Braised elbows, roe deer legs in sauce, stewed goose, pork stewed with vermicelli, big bones stewed with sauerkraut, stir-fried cabbage with fungus, dried tofu, and stewed fish with soy sauce.
Including the four dishes served before, there are twelve dishes, which is definitely the highest standard for banquets these days.
The four passers-by walked around the room, and the table was filled with dishes, which dazzled the Ma family.
"Eat, little brother." Zhao Jun hadn't even taken a bite yet, so he gave Ma Yang a lot of meat.
For his brother-in-law, Zhao Jun should take care of him when he should take care of him, and he should care for his brother-in-law when he should take care of him.
At this time, Zhao Youcai also asked the guests to use their chopsticks, and everyone ate and drank, sometimes chatting and sometimes laughing.
In the west room, Wang Meilan led a group of women and it was also very lively. There was wine in the east room, and so did they.
Liquor, beer, and soda were all on the table. Wang Meilan invited everyone to eat and drink. She then put chicken legs in Liu Tiezui's bowl and said with a smile: "Sister, please eat more!"
Liu Tiezui was nibbling on braised pork ribs, and her bowl was almost filled by Wang Meilan. At this time, listening to Wang Meilan's words, Liu Tiezui couldn't speak, so she could only nod her head.
After chewing the meat on the bones, Liu Tiezui threw the bones aside, took out a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped the oil around his mouth, raised his hand with chopsticks to point to the dishes on the table, and said to Wang Meilan: "Sister-in-law, I
This is the first time I’ve had such a hard meal.”
"Hahaha..." This sentence made Wang Meilan happy. She laughed, patted Liu Tiezui's arm and said, "Sister, you think the food is delicious, you can eat more!"
With that said, Wang Meilan picked up the chopsticks again and gave Liu Tiezui a piece of braised pork.
The Zhao family's two houses were very lively, and a group of people gathered together to eat and drink in the Li family's house next door.
Two Kang tables are placed together on the Kang. Li Dayong, Li Baoyu, Li Ruhai, Zhang Yuanmin, Lin Xiangshun, Xie Zhong and Xie Chen are sitting on the Kang to eat.
The rest of the women and children stood around, and they all had the same dishes that were available next door.
And compared with the east courtyard, the people eating in their room are all familiar, so they feel more comfortable.
"Baoyu!" Lin Xiangshun smiled at Li Baoyu and said, "Next month, we have to drink your wine!"
On the second weekend of next month, the Li family and the Liu family will have a ceremony, and then these people will have to help Li Baoyu with work.
Li Baoyu smiled when he heard this, and he had some expectations in his heart.
After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.
In the east room of the Zhao family, Zhao Youcai told everyone at the dinner table to continue eating and drinking, while he stood up with a wine glass, waved his hand at Zhao Jun and said: "Son, let's go, follow me to that room!"
After saying this, Zhao Youcai added: "We have to thank the matchmaker!"
Zhao Jun agreed with a smile, stood up with his wine glass, and followed Zhao Youcai out.
Drinking means drinking to be happy.
When they were in the east room, a group of men were shouting, talking and laughing. At this time, the women in the west room were also happy. Northeastern women can drink some, including liquor, and beer is no problem.
.
A person who is quiet and dull when not drinking may become a different person after drinking.
In the west room, the women were also chatting, laughing and noisy.
When Zhao Youcai and Zhao Jun came over one after another, they heard Ma Ling and her aunt Wang Cuilan say: "How old was I at that time?"
As she spoke, she pointed at Wang Meilan and said, "Meilan has just given birth. My mother and I carried half a basket of eggs to breastfeed the second aunt..."
The second aunt Wang Cuilan talks about is Wang Meilan's mother. And when she talks about breastfeeding, she means holding something to see the pregnant woman.
At that time, the living conditions were not good. Anyone who came to see the pregnant women would bring some delicious food so that the pregnant women could have milk to feed their children, so it was called lactation.
But those are ordinary people, and Lao Wang’s family still uses them to produce breast milk?
Sure enough, Wang Cuilan raised her voice and gestured with her hands and said: "That guy, let's go to my second uncle's house. As soon as we enter the house, you will see that the two kang harps are covered with fruits of all kinds.
That's right! When my second aunt saw us there, she offered me some fruit to eat, but I didn't even recognize it."
Speaking of this, Wang Cuilan patted Wang Meilan across Wang Cuihua, raised her head and asked: "Meilan, what is the name of that fruit?"
"How could she know?" Before Wang Meilan could answer, Wang Cuihua jumped in and said, "Her baby is still drinking milk!"
"Hahaha……"
The women laughed, and Wang Meilan was also happy.
Wang Cuilan didn't drink too much at this time, but she must have been energetic. She pinched her thumb and index finger, made a circle as big as a pigeon egg, and said to Wang Meilan: "It's just this big, red, and numb on the outside."
It’s the skin, it needs to be peeled off. After peeling off the skin, the inside is white, very translucent, and it’s so sweet!”
"Hawthorn?" Wang Cuiyu asked from the side: "Sister, is it hawthorn?"
