Chapter 198: The Eve of the Wedding Banquet (2)

The first guest ushered in by Hailan Villa was Qu Hao's newlywed wife Zhao Wanru, who was beautiful and magnificent, and the single cuihua was amazed.

"If there's anything you need me to do, just say it, don't see it." Zhao Wanru gave Shan Cuihua and Mai Wang a standard blessing ceremony, the movements were beautiful and pleasing to the eye, and Mai Xiaohuan could see that her mother was already a little star in her eyes and obsessed, which was a fan.

"Sister-in-law, we are content if you come, where can we use you to work!" Mai Xiaohuan watched it lively, and said loudly, her mother only cared about appreciating her sister-in-law's beautiful bearing, and left everything else behind.

Zhao Wanru took the brocade tent embroidered with mandarin duck lotus flowers from the maid's hand, which was a gift she gave to the newlyweds, and also made new shoes and socks for Mai Wang and Shan Cuihua.

And your own! Shan Cuihua rubbed her hand on her body before she went to receive the gift, she didn't expect to have her own share.

In the afternoon, the people of the Tang family also arrived, and Tang Xianyou and Bai were very happy when they learned that their daughter-in-law was pregnant, and they wanted to take the little couple back when they discussed with Shan Cuihua.

"My father and sister would have asked me to go back a long time ago, if it weren't for the fact that the second brother was about to get married, I'm afraid I would have been sent away now, it's really the water spilled by the girl who got married!" Mai Xiaofang was also infected by Tang Yujun, complaining like an angry little daughter-in-law.

"We are not far from Pingliang County, it is impossible for you to run back and forth with your body in your arms, let Jun'er come to pick up your in-laws, your brother and sister-in-law, and Xiaohuan will live with you for a while, I believe they are also willing." Bai patted Mai Xiaofang's hand to comfort her, her daughter's family missed her relatives when she just got married, which she could understand.

Tang Xianyou asked about the trial planting of Mai Xiaohuan's new seeds, and also vaguely proposed that he wanted to get some corn and potato seeds.

"I estimate that this year is unlikely, even if Zhou Yue agrees to keep some seeds, it will not be too much, and I will try to set aside some for my relatives next year."

Tang Xianyou also knew that this matter was not up to Mai Xiaohuan herself, so he just told her not to forget her share, the Tang family could wait, not in a hurry.

The day before Mai Yonghai got married, Mai Xiaoyuan and his wife, Huo Dong, Qingcheng County Shou, and Mai's business partners arrived one after another. Mai Liu also came with a few granddaughters from the family who were dressed like flowers and butterflies.

"They...... Are they planning to sing for a while? Mai Xiaofang can probably guess her grandmother's intentions, there are so many rich and powerful people in the family, what if anyone falls in love with the Mai girl?

Xiao Quanzi, who was following behind Mai Xiaohuan, smoked happily: "I said you two sisters, should you two dress up like this, see how much people attract the attention of guests!" ”

"I think I should put a bed and a quilt on you, and a few more big red flowers on your head, didn't your master say that he will listen to me in everything these days?"

"I was wrong, don't laugh again, okay?"

"You'd better remember what you just said, schadenfreude sometimes comes at a cost."

Wu's, Qiao's and Mai's two aunts, ran to the kitchen and shuttled through the busy crowd. The second family was really willing to give the guests food and drink, and the fat pigs alone were slaughtered three, the mutton and beef piles were as high as a hill, and the fruits and snacks were all packed in baskets. Thinking about the days they have spent in the inn these days, the Wu family really wants to catch Mai Xiaohuan and beat her up, and she has to accompany these grievances.

"Tomorrow after the wedding feast, you will kill a pig, slaughter two sheep, and prepare more vegetables, fruits, and snacks."

The housekeeper lowered her head and pouted, and replied with a smile: "We don't count these things, even the master and wife have to ask our girl before they can give orders." ”

It's better to ask the dead girl to go to her mother-in-law and ask her to open her mouth before leaving, and I don't believe that the second family dares not to give it. Mai Qiaoyue's desire to let her son marry her niece came to her heart again, the mountain villa, the land, and the herds of cattle and sheep made the couple look red, and Liang Xingcai had already told her that the three Zhuangzi were worth at least 10,000 taels of silver, and these were all earned by the niece.

It's a pity that his son won't coax the little girl, and he can't say anything when he sees his niece's face blushing, it's not okay to go on like this, in case someone else's family proposes marriage first, he can't remember these things.

It's best to hold a wedding banquet at the second brother's house tomorrow, so that something happens to the son and niece, with so many people witnessing, the second sister-in-law can only admit it even if they are unhappy, and go back to her husband to discuss it.

Until the afternoon, the guests from afar were almost there, and Zhou Yue didn't show up, which made Cui Xiuli and the others anxious, because the reason why they dressed themselves so carefully was mainly to come to see Zhou Yue, and the young masters and sons of other families had to be ranked behind.

"Xiao Huan, are there any important guests who haven't come!" Cui Xiuli blocked Mai Xiaohuan's way and asked, maybe Yue Gongzi was hidden by her!

In addition to Zhou Yue, the guests have almost arrived, and even Zhao Ge Lao has come, I heard that the corn is planted in the new Zhuangzi, Zhao Ge Lao has already said that he will go to Maixi Villa with Mai Xiaohuan to have a look.

