Chapter 79 Start a Company and Be the Boss
After the oil was squeezed, Xu Ning called Chen Fu to fetch the oil. When Chen Fu heard that he had sold two hundred catties to the edible oil factory, he said, "They must have tricked you again. How much will they give you per catty?"
Xu Ning couldn't say it was 48, so he said it was 81. Chen Fu said: "People took your oil, turned around and packed it, and it will definitely sell for [-] catties. Do you believe it or not?"
Xu Ning nodded: "I believe it, but I haven't registered a brand, and I haven't added a workshop. These things are all raw materials here, so the price can't be high."
Chen Fu said: "I think you'd better build a brand, pack it yourself, and I'll sell it for you. It will definitely increase the value of your things by at least one-third."
Xu Ning thought of the soybeans at home. When his cousin was at home during the summer vacation, she told her to register a brand. After a little processing, she could sell it on Taobao.In fact, even if Taobao is not released, it is also possible to use the channel of Chen Fu. "Then I'm going to register a food trademark? Do I need a factory or something?"
Chen Fu said: "If you don't want to become a business, then you can become a self-employed person. I think you can register a company. You and Xun Xu will be a partner. The registration fee is only 3 yuan. It is convenient to do anything. The country still takes good care of the processing of agricultural products, and the tax is not high."
Xu Ning nodded; "I'll go back and discuss it with Xun Xu."
Chen Fu took away [-] catties of peanut oil, and Xu Ning brought back the remaining [-] catties.The edible oil factory is not bad, and they all helped to make sealed packaging, so that they are not afraid of being damaged.Xu Ning told Xun Xu about starting a company, and Xun Xu was very pleasantly surprised: "You said we started a company? The two of us?"
Xu Ning nodded: "Yes, it's just a name. All the bosses and employees of the company are the two of us, my big boss and your second boss."
Xun Xu said: "Then Asen and Lao Zhou are not considered employees?"
Xu Ning was stunned for a moment, then clapped his hands: "Yes, I forgot about this, they all counted. I haven't changed my identity yet, hehe."
Xun Xu was very satisfied with the idea of starting a company. His brothers all started companies and were the bosses. Now they also start a company and are the bosses. It would be very embarrassing to talk about it.
Two days later, Xu Ning really prepared all the materials, and went to the Industrial and Commercial Bureau to register the company. The registered name of the company is Chang Wei, which specializes in non-staple food processing.Xu Ning pondered for a long time, and decided on a logo, a sheep licking its tongue. The draft was drawn by himself, and then he went to the design forum to solicit drafts and asked professionals to help beautify them.
When Xun Xu saw the logo, he knew what Xu Ning meant, and he was annoyed and funny: "This is me?"
"Haha, don't you think the image? Isn't it cute?" Xu Ning looked at the exaggerated cartoon sheep and felt very happy. He took a fancy to this at the first sight among many solicitations.
Xun Xu said: "I am a big man, why did I become so petty. Change to another!"
Xu Ning said: "No. Everyone thinks this is good, it can be remembered at a glance, and it is good for brand promotion." He showed it to many people, including Zhou Shusen, Xiaofeng brothers and sisters, old people who worked, everyone Unanimously impressed by this sheep, Xu Ning decided to use this logo, and Xunxu's objection was invalid.
After completing the logo, Xu Ning began to design and customize the packaging.In this season, there is not much to live, Xu Ning finally has time to deal with the inventory at home. Beans are very easy to handle, just pack them up.The sweet potatoes have to be washed first, most of them are used to process sweet potato flour, and a small part is cooked to dry the potatoes and make potato cakes.
Making dried potatoes is also very particular. Not all sweet potatoes are suitable. Some sweet potatoes are hard and not too sweet. This kind of sweet potato contains relatively high starch content, and it is best used to process starch. The sweet potatoes used to make dried potatoes contain more sugar. There are many, such as yellow potatoes and purple potatoes.Before making dried potatoes, the sweet potatoes should be washed first, then cut into slices, steamed in a steamer, sandwiched, and carefully placed on a bamboo plaque to dry.Dried potatoes in the sun in November are the best, but they didn’t have time to make them at that time, so they can only wait until now. The sun in December is also good, not too strong, not too cold.Dry it in the sun for a few days, wait until the dried sweet potatoes have dried up, and the dried sweet potatoes will become lumps, and some will have a thin layer of white frosting on top, which is soft and elastic when chewed, sweet and delicious, then they can be put into storage up.
Because the dried sweet potato should not be too hard, otherwise it will not be chewable, it will not taste good, and it will not be easy to store if it is more watery, so Xu Ning vacuum-packed it as soon as possible and listed it on Taobao.
