Chapter 105: The Ye Family's Wedding Banquet
After going to the Crane Year Hall to deliver the dendrobium orchid, Chen Qianshan hurriedly went to various places to buy all the kitchen utensils needed at home, and after putting them away, he thought about helping on the street. For such a thing as handing out flyers, it's good to have one more person.
As a result, he searched for several streets in a row, and waited for most of the day, but he didn't see Ye Feng and the others. Seeing that it was late and hungry, he went to the noodle restaurant to eat a bowl of noodles. Anyway, there are Ye Feng here, and several people have silver on them, so they don't expect to be hungry.
After eating a bowl of noodles, Chen Qianshan went straight to the ox cart and sat on the ground to wait. This is what the people agreed, if they couldn't find anyone, they would wait here. As a result, after waiting for another half a day, I saw Ye Feng and Qianyan walking towards him with a sullen head.
When they got closer, they looked closely, and their eyes were red, and they seemed to have cried.
Thinking that something bad had happened to the two, and Yin Ping didn't come back with him, Chen Qianshan hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with you?" What about Yin Ping? Why didn't I come back with you? ”
Hearing this, Ye Feng said expressionlessly: "He found his mother and went home with him." But Qianyu didn't have any news at all. ”
It turns out that this is the case, Chen Qianshan said in his heart, no wonder the two of them are unhappy.
Qianyan talked about Yinping's rich mother again, and invited them to eat in Liuyunxuan at noon and other things. This made Chen Qianshan feel a little emotional, Yin Ping was still like a flower child two days ago, dressed in tatters, and he still needed Ye Feng's help.
But who knew that his family was so rich, and he was actually from the capital.
If he hadn't been abducted by Hanako and been exiled for more than ten years, I think his life would be completely different.
Thinking of this, Chen Qianshan said: "I really didn't expect it, his family is actually from the capital." But his luck was really good, but in half a day, he found home all of a sudden. It's a thousand words, this kid ......"
The same people don't have the same fate.
Chen Qianshan's words of emotion reminded Ye Feng.
Before, he was convinced of the words of the wise monk, that is, his master, after all, there was no need for him to lie as a great monk, and it was indeed hard to raise the three of them. As for risking their way out of the hands of human traffickers, it is a great merit.
However, Chen Qianshan's sentence "His family is actually from the capital" completely woke up Ye Feng. When they were just eating, Kang's clearly told them that Yin Ping was abducted by Hanako while shopping in the capital.
And the capital is at least one or two thousand miles away from Qingshan County.
In other words, unless Ye Feng and Xue Dan are both from the capital, otherwise this will not make sense. Because according to the wise monk, he traveled from the capital to the vicinity of the Nameless Temple before he discovered the people of the abduction group.
Now, comparing the words of Kang's and the wise monk, the problem comes, because Kang Bran has explained before that after the general Hanako abducts the child, although it will not be sold in the same place, at least it will not go one or two thousand miles away. Because this is both troublesome and very risky, it is better to walk one or two hundred miles and get rid of it quickly.
Since this is the case, then there should be a person between Kang and the Wise Monk who is lying. If neither of them is lying, is there anything that they misunderstood or don't know yet?
Or, do you want to go to the capital to find relatives?
Thinking like this, Ye Feng only felt that his head was too big. He has saved some silver now, but if he talks about going to the capital, it is far from enough.
However, thinking of the peanuts that were about to ripen, Ye Feng decided to implement the previous plan and completely make the name of peanuts out. Then, he sent another letter to Yin Pingxiu and asked him to help publicize and inquire in the capital.
Ye Feng had been thinking about his life experience, and Qianyan was too tired to lean on Ye Feng and dozed off, so no one spoke along the way.
After returning home, Ye and Chen Jixing were also surprised that they didn't see Yin Ping. When the two of them knew the ins and outs, they began to sigh like Chen Qianshan.
Both of them thought that this Yin Ping's luck was too good. is also looking for relatives, how can you say that people's luck is so good.
However, what they didn't know was that from the south to the north, from the county to the countryside, Kang's had been searching for eleven years.
