Chapter 2186 Double Blessings Arrive

were playing at the table.The two boys quickly gathered around.“Sister, what's wrong with my mother Who bullied her”Dai An frowned.Yang Ruqing poured a bowl of tea for Sun Shi, letting her calm down....Old Yang nodded, habitually taking a puff of dry tobacco and exhaling the smoke.

Then, his gaze swept over the numerous grandchildren gathered around the table, and he smiled as he began to speak.

"What I'm going to tell you tonight, is a happy event, a great happy event for our old Yang family," he said.

"Our Yang family, the eldest branch, our eldest grandson Yongxian is getting married."

“And then there's Yongzhi, who's also getting married again! With these two happy events happening at the same time, it truly is double happiness!”

Upon hearing Lao Yang's words, everyone at the table nodded in agreement. It truly was a double blessing!

Then Lao Yang continued, "Now, the main things we need to talk about tonight are the New Year's gifts and the wedding."

"Today is the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month. This year, the Lunar New Year's Eve falls on the twenty-ninth day of the twelfth lunar month."

“At most, there are only twenty-one days left.”

"On the 24th day of the twelfth lunar month, we receive our ancestors. After receiving the ancestors, we no longer follow the custom of holding happy events. Therefore, this marriage has to be held before the 24th."

"There are several days left before the eighth day of the lunar calendar, these two days will be used to prepare things. There is a fourteen-day gap in between to prepare for the wedding, and there are two weddings to arrange."

"Goodness, time is of the essence! That's why I called you all over tonight. The main purpose is to discuss the details for this year's New Year gift boxes and also set a date for the wedding!"

"Let's hear what everyone thinks, don't always leave it to me to talk!" Lao Yang finished his words and gave a encouraging look to the people at the table.

Then he picked up his pipe again and started puffing away.

Yang Huazhong glanced around and said, “Among us here, I'm the oldest. Let me say a few words first.”

"Eternal Immortal is the eldest, Eternal Wisdom is the third. Eternal Immortal is the first wife, Eternal Wisdom is the second."

“Although there might be some differences in terms of age or seniority, however,”

“Yongxian and Yongzhi, they have both moved out.”

That is to say, they are now two different small families, getting ready for a wedding celebration.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"We, these uncles of ours, can't take charge of everything. We are just here to help."

"Well, we just have to do things according to their own wishes,"

"Everlasting and Everwise are both very sensible. The two brothers each took out six taels of silver for the wedding preparations, asking our elders to follow this standard for the arrangements."

"So, as elders, we shouldn't differentiate between who is the eldest and who is the youngest. Everyone should be treated equally."

"Let's all follow the standard of six taels of silver, and treat everyone equally when handling the wedding arrangements. What do you think" Yang Huazhong asked.

Yang Huaming said, "I think what Third Brother said is feasible. They are both my nephews. In my eyes as their fourth uncle, I don't differentiate between them; they are all equally dear to me."

"Flesh and blood, that's what they are, and both of them paid their own way for the marriage."

"Don't let us elders give you a penny, be responsible,"

This is the end of a paragraph.

"Well then, let's just put our backs into it and get things done!" Yang Huazhong said.

Old Yang nodded, his gaze falling on Yang Ruqing. "Ruqing, what do you think about this"

Yang Ruqing smiled and said, "It doesn't really matter what I think. What matters is what big brother thinks."

Her gaze fell on Yang Yongxian, “Big brother, you are one of the parties involved in this happy event, don't you have a few words to say”

>

Yang Yongxian felt a little embarrassed, and her fair face flushed slightly.

He lightly coughed and said, "As long as I can follow customs and marry Li Xiu Xin properly, I will be content."

It's been two or three years since my father passed away, and mother is still the same.

The marriage of one's children should be the father who takes the lead in arranging.

Now that there's no father and mother is useless, and I'm young and don't understand these things.

Yang Yongxian felt very grateful that her grandfather and uncles could take care of things.

"Grandpa and the uncles can do whatever they think is best. I'm getting married, I'm happy."

"My younger brother is getting remarried too. I'm happy for him."

“Originally, I was the eldest brother. My father is gone, and my elder brother is like a father to me. It’s my responsibility to take care of my youngest brother's marriage.”

“But I am too young, my own tail hasn't even covered my behind yet, so I can only say that I am ashamed, ashamed. Grandfather and the uncles should make the decision!” he said again.

Hearing Yang Yongxian's words, Lao Yang was quite pleased.

“Yongxian, I am truly delighted that you think this way.” The old man said.

"Grandfather, in this life of mine, I have no other desire but for our Yang family to be harmonious and united. May we brothers be friends, support each other, and live in peace." he said.

"That's what you mean, then Yongjin and Yongzhi must also mean the same thing. The men of our Yang family are all upright and honorable!"

After praising Yang Yongxian and his brothers one by one, Lao Yang asked the crowd: "Now, tell me, on which day is the New Year's gift set"

Yang Huazhong said: “This requires finding a fortune teller to choose an auspicious day according to the Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine.”

Old Yang said, "Giving New Year's gifts takes one day, and a wedding takes another. For the two brothers, that adds up to four days."

“But to find four auspicious days within these fourteen days this year…that’s a bit difficult, isn’t it” Old Yang said.

Yang Ruqing said, "What if we do this instead."

"How are things Qing'er, what do you say" Lao Yang quickly shifted his gaze to Yang Ruqing and said.

Yang Ruqing cleared her throat, glanced at everyone, and said, “This year has been very busy. Not only does our Yang family have to prepare for a wedding, but we also have to get ready for the New Year.”

“Especially the family business, the fish pond, my grandfather’s pig farm over there… ”

“A lot of things, so every day this year, is very busy.”

"Instead of having everyone split up to handle the wedding and banquet separately, why don't we have Big Brother and Third Brother's weddings together on the same day" she said.

"Ah"

"What"

Lao Yang and the others were all surprised.

People's expressions were varied, and they all fell into their own thoughts.

After a moment, Yang Huaming was the first to voice his opinion: "I agree with Qing'er's suggestion. We can indeed pool our resources and have a good time."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

Lao Yang said, "The idea is not bad. We saved effort, and everyone who came to help also saved effort."

“Well, if it were at relatives or friends, they'd be giving double the gifts, and we wouldn’t have saved half the cost of the banquet. Yet, they would still only get to eat one banquet.”

>

"People wouldn't be willing to do that, would they That's just a losing deal!" Old Yang said.

Yang Huazhong and others nodded, it was true.

Yang Ruqing curled her lips and smiled, "It's nothing, we just compensated the relatives and friends who came to celebrate and gave double gifts."

"What should they compensate us with" Old Yang asked.

Yang Ruqing said: "Each household will receive compensation of 2.5 catties of pork belly. They can take the pork belly back home to cook for adults and children, or save it for the New Year. After all, it's almost the New Year, right Pork is very scarce these days!"