Potato cakes are a bit more complicated than dried sweet potatoes. Steam the smaller sweet potatoes in one pot, mash them, add sesame seeds, stir well, knead them into balls, take a clean and large cloth, and put the potato balls on the cloth On the top, turn the cloth over, cover the potato balls, then pat them flat with a knife, and finally flatten them repeatedly with a rolling pin to make them very, very thin, and dry them in the sun.This kind of sweet potato is easier to preserve and more chewy than dried sweet potato. It can also be made into small pieces and fried in an oil pan.In some places, people have weird tastes, and they add chili or fennel to potato cakes, which feels the same as eating weird beans.
The process of making potato cakes is too complicated, and it is generally not bad to eat by yourself, and it is rare to sell them on the market.Xu Ning was only going to sell the former, the latter was made with the help of Zhang Xiuzhi, and he kept it for himself.
After the sweet potato flour was processed, Xu Ning took part of it to make vermicelli.When you mention vermicelli, you can’t help thinking of stewed pork vermicelli. There are many vermicelli on the market, but it’s hard to find really good sweet potato vermicelli. Most of them are potato flour, corn flour, or sweet potato vermicelli mixed with other starches. It is resistant to cooking, and it will rot once cooked, but pure sweet potato flour can be cooked for a long time, and the more it is cooked, the clearer it is, and it is full of chewy, fragrant and refreshing.When cooking fish, put some sweet potato flour, it tastes great.
After the sweet potato vermicelli came out, Xu Ning asked Xun Xu to go to the paddy field to catch a grass carp, and cooked a stewed fish with vermicelli himself.A very homely method, cut the fish into pieces, fry in a pan until both sides turn yellow, then add various ingredients, add water, put the soaked vermicelli in, cover the pot and cook for more than ten minutes, then take it out of the pan, and the vermicelli will absorb enough After eating the fish soup, it looks crystal clear and tastes extremely delicious.Xun Xu ate a bowl full of vermicelli and fish by himself that night, and was moved. Finally, he had a dish made by Xu Ning himself, and it was still so delicious.
The remaining sweet potato starch is dried and packed in bags so that it can be marketed.Sweet potato vermicelli is also available, and it's a big hit.
After processing the sweet potatoes, Xu Ning packed all kinds of beans and put them on the shelves. In this way, the variety of products became more and more abundant.Xu Ning recalled his original intention. It seemed that he was going to sell strawberry preserves. At that time, he gave up the idea because the production cost was too high. Now the conditions are met, but it is not necessary for the time being.He thought that if the strawberries in the village were not easy to sell in the future, he would buy them and make candied fruit for sale. Fresh strawberries are not easy to store for a long time, but candied fruit can last much longer.
Guo Shanshan saw that her cousin's store was finally full of goods, and called happily: "Brother, you are finally willing to process your products. If I don't pass the graduate school, I will come back to work for you when the time comes. You must Take me in."
Xu Ning said: "Take your graduate studies seriously. If you come to me, you won't be able to get married in the future. My uncle and aunt will scold me. I can't afford this responsibility."
"Don't worry about this, you will never be responsible, I will find a way to solve it myself, so it's settled." Guo Shanshan smiled.
Xu Ning didn't take it seriously either. Who really came to farm here after finishing college? Zhou Shusen, a freak, was an exception.
Xun Xu was finally about to take his driver's license test. Xu Ning sent him to the county seat to take the theory test. Xu Ning waited anxiously outside the test room.After more than ten minutes, Xun Xu was the first to come out.Xu Ning asked: "How is it?"
Xun Xu was full of disdain: "That topic is too simple."
Xu Ning showed a relaxed look on his face: "Passed?"
"Of course. Don't doubt my IQ." Xun Xu gave Xu Ning a sideways look.
Xu Ning laughed loudly: "I'm not doubting your IQ, I'm just worried that you don't know how to take the test. You haven't taken the test before, have you?"
"There is no such exam. I have taken many exams before."
"What test?"
"Advanced needs to be assessed."
Xu Ning couldn't understand the question: "Oh, let's go, I have already agreed with Chen Fu, and I will go to his place for a meal."
Xu Ning started the car and went to Chen Fu's store. On the way, he received a call from Wang Qing: "Xu Ning, are you home?"
"Ah? Not here, what's the matter? I'm in the county." Xu Ning was a little surprised. Wang Qing called him, and he didn't receive her call for a while.
Wang Qing smiled and said, "I want to send you an invitation card. If you're not here, then I'll put it in your store. Take it when you come back."
Xu Ning smiled and said, "Are you getting married? Congratulations! When?"
