Chapter Ninety-Eight: Say Okay First, Don't Take the Bag

The people who came were Yang Jinlian and her husband Li Shengli.

A neighbor recognized the two.

"Isn't this Yinlian's sister Jin Lian, she also came."

"After all, it's close, I'm sure I've heard about it, and it's normal to come over."

"Look at the gifts he took, and there was pig feed."

"Hahaha~"

"It's been a long time, it's the first time I've seen a relative take pig feed."

"It's been a long day to see, and it's not in vain."

"I've eaten a feast for so many years, and it's the first time I've seen something like this."

"When a pig is born, a big feast is held, and relatives come to get pig feed, and it is gone."

"No, I'm going to take a picture of this and post it online."

"Yes, yes, you forgot if you didn't say it, it's a very attractive thing."

"If this is uploaded to Douyin, it will definitely attract a lot of people to watch it."

Everyone took out their mobile phones and began to shoot, and people who were familiar with Li Shengli even walked over to take a close-up shot of the pig feed.

Zheng Qinglin and Yang Yinlian, who were greeting the guests, also knew the news, put down the things in their hands and walked out.

"Sister, why are you here?"

Yang Yinlian didn't tell her sister about this, so she was surprised that she came over.

"Come on, take something."

Taking the two boxes of gifts in her hand, Yang Yinlian took her sister to the hall.

On the side, Zheng Qinglin took over the pig feed from Li Shengli's hands.

Eighty pounds of pig feed is quite heavy, and he can't lift it alone.

Pig feed is carried to the utility room, where it is filled with pig feed.

"Brother Shengli, I remember if you didn't have something to do today? Done?"

Li Shengli took the cigarette, lit it and took a puff and said, "I was busy yesterday, it's not that her sister knows that you are going to hold a big banquet for the pigs today, so the two of us came over."

After listening to Li Shengli's words, Zheng Qinglin felt that his teeth hurt.

If he guessed correctly, the two of them wanted to eat the big banquet made by Zheng Fei.

Look at those eyes, since you entered the courtyard, your eyes have always looked at the kitchen, and you almost have written the intention of this time on your face.

"By the way, you don't have to worry about me, you're busy with yours."

Because of the proximity, Li Shengli often came to his house, so he knew a lot of people.

He knew several neighbors around, and he glanced at them just now and recognized many people.

Zheng Qinglin was indeed busy, and when he heard him say this, he said a word to him and went to get busy.

"Qinglin, come over here."

Zheng Qinglin was about to go to the hall to get something, when he was suddenly stopped by Zheng Hedong.

Zheng Hedong is bookkeeper today, and now let him go over to something.

"What's wrong, Brother Dong."

Zheng Hedong took out a stack of hundred-yuan bills and put them on the table.

I received a lot of money for this gift, and you go to that rubber band and tie it up.

Ooh!

Seeing that he had received so much gift money, Zheng Qinglin was overjoyed.

I didn't expect the people in the village to be so powerful, and they actually took two hundred yuan with one person.

Zheng Qinglin calculated the account and found that he shouldn't be able to take too much of the cost of the big seat.

"Sister, why don't you tell me about your big banquet, I still heard from others before I knew that you were going to hold a big banquet, and if others didn't say it, I wouldn't know." ….

In the hall, the two sisters Yang Jinlian were sitting on the sofa talking.

On the side, it was Zheng Qinglin's son Zheng Dongyang.

Zheng Dongyang is only five years old this year, which is the age when he is curious about everything, although there are two people talking next to him, but his eyes are still watching the TV tightly.

"Senior brother, the master was captured by a monster."

Glancing at her son, Yang Yinlian said, "Hey, isn't it because pigs are born, there are many piglets, me

They just wanted to celebrate, and they only told the people in the village, and their relatives didn't tell them anything."

"You two too, why do you think that a pig is giving birth to a big feast, I thought it was nonsense when I first heard others say this."

Yang Yinlian heard her sister's words and laughed twice.

"In addition to this reason, there is also a reason that my mother-in-law wants to eat the dishes made by Xiao Fei, Qinglin discussed it with me a few days ago, and decided to find something to call Xiao Fei to make a few tables."

Hearing her sister say this, Yang Jinlian realized that the main reason was her mother-in-law.

…………

Seeing more and more people, Zheng Qinglin couldn't sit still.

That's not right, why are so many people here?

He said it all, only thirty tables of dishes were prepared, except for the personal invitation of those close to him, he didn't say anything about ordinary relationships.

