Chapter 477: Chapter 477: The Changes in the Di Family

After saying that, she gave a signal to Da Niu and Er Niu behind her.

Da Niu and Er Niu left to carry out their orders, quickly lighting firecrackers that attracted a crowd of fellow villagers.

Liu Sisi then took out prepared wedding candies, wedding pastries, and scattered copper coins, letting the numerous adults and children grab them. This was a custom in the Upper Village; whenever there was a joyous event, it would usually be celebrated like this. Naturally, the number of wedding candies, pastries, and copper coins depended on the generosity of the hosts.

Of course, Liu Sisi was not a stingy person. She prepared a whole five taels of silver in scattered copper coins, but she didn’t throw them all at once, waiting for Di Yelei to return in the evening for the highlight of the event!

The crowd scrambled for the items, and those who managed to grab some quietly pocketed them with smiles on their faces. With sharp eyes, Liu Sisi noticed Ms. Wang among the crowd, her wallet bulging, probably having grabbed quite a few things this time.

She seemed to have noticed Liu Sisi’s gaze, and with a silly chuckle, she suddenly slipped out of the crowd and disappeared.

Seeing that everyone had almost finished scrambling, the villagers started to disperse and chat casually.

Guihua and Liu Zhi’er helped welcome everyone while Liusisi, feeling exhausted, went back to her room for a short rest.

At noon, a feast was arranged inside and outside the Di Family courtyard, and the fellow villagers began taking their seats one after another.

Guihua was straightforward and helpful, assisting both inside and outside, which saved Liu Sisi a lot of effort. Liu Zhi’er worked silently, organizing everything neatly. Not to mention that old Cheng and Granny Hu’s family, who were specially brought by Liu Sisi to help with the feast, served dishes and cleared tables professionally.

The villagers were envious, only then truly feeling that the Di Family had become incomparably better than before!

Eating from noon until dusk, when Di Yelei and Zhang Peng returned riding jujube red horses, the atmosphere at the scene reached its peak. Along with them came Zuo Xingyu.

Disliking the persistent Zuo Xingyu, Liu Sisi handed him over to Di Yelei to entertain and hid herself in the kitchen area.

Liu Sisi ordered the servants to set up a table in the hall where she arranged for the Land Officer and other guests with higher status to sit. Earlier, Elderly Mr. Di had been accompanying them, and now Di Yelei took over.

On this side of the kitchen, a table was naturally set for familiar female relatives.

Land Officer’s wife, Ms. Zhao, Ms. Xin, Ms. Wang, Guihua, and Liu Zhi’er, and others were gathered here. Seeing Liu Sisi entering, the Land Officer’s wife hastily greeted her, “Sisi, come and sit here!”

“Madam Land Officer.”

Liu Sisi also smiled and greeted everyone before sitting down next to the Land Officer’s wife.

“Sisi, in the future, you must not pay respect to my wife like this. She can’t handle it. You will be the wife of the sub-captain. You can’t be compared to ordinary civilians like us.”

“Madam, what are you talking about?”

Liu Sisi spoke righteously, “Not to mention that Yelei is only a seventh-rank sub-captain, even if he becomes the Great General, he would still be a person who came from our Upper Village. He would still be the wild boy who grew up under Uncle Land Officer’s care. You can accept Sisi’s bow.”

Liu Sisi’s words warmed the Land Officer’s wife’s heart, and she immediately grasped her hand, “Good Sisi…”
