The city folks' weddings really gave the local elders a good show.
The taste of the banquet dishes was fine, but the portions were pitifully small—such a large plate would be gone in a few bites. Luckily, there were twenty-six dishes. Otherwise, those with bigger appetites would have left hungry.
Zhou Tai hardly ate. He had no appetite, attending Zhang Tiezhu's wedding just to meet Li Huai. But with the banquet nearly over and Li Huai yet to show, he was in no mood to eat. Besides, sitting among a bunch of country bumpkins was making him queasy.
Eventually, Zhou Tai couldn't hold back anymore and approached Zhang Tiezhu, asking, "Tiezhu, isn't Mr. Li coming?"
