Chapter 110 Lively Days
Old Man Li chose to hold a warm-up banquet on the seventh day of the twelfth lunar month. Wang told his sons to invite the villagers to tell everyone not to bring gifts, just to eat, drink and drink.
Wang considered that Li Mingyi's marriage was coming, and although the villagers have lived a lot better now, they are always a little overwhelmed with the gifts.
On the seventh day of the lunar month, the Li family started to work hard inside and out early in the morning. Almost all the villagers in Lijia Village invited them. The women in the village came to the Li family early to help with their work.
"Aunt San, I said that if you don't accept gifts today, why did you still take so many?" Zhao Yunlan looked at the woman in front of her helplessly.
"Hey, it's all things that are not tight, just this basket of eggs." The woman responded to Zhao Yunlan's words, but did not hand the basket to Zhao Yunlan. She carried the basket and walked into the house in a diameter. She accurately found the kitchen location, put down the basket and helped her work.
Zhao Yunlan had hired Aunt San and several women from the village to cook for the workers who built the house, so she almost participated in the construction of the house.
The village chief also brought the Li family with his family, each carrying bacon and sausages.
"Uncle Village Chief, hurry in and sit down. Everyone said that you won't let you bring Eli Lilly. Today is just a lively group. Tell me about this, alas!" Li Mingren stood next to Zhao Yunlan and looked at Zhao Yunlan.
Village Chief Li laughed and refused to answer Li Mingren's words, and said only: "Mingren, congratulations, congratulations, our village's first scholar."
Seeing that the village chief was not in a relationship, Li Mingren had to take the village chief in and sit in first. Zhao Yunlan led the village chief’s wife into the house to put things in. "Aunt, oh~ I said I would not let the gifts come to my door." Zhao Yunlan mentioned this topic again.
The village chief’s wife: “What a tribute, don’t say it. Tell me if you have anything to do.”
In this way, Zhao Yunlan collected all kinds of agricultural products from the kitchen in the morning. Zhao Yunlan went to talk to Wang, but Wang was helpless. She went to thank the villagers one by one and asked Zhao Yunlan to write down all the things she sent.
In addition, Wang also invited the eldest brother and Zhao family of Dawang Village.
"Little sister, the hardships are over and the joys are coming." Wang Dalong looked at the sister in front of him and the newly built house and choked up.
Wang Cuifen: "Brother, sister-in-law, I sat in the house in a cold weather and said that I would stay for one night tonight."
Hu Xiu: "Shuming, Shude, move the things to your sister-in-law."
Wang: "Sister-in-law, why do you get so much?"
Hu Xiu: "It's all what you like to eat before, and I specially brought it to you."
Wang held Hu Xiu's hand: "It's still my sister-in-law who loves people."
Hu Xiu patted Wang's hand: "But they were all planted by your elder brother! It's still yours and everything is fine now."
As soon as Wang took his elder brother and sister-in-law into the house, someone came to the Zhao family.
Li Mingren bowed one by one: "Father-in-law, mother-in-law, eldest brother, sister-in-law, younger brother. Come into the room and sit and drink a cup of hot tea to warm your body."
Zhao Yunlan had just gone to the kitchen to work hard, but when she heard that her family had arrived, she hurried to the front hall to see someone.
Jiang was talking politely to Wang when he heard Zhao Yunlan shouting: "Dad, mom, you are here!"
Mrs. Jiang: "You girl, jog slowly, why are you anxious?"
Zhao Yunlan acted coquettishly and said, "Didn't you miss you anymore!"
Jiang took out a set of four treasures in the study, "This is a gift for the son-in-law to pass the scholarship. We don't understand this ink, paper and inkstone. This is your brother's choice."
Li Mingren: "Thank you, my father-in-law and mother-in-law. This money is obviously a good deal. My mother-in-law has been bothering her, and I have worked hard."
Zhao Yuncheng smiled and said, "Congratulations to my brother-in-law for being admitted to the scholar."
Jiang turned to Wang and continued, "My mother-in-law, there is nothing good to send. Yun Song took the lead and went to the kitchen."
Wang: "Oh, mother-in-law, you're spending money. Yuhua, the room in the backyard is also warm, take Niu Niu to the backyard, there are few people there."
