Lu Jueyu pretended to think for a moment before she said, "For now, we have prepared enough ingredients to host 30 tables. Aunt, you can tell us how many tables you want, and we will prepare it for your family."
When the Pan family heard this, they looked at her with surprise. But thinking that Xie Village was too far from here, they couldn’t invite anyone even if they wanted to.
Noticing their hesitation, Lu Jueyu asked, "Aunt, I was thinking that since Xie Village is too far from the capital, how about we hold a wedding banquet once in the capital and another in the village?"
"This way, your family can invite relatives and friends to attend the wedding too. My second brother-in-law can also meet the relatives."
The moment she finished her words, everyone was surprised, except for Dong Li and Li Chenmo.
"Jueyu, won’t that be too troublesome? It’s alright to have a banquet once in the village," Pan Meijia said.
Hearing her words, Father Pan nodded and added, "Jiajia is right. Not to mention anything else, just the amount of money needed to hold the banquet will be too much."
Lu Jueyu smiled when she heard this and said, "Uncle, you and your family don’t have to worry about the banquet. We have a friend who works at the train station."
"We can ask him to help us send the ingredients over from Xie village. Most of the ingredients were grown by ourselves or sourced from the mountain, so we only need to pay for the shipping cost."
When Father Li heard this, he nodded and added, "In-laws, just let us know how many tables you need, and we will prepare the ingredients. It’s just that we might need to hold the banquet in the next few days since we only took half a month of leave."
After hearing what they said, Pan Chiyan thought for a moment before he said, "Father, Mother, I think it’s feasible. Our family has a lot of friends and relatives. We should invite them for a meal to celebrate Jiajia’s wedding."
"Since our in-laws agree, let’s just hold a banquet here," Pan Chimu agreed with his brother.
Even though their family was not as influential as the Xiao family, they still had connections in the government and military. If their only daughter marries and they don’t invite everyone for a meal, it would affect their family’s reputation.
While Pan Chiyan and Pan Chimu didn’t want to use their sister’s wedding to boost their career prospects, it was an unavoidable matter.
Since it’s unavoidable, then they should use this wedding banquet to let everyone know that the Pan family’s daughter married well.
Even if their son-in-law was a villager, they were able to provide their daughter with a good life. Additionally, they could use this banquet to explain where they got so many vegetables and fruits.
Since both of them could think about this matter, Father Pan could as well. So, after he considered the pros and cons, he finally said, "In-laws, we will be troubling you with this matter then."
