Chapter Twenty-Six: The Second Uncle's Family Banquet (2)
Li Lanxi was also stuffed with a bowl and chopsticks in her hand by Mrs. Yao, just take it, why is her bowl one size bigger than theirs! Can you not make yourself so special!
When the group came to Li Dahai's house, they met many people in the village on the way, who were also holding a big bowl and holding a basin! ran to Li Dahai's house in a hurry, but he was afraid that he would go slowly.
Li Lanxi followed her family all the way and found that this village was really poor, and Mrs. Yao said that their family's conditions were okay, and she was not talking big, she did see that many houses were straw sheds.
When I arrived at Li Dahai's house, Li Dahai's daughter-in-law Zhang greeted her, "Third brother and sister, you are here, I am also going to let Nanwazi go over and call you to go."
The courtyard is quite large, and there are more than a dozen tables of all sizes, and the tables are basically full of people, and those who are not allowed to sit are basically specially stayed.
There are also those who have not sat in the position, and they are not in a hurry, sitting on the side and eating melon seeds, chatting, waiting for the next round, this kind of banquet is eaten round by round, and after eating, it is cleaned up, and the next table continues to be placed.
When you meet that person, you can't finish eating for five or six rounds, like those rich people, the banquet is all flowing water seats, no matter when you go, you can eat, from morning to night.
Zhang's age looks like his face is bigger than that of Mrs. Yao, but her waist is relatively straight, her spirit is very good, and she is beaming, at first glance, she is even smaller than Mrs. Yao, which may be the gap between rich people.
Mrs. Yao also smiled and handed over the basket, "Isn't this coming, the family is busy going to the field, and they have been busy recently, so I didn't come to help you, don't take it to heart."
Zhang took the basket and pretended to have a straight face and said, "Look at what you said, who is not busy now, how can I not know, I can still remember this little thing?" Don't stand and talk, come, sit here, I've reserved a place for you, third brother, you go into the house quickly, the sea has been talking about you for a long time."
Old man Li nodded with a cigarette stick, and took his three sons into the upper house.
The brothers don't have much time together throughout the year, and they occasionally bump into each other, and they can also say a few polite greetings by the way.
Mrs. Yao is a gossip person, and as soon as she sat on the stool, she whispered to Zhang, "I remember that the second brother's birthday is not a few days away, why did you live in advance?"
Zhang handed the basket to the eldest daughter Li Xiaoyu on the side, and motioned her to take it in, what she was going to say next was also not convenient for her daughter's family to listen to, and when Li Xiaoyu entered the house shyly, Zhang sat down and talked quietly with Mrs. Yao.
Zhang's god said mysteriously, "Yes, there are still a few days, isn't this a happy event, just do it together."
"What's the happy thing?"
Zhang couldn't hide his smile, and whispered, "Xiaoyu was taken by the people in the town, and she came to marry, she was a rich family, and the bride price was given fifty taels."
Li Lanxi also listened with her ears pricked up, she liked this kind of gossip.
Wang also eavesdropped from time to time, she only cared about when the food would be served, and her eyes kept looking at other people's kitchens.
A few male children did not listen to the call, and they had already played with the friends in the village, and the anxious Wang and Yao looked around, afraid that the banquet would be held in a while, and a few children did not eat.
Since Li Xiaohua has changed her opinion of Li Lanxi, she likes to follow Li Lanxi, just like now, she is sitting directly on the edge of Li Lanxi, before that, she must have been a little far away from her, Li Xiaoduo is next to Li Xiaohua, and they are all sitting more well-behaved.
Mrs. Yao exclaimed, "So many! Which family is it? ”。
"Do you know the Lin family in the town? It was the one who opened several shops, and we used to go to the food shop to buy food, which was their industry."
Mrs. Yao smacked her tongue, no wonder she has money, she has opened several shops, she must be rich, she couldn't help but show envy and said, "Sister-in-law is lucky."
