Zhou Chunmei was obsessed with the fragrance for a long time, but she didn't have the courage to go to Lejia for a stroll. Not to mention how depressed she was, she could only wait for the next day.
For Mr. Liu and others, the day passed quickly, just eating and drinking. In the evening, people in Lejia smelled the intoxicating aroma of wine coming from upstairs.
Time flies too fast. After a sleep, one night becomes yesterday, and July 9th is here.
This day is Jiudao’s fair day. Villagers in Meizijing Village who need to go to the market set out early to do business on the streets. Those who don’t need to go to the market do whatever they need to do. Those who plan to go to Lejia for a drink just wait. Go when the time comes.
Le’s dad went to the street at 5:30 in the morning and brought back some watermelon, cantaloupe, celery and bean sprouts for lunch.
Brother Zhou accompanied his mother to Lejia for dinner in the morning. Village chief Zhou, Liu Lu and his wife, Zhang Poluo and his wife, Chen Dalian and his wife, and brothers Cheng Youde, also had breakfast at Lejia.
In addition to the necessary breakfast items, there is also a bowl of pork blood soup dumplings, which is specially designed to cleanse the lungs of dust and smoke.
After tasting it, even Mr. Yan, who hates eating pig blood the most, secretly praised it. Zhang Poluo and others often inhale dust when working all year round. I heard that pig blood can clear lung dust. , and ran to scrape out the remaining pig blood in the pot.
After breakfast, Grandma Zhou went home to pack the gifts. Brother Zhou, Village Chief Zhou and others went to work in a hurry. They slaughtered seven or eight chickens and processed them and gave them to Xiao Lele to make soup. They then made buckles. Meat, vegetables for lunch, washing and steaming rice, cooking sweet rice wine, etc.
The handsome guys helped pick and wash vegetables in the garden. Sister-in-law Liu and others cut the vegetables and put them on plates and bowls. They also took out the vegetables cooked yesterday, put them on plates and bowls and put them on the steamer.
Old Mrs. Chao and Mrs. Wang, Professor Wan Qi, Chao Er, his wife and Le’s father went upstairs to set up tables and chairs. After getting up in the morning, the handsome boys’ belongings and mats were packed up and put into the grain warehouse. Mop the floor to avoid leaving any body odor.
There is a living room in the two side rooms. There is a dried fruit plate on each table. There is a large electric fan in the side room. There are two in the living room. The tea buckets, tea bowls, trays, etc. are also moved to the kitchen on the second floor. .
There are also four tables in the main room on the first floor, six tables in the living room on the second floor, and four tables in each side room. For guests who budget for 19 tables, the third table is for helpers and handsome guys. Of course, Lejia has many Dishes were prepared just in case, and the handsome guys also moved the wine and coconut juice that would be used at the banquet to various places.
After that, a table and chairs were placed on one side of the door under the awning in front of Lejia’s house, to avoid disturbing little Leshan’s sleep. The table for receiving gifts was placed in front of Leyun. At the other end of the bedroom, it is also convenient for guests to enter the Lejia main room directly after paying homage.
Beside the table where gifts are collected and accounted for, there is also a table for those who are greeting guests or helping to return gifts. Cigarettes and melon seeds are also placed in place, and all the gifts to be distributed are moved outside and stacked. The baskets needed to receive gifts from guests are also prepared and placed under the eaves.
Everything is ready. The old lady and the young people go to change clothes. The ladies all wear long skirts, their hair is pulled into a bun, and they wear hairpins.She only had one or two hairpins and no elaborate makeup, just a light lipstick and moisturizing cream, which was light and pleasant, with an elegant temperament.
Professor Wan Qi and the handsome young men all wore white shirts and black trousers. Some of the handsome men also carried men's backpacks.
Which station should the handsome guys who dressed up a little look like they have luminous bodies or sparkling luminous bodies, so that when Village Chief Zhou and others saw them, they no longer dared to let them go? They set foot in the back of the house to avoid getting caught in the fumes and dazzling their titanium dog eyes, which would interfere with their work.
Handsome guys don’t have to do anything, they just need to be beautiful.
Professor Wan Qi walked around in a circle with his hands behind his back, assigning tasks to the handsome guys. When the guests arrived, he let them shine in the main room on the first floor and the second floor to make the guests feel at home.
Yan Xing and Liu Shao ran away immediately. Liu Xiangyang shouted as he ran, "Professor Wanqi, Xiao Xingxing and I have work today. We are the little beauty's deputies."
The two young colonels escaped. Professor Wanqi stared at the He family brothers Xiao Shaoluo and his grandson who also wanted to run away. The two of you don't want to do the light work and have to serve the dishes in the end. You can do the light work of greeting the guests first, serving tea and pouring water."
The six handsome guys burst into tears secretly and asked them not to use them as vases. Ah, they would rather serve the plate than stand there as a vase for others to look at.
Wang Ruichen asked the same sentence without giving up, "Grandpa, Brother Bo is with us, right?"
"Don't think about cheating, Xiao Chao will be responsible for following Chao later." Pass a cigarette or something next to you."
"Okay." Wang Ruichen instantly regained his balance. Brother Bo is also a vase. With Brother Bo and Zhuyu in front of him, no one will see them again. There are so many surprises, don’t be afraid.
Professor Wanqi asked the handsome guys to use them as vases. Old Mrs. Chao smiled like a flower. After laughing enough, she persuaded Mrs. Wang to take little Lele to change clothes, forcing her to change into a dress. Wear the most beautiful dress that shows your fairy spirit.
While Mrs. Chao and others were preparing to welcome the guests, someone was on their way to Jiudao Township. Similarly, Boss Wu and his family also went out for a walk in the morning and went home to collect gifts and prepare for departure.
