This soup was used to cook processed pig heart, pig blood, small intestine, pig stomach, and pig liver. Chopped garlic sprouts, shallots, and ginger pieces were added to cook a large bowl of delicious and rich hodgepodge.
Qiao Xuan processed every piece very carefully and even washed them with flour. She put in a lot of rice wine, star anises, gingers, pepper so there was no strange smell in the end.
The wild boar was so large, and the inner organs could not be finished in just one dinner. So, Qiao Xuan asked Ms. Xu to cut them into slices, deep-fry them and stew with chilis so that a jar of chili sauce could be preserved for eight or ten days.
There was one big pig head that was roasted over fire, and dried in the shadow for future braising.
Early the next morning, the first section of the Shao Family got very busy.
Ms. Fang had everything arranged neatly, so things went on smoothly.
Qiao Xuan's job was to help Ms. Fang in receiving relatives and getting to know them, whilst checking and urging those helpers from the second and third section of the family to work harder in case they mess things up.
Qiao Xuan was pleased with the task and nodded happily.
Qiao Xuan did not allow Liu Yan to show up on wedding day. She was ordered to stay in the wing-room.
A lot of helpers were asked to give a helping hand at the wedding, so they had plenty of labor forces. Liu Yan was a ticking bomb that should not show up in public.
Liu Yan was very interested in watching the wedding of a village, but Qiao Xuan did not allow her to do so, and she did not dare to counter the order.
She had already understood what Second Miss could do, so she did not object.
Second Miss did not even need to do anything about her personally. All she would do was to throw her to the second section of the family, and she would be engulfed in endless misery.
Dressed in a red robe, Shao Sanlang the groom, smiled stupidly. He went to the Yang Family to fetch his bride. He was riding on the donkey, surrounded by the reception team.
Shao Dalang, Shao Yunduan, Shao Xiaoqi as well as the sons from the second section of the family and young men from the village all tagged along.
Shao Liulang did not show up. According to Third Uncle, he was working very hard in college and should not be distracted. After all, he had made plenty of progress and did not want to be disturbed.
Eldest Uncle understood it completely. Being able to read was very important, because it was related to what the future would look like for them.
Ms. Fang snorted and rolled her eyes.
It was just an excuse. It did not take much effort to attend a wedding. Even the Emperor was not as busy as he was.
He must feel humiliated to come over.
Yunduan was already a Cultivated Talent, yet he was nothing more than a disciple. He was afraid of being compared.
He would have still come over, if Yunduan's wife was not the daughter of the County Magistrate.
Ms. Fang thought that her husband was so stupid that believed what Third Uncle said.
Yang Xiaoni's wedding gown was delivered by a messenger from Ms. Fang's side. It was delivered directly to Third Grandma Yang's home, so she could help Yang Xiaoni get dressed on the wedding day.
When Third Grandma Yang, together with some relatives, brought the gown to her home, Ms. Tian's face sank.
Ms. Tian knew clearly that she was the one that they were trying to hide from.
Yang Xiaoni was finally moving out of home as a bride, with the help of Third Grandma Yang and the other relatives.
But Ms. Tian kept crying loudly.
She kept saying that she and her husband had spent so much effort in raising Yang Xiaoni and helped her get married by finding a good family. Her point was that Yang Xiaoni should come home often enough to visit her brother and sister-in-law.
