As for the Wu family, it is natural to sit Wu Yugui and Wu Wang's family, and there are also two elders in the Wu family, and there is also a table in the outer room of the new house, and the close relatives of the bride's family are seated, Lian Man'er, Zhang Caiyun, Lian Ye'er, Zhao's, Zhang Wang's, Wu Wang's, and Xiaolong, Xiaohu, etc. are sitting at this table.

When the house is not enough, the banquet is usually placed in the open-air courtyard. However, now it is the winter moon, the weather is cold, and the Wu family strives to pay attention to this happy event, so in addition to borrowing a few houses from neighbors, they also temporarily set up a simple shed to put down the banquet.

The banquets of these dozens of tables are entertaining the guests from the Wu family's side, as well as the villagers who are in the thirty-mile camp to add makeup to Lian Zhi'er. In addition, the banquets arranged by the restaurant are also full, including Wang Juren's family, Wang Youheng, Lao Huang, etc., as well as Wulang's classmates and friends, and the official faces of the county yamen who have made friends with the Lian and Wu families, as well as the squires of various shops and villages and towns in Jinyang County.

Shopkeeper Jiang and Wu Yuchang were two guests in the restaurant, and the shopkeeper Wu did not sit at the table, helping to take care of the front and back, and Wulang took Xiao Qi to sit on the table in the restaurant to accompany the guests.

In the midst of another deafening sound of firecrackers, feasts were held everywhere. Wu Jiaxing naturally wanted to toast at various tables, while Lian Zhi'er sat peacefully in the new room. Several daughters-in-law sent by the Wu family to accompany the conversation asked Zhang Wang and Hu to persuade them to go to the banquet, and only the people of her mother's family were left, and Lian Zhi'er became more and more comfortable.

In the morning, everyone didn't eat well, and even Zhi'er ate very little, so I was a little hungry at this time. In front of my mother's family, there are not so many rules. Waiting for all the dishes to be served, Lian Man'er simply pulled Lian Zhi'er out and let her sit beside her, and the people at the table ate the table with a smile and laughter

The Wu family's banquet noodles are extremely sumptuous, what croquettes, chicken, duck, fish elbows, etc. are naturally available, and there are several kinds of jīng dishes that are rare in winter, some of which are supplied by the Lian family, and some of which are specially bought by the Wu family from the county seat at a large price.

During the banquet, everyone praised the Wu family's banquet for being decent and sumptuous.

At the same time, even the old house was in the house

On the kang, two tables were crowded side by side with plates and bowls, all kinds of dishes were steaming fragrantly, and there were two large basins next to the table.

The people sent by the Wu family to deliver the banquet put everything away, smiled a few kind words, and said that they would come to pick up the guy's business later, and left.

The old man and Zhou sat on the kang, watching the people who sent them to the table leave, and the smile on the old man's face disappeared little by little. Zhou sat cross-legged, looked at the table full of food, and then looked at Old Man Lian, then lowered his head and closed his eyes fiercely.

The old couple didn't speak, but even Shouyi couldn't wait.

"Huh! This seat is really hard! Lian Shouyi stood on the ground, his eyes looking at the dishes on the table and barely taking his eyes off it, "Dad, let's wait for something to eat, otherwise it will be cold for a while, and it won't taste good."

"It's not like that, let's eat it quickly. The step-grandfather's daughter-in-law didn't hurry up and brought the dishes and chopsticks. He looked at the banquet and swallowed his saliva, while calling Jiang Shi with a big grin, asking her where to go to the rice bowl and chopsticks.

Although the others didn't speak, they all stood at the table, waiting for the old man to speak and go to the table to eat.

I have to say that although even the words of the old man and the Zhou family are not as useful as in the past, the majesty and the power of the rules that have always been set are still there, no matter what, without this old couple to speak, no one will go to the table and move chopsticks.

Even the old man didn't know what he was thinking, he didn't speak, and his eyes were a little dull.

"Mother!" Lian Shouyi shouted Zhou.

Zhou glanced at the children and grandchildren standing at the dinner table, and then at Old Man Lian, she decided to be the master for Old Man Lian.

"The second daughter-in-law, step-granddaughter-in-law, go get the dishes and chopsticks." Zhou waved his hand and commanded.

Shi couldn't wait for this sound, and walked out more neatly than Jiang's.

"What are you doing, I usually call her like a deaf person, and I can't say anything for a long time. It's to see the pro who eats! What to do, what not to eat, what not enough to eat. Zhou straightened his waist and scolded at He's back.

Lian Shouyi stood next to the edge of the kang, and secretly stretched out his hand, wanting to open the basin to see what was inside.

Zhou's eyes were quick, he stepped forward, and raised his hand to hit the back of Lian Shouyi's hand. Lian Shouyi sighed, smiled and retracted his hand. Only then did Zhou open the curtain on the basin, and there were two pots, one was a pot full of white rice, and the other was Xuan Tengteng's white steamed buns.

There was a gasp in the room.

Zhou's face remained unchanged, but there was a flash of joy in his eyes.

He and Jiang brought dishes and chopsticks and placed them on the table.

