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…”

“Madam, please sit. Let’s continue talking.”

Liu Sisi also hurriedly greeted her, and everyone sat down again.

“Everyone, just eat and drink as you please! The food was brought out to be eaten. Don’t stand on ceremony with Sisi, just enjoy yourselves!”

Everyone naturally agreed, with laughter and cheerful voices all around.

Just as everyone was immersed in the joy, Miao Cuihua squeezed in from outside and joined Liu Sisi with a grin: “Sisi! Your family is getting better and better now, and you shouldn’t need those few silver coins anymore. When will you pay my Shouhou’s wages?”

Miao Cuihua did it on purpose!

She had urged Shouhou to ask for his wages several times before.

Didn’t the Di family become a sub-captain? And they bought so many servants; how could they still lack those wages? Everyone around stopped using their chopsticks and turned to look at Liu Sisi, whispering to each other.

Liu Sisi’s face also didn’t look good. Was Miao Cuihua deliberately trying to undermine the Di family on this big day of celebration by bringing up this matter? Looking at the self-satisfied Miao Cuihua in front of her, her suppressed anger from previous times was ignited at the moment.

She sneered coldly, her eyes flashing with a chill, and the words that came out of her mouth were shocking!

“What’s going on? Didn’t your Shouhou bring the silver coins back to you? That’s impossible! Could there have been an accident? Did Shouhou accidentally lose the silver or lend it to someone else, or gamble it away, or go to the Yihong Courtyard…”

Miao Cuihua never expected Liu Sisi to respond like this, and her face froze for a moment.

“Hey, Liu Sisi, what does this mean? Everyone knows that my Shouhou doesn’t gamble or go to the brothel! Are you deliberately saying this to start an argument? Come on!”

As she spoke, she began to roll up her sleeves, ready to cause a big scene.

“Oh, Cuihua, don’t get angry in a hurry. I’m just telling the truth.”

Liu Sisi looked innocent: “The distribution of the money from the shop is all done by me. When I was handing out the silver, not only was Shouhou there, but Di Cheng was there too. I saw with my own eyes that I handed the silver coins to your Shouhou. Moreover, on the account book, there is Shouhou’s clay handprint on the wages settlement section. Even if I, Liu Sisi, wanted to fake it, I couldn’t!”

As she spoke, she spread her hands, shook her head helplessly, and sighed repeatedly.

“Actually, it’s inevitable for men to fool around sometimes, so we women should still keep a tight grip on the money to avoid any accidents.”

She glanced over Miao Cuihua, and the pity in her eyes made everyone around her imagine all sorts of things.

Everyone’s gaze immediately shifted from Liu Sisi to Miao Cuihua, and it suddenly became clear in their minds. So that’s what happened!

Miao Cuihua looked devastated, for she never thought Shouhou would deceive her. For a moment, she was dumbfounded and couldn’t speak.

This also made the surrounding people even more convinced of their speculation, and the pity in their eyes deepened.

An auntie nearby immediately comforted her: “Cuihua, you can’t just come over here and get angry with Sisi without understanding what happened. Where did the silver go? Do you expect Sisi to watch it for you? I think you should ask your Shouhou properly, as there might be some misunderstandings inside the matter?”
