At this time, the big leaders had finished talking about business and were sitting in the living room, but there was a layer of lingering sadness on their faces.
The leader's wife and other female relatives were busy in the kitchen.
Today is just an engagement banquet. Although there are many people here, there are not many people who can serve the table. Most of the people wandering around the villa are the elder brothers who grew up with Yi Qiushui in the courtyard. Although they usually come here,
They may have noble status outside, but here they don't even have the qualifications to speak, let alone serve at the table.
The senior leader also has a son and a daughter. Apart from a few words when they first met, they were also sent away later.
After a while, the meal was ready.
There are two tables for meals, one for men and one for women.
There were not too many words before the meal. The leader stood up and said a few words of instructions to them, and then announced that the meal was open.
Yang Jun was not happy at all eating with the seniors. He couldn't let go of his hands and feet, and as a junior, he had to hold them. They crawled out of the sea of blood, and they had been in high positions for a long time. The oppressive aura on them weighed down the people.
Out of breath.
This is a group of old monsters with bad tempers and strict rules. They must drink in pairs and drink cleanly, otherwise they will look down upon them.
After Yang Jun drank several drinks, he couldn't stand it anymore, so he could only turn on the space mode and toast to the seniors frequently. Good things come in pairs. It must be two glasses each time. If you don't drink, he will keep holding it until you do.
until clean.
In fact, from the very beginning, Yang Jun knew that these seniors had plans to test his character. As the saying goes: When you are drunk, you tell the truth. When a person is drunk, you can best see his character.
In rural areas, when the son-in-law comes to visit for the first time, the father-in-law has to find a few well-respected and heavy drinkers to drink with him. After getting the son-in-law drunk, they will see if he has lost his moral character after drinking and whether he talks nonsense.
This is the time when character is most tested. Many sons-in-law who come here for the first time simply don’t dare to drink more, but they have to drink, so they state at the beginning that they are not good at drinking, and then procrastinate when drinking. That’s it.
It was postponed until the end of the party.
At the beginning, the old-timers did have the purpose of testing him. They all crawled out of the mountains of corpses and seas of blood. They drank and fought at the same time. Their drinking capacity was unparalleled. I thought that if the veterans took action, they would be defeated in just one round.
No one expected that Yang Jun could be put there. Even after two rounds, his expression remained unchanged, his face was not red, and he was not angry, just like a normal person.
The seniors looked at each other and winked at each other, but no one dared to speak out again.
This kid drinks like he drinks water. No, he doesn’t drink water like he does.
You can't risk your life just because you want to test someone else's character, right?
"After three rounds of wine, let's try the five flavors."
Uncle Qian couldn't hold it anymore at first, so he slapped the wine glass on the table and asked everyone to start eating.
Seeing that the old man had given up, Yang Jun knew that his goal was achieved, so he put down his glass and stopped toasting.
"Eat vegetables, eat vegetables."
Several other seniors couldn't bear it for a long time and were worried that they couldn't find an excuse. At this time, seeing that Lao Qian was taking the lead in drinking, they all agreed.
So everyone immersed themselves in the meal and no one mentioned drinking again.
In the final analysis, the engagement banquet is just a meal where the two families of the man and woman gather together to have a meal together. The two families gather around the table to make some common sense and eat and drink for more than an hour before it ends.
On the way back, Yang Jun saw Wang Yuying sitting in the back seat twirling her fingers and muttering something.
"I got married on the second day of the Lunar New Year, and I haven't prepared the ingredients yet. What should I do?"
Wang Yuying said with a sad face.
In the past few days before the New Year, the ingredients should have been prepared, but everyone knows that the closer it gets to the New Year, the harder it is to get the ingredients, even if you spend a lot of money to get them.
"Mom, don't worry about the ingredients. I've already asked my comrades to make reservations for me."
Yang Jun turned around and said while driving the car: "You just need to think about which guests to invite."
In fact, Yang Jun didn't ask his comrades to prepare the ingredients at all. Instead, he had a mountain of ingredients in his space that he couldn't finish. Not only were there many types of ingredients, but they were also fresher than those on the market.
"That's good, that's good. I was still worried when my mother-in-law discussed your marriage with me."
When Wang Yuying heard that Yang Jun had been prepared, she immediately felt relieved.
"The house is newly renovated, the furniture is also newly bought, cotton clothes, quilts, bedding, curtains... are all new..." Wang Yuying counted each item one by one on her fingers, for fear of leaving something behind.
Seeing this, Yang Mei also followed to check and fill in the gaps.
"I've thought about the quilts several times, and there's nothing wrong. I'm still worried about the ingredients..."
"Brother, are your comrades reliable? Meat-based ingredients are hard to come by?"
Yang Jun smiled and said: "The batch of pork produced in the steel rolling mill was obtained by my comrade-in-arms. Do you think he is reliable?"
"That's pretty... reliable." Yang Mei felt relieved immediately after hearing this.
We have obtained tens of thousands of kilograms of pork, but we still need a hundred or ten kilograms?
"Tell your comrades, don't forget the auxiliary ingredients such as onions, ginger, garlic, and cooking oil."
The black line on Yang Jun's forehead made the two women so worried that they had to remind him of even such a trivial matter.
"Can't forget, can't forget."
…
Return to the courtyard.
It's just in time for the hospital's general meeting.
The content of the conference was to deal with the fight between Bang Gang and Yang Yu.
These two troublesome people got into a fight for some unknown reason. Finally, Jia Zhang took Banggeng to find Yang Yu's parents, and was rushing Yang Jun to get engaged. There was no one at home, and Yang Liu couldn't make the decision, so Jia Zhang
Mrs. Zhang cried and asked the second uncle and the third uncle to hold a hospital-wide meeting, insisting that the Yang family pay 20 yuan for medical expenses.
At this moment, Bang Gang and Yang Yu were standing in front of everyone. They looked at each other with displeasure, winked and threatened each other, and both wanted to kill each other with their eyes.
Yang Yu did not suffer any loss this time, her body was clean, and there were no scratches on her face. At this moment, she was showing off her power to the stick with a victor's attitude, and the proud look in her little eyes was beyond words.
But Bangge was in a miserable state this time. The new clothes he kept for the New Year were torn into tatters, his face and neck were covered with bloody strands, and his eyes were as swollen as panda eyes.
At this moment, he was standing fearfully far away from Yang Yu, with hatred in his little eyes, and he wanted to step forward and tear Yang Yu into eight pieces.
Ms. Jia Zhang is crying with the victim's family holding the stick in their arms.
"He Yang Jun, because he is a cadre and a big man in the courtyard, allows his sister to bully our orphans and widowed mothers. Young and old men in the courtyard, you must be the boss of our Jia family."
The second uncle and the third uncle were whispering to each other and discussing how to deal with this matter.
It is common for children to fight among themselves, but now Banggeng was beaten like this, and his cotton-padded clothes were torn like tatters. They deliberately favored Yang Yu, but people with discerning eyes could see that Banggeng was the victim, and they did not dare to do it openly.