Wang Qing giggled and said, "Yes, we are going to enter the siege city. Are you free on New Year's Day?"
"Yes, yes, definitely come."
After hanging up the phone, Xun Xu asked, "Who is getting married?"
Xu Ning smiled: "Wang Qing got married on New Year's Day. What should we give away?"
Xun Xu raised his eyebrows: "You still invite me?"
Xu Ning rubbed his chin with his hands: "Isn't it usually possible to bring family members on such occasions?"
Xun Xu smiled wickedly: "If you dare to take it, I will go."
"I'm joking. Let's keep a low profile." Xu Ning said.
It doesn't matter if you look for the order, anyway, it's someone else getting married, and it has nothing to do with them.He suddenly thought, can he and Xu Ning get married too?If it is in the fairy world, it may be possible to hold a ceremony, and invite relatives and friends to gather together.If it's here, it's not a bad place here. At that time, you can invite the third sister and those brothers to come over. The ceremony will be avoided, so it's okay to be a witness.That's right, let's do that. When they move to the third floor, call these people over. "When are we moving upstairs?"
Xu Ning said: "Let's wait until the New Year's Day is over. When the weather is good, we can move out when we have time." The house has been renovated for three or four months, so the problem should not be too big.
"Okay, when the time comes to decide in advance, I will call them all over."
"Who?"
Xun Xu said: "It's just my third sister and brothers. Didn't you mean to invite them over to play? By the way, let's witness our move to a new house."
Xu Ning said with some concern: "This kind of weather is coming? Can they adapt? The winter here is more difficult than Beijing, very cold."
Xun Xu didn't take it seriously: "Is there anything you can't adapt to, don't forget, they are all gods."
"All right, then we'll pack up the house early, buy more beds and quilts, and install the air conditioner."
Xu Ning took this matter to heart, and the Xunxu brothers came here. There is nothing interesting in this weather, and there is not much to eat, except for the vegetables in the greenhouse. At that time, it is better to kill a wild boar, and then roast a whole sheep. There are also mountain rats and chickens, which should be about the same. They are very busy, so they won't stay here for a long time.
Xu Ning didn't know what Xun Xu told those people. Anyway, they all agreed to come, and the time was set on the tenth of the first month, which was about 20 days before the Chinese New Year.
By the time of New Year's Day, Xunxu's driver's license exam had been completed, and he passed the test. He just waited to get his driver's license.
Xu Ning prepared a red envelope of 1000 yuan to attend Wang Qing's wedding.Generally speaking, four to five hundred yuan is enough for ordinary students to get married. Wang Qing has helped Xu Ning a lot, but not to the point of being particularly close. Xu Ning wanted to get a little less than Wang Qing's best friend Chen Xiaolu, This is also passable.Wang Qing's invitation stated "Mr. Xu Ning and his family to attend", but would Xu Ning dare to attend someone else's wedding in a grand manner?Doesn't that mean coming out of the closet, so he still plans to go alone.
The day before the wedding, Wang Qing called Xu Ning: "Xu Ning, please do me a favor."
"What's the matter?" The bride-to-be has a request, and she must try her best to meet it.
Wang Qing said: "Those relatives in our family know that I am familiar with you. They all want to eat your mutton and strongly demand that I come to your house to buy mutton. Xu Ning, can you make it in time?"
Xu Ning laughed: "Tomorrow is the lunch at noon, right? It should be in time."
Wang Qing said: "I have about twenty tables here, how many sheep do you think I need?"
"Let's have one end. I'll grab the bigger ones for you. There are about three or four catties of meat on each table. It should be about the same."
"Okay, you pull it over and I'll count the money for you."
Xu Ning said with a smile: "Otherwise I won't be a follower, and this sheep will be a follower for you."
Wang Qing thought for a while: "That won't work. Your mutton is too expensive to afford. You should join everyone. Don't worry, we can afford mutton."
Xu Ning didn't insist: "That's fine, I'll deliver it to you before ten o'clock tomorrow, so it should be in time?"
"Yeah, try to be as early as possible, thank you!" Wang Qing sighed, the menu of the restaurant has actually been ordered a long time ago, but a very distinguished relative of her husband's family rushed back from outside to attend their wedding, everyone is trying to find a way Get some delicious food and drink to entertain this dear relative.Wang Qing's husband said, it's better to buy a sheep from Xu Ning's house, just for everyone to try something new, so there is such a thing.
It was already night, and it would be too late to kill the sheep tomorrow, so Xu Ning and Xun Xu had to do it themselves, picking a sheep and slaughtering it.I usually see that Master Wu has done a lot. Although it is the first time to formally get started, it is not too difficult for them. It took more than an hour to finally deal with the sheep.
