Both sisters knew this in their hearts, and they had been watching Xia Niu frolicking around ever since.
At this moment, Xia Niu jumped out again.
"Since she wants to manage the household, let her manage it. Anyway, she'll be the one managing the household in the future."
In the future, Song Fang will also get married, and Xia Niu will be the only lady of the house left, so of course she will have to manage the household.
However, she can only manage what she can manage.
"When my sister leaves, she must have made sure everything is arranged."
She wouldn't allow it; if she left, the house would be in chaos, and she didn't want that.
With Chen Erhua standing there, Song Lili needs to make more preparations, right?
"Okay," Song Fang didn't say much more. She trusted her sister completely. She said she would arrange it well, and she definitely would.
Meanwhile, Aunt Fu had also chosen an auspicious day for Song Yongren's gathering and was currently sitting in the main room talking with the two elders.
"I had someone look into it, and the fifth day of next month is an auspicious day, as is the twelfth day of July."
"So, what do you think is the most suitable day to do this?" Aunt Fu asked.
Anyway, she has already sent over the results. As for the rest, it's up to Song Yongren and Zhang Shengtian to discuss it.
"The fifth day of next month? That's not far off, maybe twenty days at most." It's already the twelfth.
"July 12th is probably not a good date. It's almost harvest time then, and everyone will be busy. There's no way to arrange it then."
"Moreover, at that time, everything was in preparation for the autumn harvest, and I guess the Party Secretary and Director wouldn't have agreed."
The autumn harvest is a major event, and everyone must be on high alert. Getting married at that time is probably not an option.
Zhang Shengtian thought about it and realized that it really was the case. "Then let's do it next month. I'm not too busy, so it's perfect."
"Once the business is finished, it will be harvest time. Nothing will be delayed, which is perfect."
"Then let's do it this way." Song Yongren thought for a moment and agreed that next month would be the most suitable date.
It's definitely not going to happen on any particular day during the autumn harvest; don't even think about it.
“Since you both agree, how about the fifth day of next month? It’s perfect timing, since the engagement has been going on for so long, it’s good to get married sooner,” Aunt Fu added.
She was very well-informed; there were almost no rumors circulating in the village that she didn't know about.
So, these words really struck a chord with both fathers, and they couldn't help but nod in agreement.
"Yes, it's better to get it done quickly, so I don't have to worry about it every day."
"That's right, otherwise I'd always be on edge and wouldn't dare to relax."
Both fathers shared the same feeling, and now, talking about it, they both felt a little heartbroken.
"Then it's settled. Let's set it for the fifth day of next month. That's an auspicious day."
"Since everyone isn't too busy, I can help you out and get things done. It will also bring some joy to everyone, so that everyone will work harder during the autumn harvest, right?"
Aunt Fu truly has a silver tongue; her words are so pleasing to the ear and make everyone who hears them feel good.
Her words transformed the joyous occasion of these two families from a matter concerning just two households into a matter for the entire village, and ultimately, a matter that benefits everyone.
Who wouldn't be happy? Who wouldn't feel proud? Everyone feels honored when their own affairs benefit others.
Song Yongren and Zhang Shengtian felt the same way; they both thought that the fifth day of next month would be a once-in-a-lifetime auspicious day.
"Haha, that's great! It'll allow everyone to experience a joyous occasion and have a happy autumn harvest!" Zhang Shengtian clapped his hands and laughed.
“Yes, people are in high spirits when they have good things to do. The autumn harvest can boost one’s spirits. That’s good.” Song Yongren echoed.
"Oh my, this is great news! It's good for everyone, we must get started right away."
"I'll pay my respects to you two brothers here first. I hope your children will live a harmonious and happy life in the future."
When Aunt Fu saw that the two men were happy, she showered them with compliments, making the two fathers so happy they almost lost their bearings.
"Okay, okay," Zhang Shengtian smiled happily.
“They will definitely live a good life,” Song Yongren added, though more subtly than Zhang Shengtian.
"Of course! Look at Qinghua, he's a hardworking and reliable young man. Everyone in the surrounding villages praises him."
"Lili is a capable girl. Not only is she beautiful, but she's also very smart."
"With two people like these, it's hard for their lives not to be prosperous. You two, just wait to hold your grandchildren in your arms," Aunt Fu said happily to the two fathers.
This rosy picture really made the two of them drool; it was something they had been longing for the most.
Zhang Shengtian, in particular, was burning with excitement. His grandson was a precious, tender grandson. How could he not long for him?
He had been envious for a long time, seeing that many people his age had become grandfathers.
Now, it seems like we can look forward to it?
And so, the three of them happily decided on a wedding date for the two of them.
Once it was confirmed, Zhang Shengtian couldn't wait to go home so he could tell Zhang Qinghua the good news.
Song Yongren then called Song Lili out and said, "Lili, Aunt Fu is here today. We've discussed it and decided to set the date for your wedding with Qinghua for the fifth day of next month."
"Next month? The fifth day of the lunar new year?" Song Lili was surprised. Wasn't this a bit too hasty?
“Yes, there was another date, July 12th. But it’s not quite right, as the autumn harvest will be around then, so it’s next month,” Song Yongren explained.
Song Lili nodded. The date in July was indeed inappropriate. If they held the ceremony at that time, many families would probably feel uneasy about it.
Well... how about next month? That sounds pretty good too.
Song Lili calmly accepted the decision.
Compared to Song Lili, Zhang Qinghua was much more excited.
"Sir, you mean the fifth day of next month? That's about twenty days left," Zhang Qinghua said with great surprise.
He originally thought he might have to wait another three or four months, until after the autumn harvest, before holding the event.
Unexpectedly, the date I was so sure of is next month! It's such a pleasant surprise!
However, this was exactly what he wanted, and he could marry Lili sooner rather than later.
"Then...shouldn't we hurry up and get started? Time is running out, will we still make it in time?" Zhang Qinghua seemed a little at a loss, looking at Zhang Shengtian and asking a series of questions.
Zhang Shengtian smiled happily and said, "Don't worry, there's plenty of time. Don't worry."
Getting married these days is simple, so many things can be saved, making preparations much easier.
If you really need to prepare specifically, a few days will suffice, which is great.
