Pei Mingfang wiped away her tears of joy, called for help from four female bodyguards, found a few boxes on the car that had already arrived home, and forced them to Uncle Wei.
Uncle Wei and a group of men who came to help looked at the words and pictures on the box, and their breathing became short immediately.
Brand new and unopened boxes, two boxes are Wuliangye and three boxes are Zhonghua Tobacco.
Uncle Wei made a little estimate. If it were true, it would cost at least 20,000 to 30,000, right?
"Second Uncle Wei, thank you for your hard work today." Pei Mingfang said, "This is just a little thought. Let's go back and share it!"
"What...how does this happen?" When Uncle Wei refused with a dry smile, several younger men next to him had already taken the box in their hands, with excitement on their faces.
"It's nothing. When you are free in a few days, you can come to my house for dinner again!" Pei Mingfang said with a smile.
"Okay, thank you then, Mingfang!" Ershu Wei said with a smile, and then said to Pei Bai: "Brother Qi, you really gave birth to a good daughter. Among the several villages in our village, she is the most promising.
!”
What do old people like to hear?
Isn’t it just the words of welcome from the neighbors?
Pei Bai and Bai Dezhen laughed from ear to ear after hearing this, and their faces were glowing when they returned home.
Pei Bai and the others came with them, as well as some relatives and old neighbors. However, when they walked back, they did not go to Pei's house. It was the third sister, Pei Mingfen, who said a few words to her sister that finally made Pei Mingfang wake up.
, hurriedly greeted the bodyguards and presented some gifts that had been prepared long ago, and the relatives and neighbors naturally praised and complimented him again.
The Pei family's house is a typical rural tile-roofed house structure. There are five rooms in a courtyard, the kitchen is outside, and there is a dam.
Electric lights were turned on in the middle of the courtyard. Six sumptuous banquet tables were placed bustlingly. Only then did Xiao Qi understand why his relatives and neighbors had left. Originally, the Pei family did not expect so many people to come back. The banquet prepared was not enough.
, I can only feel wronged by my relatives and neighbors.
There are two sons and two daughters in the Pei family. Except for Pei Mingfang, who is married, the rest are living in the village, but they are also divided into separate families, each with their own house.
But once they gathered together, there were seventeen or eight people in his family, plus the twenty or thirty people from Xiao Qi's side, the five banquet tables were still full.
If we include relatives and neighbors, this cold dish would be easy to prepare. But there is no way to make hot and steamed dishes, so the Pei family can only apologize and ask them to come back tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. Anyway, the girl has returned to her hometown.
Opening a running restaurant for a few days is nothing.
Originally, the old lady Bai Dezhen was not that generous, but when she saw three carts full of gifts being escorted home first, all of which were expensive goods, and she heard that half of them were on the way, she immediately became rich.
Although her daughter had sent out several large boxes of cigarettes and wine before, Bai Dezhen didn't say anything when she saw that there were still twenty or thirty boxes of cigarettes and wine here.
The family was sitting at the dinner table. After running all the way and waiting for a day, everyone was hungry. After Pei Bai said a few words, the lively scene at the banquet began.
The uncle, second uncle, and third aunt had not seen their sister for many years, and they even started making noises at the wine table. Jia Jiandong was poured several glasses of wine in a row without knowing why.
The old man and the old grandmother over there looked at their brothers and sisters talking and laughing with smiles, and even after taking a few sips of wine themselves, they started talking loudly.
Xiao Qi sat at the junior table, because he and Jia Yuwen dressed differently from his cousins, and they had not seen each other for several years, so naturally there was some estrangement.
In addition, Jia Yuwen was still holding Xiao Kaixin, who had woken up, in her arms. Her daughter's round eyes were looking around, making several young people couldn't help but take a second look at her.
The age of marriage in rural areas is very early. Many girls get pregnant and have children at the age of seventeen or eighteen, and then go through the formalities a few years later. This is very common.
Jia Yuwen's two cousins and one cousin all have children. Her cousin Pei Xiuxiu is more than 5 years old, and she is only one year older than Jia Yuwen.
"I'm not good at drinking. The alcohol content of the liquor at home is too high. I can only drink half a glass today, otherwise I won't be able to chat with you later!" Xiao Qi held up the glass and said, "Here, this is my first time.
If I go back to Xiaoyu’s parents’ home, then this is also my home. From now on, don’t see anyone outside, don’t be polite, we are all one family!”
"Yes, that's a good point, brother-in-law!" the eldest cousin Pei Daoyue said with a smile and a toast.
Several other relatives of the same generation who were about the same age mostly had expressions like the eldest cousin. Only the younger cousins at the table next to them focused on the big fish and meat on the table.
Today's climate is no longer the same as it was a few decades ago when we could barely have enough to eat, but living in a poor mountain, people don't live a very well-off life on weekdays, such as chickens, ducks, fish, etc.