Xun Xu said, "Will you bring it there tomorrow?"
Xu Ning said, "I'll drive over there."
"Let me help you send it over."
Xu Ning thought for a while, it's okay, so as not to get bloody all over his body: "Okay."
Early the next morning, Xun Xu came back after delivering the food, and then sent Xu Ning to the county town for a wedding.Wangqing's wedding banquet was booked for the restaurant, and the mutton dish was a temporary replacement. When it was delivered, the chefs of the restaurant were quite unhappy. If they want mutton, they should have said earlier, and they should prepare it instead of themselves Bringing vegetables over and letting them cook them is so petty, as if they are afraid of spending more money. Isn't it a toss to deal with a whole sheep at this time.But the boss agreed, and the chefs had to do it too.
After Xun Xu delivered the meat, she was ready to go back. Chen Xiaolu didn't go to see off her relatives. She took her son and followed Xu Ning's car to the restaurant directly. What else to go, go back after dinner. We happen to have a car, so we don't have to take a car."
Xun Xu said: "That's not good, she didn't invite me."
"It doesn't matter if you don't invite me. If you come with Xu Ning, it will be considered as Xu Ning's family. There are so many people, just add a pair of chopsticks. I have the final say. I will call Wang Qing now." Chen Xiaolu said Put the big fat son in Xu Ning's arms into Xu Ning's arms, "Come on, help me hold Zhuang Zhuang."
Chen Xiaolu's son's nickname is Zhuang Zhuang, and he is indeed very strong. He is only one year old and weighs [-] kilograms. He is round and looks very similar to Chen Xiaolu.This little guy just learned to walk, and he couldn't stay on Xu Ning's body. He wanted to get off the ground, so he pointed to the ground: "Get down, get down!"
Xu Ning had no choice but to put him down, took the little guy's hand and followed him.There are a lot of clothes in winter, Zhuang Zhuang is dressed like a ball, his legs are twisted when he walks, drooling, and rushing forward happily, Xu Ning has to pay attention to him all the time, and when he sees him jumping on the ground, hurry up Reach out and hold.Xun Xu watched Xu Ning patiently pick up the handkerchief hanging by the skirt to wipe Zhuang Zhuang's saliva, his face was full of tenderness and love, and he often said "Zhuang Zhuang, go here with godfather, go there with godfather" "Hanging on his lips, a question came to his mind: Will Xu Ning also want a child?
After Chen Xiaolu made the phone call, she looked at Xun Xu beside her: "Okay, Wang Qing said it's okay, you'll be at our table when the time comes, and Xu Ning brought it."
Xun Xu nodded: "It's troublesome." He happened to want to stay to see how the wedding banquet was going, and it was the first time attending a banquet, there must be a lot of delicious food.
Chen Xiaolu saw that he kept his eyes on Xu Ning and her son, and said, "When you get married, you can have two children to play with, it's fun." She didn't bother to hug her son, and finally someone helped to watch Then, happy to be free, he found a chair and sat down.
Xun Xu bowed his head and grinned, we can get married, but I don't have the function of having children, and neither does Xu Ning.
Although the little guy is small, he is very energetic. After a while, Xu Ning couldn't take it anymore, so he quickly waved to Xun Xu: "Xun Xu, come here."
Xun Xu walked over: "What's wrong?"
Xu Ning said, "Come and hold me for a while, and I'll rest for a while." The little fat man was heavy and flopped around tirelessly, and it was really tiring to take care of him.
Xun Xu took Zhuang Zhuang's hand, but felt that the little hand was too weak, afraid of breaking it, he grabbed the clothes behind his neck with his hand.No one was holding his hand anymore, Zhuang Zhuang felt that he was finally free, his two calves were so joyful, they rolled forward like a steamroller.Xun Xu originally followed slowly, but his short legs had already strode a long way, and the neck was still in his hands, and he was about to lean over, the little guy yelled dissatisfied.Xun Xu hurriedly followed, trotting to keep up with the little guy's footsteps, watching Xu Ning and Chen Xiaolu amusedly.
Chen Xiaolu said with a smile: "Look, as long as a man is caring, he is suitable to be a father. Xun Xu is such a cool and handsome guy, and he is unambiguous in taking care of children. My old Zheng is also, don't look at him as always Putting on a face, when you go home and hug your son, you will surely smile brighter than a chrysanthemum."
Xu Ning couldn't help but burst out laughing at this metaphor. He imagined that Zheng Feng's face had turned into a chrysanthemum, and he felt so happy no matter what he thought.Is Xun Xu suitable to be a father?He remembered how Xun Xu treated the cats and dogs at home, the typical knife-mouthed bean curd heart, teasing them for nothing, maybe he is really suitable to be a father, but where is the son.
