Chapter 63 - 063. Confused, Doubtful
No wonder they say that many hands make light work!
In just under half an hour, a group of people skillfully sorted the chaotic mix of flowers. They kept the blossoms where necessary and the petals where needed. For plants like ivy, where only the stem had medicinal value, they swiftly removed the flowers and leaves, keeping only the usable stem.
The unusable parts were placed in large wicker baskets, and Lian Hai and Ning Jianshe took turns carrying them with a yoke to the village compost heap.
They made sure to use every bit of these flowers, determined not to give any busybodies room to gossip about them wasting resources for the brother’s wedding.
They didn’t want to wear the hat of destroying socialist flowers recklessly!
After tidying up the flowers, the men busily helped to rearrange tables, chairs, dishes, and bowls. Su Hongying, Lian Yue, and Qiu Fang swept the floors and cleaned the stove. They tidied up the three rooms that had become a bit messy from hosting guests during the ceremony, making them spotless once again.
After finishing the chores, the family members from both sides thought about making a graceful exit, lest they overstay and impede the newlyweds’ alone time, risking rejection.