Huang Yuhua nodded, and Li Mingmei took Huang Yuhua to the backyard. Xiaobao liked this little sister so he followed her to the backyard.
Before, the village chairs were gathered together to eat, drink and chat. There were no male and female relatives in the front yard, so Zhao Yunlan did not distinguish this time, and most of the dining locations were arranged in the front yard.
There were also some tables arranged in the backyard, mainly waiting for Old Master Liu and Manager Wu to come.
Zhao Yunlan didn't expect that the prefect Liu would come with Old Master Liu. Zhao Yunlan and Li Mingren stood at the door to greet him and were stunned.
Prefect Liu laughed: "What you wrote on your invitation is to ask my father to come with the whole family!"
Mrs. Wang glared at Liu Yuanzhan.
Zhao Yunlan came to her senses and took Old Master Liu's family of three in. Wang and Old Man Li also knew the origin of the Liu family and hurried out to greet them.
Old Master Liu smiled kindly: "Brother Li, I'm here to drink today."
Old Man Li looked at Li Mingren's nervous tongue and his nervous tongue was a little knotted: "Liu, Brother Liu is here to make this... what a brilliant thing."
Lee Mingzhi said next to him: "Dad, it's a bright future!"
Old man Li glared at Li Mingzhi.
Old Master Liu laughed: "I'm so serious!"
Li Mingren: "Old man, old lady, go to have a cup of tea in the backyard to have a break."
Li Mingren accompanied him to the backyard, and Old Master Liu did not forget the homework during the school entrance examination.
Li Mingren was nervous.
When Wang met Mrs. Wang, the two old ladies seemed to be familiar with each other, and they were even more excited when they walked behind.
After arranging the Liu family to the backyard, Wang's mother's family and Zhao's family also went to the backyard together. Zhao Yunlan found that there were quite a lot of people coming today. Fortunately, the weather is good today, otherwise it would be a mess if there are too many people.
Li Mingmei and Zhang Xia were staring at the kitchen, and Zhao Yunlan could also take time to see the guests and check whether the tables and chairs were enough. In the morning, except when the Zhao family came, she didn't stop.
Manager Wu brought Wu Yanwei and Zhu Yue to the Li family together. Because the wedding date was approaching, Wu Yi did not come. Li Mingyi went to the village entrance from time to time to look at the Wu family's carriage. Finally, he felt relieved when the person entered the door.
Zhao Yunlan came out to meet Manager Wu, and Li Mingyi took the Wu family to the backyard, and the front yard and the backyard were bustling.
When the dishes in the kitchen were ready, the Li family brothers also went to the cellar to move out the wine. Zhao Yunlan took Zhang Xia and Li Mingmei to serve the food. The women in the village also listened to Zhao Yunlan's command. The four Li family brothers, Ye Min and Deng Yong, were responsible for maintaining order, and arranged for everyone to sit and pour wine for everyone.
Li Mingzhi set off firecrackers, and the Li family began to greet everyone for dinner and drink.
Zhao Yunlan prepared a lot of food today, and she thought that she could make everyone enjoy the meal and drink.
It was the first time that Manager Wu had a meal at the Li family. He ate several dishes made by Zhao Yunlan in a row. He thought that it was impossible to open a restaurant in this cooking skill.
Old Master Liu also likes the Li family’s food very much. After all, Old Master Liu has also tasted Zhao Yunlan’s cooking skills.
After drinking and eating, Old Master Liu was the first to say goodbye. After all, it was always inconvenient to have a son who was an official. I thought I would not be able to bring Liu Yuan to the exhibition next time, otherwise I would not be able to have fun.
Liu Yuanzhan was not recognized by the villagers, but Zhao Yunlan and his family were always a little restrained.
Manager Wu saw that the Liu family had left, but he didn't stay much. After all, the two families would become in-laws in a few days, and there was still a lot of work at home.
The villagers helped the Li family clean up the tables and chairs and went home. Seeing that there were still some leftovers, all meat they had never eaten, so they asked the woman who came to help in the morning to pack it and take it back.
The Li family now leaves the Wang family and the Zhao family, and the three families sit in the house together, eating warm snacks and chatting.
Now there are too many houses, so it is convenient to keep people in.
