Chapter 182: And After

182. And after

Seeing that her mother was embarrassed, Tang Ailian stood up again: "I have already prepared the wine!"

Tang Erlong was strange, he obviously saw that there was so much wine in the kitchen, how could there be wine that had not been taken out?

Who knew that Tang Ailian turned around and entered the house, and when she came out, she was already holding a large jar of thirty catties of wine in her hand: "This wine pipe is enough, and it is guaranteed to be better than the bottled Sanhua that everyone drank just now." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”

Erlong opened his eyes and was unconvinced: "You are obviously bulk wine, how can it be better than bottled?"

"I'm not in bulk, I'm in jar. It was given by my master, and each catty is worth hundreds of yuan, which is much better than what you just drunk. Tang Ailian slapped open the mud seal as she spoke, and a mellow fragrance immediately wafted out.

She hummed in her heart, this is a good wine she bought in the other world, and it costs a gold coin to buy a jar.

As soon as the drinker smells this wine, he immediately knows that it is a good wine, not to mention, the bottled Sanhua is only more than five yuan a catty, and people are more than 100 yuan a catty.

Tang Erlong, who wanted to stir up trouble, muttered: "You said that a hundred yuan a catty really costs a hundred yuan a catty." But he didn't dare to stir up trouble anymore.

After eating, it was finally time for everyone to offer their birthday gifts.

It was the little daddy who presided over the birthday offering, and as soon as he said a few words, Tang Erlong took advantage of the wine to shout again: "Birthday gift, the big house will be offered first, let's follow!"

Hmph, before the big room undertook the banquet, there must have been no birthday gifts!

Liu Xiujuan was a little dumbfounded, wasn't their big room in charge of the banquet? Why do you still have to offer a birthday gift?

As soon as everyone saw Liu Xiujuan's expression, they knew that Liu Xiujuan had not prepared a birthday gift.

Tang Erlong shouted loudly: "Sister-in-law, haven't you prepared a birthday gift? The eldest brother is not at home, how can you forget your father's birthday gift?"

This old man celebrates his birthday, and the big house has not prepared a birthday gift, but he was poked in the back when he said it.

Liu Xiujuan couldn't help but defend: "Our birthday gift is today's banquet. ”

When the guests heard this, it turned out that this banquet was undertaken by Dalong, and since they had already undertaken the birthday banquet, it was reasonable to say that there was no other birthday gift. In general, it is customary in rural areas that the son who is responsible for the birthday banquet does not need to offer a birthday gift.

Who knows, Xiaolong was strange: "Didn't you say that today's banquet was padded by the eldest brother first, and then shared by the three brothers?"

As soon as Xiaolong said this, Liu Xiujuan's face darkened, because Mrs. Tang made it very clear to Liu Xiujuan that they were in charge of the banquet. Moreover, this birthday banquet has always been paid for by the big house, so they did not prepare another birthday gift, you know, this banquet is much more than the birthday gift money.

To hold a table banquet, there must be four kinds of chicken, duck and fish, plus sugar, wine and rice, etc., at least it will cost more than 30 yuan a table, and today their banquet is unusual, there are mountain delicacies and wild game, just that wild boar and a wild goat, I am afraid it will be hundreds of yuan, and the monkey head equivalent to bird's nest, plus a jar of hundreds of yuan and a pound of wine, today's banquet is a big face for Old Man Tang.

If the big house is to bear this banquet alone, no one can compare to this gift.

But what did Xiaolong say? Liu Xiujuan is not afraid that her brother will not share it now, but she has not prepared another birthday gift at all, what can I do?

Tang Erlong saw Liu Xiujuan's face on Tuesday, and smiled secretly in his heart: This time, Dafang can't get a birthday gift, but it will be humiliating.

Tang Erlong was just about to speak, but Liu Xiujuan asked Xiaolong sharply: "Xiaolong, who told you that this banquet was shared equally by the three brothers?"

Xiaolong wondered: "It was the second brother who told me, did I say it wrong?"

Liu Xiujuan looked at Tang Erlong: "Is it true?" Erlong, are you sure that the money for this banquet is shared among the three brothers?"

Tang Erlong was very angry that Liu Xiujuan said this, he didn't really plan to pay for this banquet, and the person who shared the banquet money was not him, but the third child, and he could pretend not to know when the time came, and not to bear the banquet money.

But now Liu Xiujuan's question made him a little unable to get off the stage, he wanted to say that he hadn't said it, then his previous arrangements would be in vain, and let the guests know that the big room alone bears the money for the banquet, and the big room is beautiful, you must know that today's banquet is too good, and the old man is very satisfied.

But if he admits that he said it, he will share the money for the banquet. Today's banquet costs hundreds of yuan, and with so much extra money out of thin air, how can he be willing?

Forget it, let's admit it, at least let yourself have light in front of your eyes first, and you can embarrass the big house.

Erlong didn't really plan to pay for the banquet, the old lady had already said that he would let the boss bear it alone, and let the old lady say it when the time came, it was not borne by the big house, and then it would really make him dumb and bitter.

It can not only make the boss suffer a dumb loss, but also stain the light of this banquet, and make the boss ugly!

Tang Erlong quickly made a decision, nodded and said, "I said it, our father is so old, it's not easy to have a birthday, so we should naturally bear it together as three brothers." ”

Liu Xiujuan saw that Tang Erlong actually admitted that he said it in order to make her ugly, and couldn't help but be blindfolded, isn't he afraid of paying money?

She is willing, as long as Erlong admits that this banquet is undertaken by the big house, she naturally does not need to give a birthday gift. She really didn't prepare a birthday gift.

She couldn't get off the stage a bit.

Tang Erlong and Zhou Feng were proud in his heart: the old man has a big birthday, but the big house has not prepared a birthday gift, which is ugly.

Tang Ailian, who was standing on the side, suddenly smiled: "It turned out that the second uncle made the decision later, but my grandmother told my mother that our big house would bear it alone." The second uncle is really generous, so let's settle the account after the banquet. ”

When Tang Erlong heard Tang Ailian's demeanor, he suddenly felt a little uneasy in his heart, as if there was something he hadn't calculated, and he was going to suffer.

He glanced at the old lady, but found that the old man's face was a little stinky.

The second child is not only ugly in the big house, but also the face of the old man. He is a famous person in the whole village to save face, and originally felt that he had a lot of face because of today's birthday banquet, but now, the eldest daughter-in-law actually did not prepare a birthday gift, which made the old man's face go where to go?

At this moment, I heard Tang Ailian say, "As for the birthday gift—"

Comrade Feng Ming, who had been silent, suddenly spoke: "Our big house's birthday gift is here." With that, he directly took out a box and respectfully presented it to Old Man Tang.

Old Man Tang opened the box a little confused, only to see that inside was a whole pipe carved from jade. His hand shook, and he almost dropped the jade pipe, and hurriedly took it: This pipe is too valuable.
