Chapter 647 Showing Gifts
When Le’s father went to pick up grandma, the guests on the first floor came outside again, and the people upstairs also ran out of the shade.
Grandma Zhou Man took her two sons to Lejia. When the mother and son arrived near Lejia, they stopped at the intersection. When they saw the owner of the Yueqing workshop coming, they guessed that Lejia might have to wait a little longer before they could pick up the real grandma. , they sat and waited leisurely.
The Zhou family and Xiaohai just returned to Meizijing Village in the morning. Zhou Qiufeng married the Li family and had no children, and their family was poked in the back. Now that they have become uncles, they must return to the village to support their family.
Grandma Zhouman’s family has three loads of gifts, one load of local chickens, one load of wedding cakes and rice, and one load of eggs and clothes for the children, rice wine, red dates and longan and other odds and ends for the mother.
The mother and son saw Yueqing and the guests pouring out, guessing that someone was coming to pick them up, and waited with smiles.
Dad Le took three earth-shatteringly handsome guys across the hardened road in the bright sun, pedaled to the outside of Zhou's house, called "Mom", and entered Zhou's house happily.
Grandma Zhou, Brother Zhou, Aunt Zhou and Sister Zhou Chunmei had already made preparations and were sitting in the upper room waiting. When they heard Yueqing's voice, they all stood up to look. Then they saw Yueqing in formal clothes entering the door with three handsome guys.
Zhou Chunmei was a step behind. When she saw the three handsome guys behind Yue Qing, her pupils dilated in circles, her mouth opened, and she was dumbfounded.
Handsome guy, super handsome guy!
How come the Le family has such a handsome man? Who are they?
Zhou Chunmei watched the handsome guy getting closer and closer, dumbfounded and unable to move.
It was also the first time for Sister Zhou to see the young man behind Yue Qing. She looked straight at him for a moment and couldn't even remember who she was. When Brother Zhou saw Yue Qing bringing someone to pick up his mother, the joy of being respected filled his chest and he was so happy. The whole person is about to float.
He went up to meet him, patted his brother-in-law gratefully, and greeted the three handsome young men with a smile: "Handsome guys, sit down first. I'll go get you a cup of tea."
Xiao Xingxing couldn't make a sound, and He Xiaoba didn't want to speak, so Liu Xiangyang had no choice but to bite the bullet and go on stage: "Uncle Zhou, we'll come back for tea another day. Let's invite grandma to start today. The guests are waiting for grandma to drive."
"Okay, let's go there right away." Brother Zhou's heart was full of flowers, and he happily urged my mother to go to Lejia.
Yanxingliu Xiangyang and Luo Ziqing swarmed up without asking, and each of them grabbed a load of gifts. The Zhou family had four loads of gifts in total, two loads of native chickens, one load of wedding cakes, and one load of eggs, children's clothes, wine, and wedding dates. class items.
Dad Le picked up a load of chickens and left Zhou's house with the three handsome guys first and waited outside the gate.
Grandma Zhou's excited face burst into laughter. She trotted with brisk steps, leading the way. Brother Zhou followed. After walking two steps, he saw his wife and the girl staring at the air in a daze. Their faces turned black with anger. They had never seen this before. Women of the world, what a shame!
He was in a bad mood, so he returned quickly and pushed his wife and daughter hard: "Why don't you leave yet, are you waiting for someone to pick you up in an eight-carriage sedan?"
Aunt Zhou was awakened by the push, and when she saw Zhou Xialong's dark face, she said, She suddenly became weak and followed the man without saying a word. Zhou Chunmei was also frightened so much that her heart beat heavily, and she followed behind in a panic. After taking a few steps, she looked forward again, her heart pounding like a deer.
As soon as Grandma Zhou left Zhou's house, He Xiaoliu quickly lit the firecrackers. The long firecrackers screamed happily, and red confetti flew like peach petals.
Grandma Zhou walked towards Le's house amidst the singing of firecrackers, followed closely by brother Zhou, sister-in-law Zhou Chunmei, followed by Le's father and three handsome guys who were carrying luggage.