At the same time, thinking of their daughters, Chen Jixing and Ye were a little depressed. Fortunately, Second Sister Ye will enter the door in a few days, and the Lin family even asked someone to bring a letter to say that when the Ye family finishes the wedding banquet, she will follow Second Sister Ye over.
This made the Ye family nervous, speaking of which, she hadn't seen the Lin family for several months, and she had been worried about her body, and she didn't know that she couldn't help but bear the hardships of this long distance.
Although it is generally not possible for parents to marry their daughters come over, fortunately, the Ye family is here. Lao Tzu Niang lives in the house of her eldest daughter, who has already married, but there is no problem.
Fortunately, Ye Ermei was about to get married, and Ye wholeheartedly helped to find a way, but it diluted the longing for Qianyu. Clear-eyed people know that no matter how much Ye thinks about it, there is no way.
It's better to give birth to a child peacefully and then look for it.
On October 16, early in the morning, Chen Qianshan was dressed decently and waited at the door of Chen Jixing's house early.
When the family prepared large bags of gifts, food, drink, and play, Chen Jixing helped the super-pot-bellied Ye to get into the car.
In order to avoid bumps, Chen Jixing took three quilts directly from the house and spread them on the car, leaving Ye half lying.
Along the way, Chen Qianshan's car was extremely slow, and the reason why he got up so early was to take care of the Ye family. Therefore, although he walked slowly, when he arrived at the Ye family, the time was still very early.
When Father Ye saw Chen Qianshan coming, he hurriedly greeted him with a smile, and there was no more rustiness before. He couldn't be more satisfied with this family business.
Just a few days ago, Chen Qianshan drove the ox cart to Ye's house, and insisted on taking him around the new house, asking for his opinion, and even promising to add anything immediately if he lacked something.
Looking at the spacious, bright and magnificent house in front of him, Father Ye felt happy in his heart. Chen Qianshan prepared the new house as well as possible, which shows that he values this family business more in his heart.
If he wants to say that he is most satisfied with this room, the polished floor in the courtyard is very smooth, which is the most convenient for drying grain, and there is no need to go to the courtyard to compete with others.
If a daughter can marry well, she is naturally happy to be a father.
The two were busy unloading the large bags of gifts in the car, and they piled them up, and Chen Jixing helped Ye get out of the car. As a result, Lin walked out at an unknown time, held his waist, and waited for Ye to get out of the car, and the mother and daughter held hands and began to talk affectionately.
Looking at the two big-bellied women, one old and one young, Daddy Ye suddenly felt very satisfied. During this time, he could be regarded as completely thinking about it, even if the Lin family had another daughter, even if he had no son in the Ye family.
Although it was ugly outside, it was said that he was not filial, and he broke the incense. However, he is now living a really comfortable life.
This is actually a typical loss of face, but the inside. On the other hand, those families who have given birth to sons, especially those who have given birth to several sons, although it sounds good, only the parties themselves know how they are doing.
This is true not only in Yejia Village, but also in Chenjia Village and even in Qingshan County, where the wedding banquet varies depending on whether the daughter is married or the daughter-in-law is married.
Generally speaking, the wedding feast for the party marrying the daughter is generally held in the evening, and only one meal in the evening and one meal the next morning are eaten. Therefore, the dinner party is the main feast.
The main day when Ye Ermei passed the door was on the 18th, so the Ye family set the family wedding banquet on the evening of the 16th and the morning of the 17th. That is to say, as soon as the meal on the morning of the 17th was finished and cleaned up, the family would rush to Chenjia Village.
Of course, according to the etiquette, Lin and Father Ye can't go. There are no men in the Ye family, but they just ask one or two relatives nearby to send Ye Ermei over.
At noon, it was just a simple meal, and everyone began to prepare the main meal for the evening. In order to support the scene, the people from Yaya Township Kitchen came, not only bringing a full set of kitchen utensils, but also several sets of high tables and high benches that Chen Jiwan recently drove out of the farm.
Everyone is experienced, and the meat and vegetables are already ready, so they just need to do it step by step. For a while, the yard was full of joy and busy.
This was originally discussed by everyone a long time ago, no matter who the members of the Duck Duck Country Kitchen made the wedding banquet, they all went over to help, and they didn't take a penny.
