From Folly to Fortune：I Rewrite My Life After Rebirth!-Chapter 809 - 805: The Final Push (Second Update)

Mu Dashan’s ’our father, our mother’ naturally doesn’t refer to Old Mrs. Mu and Mr. Mu.

It’s Mu Shuangshuang’s maternal grandparents.

Mu Dalang is the eldest grandson of the Old Mu Family. According to the customs of the Da Ning Dynasty, relatives from Yu Si Niang’s side would come over, and how many would come depended on how much the Old Yu Family valued their daughter.

Like the second branch, Lin Xiaozao’s family, only Lin Xiaozao’s mother—Mrs. Qian came.

The fourth branch, Mrs. Liu’s family, brought Mu Xiaxia’s maternal grandparents, which showed that the Old Yu Family gave face by having a lot of people come.

Yu Si Niang was so excited that she could barely hold the kitchen knife in her hand.

"Shuangshuang, your father and I will go see your maternal grandparents first. I’ll come back to tidy things up later, alright?" Yu Si Niang said.

"Mom, don’t worry, I’ll take care of it here!" Mu Shuangshuang replied.

All day, Mu Shuangshuang needed to stay in the kitchen to prepare. Only after dinner was ready could she take a break.

Yu Si Niang and Mu Dashan headed to the third branch, and after a while, Feng Xiaohua came to the kitchen.

Without saying much, she rolled up her sleeves to assist Mu Shuangshuang.

Feng Xiaohua still remembered Mu Shuangshuang’s help with the last incident; if she hadn’t driven Luo Xiu’er away, she and Yu Liulang would probably still be treated like fools by Luo Xiu’er.

Subsequently, she even helped Yu Liulang find a doctor, so Mu Shuangshuang held a special place in Feng Xiaohua’s eyes.

Feng Xiaohua wore a new pink outfit today, looked vibrant, and even her smile was exceptionally sweet.

"Shuangshuang, let’s go see the bride later and catch some of that good fortune!" Feng Xiaohua said.

"That might have to wait until the evening. I can’t leave now. There aren’t many relatives coming for lunch, but dinner is the main meal, and I have to prepare all afternoon!"

Mu Shuangshuang could only feel relieved that the wedding ceremony would start in the evening.

Otherwise, being busy with all those things would mean she couldn’t even watch the ceremony.

"Then I’ll stay with you!"

In the kitchen, everything proceeded smoothly.

The front yard was the same; lunch was served just in time according to Mu Shuangshuang’s arrangement.

The few relatives from the Old Mu Family couldn’t stop talking when they saw the spread on the table.

"This Old Mu Family really has become wealthy; it’s not even the main meal, yet there’s so much meat!"

The man who had argued with Mr. Mu expressed his awe.

A few people beside him immediately chimed in.

"Of course, after all, he’s a scholar. I heard from Da De that this time, it’s going to be a grand occasion!"

It was one thing to say, but hearing it made everyone even more envious.

The Old Mu Family had money and people, taking all the good things; there seemed to be no justice.

At this time, Old Mrs. Mu pulled Mr. Mu over to show off.

"Cousin, this lunch is just a little something, but tonight’s dinner will be even more lavish. If you wish to stay a few days at the Old Mu Family, feel free. We are not stingy people and will not serve you pot water!"

The old man mentioned felt embarrassed; he remarked earlier in the day that the Old Mu Family’s feast wouldn’t be good, probably just pot water, because the Old Mu Family was too frugal.

"Well... Sis-in-law, if you’re not busy, we’ll start eating. Previously, we won’t hold a grudge for what Gou Dan did. If you continue to be like this, it’ll be easier for us relatives to visit and connect with you!"

Mr. Mu felt uncomfortable hearing this.

After hesitating for a while, he left with Old Mrs. Mu.

The lunch temporarily eased the grievances of the family relatives and their appetite for gossip.

After lunch, Mr. Mu personally visited the kitchen to instruct Mu Shuangshuang about the evening’s arrangements.

What dishes to prepare, when to serve, and the flavor preferences.

Mr. Mu repeated the instructions over and over, fearing that Mu Shuangshuang might forget.

Towards the end, the Huang Brothers grew tired.

"Old man, aren’t you annoying? Don’t you have a clue how much you’re spending per table with all these demands?"

Back then, for Granny Chen’s twenty coins per table, peeling garlic, cutting meat, killing chickens and ducks, everyone in the Old Mu Family helped.

This time, aside from not buying materials, Mu Shuangshuang had to do everything and was taking only twenty-five coins per table.

As for the Huang Brothers and Lu Yuanfeng, it was even less, eight coins per table—dozens of tables could wear people out.

Even with this, everyone accepted.

The most crucial reason was to help Mu Dalang.

"Who are you?" Old Man Mu’s face was full of anger.

Getting criticized on a joyous day was something he couldn’t stand.

"Grandpa, I found them here to help, they’re working in the kitchen, later they need to go out and serve dishes!" Mu Shuangshuang said.

Mr. Mu thought about it and called Mu Shuangshuang out, saying directly to her, "Shuang, those two don’t look like good people. Send them away and find others!"

Mr. Mu wore a new outfit today, his slightly protruding belly leaning forward.

Speaking to Mu Shuangshuang, his tone was somewhat imperious.

Mu Shuangshuang figured that the many visitors today elevated Mr. Mu’s status, making him a bit disoriented.

"Alright, I also wanted to replace a few people!" Mu Shuangshuang’s words had barely reached halfway when Mr. Mu was already delighted.

The granddaughter in front of him finally seemed to know to listen to him.

"Shuang, rest assured, Grandpa won’t mistreat you. Once your uncle goes to the Capital for the exam, the Old Mu Family..."

"Grandpa, I wasn’t done speaking. I meant to send Huang Da and Huang Er away and call eight to ten people from the village!

The kitchen work is plenty already, and there are just a few people; you want to send some away. Don’t forget how many came to help when my aunt got engaged!"

Mu Shuangshuang’s meaning clearly pointed out Mr. Mu’s favoritism.

Mr. Mu’s old face turned red, feeling awkward under Mu Shuangshuang’s gaze.

"Since Grandpa left the kitchen to me, everything should go according to what I say. I decide who to use. Others I won’t use, nor do I want to use!

Besides, tonight, Shuang only prepares dinner; snacks are not included. Either have people come early or inform the guests that we won’t serve late-night snacks!"

"You..." Mr. Mu pointed at Mu Shuangshuang’s forehead, about to scold her when Mu Dazhong burst in.

"Dad, the Qin Family is here, the Qin Family is here..."

It’s no wonder Mu Dazhong was excited. With the Qin Family’s arrival, the planned incidents could unfold.

This time, Qin Shijie must restore the Old Mu Family’s reputation and, before the entire village, ask Mu Dade to marry Mu Xiangxiang to the Qin Family.

Mr. Mu’s face lit up; he abandoned everything else and headed straight out of the courtyard to greet the Qin Family.

Mu Shuangshuang knew that today’s marriage event involving Mu Dalang featured not just Mu Dalang and Huang Bita, but also Mu Dade and the Qin Family who would intervene.

Just unsure what’s going to happen next!
