Ma Huanhua, the son of Ma Huanchang, the head of Taohualing Village, is getting married, which is a big deal in Taohualing Village. The pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info there is still a week before the village chief's son's big day, and the Ma family has begun to get busy.

There are a total of 86 households in Taohualing Village, of which the Ma family accounts for more than one-third, with 33 households. The Ma family is the largest household in Taohualing Village, and then you have to count the Wu family, with 26 households. In addition to these two large households, there are 8 Cui families, 7 Yang families, 4 Liu families, 4 Zhao families, 2 Wang families, and 2 Guo families. Taohualing Village has these eight surnames, among which the ancestor of the Cui family is the earliest household to build a village in Taohualing, and the age of building the village is relatively old, according to research, it should be the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty. Later, the ancestor of the Ma family came, who helped in the Cui family's field, married the daughter of the Ma family as a daughter-in-law, settled down, and now has become the largest family. Later, at the end of the Ming Dynasty, the ancestors of the Wu family and the ancestors of the Yang family, who were sheltering from the famine, also went to Taohualing Village to live permanently. The rest of the Liu family, the Zhao family, the Wang family, and the Guo family all came to the foot of Taohualing Village during the Republic of China. Like Wang Zheng's family, it was Wang Chengyi, the grandfather of Wang Zheng's father, who fled to Taohualing Village, and the three generations were passed on, and Wang Zheng was the fourth generation.

The number of households in Taohualing Village is small, and there are few happy events held every year, and from the year before last to the present, there is only one happy event for the village chief's family.

When the village chief's family holds a happy event, naturally the whole village will follow it.

In 1993, how much money did the followers have? There are 20 pieces with good relationships, 5 pieces with average relationships, and 3 pieces and 2 pieces anyway. With 10 yuan, you can go to the house of the happy event to drink.

In the restaurant, a table of banquets is less than 100 yuan, plus tobacco, wine, sugar and tea, 130 or 40 yuan is considered good, and it is very face-saving. Moreover, the banquet is not popular in the restaurant in recent years, and the banquet is all stir-fried at home. In this way, the cost of a table of banquets is not even 50 yuan, and the host will not lose money if he drinks for 10 yuan.

In every village, there are several local cooks who are responsible for stir-frying during red and white ceremonies.

In Taohualing Village, the person who works as a native cook is also surnamed Wang, called Wang Panyi. However, although Wang Panyi is also surnamed Wang, he and Wang Zheng are not a family. As the saying goes, seven zhang, eight kings and thirteen lees, the same surname is irrelevant, and it does not mean that they are the same family.

Wang Panyi was also a contractor of the apple orchard in Taohualing Village, and later after the apple orchards were contracted by Wang Xiangzhong, he became a helper of Wang Xiangzhong's apple orchard family.

On the day of the happy event, Ma Huanchang wanted to invite Wang Panyi to go over to stir-fry, so he personally came to Wang Xiangzhong's house to ask for leave for him.

Looking at a newly bought sedan car parked in Wang Xiangzhong's patio, Ma Huanchang shook his head and said, "Oh, Xiang Zhong, we have the first place in Taohualing Village for you!" ”

Hearing someone talking outside the patio, Wang Zheng, who was eating, hurriedly ran out.

"It's the village chief, are you looking for my father?"

"Little Wang Zheng, is your dad at home?" While speaking, Ma Huanchang walked to Wang Zheng's house.

It's six o'clock in the afternoon, and it's already dark.

"Brother Huanchang, come to the house and talk!" Wu Xiufen held Wang Ning's little hand, walked to the front of the building, and stood in front of the sliding door.

"Uncle Village Chief, my father went to sign the contract, and he hasn't come back yet."

Seeing Ma Huanchang walk to the door, Wang Zheng got out of the way and said.

