Chapter Ninety-Five: Double Happiness (Ask for the First Order)
Friday, January 29, 2021.
Qinghe Village.
At nine o'clock in the evening, a vacant space about thirty meters in front of the Qin family's villa was brightly lit, and more than a dozen chefs were cooking a few dishes necessary for tomorrow's wedding banquet.
These dishes are all specialties of local wedding feasts, and because they are so cumbersome to make, they often have to be prepared a night in advance.
Su Xiaoman looked at the busy master in charge and asked, "Liufu, those big bowls on the long table are stacked three or four layers high, and they look like they are buttoned meat, I don't know if I read it wrong?"
Qin Liufu nodded and smiled: "You read that right, it is indeed the button meat, in the wedding banquet on our side, a big bowl of button meat is an indispensable dish!"
Su Xiaoman exclaimed: "This buckle of meat is piled together, it looks so spectacular, can I take pictures?"
Qin Liufu said with a smile: "It's nothing now, it's just a button of meat, if you want to take pictures, wait for the masters to make the meatballs and egg rolls on the plate, then the scene is spectacular!"
Su Xiaoman said: "This button meat is more common, but the button meat on your side is relatively large, but what are the meat balls and egg rolls?"
Qin Liufu popularized science: "Meatballs are to chop semi-fat and lean pork, mix it with seasonings, and then wrap it into meatballs as big as a child's fist with a thin layer of net oil from the pig, and then steam them." Egg rolls are made by frying eggs into a thin cake shape, then sprinkled with minced meat mixed like meat balls, and then rolled into strips of egg rolls, and then steamed. ”
Su Xiaoman nodded, then looked at the ten cauldrons that were simmering fragrantly, and asked, "What is stewed in that pot? Why did I smell a lotus root?"
Qin Liufu said with a smile: "Yes, the stewed in that pot is our special sweet lotus root, stew it with chopped pork knuckle and lotus root, add enough sugar, stew it in such a big pot for more than ten hours, the taste is absolutely a must, you will know if you taste it tomorrow!"
Su Xiaoman said in surprise: "I didn't expect you to have so many specialties here?"
Qin Liufu said with a smile: "There is also glutinous rice, which is also an indispensable dish at the wedding banquet, people with conditions will wrap pork belly or chicken in glutinous rice, and those who don't have conditions will simply fry glutinous rice." ”
These are all local specialties, Su Xiaoman was very interested in this aspect, and asked, "Are there any other specialties?"
Qin Liufu smiled and said: "In addition to these must-have dishes, there is also a dish with local characteristics, which we call 'bamboo shoot line' here."
Use the best bamboo shoots shredded on our side (this dish bamboo shoots are the key, if it is not the best bamboo shoots made by the locals, but bought casually from the market, it is the soul of this dish), pork shredded, black fungus shredded, and with locally bought vermicelli (this is also very important, this kind of vermicelli is only sold locally, and the vermicelli bought in other places is rotten as soon as it is cooked, and the taste is far worse), if you are not too troublesome, you can also add some garlic shredded.
Then it is made by our authentic rural master, which is absolutely full of color and flavor, and it is a must-have dish for our wedding banquet or New Year's holiday.
Moreover, there are many ways to make this dish, in addition to the ones just mentioned, you can also match shredded meat, shredded bamboo shoots, shredded fungus, shredded white radish, vermicelli, crab meat, sandworms, garlic and white shredded and even fried tofu shredded to make different flavors.
In short, this dish is very particular about the ingredients themselves and the craftsmanship of the master, almost every household in our local area will make this dish, but even if it is the same ingredient combination, the taste made by people who do not choose the right ingredients or are not skilled is very different.
This time, among the chefs invited by my family, there is an expert in making this dish, and all the ingredients are handed over to him to choose personally, and tomorrow you will definitely be able to taste the most authentic 'bamboo shoot line'. ”
"I'm looking forward to it!"
"Look forward to it, although we can't compare with the Zhongshan Road Food Street in the provincial capital, the taste of these specialties is still okay!"
......
Early the next morning.
Nine wedding cars drove from Luan Town to Qinghe Village.
At the front is the wedding company's camera car, which is mainly responsible for filming the wedding process and then making a commemorative disc, and the seven wedding cars in the middle are the Mercedes-Benz of the seven brothers and sisters of the Qin family, and the last luxury bus is also the car prepared by the wedding company.
The drivers are also substitute drivers prepared by the wedding company.
I have to say that the current wedding company is really doing very well, as long as you are willing to spend money, everything will be arranged properly for you, so that you have no worries.
In these wedding cars, in addition to the groom Qin Dabao and the bride Huang Tongtong, there are also the family members of the bride Huang Tongtong, relatives and friends, and her four best friends who have a better relationship are naturally among them.
In addition, there are also a number of beautiful store managers and beautiful clerks in the fruit store, which is naturally agreed and approved by the big boss Qin Liufu, after all, the fruit store has to stop business if it leaves, who can afford this responsibility without the approval of the big boss?
At this time, in one of the Mercedes-Benz wedding cars, Chen Yuanyuan, Jiang Jing, Ye Yingying, and Liu Yiyi, the four beautiful store managers of the fruit store, were chatting with emotion.
"A few months ago, we went to work in the fruit store together, Sister Huang because she was the most beautiful, was arranged by the big boss to be the manager of the flagship store, originally I thought that Sister Huang would start a little higher than us, as long as we show our management talents, maybe there is a chance to catch up with Sister Huang.