And this wedding banquet is still the wedding banquet of Chen Qianshan and Ye Ermei, two veteran employees, everyone naturally does their best, in line with the principle of saving the main family worry and money, everyone is doing their best to strive for perfection, and completely beat the name of Yaya Township Chef.
To say that the people of Yejia Village are no strangers to the Yaya Township Kitchen, after all, they fired their first shot here.
But this time, it's destined to be different.
Because under the guidance of Ye Feng, the Duck Duck Country Chef has recently invented several new dishes, which are definitely something that everyone has never eaten. Speaking of which, this is the first time it has been launched, and it also has the intention of adding luster to the wedding banquet of Chen Qianshan and Ye Ermei.
Therefore, Zhao's family, Da Niu Ma and others felt that this Yejia Village was the blessed land of their duck and duck village kitchen.
When the night was getting darker, the people in the Ye family's courtyard gradually gathered. Under the leadership of Daddy Ye, the elderly people all sat on the high tables and high benches brought by the Yaya Township Chef.
It was the first time for the old people to sit on such a strange-shaped table and chair, and as soon as they sat on it, they immediately realized the benefits of this table. For a while, the old men at the three tables began to talk about the magic of the table.
Chen Jiwan saw that everyone was interested, so he saw the opportunity to come up.
First of all, he complimented a few words of Yejia Village's outstanding people, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, and then he said: "This table is called a high table, and this stool is called a high bench, which is a new thing I have made recently, and it is the most suitable for elderly people to sit on." I believe that all the aunts and uncles have already issued it, after sitting on this table and bench, your legs can be all straight, not aggrieved, and you will not feel numb for a long time. ”
This was also the rhetoric that Ye Feng taught him, and his big cow didn't have any skills. If it is really as Ye Feng said, someone is rare about this table and chair, he will force the big cow to learn.
When you learn to manufacture, you can be regarded as worry-free in this life.
"How much silver do you have for this table and chair?" Someone finally couldn't help but ask.
Hearing this, Chen Jiwan hurriedly replied: "This table and chair are tall and large, and it takes a lot of time and wood to make. I've calculated, it will take at least twenty days to make a set. If you don't paint it, it's a set of one tael of silver, and if you paint it, you need two taels of silver a set. ”
In fact, compared with the prices in the county, the tables and chairs are indeed not expensive, and Chen Jiwan will make hard money.
In other words, there is a lot of timber in the mountains behind Chenjia Village, just because the raw materials don't cost money, he relies on this to make money, and twenty days is not the time required under unfamiliar circumstances.
If you're as skilled as he is, it's only ten days.
The old man thought for a while and said, "Then when you are empty, please make me a set, no need to paint, the croppers don't pay attention to this." ”
In fact, it doesn't cost a tael of silver to paint at all, at most half a tael of silver, and when the time comes, the tables and chairs are bought, and his son can buy the paint himself.
Chen Jiwan hurriedly agreed.
This was the first set of tables and chairs he sold. I believe that with this good start, I will not worry about no business in the future.
When everyone sat down, Da Niu Ma took everyone to serve the food. The Zhao family was widowed, and it was inconvenient to show up at the wedding banquet, so they automatically avoided it and only helped in the backyard.
In a moment, twelve dishes were served on the table one after another.
Seeing that everyone was a little confused, Da Niu's mother stepped forward and said loudly: "Today is the big day of the Ye family's sisters, and our duck and duck village chef has specially studied a few new dishes for everyone to taste. ”
As he spoke, he pointed to the new dishes one by one and introduced: "This is a thousand pages of tofu, which is the most tender and very refreshing; This is black and white cabbage harvested from the deep mountains, with a unique taste and a unique nourishing effect; This is a vegetarian cucumber, which is the most suitable for summer and is also good with wine; This is Songhua egg roast pork, which is added with our secret spices, everyone can eat a little more; It's ......"
No wonder even Aunt Cha is afraid of Da Niu Ma, her eloquence is really powerful.
It's obviously an ordinary dish, but after her introduction, it looks like a famous dish. What kind of secret spices are just some spices that Ye Feng went to the medicine shop to prepare in this time and space, which are still called medicinal materials, and they are finely ground and mixed together.
After the introduction of the big cow mother, everyone began to eat.
