Capítulo 855: Chapter 352: Preparations (Part 3)
Su Mo wanted to say, “Xu Xing” literally means “walking slowly,” so there’s no need for the preceding words.
Of course, he didn’t actually say that out loud.
Meanwhile, Wei Ziyi had been inexplicably looking for Yang Xiaoyun for chit-chats during this period.
No one knew what these two women were whispering about every day.
Su Mo was so busy that he barely had time to think about it, but he did notice that Wei Ziyi occasionally gave him a look that felt slightly different.
His relationship with Yang Xiaoyun had only grown stronger, like sisters. If not for her obligations with the Luofeng Alliance, Su Mo guessed the two women would probably want to hang out together every day.
This left Su Mo wondering whether he was marrying Yang Xiaoyun or Wei Ziyi.
However, with the help of the Luofeng Alliance, many things became simpler.
They cleared the streets, cleaned up, arranged the tables and benches for the banquet, and to enhance the festive atmosphere, the Luofeng Alliance gave each household in Luoxia City red silk to hang on their doors before the big day.
The entire city was bathed in celebratory colors.
This was partly due to the close relationship between Su Mo and the Luofeng Alliance.
Secondly, Su Mo was the top expert of Donghuang and came from Luoxia City. His achievements invited the top experts from Donghuang to the wedding banquet, and the Luofeng Alliance took great pride in this.
The majority of the townsfolk were just there for the spectacle, mostly waiting to enjoy the feast.
However, in case of a funeral at one’s home during this period, that took precedence.
You couldn’t expect someone who had just lost a relative to participate in celebrations; that wouldn’t be appropriate.
As long as there was no funeral on the big day itself, it would be fine.
Once that was sorted out, they had to deal with finding cooks for the banquet.
The Luofeng Alliance didn’t need to get involved in this part.
Rumor had it that any reputable restaurant in Luoxia City jumped at the chance to cook for the wedding of the top expert of Donghuang.
Eventually, they began fiercely competing for the head chef position.
It was understandable.
As they say, “a snake without a head cannot move,” and with so many cooks, there needed to be someone in charge.
Although Uncle Fu was experienced and knowledgeable, he couldn’t manage every detail of the wedding feast all by himself.
The chefs were all unwilling to yield to one another, so what to do? They decided to hold a culinary competition to select the head chef.
Even though it sounded a bit unreliable, for some reason, everyone was enthusiastic about it.
Even Wei Ruhan expressed interest in attending, not for other reasons but to taste some gourmet dishes, which he was more than happy to do.
So they cleared an area and allowed three days for the head chef selection process.
As the groom, Su Mo, along with Yang Xiaoyun, participated in the feast and finally selected a master chef to lead the other cooks and shine on the big day.
After choosing the cooks, it was time for procurement.
However, this wasn’t something that could be done in advance.
Instead, orders needed to be placed ahead of time, and the ingredients would be delivered before the big day.
This feast was expected to cover the city’s entire alleys, allowing people to eat and drink anywhere they went.
That was certainly no easy task.
Luoxia City, being by the sea, had its seafood fully handled by the Luofeng Alliance, ensuring everything was fresh.
On land, supplies were sent from Zhongfu City, Jinyang City, and Tianyu City to Luoxia City.
Amusingly, someone even suggested using the Ziyang Escort Agency to safeguard the deliveries.
However, the Ziyang Escort Agency was already busy decorating, arranging seats, planning the bridal procession, and allocating manpower, leaving them no time for that.
That said, even without escorts, no one would dare steal from deliveries meant for Su Mo’s wedding.
That would be like pulling a tiger’s whiskers; truly, a death wish.
At this moment, people from the Heavenly Blade Sect and Wusheng Hall who lived nearby also arrived.
Nangong Yu, the Sect Leader of the Heavenly Blade Sect, who hadn’t set foot in Jianghu for many years, came in person this time. The Luofeng Alliance naturally extended a warm welcome.
From Wusheng Hall came Wan Cangxin.
Wan Yutang felt too ashamed to face everyone, so he didn’t come.
Accompanying Wan Cangxin was Wan Yilan.
When everyone met, it naturally turned into quite a lively scene.
Old Hu came back with them as well.
These two groups didn’t treat themselves as outsiders at all and, after discussing with Hua Qianyu, decided to join forces as security.
On the big day, chaos was expected as people from various factions, sects, and schools of thought would gather.
Involving so many people, if nothing went wrong, it would surprise everyone given the potential for confusion.
Thus, someone had to manage the scene.
In the Southwest, naturally, these three families took the lead, and together they would maintain order. It seemed unlikely anyone would dare to cause trouble under such circumstances.
Especially with the people from the Heavenly Blade Sect around; they looked as if they would cut you down even if you didn’t provoke them, let alone if someone got drunk and acted rowdy.
Truly intimidating.
Countless tasks and a multitude of things to handle, but overall, although busy, it was fulfilling.
Days passed by like this.
Before they knew it, a month had almost gone by.
As the day approached, Su Mo, who had been so busy he barely kept his feet on the ground, suddenly found himself with nothing to do.
It seemed like everything had been done.
A few days prior, he had already tried on the wedding outfit, and there were no issues.
So he spent his days idly sitting around with Yang Xiaoyun.
Or he would go to the backyard and share puzzled looks with Yang Yizhi and the others.
Hard to believe that he was actually getting married?
In his past life, he had some achievements but remained single.
In this life, in the blink of an eye, he’s about to start a family and career.
Thinking about how, in a few days, he’d be someone else’s husband.
Suddenly, his heart was both eager and somewhat worried.
Taking on a role he never had before always brought a sense of nervousness, unsure if he could fulfill it.