But who would have thought that in just a few months, Sister Huang has become the shareholder wife of our fruit store, how can we catch up?" Chen Yuanyuan said with a sigh.
Jiang Jing said jokingly when she heard this: "This is not simple, in addition to the big boss, our fruit store also has a full eight major shareholders, if you exclude the four female shareholders and today's groom, isn't there still three shareholders left!
Liu Yiyi nodded, and said with a smile: "I think Sister Jing is right, Yuanyuan, you are not a good match with our three shareholders, as long as you have that meaning, I believe that the three shareholders will never be able to refuse you!"
Ye Yingying also smiled approvingly: "That's right, Sister Yuanyuan, you don't have to envy Sister Huang, as long as you don't dislike the three shareholders for not being good enough, I am willing to match for you!"
Chen Yuanyuan said speechlessly: "I see if the three of you have itchy skin, dare to joke with me!"
Jiang Jing smiled: "Yuanyuan, what we said is true, but we don't mean to joke!"
Chen Yuanyuan sighed: "Sister Jing, don't make trouble, tell me, what kind of husband do we women have to marry to be happier?"
Liu Yiyi groaned and said: "If you marry a husband with good family conditions, gentle and considerate, and single-minded feelings, if he likes you and you like him, you may live a happier life!"
Jiang Jing smiled and said, "Yiyi, where is this kind of husband, give me a dozen......"
Ye Yingying also shook her head and said: "Yiyi, such a superb husband does not say that it is extinct in the world, but the concept that we can meet is almost zero, so let's face reality!"
Chen Yuanyuan said: "In fact, there are still many men with good family conditions, gentle and considerate, and single-minded feelings, but to meet these conditions at the same time, it is really difficult for him to like you and you like him!"
Jiang Jing said: "Actually, I think it's Sister Huang's choice is quite good, what kind of character Daqin always has, we have all known about it for a while, Sister Huang chose to marry him, and she is destined to be blessed in this life!"
Hearing this, the other three all nodded secretly, women are the strangest animals in the world, what they value most is appearance, and at the same time, the least important thing is appearance.
If it is a man, if a woman is too ugly, no matter how rich she is, not many men are willing to marry her home and be a wife. But if it is replaced by a woman, no matter how ugly the man is, as long as the money is enough, there are a lot of women who are willing to marry.
......
Qinghe Village.
After the relocation ceremony was held, the Qin family's big villa officially began to be used, and at this time, the entire villa was open to relatives and friends, and those relatives and friends who had not had the opportunity to go in and watch since the villa was built poured in, and then they were all stunned by shock.
The relatives and friends of the Qin family were not rich people in the first place, and it was only after Qin Liufu rose this year that he pulled up a group of relatives in the family.
So in terms of vision, these relatives in the family are not good, except for the luxury villas they saw on TV, the big villa of the Qin family is the most luxurious villa they have ever seen in their lives.
So, whether it was Qin's father's relatives or Qin's mother's relatives, they all secretly made up their minds that their family would also strive to build such a big villa next year.
If it was the same as before, they would naturally not have such outrageous ideas, but now their family's income can make the villagers envious to death. This big villa worth millions of dollars, I didn't dare to think about it before, but now I have worked hard for a year and a half, and it is not impossible to realize it.
Especially the third uncle's family, who has enough manpower and started earlier than other relatives, is even more confident and decided to put this matter on the agenda at the beginning of spring next year.
Relatives and friends were touring in the big villa, and in the big open space outside the courtyard of the big villa, twenty or thirty master spoons were also busy.
As for the people who work for the master of the spoon, there are basically the little daughters-in-law of the families in the village, who are responsible for washing dishes, washing vegetables, washing ginger, peeling garlic and other small chores.
Originally, when there was a wedding in the countryside, the man's family was counted as one, and they were basically so busy that their feet did not touch the ground.
But the Qin family's wedding is different, the money is in place, the wedding company is responsible for the wedding process, and the experienced chefs are responsible for the wine and food, even if it is all kinds of chores, they are also taken care of by the little daughters-in-law in the village.
So, Father Qin, who should be the busiest person, didn't have to do anything, holding a hookah with a red face, and bragging with his relatives and friends of the same generation.
Mother Qin also couldn't find anything to do, so she could only find the third aunt and six mothers-in-law to chat with melon seeds.
Qin Dabao is not the groom, just on the way back with the bride, Qin Erying rarely came back, and he was chatting with a few sisters who grew up together in the village.
Qin Sangui, Qin Sihai, and Qin Wufeng stood in a more conspicuous position in the courtyard in a scattered manner, dealing with some trivial things at any time, such as taking an socket, taking a kettle, and the like.
Qin Liufu naturally didn't need to say much, he was accompanying Su Xiaoman around!
After all, it was the first time for Su Xiaoman to participate in the wedding banquet in the countryside of Gui Province, and everything felt very novel, and Qin Liufu was her professional commentator.
And Qin Qiyue, Qin Baxing, and Qin Jiuzhu are taking pictures or short videos everywhere with their mobile phones, and they come to the circle of friends every ten or eight minutes to swipe the screen, and they are having a lot of fun!
When the time pointed to 10:32 a.m., suddenly firecrackers rang out and the lion dance team of the wedding company instantly moved, attracting everyone's attention.
At this moment, experienced people know that it must be the groom who brought the bride back today!
