After the family finished eating in the morning, Amber went to Sanguan Temple to take care of her grandmother. Zhu Hongyu took Zhan Ao upstairs and entered Zhan Ao's house.

She found a stool for herself, sat down and studied ink for Zhu Zhanao. The two of them have a match or not, and they have to discuss the matter of the post.

"Brother, I said you wrote, how about it?"

Zhan Ao said "um", picked up the brush, and looked at Zhu Hongyu.

First of all, the first thing is to determine who will attend the feast.

"The first to welcome Zhao Lizheng's family, and then the Zhao family's Zhao Qingyu's son's family, Jiang Zaiyu, an officer who recuperated in the Zhao family, and the gentlemen in the Zhao family's school, these people are all members of the Zhao family, and they sat in the middle hall at a few tables."

"After all, there are dozens of people."

"It's nothing, it's ranked by status. The first one is to welcome Du Yuexiao's family, the shopkeeper of Huimin Pharmacy in Yunmeng Town, Boss Zhou, who has been supplying Runye by opening a porcelain shop, and then Gu's sister-in-law's family, who we have known since childhood. These people all sit in the inner hall, and the men and women are separated. ”

"Yes." Zhan Ao wrote on the paper the people mentioned by Zhu Hongyu.

Jin Yuman, the shopkeeper of Yueji Pavilion, also sat in the inner hall and shared a table with Du Yuexiao. The little woman in Xinghua Village next door, named Ni Ping'er, came all the way to sit in the inner hall and share a table with Sister-in-law Gu. Sister Liu arranged it on the flowing water seat, and as for the former old friends, the Cui family, the Sun family, and the Man family in the village also sat outside to eat the flowing water seat. ”

After Zhan Ao finished writing, he gave Zhu Hongyu a look. Zhu Hongyu thought about it, the guests were almost finished, and it was only these people who had something to do with their family.

"Our master is going to open a table, the place is set in the inner hall, and grandma is seated."

"There are four tables in the middle hall and five tables in the inner hall. Ten tables are open for running water, right......"

Zhu Hongyu paused, thoughtful.

"Sister." Zhan Ao stopped writing, "What's wrong?" ”

"Hey, I must ask Runye to come over and do a prayer for blessings that day, he ...... You can't get rid of it. ”

Zhan Ao knew that Runye was a vegetarian, and said: "The east side room of the second courtyard is close to the middle hall, and the bedroom is so big, there is no one on weekdays. Why don't you set up a vegetarian table in this place? ”

Zhu Hongyu paused and said, "Good idea, just close to the middle hall, find him a clean place to avoid embarrassment." ”

"Sister, take a look at the list."

Zhan Ao changed the list and handed it to Zhu Hongyu, Zhu Hongyu went through it in front of him, and his younger brother's self was very stable and biased towards Ou Kai. At this age, Zhu Hongyu is really ashamed to write such a good hand.

Her Word ...... It's like a dog crawling.

"Zhan Ao, do you know any wine chefs in the village?"

Zhan Ao thought about it again and again, and finally came up with a name.

"Yes, when I went to the school, there was a student surnamed Gui, and he said that his father was traveling all over the world and making banquets for people in the city and villages."

"Oh, in our village?"

Zhan Ao nodded and said, "I have a good relationship with that classmate, why don't we go and visit today?" ”

"Well, it's settled. I believe in your classmates, brother. ”

Zhu Hongyu picked up another piece of paper and said, "Let's write down the various arrangements." ”

"Okay!" Zhan Ao picked up the paper, and it felt really good to be able to share the pressure for this family.

