It's always been my unfilial piety as a son, so this time I want to focus on it, be lively, and make the old man happy, sister! You tell me? ”
Zhao Zhizhen said: "Brother Bao! You are doing a good job, but it is my negligence as a sister. In two years, my mother will be 70 years old, and she must be lively, this time I will do it according to my brother's opinion, and I will pay half of the money! ”
Zhao Zhibao said: "It's not a problem if you don't have money, your brother is not short of money, let's do it together!" ”
Qiu Lianhua said: "I don't have any opinion, according to the set day, May 26 is the date of birth, that is, Saturday, the second day is a rest day, I suggest that the second day is more lively for half a day, continue to sing in the morning, and eat Chinese food again before it ends, how about it?" ”
Zhao Zhibao said: "I think I want it, what do you say, sister?" ”
Zhao Zhizhen said: "I agree! ”
Zhao Zhibao divided labor according to everyone's opinions: Zhao Zhizhen and his wife are responsible for notifying and inviting guests, and the Zhao family rules: no gifts. Qiu Lianhua is responsible for counting the number of people and ordering food. Zhao Chunhe and Zhao Chunyu are responsible for picking up and dropping off guests.
The Zhao family has already bought a minibus (45-seater) and a car. Huang Shuyue and Xihua were responsible for greeting visitors, and their children hired an aunt named Shi Guifen to take care of them! Even the two children in the army, Zhao Xiaxiong and Zhao Xiatao, were brought over for unified management, and they lived in 404 and 408 of the new building.
Zhao Zhibao personally invited a band, saying that he was going to work all afternoon and night, and on the morning of the second day, it was exactly a whole day, and he talked about the price: 8 people, a total of 1,500 yuan.

Zhao Zhibao and his wife are very happy, their baby daughter is beautiful again! Zhao Dandan is talented, good-looking, very cute, Zhao Zhibao joked: "It's good that my daughter came back alone, which means that she hasn't been snatched away yet!" ”
Zhao Dandan said: "Dad! Do you want me to be snatched away? Or can't you bear me? ”

Zhao Zhibao received a message that Qian Long's family had arrived, and Zhao Chunhe went to pick up Qian Long's family. Another message came saying that Liu Hei, Qian Feng, and Hong Xuefei had arrived. So, Zhao Zhibao arranged for Zhao Chunyu to drive a minibus.

In the end, Qian Long said: "Foreign guests are casual, I still play music here for 3 minutes, and those who want to worship can also worship, feel free to worship!" ”
How can the guests not come forward to worship and bow, every time they come, people never charge a penny, the Zhao family is really generous, good food, good drink, good living, fun, today is to give people a birthday, how can there be no reason not to worship? So kneeling on the ground in the hall, Zhao Zhibao hurriedly stepped forward to help everyone up and said, "You are so polite, I thank you on behalf of my father!" Thank you! It took a few minutes before it ended.
In the end, Qian Long announced: "The birthday greeting is over!" Please go to the "Xiangyang Restaurant" to eat, prepare the first course at 4:18, and the seats are freely combined, and the table is full of 8 people. 7:18 start the church meeting, the program is exciting, don't miss it! ”
This time, a total of 12 tables were opened, one more table than the last time Zhao Zhibao was born. And there is also a lack of space, so the child does not occupy a place, and is carried by the mother. The wine and food have also improved one step, but the wine is on Moutai, and there are two more types of dishes than before, and the band knows best, because they play a piece of music on the last dish, and it feels like there are more than before, and in essence, there are more than you used to.
From 4:18 to 6 o'clock, almost two hours, the band took a break for half an hour, and then began to put on makeup, because in addition to singing, there was also a program of performances.
At 7:18, the gong was opened, and the performances included "Eighteen Phases", "Little Cattle" and "Garden Club" There were singing segments between each program, such as "Double Farewell Kiln", etc., the program was small, but the singing was beautiful, as the saying goes: the voice croaked, and it didn't end until 9:30.
Qian Long said: "The instruments of the band can be placed here, and there will be a car to take you back at night." Come here tomorrow morning at 7:30 for breakfast. The performance will continue at 8:18 a.m., and the lunch will start at 11:18 p.m., I haven't heard it clearly, I can convey it to each other, and this is the end of tonight! ”
According to the plan, on the second day, I played for another two or three hours in the morning before eating, and I ate until 2 o'clock in the afternoon. The rest is for the guests to go back, Zhao Dandan was sent to the train station by Zhao Chunhe in a car, and Zhao Honghong was sent to the airport by plane.