Originally, he thought that thirty tables were enough, but now that he sees that thirty tables are far from enough.

No, he wants an uncle in charge to say something.

Zheng Qinglin looked around and found Uncle Jianguo, who was in charge of affairs, in the crowd playing cards.

When he finished playing the cards, Zheng Qinglin hurriedly pulled him out.

"What's wrong, what's wrong?"

When Zheng Jianguo saw Zheng Qinglin's solemn face, he thought something had happened.

The two of them found a place with few people, and whispered to him, "Uncle, you know, I have prepared thirty tables, but if you look at the people here, I can't sit down."

It would be better if he hadn't accepted the gift money, but he had just gone over to take a look and found that it had already been recorded in the account book.

He can't return the gift money, after all, it would be too offensive to return it.

When Zheng Jianguo heard this, he took a look and found that there were indeed many people.

He thought for a moment and said, "I remember you bought a lot of vegetables when you went to the market yesterday?"

Zheng Qinglin nodded, not knowing what the uncle was talking about.

"Yes, I saw that the food was cheap and bought a lot. I also bought a lot of meat, and I put it in the refrigerator."

"Uncle, why are you asking this?"

Zheng Jianguo explained, "If there are too many people and there are not enough dishes, take out the vegetables and meat you bought yesterday and let Xiao Fei Ge make them."

Zheng Qinglin suddenly realized that the uncle had this idea.

"No problem, uncle, but it's still early to leave the table, what if someone is here?"

It's only nine o'clock, and there are still two hours to leave the table.

If nothing else, these two hours must be the most crowded.

After all, at this time, many people have eaten, and the pots have been brushed after feeding the animals.

Zheng Jianguo thought for a while, and suddenly saw the big horn on the telephone pole.

Pregnant.

Not long after, the villagers who were busy at home or about to come out of their homes heard the loudspeaker in the village. ….

"Hey, I'll tell you."

Zheng Jianguo talked about the matter, afraid that someone would not hear it clearly, so he said it again.

The villagers who were about to go to Zheng Qinglin's house and halfway through heard the words on the loudspeaker and stopped one by one.

"Why don't you let this go?"

"Oh, I said I wanted to go early, now it's okay, there are too many people to go, I can't sit down."

"Gotcha, go back, don't stand stupid."

"You said that these people are really, they actually went so early, it was only nine o'clock, and more than 200 people had already gone."

"Who's to say it's not, to go so early."

There were also villagers who didn't go when they heard what Zheng Jianguo said on the loudspeaker, and they all showed surprised expressions.

What's the situation, I haven't even left the door, so I'm not allowed to go.

The villagers who had already arrived at the place were glad to hear the news, and they were really lucky.

"Good guys, how many people are here, actually shouting on the loudspeaker."

Fan Hai said in surprise when he heard what was said on the loudspeaker.

Zheng Fei and Wang Mingming stood and sat one by one, both very close to the stove.

Because of the sound from the pot and the blower, the two of them couldn't hear it very clearly.

"What is that talking about?"

Zheng Fei turned his head to Fan Hai and asked.

Fan Hai told the two of them.

After listening, the two looked at each other, and they both saw surprise in each other's eyes.

Can it still be like this?

For those of them, everyone has something to talk about after today.

After all, the pigs were born to burn a big feast, and relatives came to get pig feed and loudspeakers to shout not to be there.

Each of these three topics can be talked about for half a year.

After returning from the brigade headquarters, Zheng Jianguo came to Zheng Qinglin's side and said, "How is it, no one is coming, right?"

Zheng Qinglin nodded.

"Uncle, the method you said is really easy to use."

"Except for a few people who came in at the beginning, no one has come by now."

Hearing that this method was useful, Zheng Jianguo said happily, "As long as it is useful."

"Alright, you go and get busy, I'll go and see the card players."

Without this trouble, Zheng Qinglin began to prepare for the wine that he would drink.

Two different bottles of liquor at a table, two cases of beer, or four bottles of liquor.

He didn't buy too many drinks because not too many people drank them.

Just like the last time I was at Zheng Hedong's house, I prepared so much wine, and when I finally cleaned up, I found that there was still a lot of wine that I hadn't drunk.

Drank only a little bit.

Zheng Qinglin always remembered this matter, so when he bought wine, he directly kept the account first, and waited until the banquet was over before settling the bill.

"Let's talk about it first, you can't take the bag out when it's time to eat."

"yes, we can't do that here, don't make people laugh."

"No, we can't do that here."

