Jiang Yue and Xue Yan could place them at shorter places, but they couldn’t reach higher places, so it was up to Sifu and the others to put them up.
The word happiness was pasted on the outside, as well as the central room. The central room was also specially decorated. This place was going to be used for the wedding at night. The main door, courtyard door, and other places were also decorated. There were also many red lanterns with the word happiness pasted on them. At night, candles would be lit inside, and the lights would shine brightly, signaling a bright future.
Those things carried to the bride’s house were written with blessings, or decorated beautifully. No matter which one it was, all of them were beautiful.
Shao Youyue wanted to help, but she didn’t know what to do. She ended up helping Li Hehua and Yu Hongyan take care of the children. It just so happened that she also had a child to take care of.
However, Shao Youyue did not take care of the child in the back room on such a joyous and lively day. Instead, she came to the front and took care of them in Li Hehua’s room.
Little Xue Bai and Shoushou were still young, so they were placed in the rocking bed without needing to be carried. However, Xue Shi could already stand up with the help of the rocking bed. He was always curious and liked to crawl around. Shao Youyue paid attention to him sometimes, but other times she didn’t.. She asked Xue Liu to take care of the child with her. As for Zicui, Xia Han, and Miao Han, they were tasked to help out with the wedding. The house was short of people today.
After breakfast, Xue Yan held Jiang Yue’s hand, carried a big basket on his back, and went to the mountain to pick more immortal leaves.
There were quite a few tables for lunch at noon, and there were also quite a few tables for dinner at night. The leaves picked yesterday had been used up, so there was not enough to make more. Therefore, they had to pick the immortal leaves to make immortal tofu. They had agreed to use immortal tofu as a dish today.
Originally, Xue Wufu had planned to accompany the two children, but he had other things to do. Yifu and Erfu were all so busy that they were scrambling around, trying to get things done before the ceremony. He was not doing any better with his assigned tasks, so he could not accompany the two children.
Jiang Yue and Xue Yan only plucked a few leaves before returning. Although the basket was quite big, carrying a basket of leaves was not heavy at all. Xue Yan carried it very easily.
Many people were busy in the yard. Many wives and aunts of the village were also busy by the well under the shed. They were either helping to wash the dishes, wash the vegetables, cut the vegetables, kill the chickens, or mince the meat. Jiang Yue and Xue Yan didn’t go to the well to wash the leaves. Instead, they went to the riverside to wash them.
After washing the leaves, they came back with clean water, crushed the leaves, and filtered them.
The filtered liquid was stored in two large wooden basins.
Then, they added the filtered plant ash water into the two wooden basins and stirred it evenly.
After they were done, they put it aside.
“Let me do it.” Xue Wufu was afraid that the two children would be unable to carry them. When he saw them, he quickly put down the work in his hands and came over first to carry the two wooden basins to the side.
“Thank you, Wufu.” Jiang Yue and Xue Yan both thanked him.
“There’s no need to thank me. Go and play.” Xue Wufu helped them cover the two wooden basins with something before jumping back to his work like a monkey.
Jiang Yue and Xue Yan didn’t go to play but instead tidied up the place they had just messed up.
As they were packing up, a carriage stopped in front of their courtyard. They looked over and saw Shen Yuxuan alighting from the carriage with a small medicine box on his back.
Behind him was a servant who was holding a gift in both hands.
When Sanfu got married in the past, Shen Yuxuan’s family didn’t send gifts. However, because Doctor Shen often came here to check his mother’s pulse, he not only got to know everyone in his family but also became very friendly with them. Doctor Shen knew that Sanfu was getting married that day. He had already told them that he would come today..
