Chapter 66: The Banquet

July 18.

Zhong Dashan's house was lively early in the morning, and people who came would more or less carry congratulatory gifts.

In Zhongjia Village, the host of a happy event invites guests to dinner, and everyone does not need to follow the heavy gifts, just take some things that are often in the house.

Jin Mo is the first time that the eldest girl has been on the sedan chair, and she doesn't know the Tao at all.

But she knows that in modern times, getting married, having children, and moving to a new house are all courtesy, and this gift is not small.

When I saw that the people who came were holding their own eggs and pickles, I was stunned for a moment, and immediately beckoned people to come into the house or, or if I wanted to walk around by myself, I could also take a look in the yard.

Today she is the master, originally she was not going to be in charge, but she promised the Qin shopkeeper of Shiweixuan before, and the guests at home would definitely invite him and Chef You, so the dishes on the table of the Qin shopkeeper today have to be in charge of her personally, she is worried that they will not be used to the meals made by their aunts.

Since you have invited people, you naturally want to treat people with good wine and food.

Shopkeeper Qin and Chef You were sent to Zhong's house by Xiao Er in a carriage, and as soon as the people in the village saw the visitor, their voices became a lot quieter, and their eyes changed again when they saw Zhong Dashan, and the person who came saw that he had an identity, when did Zhong Dashan meet such a big man.

Look at what they're wearing, it's silk, my boys, they can't afford a single garment on them for a year.

Zhong Dashan was busy like a spinning top today, he didn't stop, and when he saw the two of Qin's shopkeepers, he immediately welcomed them to the room specially prepared for them, they were distinguished guests, so it was naturally impossible to sit with the villagers, he greeted the village chief and several clan elders in advance, and they were accompanied.

The village chief and several clan elders were excited at first, but in the end they were worried, worried that the reception would not be good in the end, and they would make jokes.

Zhong Dashan listened to the words of the clan elder, and finally asked the village chief, who often ran to the yamen, and was considered well-informed, so he took the lead.

The village chief looked bitter, he really didn't want to take on this good thing, but he couldn't refuse, if Zhong Dashan didn't think about him, he wouldn't give him such an important matter, and in the end he could only bite the bullet.

After almost everyone arrived, Jin Mo began to let Aunt Tang, sister-in-law, Aunt Wang, and the two sisters-in-law of the Wang family start to serve food.

When the villagers saw the dishes served, their eyes widened one by one, and their faces were in disbelief.

Look, look, this oil and water~~ is too much! A chicken, a duck, a braised pork, a stir-fried eel, a plate of crab roe, a plate of cold cucumber, a shredded eggplant, a fried greens, a cold wild vegetables, a vinegared cabbage, and a basket of steamed buns.

"There are two big barrels of soup on here, and everyone can serve their own soup if they want to." As soon as Fang said that there was still soup, the big guy's eyes lit up, this Zhong Dashan's day was simply a fairy day, you look at these dishes, ordinary people can't eat so good during the New Year.

Even those who have a little family background don't dare to do this, look at the people who come to the Zhong family to eat at the banquet, not to mention there are hundreds of people, this is not a small amount, even if it is a table of meat, it will cost a lot of silver, not to mention that there are four hard dishes on this table.

There was not a single person present who was not shocked, and of course, there were many who were jealous.

Jiang belongs to the latter, when she saw these big dishes on the table, she didn't have any appetite at all, she was so distressed that she couldn't do it, it was all silver, if she hadn't broken the relationship, how could she make them so huo, they were all from a village, they could eat casually, how could they use it so richly.

After glancing at her eldest brother's granddaughter and niece beside her, the depression just now disappeared, the niece wants to have a figure, and her face is no worse than Jin Mo, and she can't hook Zhong Dashan, that is a fool, she has tasted the things of men and women, and she can bear it!

When Lin saw these dishes, he was also very aggrieved, and he exchanged these dishes for money, which was enough for his son's books for a long time, and he didn't know if his son could pass this time, if he couldn't pass the Xiucai exam this year, his son would have to wait another three years before he could add the Xiucai exam.

"Look at what, don't hurry up and eat, or it's all gone." Zhong Dali was halfway through eating, and seeing that Lin was just staring at the dishes on the table, he pushed her and whispered to urge her to hurry up and eat.

Eat and eat, and you will know how much to eat, "How much silver do you say this table gets?" ”

"If you don't eat it, it's gone." This money is not theirs, some eat it quickly, usually very shrewd, why are you confused at this time.

"I won't tell you." Every bite Lin ate was like eating silver, and his heart hurt more and more.

Looking up to find Jin Mo, she hadn't looked at this brother and sister very carefully, but she didn't see anyone after looking around. But when I saw Jiang Meng'er beside my mother-in-law, I felt a lot more comfortable.

Unfortunately, when she passed by her mother-in-law's room that day, she happened to hear their conversation, but she didn't expect her mother-in-law to have such thoughts, but this is a good thing, of course she will not object, but will try her best to match.

After the banquet, Zhong Dashan and Jin Mo came out as the hosts to say a few words, not much, just let them eat and drink well, don't be polite or something like that.

