Chapter 27: Banqueting

That swamp is usually not patronized, but now there are a lot of people, some people brought by the captain to measure the land, and some villagers who are watching the excitement.

Since seeing Song Xiaoyue's family getting better and better, their family has become the focus of the whole village, and a group of people asked what to do.

Now I want a swamp that no one uses, and there are ridiculers, saying that Song Xiaoyue's family loves to show off, but there are also quietly inquiring, if this swamp can make money, they will do it too.

................

Time passed quietly for several days, and these days there was a holiday for those villagers to go back to plant rice, the villagers worked for the Song family, and the food was very good every day, and they were still a little unaccustomed to eating when they went home for a while.

Song Xiaoyue has been a little worried recently, there are many birds in the space, and she often steals the fish and shrimp in her fish pond to eat, and her heart hurts to death!

Birds breed quickly, but there are not many people who eat them, after all, the method is relatively thin, and roasted birds are not delicious if there is no seasoning, Song Xiaoyue regretted raising birds a little and tried to sell them.

On this day, Song Xiaoyue walked out of the hotel after delivering the goods, and decided to buy a super large fishing net to take into the space to catch birds, the supply and marketing cooperatives did not have the big net she wanted, and finally bought two and merged them into one big net.

When it was evening, I called my father and mother and my eldest sister to my room, and took them into the space to catch birds!

After everyone entered the space, they realized that the birds were indeed overflowing, and a group of birds flew through the black oppressive area, and there were dozens of them in a pocket with a net.

The birds were taken out one by one and placed in a special cage, and the four of them repeated the action they had just done.

The four of them tossed for most of the night, caught seven or eight cages, and although there were still a lot of the rest, they would no longer affect the ecosystem of the entire space, and let the birds fly around.

The four of them lay exhausted by the fish pond, and they couldn't help but laugh when they remembered the ridiculous act just now.

After resting for a while, Song Xiaoyue took them (her) out!

The next day, when Song Xiaoyue went to the hotel to deliver the goods, she brought four big caged birds by the way, she thought that people in the city would not like to eat birds, but the price was beyond imagination, and the sales were not bad.

Song Xiaoyue thought that she might buy a lot of fields in the future, and she considered selling carts and cattle, but now that the means of transportation are not developed, she still has to rely on ox carts to pull goods, although it is worry-free to buy big cows, but it costs money, if you buy small calves, you can put them in the space and slowly raise them, anyway, he has a fixed business now, and he doesn't need so many calves for the time being.

Song Xiaoyue bought calves at the town's cattle market, she didn't have any experience with a cow, so she bought it by feeling.

On the road, I saw someone selling puppies, Su Yuchun had already had the urge to buy them, these puppies are not pet dogs, or ordinary pastoral dogs, and they don't need to eat dog food, they can survive if they eat some rice and vegetable soup, and the caretaker is also very loyal, and she put all the dogs in the space after buying them.

Song Xiaoyue plans to wait until the house is built, and let Song's father be at home, maybe he can be admitted to a university.

Song Hao is now studying more and more seriously, and everyone says that he will be the material for going to college in the future, because accounting is very good-looking, so the family hopes that Song Hao will study accounting in the future.

Song Xiaoyue plans to go to the city to rent a house after this busy period of time, so that Song's father can teach Song Hao to study, and it would be better if he could get a teaching position in the school.

There is also the eldest sister, Song Xing's craftsmanship is very good, and the handicrafts will be very valuable in the future, she can publish books, and she can also teach others how to crochet sweaters.

There is also Li Danian, he does have a talent for carpentry, these days he often takes Xiao Feng to the Wushan Mountains to pick up some good wood to dry to make furniture, the furniture he makes is indeed better than those carpenter shops in the town! I don't know if he does have talent, in short, such a person will not suffer anywhere, and he will simply open a store for him in the future, and then recruit a few apprentices.

Liu Yong is burly and honest, just like the security department of later generations, he can be a bodyguard like this, and he feels very secure just by seeing that chicken.

Xiao Feng has a flexible mind and is articulate, if he cultivates it well, he can be a steward!