All major dishes are available, which can only be eaten during the holidays at least.
Of course, the younger generation who are older cannot only see the food and drink during the festival. After starting a family and starting a business, they see more aspects and are more comprehensive, and the more they need to consider.
The several cars of gifts not only stunned the adults, they also went to school and accepted external trend information from time to time. After just looking at a dozen things, they realized that this was a big name brand advertised on TV.
, the price is definitely expensive.
Forget it, you need to buy expensive things when you go back to your hometown to celebrate the New Year. Many people do this even if they have to spend all their money. It is not impossible for my aunt and her family to buy so many things.
But there were three tables of male and female bodyguards sitting next to them, as well as a few middle-aged Japanese women who obviously spoke foreign languages. They were said to be the nannies of Xiaowen's family. This immediately made Jia Yuwen's image in their minds suddenly improve again.
Several levels.
Are you kidding me? A wealthy family has one nanny, and only a former landowner could have four nannies, not to mention that they hired Japanese nannies, and there are still a few at home who are resting!
This is not something that a simple wealthy family can have!
Considering the family background of my aunt, I heard that it was very difficult a few years ago. My uncle is just an ordinary worker. How could he be so prosperous all of a sudden?
Then there is only one possibility: if Xiaowen marries well, her husband comes from a super rich family!
With everyone reaching such a consensus, even the elders have to look at Xiao Qi and Jia Yuwen in a different light, let alone their juniors. It is reasonable to have some humble flattery.
In such an atmosphere, although the older generation was lively and lively, the atmosphere at Xiao Qi's table was not lively at all, and was still a bit restrained.
Xiao Qi naturally understood what was going on, but he didn't force it deliberately. As he said before, we were all a family, and he didn't care about such a momentary estrangement.
But he obviously talked a little more, chatting with these cousins about family affairs and some new things happening in foreign countries, which made them listen with interest.
Jia Yuwen was originally a relatively quiet girl. Under this situation, she knew that the cousins at this table had low self-esteem, but she didn't know how to get rid of their unfamiliarity. Now, watching her husband talk and laugh, they feel happy from time to time.
I laughed, and my heart suddenly felt sweet.
Xiao Qi was eating while talking.
As a Sichuan native, Xiao Qi can't eat anything spicy, but he only has a soft spot for fatty food.
In his previous life in the United States, when he was bored in his dormitory apartment, he would often make braised pig's trotters to eat, and they were the kind of pig's trotters with fat meat. It would be useless to eat a pig's trotter weighing three to five kilograms in one meal.
pressure.
Twice-cooked pork is also Xiao Qi's favorite dish. After frying the twice-cooked pork, it is directly put into the rice. The greasy rice will also feel fragrant.
Therefore, when he was at the table today, his favorite thing was to use his chopsticks to pick up the fatty twice-cooked pork.
"Well, the pork at home is really delicious!" After eating a few more bites, Xiao Qi couldn't help but praise, "The smell of lard is definitely not ordinary domestic pigs! This pig breed should be different.
Bar?"
"Haha, brother-in-law, you are really good at eating!" Pei Xiuxiu said with a smile, "This pig is our authentic Xiangxi black pig, and it is an old breed passed down from hundreds of years ago. It is completely different from the pork on the market today.
!”
"Let me tell you, the texture and fineness of this fat meat are different from the wild pigs I usually eat." Xiao Qi said, "It turns out to be the legendary Xiangxi black pig!"
Because Xiao Qi likes to eat twice-cooked pork, he has done research on pork.
For example, most of the pork currently on the market in Sichuan is bred from Canadian white pigs. This kind of white pig can soar to 300 kilograms in 180 days, and can eat anything. It is most suitable for breeding and selling for money, so everyone
They all come to breed this kind of pigs.
The real native pigs, that is, the local breeds in Sichuan, are basically not ready for slaughter until 10 months, and the maximum weight is more than 200 kilograms, which is much worse than the Canadian white pigs. Therefore, even farmers are not willing to raise these pigs to eat their own pork.
Breed native pigs.
Therefore, when you eat twice-cooked pork now, you have to add more oil and stir-fry it to get the appearance of twice-cooked pork. Unlike before, after heating the pot, you just put the semi-fat and lean meat in and stir-fry it.
At that time, the twice-cooked pork could still produce a lot of oil, which would be enough for cooking next time.
The feeling of twice-cooked pork stir-fried with oil is completely different from that of the fatty meat stir-fried with oil itself. Authentic foodies will know this as soon as they taste it.
Nowadays, most of the twice-cooked pork in restaurants is seasoned with tempeh, bean paste, MSG, etc. In Xiao Qi's opinion, it is not as fragrant as the twice-cooked pork stir-fried with the simplest salt. (To be continued.)