"At the end of the day, Runye began to do the rituals, and after doing it, please enter the side hall to drink tea, and after doing the rituals, you should fire the cannons. At the end of the day, the guests sign in. At the beginning of noon, the feast began. After eating and drinking, the guests leave. ”

On this day, Chang Pingchuan was in charge of reviewing the invitations and turning away those he didn't like. Ergou is responsible for picking up and dropping off guests inside and outside the city, Ganoderma lucidum, taro cloth vegetables. Of course, the meal needs to be served carefully. You are sent to the hospital as soon as you enter the hospital, and you are the owner of this home outside. As for receiving red envelopes and registering, I have to be. ”

"No problem, sister." Zhan Ao listened to Zhu Hongyu's words, and was naturally happy.

The two discussed some details again, and felt that there was a little shortage of manpower, and they didn't know how to solve it for a while.

It was still early to finish writing the arrangement, Zhu Hongyu and Zhan Ao went out, and the first stop was, of course, Runye.

Because Runye can set the most suitable housewarming ceremony on that day, his request is also the first.

Only then did Zhu Hongyu understand that the status of Taoist priests in ancient times was not low, but quite high. From military affairs to weddings and funerals, a group of people like Runye play an important role.

As soon as she entered the door, Amber squatted in a corner to boil medicine, and Runye disappeared completely.

"Amber, what about people?"

Amber made a "shhh

Zhu Hongyu walked to Runye Gate and knocked on the door, but Zhan Ao hurriedly stopped her.

"Sister, people are sleeping, it's so rude!"

"Others are rude, but what about me...... To be something else again. ”

As she spoke, Zhu Hongyu kicked towards the door, and Runye hurriedly opened the door.

He was wearing a white mid-coat with green silk draped behind him.

"Yo, what time is it, can't you afford it?"

Runye shook his sleepy eyes to the backyard, scooped water with a gourd and buckled it on his face.

The water drenched his front and was still dripping down.

Zhu Hongyu stood beside her with her hands crossed, watching Runye go from sleeping to forcibly waking herself up, and wanted to laugh.

"Early in the morning, bring someone to kick the door, are you going to demolish the Sanguan Temple?"

"Since it's not welcome, I'll go."

"You stop! Hurry up and say something. I haven't woken up yet. ”

Zhu Hongyu saw Runye eating deflated, so she naturally hooked her lips and smiled.

"Our family is going to hold a housewarming ceremony, Daoist, will you go and recite a scripture?"

Runye squatted on the ground, stretched out her right hand and began to pinch and calculate, this was the first time Zhu Hongyu saw Runye use "pinching her fingers", and she was so shocked that her eyes were about to fall out.

The posture of pinching his fingers is really a bit fairy-like.

"Not for a few days, the ninth day of the sixth month is a good day, set on that day."

"What, you're out of this?"

Zhu Hongyu's jaw dropped suddenly, and she really didn't know the principle.

Runye wiped the water droplets on his face, and returned to his usual dignified appearance.

"What, you want to learn?"

"Don't say it, I really want to."

"Kowtow to me and call Master, I'll teach you."

Runye looks high, I really can't wait to step on Zhu Hongyu at this time!

Zhu Hongyu hurriedly waved her hand and said, "I don't think you are teaching me, you are looking for a way to kill me." ”

"It's good to know!"

Runye pretends to be angry on the surface, but in fact he is not angry at all.

"When and how long do you want to recite the scriptures?"

Runye pondered for a while and said, "I'll just say thank you to others, but it's only an hour." To you...... At least three recitations, one is Xie Tuke, one is the Sanguanjing, and one is the soup in the evening. ”

Zhu Hongyu asked strangely, "Why?" ”

"Because your sins are so great that one prayer will not keep you safe." Runye gritted his teeth and said.

"Tell the truth."

"Because you're rich."

Zhu Hongyu laughed helplessly when she heard Runye say this. This thief learned from her.

Runye wiped the water droplets on his face with his sleeve, and then walked to the guest hall, where Zhu Hongyu naturally followed him.

Zhan Ao was already sitting in the guest hall, completely unaware of what the two of them were doing just now.

"By the ninth day of June, you have all these things ready."

As he spoke, Runye picked up a piece of paper from a stack of notes from the Bogu shelf in the guest hall and handed it to Zhu Hongyu.