"Peel the skin off your hawthorn?" Wang Cuilan replied, and everyone in the room was confused. It's so big and round, and the outer skin is still numb. What could it be?
At this time, Wang Meilan laughed and said: "Lychee."
"Hey, that's right!" Wang Cuilan clapped her hands and said, "Sister, if you didn't tell me, I wouldn't be able to remember your name for so many years!"
At this time, Zhao Jun and Zhao Youcai had just walked to the door. Hearing Wang Meilan's words, Zhao Jun was startled. Thinking about Zhao Jun, he had never seen lychees in his life. He had seen them in his previous life, and that was a thousand years later.
"Are you eating?" Zhao Youcai entered the room with a wine glass and greeted him with a smile.
"Ouch!" Wang Cuilan turned around, looked at Zhao Youcai, and said, "Youcai is here!"
"Sister!" Zhao Youcai smiled at Wang Cuilan and said, "I'm thinking about it and propose a toast to the matchmaker!"
When Zhao Youcai came in, Liu Tiezui threw the half-bitten piece of braised pork into the rice, put down his chopsticks, wiped his hands with a small handkerchief, and then got up.
Seeing this scene, Zhao Youcai hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop him and said: "Hey, sister, sit down and sit still!"
Wang Meilan, who was beside Liu Tiezui, also held him down. Zhao Jun took the opportunity to step forward and poured two qian worth of wine into the wine glass in front of Liu Tiezui.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! This Liu Tiezui can drink two taels, but she is weak and Zhao Jun does not dare to pour her too much at one time.
But when Liu Tiezui was pouring wine, Zhao Jun saw a pile of bones piled next to Liu Tiezui's bowl and chopsticks. The bones were almost taller than the bowl. It seemed that she had eaten a lot.
Zhao Jun's heart skipped a beat. It was not that he thought Liu Tiezui ate too much, but that Liu Tiezui's body was not as strong as the old lady's. Even the old man did not dare to eat like this, let alone her.
Zhao Jun remembered that it was a previous life, when Liu Tiezui was playing matchmaking with someone, and that day the other family had to eat pig meat as a gift. Liu Tiezui ate too much, so he stayed on the kang for a week.
But Zhao Jun couldn't say anything if he asked people to eat less. He could only politely pour wine for Liu Tiezui and nod to Liu Tiezui with a smile.
Liu Tiezui looked at Zhao Jun, raised his hand and pushed him in his direction, then looked at the three Wang sisters and said, "This child is the best in our forest farm, isn't he?"
The mother-in-law looked at her son-in-law, and the more she looked at him, the happier she became. Not to mention such a good son-in-law, Wang Cuihua was smiling so much that she couldn't even open her mouth from ear to ear.
"Then what are you talking about?" The person who answered the question turned out to be Ma Ling's aunt. She frowned but smiled and gestured: "It's Zhou Chengguo who was in charge of my house two times ago. He is very coaxing. I have seen him before.
His uncle just said hello and came over."
At this point, her voice suddenly became louder and she said, "Since I heard that our daughter is engaged to Zhao Jun, it will be different when we see her again!"
"Oh! That man is like that. Most people don't pay attention to him." Wang Cuilan echoed and began to tell the story of Zhao Jun's benevolence and justice when he went to their village to avenge Hu Guangmin.
Listening to the relatives on the other side of the family praising her son, Zhao Youcai, Wang Meilan felt extremely proud. Zhao Youcai was not in a hurry to toast the matchmaker, and stood aside with a smile, holding a wine glass and listening.
Maybe it was because she had been drinking just now, or maybe she was a little excited today. Ma Ling's face turned red, her big eyes opened, and she glanced at Zhao Jun secretly.
This was her future husband. Zhao Jun was doing well, and she felt a sense of pride from the bottom of her heart.
This meal will last until dark!
The group of women in the west room dispersed early, but the group of men in the east room drank until five o'clock.
The more wine you drink, the stickier it becomes, especially at four o'clock, the Li family next door serves four more dishes to go with the wine, namely shredded potatoes, sugar-mixed rock sugar radish, fried peanuts, and fried shrimp crackers.
By the time they drank until five o'clock, the ten people in the east room, excluding Zhao Jun and Ma Yang, the eight drinkers had consumed exactly twelve bottles of Xifeng.
One bottle weighs a pound, and the eight of them drank twelve bottles. By this time, only Zhou Jianjun could still stand up.
But Zhou Jianjun also drank too much, his tongue was hard, and he was gesticulating and whining in circles.
At this time, Wang Cuihua couldn't stand it anymore, so she called her sisters, sister-in-law, and daughter-in-law, and wanted to give those men a break and go home.
But the man drank too much, and one by one he broke his horse and flew away. The five-horse man with a spear could no longer stand still, and one by one fell straight down.
Seeing this, Wang Meilan hurriedly went out to say hello, and a group of people from the Li family next door came over.
Li Dayong, Li Baoyu, Zhang Yuanmin, Lin Xiangshun, Xie Zhong, and Jie Chen helped carry the drunken people to Ma's house. Because these people could not stand and were not very obedient, Jie Chen did not dare to drive them.
