A group of people came out of the gate to the car, and got into the car one after another, Lin Lishan drove the car, took the ladies into a car, and then followed the front one to the fat master.

In the car, Zhang's mother sat in the passenger seat with the child in her arms, listening to their chat, her thoughts were chaotic, she thought of the pile of gifts like a hill in the living room, and then remembered the bunch of gifts brought by the Cheng family at noon today, and secretly wondered what to prepare in return. I don't know what she ordered before leaving, and how the boss and his wife prepared.

Zhou Xiaozheng was in the last car, Zhang Guoqing was driving the car, Zhao Chuanguang and Cheng Sijin were sitting next to him, the three of them chatted, and when they got out of the intersection, Zhou Xiaozheng instructed Zhang Guoqing to pass by Zhao's house and call Zhao Dashan.

The car stopped at the door of Zhao's house, Zhang Guoqing ran into the yard and saw Zhao Dashan in the living room, "Uncle, where is Aunt Cheng?" ”

"Haven't gotten off work yet, do you have something to do with her? I'll be back later. ”

Zhang Guoqing picked up his coat and pulled him out, "My dad and Uncle Guang are waiting for you in the car outside." Let's not wait for Aunt Cheng, let's go to dinner first. ”

Zhao Dashan hurriedly closed the gate of the yard, and the two got into the car.

After saying hello, Zhao Dashan asked Zhao Chuanguang curiously, "Don't you have to go back in the morning?" When will you come to the county seat again? Why don't you call me? ”

Zhao Chuanguang said proudly: "As soon as I heard you say that Brother Zheng was going to go to the ancestral hall with Brother Cheng today, I guessed that they would return to Beijing soon." If Brother Zheng comes back and doesn't see her, believe it or not, my daughter-in-law will keep chattering. What do you think? Brothers are smart, right? ”

Zhao Dashan looked at him with disdain, "You're really afraid of your daughter-in-law." ”

"I'm a good man, I'm afraid that my daughter-in-law is a good man. I don't believe you're not afraid of red peppers. Hey, the red peppers didn't come? ”

"At work, the old ladies just have a lot of things, and they don't get off work on time."

Zhang Guoqing avoided the potholes on the road and dug up, and quickly drove to the eastern suburbs of the county, the child went out for the first time, he was really not at ease, and Zhou Jiao didn't eat a bite at home, he also had to let the fat master take care of the first confinement meal, and the mood became more and more urgent.

After taking a shortcut, he finally caught up with the large army and stopped at the gate of the courtyard, Zhang Guoqing secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, the location of the fat master's yard was appropriate, otherwise, just looking at the six cars would have caused the villagers to watch.

When the fat master heard that the apprentice said that a group of cars came at the door, he was shocked in his heart, and rushed to the gate in person, and when he arrived at the door, he saw Zhang Guoqing inside, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. He came here after dark, and his heart was pounding in the middle of the day.

"Little Wu, quickly bring your parents in to rest. You come with me to the big room, and there will be two big tables in it. There is also a fire kang for the little doll to lie down. ”

After speaking, the fat master led everyone to the largest room in the east wing, this room is indeed very large, there are two tables in it, and the kang is also cleaned up.

Zhang Guoqing nodded with satisfaction and asked everyone, "Auntie, are there any taboos on your food?" I'll ask the fat chef to give you some dishes that you can serve today, okay? ”

Everyone shook their heads, looking at Cheng Lao and them, just to see what the old man and they needed.

Cheng Lao smiled and pointed at Lin Lao beside him, "Lao Lin, come on, it doesn't matter what I eat, there are no taboos." Do you see what is needed? ”

Old Man Lin nodded towards the fat master, "The dishes are not particular, you take care of the female dependents." We men remember to have good wine. Just look at it. By the way, remember to make a confinement meal first. ”

Zhang Guoqing carried a bamboo basket and walked out with the fat master, "Fat master, you can first serve some nourishing soup and rice to my daughter-in-law." You can just watch the seafood in this bamboo basket and make it. I also have to bother you to prepare a few more dishes suitable for the elderly. Cold dishes and wine are served to the chef first. ”

"You see, I'm definitely going to show my housekeeping skills today. Xiao Wu, I have simmered the bear's paw hen today, do you want it? The price is relatively high. ”

"If you just have another Buddha jumping over the wall today, I want it. The old rules, wait for me to pay. After Zhang Guoqing finished speaking, he handed him the basket and walked into the room.

I heard Zhao Dashan talking about the family history of the fat master from afar.