Huang San and daylily didn't find anything outstanding for the time being, the biggest advantage of these two people is that they are hard-working, they don't come to work, and it's good to work at home, but there is no way to live when they go out.

If you start a cleaning company in the next generation, employers should like brisk housekeepers.

The butler is indeed a good one, he knows a lot about everything, and he will be a rare good assistant in the future!

Today is the day to make an appointment with Li Zheng to sign the paperwork, and Song Xiao has to go to the commune, and if it is not done, he will have to go to the relevant departments in the city.

The bike passed through a large pine forest and soon arrived at the commune!

Song Xiaoyue was so satisfied with these people last time, and this time she plans to invite a few more people.

Those people had already known Song Xiaoyue, and when they saw that the people who had just come not long ago had come again, they all gathered around, hoping that they could be bought this time.

Some people slowly walked out of the crowd, some men and women, some old and some young.

Song Xiaoyue picked out 10 of them that looked more pleasing to the eye, and the remaining crooked melons and cracked dates told them to leave!

"Tell me all about it!"

Song Xiaoyue looked at these ten people and motioned for them to talk about their specialties.

"Boss, the villain's name is Wu Dong! I can raise flowers, and I've been raising flowers for half my life!"

It was a man in his forties who spoke, of medium stature and slightly darker skin!

"Boss, the next girl's name is Tang Yan! I can weave and dye cloth, is this a craft?"

This is a little shy girl, fifteen or sixteen years old, sweet in appearance and petite in shape!

"Boss, the villain's name is Ye Yang! I can raise fish, shrimp, crabs, and lotus roots!"

The man who said this was a tall man, about thirty years old!

"Boss, villain Zhu Ping, who has been a bookkeeper, has been a bookkeeper for half his life, and he won't raise anything!"

This is a little embarrassing about an old man about fifty years old, with a goatee, and a tall and thin man!

"Boss, the villain's name is Shi Da Niu, I will dig a well......"

This young man who lowered his head as he spoke was a young man who was as strong as a cow, about twenty years old, and looked honest and honest.

"Boss, villain Han Shui! I used to be a cook, and I know how to cook from the south and the north!"

Sure enough, it's a cook, and I'm also drunk with this fat! Song Xiaoyue secretly vomited in her heart!

This person looks like he is in his thirties, with a fat head and big ears, and his belly looks like he is five or six months pregnant!

"Boss, the villain's name is Luo Zhong, my crops are very good!"

This somewhat serious man looks white and pure, twenty-seven or eighteen years old!

"Boss, little girl Yin Yiyi, I can raise silkworms and plant mulberry trees!"

This girl is very beautiful, with a melon seed face, big eyes, a small mouth, and quite white skin!

"Boss, villain Pan Jiang, I will plant fruit trees. ”

This person is not tall, ordinary in appearance, and he looks quite flexible, thirty years old!

"Boss, villain Seinfeld, I know some kung fu, is this a craft!"

The muscles are strong, the limbs are powerful, the eyes are sharp, and there is a faint murderous aura! This is either a bodyguard or a killer!

This Seinfeld, thirty years old, has very deep facial features, and is a little arrogant!

These ten people are all good, each has their own strengths! Song Xiaoyue asked the housekeeper with her eyes, and the housekeeper nodded slightly!

"Okay, just a few of you. ”

"Your name is Wende, right? I want to hire you to follow me, I don't know if you want to?" Song Xiaoyue looked at a young man who was in charge of sweeping the floor that she had just seen.

She has been here twice, and the floor is very bullish every time, even if it is dirty, she will come to clean it quickly, and she must be a very diligent person.

"I know you pay a lot, but I'm a local, and I still have my grandmother to take care of at home, and she has nothing to rely on when I leave, so it's hard to do......"

That guy was a little hesitant and a little reluctant!

If you're willing to follow me, you can bring your grandmother to my house. Give you two months to think about it! If you want, go to the village to find me, my name is Song Xiaoyue! Remember!"

"Okay! Song Xiaoyue! I remember!"

"Then you go get busy first!"

Song Xiaoyue watched Wende retreat without being humble or arrogant, and she became more and more satisfied with this Wende in her heart!