"An incense case, an incense burner, a handful of incense, a few kinds of fruits, a kneeling mat, a number of five-color paper, a liter of glutinous rice, a zhang of red cloth, two coins of cinnabar, a jar of liquor, an appropriate amount of black ink, a bowl of uncooked grains, and a rooster?"

Zhu Hongyu took the note and read it out inadvertently.

"Yes, I'll bring something else myself." Runye stood under the Bogu shelf, and saw that Zhu Hongyu was studying the text very seriously, and he was also happy.

Zhu Hongyu slandered: These things are still easy to find in this era, and if they are to be put on hold in the future, it may be fake to find a copper coin.

"What, curious about this?"

"I'll see how you use it. I'm now taking my brother first. See you on the ninth day of June. ”

"Wait!" Runye called Zhu Hongyu again, "Money." ”

Zhu Hongyu's smile turned towards embarrassment and asked, "How much?" ”

"For others, it's six dollars and sixty-six yuan, and for you, it's three taels."

"Dao Chief, why don't you go and grab it?"

Runye leaned out at Zhu Hongyu, which means "give money"!

"Pay the money first, do the work later."

Zhu Hongyu was helpless, rummaged through her purse, found a silver ticket of five taels of silver, and respectfully handed it to Runye.

"I ...... Grandma eats, lives, and sees a doctor here, and has a lot of money. All together. ”

Runye accepted it unceremoniously and said, "Okay, see you on the ninth day of June." ”

Saying that, Runye sent the two out of the door, completely to see off the appearance of the customer, Zhu Hongyu was helpless, this Taoist priest ...... No, this thief is really bad at learning.

Zhan Ao and Zhu Hongyu walked in the golden light of the morning sun, warm and sunny, Zhan Ao led the way, diagonally through most of the village from the Sanguan Temple, and saw a decent adobe house.

Zhan Ao pointed to the house and said, "Sister, this is the Gui family." ”

Zhu Hongyu stepped forward and tapped on the firewood. Out of it came a woman with a big shoulder and a round waist. It seems that the child and the father-in-law are not at home.

"Hello sister-in-law Gui." Zhu Hongyu bowed slightly.

Sister-in-law Gui stared at Zhu Hongyu for a long time before she recognized her.

"Zhu's?"

"Yes."

Sister-in-law Gui felt that Zhu Hongyu was not richly dressed, but it was much better than before.

She is also a villager who knows what happened to Zhu Hongyu's family, and she is not a stranger to Zhu Hongyu.

"Nizi is looking for me?"

"Recently, our family started a house. Thinking of welcoming guests on June 9 and having a feast. ”

Sister-in-law Gui looked at Zhu Hongyu and looked up and down.

"Hold a banquet?"

Zhu Hongyu nodded, with the joy of housewarming.

"How many tables are you going to make?"

"Fifteen tables, plus one vegetarian feast."

Sister-in-law Gui smiled instantly, shaking her head while laughing.

"You Nizi, come here early in the morning, can't you make fun of me? Fifteen tables? I believe you if you say less. ”

Zhu Hongyu was helpless, it is true that their family is notoriously poor in this village.

Now that she has come here, within a month, she is one of the most rich and noble families in the village, and she doesn't believe anyone when she says it.

Moreover, a few days ago, she was still living in the Sanguan Temple.

"Sister-in-law Gui, I heard that Uncle Gui made the best flowing water mat, so I came to invite it. How much deposit is required, you can tell me. ”

"You Niko!" Sister-in-law Gui was obviously a little unhappy, and she categorically couldn't believe Zhu Hongyu's words.

Zhu Hongyu is really too lazy to go to the city and invite a chef again, the banquet is not easy to do.

So he took out a silver ingot of white flowers and stuffed it into Sister-in-law Gui's hand.

"Sister-in-law Gui, standing here and talking is so tired that you panic, why don't we go into the house?"
