Reborn and refused to support his younger brother Mo, but was chased by his ex-wife and sister

Chen Guotai also wanted to have a grand wedding this time. This was not only to satisfy Su Wanqing's vanity, but more importantly, to prove that he was living a good life.

After Chen Guotai was fired from the company some time ago, there were more or less gossips between the commune and the first team.

Especially among a large group of neighbors, the kind of gossip is unbearable.

Some called Chen Guotai a scumbag for abandoning Zhang Guihua and marrying the beautiful Su Wanqing.

Chen Guotai, who had some intuition, deserved it. He didn't cherish such a good job, nor did he cherish such a good girl. He actually went to find Su Wanqing, who didn't have a good reputation in the commune.

Chen Guotai thought that as long as his wedding banquet was big, as long as everyone was lively and his living conditions were good, then the gossip in the past would definitely disappear with the wind, and no one would dare to mention it anymore.

Although Chen Guotai has his own ideas, he is not a fool, nor will he follow Su Wanqing's advice.

The tables in rural areas are not big, they are all Eight Immortals tables, which can usually seat 8 people, and if they are more compact, they can seat 10 people.

Su Wanqing wants to add 10 more tables, which means 80 more people.

Adding 10 more tables means adding 30 meals a day. Not to mention that breakfast and dinner are simple meals, but the main meal at noon cannot be ambiguous.

Alcohol, meat, cigarettes, candies and everything else are indispensable.

This is a considerable cost.

Chen Guotai took out a notebook and wrote on it the names of the invitations he sent out and how many people were expected to come.

"Wan Qing, see if everyone can still sit if they squeeze in. If we add 10 more tables, will it be too empty? How can we add 80 people!"

"Why can't we add 80 people?"

"I also sent the invitation to my father."

"My father and his factory have thousands of people. Not all of them will come. Even if the senior leaders come, there will still be dozens of people."

"They are all from the city. On weekdays, they go to Jiangcheng County state-owned restaurants to eat. They make leather sofas. It is impossible for them to come over and squeeze everyone to eat together!"

When Chen Guotai heard what Su Wanqing said, he felt that it was indeed true.

One of the most important reasons why Chen Guotai was willing to marry Su Wanqing was that he also knew that Su Wanqing's father was currently the director of a food factory in Jiangcheng County.

The director of Jiangcheng County Food Factory is a powerful person.

In the future, you might be able to give yourself some help, such as transferring yourself to a food factory as an accountant, or arranging a job for yourself in the county, etc.

Since my father-in-law and his colleagues are coming over for a banquet, it’s a good relationship!

Then you must provide the most attentive service, so that when your father-in-law is happy, maybe he will see that your son-in-law still has some abilities, and he will be transferred to the city directly after getting married.

After understanding this, Chen Guotai immediately said: "No problem! If you add 10 tables, add 10 tables. I will tell Chef Zhang right away."

When the commune brigade holds banquets, some of them are cooked at home, but more often they ask the chefs and guys from the commune canteen to help with the banquets.

Ingredients can also be divided into half packages and full packages.

Chen Guotai's family doesn't grow much grain and doesn't raise many pigs, so they can't provide the ingredients themselves. They give the money to Chef Zhang, who arranges it according to the standards of each table.

Of course, Chef Zhang didn't earn the money alone. He just took the dead wages from the commune's kitchen. The money he took back was to be handed over to the commune.

When Chef Zhang heard Chen Guotai's arrangement, he was a little confused.

"I said Brother Chen, the number of people must be determined. We will prepare ingredients in the summer, but there is no way back. Don't tell me that there won't be so many people at that time and ask us to withdraw the ingredients."

"The weather is so hot, and the food went bad within two days of not eating. I have no way to return it! I have no way to explain to the leader when I go back."

Chen Guotai patted his chest and assured, "There is absolutely no problem with this! I, Chen Guotai, always speak my mind when I speak and do things."

Chef Zhang was still not at ease at all. He drafted a new contract and asked Chen Guotai to sign his name.

In fact, hosting banquets in rural areas is not called a contract, it is a simple agreement, or it is called an agreement to prevent someone from defaulting on the bill. That is, the public is justified and the mother-in-law is justified.

Now it is written very clearly in black and white. If there are not enough people at the banquet, it will still be calculated as 60 tables.

Chen Guotai not only filled in his name, but also paid 30% of the material preparation fee in advance.

With the money and agreement in hand, Chef Zhang immediately arranged for people to bring over extra tables and chairs, and quickly prepared the ingredients.

For this banquet, Chen Guotai provided cigarettes, wine, candies, peanuts, melon seeds, etc., and for the main meal at noon, he had to pay 8 yuan per table.

Counting morning and evening together (I usually eat leftovers from lunch in the evening), it still costs 10 yuan per table.

60 tables means 600 yuan per day. The last two days are cheaper if there are no formal seats and there are fewer people. There may be 30 tables, which costs 8 yuan per table, or 480 yuan.

This banquet will cost at least more than 1000 yuan.

Chen Guotai was originally an accountant. He made detailed calculations and found that as long as his father-in-law brought the workers over for a meal and showed them gifts, there should be no loss.

As long as you don't lose money, everything is fine.

Early the next morning, most of the relatives of the Chen family and the Su family came. According to commune custom, Su Wanqing was taken out of her home and sent to Chen Guotai's house.

Seeing so many lively people, Chen Guotai was filled with joy. He felt that his wife's calculations were more accurate. Table 60 must not have left at noon today.

Chen Guotai's father was not optimistic about Su Wanqing at first, but seeing everyone so lively and thinking that Su Wanqing was pregnant with the descendants of the Chen family, he still put a smile on his face.

After receiving relatives and worshiping ancestors, the bride was sent to Chen Guotai's house.

Then when the auspicious time comes around 11 o'clock and 12 o'clock, a respected person from the commune will act as the master of ceremony and simply announce that the two people are married, and then the banquet will begin.

Just as the two were preparing for the ceremony, relatives and friends kept giving Chen Guotai money or gifts.

There are not many gifts, ranging from 2 to 5 yuan, and some have 10 yuan.

The most common gift is some rice, flour, oil or pork.

There is no way to store pork in this weather, so hurry up and give it to the cook, and he can send less meat tomorrow.

But when relatives and friends give gifts, they will say one thing.

"Cathay is really sorry. I have something going on at home, so I won't eat here for lunch today."

Two people came up with this excuse, but Chen Guotai still managed it happily.

But when more than 20, [-] or more people were looking for this gift, Chen Guotai's face turned red.

There were originally expected to be more than 60 people, but now dozens of households have left. Doesn't that mean there are still about 10 tables left?

Losing money or making money at a banquet is secondary. For such a big event as a wedding, there are only a few tables or a dozen people joining in the fun. How does that sound!

Chen Guotai quickly asked Su Wanqing: "Wanqing, when will your father and the workers from their factory come?"
