Those attending the feast were all villagers, and they started joking around.
"That groom is really unlucky," someone whispered.
"Absolutely, life here is like a circus act, all twists and turns."
Listening to the surrounding chatter and seeing Chen Dashun's disheveled appearance, Ye Xiaoxiao thought to herself, "This is truly reaping what you sow. You listened to your wife and tried to harm me, and now look what happened, it's all karma."
The fifth and sixth brothers, their bellies bulging, were still fighting over the last chicken leg. Ye Xiaoxiao couldn't stand it anymore:
"You two, can't you eat a little more gracefully? You're making yourselves a laughingstock."
"Sister-in-law," the sixth brother grinned.
"Anyway, my second sister is already married, so when will we get such a good opportunity again?"
Li Chenhui was in the worst mood. He lost his new clothes and didn't know if his mother would make him another set later.
He felt disgusted if the Chen family washed it and sent it back.
To get married wearing someone else's hand-me-downs... *slaps the sixth son on the back of the head*
"You think you're so capable? Just wait until we get back and Dad will give you a piece of his mind."
On the way home, everyone praised Ye Xiaoxiao for being such a good sister-in-law.
Otherwise, the marriage would be in jeopardy today, and who knows what kind of mess it would turn into.
Along the way, the villagers all gave Ye Xiaoxiao a thumbs up.
"Xiaoxiao, if it weren't for you, Yanhong's wedding would have been a complete disaster. You're really amazing!"
"That's right, let's see who still says the eldest sister-in-law and the younger sister-in-law don't get along. If they didn't get along, would she be so protective of Yan Hong?"
...
Hearing these praises, Ye Xiaoxiao felt a little guilty. If it weren't for her mission, who would care if Li Yanhong died?
Regardless, she did a lot of work in the wedding and helped the Li family out of a difficult situation.
When I got home, it was already afternoon.
Her in-laws' attitude towards Ye Xiaoxiao also improved significantly. Her mother-in-law, Liu Juan, smiled and said to Ye Xiaoxiao:
"Xiaoxiao, you've really worked hard today. If it weren't for you, this wedding would have been a joke."
Ye Xiaoxiao quickly said, "Mom, this is what I should do. We're all family."
Li Jianguo nodded in agreement, "Yes, Xiaoxiao, we'll have to rely on you a lot more to take care of things at home from now on."
Ye Xiaoxiao thought to herself, "That's more like it. They used to treat me like that, but now they finally know how good I am to them."
Next up was the homecoming gift ceremony two days later. Ye Xiaoxiao rubbed her lower back, looking very tired.
"Xiaoxiao, go back inside and rest." Liu Juan said with a smile.
Ye Xiaoxiao could still hear them discussing their homecoming visit two days later when she went back inside.
In our village, there are only a few things to do, but the daughter and her new son-in-law's first visit is a big deal.
Now they're discussing how to properly entertain Chen Dashun that day. Things like buying groceries and wine.
Ye Xiaoxiao was listening when the curtain was lifted. Her mother-in-law came in first.
"Xiaoxiao, I'll have to trouble you to cook for the red wedding reception. You know Mom's cooking skills aren't great."
Ye Xiaoxiao didn't really want to take on this job. Her sister-in-law was too annoying and did a lot of disgusting things later on, offending all the brothers in the original story.
"Mom, I'm..."
[Task: Prepare a beautiful homecoming banquet.]
Ye Xiaoxiao nearly choked on this system. What's wrong with it? Why does it keep choking her? [System, are you sure you didn't say something wrong?]
[Host, you're the ultimate big sister-in-law. You can't let us down at this crucial moment.]
"Mom, I can manage that, but you'll have to buy the vegetables and meat! My husband and I don't have any money!"
Ye Xiaoxiao had no choice but to take on this job.
"That's for sure. Your dad means to make eight dishes, four cold and four hot."
Four meat dishes and four vegetable dishes. How much do you think this will cost?
Liu Juan thought ten yuan would be enough. She was just afraid that her daughter-in-law would ask for too much.
"Oh, this? I don't want any money. You can buy it yourselves. It'll save you from having to pay me back later."
I think we'll need about a pound of beef and two pounds of pork, since my second uncle's family will be coming over for dinner.
"With so many people, we'll need at least three tables..."
Ye Xiaoxiao told her mother-in-law about the foods that people could eat now, based on her memory.
In the end, the mother-in-law said she couldn't remember, so she called the father-in-law over and wrote it down.
Let Li Chenyang handle the grocery shopping. There's no other way; the family hasn't separated yet, and all the money is with his father.
Although Ye Xiaoxiao had some money, what did it have to do with her? She had no intention of spending her own money to cook this meal.
That night, Ye Xiaoxiao found it all quite amusing. She couldn't help but laugh out loud.
What are you laughing at?
A hand reached under Ye Xiaoxiao's neck and pulled her into an embrace.
Ye Xiaoxiao was immediately hugged by Li Chenyang, whose hands began to wander.
"Don't hug me, aren't you hot?" Ye Xiaoxiao felt the burning embrace behind her and tried to push it away, but couldn't.
"I'm not hot. How could I be hot holding my wife? Tell me, what were you laughing at just now?"
Li Chenyang rubbed his big face against Ye Xiaoxiao's neck, being incredibly affectionate.
Ye Xiaoxiao's face was hot and red at this moment, but thankfully it was nighttime and couldn't be seen.
"I'm laughing so hard your mom'll be furious tomorrow."
"What do you mean? You're not going to help with cooking tomorrow?"
Li Chenyang thought his wife was going to go against his mother again tomorrow. He was pinched by Ye Xiaoxiao right after he finished speaking.
"Am I that kind of person? If I don't want to do it, I won't agree to it; if I agree to it, I will definitely do it."
"Oh no, why is Mom angry?"
Li Chenyang is thick-skinned and used to being pinched by his wife. He only feels uncomfortable when his wife ignores him.
