Not only because of the Chinese New Year, but also because the second son of the Ma family, who had been away from home for many years, came back.
For a long time, the old people in the village thought that he was dead, but they did not expect that he would suddenly come back.
Moreover, he is still worth tens of millions and returns home in fine clothes.
Although the two elders of the Ma family have not arrived yet, news has spread from the Ma family that they are going to invite the entire village to dinner. Naturally, everyone is extremely happy about this kind of thing.
So early in the morning, many people came to help, and several large pots that were only used during weddings and weddings in the village were set up early, and now the aroma of cooking meat began to waft.
Ma Junling put his hands behind his back, his face full of pride.
Although his father was gone, the sudden appearance of his second uncle made him hold his head high in the village.
He has little memory of his second uncle, but the benefits this second uncle can bring are too many.
As someone said, my second uncle is so rich, why doesn't he give you a hundred and eighty thousand? In that case, he won't have to worry about anything in the future.
"Old Ma, from now on, you will be the richest man in our village. Tsk tsk, whenever you don't have enough money, you have to support me."
A neighbor who had a good relationship with Ma Junling said to Ma Junling with a smile.
Regarding this kind of rhetoric, Ma Junling waved his hand generously and said: "Looking at what you said, I have money, don't you also have money?"
"If you have anything to say, please speak."
After hearing this, the neighbors all laughed.
Just when Ma Junling was enjoying this rare compliment, someone came over and said to Ma Junling: "Old Ma, I heard that your second uncle is going to Dalin Temple to offer incense on the first day of the new year?"
"Yes, when my second uncle left that year, he went to Dalin Temple. I won't be back now. It's the Chinese New Year again, so I wanted to go and pay incense."
"Is this what the old man thinks too?"
The person who was talking to Ma Junling suddenly said in a low voice: "I originally thought it was a rumor, but I didn't expect it to be true."
"Your second uncle stole the top spot of the Shen family."
Ma Junling said nonchalantly: "Isn't it normal for my second uncle to come back once in so many years and want to burn a stick of incense?"
"As for the first fragrance, maybe someone took the initiative to let it go?"
Seeing Ma Junling's appearance, the man said kindly: "Old Ma, I heard that this incense was ordered by Shen Xing's family in Shenjia Village and planned to be burned by Shen Lin."
"If you grab it now, how will the Shen family view our village?"
Speaking of this, the man said: "There are many people in our village who go to work at MiKe Electronics' factory in Dongzhou!"
Ma Junling was stunned for a moment, of course he knew Shen Lin.
The reputation of MiKe Electronics is well known to him.
He really didn't expect that his second uncle would steal someone else's first prize.
But this kind of thing is not something he can decide!
After all, this was his second uncle's business, and he couldn't be his second uncle's boss.
After hesitating for a moment, he said in a deep voice: "Oh, I'll tell my second uncle about this later, hahaha."
"Tell him to go back and apologize to the Shen family or something?"
Hearing these words without much sincerity, the neighbor stopped talking. After all, this kind of thing didn't have much to do with him.
As his neighbor left, Ma Junling was still a little worried, but in the end he didn't take it to heart.
In the past, he could not afford to offend the Shen family, but it was different now.
My second uncle wanted to give him some money no matter what, for the sake of his departed father.
And what came out from the cracks of the second uncle's fingernails was enough for his family to eat and drink.
Taking a look at the new watch on his hand, Ma Junling felt emotional in his heart. This watch from outside is just good, and it weighs heavily on his hand.
My second uncle is not so generous in his actions.
He walked slowly to the place where the meat was stewed, and suddenly found that the old Liu Tou who was responsible for cooking the banquet in the village was not there.
"Where's Brother Liu?" he asked casually to a neighbor.
The neighbor who was helping said: "Old Liu asked his son to be sent away, saying there was something going on at home."
Ma Junling didn't care about this, after all, who didn't have something to do at home?
But what Ma Junling didn't expect was that half an hour later, his brother in charge of cooking came to him and said: "Brother, Old Liu Tou won't come to cook anymore."
"What's wrong? Do you want money? Tell Lao Liutou, if you want money, give me money."
"The eye sockets are really a bit shallow. For this kind of thing, you still need money."
"Our second uncle is here, why can't we praise him as a cook and give him some benefits? At this time, he is still holding us hostage."
My brother shook his head and said, "Brother, that's not what happened. I went to Old Liu's house to find him. Old Liu told me that his daughter-in-law was not allowed to come."
"What's wrong?" Ma Junling asked in surprise.
"Old Liu Tou's daughter-in-law works in the Mihu Electrical Appliances Store. I don't know how I heard that our second uncle stole the top spot from the Shen family. I'm afraid that the Shen family will find out if Old Liu Tou cooks here."
"According to their original words, they don't want to lose the job they got so easily because of this."
Ma Junling was really speechless at this time.
According to his feeling, the Shen family would not vent their anger on others, but...but the concerns of the old Liu family seemed to be justified.
If this kind of thing happens to me, it seems that I should also...
"Without him, Old Liu Tou, we won't have dinner. Let's go and tell Brother Sun that he will be the chef this time and let him cook well."
The brother smiled bitterly and said: "Brother, if Brother Sun can come, I can still come to trouble you!"
"The second son of Brother Sun's family is the driver of Mihu Transportation Team. He called Brother Sun away before Old Liu Tou and his daughter-in-law."
"When I came to invite him, his second son said that our family is too powerful and they can't afford it, so we should not trouble their family."
"Listen to what they say, are they angry?"
Ma Junling was also anxious at this time. He couldn't find a chef to cook. What should he do about inviting the whole village to dinner?
He quickly came to the place where the pot was set up and saw that the meat was still simmering, but there seemed to be a lot less people helping.
"Where are the people?" Ma Junling asked a neighbor who was smoking.
"Brother Junling, they all left, saying there was something going on at home, but I took a look and found that those who left were all family members or relatives who work at MiKe Electronics."
"Hey, what do you mean these people are so worried about? I don't think Director Shen would care about this kind of thing. It's good for them. Director Shen hasn't said anything yet, and they all left very quickly."
"Especially a few old ladies, they really have long hair and short knowledge, so they just come here to pick people up."
At this time, Ma Junling no longer wanted to listen to his neighbor's nonsense. He hurriedly said: "Go to the neighboring village and invite Brother Lin from their village over and ask him to help cook."
"Otherwise we won't be able to eat this meal."
"Also, call my cousin and ask him to bring a few people to help."
