Are these people all reincarnated starving ghosts? They're all eating like this. Even the children are embarrassed to eat like this.
Despite the disdainful looks from the crowd, the Lu family ignored them completely. They had all held a meeting to discuss Han Luoxue's upcoming marriage. Under normal circumstances, they wouldn't bother to send away guests.
They came to eat at the banquet and brought gifts. Everyone came to celebrate with Han Luoxue. Surely Han Laosan's family wouldn't turn away their relatives?
If they really want to drive people away, then it won't be them who are in the wrong, but rather Han Laosan's family.
Their sole purpose in coming here was to eat, eat, eat—enough to eat for at least a few days so they wouldn't be so hungry later.
So what do other people's opinions matter? Can they even fill your stomach?
The children watching watched as the big white steamed buns fell into the hands of those people, and the two of us wolfed them down. Some of the children even burst into tears.
They wanted to eat too, but their families wouldn't let them. How could these people possibly take the steamed buns?
Suddenly, it was chaotic outside, with children crying and adults scolding each other. The whole courtyard looked like a vegetable market.
Even Han Luoxue inside the room heard it. Han Luoyu stormed out, glaring at the Lu family members who were still eating like starving ghosts, and shouted angrily, "Did you come here to attend my sister's wedding? Or to eat?"
"It's definitely for eating..."
Before the old woman could finish speaking, her mouth was covered. Han Jinghua reacted quickly, a fawning smile on her face and an overly obsequious voice: "Yu'er, your second aunt is here to attend the little girl's wedding."
"Is this how you attend a wedding?"
Han Luoyu glanced at the Lu family members who were still eating heartily. Fortunately, only steamed buns had been served so far; if the meat had been cooked, she worried that it would have been devoured by these people.
"Hehe, things aren't easy at home, we've all been starving for so long, so we ate a bit more. Yu'er, we're all family, you wouldn't even let us have a bite to eat, would you?"
"Today is a special day for the little girl, so we got ready early this morning."
Although Han Jinghua had a smile on her face, she was inwardly complaining: "Han Mingyuan's family is getting stingier and stingier. There's so much delicious food, but they won't even share any with me."
"Second sister, today is the little girl's special day, how could you do this?"
Hearing the commotion, Han Lenghua ran out of the kitchen. She had settled down in Hutouya Village; the village chief had approved a plot of land for her family, and the villagers had already helped them build the house.
They were given their land back, and now Hutouya Village has fully accepted them.
"Oh, big sister, it's easy for you to say that when you're not the one suffering. You're living the high life by that little girl's side, eating and drinking like a king. Unlike me, I'm starving all the time."
"That little girl is really something. We're all her aunts, so why does he treat you differently?"
Han Jinghua still has no sense of right or wrong. Does she feel no guilt what she did in the past?
"Second sister, don't you have any idea how you treated that little girl before?"
Even the usually gentle and mild-mannered Han Lenghua couldn't help but frown.
“What did I do wrong? In the past, I only took a few small things from her. Why would she hold a grudge? Now that we're doing well, she doesn't even bother to help her relatives. How can we have such an ungrateful niece?”
Han Jinghua said with a face full of resentment.
"You're calling Xue a heartless wretch? You're not heartless, but how have you treated Third Brother's family? Wasn't that thief who stole their grain your man?"
Speaking of this, Han Jinghua was furious.
“We only came to my third brother’s house to get some food, but he actually used an animal trap, which made my husband stay in bed for a long time.”
"We're all relatives, what's wrong with coming over to take some grain? What kind of thief are we?"
Hearing their conversation, Han Luoyu wanted to slap her second aunt twice. She'd seen shameless people before, but never anyone this shameless. They hadn't intended to target anyone or kick anyone out, as they were guests, but her second aunt's family had gone too far.
Han Luoyu glanced at everyone, her gaze finally settling on Han Qiang.
"Grandpa Village Head, they're just here to cause trouble. Get them out of here."
Hearing this, everyone's faces lit up with joy. Judging from the Lu family's display of force, it was fortunate that the meat wasn't ready yet, otherwise they could have devoured half of it.
Before Han Qiang could speak, the crowd surged forward, pushing and shoving, forcing everyone from the Lu family, adults and children alike, out of the house. The area in front of Han Mingyuan's house became even more chaotic.
The Lu family also incurred public wrath; these steamed buns were originally meant for them, but ended up benefiting this group.
"You can't drive me away, I gave you a gift."
Han Jinghua shouted loudly, and Han Ruoyu picked up the three feet of coarse cloth she had brought and threw it at Han Jinghua's head: "Get out, you are not welcome here."
They had just chased away the twenty-odd people and watched them leave the village when everyone hurriedly ran back.
At this moment, the Lu family members were stunned; they hadn't expected to actually be driven away.
However, touching their bellies, which were already noticeably bulging, everyone felt a surge of relief. Luckily, they started eating as soon as they arrived, otherwise the trip would have been in vain.
Han Jinghua, in particular, was clutching the piece of cloth she had just picked up. Although it was just ordinary coarse cloth, it could still be used to make a garment. It would be a shame to throw it away.
Using this piece of coarse cloth as a substitute, the whole family got a free meal on this trip, so it was still a good deal.
Everyone was satisfied and prepared to go home.
Just then, a gentle breeze blew by, carrying with it a rich aroma of meat. Even after sniffing hard, the children's mouths watered even more: "There's meat! There's more meat!"
It's all their fault for being kicked out too early, otherwise they could have eaten more meat.
The group, who were already about 80% full, now felt they had been cheated. While the steamed buns were delicious and filling, nothing beat the aroma of meat.
If they had known this would happen, they should have stayed until they finished eating the meat. Looking at the pairs of eyes around her, gleaming with anticipation, and smelling the delicious aroma in the air, how could they possibly take a step?
With that meaty aroma, even ten oxen couldn't sway a person away.
"Let's go back."
Someone said something, and the others nodded frantically.
Let's go back and eat meat, it smells so good!
"But... what if they really hit someone?"
Some people were still afraid when they thought about the sinister looks on those people's faces.
"We'll go later. We'll go when we hear the firecrackers; they're about to hold a ceremony."
Lu Xiaonan's mind worked the fastest, and he quickly came up with a perfect plan:
"If we hurry, they won't just abandon the wedding ceremony and kick us out, will they?"
He hated Han Mingyuan's family even more now.
He will never forget the pain he felt then.
As the group was still discussing, they saw several magnificent carriages slowly approaching from not far away.
Two of them were particularly exquisite.