There were more than a dozen tables at dinner, which was also the reason why the Mai family did not go back to Shaxi Village for the wedding banquet, one was too far away from the bride's house; Second, there is no decent place to entertain such guests from afar. However, McWan decided to go back and set up a few tables on a certain day.

"Xiao Huan, let me ask you!" Cui Xiuli asked again, if she hadn't wanted to find out the whereabouts of Dianyue Gongzi, she wouldn't have whispered to this cousin!

After coming back to her senses, Mai Xiaohuan only said "I don't know", turned around and left, the second sister has started to have nausea in the past two days, and she wants to make her a fruit pudding to eat, and her nephews and nephews should also like it.

Back in his small kitchen, Mai Xiaohuan found eggs and beat them to leave the egg whites, added sugar and milk and stirred for a long time until they were fully integrated. Cut the pears, peaches, and apples prepared in advance into small cubes, and put a bowl of brightly colored fruit pudding in front of Mai Xiaofang before dinner.

The novel food attracted Tang Yujun's attention, the dim sum shop has not launched new food for a while, and seeing that summer is coming, if this can be made and tastes good, it should be able to make money.

"Daughter-in-law, let me taste it."

Not only did Mai Xiaofang roll his eyes at him, but even the children who drooled next to him and were embarrassed to speak looked at their uncle (uncle) with disdain, it was a shame to have such an elder.

"I said where do you want to go, I just want to taste how it tastes, and if it's good, I can put it out in the dim sum shop.

His idea was good: "I have another way you want it." "Crushed ice, herbal tea, and even simple soda and ice cream are all very easy to make, but Mai Xiaohuan just didn't think about this before.

"Yes, of course, when you get married, the second brother-in-law will prepare ten dowries for you, no, how about twenty dowry."

"This is what you said, don't rely on the accounts, and don't deliberately provoke Zhou Yue anymore, I don't have time to help you clean up the mess."

"You can't be distressed, right?" That Zhou Yue has any good things to protect him one by one, and his mother-in-law is more enthusiastic about him than herself!

The two sisters threw brocade mats at him at the same time, saying anything, they shouldn't care about his nossy affairs, knowing that they owed their mouths and offended their sister-in-law, Tang Yujun said a lot of good things, and Mai Xiaohuan nodded and agreed to help him write a prescription.

Because Mai Xiaofang was a pregnant woman who didn't dare to let her eat too cold, the bowl of fruit pudding in front of her was room temperature. Mai Xiaohuan asked Jinqiu and Jinrong to go down to the cellar to bring the basin and gave Tang Yujun and the children a small bowl each.

The cool, sweet and sour fruit pudding was of course loved by the children, Mai Xiaofang secretly went over to dig a spoonful, and was discovered by the sharp-eyed Jinrong, so the spoon and bowl were confiscated.

"I'll go back and get this the day after tomorrow, Xiao Huan, you're a little tired tonight, can you write out the recipe?" Tang Yujun handed his daughter-in-law a piece of snack, Mai Xiaofang turned her head very backbonely, saying that she would not accept anything, and if she didn't give her what she wanted to eat, she didn't want to eat dim sum!

Even if Tang Yujun doesn't say it, Mai Xiaohuan is going to write it tonight, the second brother has become a parent, she has to go back to the villa immediately, and to be honest, she is really a little worried about handing it over to Zhou Yue, who doesn't know anything.

After accompanying the second sister and the children to talk, Mai Xiaohuan went back to her room, and Mai Xiaohuan, who was laying out the paper and grinding, inadvertently saw Jinqiu and Jinrong whispering by the door.

Jin Rong felt Mai Xiaohuan's gaze, and instead of avoiding it, he walked over: "Girl, when I went to the cellar with Jin Qiu, I heard someone talking in the backyard, and I didn't pay much attention to it, but they actually mentioned you." ”

"Oh! Do you know who it is? What did they say? ”

"It's the aunt and Cui Xiuli in Maixi Village, it seems that the aunt's family has a son, and she hopes that the son can marry you and then get the property in your name."

It is estimated that it is the little aunt again, why hasn't she given up: "Did they say what they wanted to do?" "I'm afraid it won't work even if I ask my grandmother to come forward in this matter, and my father and mother won't agree.

They said...... said that if you have a skin-to-skin relationship with the man, and it is in full view, you will definitely agree to this family business. ”

It's really despicable, I and Zhou Yue have even held hands! I didn't think about what to do with him, just because of that sick and crooked cousin, I don't look down on him, even if he has that thief heart, I'm afraid he doesn't have any guts, or he will make a play to fulfill him and Cui Xiuli?

Forget it, the second brother's happy day, more things are better than less, as soon as tomorrow passes, let my father and mother send them away. This group of people do everything for the sake of profit, Mai Xiaohuan is only worried about two things now, one is whether tomorrow's wedding banquet can go smoothly; The other is that the second sister didn't make any mistakes, she asked Jinrong to find a guard to protect the second sister tomorrow, and also told Tang Yujun to be careful, fortunately, the second sister didn't have to worry about anything because she was pregnant, as long as she stayed in the backyard honestly.

Mai Xiaohuan, who thought that she had conceived a very thorough idea, didn't expect that there would be an accident on the big day, because how could someone let her bad girl be calculated by others!