Seeing that the time was almost up, Zheng Jianguo, as the steward, began to arrange for people to sit down.

Zheng Qinglin stood at the gate of the courtyard and watched, and found that the thirty tables were already full, and there were still more than twenty people left who had not found a place.

It's broken.

There are still a lot of people.

That's the whole thing.

Seeing this, Zheng Qinglin can't be rectified.

When had he seen this? ….

There are so many more people, wouldn't they all laugh at him if others knew?

At this time, he could only hope for Zheng Jianguo.

As a steward, Zheng Jianguo did not panic when he saw so many more people.

He came up to him and said, "Take out the table where you are eating, and then go to the neighbor's house and borrow some tables and benches."

When the two tables next to him heard this, they said, "I have a table at home, I'll go and move it for you."

"I have two of them, and I'll bring them here for you."

"I don't have a square table at home, I have a bench, I'll move here."

"Uncle, do you see what is missing?"

When it comes to the critical time, it's still your own people.

When I heard that I was going to use a table and a bench, the people who were close to him got up and walked home.

Zheng Jianguo said to Zheng Qinglin: "There are so many more people, the dishes are definitely not enough, you go and take out all the vegetables and meat you bought yesterday, send them to Xiaofei, and then explain the situation here to him clearly."

"Hey, hey, I'll go."

Zheng Qinglin ran to the hall, opened the refrigerator and took out the meat, and then came to the east room of the hall with the meat and took all the vegetables in the bag.

When he came to the cooking place, Zheng Fei was frying taro and sweet potato balls.

Seeing him coming over with a large bag, Zheng Fei asked suspiciously, "Brother, what are you doing here?"

Seeing the meat in his hand and a bag of vegetables, I thought he was going to ask him to help make a few dishes to eat by himself.

Yet, when he

Hearing Zheng Qinglin's words, the whole person was stunned.

What's the matter, there are too many people, not enough to sit, and there are a few more tables.

At the thought of five or six more tables, Zheng Fei felt his head hurt.

He started by cooking according to thirty tables.

Even when I buy food, I buy it according to the large table of thirty tables.

Now it's good, there are a few more tables.

Seeing the vegetables and meat in his hand, Zheng Fei put down the colander and stepped forward to take it and check it.

The meat is still fresh in the refrigerator.

Not to mention a few vegetables, they are in good condition, and I can't tell that I bought them yesterday.

Hand the dish to Fan Hai and ask him to thaw the meat and wash it out.

"I'll divide the stir-fry into two dishes and see if I can make up five tables."

"By the way, these extra tables are not enough plates and chopsticks, and you have to find a way."

Zheng Fei said suddenly.

Hearing that there was still a shortage of plates and chopsticks, Zheng Qinglin scratched his head and said, "I'll figure it out."

Zheng Qinglin thought of the plates and chopsticks at home, and didn't know if it was enough.

Bringing the plates and chopsticks, Zheng Fei calculated and found that these chopsticks and plates were not enough at all.

"Gone?"

Zheng Qinglin shook his head, wiped his sweat and said, "No, I just have these plates and chopsticks at home."

"Then borrow some from your neighbors." Zheng Fei said.

Hearing Zheng Fei's words, Zheng Qinglin nodded.

That's all there is to it.

Outside, Zheng Jianguo was talking to others.

Seeing him come out, he hurriedly asked, "How is it?" What did Dumbo say?"

Zheng Qinglin said what Zheng Fei said.

Hearing that the plates and chopsticks were not enough, the neighbor standing on the side hurriedly said, "Not enough plates and chopsticks? I have it at home, I'll get it."

"What? Lack of plates and chopsticks, don't worry, I have them at home, I'll go get them."

Hearing that there was still a shortage of plates and chopsticks, someone stood up and walked home.

After three or four busy trips back and forth, Zheng Qinglin finally arranged for the extra two dozen people to sit down.

More than 20 people sat at five tables, and five square tables were placed squarely outside.

These twenty or so people were all in their thirties and forties, and some of them had never sat at such a table when they ate a big feast.

But some older people have done it.

In the past, the house used the neighborhood's tables and benches for a lot of things.

Even pots and pans are borrowed.

In the past, there were these disposable cups, chopsticks and the like in the countryside, but there were no such things.

It wasn't until the eighties and nineties when the economy opened up that these things came out.

After arranging to sit down, Zheng Qinglin came to the cooking place and said to Zheng Fei.

After hearing that it was okay to start the table, Zheng Fei shouted.

"Open the table~".

Zheng has a small goal
