Duoduo made a fried fat sausage with green peppers, tofu fish head, and the fish body was used for the banquet at noon.

She originally wanted to make sauerkraut fish head, the taste of this dish is better than tofu fish head, but Lin Yongfang said that every household in the village eats sauerkraut every time in winter, and if the sauerkraut is treated, I am afraid it will be disrespectful, so Duoduo changed to roast fish head with tofu, and then made a cold and sour and hot kelp shred, fried pork belly with yuba, braised thousands of knots, braised large pieces of pork belly, braised pork head...... There were more than a dozen dishes made, and the seven craftsmen sat around the table, eating and drinking to their heart's content, and said thank you to the host with a red face before leaving, and it was already half past ten in the morning, and the luncheon began at twelve o'clock at noon, but there was still a lot of preparation to be done.

Fortunately, when entertaining the craftsmen, Duoduo cooked a pot of shredded meat and shallots to eat for the whole family, plus the eggs that were marinated before and ate them separately as a family, otherwise how could they have the time to eat again when they were busy, and they would not be hungry until the end of the luncheon?

The two brothers Tao Aimin and Tao Aijia went to the village to borrow tables, chairs and dishes from the villagers, and no one in the village could have so many dishes, tables and chairs, so when the guests were feasted, they all borrowed each other, and Na Baichuan also went to help.

Tao Aiguo killed sheep in the old house, and prepared to make a carrot stew of mutton at today's banquet.

The price of mutton is high, and the average rural person cannot afford to eat it, so this carrot stew is an excellent dish when it is served.

Rural people eat a banquet in other people's homes, will comment on the quality of the banquet, a word can say more than half a month, with this carrot stewed mutton, Tao Aiguo thought, after today's banquet, I am afraid that those guests who have eaten the banquet in his house will relish his carrot stewed mutton, thinking of this, he can't help but smile slightly.

If it was changed before, Tao Aiguo wanted to take out a sheep to entertain guests, Liu Cuihua would definitely be reluctant, but two days ago Tao Aiguo said that he wanted to kill a sheep, she immediately agreed, her mother-in-law is a good person, her aunt is bold, Uncle Tao Aijia is not silent, she is silent, and her mother-in-law treats her well, the most important thing is that now that the conditions are good, of course she will not be as careful as before.

Lin Yongfang was calculating the eighteen dishes to be prepared at each table, which eighteen dishes should be cooked?

Braised large pieces of fatty meat are indispensable, stir-fried pork belly with garlic, braised fish pieces, stir-fried pork liver, white radish stew, carrot stewed mutton, fried lotus root sandwich......

Duoduo listened to the side, all of which were must-do dishes at rural banquets, and there was no creativity at all, so he suggested: "Let's make two new varieties of dishes, one meat balls and one glutinous rice balls." ”

Rural people generally don't make meat balls and glutinous rice balls, which is too labor-intensive, so Lin Yongfang is not very good at these two dishes, so Duoduo is responsible for making these two dishes.

These two dishes are actually not difficult to make, but they are just time-consuming.

At that time, there was no meat grinder, and the pork had to be chopped into minced meat first, and this work was handed over to Chen Meilin, who had a big waist and a round waist, but there was a lot of meat filling needed, and she couldn't be busy alone, so she called Tao Aimin, who was moving tables and chairs to the house, and chopped pork with her.

After chopping for nearly an hour, Chen Meiling and her husband chopped all the pork designated by Duoduo into meat filling.

Rural people like to eat fatty meat, so the fatty pork belly specially selected by Duoduo is called the second brother and sister-in-law to chop into meat filling.

Then she beat some eggs, and the minced fish and meat were mixed and put in a large basin, and sprinkled with salt, monosodium glutamate, five-spice powder, pepper and other seasonings, plus chopped shallots and starch for Na Baichuan to help stir well, this is a hard work, she can't do it.

Lin Yongfang was a little reluctant, and said with a few words: "You kid, you don't know anything at all, how can you ask Baichuan to do this and that, he is a guest." ”

Duoduo rolled her eyes and said disapprovingly: "The married daughter is also a guest, am I still busy?" ”

Lin Yongfang slapped Duoduo's ass with a smile: "You kid, you are always so sharp-toothed." ”

Na Baichuan smiled and said, "Mom, don't treat me as a guest, I'm half of my mother's son." ”

Lin Yongfang smiled and went to something else.

Lin Yongfang's family is preparing for the banquet guests, and Li Chunhua's family is also busy preparing for the wedding of Tao Chengan and Qin Kejiao.

This wedding is a second marriage for Tao Chengan, generally speaking, the second marriage is not so important in both rural and urban areas, especially in rural areas, not only is it not valued, but also try to be low-key, because rural people are conservative and think that divorced people are who? Therefore, people who are not very willing to marry for the second time, of course, those who are widowed and remarry are another matter.

Tao Chengan abandoned his bad wife and married another, who in the village did not criticize him? Although these disdainful words were not spoken in front of Li Chunhua's family, Li Chunhua and the others also heard some rumors, so Li Chunhua felt that he had to hold this wedding for Tao Chengan for three reasons.

First, disgusting people from the same village, didn't you condemn my son behind his back for abandoning his bad wife and marrying another, because my son found a better one! Let your envy and jealousy go!

Second, it is also for Lin Yongfang to see, the better Lin Yongfang and her children are now, the more congested Li Chunhua becomes, but they have nothing to do with her now, even if she wants to go to their house to sprinkle, but Lin Yongfang and her children have made a lot of money, but they have never given her a point, which makes Li Chunhua like a fish in her throat, where can she swallow this breath, of course, she wants to hold a big wedding between Tao Chengan and Qin Kejiao, which is intended to humiliate Lin Yongfang, even if Tao Chengan marries a second-married woman, she also attaches great importance to it.

But the most important reason is the third reason, Li Chunhua hopes to win over Qin Kejiao through this wedding and let her hand over a part of her salary every month, so that she can show off her power in front of the villagers and Lin Yongfang, and beat their faces loudly, of course, the ultimate goal is to bulge her purse.

Although Li Chunhua really wants to hold this wedding, her family has that condition, and she can't do it if she wants to, so she can only do her best.

But the two daughters-in-law Yu Caifeng and Zhu Hongxiu were very unhappy in their hearts, when they married into the Tao family, how could it be so grand, they didn't even sit on the sedan chair, they all came over the mountains and mountains by themselves, but in order to get more benefits from Tao Cheng'an in the future, they had to suppress the unhappiness in their hearts and help Li Chunhua manage the wedding.

Li Chunhua doesn't have much money in his hands, and all the money Yu Caifeng got from Tao Cheng'an was used to build a house, but even if she had, she wouldn't take it out for Tao Cheng'an's wedding, not to mention Zhu Hongxiu, she would eat a money if her family had money, and she couldn't save money at all, so the things that were necessary for the wedding would not be bought if she could do it herself.
