Dressed as a farmer's widow, she brought her daughter to stock up on food and reached the top
Chapter 289 What are you going to do?
The sons of Mrs. Sun got up early and were busy in the yard when it was still dawn.
Jindan was carrying a bundle of firewood, Tiedan was carrying a bucket of water, and Goudan was sweeping the yard with a broom. They were all very energetic.
Huahua also wanted to help. She was wearing a new light yellow dress and walked briskly to Mrs. Sun. She said earnestly, "Mom, let me help too."
Watching her brothers and mother busy preparing for her coming-of-age ceremony, she felt warm in her heart. Although she was a maid, her mother treated her better than her brothers, and her brothers also doted on her.
Although the family was poor, her mother and brother gave her the best.
Mrs. Sun refused to let Huahua help. She took Huahua's hand, patted it gently, and said lovingly, "My daughter, you can't do that today. I know you are filial, but you should stay in the house and rest today. This is the coming-of-age ceremony, and you are the protagonist. You can't get tired."
Mrs. Sun looked at Huahua with a face full of pity.
"Be good and stay in the house until the guests arrive and it's time to eat. This dress is so beautiful, it would be a shame to get it dirty."
Mrs. Sun gently touched Huahua's head again, then turned around and continued to work. Huahua nodded helplessly and walked into the house, looking back every few steps.
Mrs. Sun was just about to go into the kitchen to cook when Aunt Wu came in with a basket of fresh vegetables, smiling.
"Mrs. Sun, I'm here! These are fresh vegetables just picked from the fields. They will add some good luck to your daughter Huahua's coming-of-age ceremony." Aunt Wu said loudly, placing the basket steadily on the ground.
Mrs. Sun hurried over, took the basket, and thanked her repeatedly: "Oh, Aunt Wu, you are so polite. Come in and sit for a while and have a drink of water."
Aunt Wu waved her hand and said, "By the way, I want to tell you that Sister Liu will be here soon."
Mrs. Sun warmly invited Aunt Wu into the house, quickly brought her some tea, and said earnestly, "Aunt Wu, please sit down and have a rest. Have some tea to moisten your throat."
Aunt Wu took the tea, took a sip, and said with emotion, "Time flies by so fast. Huahua has grown up so quickly. Back then she was just a tiny little girl, and now she's about to have her coming-of-age ceremony."
The two were chatting when suddenly Sister Liu's cheerful voice came from outside the courtyard: "It's so lively at home, Sister Sun, I came uninvited!"
Sister Liu's voice arrived before she even showed up, and her voice was full of joy.
Mrs. Sun quickly stood up and went out to greet her, saying with a smile, "Sister Liu, what are you talking about? We are so happy that you can come!"
Sister Liu walked into the yard and said, "I have watched Huahua grow up since she was a child. How can I not attend her coming-of-age ceremony?" Sister Liu handed over the two pumpkins in her hand as she spoke.
Mrs. Sun took the pumpkin and thanked her repeatedly: "Sister Liu, you are so kind to bring something."
Sister Liu waved her hand and said, "This is nothing. We grew them at home. We'll give them to the child's coming-of-age ceremony to add some joy."
Mrs. Sun swiftly brought tea to Sister Liu and said with a smile, "Sister Liu, please have some tea. You must be tired from the journey."
As soon as the words were spoken, the gossipy villagers began arriving one after another. Some carried baskets of eggs, some held handmade embroidery, and still others held homegrown fruit. The villagers all wore warm smiles and kept on saying auspicious words.
Soon, the small main room was full, and Jindan, seeing this, quickly brought in benches. The villagers all sat down in the courtyard, and for a moment, the courtyard was bustling with laughter and chatter. Everyone chatted about the latest happenings in the village.
Jindan looked at the crowds of people in the yard and couldn't help but ask, "Mom, are you planning a big celebration for my sister?"
Mrs. Sun looked at the people in the yard and was also confused. She said, "I'm wondering too. I only notified a few close friends, so why are so many people here?" Mrs. Sun's face was full of confusion, and she was wondering in her heart.
Xiuying brought her daughters to Sun Dasao's house in a hurry. Sun Dasao was sharp-eyed and saw them from afar. She hurriedly trotted to meet them.
Mrs. Sun's face was full of apology. She took Xiuying's hand and said, "Xiuying, you're finally here. I don't know what to do. I didn't notify so many people, but the whole village came."
As they were talking, Aunt Li and Aunt Wu, knowing they were in trouble, came over reluctantly with their heads lowered.
Aunt Li had an awkward smile on her face, while Aunt Wu looked embarrassed. Aunt Li spoke cautiously, "Mrs. Sun, this is all our fault for being quick-witted."
Aunt Wu then added, "We just casually mentioned that Qingfeng's sweetheart would be coming, but we didn't expect everyone to be curious and follow along."
Mrs. Sun sighed helplessly: "You guys!"
At this time, Xiuying, who was standing aside, heard their conversation, especially when she heard the sentence "These people all want to come and see Qingfeng's sweetheart", she suddenly became excited.
"What? How can you spread such rumors? How can Qingfeng live in the village in the future?"
Xiuying stood there, frowning, thinking to herself: "What if the girl gets angry because of this chaotic scene? This is Huahua's coming-of-age ceremony, so I don't want anything to go wrong." Xiuying's face was full of worry, and her heart was beating like a little rabbit.
Thinking of this, Xiuying made a prompt decision and turned to Afan and said, "Afan, go and call a few capable maids in the house, and act quickly!" Xiuying's tone was urgent and her eyes were decisive.
Afan responded and turned to run. Xiuying added, "Also, bring the big round table from home, and bring a few extra ones!"
"I understand, auntie!" Afan spread his legs and ran away. His figure quickly disappeared in the crowd.
Soon, large round tables were neatly arranged in the originally small yard of Mrs. Sun's house.
Two square tables were also carefully arranged in the main room, making it look solemn and tidy.
The table was filled with melon seeds, peanuts, and colorful candies, emitting an enticing aroma.
In the kitchen, Xiuying's capable maids bustled about, some chopping vegetables skillfully, others controlling the heat, and some stirring the soup in the pot, all happily busy.
Mrs. Sun was not idle either. She carefully took out the pork that Xiuying brought yesterday. The pork was fat and lean, and very tempting.
Together with the various fruits and vegetables brought by the villagers today, a sumptuous coming-of-age banquet is being prepared in full swing.
Mrs. Sun never dreamed that the coming-of-age party would be so lively, and even more exciting things were yet to come...
