Go back to 1980 and enjoy it

morning.

Two to three hundred people gathered in front of Deng Shirong's house, and some of them were building a row of temporary stoves with mud bricks. After all, sixty or seventy tables would be opened at the same time tomorrow, and the kitchen of Deng Shirong's house alone would definitely be too busy. of.

There are also some people who are building a stage for the county troupe to perform plays.

The rest of the people helped chop wood and carried tables and stools.

These tables and stools were not borrowed from the village, but the students’ desks and stools were moved directly from the school.

In later generations, the clan specially purchased hundreds of tables, chairs, bowls, chopsticks, etc., and placed them in Azu's hall. Anyone who wanted to hold a happy event could just use them directly. It can be said to be very convenient.

But in this day and age, let alone the clan not having this condition, even if it does, there is no need to do this.

Because nowadays, whether it is a wedding banquet or a full moon banquet, most families just invite a few tables. It can be said that there are very few families that entertain more than ten tables, so when you have a banquet, ask your neighbors to borrow tables, chairs, bowls and chopsticks. That's OK. There's no need to buy so many tables and chairs.

This time Deng Yunheng was admitted to Peking University, and the family paid for the celebration. There were sixty or seventy tables at the opening, which can be said to have broken the banquet record in the entire Shuangwang Realm.

There are so many tables and chairs. It is troublesome to borrow them from the villagers. It is most suitable to move the tables and stools directly from the school. It happens that the tables and stools used by students now are double ones. The kind where students can sleep on them will be returned when they are used up. That’s it.

In Deng Shirong's impression, this practice was the most popular in the 1990s. At that time, when any family in the village was holding a wedding, as long as it was summer or winter vacation, they would go to the school to carry tables and stools. Even in the early 21st century, it was still That’s it.

It wasn't until the clan paid for hundreds of desks and chairs that the school's desks and chairs finally settled down.

It is true that there is strength in numbers. In one morning, the villagers completed the preliminary preparations.

At noon, Captain Zhou brought more than a dozen members with rich performance experience to Naye Village. Looking at the hardened ground and the row of conspicuous blue brick and large tiled houses in front of them, all the members of the county troupe showed surprise. expression.

Obviously, the conditions of this year's city's liberal arts champions were a little beyond their expectations.

Deng Shirong immediately went up to greet them and said hello with a smile: "Captain Zhou, you have worked hard all the way. Welcome to your arrival."

Captain Zhou reached out to shake his hand and said with a smile on his face: "It's not hard, Comrade Deng, you can do it at this speed. Even the stage has been set up."

"It was all built with the help of young people from our village."

At this point, Deng Shirong stretched out his hand and said, "Captain Zhou, please bring your luggage in and put it away first. The room has been reserved for you guys and the food has been prepared. You can go out for lunch after you put your luggage away." !”

"OK, all right!"

Deng Shirong had just arranged for a group of people from the county theater troupe, and his father-in-law and mother-in-law also came with their children.

In the afternoon, the third sister's family, the two brothers-in-law's family, Zhang Xiuping's eldest brother, sister-in-law and second brother and sister-in-law also arrived one after another.

All day today, I have been doing various preparations.

…

The next day.

Early in the morning, hundreds of people from Naye Village gathered at Deng Shirong's house and got busy.

Generally, when hosting a banquet in rural areas, the pigs are slaughtered in the afternoon the day before. However, this time there were so many people helping out that there was no need to kill the pigs in advance. We just killed them and cooked them again this morning. The taste will be better. Fresh.

The same goes for chicken and duck, all of which are freshly cooked this morning.

Various vegetarian dishes are also picked by each family spontaneously from home. No matter what vegetables are selected, washed or cut, there are many people rushing to make them.

Deng Shirong took control of the whole place and arranged for the villagers to help in an orderly manner. At the same time, he also received extra guests like Bu Wanhui.

Near noon, each family of Deng clan members from other villages sent a representative to attend this grand celebration. Needless to say, Nana village, the whole village mobilized and gathered at Deng Shirong's house.

Fortunately, the open space in front of Deng Shirong's house is large enough. If it were other houses in the village, there really wouldn't be such a big place to open sixty or seventy tables at once.

Before the meal started, Deng Shirong stood on the stage set up yesterday and said a few words, mainly expressing his welcome to relatives and friends, and expressing his gratitude to the clan for their support.

Then the secretary of the brigade also went up and said a few words, mainly expressing the clan's concern and expectations for Deng Yunheng.

Finally, the protagonist Deng Yunheng also came on stage to say a few words and express his gratitude.

I won’t go into detail one by one, lest the villagers who are waiting for food get impatient...

At twelve o'clock at noon, sixty-six tables started eating at the same time.

Six of the tables were inside the house, and the remaining sixty tables were on the floor outside the door.

The long table in Deng Shirong's house was used to entertain distinguished guests. At the same table with him were the director of the credit union, more than a dozen members of the county theater troupe, cadres of the brigade and production team, senior elders in the village, and people like him. A relatively prestigious villager like Deng Yungui.

Originally, Deng Shirong wanted to arrange for his in-laws to be here as well, but they refused. They sat at the same table as their own family and ate at ease.

When the meal started, Bu Wanhui picked up the wine and said: "Uncle Jiu, I want to toast you. I want to learn from you when it comes to educating children. The academic performance of those in my family is not good, let alone university, even in middle school." I have no hope of getting into the junior college, it really gives me a headache!”

Deng Shirong picked up the wine and touched it with him, and said with a smile: "Director, you are too polite. I am actually a layman in this regard. I am not afraid of your jokes. I always set good standards for them. As long as they can meet the requirements, I will give them directly." They award money.

This method of directly using money to encourage children to study is actually not advisable, but I really have no other way, so I can only try this method. "

Bu Wanhui was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then he laughed and said: "Uncle Jiu, you don't have to be humble. Didn't the great man say that, no matter it is a white cat or a black cat, the one that can catch mice is a good cat, no matter what Uncle Jiu you use Whatever education method can teach a son to be admitted to Peking University, that is the best education method.”

Everyone present did not expect that Deng Shirong actually used this method to teach a son of Peking University. While everyone agreed with Bu Wanhui's statement, they were also secretly thinking about whether they should try this when they return home. Educational methods?

If you don’t expect your children to be admitted to Peking University like Deng Yunheng, but if they can be admitted to a technical secondary school, then it will all be worth it.

After lunch and a short rest for half an hour, the much-anticipated drama "The Legend of White Snake" officially started!
