Started as a thatched house and ended up as a female figure

In a corner a little away from Cheng Wan's house, a middle-aged man who looked like a butler was earnestly persuading an angry Jiang Shidu.

"My young master, let's go back quickly. Madam is very angry when she knows you came here secretly, and she says she wants to lock you up again.

Be obedient. Let’s go back and admit our mistake to the madam first, and we’ll talk about the rest later, okay? "

"I'm not wrong!

I just came to give a gift to my benefactor. Why should mother be angry? !

And I didn’t come here secretly, I came here openly! "

The middle-aged man quickly put his index finger in front of his lips, "Master, lower your voice!

Young Master, regardless of whether I am wrong or not, please go back with me first.

Your gift to your benefactor has been delivered, is it possible that you still want to stay here and wait for dinner?

You are not familiar with them, and it will be awkward for you to be alone.

Do you think so? "

Jiang Shidu looked confused, "But I haven't visited my benefactor's new home yet, and even if I want to leave, I still have to say hello to my benefactor, right?"

When the middle-aged man saw that he had a way out, he quickly winked at a young boy and said, "Go and tell the young master's benefactor that our young master has something urgent at home and go back first."

Turning his head, the middle-aged man bent down to Jiang Shidu in a gesture of invitation, "Master, let's go back."

Jiang Shidu glanced at the bustling house inside and outside, pursed his lips and turned to leave.

There were still a lot of people in the yard of Cheng Wan's house at this time, but after experiencing the commotion just now, most of the people who stayed in the yard now were people who had a special connection with or were close to the Cheng family. .

Mrs. Zhang's family, Mrs. Song's family, Village Chief Jia and Jia Sheng, who represent the people of Jiajia Village, Xu Zhinian's family, Gu Yan and his wife, Village Chief Wu and his wife, Old Man Lu and his wife, Mr. Fang and his wife.

Among them, others from Village Chief Wu’s family, Old Man Lu’s family, and Mr. Fang’s family went out with the others after briefly visiting the courtyard of Cheng Wan’s family.

As for Osmanthus fragrans, Yan Qiu, He Chunlai, Lin Pan, and Lin Pan's pendants Zhao Yuncong, needless to say, they are also in the yard.

Xu Zhinian took Cheng Wan's arm and said with emotion: "Awan, except that your house is not particularly big, everything else is no worse than the house my family bought in Shuoyang City!

Especially the main room and the room you live in are so beautiful! "

There were a lot fewer people in the courtyard than before. Cheng Wan and his family could greet them, so Cheng Wan and his family separated and led different people to look around where they could see.

Like Gu Yan, as an eighteen-year-old foreigner, he definitely couldn't look into Cheng Wan's room.

However, when Xu Zhinian and the others visited the house, they just stood at the door and took a look.

The Cheng Wan family asked them to go in directly, but they refused.

The reason for rejection is also very simple. The house is too clean, and there is mud on the soles of their shoes. They are worried that if you step in and others step in, the clean house will be very dirty.

"nice!"

Gu Yu in Cheng Wan's arms nodded heavily and agreed with Xu Zhinian.

Cheng Wan lowered her head and rubbed Gu Yu's little head wearing a tiger hat, and said with a smile: "You are not a big person, but you know everything."

Mrs. Lin clapped her hands and smiled so hard that she never closed her mouth.

"Er Niu, hurry up and move some tables and place them in this courtyard. We can eat in this courtyard, which will also add some popularity to the new house!

There are also tables, stools, bowls, chopsticks and plates outside. Check to see if they are enough. If not, go and borrow them.

In half an hour at most, we will have a banquet! "

After Mrs. Lin gave the order, except for the Cheng Wan family and the pregnant Xiao Lin who chatted with the guests, the other adults of the Cheng family immediately started to move.

Mrs. Zhang's son and daughter-in-law and Mrs. Song's son and daughter-in-law quickly followed to help.

Jia Sheng also hurriedly walked out. He had to go outside to remind Jia Xiucheng and the others. They all looked at each other and if there was anything they could help with, please help them. Don't stand there waiting for food. They were not outsiders they had just met. .

Shaoqing raised his head and glanced at Gu Yan, then whispered: "Master, can you help me too?"

Gu Yan nodded, "Go ahead."

Shaoqing immediately ran out with a smile and chased Cheng Erping and the others.

Half an hour later, including the four tables in Cheng Wan's courtyard, a total of thirty tables were seated, waiting for food to be served.

Thirty tables is already a lot, but still more than half of the villagers in Pingnan Village did not attend the table.

There are many people in Pingnan Village. If someone in the village has a happy event and other villagers go to the table to eat, the people from Pingnan Village can fill half of the village.

It is almost impossible for families holding weddings to afford this expense.

Although people who come to the banquet will definitely not come empty-handed and will bring more or less something, but most of them are ordinary farmers, and the only gifts they can give are a few eggs, a handful of green onions, and a green onion. When bundling firewood..., the better thing is to take a few copper coins, and the better thing is to take a hundred or ten copper coins.

One hundred copper coins is a gift that can only be given by the relatively wealthy families in the village, and it must be respected by the host who is hosting the wedding.

Either you have a good relationship or you have the intention to have a good relationship, so you can be so generous.

Therefore, in this regard, the custom in Pingnan Village is that if any family in the village holds a wedding, the head of each family will bring two or three family members to the host's house for a banquet.

At this time, no matter how rogue the family is and wants to take advantage, they will only bring one or two more people with them. It will never happen that the whole family of nearly ten, or ten or twenty people will go to the host's house for a banquet.

Unless this family no longer wants to stay in Pingnan Village.

In the courtyard of Cheng Wan's house, Cheng Daniu, Xu Zhuocheng, Gu Yan, Mr. Fang, Village Chief Jia, Jia Sheng, Village Chief Wu, Mrs. Zhang's wife Old Man Xu, Old Man Lu, and Mrs. Song's youngest son Jia Quangui sat at the same table.

Mrs. Lin, Mrs. Wang, Gu Yu, Mrs. Xu, Xu Zhinian, Xu Zhishu, Mrs. Zhang, Mrs. Song, Old Man Lu and his wife, the elder of Wu Village, Mr. Fang and his wife sat at the same table.

Others sat at two separate tables.

Among the four tables, the atmosphere at Cheng Daniu's table and Mrs. Lin's table was relatively quiet.

There were wealthy people at the table, including Cheng Daniu and Mrs. Lin, who couldn't let go.

Cheng Wan walked in quickly with a smile and carrying four plates of salted peanuts on a tray. She quickly placed the four plates of peanuts on four tables respectively, then turned around and walked out quickly.

Cheng Erping also hurried in carrying a tray and passed by Cheng Wan.

Cheng Daniu took the lead in picking up the chopsticks and greeted everyone with a smile: "Everyone, please use your chopsticks. You're welcome."

Four cool and eight hot symbolize everything is stable.

The banquet prepared by Cheng Wan's family consisted of twelve dishes per table.

Among the twelve dishes, most of them were prepared by the chef in advance or half-cooked, so that they would be processed much faster today.

Cheng Wan and the people who were helping to serve the dishes never stopped walking, constantly moving between tables.

However, because there were so many people helping to serve the food, there was no shortage of people or too much work.

Xu Zhinian saw Cheng Wan coming in from outside carrying a large basket of steamed buns, and quickly waved to Cheng Wan, "Awan, the dishes are all finished. Come over and eat quickly. I have left some dishes for you."
