That's good, Chao brothers should seize the opportunity."
It's rare for a Super Brother with eyes on top of his head to take a fancy to a girl! Everyone decided to find an opportunity to help.
After nine o'clock, guests began to arrive one after another.
In fact, everyone is looking forward to today's banquet. After all, the Xia sisters are very rare girls in the neighborhood, and rumors have been plaguing the two sisters recently.