Song Xiaoyue finished this matter, and went to the commune with the production captain to handle the relevant documents of the swamp, and the other party was happy when she saw her, and asked what she was going to handle this time.

Because I saw it last time, and this time I bought a swamp that no one wanted, so the time to go through the procedures was a little faster than the last time.

Song Xiaoyue is responsible for agreeing with the ten newly recruited people about the price, all of which are inclusive of food and accommodation, but the price will be less than those employees at home now, after all, if the work of the people who came early is the same, their hearts will definitely be unbalanced.

These things went very smoothly, and after getting the relevant procedures, Song Xiaoyue invited everyone to eat a sedan chair, a bowl of sedan chair costs two cents, each of which is very large, and it is pork inside, and everyone is very satisfied.

After eating the dumplings, Song Xiaoyue let these people go back to pack their luggage and arrange the next things, everyone had a new job, so the interest was very high.

Wende also said a few words to Song Xiaoyue, obviously not yet making up his mind whether to work for Song Xiaoyue.

Everyone sat on a board car, and temporarily invited a board car, and finally all of them sat on, Song Xiaoyue rode a bicycle by herself, and the speed would be a little faster than everyone.

Suddenly, one of the newly recruited people took the initiative to command the board car, which was erected with an iron frame behind a bicycle and covered with wooden boards. :

"Boss, let the villain come and catch the car!

"It's okay, you don't have to rush, you can't go back in time to eat out for dinner. ”

Because of the large number of people, there was still a certain distance from the village in the afternoon, so Song Xiaoyue immediately decided to eat outside.

found a small restaurant on the side of the road and ordered two tables of food, Song Xiaoyue, the housekeeper, and the two girls Tang Yan and Yin Yiyi sat at one table, and the remaining eight big men sat at one table.

Everyone usually doesn't eat much oil and water, and their stomachs are already hungry, so as long as they have to eat, they don't pick at all.

After the meal, everyone continued to hurry, there was no hotel outside, and they had to hurry home.

When they entered the village, they sent the production captain home first, and then everyone went home.

The ten newcomers looked at the few broken houses in front of them, all with surprised and amused expressions of disbelief!

Song Xiaoyue was a little embarrassed again, she was just thinking about buying more people to come back, but she didn't think about where to live?

Song Xiaoyue was in embarrassment and couldn't extricate herself, but the housekeeper opened her mouth at this time to solve her urgent need!

"Let's go in first! The main family is building a new house, Shi Da Niu, Song Fei, Ye Yang and Luo Zhong, the four of you go to the back of the house to pick up some wood and come back, everyone will build a wooden shed in this front yard and live together for two or three months, and the little boss will arrange it for you later!"

"Okay! Just do what the butler says! I'll go to the town to buy some tarpaulins and come back to make roofs for you!

"Got it, little boss! Let's go right away!"

Shi Daniu put down his luggage, turned around and went to the back of the house!

"Daylily, come here, take Tang Yan and Yin Yiyi to the eldest sister's room to put away the luggage, and the four of you can live together for a while!"

"Got it! Little boss, two sisters, follow me!"

Daylily took Tang Yan and Yin Yiyi and left!

The remaining four people hurriedly cleaned up the front yard together, and waited for Shi Da Niu to come back with wood and start building a shed!

Out of the space, Song Xiaoyue hurriedly drove her bicycle to the town to buy several pieces of oilcloth, bought some pots and pans, almost everyone came empty-handed, and didn't bring any belongings, although the weather is neither hot nor cold now, but there are several beds to buy, if there is no space, Song Xiaoyue will definitely not be able to move home with so many things.

I couldn't think of what else I needed to buy, so Song Xiaoyue rode back first!

Today, the eighth day of August, is the big day for Song Xiaoyue's family to go to the beam, Song Xiaoyue went to Ping'an Town to deliver the goods, so she went to the pork shop to buy half a pig, 5 pairs of pigs went into the water and bought several firecrackers, ten bags of pastries, ten bags of candy.