Moreover, none of these people can leave today and can only live in Ma's house. If Ma Dafu's house can't be accommodated, they will live in Ma Sheng's house.
Li Dayong and the others gave it away, and Jin Xiaomei, Yang Yufeng, and Xie Sun came over to help Zhao Chun pack his things. They no longer cleaned the dishes and chopsticks at Zhao's house, but packed all the big basins and went to Li's house.
At this time, Wang Meilan was also a little drunk, but her mind was clear, but she was a little excited.
Even more excited than her was Zhao Youcai. Although his little eyes could not open and his mouth was a little crooked when he spoke, Zhao Youcai talked to Wang Meilan with gestures and vernacular, telling how much hard work and sweat he had endured for this family.
It happened that Zhao Jun came back from outside, and as soon as he entered the house, he heard his father wailing.
Seeing Zhao Jun coming in, Zhao Chun, who was sweeping the floor, asked: "Brother, have you sent it back to our uncle?"
Li Dayong and others went to see off the Ma family, while Zhao Jun went to see off Wang Qiang.
"Sent him back," Zhao Jun said, "I vomited after walking halfway."
After saying that, Zhao Jun pointed to the back room and asked Zhao Chun, "What are our dads so noisy about?"
"Haha." Zhao Chun was happy when he heard this, and said with a smile: "He said that he worked hard to save a lot of money, and he gave it to you to become a wife."
Zhao Jun twitched the corner of his mouth, and then Jin Xiaomei came over with a kettle, asking Zhao Jun to make another pot of tea for Zhao Youcai and Zhou Jianjun.
Everyone here thinks that tea can relieve hangovers, but when Zhao Jun went to get the tea, Li Ruhai helped Zhou Jianjun back.
Zhou Jianjun wanted to go to the toilet just now, but he drank so much that he would be in danger even if someone accompanied him to the latrine. Therefore, Li Ruhai directly helped him to the back of the room.
"Brother!" Although Zhou Jianjun drank too much, he could still recognize Zhao Jun even if he squinted his eyes. He jumped directly on Zhao Jun, patted Zhao Jun's shoulders with both hands, and said: "You... are my biological brother, and from now on, brother-in-law...
...Brother-in-law is getting better, just look at what I will do to you!"
Although he drank too much, Zhao Jun believed him even if he was drunk. He hugged Zhou Jianjun with a smile, patted Zhou Jianjun on the back, and said, "Yeah, brother-in-law."
Zhao Chun took a look at his man and his brother, and saw that they had a good relationship, Zhao Chun felt happy.
But seeing Zhou Jianjun gesticulating and poking Zhao Jun's face with his fingers, Zhao Chun stretched out his hand and patted Zhou Jianjun on the back and said, "If you can't do it, go to bed quickly!"
The couple will definitely not leave today, and as for tomorrow, Zhao Chun doesn't really want to leave either.
"Why should you sleep?" Zhou Jianjun threw his arm back and muttered: "I was chatting with my brother!"
"Haha..." Zhao Jun smiled and said to Zhao Chun: "Sister, tonight I will sleep with my brother-in-law and my father in the east room. After that, you can take the children and sleep in the west room with my mother and two younger sisters."
"Is that possible?" Zhao Chun frowned and said, "They are not allowed to vomit?"
"It's okay. I vomited. I'll clean it up." After Zhao Jun said that, he helped Zhou Jianjun to the east room. At this time, Zhao Youcai was boasting to Wang Meilan about how much money he had saved across the river. Zhao Jun thought about the relationship between father and son and wanted to save him.
Bundle.
Needless to say, Zhao Jun showed up just in time. As soon as he saw him, Zhao Youcai immediately gave up trying to fight Wang Meilan. When he turned to Zhao Jun, he raised his finger and said, "Damn it!"
Zhao Jun: "..."
"Come here!" The moment Zhao Youcai closed his eyes, he pointed at Zhao Jun's hand and lifted it up.
Needless to say, Zhao Youcai's wine is pretty good. Being crazy about drinking is also a literary lunatic, not a martial arts lunatic.
Zhao Jun helped Zhou Jianjun to the kang, then sat sideways on the edge of the kang, looking at Zhao Youcai with a smile.
"Son!" Suddenly, Zhao Youcai became emotional.
He raised his hand to gesture to Zhao Jun and said, "What did you do today? Dad is very happy."
Having said this, Zhao Youcai lowered his head and shook it.
Zhao Jun smiled when he heard this, and Wang Meilan and Zhao Chun next to him also laughed. At this time, a little head poked out of the door, his eyes rolling around, it was Li Ruhai.
"Your dad, your mom..." Zhao Youcai pointed at Zhao Jun and continued to speak, but when he said it again it was like swearing, but everyone knew that he drank too much, and no one could do the same to him.
Just listen to Zhao Youcai continue: "I have raised you up so well, so I have fulfilled my filial piety to you!"
"Ah?" Zhao Jun was startled and almost jumped from the edge of the kang.
"Pah!" Wang Meilan raised her hand and slapped Zhao Youcai, saying, "That's called trying your best!"
