Chapter 740: Sleepless Night~

Lu Chixiao chuckled lowly, took the soup spoon in her hand and said, "I'll come here, you make a list, what else do you need to buy, after dinner, I asked Ah Yang to borrow a small truck, let's go sweep the goods!"

"You're not going to work in the afternoon?"

"I'll go to the unit later, anyway, it's nothing lately. My father-in-law is engaged to such a big deal, can the son-in-law not ask for leave?"

Also, for red and white ceremonies, the workplace will generally grant leave.

The two of them work together, one cooks dumplings and the other lists purchase orders.

After checking it, I ran to the kitchen, and took advantage of the short time when the dumplings were in the pot to quickly pat a cucumber and mix a dish of sesame kelp shreds.

After eating, I went out to buy arm in arm.

Unbeknownst to her, after she withdrew from the lottery system, the central star of the Federation Galaxy, which was hundreds of millions of light-years away, once again almost caused the light brain's star network entertainment system to collapse because of her brief projection.

#1: Ahhh?——h

#2: What about people? Don't doubt life, it's really the eldest princess! If you don't come out again, you will suspect that there is something wrong with your artificial brain stem......

As soon as this building was built, in the blink of an eye, it soared to #1888 - this probably had great doubts about the appearance of the eldest princess: I advise you to use your brains!

#......

#9999: #1888说的好像你见过长公主似的? Don't forget, the last time the eldest princess suddenly arrived, the Xingyu family didn't come out to deny it. If it's fake, are the Xingyu family all dead?

#......

#12888: Yes, and the eldest princess's family! The eldest princess's uncle is so capable, there's no way to let a fake piece of news run around there.

#......

The news of the eldest princess's reappearance was not received earlier than Qi Heng and Qi Hui.

It's just not much better than last time, and it's broken in seconds.

The brothers are still sweating for their eldest sister: worrying that the signal is so unstable that it will not be possible to protect their lives...... If I knew that Xu Suizhu just signed it with a hand slip, I don't know how to thank you.

Xu Suizhu is thinking about the engagement banquet at noon tomorrow, the local engagement banquet, there are three dishes that must be served:

First of all, sea cucumber, which means that there are many children and grandchildren, this is not worried, her uncle's fishing ground has stocked up on a lot of dry goods.

The second is the lotus seed, symbolizing the early birth of the noble son, which needs to run a trip to the mountain village - the collective lake of the mountain village, in recent years, the villagers have jointly contracted to plant lotus, whether it is the lotus that produces lotus seeds, or the lotus lotus that produces lotus roots.

The third is to roast the whole pig, which means that the pearl shines in Huatang. The pigs raised in the nearby villages are generally local pigs, and the small suckling pigs that are suitable for roasting whole pigs have to go to the pig farm in the eastern suburbs of the county.

So, the two of them ran half of the county in one afternoon.

Thanks to other auspicious dishes such as fried phoenix slices with sweet beans that imply the entry of colorful phoenixes, fried shiitake mushrooms with shrimp glue that imply the romance of flowers, crispy crab spring rolls that imply double happiness, braised chicken wings that imply flying with wings, prawn lotus root that implies the natural success of a good couple, and sweet barley soup that implies happiness and sweetness, the ingredients are basically ready-made-

Needless to say, the fishing ground of her aunt's family is definitely not a decoration; chickens, ducks, and big white geese can be caught casually on Fuju Island; and there is no shortage of auxiliary materials such as mushrooms, barley, and lilies......

The purchase of ingredients is alive, and the couple went to the county center of the non-staple food wholesale market to buy all kinds of condiments, and on the way back, they also turned around to the grain station to carry two large bags of flour, and in the evening they also had to catch a batch of auspicious dim sum decorated with red dates, longan, and peanut kernels.

In short, it took a full car to return to the fjord scenic area.

According to the customs of the fjord, engagement is a prelude to the marriage in which the man goes to the woman's house with a bride price, a bride price, and an even group of relatives and friends, and the woman hosts a banquet.

However, if the two families are far apart, and the woman has few relatives and the man has many relatives, it is not without precedent for the man's family to hold a banquet.

Regarding the question of who will organize the engagement banquet, Xu Xiuyuan and Mrs. Qu reached an agreement when they were still on the cruise ship - the two families will hold it together, but the venue is set at the man's house.

This is mainly due to practical problems - Nancheng is too far away from here, and the engagement is an internal matter between the two families anyway, and there is no need to bring relatives, but to get married, both sides have to do a one.

How could Xu Xiuyuan disagree! The woman has to pay half of the money, but the face makes the man make a net profit, why not?

No, before evening, a special tent for happy events was set up in the courtyard of the Lin Family Inn, and two temporary earthen stoves were set up.

Hot water is boiling on a stove, and the water is boiling and bubbling up, which is used to scrub the table, wash the stools, and iron the dishes, chopsticks and dishes used at noon.

Although the engagement is not external, the average family has at most two tables of banquets for the engagement: one table for the man and one table for the woman. Men and women with inferior conditions can get by by setting up a table together.

can't stand Xu Suizhu's family and friend group!

For example, Mrs. Liang, who was going back to Kyoto after returning from a trip, heard that the Red Lotus girl, who had met for a short time but had a good conversation, was going to get engaged, insisted on staying and drinking their engagement wine before leaving.

If she doesn't leave, Xu Youdu will be happy to stay for a few more days with her son, and Liang Dashao ...... Ahem, no voice, ignore.

Another example is Mrs. Fu, who came to the fjord by helicopter not long ago to see her granddaughter, and also heard that Mrs. Lu's in-laws were getting engaged, and Mrs. Fu, who wanted to stay for a few more days to accompany her granddaughter, had even more reason not to hurry back to Beijing and talked to her husband on the phone. The next day, Patriarch Fu also arrived with a bunch of congratulatory gifts...... In this way, there is no three or five tables to sit down.

So you have to borrow tables, chairs, benches, dishes, chopsticks, and chopsticks, and you can't scrub and disinfect them. So, all afternoon, this pot has been boiling water and scrubbing and scrubbing......

Another pot is waiting to kill the pig and remove the hair.

It's those chickens, ducks, geese, etc., Wu Meili slaughtered and cut them directly on Fuju Island, froze them with big ice cubes, and waited for Lin Jianbing to go to Fuling Island to pick up Xu Tiejun and his party back, and then bring them by the way.

Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.

Fortunately, there are many people with great strength, and everyone acts separately, one person is responsible for one or two things, and by eight or nine o'clock in the evening, except for the cook, who also needs to prepare a few time-consuming and labor-intensive dishes, the others can finally take a breath.

That night, except for Lin Yujuan's family and Ming'er's bride-to-be Qu Honglian's family, who had to return to the Platinum Coast, everyone else stayed at the Lin Family Inn.

"Huang Suyun shouldn't come to destroy, right?" Xu Xiuyuan pulled her niece's arm and asked uneasily, "I've been carrying my heart this afternoon, your father is finally willing to come out of the past, and is willing to find someone who knows his heart and soul to spend the rest of his life together, if she dares to come, I have to tear her up!"

"Well, if you don't tear it, I'll tear it. Xu Suizhu shook his claws solemnly.
