For the next three to four days, Xia Qiming lived the life of a landlord.
Other than going to work, he had the rain to wait on him at home. He didn't even have to do the laundry and cook himself. It was really as if he had to hand out his clothes and eat his food. Those days were extremely blissful.
Xia Qiming had wanted to help at first. He couldn't just recommend a cripple like this!
However, He Yushui refused to let him go. She even scolded him, saying that this was what a woman should do. Why should a man like him get involved?
Xia Qiming was speechless on the surface, but he was overjoyed on the inside.
In the past, although the economy was not very developed, the wife he married was really virtuous. If it was in the future, he would not even think about it!
The author looked at the 200-pound heavy tank lying beside him and shed tears of joy and envy.
The matter between Silly Zhu and Xu Damao had also faded a lot. As expected, time could still wash away everything.
His house had not been robbed for the past few days. It turned out that Granny Jia was really worried that her eldest grandson would be harmed again, so she urged him to stop for a few days.
If Silly Zhu didn't do anything else, he would go and get it!
Yes, take it! Not steal!
Silly Zhu was also quite happy to see her sister getting married.
However, he didn't prepare any dowry for Rainwater. The main reason was that he really didn't have much savings. In addition, he had just compensated Xu Damao with a month's salary a few days ago, so the money he could save was even less.
He was going to save the rest for Widow Qin so that she could introduce him to a partner.
In the end, Shazhu bought a thermos and a washbasin as a token of her appreciation.
Xia Qiming really didn't care about these things. It would be better if he could give her something, but it didn't matter if he didn't.
He did not lack this!
On the other hand, He Yushui looked at the gift from her silly brother. Although she accepted it, her face was dark the entire time. She already had a grudge against her silly brother, and now it was even deeper.
Even though everyone was particular about keeping a low profile at this time, it was not to the extent that it would be so shabby to marry his younger sister. This was still his biological younger sister.
He Yushui didn't care about those things, but her heart.
If you said that you didn't have money, when did you ever borrow money from Widow Qin and spend more than this thermos basin?
Moreover, he said that it was a loan. Did the Jia family return it once?
He Yushui was still unhappy. Her face was full of unhappiness. After Xia Qiming comforted her, she smiled again.
A few days later, after some preparation, Xia Qiming set up a six-table banquet in the courtyard house.
The two of them invited everyone in the courtyard to the scene and had a hearty and happy meal.
Of course, he also invited Widow Qin's family. Ning Luo was in a group, not one person. Xia Qiming was not that stingy.
It was best to bring a fellow along for such a joyous occasion and receive everyone's blessings. He could not be gossiped about just because one family was missing.
These six tables had prepared quite a lot of food, but they didn't spend much money. They only used a little more oil, salt, sauce, and vinegar.
Chickens, fish, and rabbits were all found in the space. There was one for each table. If the rooster was not enough, he even killed two hens.
Fortunately, there were some chicks in the space. There were more than 30 of them, and they looked like a small group.
When they were all grown up, Xia Qiming would no longer lack chicken meat to eat.
The meat was bought at the market. He got a pound of braised pork for each table. Anyway, he had enough meat tickets now.
As for the wine, it was a little lacking. Other than the two bottles of Fenjiu on their main table, the other tables were scattered.
As for the head chef, he couldn't cook anymore since Xia Qiming was getting married today.
In the end, it was his brother-in-law, Silly Zhu, who did it. Silly Zhu had also used a lot of his real skills, and his performance was no worse than Xia Qiming's.
With so many meat dishes and Shazhu's cooking skills, it was a feast for everyone.
According to etiquette, every family had to buy something along with the gift.
However, Xia Qiming really didn't lack anything now, so he simply told everyone that he didn't want it.
Even if the others didn't say it, Third Uncle's family was filled with joy when they heard it. This saved them a lot and even spared them a meal. It was really not bad.
However, in the end, Third Uncle still took the red paper seriously and wrote a few happy words for him. He even boasted that he had learned the thin golden body of Emperor Hui of Song Dynasty.
Xia Qiming, who had graduated from junior high school, could not figure out the meaning of the handwriting after reading it for a long time. Anyway, he thought that the handwriting was quite good and looked really good, so he accepted it happily.
Although he had already pasted the word 'happy' on it before, no one would complain about having too many of them.
Speaking of which, was it so easy to take Third Uncle's things?
Of course not!
Seeing Xia Qiming put away the 'happy' word, Third Uncle finally spoke.
"Qiming, I think you've prepared enough dishes. There's so much meat and cabbage and potatoes. I don't think we can finish them all!”
"How about this? "Today is your festive day. Third Uncle will also help you. In a while, I will help you clean up the leftovers. There is no need for the two of you to work anymore.”
"How is it?"
This Third Uncle was really scheming. He could still say that he wanted leftovers so righteously and even said that he was helping Xia Qiming.
"Third Master, you're late. My brother-in-law, He Yuzhu, has already ordered the leftovers!”
Needless to say, everyone knew who Silly Zhu wanted the leftovers for.
As for Xia Qiming, it didn't matter who he gave it to. He was happy today anyway.
"Why don't you go and discuss it with my brother-in-law?”
Xia Qiming did not call him Brother Zhu Zi anymore. Anyway, he was too lazy to pretend to be polite.
Third Uncle really went over to discuss with Silly Zhu. In the end, after much persuasion, he really got two tables of leftovers.
The prerequisite was that Silly Zhu wanted him to introduce their school's Teacher Ran to him.
Third Uncle didn't care what Silly Zhu said. He would agree to it. The leftovers were already in his hands.
Actually, there wouldn't be many leftovers. What time was it now? Everyone was barely able to eat their fill, so it was not an era of good food.
Today, Xia Qiming had prepared such a feast that was comparable to the New Year's feast. It would be strange if there were many things left.
The meat dishes were served on the table. The amount was not small, but after a while, each person took a few more chopsticks and still ran out.
Widow Qin and Third Master's family were heartbroken.
She was complaining in her heart that everyone could not eat slower. The rest was all hers!
However, despite their heartache, the speed at which these two family members picked up the meat was faster than anyone else. They were afraid that if they were slow, they would lose out.
Fortunately, there was still enough food. In the end, everyone was very satisfied with what they had eaten. They sat there with their stomachs puffed out, unwilling to move.
Xia Qiming and He Yushui were also very happy to see everyone eating so well. When they toasted, everyone said a lot of beautiful words to the bride and groom.
Even Xu Damao said that if there was anything in the future, there would definitely be no problem.
Regardless of whether this was true or not, it seemed that the invitation was not in vain.
