Siheyuan: A blessed place to start

Chapter 16: Arranging the Table

Ring ring ring

When the bell rang for the end of get off work, the people working in the steel mill hurried home.

Everyone is looking forward to Xiao Weiguo's performance.

That’s worth more than 3000 yuan!

I heard that White Rabbit milk candies were distributed to the children in the institution yesterday.

For such a wealthy and generous person, the banquet he arranged would definitely have some oil and water.

"Uncle, why do you think Xiao Weiguo agreed so quickly?"

The three-member pension group gathered together again.

"I also feel that there is something strange here. Is Xiao Weiguo trying to cheat?" Jia Dongxu asked worriedly.

"No, he doesn't dare." Yi Zhonghai said hesitantly.

Xiao Weiguo's way of doing things these days after he came back made him a little confused and he couldn't figure out his pulse.

When they came back, they found that everyone was standing at the gate.

"Why did you come back?"

"Silly Zhu is too rude."

"Who said it wasn't that? If you knew there was a feast, why did you come back so late?"

"It's just to save face as a chef, but the neighbors still live like this."

"I usually shake the spoon when I serve food, and I did the same thing in the yard today."

"I think he just doesn't take everyone in his heart. In the future..."

…………

After seeing the three retirement groups coming back, everyone started to criticize them.

Several people were confused. It was clearly Xiao Weiguo who hosted the banquet, so why were they blaming Sha Zhu?

"I didn't say..."

Sha Zhu, who had a bad temper, couldn't stand it anymore and wanted to scold him, but Yi Zhonghai covered his mouth.

"what happened?"

Seeing Yi Zhonghai's serious expression, everyone stopped talking, and Liu Haizhong stood up at this time.

"What's going on? Everyone came back with great expectations to have the feast. Xiao Weiguo bought everything, but Sha Zhu didn't come back to cook. Do you think this is appropriate?"

"I do?"

Shazhu pointed at himself and said uncertainly.

"Should I do it? Didn't you come to see me last night?"

Xiao Weiguo stuck his head out and asked back.

"But you didn't tell me in advance?"

Sha Zhu's eyes were filled with depression. A blatant opportunity to earn extra money almost slipped away.

"Do I need to tell you in advance? When you came here yesterday, I thought you wanted to show off your skills. Don't tell me you don't want to do it for everyone."

Xiao Weiguo pretended not to understand and continued to ask back.

"Of course I want to do it."

"Then go ahead and do it. We, the old and young masters, are all waiting for you here."

"But you haven't told me the labor cost yet?"

"What? So you don't cook for us, you want labor fees?" Xiao Weiguo asked back, his voice rising eight degrees.

As soon as these words were spoken, the way everyone in the courtyard looked at Sha Zhu changed again.

Seeing Xiao Weiguo's sharp words and his anger expressed to this point, Yi Zhonghai stood up.

"Shazhu can prepare the feast, but I'm sure you haven't prepared everything? Don't just prepare some cabbage and potatoes."

"Haha."

"We are waiting for you to say that. Four fish, four chickens, four pork elbows, six pounds of pork belly four fingers thick, and some other side dishes."

Xiao Weiguo pulled the bag behind him in front of everyone and laid out the items one by one.

The people who were watching the feast couldn't stop drooling at the sight of such a rich feast.

Oh my god, I’m so lucky.

This meal is equivalent to their annual food intake. How can people normally eat these things? I dare not even think about it.

Xiao Weiguo looked at the small bubbles in the air that could no longer be squeezed out, and smiled happily in his heart.

You think I am losing a lot, but I am making a sure profit.

This time, I'm in the atmosphere.

"Guangtian, Guangfu, why don't you come out and help your brother Zhu."

The two boys limped out, looking at the meat on the ground and drooling.

After seeing these things, Sha Zhu knew that Xiao Weiguo had invested a lot of money, so he stopped struggling. He could just give him a good meal. Wouldn't that be great?

The rest of the people were reluctant to leave as well. Many of them had never had such a good feast in their lives. Everyone gathered outside Sha Zhu's house waiting.

The aunties in the courtyard now all knew about Xiao Weiguo's generosity and began to get excited. It would be great if they could have a bite of it.

"I don't care, I don't care, I'm going." When Banggeng heard that there were so many delicious foods at home, he couldn't control himself at all.

Qin Huairu looked at Jia Zhang in embarrassment. Life was difficult in that era. No matter what kind of banquet it was, one person from each family had to go. If too many people went, it would not only humiliate others, but also embarrass the host family.

"What are you looking at, you useless piece of shit? I'll bring my eldest grandson over there later and see who in this courtyard dares to stop us from eating."

Jia Zhang's triangular teeth narrowed into a slit and she spoke arrogantly, but the leaking tooth seemed a little painful.

Xiao Weiguo really dared to do it.

"What are you still looking at? Learn from Guangtian and Guangfu. Go and help now. Then you two can have a good meal too." Yan Bugui was furious when he looked at the two little ones in his family.

Why is he not as smart as others? Is it true that children need to be beaten, and the more they are beaten, the smarter they become? Yan Bugui began to reflect on himself.

After hearing this, Yan Jiefang and Yan Jiekuang excitedly walked towards the central courtyard.

I couldn’t even imagine being able to enjoy such a big feast. I couldn’t even imagine it!

Seeing more and more children gathering in front of Sha Zhu's house, Xiao Weiguo's eyes turned and another idea came to his mind.

"Go find a way to get all the children in the yard over here!"

Xiao Weiguo gave Yan Jiekuang a piece of White Rabbit milk candy and whispered something to him.

Sha Zhu was in the kitchen, using all his cooking skills, and the aroma filled the yard.

"Three uncles, uncles."

Xiao Weiguo saw that the meal was almost ready and there were more and more children, so he cleared his throat and shouted.

"To be honest, after I came back, there were some minor conflicts, but they were nothing serious. I wanted to take this opportunity to have a drink with the old and young men and apologize."

"For this, I even used all my uncle's favors to get these good things, just thinking that everyone can have a bite and have fun."

"Good, it looks good."

Xu Damao shouted from the side.

The others also followed suit and shouted. Just this meal was enough to prove Xiao Weiguo's intentions.

Xiao Weiguo stood on a chair, opened his arms and waved them slowly, signaling everyone to listen to him continue.

"But I'm thinking too simply and too narrowly. We can eat whenever we want, and what does it matter whether we eat or not?"

"Look at the children in this yard, their innocent eyes, their eager expressions. Can you bear it?"

"No matter what happens, we can't let the children suffer. No matter what happens, we can't live without children. So we should give up this meal to the children in the yard and let them have a full meal."

The deep feelings and loyalty expressed by Xiao Weiguo moved the children and their parents, who all raised their hands in agreement.

How many people who have children don’t take care of them?

If I eat one less meal, all the children in the family can have a full meal. It’s such a simple deal and it’s easy to make.

Looking at the enthusiastic cheers all around, Yi Zhonghai walked behind the crowd with a grim face.

good, very good, excellent.

You all laugh at me for not having children. Xiao Weiguo, you did it on purpose. Just wait for me.

The anger in Yi Zhonghai's heart at this moment was like water flowing across a river, and there was no way to calm it down.

Not having children and needing others to support him in his old age has always been a pain in his heart, but he has always hidden it well.

But at this time, someone is opening up this scar and keeps rubbing salt into it.

Xiao Weiguo, who was in the center of the crowd, looked at the exceptionally large bubbles and felt secretly happy.

"Eat the feast, I'll make you eat shit!"