There is one thing that Xu Ning is very grateful to Chen Xiaolu. Although she said that you are suitable to be fathers, she doesn't ask if you want me to introduce you to a girlfriend. This way, she won't have to say no to her.
Around eleven o'clock, the guests arrived one after another. Xu Ning, Xun Xu and Chen Xiaolu sat at the guest table on the bride's side. They were all Wang Qing's high school classmates at the table, and most of the people who came knew each other. , Everyone saw Xun Xu holding Zhuang Zhuang, and asked Chen Xiaolu with a smile: "Who is that handsome guy next to you? It doesn't seem to be your husband." Zhuang Zhuang likes to get close to Xun Xu so much that he doesn't even want his mother.
Chen Xiaolu laughed: "If my husband wants to be so handsome, I will wake up with a smile in my dreams at night. He came with Xu Ning, and he also knows Wang Qing, but he is not our classmate." This sentence dispelled everyone's doubts, Wang Qing's friend.
After the wedding started, Xu Ning saw that very distinguished relative of Wang Qing's family, who seemed to be an official in another place, and was an uncle of the groom. After the wedding started, he was invited to give a speech. I've seen big scenes.Xun Xu watched the whole wedding with great interest. It turns out that modern people do their marriages like this. They don’t visit the hall or salute. The bride and groom stand in the middle of the stage, a host talks, and the groom speaks again. If the parents' representatives talk, they are considered married.
The banquet finally started, Chen Xiaolu hugged Zhuang Zhuang from her family, Xun Xu was finally quiet, and began to eat with peace of mind.The dishes came out quickly, and each dish has a nice name, such as Tiancheng with couples, mandarin duck fish slices, flying with wings, family acacia, etc. In fact, it is not much different from ordinary food, it is nothing more than chicken, duck and fish. There are more appropriate dishes such as longan and lotus seed soup.Everyone seems to be used to this kind of occasion, chatting casually while eating, watching the bride and groom sitting next to each other to toast everyone.
Until the last stewed mutton soup was served, everyone was attracted by the aroma of this dish. Some people tasted it and immediately noticed the difference. Then they greeted the people at the same table to start eating meat and soup, and the scene became lively again.
Xu Ning's table was no exception. Chen Xiaolu said proudly: "How is it? Today's mutton is not bad, right? This is the sheep raised by my son's godfather Xu Ning. I love his mutton the most. Zhuang Zhuang also Love to eat, right?"
The people at the same table were very surprised, and asked how Xu Ning raised them. Xu Ning just laughed: "There is no secret, try to feed them as much as possible, eat grass, and let them run outside."
Chen Xiaolu went on to say: "I have a chance to come to our Shaqiao. Xu Ning opened a Changwei fresh food store, and his brother opened a Changweixuan restaurant, which sells mutton. Changweixuan's mutton is better than this one." It tastes good."
Xu Ning laughed: "Everyone can come to my house to play when you have time. You can eat and drink enough! We are already doing a pilot project of strawberry cultivation, and there will be strawberries to eat next spring. You can come to our place to pick strawberries."
The two guys, Xu Ning and Chen Xiaolu, spared no effort in advertising Wang Qing's wedding banquet.
Xu Ning couldn't say it was 48, so he said it was 81. Chen Fu said: "People took your oil, turned around and packed it, and it will definitely sell for [-] catties. Do you believe it or not?"
Xu Ning nodded: "I believe it, but I haven't registered a brand, and I haven't added a workshop. These things are all raw materials here, so the price can't be high."
Chen Fu said: "I think you'd better build a brand, pack it yourself, and I'll sell it for you. It will definitely increase the value of your things by at least one-third."
Xu Ning thought of the soybeans at home. When his cousin was at home during the summer vacation, she told her to register a brand. After a little processing, she could sell it on Taobao.In fact, even if Taobao is not released, it is also possible to use the channel of Chen Fu. "Then I'm going to register a food trademark? Do I need a factory or something?"
Chen Fu said: "If you don't want to become a business, then you can become a self-employed person. I think you can register a company. You and Xun Xu will be a partner. The registration fee is only 3 yuan. It is convenient to do anything. The country still takes good care of the processing of agricultural products, and the tax is not high."
Xu Ning nodded; "I'll go back and discuss it with Xun Xu."
Chen Fu took away [-] catties of peanut oil, and Xu Ning brought back the remaining [-] catties.The edible oil factory is not bad, and they all helped to make sealed packaging, so that they are not afraid of being damaged.Xu Ning told Xun Xu about starting a company, and Xun Xu was very pleasantly surprised: "You said we started a company?