After entering the room, Zhang Guoqing went over to the kang and found that his son was lying on the kang and was asleep, not affected by the environment at all, and he was really at ease with what he encountered. At the end of the kang sat his mother and them, and they all chatted happily.

Zhou Jiao winked at him and smiled slightly. Zhang Guoqing smiled, this will be able to see, and what is even more hilarious is the one in front of him, I didn't see that she was in good spirits and full of energy.

Zhang Guoqing said softly: "When there will be bear's paws, you have a mouthful." Is there anything else you'd like to eat? ”

Zhou Jiao looked around carefully and said in a low voice, "If only there was flying dragon soup." ”

"There should be one today, I just saw a processed wyvern in the ingredients." I secretly wondered in my heart that it was rare for Jiaojiao to like it, and I would pack it all up and take it away later.

After a while, the two little masters served wine and cold dishes one after another, and after Zhou Xiaozheng beckoned everyone to sit down, he beckoned Zhang Guoqing to come over.

"Let's drink with confidence tonight, and when we get drunk, there are a few people at the table who don't like to drink to send us back. Ah Guang will stay in a guest house with the old men at night, and we will go to the provincial capital together tomorrow afternoon. Little five, give them to your aunt and grandfather. ”

Zhang Guoqing opened the wine jar, starting from Cheng Lao, and the two tables of men were all filled with sorghum and burned.

Lin Lishan saw that he was still busy pouring fruit wine, and hurriedly said, "Our female mother will take care of it." You go to the table, stare at the two old men, don't overdo it. ”

Zhang Guoqing nodded and returned to his position.

Zhao Chuanguang saw that he was back, stood up and raised his wine glass and said loudly: "Brother Zheng, this first cup we wish you to get rid of the sea of suffering, reunite with relatives, and recognize your ancestors and return to your ancestors." ”

His words made everyone laugh, and everyone stood up to toast.

After drinking the first cup, everyone sat down, Zhao Chuanguang saw that Zhang Guoqing had already started pouring wine, and hurriedly boasted: "It's still my son-in-law, you can see how sensible you are." Xiao Wu, you sit, let's all pour it ourselves. ”

Holding the second glass of wine, Zhao Chuanguang stood up, "What about this second glass of wine, I have to say a few words first, I, I'm happy, I'm so happy tonight, I finally saw our family Jiaojiao." Daughter-in-law, let's respect my brother and sister-in-law for a cup, thank them for giving birth to a daughter for us. ”

Zhou Xiaozheng stood up and picked up his wine glass, "There is something wrong with what you say, why did you call the two of us to give birth to a daughter for you?" You have to remember, I'm dear, you're doing it. Good brother, for your sack of paper money every year, let's do it. ”

Jin Huimin laughed when she heard this, and hurriedly explained to everyone. After speaking, he stood up and raised his wine glass to touch Lin Lishan's glass, and said loudly: "Brother Zheng, for your safe return, my sister will do it first as a respect." ”

Zhao Dashan laughed, "Well said, let's all drink this wine for Brother Zheng's safe return." ”

Zhou Xiaozheng waited for the big guy to finish drinking, poured the wine, and raised the glass in his hand, "This third cup, I salute everyone, don't say words of thanks, it's all in the wine." ”

After three glasses of wine, the little master then served hot dishes, and Zhou Xiao was busy asking everyone to fill their stomachs first.

Zhang Guoqing's ears were tipped, and he vaguely heard Zuo Lin's voice outside, listened carefully, and the corner of his eye touched the two old men in the seat, and suddenly came to his senses, pulled Zhou Xiaozheng, pointed outside, and said silently, "Zuo Lin"

Zhou Xiaozheng came to his senses, nodded, and watched him get up and leave to open the door. Sure enough, I saw Zuo Lin carrying a jar of wine and Li Aiguo outside, just about to push the door in.

Zhang Guoqing hurriedly took the hands of the two of them and came in, "Uncle Li, Uncle Zuo, fortunately you are here." My dad regrets that you can't get together with you at work today. Come in, Uncle Dashan didn't go to Chengshan on leave today, and he has been pulled over by me. It's going to be fine, with you on board, I'm really going to get drunk at night. ”

A smile flashed in Zhou Xiaozheng's eyes, and he stood up and ordered the waiter next to him to add two chairs. pulled the two of them and pressed them in the position of himself and Zhang Guoqing.

"Sit down. Zuolin: Where did you get this wine? ”

Zuo Lin nodded and pointed at Zhang Guoqing.

