Hu Liang carried a string of firecrackers outside the courtyard gate and lit it. Ji Liansong and Ji Mingfang helped set up the incense table, while Second Sister-in-law Xu, Sixth Sister-in-law Feng, and the others had been busy since early morning.
Originally, Ji Huan had only planned to hold a banquet for those who came to help, so two or three tables would have been enough.
But the situation had changed.
First, the village chief had publicly acknowledged his role as matchmaker in front of the villagers, shielding Ji Huan from a great deal of unnecessary gossip. Ji Huan appreciated this kindness and certainly couldn't leave out such an important figure.
When Hu Liang went to invite him yesterday afternoon, Village Chief Meng had hesitated for a moment but ultimately nodded and agreed to come.
Then, the other families who had joined the Golden Partners venture also came by to offer their congratulations, so of course, seats had to be saved for them.
