The deputy township head's name is Sun Liwei, and he was sent down from the county government office to gild.

The young man is ambitious and a little arrogant.

Seeing Liang Jiangtao's family coming, he heard that Liang Wei was the deputy director of the county cotton spinning factory, so he just nodded coldly.

When he was in the county government office before, he also went to the cotton spinning factory, and the director and secretary of the factory treated him with great courtesy and respect.

I haven't seen this Liang Wei.

Peng Bo, the secretary of the management area, is very enthusiastic, his family is also from a nearby village, and he knows Liang Wei when he is a child and calls him brother.

"Liang Viagra, I haven't seen you for a long time, have a drink in a while! Jiang Tao's brothers and sisters are so old, good, great! ”

"Secretary Peng, you did a good job, I heard many people in the county say that your secretary did a good job, and he spoke for the villagers." Liang Wei said with a smile.

"This is what we should do, if we don't do anything for the people in this position, won't it let people poke our backbone?"

"What's more, with a young and promising leader like Township Chief Sun to guide us in the direction, I just listen to the shouting!" Peng Bo slapped a sycophant that was not too big or small.

Sun Liwei was still holding it, not smiling, looking very cold.

At today's scene, he didn't want to come, but Peng Bo had to pull him over, saying that Liangjia Village was a big village, and Liang Hongbing had to give him face, so he came reluctantly.

After setting off the firecrackers, it was already past eleven o'clock, and the banquet officially began.

The traditional "four-course meal" is used.

Legend has it that it was founded based on the sage's journey around the world, and it profoundly influenced the food culture of the entire eastern and western regions of Han.

The banquet is sumptuous, served and drunk in an orderly manner, and is very traditional culture and Confucian etiquette style.

It shows the good fashion of respecting the old and respecting the virtuous and the harmony of the villagers.

The first is the seating.

The table is a table of eight immortals, naturally eight people sit, the most distinguished guest sits at the top, the main escort sits at the bottom opposite the head, and the others sit with status, seniority, and age.

In addition to Sun Liwei, Peng Bo, Liang Hongbing, Liang Jiangtao and his son, Xiong Luning, and two village party secretaries, there are eight people in total.

Wang Ying, Liang Jianghai and Liang Shan sat at other tables, accompanied by other village branch committees.

Sun Liwei is the leader of the township and a guest, so Liang Hongbing and everyone naturally pushed him to sit on the head.

He didn't shirk and sat down.

In Liang Jiangtao's view, this is a bit of a big deal.

His father, Liang Wei, is from the county, is the deputy director of the cotton mill, enjoys the treatment of the deputy department, and is old.

Even if Sun Liwei sits at the top, he must at least let Liang Wei go.

The link of humility allowed him to save directly.

But of course, Liang Wei didn't care about these things, and let him sit on the head, but it made him uncomfortable.

As soon as I sat down, there was already a waiter who came over with a basin, warm water inside, soap and towels next to it, please wash your hands first.

This is in line with the expression "eating together is not good for hands" in the "Book of Rites and Qu Li", which means that hands must be clean when eating with others.

These young people are all eighteen or nineteen-year-old young people in the village, with three people at each table, serving the table, pouring wine, serving food, lighting cigarettes, and ushering in the delivery.

They don't sit down, they stand with their hands down when they're fine.

The banquet of the village party secretary, no matter how hard it is, is worth it.

Moreover, they did not gain nothing, but the rest of the meal at the end was for them to enjoy.

It's a big meal they haven't eaten once in months.

The banquet in the countryside is extremely rich, and after the whole banquet, dozens of dishes may be less than one-third.

It is different from the later generations who advocate diligence and thrift.

In the countryside of that era, it was a shame to lose face if there were fewer vegetables.

It's all about being as rich as possible, getting as much as possible, even if it's wasted.

The young man couldn't help but swallow as he looked at the dishes in the bowl and smelled the aroma of the food.

At this time, the rural areas have not yet fully achieved food and clothing, and it may only take a few days to eat a meal of meat, and eating is the top priority.

The feast began.

First course, tea.

Start with a pot of strong tea.

Of course, it is not possible to drink tea on an empty stomach, so it is served with four fruit saucers and four dried butterflies.

The fruit dish is honey three knives, peanut dipping, preserved apricots, and preserved apples.

The dry dish is watermelon seeds, sunflower seeds, broad beans, and pistachios.

It adds up to eight, which means four flat and eight stable.

In fact, the whole banquet is carried out around the "four" and "eight", which is extremely exquisite.

This link is commonly used for guests to get to know each other and talk about their homes.

The contents of the saucer, generally no one touches.

Soon, these were all removed, and four cold dishes came up on the table, cold belly shreds, crystal pork knuckles, sauced beef and garlic cucumbers.

Then the wine also came up, and it was a bottle of high-end Jinshan wine that cost more than fifty yuan.

It was greeted with applause.

For a banquet like this, wine is a big expense, which table can't consume two or three bottles?

Ordinary people, taking out five yuan of wine, is no longer a loss of face.

A solid family, with ten dollars of wine.

The use of more than 50 yuan of Jinshan wine is a matter of hearing and asking, and the guests have sighed that Liang Hongbing is generous.

"In this way, Jiang Tao's nephew brought me two bottles of Wuliangye today, and it just so happens that the beloved Mayor Sun is also there, let's drink it together!" Liang Hongbing said generously.

"Good! The last time I drank Wuliangye was last year, and I drank it with the secretary of the township, and it was mellow, and I still have an aftertaste! Peng Bo slapped his thigh and became excited.

In this era, a bottle of Wuliangye costs more than 500 yuan, which is more expensive than Moutai, not to mention drinking it in the countryside, and I have never smelled it.

The two village party secretaries were also old wine Mengzi, and their eyes flashed with excitement.

As soon as the bottle of Wuliangye was opened, the house was full of aroma, and everyone was amazed.

A hint of unhappiness flashed in Sun Liwei's eyes.

I felt humiliated.

The family actually used Wuliangye to steal his limelight.

Although Wuliangye is expensive, it is nothing in his eyes.

At the beginning, he was in the county government, although he didn't drink it every day, but it was also a common wine for official receptions.

There are fewer opportunities to drink here, but you can occasionally taste it with the secretary mayor.

This group of rural native old hats climaxed all over their bodies when they heard Wuliangye, which made him look down on him a little.

Thinking that he is a young talent, a cadre who is focused on training in the county, he wants to eat at the same table with these mud legs, which is too cheap.

When Liang Hongbing poured him wine, he held his cup tightly, saying that there was an important meeting in the town in the afternoon, and he couldn't drink it.

"Mayor Sun, drink a little, today is a good day for the daughter of the secretary of the Red Army." Peng Bo persuaded.

"Can't drink, can't drink!" Sun Liwei did not enter the oil and salt.

Liang Hongbing endured the embarrassment and gave in a few times, but Sun Liwei still didn't drink it, so he had to give up.

There is no banquet without wine, and if the guests on the main seat do not drink, the atmosphere will be a little awkward.

Fortunately, Peng Bo will drive the atmosphere and not let the scene cool down.