Xun Xu was finally about to take his driver's license test. Xu Ning sent him to the county seat to take the theory test. Xu Ning waited anxiously outside the test room.After more than ten minutes, Xun Xu was the first to come out.Xu Ning asked: "How is it?"
Xun Xu was full of disdain: "That topic is too simple."
Xu Ning showed a relaxed look on his face: "Passed?"
"Of course. Don't doubt my IQ." Xun Xu gave Xu Ning a sideways look.
Xu Ning laughed loudly: "I'm not doubting your IQ, I'm just worried that you don't know how to take the test. You haven't taken the test before, have you?"
"There is no such exam. I have taken many exams before."
"What test?"
"Advanced needs to be assessed."
Xu Ning couldn't understand the question: "Oh, let's go, I have already agreed with Chen Fu, and I will go to his place for a meal."
Xu Ning started the car and went to Chen Fu's store. On the way, he received a call from Wang Qing: "Xu Ning, are you home?"
"Ah? Not here, what's the matter? I'm in the county." Xu Ning was a little surprised. Wang Qing called him, and he didn't receive her call for a while.
Wang Qing smiled and said, "I want to send you an invitation card. If you're not here, then I'll put it in your store. Take it when you come back."
Xu Ning smiled and said, "Are you getting married? Congratulations! When?"
Wang Qing giggled and said, "Yes, we are going to enter the siege city. Are you free on New Year's Day?"
"Yes, yes, definitely come."
After hanging up the phone, Xun Xu asked, "Who is getting married?"
Xu Ning smiled: "Wang Qing got married on New Year's Day. What should we give away?"
Xun Xu raised his eyebrows: "You still invite me?"
Xu Ning rubbed his chin with his hands: "Isn't it usually possible to bring family members on such occasions?"
Xun Xu smiled wickedly: "If you dare to take it, I will go."
"I'm joking. Let's keep a low profile." Xu Ning said.
It doesn't matter if you look for the order, anyway, it's someone else getting married, and it has nothing to do with them.He suddenly thought, can he and Xu Ning get married too?If it is in the fairy world, it may be possible to hold a ceremony, and invite relatives and friends to gather together.If it's here, it's not a bad place here. At that time, you can invite the third sister and those brothers to come over. The ceremony will be avoided, so it's okay to be a witness.That's right, let's do that. When they move to the third floor, call these people over. "When are we moving upstairs?"
Xu Ning said: "Let's wait until the New Year's Day is over. When the weather is good, we can move out when we have time." The house has been renovated for three or four months, so the problem should not be too big.
"Okay, when the time comes to decide in advance, I will call them all over."
"Who?"
Xun Xu said: "It's just my third sister and brothers. Didn't you mean to invite them over to play? By the way, let's witness our move to a new house."
Xu Ning said with some concern: "This kind of weather is coming? Can they adapt? The winter here is more difficult than Beijing, very cold."
Xun Xu didn't take it seriously: "Is there anything you can't adapt to, don't forget, they are all gods."
"All right, then we'll pack up the house early, buy more beds and quilts, and install the air conditioner."
Xu Ning took this matter to heart, and the Xunxu brothers came here. There is nothing interesting in this weather, and there is not much to eat, except for the vegetables in the greenhouse. At that time, it is better to kill a wild boar, and then roast a whole sheep. There are also mountain rats and chickens, which should be about the same. They are very busy, so they won't stay here for a long time.
Xu Ning didn't know what Xun Xu told those people. Anyway, they all agreed to come, and the time was set on the tenth of the first month, which was about 20 days before the Chinese New Year.
By the time of New Year's Day, Xunxu's driver's license exam had been completed, and he passed the test. He just waited to get his driver's license.
Xu Ning prepared a red envelope of 1000 yuan to attend Wang Qing's wedding.Generally speaking, four to five hundred yuan is enough for ordinary students to get married. Wang Qing has helped Xu Ning a lot, but not to the point of being particularly close. Xu Ning wanted to get a little less than Wang Qing's best friend Chen Xiaolu, This is also passable.Wang Qing's invitation stated "Mr. Xu Ning and his family to attend", but would Xu Ning dare to attend someone else's wedding in a grand manner?Doesn't that mean coming out of the closet, so he still plans to go alone.
The day before the wedding, Wang Qing called Xu Ning: "Xu Ning, please do me a favor."
"What's the matter?" The bride-to-be has a request, and she must try her best to meet it.
Wang Qing said: "Those relatives in our family know that I am familiar with you. They all want to eat your mutton and strongly demand that I come to your house to buy mutton. Xu Ning, can you make it in time?"
