Chapter 133 133. Banquet
When Grandma Shen saw this fight, she hurried to the main room, frowned and asked, "Ruoxi, what are you doing?"
Shen Ruoxi's impression of Grandma Shen was very average, but Grandma Shen usually wouldn't come to ask about their family affairs, so she didn't have any bad feelings. "We are going to hold a birthday party for dad."
"You are planning to hold a banquet, why didn't you tell us?" Grandma Shen intuitively felt that she was an elder, but she was kept in the dark about this matter and was a little unhappy.
"We were just about to tell you that you were coming soon." Shen Ruoxi said patiently.
Grandma Shen looked at the brand new and beautiful furniture and her expression softened, "That's all, what are you going to do? Who are you going to invite? I'll give you a reference."
Shen Ruoxi said, "We brothers and sisters just want to dress up to bring happiness to the family and to get rid of bad luck."
Grandma Shen nodded, "It makes some sense. If you decide to do something big, you need to start preparing things immediately. Have you discussed it?"
Shen Ruoxi shook her head. It was her first time doing something like this and she wasn't quite sure about the process, "Not yet."
Grandma Shen thought for a while and said, "Let's just leave it to me and your grandpa to buy things. It can save you a lot of money."
Shen Ruoxi smiled and said, "Thank you so much, grandma."
Grandma Shen waved her hand, "Family, there's no need to be so polite." After saying that, she went out to find Shen Zhen and discussed setting up a banquet for her son.
Shen Zhen was surprised when he heard about this, but he thought that Dafang's family had been really unlucky in the past few years, and now that it was better, they should hold a banquet to celebrate, so he became active and helped prepare together.
After a while, everyone in the village knew that Shen Ruoxi's family was going to have a wedding banquet.
"Shen Ruoxi's children are quite filial. As soon as their father is well, they will throw a banquet for him."
"After Ruoxi's improvement, Shen Da's family came to the road to get good luck. I will go to help in a while and benefit from their family's good luck."
"I'll go too, it's a rare opportunity."
When the villagers hold banquets, people in the village go to each other's homes to help each other. It's not that particular, just make it and eat it.
As word spread that Shen Ruoxi's family was hosting a banquet, the village became completely lively.
Rice, noodles, oil, ginger, vinegar, tea, vegetables, meat, etc. needed to be prepared. The huge task made Shen Ruoxi busy. Fortunately, there were people from the village to help, otherwise it would not have been done.
The next day, my grandmother, second aunt, third aunt and other close relatives also came to the house to help. The day after tomorrow was the main banquet, and today we needed to slaughter chickens, ducks and fish in preparation.
Shen Ruoxi looked at the busy scene and thought to herself, she didn't expect that hosting a banquet would be so troublesome. In modern times, you can just go and book it, but it is obviously more humane and atmospheric, and he quite likes it.
After Zhong Zhouyi heard about it, he came to help, "Ruoxi, what can I do?"
Shen Ruoxi smiled and said, "You're just in time, can you help me keep the accounts?"
Zhong Zhouyi agreed immediately, "Okay, give me the pen and paper. I will make sure you remember it clearly."
…
Shen Ruohao carried a bucket to the beekeeping field, preparing to take honey from a beehive for a banquet.
Shen Lei saw him and walked over, "Are you getting honey again?"
Shen Ruohao glanced at Shen Lei, then continued busy with what he was doing, "It's still early, I'll pick up some banquets."
Shen Lei stood aside, "Shall I help you?"
Shen Ruohao thought for a while, nodded and said, "Come on, I'll teach you how to get honey."
Shen Lei's hands were really clumsy and he almost dropped a large piece of honey on the ground. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it."
Shen Ruohao said, "If you leave my honey on the ground, I will definitely get yours when your honey is available."
Shen Lei said with a smile, "I will be careful, I will definitely be careful."
Shen Lei's bee colony is getting bigger and bigger, but it is still in the beekeeping period and it will take another month to get honey.
Shen Ruohao's honey was collected for the first time more than a month ago.
After taking the honey, Shen Ruohao quickly returned home with the bucket and handed the honey to the cooks who were preparing to cook.
"This honey is brown in color and seems to be reflecting light. It's really nice."
"I don't know why the Shen brothers and sisters want to keep bees. This honey is so good, it will definitely sell for a good price."
"If you want to raise it, you can. It is said that as long as you give ten taels of silver, Ruoxi will teach you."
"It's so good, why don't you raise it?"
"I wish I had these ten taels of silver. If I did, I would definitely give it a try."
"I heard that Shen Lei paid ten taels of silver to raise him. Has he been raised successfully?"
"I don't pay much attention to this matter. If you want to know the specific situation, you'd better ask me."
"That's right. Okay, okay, I won't say any more and get ready to eat quickly."
…
In the afternoon, Shen Ruoxi came to the room to perform acupuncture on Zhang Laifeng.
Zhang Laifeng felt particularly happy as he listened to the bustling sounds outside, "Ruoxi, you siblings are still interested in hosting a birthday party for your father."
Shen Ruoxi gave Zhang Laifeng an injection and said with a smile, "When mother gets better, we will also prepare a banquet for mother."
Zhang Laifeng smiled and refused, "Mom, there is no need for that. How can a woman hold a big banquet? If your grandma is that age, it will be more or less the same."
Shen Ruoxi said sweetly, "Both men and women are the same. Dad is our father, and you are also our mother. In our hearts, you and dad have the same weight."
Zhang Laifeng was extremely happy, "Your words are enough."
Shen Ruoxi said, "I'm not talking to coax my mother, but I really mean it."
"Mom, I know." Zhang Laifeng said with a smile on his face. His daughter has really grown up and is so well-behaved.
Shen Ruohan came in with a tray, "Mom, it's time for dinner, I'll bring you food."
Shen Ruoxi looked back, the sumptuous dinner was particularly tempting, "Wait a moment, take out the needle before eating."
"Okay." Shen Ruohan put the tray on the table and stood on the stool to watch Zhang Laifeng get the needle, "Mom, does it hurt when the needle sticks in your body?"
Zhang Laifeng shook his head, "It doesn't hurt, it's just a little numb, like there are ants moving there."
Shen Ruohan breathed a sigh of relief, "As long as it doesn't hurt."
After a while, Shen Ruoxi pulled out the needles one by one and put them into the needle bag, put them away again, and put on Zhang Laifeng's clothes, "Ruohan, mom can eat now."
"Okay." Shen Ruohan brought the bowl over, sat on the edge of the bed, and fed Zhang Laifeng a mouthful, "Mom, is it delicious?"
"It's delicious, who made it?" Zhang Laifeng nodded.
"Chef Shen from the village made it." Shen Ruohan said, "He is fine now and came to my house to help prepare the banquet. I asked him to cook a meal for you."
"I'm tired." Zhang Laifeng said.
"No, no, Chef Shen likes cooking very much. He agreed as soon as I told him." Shen Ruohan said with a smile.
"When the banquet is over, you should give more money to others. After all, they have helped." Zhang Laifeng reminded his two daughters.
"Mom, we know that we will definitely not treat them badly." Shen Ruohan said.
Zhang Laifeng nodded.
