Xu Zhang's carrying the fire basket in front, Xu Jiaojiao and others were lifting, lifting, picking, and carrying in the back, and in the roar of firecrackers, they walked towards the new house.

Xu Zhangshi sent the fireworks into the new stove, put firewood on the shelf, and steamed the rice in the retort until it was steaming.

This means that the "fireworks" have passed.

The bigger the smoke, the greater the steam, which means that the more prosperous the incense of the owner, and the more children and grandchildren will be blessed in the future, and the fireworks will continue. Picking firewood into the door means that the owner's fortune has arrived. The large green bamboos placed on both sides of the gate indicate that the future days of the owner are like spring bamboo shoots, which are higher and stronger, and are stronger year by year. The ladder erected on the eaves indicates that from now on, the proprietor's production, life, wealth, career, study, etc. are like a short man climbing the ladder, rising step by step.

The next step is the feast......

At this moment, a group of people came over on the road. Xu Youde, who rushed over, was stunned for a moment, isn't this leader Luo's father?

It wasn't this person who made him stunned, but this group of people, all of whom belonged to the Luo family! Eleven or twelve!

Father Luo laughed, shouted "Congratulations", and walked over quickly.

Xu Darong looked at this group of people all empty-handed, and Daddy Luo was carrying a small package in his hand, which looked like a pound of millet, and his face couldn't help twitching......

But all the people who come are guests, and Xu Youde naturally will not drive people and welcome people into the table.

After a while, Doctor Sun of the Rejuvenation Hall in the town also arrived with Xiao Wanzi and gave a congratulatory gift of two taels of silver. Dr. Sun is a celebrity, and many people greeted him warmly. However, as soon as Doctor Sun and Xiao Wanzi arrived, they rushed to Xu Jiaojiao's side, which made Xu Darong, who was noble and hospitable, a little uncertain.

"Alas, junior sister, the house is beautifully built." Doctor Sun walked around the new house and said, "But according to me, you'd better find a house in the town, so it's more convenient to sit for a doctor......

In this way, Doctor Sun nagged a few times, and he always felt that with Xu Jiaojiao's opportunity and talent, it would be a pity not to practice medicine specifically, and he would waste his skills.

Xu Jiaojiao smiled silently. The study of acupuncture is to drive ducks to the shelves, and I have no choice but to think about some other knowledge, but also for the sake of a better and faster recovery for my family. She hadn't thought about making a living as a doctor, at least not yet.

A few people chatted about some gossip and exchanged medical problems, and suddenly heard someone outside shouting, "Another distinguished guest is coming!" ”

Xu Jiaojiao asked Doctor Sun and the two to sit down, and rushed out to take a look, it turned out to be the county seat's manager, and there was a big carriage behind him.

"Congratulations!" Steward He shouted from afar, "Uncle, aunt, eldest lady, my boss is too far away to come, He has the right to be the representative, congratulations on moving to a new house, good luck!" ”

"Rejoice and rejoice, the shopkeeper He came all the way over, bothered." Xu Youde personally stepped forward and welcomed Steward He into the house.

"Hey, wait a minute." He didn't go in, turned around and ordered the two guys who followed to unload the things in the car.

When I lifted the canopy, I saw that it was a set of tables and chairs!

"This ......" Xu Youde was stunned, "This is too precious......"

"Where, where," Steward He said while telling the men to be careful, "this new house is completed, how can there be no tables and chairs, right?" The affairs of the eldest lady's family are the affairs of our He family, adding a set of tables and chairs is just a trivial matter, and the uncle doesn't have to take it to heart. ”

There is no small table for the Eight Immortals, and the side length is almost one meter above, but fortunately, the new house is also built and placed in the hall, which immediately makes people feel that the grade of this house has been raised.

This table of eight immortals is dark red, the panel is shiny, the waist is corseted, the rungs are hollowed out and the moire is carved and carved, looking at it is extravagant, thick, placed there in all directions and stable, square, sharp edges and corners, very upright.

There are also eight high-backed chairs, and the backrests are also designed with a hollow pattern, which looks very sophisticated.

"This is made of fine old mahogany, are you satisfied?" He knocked on the table without showing off, "And these chairs are made of the same wood. If the eldest lady doesn't like it, we can drag it back and change it again, it's not a problem. ”

"I'm very satisfied, but I let Shopkeeper He break the bank." Xu Jiaojiao also admired this set of furniture like everyone else, she didn't have much research on the tables and chairs, but she looked at its shape and was very comfortable, and the workmanship had nothing to say, and the appearance conquered a large number of people in circles.

"What's the cost, as long as the eldest lady is satisfied." Steward He smiled, "In addition, you may still lack beds, chairs, stools or something, we have them, you can pick them another day, as for money or anything, it's not a problem!" If you are tight, you can owe it first, and then you can give it directly to Boss He! ”

Will Boss He charge money for Jiaojiao's chairs and stools? What does this mean is equivalent to giving it away for free.

Xu Jiaojiao smiled, she was not used to taking advantage of nothing, let's talk about it then. At that moment, he invited the steward and his companions to dinner.

The feast began, and all the guests called their friends to find a place to sit down, and when the table was full, they began to eat.

In the countryside, there is generally a banquet for ten adults, and children over ten years old are not considered to be in the position, they are all following the adults, and a part of the food is deducted from the food of their own adults for the children to eat.

Because of the shortage of food in the villages, children are generally not allowed to eat mat noodles, and those who can eat mat noodles are the men in charge of the house, or the women in charge.

If you want to take the children with you, that's fine, then deduct a part of your own food for the children to eat.

Because the number of dishes in a table is limited, especially those large and hard dishes, such as chicken, duck and fish, are arranged according to the head, and there is no excess for one person.

Since ancient times, everyone has followed this tradition.

Those who have their own children are all held by themselves, or stand next to him to eat.

But now, there is a table that is different, that is, Luo's mother's family, the old Luo family.

There were six adults from the old Luo family, two husbands and wives from the old Luo family, the eldest brother and sister-in-law of the Luo family, the second brother and second sister-in-law of the Luo family, and four children.

It's basically a drag.

The family gathered around a table, and the children took their seats.

There was an adult villager next to him who wanted to go up and borrow a seat and eat together, but there was no child to give way.

The man walked away in embarrassment, and had to wait for the next one to pull out the table.

Lao Xu's family is in the east, and when they see this scene, they don't want to open their eyes to see it.

Xu Zhang's temper is big, so he wants to step forward and scold, how can he act like this? Shameless practices?

was pulled by Xu Jiaojiao.

"Forget it, mother, let them eat a banquet noodles and save some face for the fourth brother and sister-in-law, we have prepared a lot of food today."