Xu Ning laughed: "Tomorrow is the lunch at noon, right? It should be in time."
Wang Qing said: "I have about twenty tables here, how many sheep do you think I need?"
"Let's have one end. I'll grab the bigger ones for you. There are about three or four catties of meat on each table. It should be about the same."
"Okay, you pull it over and I'll count the money for you."
Xu Ning said with a smile: "Otherwise I won't be a follower, and this sheep will be a follower for you."
Wang Qing thought for a while: "That won't work. Your mutton is too expensive to afford. You should join everyone. Don't worry, we can afford mutton."
Xu Ning didn't insist: "That's fine, I'll deliver it to you before ten o'clock tomorrow, so it should be in time?"
"Yeah, try to be as early as possible, thank you!" Wang Qing sighed, the menu of the restaurant has actually been ordered a long time ago, but a very distinguished relative of her husband's family rushed back from outside to attend their wedding, everyone is trying to find a way Get some delicious food and drink to entertain this dear relative.Wang Qing's husband said, it's better to buy a sheep from Xu Ning's house, just for everyone to try something new, so there is such a thing.
It was already night, and it would be too late to kill the sheep tomorrow, so Xu Ning and Xun Xu had to do it themselves, picking a sheep and slaughtering it.I usually see that Master Wu has done a lot. Although it is the first time to formally get started, it is not too difficult for them. It took more than an hour to finally deal with the sheep.
Xun Xu said, "Will you bring it there tomorrow?"
Xu Ning said, "I'll drive over there."
"Let me help you send it over."
Xu Ning thought for a while, it's okay, so as not to get bloody all over his body: "Okay."
Early the next morning, Xun Xu came back after delivering the food, and then sent Xu Ning to the county town for a wedding.Wangqing's wedding banquet was booked for the restaurant, and the mutton dish was a temporary replacement. When it was delivered, the chefs of the restaurant were quite unhappy. If they want mutton, they should have said earlier, and they should prepare it instead of themselves Bringing vegetables over and letting them cook them is so petty, as if they are afraid of spending more money. Isn't it a toss to deal with a whole sheep at this time.But the boss agreed, and the chefs had to do it too.
After Xun Xu delivered the meat, she was ready to go back. Chen Xiaolu didn't go to see off her relatives. She took her son and followed Xu Ning's car to the restaurant directly. What else to go, go back after dinner. We happen to have a car, so we don't have to take a car."
Xun Xu said: "That's not good, she didn't invite me."
"It doesn't matter if you don't invite me. If you come with Xu Ning, it will be considered as Xu Ning's family. There are so many people, just add a pair of chopsticks. I have the final say. I will call Wang Qing now." Chen Xiaolu said Put the big fat son in Xu Ning's arms into Xu Ning's arms, "Come on, help me hold Zhuang Zhuang."
Chen Xiaolu's son's nickname is Zhuang Zhuang, and he is indeed very strong. He is only one year old and weighs [-] kilograms. He is round and looks very similar to Chen Xiaolu.This little guy just learned to walk, and he couldn't stay on Xu Ning's body. He wanted to get off the ground, so he pointed to the ground: "Get down, get down!"
Xu Ning had no choice but to put him down, took the little guy's hand and followed him.There are a lot of clothes in winter, Zhuang Zhuang is dressed like a ball, his legs are twisted when he walks, drooling, and rushing forward happily, Xu Ning has to pay attention to him all the time, and when he sees him jumping on the ground, hurry up Reach out and hold.Xun Xu watched Xu Ning patiently pick up the handkerchief hanging by the skirt to wipe Zhuang Zhuang's saliva, his face was full of tenderness and love, and he often said "Zhuang Zhuang, go here with godfather, go there with godfather" "Hanging on his lips, a question came to his mind: Will Xu Ning also want a child?
After Chen Xiaolu made the phone call, she looked at Xun Xu beside her: "Okay, Wang Qing said it's okay, you'll be at our table when the time comes, and Xu Ning brought it."
Xun Xu nodded: "It's troublesome." He happened to want to stay to see how the wedding banquet was going, and it was the first time attending a banquet, there must be a lot of delicious food.
Chen Xiaolu saw that he kept his eyes on Xu Ning and her son, and said, "When you get married, you can have two children to play with, it's fun." She didn't bother to hug her son, and finally someone helped to watch Then, happy to be free, he found a chair and sat down.
Xun Xu bowed his head and grinned, we can get married, but I don't have the function of having children, and neither does Xu Ning.
Although the little guy is small, he is very energetic. After a while, Xu Ning couldn't take it anymore, so he quickly waved to Xun Xu: "Xun Xu, come here."