On the way, I went into the space and took out two cages of birds, a cage of chickens, and a bucket of fish in the bicycle and pulled them back!

called Han Shui, daylily came out to move things, and instructed Han Shui to cook a few more tables of good dishes at noon. Since I bought Hanshui back a few days ago, my eldest sister doesn't have to cook rice anymore, the rice cooked in Hanshui is so delicious! No matter how simple the dish is, he can cook a different taste!

Song Xiaoyue called Xiao Feng and carried red cloths, pastries, candy, white-flour steamed buns and firecrackers to the new house to prepare for the beams!

When the time came to go up the beam, Song Xiaoyue's new house was surrounded by many adults and children watching the excitement. The craftsmen took some cakes, candy, and steamed buns wrapped in red cloth and hung them at both ends of the beam, Song Xiaoyue put off a firecracker, Li Danian sang the song of Shangliang next to him, and the two craftsmen maintained a horizontal posture, lifted the beam from both ends, stepped on the ladder to climb the steps, and the package hanging on the beam also rose, which is called "Shangliang". After the craftsman placed the beam in the joint at the top of the central column, Song Xiaoyue set off another firecracker to signal the end.

The craftsman also used torches to "shine" all the wood, walls, etc., to ward off evil spirits, which is called "illuminating the beam".

After the beams are photographed, the craftsmen wrap the pastries, steamed buns and sweets inside the packages at both ends of the beams

Throw it up, and the adults and children who are watching the excitement next to it all come forward to grab it, which is called "connecting beams", also called "rolling beams".

After these actions are completed, it is time for noon, and everyone exits the new house and lets the sun shine on the roof trusses, which is called "drying beams".

Song Xiaoyue beckoned all the craftsmen and villagers to go back to the earthen house for a banquet, and everyone walked to Song Xiaoyue's earthen house.

Today, Song Xiaoyue's grandparents and everyone in the uncle's family have also come over. And my grandfather, grandmother, and all my uncles, uncles, cousins, cousins, and nephews are here!

Of course, the captain of the production team also had to be invited, as well as some respected old people in the village, and even villagers who helped build houses.

Mother Song had to ask some aunts who were close to her to help cook together, otherwise she would really be too busy.

For a while, the Long family's earthen houses were about to be crowded!

The house is too small, there are too many people! I had to arrange the banquet in the open space behind Song Xiaoyue's earthen house, fortunately, there are some big trees around, so it will not be very sunny.

The subordinates of Song Xiaoyue's family moved the table, the chair took the chair, the dishes and chopsticks were set and the dishes were served, and they were very busy.

At this time, there was also an uninvited guest, that is, the owner of the hotel, the owner of the hotel also knew that Song Xiaoyue had built a house, and the completion was in the next few days.

"Congratulations, I think this house is really nice, I don't know if there is any place for me, ask for a cup of tea. ”

Song Xiaoyue hurriedly took the congratulatory gift from the boss and handed it to Xiao Feng next to him!

"Of course, there is one, please come to the main table and do it. ”

Song Xiaoyue's Shangliang banquet has 15 tables, and the banquet is excellent! There are crispy chicken, steamed fish, braised pork, fried pork ribs, fat sausages, stewed pork belly, husband and wife lung slices, fried pork liver, salt-baked lake birds, and pork bone and radish soup! A large table full of meat and vegetables, and a large jar of good wine.

When all the guests are gathered, the banquet begins. Some people ate Si Swenwen, some people ate and devoured it; some got together to drink and it was a good deal, and some toasted Song Xiaoyue and her family together! Some children held big chicken legs in their hands, chasing and frolicking around the table, so it was not lively! This Shangliang banquet was eaten until about three or four o'clock in the afternoon, and then the joy was dissolved!

After eating, everyone was consciously cleaning up, but there was an ox cart that entered the village in a mighty way, which was from the Song tiles, so naturally they were left to eat.

On the ninth day of August, Song Xiaoyue's new house began to build a roof, Song Xiaoyue now has enough money, so she has not opened up a new business, and the task of fixing Song Yu every day can also be called to do casually, and she has more time in space.

The rice in the space is ripe and ready to be harvested! The flowers planted by Song Xiaoyue have also begun to sprout, and they can be transplanted into flower pots, and the only medicinal herb in her space is ginseng, which grows very well, and is green.
