134. The unpopular Shen Wanni
Shen Da's birthday party was very grand, and everyone in the village, relatives and friends were invited.
On the day of her birthday, relatives came to Shen Ruoxi's house in an endless stream. The large courtyard was full of people and there was a lot of noise.
Shen Ruoxi brought peanut melon and fructose candies from the house for everyone to pass the time, "Everyone can eat whatever you want and help yourself."
"Thank you Ruoxi."
"Ruoxi, you are so generous."
"Ruoxi, you have made a lot of money, buying so many things."
Shen Ruoxi didn't say anything, just smiled, and then distributed snacks to the tables.
The table was borrowed from a villager's home, and a set of tables and stools were marked. After the meal, the tables and stools were returned. This was the first time she had seen such a banquet scene, and she found it very strange.
"Kang'er, come here." Shen Ruoxi still had a handful of peanuts in her hand, ready to give to her nephew.
Xiao Kang'er heard Shen Ruoxi's call and ran over quickly. He opened his pocket consciously and said, "Second aunt, can you give me the peanuts too?"
Shen Ruoxi put the peanuts into Xiao Kang'er's pocket, touched his head, and said funnyly, "I'll give them to you together, and you and your friends will eat them together later."
Xiaokang'er nodded his head and said obediently, "Auntie, I understand."
Shen Ruoxi smiled and said, "Be good."
After handing out snacks, Shen Ruoxi walked under the small cooking tent, "Uncle Chef, do you need help?"
Chef Shen waved his hand. He was very fat and his belly was bulging. The fat beside him was trembling. He smiled and said, "Are you looking down on your chef uncle? You don't need help with this matter." "
Shen Ruoxi laughed, "Then I'll go see something else. The chef is working hard here."
Chef Shen waved his hand and said loudly, "Let's go, let's get ready, it's time to start the dinner."
"I'm going to invite everyone to take a seat." Shen Ruoxi walked towards the crowd, "Please take a seat, it's time to eat."
It was approaching noon and there were no guests coming.
After listening to Shen Ruoxi's words, the guests hurriedly looked for seats, especially the children, who rushed directly to the empty stools and grabbed the seats.
Eating is what everyone longs for most, and it will be ready in no time.
There are many tables and stools arranged, so everyone has a seat.
After sitting down, Shen Ruoxi went to let Shen Ruohao lead everyone to serve the food.
The cold vegetables are cut and placed in the main room, one plate on top of the other, placed high on the chopping board. When serving, each person puts a dish on the tray, and then each person puts it on the table.
In this way, we go back and forth for dinner and serve all the cold dishes on each table.
The cold dishes include fried crispy peanuts, thinly sliced white meat, three shreds, and braised pig ears.
The four cold dishes were generous and piled high.
Looking at the cold dishes, everyone just swallowed their saliva.
Cold dishes were served and stir-fried dishes were served. There were two stir-fried dishes, one was stir-fried with lean meat and fungus, and the other was stir-fried with twice-cooked pork and green pepper.
The aroma is so fragrant that everyone present is even more greedy.
At this time, Shen Ruohao handed chopsticks to everyone on the table, "Everyone eat slowly, there are many dishes behind."
Getting chopsticks means you can eat. They are all from the village. Their food at home is mediocre. Some people are even often hungry. When they see such dishes, they all gobble them up.
Finally, there are steamed vegetables, one steamed meat chicken, one steamed meat duck, one steamed pork with pickled vegetables, and one steamed rice with wine.
When these dishes are served, this little pickle is served, indicating that the dishes are ready.
Shen Da took care of Zhang Laifeng and came out and toasted everyone a glass of wine, "Thank you all for coming to dinner today. I would like to toast you all this glass of wine. Enjoy your meal and drink."
"Shen Da, we also toast you, may you live a long life."
"Thank you very much, drink it."
Many people had a drink with Shen Da, and the atmosphere became lively.
After drinking, the host sat down and left a table for them next to them. The host and the helpers sat at that table.
Shen Ruohao ate a piece of white meat and said, "Uncle Chef, the food you cook is so delicious."
Chef Shen was very helpful, "Hey, eat more."
Shen Da toasted Chef Shen alone and said, "Thank you for your hard work, brother, you can eat as much as you want. I'll have to trouble you a bit in the evening."
Chef Shen waved his hand, "This is a piece of cake for me, but I should say congratulations to you on your recovery."
"Thank you very much." Shen Da said happily.
I don’t know if the food cooked by Chef Shen was so delicious, but the food on every table was eaten up, and everyone’s face was shiny.
Women in the village do not need to be greeted, they spontaneously clear away the dishes and then take them to the kitchen for cleaning.
Shen Ruoxi also helped wash the dishes after the meal. She was so busy that it took half an hour to tidy up.
It's really tiring to hold a banquet.
Xiao Kang'er ran over, lifted up his clothes, and patted his belly, "Second aunt, look at my belly bulging."
Shen Ruoxi quickly put down his clothes and lifted up his pants, "Don't expose your stomach, you will feel stomach pain after a while, you know?"
"I know, Second Aunt, I'm going to play." Xiao Kang'er happily ran away to find his friends.
Zhong Zhouyi walked towards Shen Ruoxi with a smile on his face, "Congratulations to uncle for his recovery."
Shen Ruoxi smiled and said, "Thank you."
Zhong Zhouyi looked around, "How can I help you?"
Shen Ruoxi said, "I'm done with my work. I don't need to do anything else. Let's take a rest."
Zhong Zhouyi nodded, "How about I make you a cup of tea?"
"Okay, come with me." Shen Ruoxi brought Zhong Zhouyi to the main room and gave him some tea. "I'll bring a pot of boiling water."
Zhong Zhouyi was raised by a wealthy family. He knew a lot of things and had studied tea ceremony. However, it was just not suitable for him to do such elegant things in this village, so he just went to the bar.
Shen Suhong came over and said, "You two are quite good at enjoying it." She poured herself a cup of tea and said, "I don't think the tea is that delicious."
Shen Ruoxi took a sip and said, "It's not tea, it's the mood."
Shen Suhong smiled and said, "With you scholars, my brain is going to get bigger. You can drink it yourself, I'm out."
Shen Ruoxi smiled and said, "Suhong is still a good character, carefree and carefree."
Zhong Zhouyi agreed, "Indeed."
After a short break, it was time to prepare the evening meal again. This is the custom. We eat lunch and dinner.
As the host, Shen Ruoxi couldn't be lazy and went to help again.
Zhong Zhouyi was sitting in the main room drinking tea, and the aroma of tea filled the room.
Shen Wanni passed by and glanced at Zhong Zhouyi, "This guy obviously likes Shen Ruoxi, why can't he marry her easily?"
After thinking about it, she went back and walked into the main room, "Brother Zhou Yi, are you drinking tea alone?"
Zhong Zhouyi's face turned cold when he saw Shen Wanni. He still remembered that Shen Wanni and the other girls locked him and Ruoxi in a room. "Everyone was busy, but I was the most idle."