Suddenly, some people were surprised that the fungus was dark but so delicious, and some people felt that although the vegetarian cucumber was simple, it was better than the fragrance and flavor, and it was full of flavor. Of course, the most popular is the Songhua egg roast pork.
Because it is a wedding banquet, this dish is very real, the meat is made according to the appearance of braised pork, a big piece, very urgent, a strong sense of satisfaction when you bite it.
Songhua eggs are originally fragrant, and they are also very delicious when eaten alone, but at the moment they have absorbed enough oil, mixed with the taste of the eggs themselves, not to mention how beautiful the taste is.
For a while, everyone ate quickly, and at a glance, the whole courtyard was full of people with their heads bowed.
The men were the happiest because of the reserved dishes such as vegetarian cucumber and roasted pork with Songhua eggs, as well as cold salad pork ears and braised pork, because they found another side dish.
Although braised pork ears and other braised vegetables are delicious and a perfect match with wine, they are not affordable for every meal. However, this cucumber is available in every household, and there are many on the vegetable shelves in the field.
As long as you let your mother-in-law pick two sticks and go home, you can drink two sips after mixing.
Seeing that everyone had eaten for a while, after a while, Chen Qianshan came up to toast under the leadership of his eldest brother Chen Qianshui.
It seems that women still can't show up, Ye Feng thought in his heart. He originally thought that Second Sister Ye would come out with Chen Qianshan to toast.
Chen Qianshan was already handsome, but he deliberately dressed up today, and drank two sips of wine, and his face was flushed for a while, making him even more handsome. When the married man saw that the table was full of men, he made a few jokes.
Chen Qianshui has already married, so he is naturally not afraid, but he is just smiling. Chen Qianshan was ashamed, and his face turned even redder.
Seeing this, the men at the table all smiled, with an expression that you know.
In this way, amid laughter and laughter, the wedding feast did not end until late at night.
After everyone dispersed, Ye Ermei walked out, cleaned up with everyone, and prepared for the wedding banquet tomorrow morning.
Everyone originally had the intention of making fun of her and Chen Qianshan, but Chen Qianshan drank a little too much today, and he had already been helped into the house by Father Ye to rest.
However, Chen Qianshan is not there, and Ye Ermei is still there.
Seeing that all the people here were women, and seeing that there were no outsiders, Da Niu's mother joked to Ye Ermei: "You tell me honestly, when did you and that kid meet each other?" We've been cooking together for so long, and if it weren't for your mother-in-law's words, we wouldn't have found out. ”
Hearing this, Zhao also said: "Yes, it's so good to hide it, even her sister doesn't know about it." ”
Hearing this, Ye Ermei was so ashamed that she said, "The two sisters-in-law spare me", and began to work.
But Ye didn't know when he came out, so when he saw this, he said, "Don't say it, even I'm curious." Previously, my mother said that she would ask someone to show her people, but she refused to live or die, only saying that she was still young and wanted to stay for a few years. Thinking about it now, the two of them probably met at that time. ”
Somehow, Lin also came out and joined the team to help.
Seeing that the two pot-bellied women were there, everyone's topic shifted from Ye Ermei to the stomachs of the two.
Zhao said: "Auntie's pregnancy is so good, look at your belly, yo, it's really sharp, it must be a son." This was the case when I was pregnant with our family Chira. By the way, did you sleep well? ”
Hearing this, Lin said happily: "I also think it's a kid." When she was pregnant with her five sisters before, she didn't vomit or get sleepy. As a result, this fetus tossed me and vomited for four months, which was only a little better some time ago. Also, I am very sleepy and want to sleep while standing. ”
Da Niu's mother said: "No, compared with the girl, if you want to say that this man just loves to toss, he starts to stop when he is in the stomach." ”
Ye was also very happy, because when she went to the Crane Year Hall to check her pulse, Dr. Zhang said that there were two children in her belly, and secondly, that both of them might be children.
However, she didn't even tell Ye Feng this secret.
To say that the fate of people is really incomprehensible, she doesn't come when she wants a son. Now she doesn't think about it anymore, but she came all at once, it's still two.
As for the surprises, I'll save them for the end.