"What are you still doing, please Buddha. Let's get to the table. Zhou hugged the two rice bowls to his side, and then pulled the old man again, and said impatiently. Ah" is different from Zhou's jīng, even the old man was a little wilted, and was pulled by Zhou, as if in a dream, so he followed Zhou's hand and sat down next to the table.

Lian Shouren, Lian Shouyi, He Shi, Shilang, Liulang, Lian Ya'er, Lian Duo'er, Da Niuniu, Lian Jizu, and Jiang Shi all went to the kang and sat down next to the table.

"Second daughter-in-law, you go to Daowan-chan." Zhou watched He's butt fall on the kang, so he commanded with a calm face.

"Huh?" He's buttocks moved on the kang, and she didn't want to go, so she supported Lian Ya'er. "Ya'er, I didn't hear your words, go to the knife bowl sauce, hurry up."

"I told you to go, didn't you hear?" Zhou's eyes immediately widened, "What's the matter, you're too expensive, I can't call you."

You're going to be clever enough to summon people. Ya'er, don't move, just let her go. ”

Zhou's golden bamboo Lian Ya'er, while looking at He with a calm face, did not speak. This is clear, He doesn't listen to her call, so no one wants to eat with chopsticks.

The old mansion still implements the meal distribution system, and no matter what time it is, the Zhou family firmly holds the power of meal distribution in his own hands. Now this sumptuous table is a great opportunity for the Zhou family to show and exercise the power in their hands, and she certainly will not miss such a good opportunity to take advantage of people.

"Go, hurry, I'm afraid I won't be able to eat when I come back?" Lian Shouyi scolded He Shi and told He Shi, "Go and come back quickly." ”

He couldn't, so he had to get off the kang again and run out of the knife sauce.

Jiang put all the rice bowls in front of Zhou, and those white rice and white steamed buns, of course, had to be distributed by Zhou's for everyone to eat.

Zhou picked up the bowl and wanted to serve rice to Old Man Lian, while glancing at the food on the table, she suddenly put the rice bowl down again.

"step-grandfather daughter-in-law, go get some big bowls." Zhou commanded.

When eating, Jiang has never been on the kang, but just sits on the edge of the kang obliquely, so that it is convenient to go back and forth. She listened to Zhou's words, and although she didn't know what Zhou was going to do, she obediently went to the outhouse and brought in a few large bowls.

Zhou took chopsticks and sandwiched most of the best fish, meat dishes and meatballs on the table into several large bowls. The meal was so hearty, it would be too wasteful to eat it all at once, so Zhou saved half of the good meal and planned to eat it slowly in the next few meals.

It is rare to have such a sumptuous table, and even Shouyi thought that he could have a good tooth sacrifice today, and he opened it to eat a full meal, but he didn't expect Zhou's to be like this, and suddenly a feeling of dissatisfaction spread on the dinner table.

"Mother, someone sent this table to let us have a good meal." Lian Shouyi couldn't help but speak, "What rare food do you have, you send someone to tell the fourth child and ask him to send it to you separately." Anyway, he has money, and the old Wu family also has money. … ・・・We are bitter, we don't have a little oil and water in our stomachs, just this meal, or someone sent it, can't we eat it well? ”

"What else do you want to eat?" Zhou reprimanded without raising his head, while leaving the dishes for Jiang to send to the bowl shelves in the outhouse. If it is freezing today, these vegetables can be stored in the outhouse for several days.

"How big your belly is, it's not enough for you to eat. Otherwise, I'll let you eat alone, neither I nor your father will eat, do you think it's okay? After Jiang took out all the dishes, Zhou raised his head and glared at Lian Shouyi, not yīn and impotent.

Even Shouyi's mouth squirmed, and at this time, he didn't dare to provoke the Zhou family too much.

“… ・・・My father should go to the banquet, and there are step-ancestors and step-grandfathers and daughters-in-law, you should also go to the banquet......" Lian Shouyi muttered, the implication is that if these people go to the Wu family to sit at the table, the banquet sent by this is the few mouthfuls left in the family to eat, which is naturally more relaxed.

"Eat, eat, what are you waiting for?" Old Man Lian spoke suddenly, interrupting Lian Shouyi's muttering. Then, he picked up the rice bowl in front of him, but found that the bowl was empty, so he said to Zhou, "Why don't you give me rice?" ”

"That's it." Zhou hurriedly took the rice bowl in Old Man Lian's hand, filled a bowl of white rice, and put it in front of Old Man Lian.

"Step-grandfather daughter-in-law, bring the pot of rice we cooked in the morning." Zhou instructed Jiang again.

When Jiang brought a pot of sorghum rice, Zhou was busy again, she kept half of the white rice, picked up the white flour steamed buns one by one and counted them, and also kept half of them, and then mixed the sorghum rice into the white rice, and then served rice to the family.

Even the old man got a bowl of white rice and two white-flour steamed buns, Lian Shouren, Lian Shouyi, Lian Jizu, Shiro and Liulang all got a bowl of two mixed rice and a white-flour steamed bun, and the rest of the people, except for the big girl who got a white-flour steamed bun, only had a bowl of rice mixed with two pairs, and there were no white-flour steamed buns.

Happy Dragon Boat Festival, everyone.
