Just before the goal was achieved, I suddenly came to my senses; reason returned.
"Here you go, but be careful with the wedding candies. Three per person, no more."
Grandma Zhu spoke the first sentence loudly, but then whispered the last two sentences into Xu Fang's ear.
A pungent, sour smell hit her, and Xu Fang stepped back.
Grandma Zhu wanted to say something more, but she held back out of consideration for her reputation. She thought to herself that she must teach him properly in the future, as it was a fine tradition of the Zhu family.

"Fangfang, let me hand out the wedding candies. You can't do this kind of rough work."
He was also distressed about the gifts, but since they weren't officially married yet, he was afraid she might run away, so he couldn't say anything. Zhu Kou could only personally take the sugar from Xu Fang's hand and distribute it to the neighbors standing outside.