Zhao Dashan shouted happily: "50-year-old cellar, you can be regarded as the right one." Brother Cheng, Ah Guang, this is Zuo Linzang's moonshine, and we will drink it all for him later. ”

Li Aiguo complained to Cheng Lao and Lin Lao: "Two old men, why didn't you say a word to us when you came last night?" Today, when we heard the waiter's report, we were in a hurry to find you, and finally asked you to go to the village, and rushed to Xiaowu's house, and they said that you had returned to the county seat. When we arrived at the county seat, we didn't come back to see the guest house, or found Zuo Lin to know where Xiao Wu's new yard was, but as soon as it passed, the gate was closed, fortunately, I heard that a few of your cars drove to the eastern suburbs of the county, and we could find you. ”

Cheng Lao comforted him with a smile, "It's really hard." This time we are here to do personal business, so there is no need to trouble you. You're already busy at work, so there's no need to cause trouble in the place. Pour yourself full of wine, let's continue drinking. ”

After adding two chairs and sitting down, the fat master personally came up with the bear's paw.

"This is the old hen simmered in bear's paws, stewed for two days in a row, and the old man eats and sees."

Cheng Lao opened the lid, greeted with a strong fragrance, scooped a small bowl with a spoon, added a piece of meat with chopsticks and put it in his mouth, the fat place melted in the mouth, the rest of the tendons and toughness, and it was broken with a light bite, and the mouth was fragrant after swallowing, and the aftertaste was endless. No wonder even Mencius said, "Fish, I want it, and bear paws do what I want; You can't have both, and you can't have both, and you can give up the fish and take the bear's paw. ”

Everyone at the table scooped a small bowl and tasted it with relish.

Zhao Chuanguang drank the soup and gave a thumbs up to the fat master. This craft is really good, salty and light, oily but not greasy. It's a pity to think that my aunt made bear paws like pig's trotters when I went home.

Zhou Xiaozheng looked at it for a while, the two jars were all eaten, and then he saw his daughter squinting and drinking the soup, just like a kitten, his heart blossomed, and he hurriedly asked the fat master, "Is there anything else?" Two more altars. ”

The fat master couldn't cry or laugh, and quickly shook his head. Just this one forepaw, he still found it with great difficulty, this thing is not easy to find.

Waiting for the fat chef to leave, Jin Huimin whispered: "I always thought that the bear's paw was the taste of pig's trotters, but it seems that the key to this lies in the chef's skills." ”

Mrs. Cheng was provoked by her words, "He is simmering with the old hen and adding accessories." If it's braised bear's paws, it's really like pig's trotters. The best thing to eat is the Buddha jumping over the wall, but unfortunately I can't see it now. ”

Zhou Jiao is now so mutilated by Wowotou that as long as it is meat, it is delicious. As for the Buddha jumping over the wall, she seems to have it in her space. I remember that time Zhang Guoqing took her to a membership-based private restaurant, and the two of them went to admire it, ordered a table of dishes, and finally packed the big jar of Buddha jumping over the wall. What did they think at the time, half a table of vegetarian dishes. Now, if anyone spends a lot of money to invite her to eat half a table of vegetarian dishes, she will be in a hurry. It's hard to look back on the past.

Zhao Chuanguang and the others toasted Zuo Lin, and hurriedly said, "Zuo Lin, pour the good wine you brought back first." What can make my son-in-law worry about it must be good wine. ”

Zuo Lin nodded with a smile and pointed at Zhang Guoqing, "Little Wu, help Uncle Zuo pour it for everyone, so that everyone can taste it." Don't be reluctant, your aunt has already left five catties for you. ”

After listening to this, Zhang Guoqing happily responded. Picked up the twenty catties of wine jar and began to pour wine, this jar really wanted him to pour, fortunately he had a lot of strength, and he was not tired around the two tables.

When he poured two tables of wine glasses, the room suddenly burst of wine aroma, worthy of aging, the smell is fragrant, drink the mouth, full of fragrance, the taste is sweet and mellow, rare and valuable is the tail clean, the aftertaste is not bitter. The drink was praised by everyone, and when the aged wine was brought and drunk, everyone was already red and emotional.

Zhao Chuanguang rolled up his sleeves, slapped the table and shouted, "Except for the two old men, the men began to clear the customs." Brothers, don't get drunk tonight. ”

After the words fell, everyone got up and saluted the two old men, and shouted that Zhao Chuanguang would have three cups first.

Zhang Guoqing had already moved a few jars of wine and put them on the table for them to pour by themselves, took over the children by himself, and asked Zhang's mother to drink and eat food first. When the child has drunk the milk powder, the room is staggered, and the cups are changed.

After three rounds of drinking, Zhou Xiaozheng left Zhang Guoqing to take care of everyone, and took Zhou Jiao and the child back to the small courtyard first.
