Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife novel Chapter 695

Since no one objected, Aunt Lin said, "Then, let’s settle the dowry matter as in-laws said. How many tables do in-laws need for the wedding banquet?"

Hearing this question, Mother Liu glanced at her husband. Father Liu has already calculated their family members from his own family and Mother Liu’s family.

Since most of their families live in other villages and towns, they only visit each other during weddings. So, this time, they planned to invite everyone.

"In-laws, can you give us twenty tables?" he asked. _{frёewebηovel.cѳm}

As soon as he finished speaking, Aunt Lin and Aunt Su looked at each other with surprise in their eyes. One table can accommodate 10 people. They never expected that the Liu family would have so many guests.

Normally, the bride’s family only requests a maximum of five tables. Twenty tables is equivalent to 200 people, which requires a lot of food and drinks. Not to mention the recent increase in food prices, even if you have money, you may not be able to buy it due to food shortage.

Seeing their hesitation, Father Liu added, "In-laws, if that doesn’t work, how about ten tables?"

The Liu family is large, with ten tables only elders and adults can be invited. As for children and junior generations, they will not be invited at all.

This matter depends on Xiao Li. So, Aunt Lin turned to look at him and asked in a low voice, "Ah Li, what do you think?"

Hearing her ask this, Xiao Li knew that it was Lu Jueyu who was organizing the wedding banquet. So, he asked her, "Sister-in-law, do you think it’s possible?"

Lu Jueyu pretended to hesitate and thought for a long time, making Xiao Li and others look at her with a hint of anxiety.

After a long time, she finally nodded and said, "Brother Xiao, it is not impossible to prepare twenty tables for the bride’s family. However, the dishes on the guests’ table will not be the same as those on the groom’s and bride’s tables."

"We can buy cheap things in bulk, instead of buying expensive things in small quantities. This way, we can prepare more dishes with the same amount of budget. We can prepare it this way if everyone agrees," she added.

After listening to her words, Mother Liu nodded and asked, "Niece Lu, what dishes are you going to prepare for the guests?"

It’s normal for the bride’s family to worry about the wedding reception. After all, if the banquet is too shabby, not only the groom’s family but also the bride’s family will be embarrassed. One might even think that the bride is looked down upon and unwelcome by her husband’s family.

So, Lu Jueyu explained with a smile, "Aunt Liu, for the guests’ table, we are going to prepare a plate of snacks before the meal. For the banquet, we will provide three vegetarian dishes, two meat dishes, one soup, and one plate of fruit as dessert."

"As for the dishes, it all depends on the ingredients we can buy. If you have any dishes you want or any ingredients you don’t want to use, you can tell us in advance and we will rearrange the menu according to your requirements," she added.

This was a normal way to prepare for a wedding banquet in Lu Jueyu’s previous life because guests might be allergic to certain foods. So, if the bride or groom’s family has any request, they will accommodate it.

Thinking of her daughter’s engagement story, Mother Liu became uneasy and said, "It won’t be, right? Ah Li has loved our daughter for so many years. He will never cancel the engagement."

"He won’t, but what about our daughter? It’s not like you don’t know her temper. If they quarrel, she might cancel out of anger," Father Liu said.

"That’s true." Mother Liu nodded.

Under her husband’s persuasion, although Mother Liu was reluctant to let go of her daughter, she finally nodded.

After obtaining his wife’s consent, Father Liu returned the note to Aunt Lin and said, "In-laws, May 1st is a good day. Let’s hold the wedding on this day."

As soon as he finished speaking, Aunt Lin and Aunt Su were stunned. There are only four days until May 1st. They had no memory of writing the date.

Turning to look at Xiao Li, they saw that he was grinning like a cat who had successfully stolen a fish, and then they realized that he had added the date without them realizing.

Since they said they picked the date, they could only bite the bullet and accept their fate. They just hope there are enough people to help them prepare for the wedding. Four days before the wedding day equals three days of wedding preparation time ah!