Jiang Meng'er, who was sitting next to Jiang's, looked at Zhong Dashan not far away, his tall body held his clothes a little tightly, his sleeves were half rolled, the tendons on his arms were clearly visible, his resolute face was full of pleasure, even the scar did not look ugly, but gave him a little more manliness, and his eyes were as bright as stars in the night.

Isn't being a woman just asking for a good marriage, she is not very conspicuous in the Jiang family, there is a sister who can speak well, and a younger sister who can be coquettish, coaxing grandma, father, uncle and aunt to smile often, only she has a stupid mouth, she doesn't know anything, she only knows how to work in the kitchen.

This time her aunt found herself and asked her to find a chance to catch up with her former cousin, she was unhappy, that person was full of evil spirits, and his temper was not very good, maybe he would beat his daughter-in-law, but after seeing Zhong Dashan's treatment of Jin Mo, her heart began to waver.

She knew that her aunt was also careful when looking for her, but she was right, these days, which man with money in his hand is clean, and her father secretly has several concubines.

After seeing a lot of her father's like that, she felt that none of the men were unscrupulous, and not all of them were like that, but today, after seeing Zhong Dashan's treatment of Jin Mo, she knew that there was still something different, and she wanted such a good man.

What's more, Zhong Dashan still has money, who doesn't want to be rich and love his daughter-in-law.

When she becomes Zhong Dashan's woman, sister, sister doesn't have to hold her, think about that day, she can wake up with a smile when she falls asleep!

Thinking of this, her heart settled, so she pulled Jiang's sleeve, and nodded at her when Jiang turned his head to look at her!

Jiang Shi immediately laughed when he saw this, that's right, this is her good niece.

As long as it is between Zhong Dashan and Jin Mo, and there is a niece to coax him, I am afraid that there will be no money.

It's not just them who have such bad intentions, but also the Jin family.

The golden leopard's eyes rolled when he saw the dishes on this table, and he was going to sneak into the backyard to take a look later, if only he could get some money.

Recently, his luck has been too bad, he has never won a handful, and his hand is already poor, if he has no money to repay his debts, he is afraid that his hand will not be able to be saved. Thinking of that result, the golden leopard trembled, and after stuffing a few handfuls into his mouth, he went up to the hut and urinated.

There were a lot of people, Zhong Dashan and Jin Mo only said a few short words, and they didn't pay attention to who came, even if they saw it, they wouldn't take it to heart, it was difficult for people to come and drive people out, it is estimated that they also relied on most of the people in the village to come over.

After speaking, Zhong Dashan entered the house of the Qin shopkeeper, as the master, he must be the companion.

Because Jin Mo was a woman, she couldn't serve it, so she went back to the kitchen and joined her aunt, sister-in-law, and Aunt Wang.

"Meng'er, are you ready?" Jiang secretly lowered his head and bit Jiang Meng'er's ear.

Jiang Meng'er's mind was all about the interaction between Zhong Dashan and Jin Mo at this moment, and she didn't hesitate to snort at Jiang Shi.

"When the time comes, you find an opportunity to get close to your cousin, there are many people here, and if someone catches him, he can only be responsible for you, and his daughter-in-law can't say anything!"

"Okay." Thinking that there would be a good life in the future and that there would be someone who loved her, Jiang Meng'er had long been dazzled and dizzy, so naturally what Jiang said was what she said.

Zhong Dashan was drinking happily with Qin's shopkeeper in the room.

"Dashan, your house is well built. Whose idea was this? "Shopkeeper Qin has seen a lot of people, and it can be seen that the achievements of this Zhong Dashan and his daughter-in-law in the future will definitely not be bad, as far as his daughter-in-law's craftsmanship is concerned, Lao You said that if she opens a restaurant, it is estimated that others will not want to have a good business, and this money will be soft. It was impossible for Shi Weixuan to compete with her, and he also wanted to see if they had any plans to open a restaurant, he didn't want to be a competitor with them.

"We're thinking about it together." He said a rough idea, the daughter-in-law simply added it, she added what she wanted, what the daughter-in-law wanted, and he, as a husband, naturally wanted to be satisfied.

"This house has also been built, what are your plans for the future? Is it possible that you still want to go out of the stall by yourself? "Their business is very good, but they earn hard-earned money, and it's not easy to get that little thing.

"My daughter-in-law is going to transfer the stall, she wants to start a new business, and she hasn't decided what to do." Zhong Dashan and Shopkeeper Qin were familiar with each other, and when he asked, he felt that there was nothing he couldn't say, so he didn't hide it.

"Your daughter-in-law's craftsmanship is really nothing to say, with fresh food, you can't forget to eat Weixuan, our young master can say it when he leaves, the price is absolutely fair." Shopkeeper Qin threw himself to the ground with the five bodies that his young master admired, which was too tempting and far-sighted.

"Thank you for being able to afford it, if there is really a good one, you must be the first to find the shopkeeper Qin." You have to take risks when you cooperate with others, it's better to be raw than cooked, this is what the daughter-in-law said, and the food is generous, it doesn't hurt to give a few recipes, and you can make friends, there is nothing better than this.