When Grandma Zhou and her family set off, the beautiful boy and three handsome boys also picked up Grandma Zhou Man. The entire Zhou family was also amazed by the four handsome young men.
The beautiful boy and his friends picked up Grandma Zhou Man and grabbed the luggage and carried it on their shoulders. The handsome boy was so beautiful that Grandma Zhou Man held her hand and didn't have to carry the luggage.
Grandma Zhou Man walked a few meters, and then Grandma Zhou set off. They quickened their pace and walked a little far from Le's home. The firecrackers that greeted them also sang joyful songs.
The people upstairs and the people watching the fun outside Le's house were surprised when they saw the gifts from the two grandmothers. The two grandmothers spent a lot of money and gave such heavy gifts.
Old Mrs. Chao stood first to meet Grandma Zhou, waiting for Grandma Zhou Man. When Grandma Zhou Man arrived, Mrs. Wang took Grandma Zhou Man with her. The two old ladies accompanied the two grandmothers. The uncles and aunts were accompanied by Chao Er and his wife. Guests on the upper floor also came in and sat down, and those who went to the rooftop to watch the excitement also went downstairs to sit on the second floor.
The two old ladies accompanied their grandmother into the Lejia main room and sat down to sit down at the banquet. The uncles and aunts took their seats at the banquet. He Xiaoshiwu, who did not go to be a porter, and Mr. Li quickly poured the tea. The tea that was served was warm tea for the grandmother and uncles. It must be warm, otherwise people will say that the tea will be cold before the person leaves.
When Grandma Zhou and Grandma Zhou Man all entered the main room, Le Yun took out the firecrackers and put them on the road outside, so that the two handsome boys in charge of setting off firecrackers were ready.
Zhou Chunmei was invited to sit down for the first time with her parents. She was still dazed and distracted. When a handsome guy handed her tea, she subconsciously looked over and saw a handsome and sunny face. Her heart froze and her brain finally recovered. Wake up.
After taking the tea, he looked at the handsome guy who handed her the tea, and then looked at the other handsome guy who handed her the tea to her grandma. She suddenly found that the other handsome guy was more handsome than the handsome guy here, and she couldn't help but look outside the room.
The handsome guys who helped carry the luggage returned to Lejia. The luggage carriers lined up in the empty space in front of the door. Village Chief Zhou registered first and then sang a salute: "Grandma is looking at her grandson. Thirty-six native chickens and a load of wedding cakes. Three hundred and sixty eggs, a barrel of rice wine, nineteen sets of clothes, and ninety-six red envelopes."
After singing the ceremony, Leyun made a gesture, and the handsome boy immediately lit a bunch of firecrackers, and the guests on the first floor also praised grandma for her generosity. , grandma loves her grandson.
Village Chief Zhou sang again: "Uncle and aunt see my nephew, and the red envelope is six thousand six."
Le Yun made a gesture, and the handsome boy lit another string of firecrackers. People in the hall praised the generosity of the uncle and aunt.
After singing the official grandma's ceremony, which is the ceremony of the cousin's grandma, Village Chief Zhou also sang it in a serious manner: "Little grandma sees her grandson, twenty-nine native chickens, a load of wedding cakes, three hundred eggs, a barrel of rice wine, and ten clothes." Six sets, six thousand six hundred and sixty-six red envelopes."
The handsome boy lit another string of firecrackers, and the guests praised the young grandmother for her generosity.
Village Chief Zhou sang the ceremony again: "My two uncles and aunties from my grandma's family are visiting my nephew, and each of them received six thousand sixty-six red envelopes."
Amidst the joyous singing of firecrackers, Li Daniu and others also praised Bao Ma's two uncles for their generosity.
After Village Chief Zhou finished singing the ceremony, he locked the counter and went into the hall to invite the guests to take their seats. The banquet would be opened soon after grandma arrived. He adjusted the seats for the guests, and the most distinguished guests were invited to take the seats.
Sitting on the table were the two grandmothers, as well as himself, Mrs. Chao, Mrs. Wang, and Professor Wanqi. Mrs. Wu was a distinguished guest and was also invited to join the table. There was also Mrs. Zhang Poluo, an old lady from the Zhou family. The remaining seats were Reserved for Zhou Qiufeng.