Zhang's heart is beautiful when she listens, isn't it just good luck, she and her daughter are shopping on the street, and they happened to meet Lin Zongbao, the second son of the Lin family, riding a horse and passing by, and people directly took a fancy to Li Xiaoyu, and within a few days, they called the matchmaker to make a marriage, not counting those cloth snacks and hair accessories, just set the marriage gift, and gave fifty taels, and they also said that when they get married, they will give another fifty taels, this is really a rich family, these days the family is full of joy, she has always wanted to find a rich family for her daughter, and now she really got her wish, But she couldn't sleep at night when she was excited.
Li Lanxi felt a little strange, this Li Xiaoyu looked very delicate, compared with the peasant girls around her, although she looked a little better, but it was not outstanding, the young master of the rich family, I haven't seen any women, I'm afraid that the maids in the family are better looking than Li Xiaoyu, how can you fall in love with her?
But of course she wouldn't ask these words, lest she scold.
"Why don't you talk about it, when she grows up, her temperament has become more well-behaved" Zhang looked at Li Lanxi sitting obediently on the side, a little curious, this girl is fat, I haven't seen her for a while, and she has lost so much weight, but it's just that, one point, in her opinion, this is still a big fat man, at best, it used to be an apple, and now it is a pear, and the gap is not big.
"But isn't it, this child, his temperament is much better now, and they all say that the girl will be sensible when she grows up, that's true" Yao Pozi couldn't help but smile when she saw Zhang's mention of Li Lanxi.
Zhang's face nodded to cater to him, but he puffed in his heart, laughing at Mrs. Yao's incomprehension, a fat girl who is ugly to death, it is a problem whether she marries or not in the future, and she is a treasure in the family, it is really stupid to die.
Seeing that there was someone in the house named Zhang, Zhang said to Mrs. Yao and hurried to help.
Li Lanxi saw a familiar sound and shadow, Li Nan! I heard someone call him that.
That guy fell down on the mountain and didn't help himself, it turned out to be the son of the second uncle's family! is still a relative, and he doesn't help him, Li Lanxi was suddenly very dissatisfied with him, but that's all, she didn't bother to pay attention to him.
After a while, I saw the sound of a gong, and the people at the table began to get nervous.
As soon as the people waiting for the dishes were served, countless pairs of chopsticks began to grab them, Li Lanxi's table was lucky, because their family filled a table, anyway, they were all their own family, although they all ate large clips, but they were not as crazy as the other tables, Li Lanxi looked at it a few times, and found that many tables were on the dishes, and the plates were empty, and they were all staring at each other, especially those with meat, picking, and no one eating vegetables, all kept their stomachs to eat meat.
Fortunately, fortunately, I don't have to grab a table here in my house, it's all my own family, Mrs. Yao feasted for a while, while eating, and didn't forget to put meat in Li Lanxi's bowl, a plate of greasy elbows, is the most popular, a few people divided it in a few clicks, Li Lanxi didn't want to eat it very much, just put it on the side of the bowl, she wanted to clip it to her mother, but her bowl was also full, she could only put it first, and saw Li Xiaohua and Li Xiaoduo on the side were eating hard, and Li Lanxi continued to eat with her head down.
Mrs. Yao doesn't care, you can eat if you want, eat as much as you like, anyway, eat someone else's, and give a gift, how to do it if you don't eat it back, and urge everyone to eat quickly.
Wang is the one who eats the most, at this time she doesn't care about a few children, it seems that she sees the children sitting at the same table with others, a few stupid, other tables can grab a few dishes, she is really angry, but she has no time to think about that, chopsticks under the wind, gulping down meat.
Yao's usually eats and eats, which is relatively gentle, it should be said that eating is relatively slow, but this will also be a little more relaxed, and the speed can catch up with Mrs. Yao.
The family ate hard, and in addition to the green vegetables, the dishes on the table were really clean!
It's so delicious! Li Xiaohua and Li Xiaoduo both had round stomachs, and Mrs. Yao also burped, and they were all full!
After eating, the family didn't continue to stay, and stood aside with dishes and chopsticks, others had to clean up the table, and the people behind were still waiting to continue eating.