Before half past eight, the guests arrived.
The first guest was Cheng Youde's father, Cheng Wu. Cheng Youde and his wife were helping out at the Le's house. He happily carried a basket with glutinous rice on one end and eggs on the other.
Seeing the guests arriving, Village Chief Zhou immediately went to work. He was responsible for being the secretary and remembering the kindness of others. Liu Lu and Cheng Youliang were responsible for returning gifts.
Chao Er and his wife quickly stood aside, took a pack of cigarettes and opened them. Chao Yufu and Chao Yubo accompanied Xiao Lele, preparing to hand melon seeds and tea or something.
Cheng Wu walked to the road outside Lejia and saw a group of smiling people. He quickly walked under the awning and gave the basket to his nephew and the red envelope to Village Chief Zhou. He smiled and joked, "You It's Xiao Leshan's little grandpa, why is he still sitting at the door and acting as a secretary? My family doesn't have to return the gift."
"I'm happy. Yueqing is my nephew and my niece-in-law, and Leshan is my grand-nephew and my grandson. I like it in my heart. "Village Chief Zhou was very happy and wrote down the amount of money and gifts with a smile.
Second Master Chao hurriedly stepped forward to hand the cigarettes to Father Cheng and lit them himself.
Chao Yubo handed melon seeds to Father Cheng.
Cheng Wu narrowed his eyes and told everyone not to greet him.
Professor Wan Qi was a man. , he was mainly responsible for entertaining the male guests and talking to Father Cheng.
Cheng Wu said there was no need to return gifts, so Cheng Youliang and Liu Lu poured the glutinous rice from the basket into the basket and moved the eggs to the other. In the basket, two baskets were put together and a note with his name was placed in one corner.
Cheng Wu knew that an old professor was at Lejia, so he went to Lejia early to chat with others. Others were not there yet. When the meeting came, Liu Chengyouliang went to the back of the house to help.
At nine o'clock, the villagers rushed to Le's house one after another. The handsome guys went to work, and Young Master Yan and Young Master Liu went to the back of the house. Young Master Xiao waited for the second time. Lou is responsible for pouring tea and inviting people to sit down. Since there are enough people in the kitchen behind the Le family house, Sister-in-law Liu and Sister-in-law Hu also go to help receive gifts in return.
In rural areas, women usually go to the banquet for giving birth to children. , most of the people who came to Lejia were women, and only a few men came to have a banquet because the women were not at home.
When they walked under the awning of Lejia, they saw the handsome Zhong. The handsome young man and the beautiful woman, the bright and sunny beauties and the pretty and delicate young man who is more beautiful than the stars, were dazzled by the warm smiling faces, and felt a little lost. When they walked into the door of Lejia, they felt noble again. The middle-aged and elderly beautiful woman greeted her with a smile, and went up to the second floor. Well, there was another handsome young man. The villagers were stunned by the beauty.
The guests came one after another. Those who don't get eggs or chickens are given a gift. Generally, those who get chickens and eggs don't give another gift. Those who don't get chickens and eggs are given another gift. Some even give eggs and glutinous rice. < /p>
The wine gift for giving birth to a baby is relatively small, about 100 if you don’t get a native chicken. Some people get eggs and a 680 or 10, which is very meaningful. Only the close relatives of the baby get big red envelopes.
When it was almost ten o'clock, people with the same surname Zhou also formed a team as if they had made an appointment.
Before ten and thirty, most of the villagers came to the second floor. The living room and one side room are full of tables and chairs, and the other room is about to be full, and the first floor is also filled with more than a table of guests.
It matters whether you sit on the first floor or the second floor. The first floor is for the children's relatives, elders and the elderly people with whom they have the best relationship. A few elders named Zhou who are very close to Brother Zhou can sit on the first floor.
The handsome guys serve the new guests. After tea, He Xiaoliu took a call and rushed downstairs. He ran out along the village road, almost rushed out of the village in one breath, and stood at the intersection to look around.
It was Jiudao that day. On Wei day, because the weather was too hot, most of the people going to the market had left the market early, and there were relatively few people still wandering around. However, most of the people doing business had not left yet, and sun umbrellas were on the streets.Line up.
He Xiaoliu looked and looked for a long time, and finally saw a taxi approaching from a distance on the road among the sun umbrellas. It first slowed down and then went straight in his direction. He parked the car less than half a meter away and opened the door. He saw Mr. Li and his fifteenth brother getting out of the car. Even if they were wearing sunglasses, they couldn't hide their handsome faces.
"Brother Fifteen, Mr. Li, you are finally here. If you are later, you will miss the meal." Seeing his brother and Mr. Li, He Mingxin rushed over with cheers.
"Xiao Shiliu, have you caused trouble to the little doctor's family?" Seeing the youngest brother's joyful look, He Mingzhi's eyes twitched. The elders were not afraid of anything but their little brother. The Sixteenth Demon King lost his temper and started playing pranks.
"No, I'm doing my job, and I'm always with Wanqi Rui, Ye Luo Ziqing and the others. I'm not the one who makes the most noise. Chao Xiaoer jumps around the little doctor every day."
< p>Shao Li was carrying his luggage and when he heard He Xiaoliu say something bad about Miss Chao Er, the muscles on his face jumped with laughter, "He Xiaoliu, are you jealous of Brother Bo's sister?""Humph." He Mingxin rolled his eyes, how could he not be jealous? Chao Xiaoer took advantage of the little doctor every day. The girl always tasted the delicious food the little loli made, so the little loli didn't yell. Chao Xiaoer.
He Xiaoshiwu and Mr. Li stopped laughing at He Xiaoliu and went straight to Lejia with his luggage.