The real uncle and aunt, two uncles from the cousin's family, and Chao Er and his wife were the main companions. Zhou Chunmei, a child of the uncle's family, also occupied one seat, Boss Wu and his wife, and one seat was reserved for Yueqing who had to drink with the uncles.
The other two tables were the elders of the Zhou family, Mrs. Cheng Wu, Liu Lu, Li Daniu Luo Ban and other older generations. During the budget, two more seats were reserved, but due to the arrival of Li Daniu Luo Ban, they were all full.
Luo Ban and Li Daniu were originally invited to attend the banquet, but the two of them refused to go even under any circumstances and sat at the same table with the Zhou family clan members.
Village Chief Zhou went up to the second floor to check on the situation. The seats on the second floor were not adjusted. You could sit wherever you wanted. Then he went downstairs and asked the helpers Zhang Poluo and others to quickly lift the chickens and ducks into the alley between the Liu family next door. , clean the front of the house and set a table.
What he meant was to arrange for the handsome guys to go to the second floor and wait for Zhang Poluo and others to finish their work and sit outside to eat. The handsome guys were not happy and insisted on grabbing a table outside. The handsome guys won.
After arranging the seats, Village Chief Zhou went to the back kitchen and set off a long string of firecrackers. As soon as the firecrackers went off, everyone knew that the banquet was about to begin.
The helpers went to work immediately. Sister-in-law Liu and others distributed bowls, chopsticks, and wine glasses to the tables. Some diligent women also helped Sister-in-law Zhao and others. The tea bowls used for drinking tea were not taken away and could be used for drinks.
When the drinks and bottles of wine were distributed, Sister-in-law Liu smiled cheerfully: "I suggest everyone not to drink the drinks first, but drink the sweet glutinous rice wine first. Today's dishes contain precious medicinal materials in several dishes, including Cordyceps. Cordyceps is the kind that only has one gram. This rare item is more expensive than gold. Xiao Lele personally went to Z province to dig it up. This time I used half a catty of cordyceps. A meal of cordyceps costs 70,000 to 80,000 yuan. Remember not to waste it and miss this opportunity. , I still don’t know when I will be able to eat authentic Cordyceps dinner.”
"Stop bragging, where did the Le family get so much money?" Sister-in-law Wu disagreed.
The others ignored her and asked Sister-in-law Liu with a smile: "Have you tried it?" "
Of course, Xiao Lele prepared some dishes yesterday. We tasted a few first last night. The taste...hehe , you will know when you eat it later. I know that seafood, chicken soup, braised pork, chicken, duck, and pig's trotters are all cooked with Cordyceps soup. When combined with glutinous rice wine, it has unexpected effects." "Sister-in-law Liu, if the
taste It’s not authentic. I have to catch you and ask Xiao Lele to make it taste like you said.”
Many people joked, and Sister-in-law Zhao smiled and chimed in: “If you eat it and say it’s not delicious without conscience, I will I'll help you bring down Liu, so you can give her a good beating, so that she won't be a loudmouth in the future, and she won't be able to hide any good things she has to say first."
This made everyone laugh, and they waited expectantly for the food to be served.
On the first floor, handsome guys set out the dishes, place wine and drinks, and put the glutinous rice wine in duck pots, one for each table. The rice is served in buckets and placed in a corner, covered with gauze to prevent dust. A bucket of rice is placed in each room on the second floor.
The basic supplies are laid out and the food is served.
All the handsome guys came on stage to help. Sister-in-law Liu was waiting at the back of the house to help put dishes and bowls on the trays after finishing her work. Young Master Liu Shaoyan congratulated Xiaoba, Young Master Xiao, and Young Master Li Shaowan helped carry the dishes. The beautiful boy helped pass the dishes on the first floor, that is, When the tray bearer came, he helped bring the dishes to the table.
Miss Chao Er was the most relaxed. She was only responsible for combing Zhou Qiufeng's hair, and then ran outside to sit and eat melon seeds.
