Chapter 191
April 29th, the weather was sunny and gentle.
The old man who knows how to calculate dates carefully read it and said that today is a rare and auspicious day, suitable for getting married, breaking ground, and moving a house.
Early in the morning, the whole city was filled with a cheerful atmosphere. Everyone put on their best and brightest clothes and packed up neatly.
Except for the guards who cannot leave their posts and the places where people must be kept, all other work has stopped today in preparation for attending the largest wedding since the founding of Wangxiang City.
Although Xia Chen has not officially served as the city lord, he has always done the work of the city lord, and the city residents are also very convinced of him. The Xia family can be said to be the first family in Wangxiang City.
However, this family is very low-key. Brother Dong and Brother Nan are in the escort team, and their assessment results have always been top-notch. They are popular in the team and do not bully others or take credit.
The two women from the Xia family help sell groceries in the shop in their free time. They are also very kind to others and have no airs at all.
As the eldest son of their generation, Xia Chen's eldest brother was in charge of the farm work of the Xia family's fields. He had no hand in other administrative matters in the city.
Even Xia Chen's old father was responsible for raising horses. Although he earned more than ordinary physical work, it was not the most leisurely job.
The family kept such a low profile that those who wanted to find a way out through the back door were too embarrassed to speak up. From top to bottom, the atmosphere was clean and upright, and no one dared to embezzle, accept bribes or commit fraud under Xia Chen.
Even when Mr. Xia celebrated his birthday last year, he only invited his relatives and friends for a meal. Xia Chen's people and some city residents who were grateful to them spontaneously wanted to give gifts, but they couldn't give them out.
Originally, Xia Chen didn't want to make this wedding ceremony a grand affair, so he planned to just invite relatives and friends.
But his mother raised a rare objection. In the words of the old lady, entering into a contract was a lifelong event. Even if Xia Chen was not the city lord, but just the young master of the Xia family, when he got married, she and the old man planned to have a marriage. A place with running water seats.
Qiao Niang also pulled Xia Chen and told him secretly that things like entering into a contract should not be taken lightly. The scene was too small. What if Zi Jian felt that the Xia family did not value him?
Xia Chen thought about it. Which bride doesn't want a grand wedding? Their marriage ceremony is no different from the wedding. Since they want to form a contract with Zijian, they shouldn't treat him badly. He will give whatever others have. he.
So Xia Chen made some plans and issued an announcement in advance. On the day they formed the contract, everyone except the guards would not have to work, and their wages would be paid as usual. The guards participating in the patrol would receive five times their salary on that day.
The Xia family held a flowing banquet, and all the city residents could come to participate. He invited the master chef of the cafeteria to prepare the banquet, with chicken, duck, fish, meat, vegetables and fruits.
