Chapter 224: Shangliang
The snow melts. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The sun was shining, but the temperature was much colder than the snow.
Today is a good day.
Because the Ye family's new house is about to hold a wine banquet on the beam.
This is the custom of building houses in the countryside.
Relatives, friends, and neighbors will be present to congratulate them.
When the beams are lowered to the roof, firecrackers are set off to sprinkle sugar.
Usually at this time, many people at the banquet will stand below, scrambling for the sugar dropped from the house.
Whether it is a child or an adult, they will rush to it, and it is very lively.
Originally, Ye Xiaochen was not going to make a big deal, and the relatives and friends at home plus the village did not exceed ten tables.
Today happens to be a Sunday, and there are many children, but many young people have gone out to work.
Many relatives at home are also outside.
But who would have thought that this time Shangliang held a wedding banquet, relatives at home called to congratulate them, and they all said that they would come back to participate.
Ye Xiaochen naturally can't say that the ceremony is enough, just do it, do it big, at most be busy.
In such a family, the relatives of all walks of life, plus Murakami, I am afraid that the total number of tables will exceed thirty.
The Ye family has a lot of relatives, just on my father's side, there are five brothers and three sisters, and on my mother's side, there are three brothers and two sisters.
This is just the most pro-line, and there are other relatives who have not come out of the five suits, such as my father's cousin and cousin!
It's the same with Mom's side.
Even my uncle and uncle's brothers had to come over to participate.
That's more than thirty tables alone.
It's not just that, because Ye Xiaochen also has some business partners who will also come over.
Although I didn't invite them, they didn't know where to get the news, and they congratulated one after another, saying that they would definitely come on the day of the banquet.
So far, there have been at least thirty-five tables.
For the sake of conservatism, let's prepare forty tables, and if there are too many people and there are not enough banquets, then make a joke.
Ye Xiaochen was speechless, isn't it just an ordinary Shangliang banquet, is it necessary to make it so lively?
However, Mom and Dad were very happy, smiling, and extremely happy, because for them, the larger the scale of the banquet, the more guests will participate, and naturally they will have more face!
There was no way, Ye Xiaochen could only get busy.
In fact, he doesn't need to be busy.
Because the banquet has been outsourced.
What's more, there are many people here at home, and there are many people doing things.
At ninety o'clock, the guests came one after another.
The old sister Ye Ying was carrying a bag and was collecting red envelopes.
When you receive a red envelope, you will give a red envelope in return.
This time, please ask for a red envelope, usually ten or twenty yuan.
Because there are so many people, the old sister almost never stops.
As time went on, people who had business dealings began to arrive in cars.
Ye Xiaochen had to go up to greet him in person.
Li Jiaren, Liu Fusheng, Xu Jiao, Master Lin and so on.
There are also some leaders in the county and city.
Wang Shuisheng's family also came.
Fang Yuan and Huang Qiqi came.
Even the research institute has a lot of people.
I don't know how they know.
and Zeng Hongye also sent a secretary over.
By eleven o'clock, there were people inside and out, adding up to more than thirty-five tables.
Cracking sound...
On the eaves of the new house, a sealed firecracker was hung, and as it was ignited, there was an earth-shattering explosion.
All voices were covered by the sound of firecrackers.
Soon, all sorts of sugar fell from the roof as if it were raining.
Many people below have rushed up like crazy.
It's extremely lively.
When the banquet was held at noon, the new house was full of tables and chairs, inside and outside, on the floor, and in the old house.
Thirty-eight tables.
This is definitely not a small scale in the banquet on the farm.
It was lively until more than three o'clock in the afternoon, and Ye Xiaochen sent off the last group of guests.
There are only some relatives left in the family.
Wang Xinyi also followed Wang Shuisheng's family back.
"Chenzi, come, have a few drinks with us."
"Chenzi, you are a big celebrity now, and you are the pride of our Ye family, brother respects you."
"Let's drink well today, and we won't go home if we don't get drunk."
At the wine table, all the people sitting were Ye Xiaochen's cousins, cousins, cousins, and cousins, and there were more than a dozen of them, large and small, and most of them were married.
It's hard to come across something like today.
"Okay, I won't get drunk today."
Ye Xiaochen sat down with a smile.
More than an hour later, Ye Xiaochen drank the last glass of wine, and when he saw that no one could stand up, he smiled.
What an invincible drinker!
At night.
The excitement is not there.
All the tables and stools have long since been moved.
The floor is clean.
Ye Xiaochen's family is registering red envelopes.
Ye Ying took the pen and wrote down the gift money in a notebook seriously.
Now, the gift money for eating wine and banquets is at least 100 yuan, and if you have a good relationship, it may be 200, and if you are a relative at home, 3500 is normal.
"Wow, that's a lot!"
Ye Ying opened a big red envelope, a pile of red bills, counted it, and there were five thousand yuan.
Ye Xiaochen glanced at the name, it was Liu Fusheng's.
Generally speaking, there will definitely be no shortage of red envelopes for cooperative friends like this kind of business.
Next, several more three or five thousand were demolished.
The tallest one is Wang Shuisheng, with a full 10,000 yuan.
It took several hours to open and register two or three hundred red envelopes.
All the gifts add up, there are more than 100,000.
It doesn't seem like much, but it's actually quite a lot.
Because under normal circumstances, if Ye Xiaochen holds a banquet at home, it is generally very good to be able to give a gift of eight or nine thousand yuan.
Now it's more than ten times over.
Of course, a mere 100,000 yuan is nothing to Ye Xiaochen now.
Now that the Yangshi Xianquan store is open, his monthly dividends will definitely increase a lot, and there is no problem with seven or eight million this month.
"Son, so many people came to the Shangliang banquet, many of them are your friends, so you have to return the gift, and your father and I will only take care of the relatives at home and the village."
Mom reminded.
She was afraid that her son would lose his manners and forget these things.
Since people have come to participate in the Shangliang banquet, if they have any happy events in the future, you will naturally have to participate.
"Mom, don't worry, I'll remember this."
Ye Xiaochen nodded.
In the past, because I didn't have many friends, I rarely gave gifts to attend the wedding banquet.
We really need to pay more attention to this.
"Brother, all the records in this book are your friends, you can take it."
Ye Ying handed a notebook to Ye Xiaochen.
Ye Xiaochen nodded, took the notebook, and saw that his parents had gone to sleep, and suddenly asked with a smile: "Doesn't Guo Moyun also have a red envelope, why don't you write it down?" ”
Ye Ying blushed and said, "What he wants to remember, you don't have to worry about it anyway." ”
"Okay, okay, I don't care."
Ye Xiaochen said with a smile.
"The money is for you."
Ye Ying put a few wades of money in a paper bag and was about to hand them to Ye Xiaochen.
"You can take it and use it."
Ye Xiaochen waved his hand and walked out with a notebook.
Ye Ying was slightly stunned when she saw the paper bag in her hand, and immediately put it into her bag.