Luo Shaowang, He Xiaoshiwu and He Xiaoliu went up to the second floor, one to each room, and were responsible for delivering food. When the handsome guys showed their faces, the guests in the house all spoke softly.
Zhang Poluo, Liu Chengyoude, Cheng Youliang and all the handsome guys carried trays to the first and second floors respectively. When the aroma hit them, people who were not hungry at first felt hungry.
When Sister-in-law Wu noticed that her seatmate was looking at her, she immediately pretended to be stupid. She had made sarcastic remarks before, but now she had no confidence.
We don’t eat hot pot in summer, so all the dishes are served at once, and the last green vegetable is served. Zhang Poluo and others go to the second floor to take their seats. There are four Cheng family brothers, Zhang Poluo and his wife, Liu Lu and his wife, and Chen Dalian and his wife. table.
Village Chief Zhou went outside to set off a bunch of firecrackers again. The first time he set off the firecrackers was to urge people to sit down and notify anyone who hadn't come yet. The second time he set off the firecrackers was to officially notify that the banquet was about to begin.
When the sound of firecrackers spread, a backpacker hurried into the village and went to a house to ask for directions.
The banquet was about to begin. Le Yun entered the new mother's bedroom and invited Aunt Feng out for dinner. She picked up her younger brother. Le's father was waiting at the door, grabbed Zhou Qiufeng's hand, and walked with the girl to the place facing the room. The couple went from being a beautiful boy to another. The waiter picked up the wine glass from the tray.
Village Chief Zhou came into the house, took the wine glasses, and thanked everyone for coming. The previous masters served first as a sign of respect. Le's father, Zhou Qiufeng, also drank a glass of wine to show respect. Zhou Qiufeng drank glutinous rice wine.
The guests on the first floor join us for a drink, and the hosts immediately greet the guests for dinner.
Village Chief Zhou took the host's family of four to the second floor. He expressed his gratitude to everyone in the living room and drank a toast first. As for the person who poured the wine, Village Chief Zhou had told some people early to let them go. Sit in different places and help pour wine for people at the same table, so you don’t have to assign someone to take responsibility.
Then I went to the three side rooms to express my gratitude one by one. When the Le family couple appeared, the women upstairs looked in the direction of Sister-in-law Wu in a tacit understanding. Sister-in-law Wu and her daughter came to show off in red, but the Le family family simply did not wear any. Red, Yueqing Zhou Qiufeng wears beige, which is very similar to the color of the ancient emperor's dragon robe. The baby is wearing pure cotton clothes, wrapped with a piece of purple silk, which is similar to the color of Leyun's skirt.
Yueqing was wearing a tie, and Zhou Qiufeng was wearing a beige long skirt. Her hair was combed into a bun with a few shiny hairpins. The couple's skin was very fair, and standing together reminded people of the appearance of a talented woman.
Le Yun, who was holding her younger brother, was like a luminous body. No matter where she stood, it was impossible for anyone to ignore her.
Beige and purple are extremely noble colors. A family of four wearing clothes in two colors is particularly warm and friendly.
Everyone wanted to laugh, but Sister-in-law Wu was trying to steal the show. Sister-in-law Wu wore red because she wanted to overshadow Zhou Qiufeng, but she ended up wearing the color of an emperor's dragon robe, leaving Zhang Ke's wife to perform a one-man show.
When Sister-in-law Wu saw Yue Qing and Zhou Qiufeng, her face turned red and white, and even the powder on her face could hardly cover her face.
Village Chief Zhou greeted everyone and took the four members of the Le family downstairs.
Le's father Zhou Qiufengchao didn't stare at Sister-in-law Wu. He turned around calmly. Le's father put his hand on the head of the little cotton-padded jacket and rubbed it. He was extremely pleased. Fortunately, he had a little cotton-padded jacket. If the leg hadn't healed yet, the one named Wu would still I don’t know how to cause trouble.
Leyun asked her father and Aunt Feng to accompany the elders. She sent her brother back to bed, closed the door, and went out to have dinner with the handsome guys.
There are thirteen young people in total, and only Chao Er and classmate Le are girls.
Leyun just sat down and stood up: "Another visitor from afar is here!"