The strength of the crowd is great, and after a while, everyone cleaned up the messy scene and prepared the materials for the next day.
Seeing this, Lin pulled a few people into the house to rest. The male was taken by Father Ye to sleep in other houses in the village.
Now, everyone is like this, if anyone's family has a happy event, the family generally can't live in it. At this time, those who have a spacious place to live at home take the initiative to invite the other party to live at home and give a small red envelope.
Early the next morning, everyone got up early again and began to make a fire to cook and stir-fry. Today's task is actually heavier than last night, because after breakfast and tidying up the house, everyone has to rush back to Chenjia Village to prepare.
Because it was early in the morning, today's dishes were not as greasy as last night's, and most of them were light.
Ye Ermei's noodle soup, which is mixed with big bone broth and full of seasoning, has been very popular as always. With the addition of a few newly cooked dishes, as well as the leftovers from last night, the leaves are sumptuous.
After breakfast, Lin divided the leftovers one by one.
Those who went home with leftovers were all happy, after all, the Ye family was already very enthusiastic about doing this. If you want to say that other families are not well-off, it would be good to be able to eat well at the main banquet, let alone let people take leftovers home.
After doing this, everyone cleaned up, washed, and cleaned up again.
After everything was checked and confirmed, Chen Jiwan drove the ox cart to transport all the kitchenware, tables and chairs, and he had to go back to Chen Qianshan's new home to decorate it first.
The Ye family and the Lin family took Ye Ermei to stay and thoroughly cleaned the house. Chen Qianshan and Ye Ermei worked together without suspicion.
Seeing this, Lin pulled Ye away, entered the house to prepare, and deliberately left a little space for the two.
"If you want to say that this noodle soup this morning, it tastes so good, I still want to eat two bowls of it." Chen Qianshan took the initiative to open the chatterbox. When he saw that the Ye family and the Lin family had entered the house, he knew in his heart that his mother-in-law and eldest sister were creating conditions for the two of them to be alone.
Hearing this, Ye Ermei blushed and said, "Since you like to eat, I will make it for you every day in the future, I'm afraid you will get tired of eating." ”
"No, I like what you do." Chen Qianshan said with a red face.
I have to say that this sentence made Ye Ermei's heart feel sweet and excited. The person in front of her is the person she wants to marry, and they will live together for the rest of their lives. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but glance at it a few more times, but he happened to meet Chen Qianshan's burning gaze unexpectedly.
For a moment, both of them blushed.
It just so happened that Ye came out and asked Ye Ermei to go in and order her dowry.
As a result, I saw both of them there with red faces, and I didn't know what they were thinking. Ye Shi felt a little funny, and deliberately said, "What are you two doing here?" Nor do they speak. ”
Hearing this, Second Sister Ye lowered her head, her face turned even redder, but Chen Qianshan replied: "Sister, that's the case, I think Second Sister's noodle soup is doing well, according to me, when we have savings, we will go to the city to rent a shop and open a noodle restaurant, I think the business will be very good." ”
originally wanted to make fun of the two, but unexpectedly Chen Qianshan said so.
After thinking about it, Ye Shi said: "When you say that, I think this is a good idea." It's just, don't be in a hurry yet, ask the others first. ”
Ye actually wants to say that now they are both cooking in Yaya Township, and they can earn twenty or thirty taels just by cooking for a year, which is considered a high income in ten miles and eight townships.
If you open a shop, you will naturally have to soak in the shop every day, not to mention the hard work, maybe it is better to be a cook, you can feed the chickens and ducks to take care of the family, but also farm.
Chen Qianshan knew Ye's worries in his heart, and he had calculated this account in his heart, so naturally he was just talking.
At that moment, he said that he would definitely listen to Ye's words and go back to think about it.
In this way, Ye felt that Chen Qianshan was really sensible, steady and reliable, and the more he looked at Chen Qianshan, the more pleasing he was.
If Ye Feng was present, he would naturally oppose this approach. After all, in Ye Feng's plan, the next step is to lead Chenjiacun to get rich and build Chenjiacun into a well-known tourist village.
As for opening a shop, you can just open it in the village when the time comes, stay at home, and there is no rent, and all you earn is pure income.
And Ye Feng believes that this day will not be far away.
