To avoid having to search for someone at the last minute. In such a rush, what good person could one possibly find?
Alright, I've delivered the message. Think it over carefully. I'll take my leave now!
While Shen Zhaochen was in a state of utter confusion, at the Shen family home, Chi Yu gestured to her second sister-in-law to open the basket, take out the items, and hand them to her.
Then he got straight to the point: "Miss Ye, my sister-in-law and I have come here today because we need your help with something."
Since Chen Yejun had no shortage of food and drink, his gaze fell on the two silk flowers.
Looking at the lifelike peonies and crabapple blossoms, she reached out and touched them with great affection.
However, all of this was averted immediately upon hearing Chi Yu's words.
She neither agreed nor refused outright, but said, "Please speak, Miss Chi Yu!"
"It's nothing major! It's just that my second sister-in-law is getting married soon, I suppose you already know that, right?"
Shen Yejun nodded: "Yes, I heard it's the eighth day!"
Chi Qing also came over and invited her older brother to come and be a witness together!
"Yes, it's the eighth day of the month!"
Here's what happened: This morning, Sister-in-law Wang came over and said that according to the custom in Wangjiawan, when welcoming the bride, the groom's family must have an unmarried girl go to greet the newlyweds and help them by holding an umbrella.
You've lived in our Chijia'ao for a while now, so you should know that there are more men than women in Chijia'ao.
I'm the only young woman here.
As you surely know, I'm really not suited to be the one holding the umbrella.
The oldest girl in Chijia'ao, besides me, is only five years old right now.
So my sister-in-law and I thought about it and wondered if we could ask you to help us go to the wedding procession and hold an umbrella for the bride.
Of course, you'll definitely receive a red envelope.
According to the other party, the girl who helps with the wedding procession must be a blessed person.
Miss Ye, your parents are both alive, and your brother is a promising scholar.
My sister-in-law is virtuous and kind, and my two nephews and nieces are intelligent and clever.
No matter how you look at it, he is a blessed person.
So, my second sister-in-law and I shamelessly came over to ask if it would be possible.
Shen Yejun thought it was something serious, but when he heard it was just helping with the wedding procession and holding an umbrella, he readily agreed.
"Alright, I wonder when the wedding procession will take place? Hmm, I mean, what time will we depart to fetch the bride? I'll make sure I get there early."
Huang Dani had already prepared herself to patiently persuade the other party, but to her surprise, the other party agreed immediately.
This delighted her, and she quickly replied, "The departure time is 5:00 AM and the arrival time is 1:00 PM."
Miss Ye, please come early so we can have breakfast together before setting off!
Oh, by the way, starting tomorrow night, remember to come over for dinner.
Shen Yejun didn't hesitate: "Okay, I'll go over tomorrow night. Just tell me what to do then, Sister-in-law Huang."
I will definitely arrive before 7 AM the day after tomorrow!
Since the other party agreed, Huang Dani, who had a lot of things to do at home, got up and said:
"Alright, then I'll leave this matter to you, Miss Ye."
There's a ton of stuff waiting for me at home, I need to go back first.
"Yes, Sister Huang, take care, Miss Chi Yu!"
While Chi Yu and Huang Dani were returning to the second wife's house, Chi Qiao and Chen Xiaomai finally climbed up the charcoal mountain and arrived at the Wang family's temporary residence.
Wang Qiaoya's mother had only been back for a short time, and was currently discussing this matter with her mother-in-law.
Before he could finish speaking, his daughter's voice came from outside the door.
"Aunt, Third Aunt, what brings you here? Please come in and sit down. Third Sister, go and pour two bowls of hot tea!"