Ma Huanchang nodded, and said as he walked in, "Then I'll wait for him." ”

He walked into the house and saw the dishes and chopsticks on the table, so he said, "Xiang Zhong's family is eating." ”

"Brother Huanchang, have you eaten it, let's eat it together." Wu Xiufen asked with a smile.

"No, you guys from Xiang Zhong's family can eat quickly, I'll sit and wait for Xiang Zhong, and when I go back, I'll have to drink and discuss things with my family."

Wang Ning is now one and a half years old, walks unsteadily, and speaks unclearly. She saw Ma Huanchang sitting on the sofa in her house, and she broke away from her mother's hand and staggered towards Ma Huanchang's coffee table.

Ma Huanchang, Wu Xiufen and Wang Zheng looked at each other and didn't speak, planning to see what Wang Ning was going to do.

I saw Wang Ning walk to the coffee table, touch a box of Taishan cigarettes on the table, and hand it to Ma Huanchang with his little hand.

"Big, smoky, big, smoky."

It turned out that Wang Ning wanted to give Ma Huanchang a cigarette.

When Wu Xiufen saw it, she slapped her thigh happily and laughed.

"Little Wang Ning, you are a few miles more polite than us." Wu Xiufen said with a smile.

Wang Zheng shook his head: "Okay, sister, you will be better than your brother in the future." ”

Ma Huanchang looked surprised and said exaggeratedly: "This is really a dragon born of a dragon and a phoenix, a mouse can make a hole, Xiang Zhong has the ability, and the two children born are also smart, powerful, amazing!" Xiao Wang Ning, what about giving the uncle a cigarette? ”

Wang Ning saw that the other party didn't stretch out his hand, and probably thought that when he took the cigarette out of the box, he actually turned the open cigarette box upside down, and then half a box of Taishan cigarettes fell to the ground with a hula.

"Big, smoke." Wang Ning took an empty cigarette box and handed it to Ma Huanchang.

Come to think of it, now that Wang Xiangzhong's family is coming and going, Wang Xiangzhong and his brother Wang Zheng will let the guests smoke and make tea, and Xiao Wang Ning has learned these etiquettes.

Ma Huanchang saw the smoke scattered all over the ground, and hurriedly stood up and bent down to pick it up in distress.

And Wang Zheng saw that there were some water stains in the place where the smoke was spread, so he hurriedly blocked Ma Huanchang and said, "Forget it, uncle, the smoke is dirty, don't want it." ”

After speaking, Wang Zheng picked up the broom behind the door and swept half a box of Taishan cigarettes into the trash can.

"This, it's a shame."

Wu Xiufen was also a little helpless: "Hey, my man and my son are like this, and they don't know how to live at all." ”

When Ma Huanchang heard this, he immediately expressed different opinions.

"If you can't live and be so rich, what can you do if you can live? This is still the old saying, those who can spend money will make money, like those of us who are reluctant to spend money all day long, they can't keep up with Xiang Zhong's ability when they come. ”

"Look at what Uncle Huanchang said. Brother Huanchang, I haven't asked you what you are looking for Xiang Zhong, why don't I give Xiang Zhong a call? ”

Ma Huanchang waved his hand and said, "Don't call Xiang Zhong, you have to spend phone bills." I came to tell Xiang Zhong that on the day of Donghua's wedding, I thought about asking Panyi to fry the dishes on the banquet for me, and then I wanted to let Panyi rest for a day's work. ”

At this time, Wang Zheng took a new box of Taishan cigarettes from the back room, opened it and handed it to Ma Huanchang.

When Wu Xiufen heard this, she hurriedly said: "I'm still in charge, it's easy to say, the eldest nephew's marriage is important, you just let Panyi bring me a message, you don't have to go there in person." ”

"So how do you say that? It's not a hassle to run, and I can move my legs. ”

At this time, the sound of Wang Xiangzhong's pickup truck came from outside the gate.

"Xiang Zhong is back, let's go out and have a look." Ma Huanchang stood up and walked out.
