New Year's Eve had just passed, and time seemed to fly by.
Xu Jingjing was to marry on the sixth day after the New Year. Xu Xiuxiu had brought Song Yuanhuan and the children back to her parents' home on the second day of the New Year to help out. Mr. Xu, being a man, had little experience with weddings. Previously, Mrs. Xu had handled the household matters, and he had grown accustomed to having someone else arrange everything. Although Xu Jingjing did not plan to have a lavish wedding banquet, the family still had to host a departure drink for their daughter's wedding.
So, Xu Xiuxiu was very busy. She had no time to rest at all; she left the children in Xu Jingjing's room for the bride-to-be to look after, then she personally took care of the purchasing, banquet arrangements, helpers from the clan, and supervising the cooking chefs, all out of fear that any mishap might occur.