Xun Xu walked over: "What's wrong?"
Xu Ning said, "Come and hold me for a while, and I'll rest for a while." The little fat man was heavy and flopped around tirelessly, and it was really tiring to take care of him.
Xun Xu took Zhuang Zhuang's hand, but felt that the little hand was too weak, afraid of breaking it, he grabbed the clothes behind his neck with his hand.No one was holding his hand anymore, Zhuang Zhuang felt that he was finally free, his two calves were so joyful, they rolled forward like a steamroller.Xun Xu originally followed slowly, but his short legs had already strode a long way, and the neck was still in his hands, and he was about to lean over, the little guy yelled dissatisfied.Xun Xu hurriedly followed, trotting to keep up with the little guy's footsteps, watching Xu Ning and Chen Xiaolu amusedly.
Chen Xiaolu said with a smile: "Look, as long as a man is caring, he is suitable to be a father. Xun Xu is such a cool and handsome guy, and he is unambiguous in taking care of children. My old Zheng is also, don't look at him as always Putting on a face, when you go home and hug your son, you will surely smile brighter than a chrysanthemum."
Xu Ning couldn't help but burst out laughing at this metaphor. He imagined that Zheng Feng's face had turned into a chrysanthemum, and he felt so happy no matter what he thought.Is Xun Xu suitable to be a father?He remembered how Xun Xu treated the cats and dogs at home, the typical knife-mouthed bean curd heart, teasing them for nothing, maybe he is really suitable to be a father, but where is the son.
There is one thing that Xu Ning is very grateful to Chen Xiaolu. Although she said that you are suitable to be fathers, she doesn't ask if you want me to introduce you to a girlfriend. This way, she won't have to say no to her.
Around eleven o'clock, the guests arrived one after another. Xu Ning, Xun Xu and Chen Xiaolu sat at the guest table on the bride's side. They were all Wang Qing's high school classmates at the table, and most of the people who came knew each other. , Everyone saw Xun Xu holding Zhuang Zhuang, and asked Chen Xiaolu with a smile: "Who is that handsome guy next to you? It doesn't seem to be your husband." Zhuang Zhuang likes to get close to Xun Xu so much that he doesn't even want his mother.
Chen Xiaolu laughed: "If my husband wants to be so handsome, I will wake up with a smile in my dreams at night. He came with Xu Ning, and he also knows Wang Qing, but he is not our classmate." This sentence dispelled everyone's doubts, Wang Qing's friend.
After the wedding started, Xu Ning saw that very distinguished relative of Wang Qing's family, who seemed to be an official in another place, and was an uncle of the groom. After the wedding started, he was invited to give a speech. I've seen big scenes.Xun Xu watched the whole wedding with great interest. It turns out that modern people do their marriages like this. They don’t visit the hall or salute. The bride and groom stand in the middle of the stage, a host talks, and the groom speaks again. If the parents' representatives talk, they are considered married.
The banquet finally started, Chen Xiaolu hugged Zhuang Zhuang from her family, Xun Xu was finally quiet, and began to eat with peace of mind.The dishes came out quickly, and each dish has a nice name, such as Tiancheng with couples, mandarin duck fish slices, flying with wings, family acacia, etc. In fact, it is not much different from ordinary food, it is nothing more than chicken, duck and fish. There are more appropriate dishes such as longan and lotus seed soup.Everyone seems to be used to this kind of occasion, chatting casually while eating, watching the bride and groom sitting next to each other to toast everyone.
Until the last stewed mutton soup was served, everyone was attracted by the aroma of this dish. Some people tasted it and immediately noticed the difference. Then they greeted the people at the same table to start eating meat and soup, and the scene became lively again.
Xu Ning's table was no exception. Chen Xiaolu said proudly: "How is it? Today's mutton is not bad, right? This is the sheep raised by my son's godfather Xu Ning. I love his mutton the most. Zhuang Zhuang also Love to eat, right?"
The people at the same table were very surprised, and asked how Xu Ning raised them. Xu Ning just laughed: "There is no secret, try to feed them as much as possible, eat grass, and let them run outside."
Chen Xiaolu went on to say: "I have a chance to come to our Shaqiao. Xu Ning opened a Changwei fresh food store, and his brother opened a Changweixuan restaurant, which sells mutton. Changweixuan's mutton is better than this one." It tastes good."
Xu Ning laughed: "Everyone can come to my house to play when you have time. You can eat and drink enough! We are already doing a pilot project of strawberry cultivation, and there will be strawberries to eat next spring. You can come to our place to pick strawberries."
The two guys, Xu Ning and Chen Xiaolu, spared no effort in advertising Wang Qing's wedding banquet.
