Of course, Brother Zhou didn't know what happened to Sister Meng. After finishing his day's work, he returned to Meicun in a hurry with his buddies from the same village and his uncle from the Zhou family.
Everyone went home, washed up quickly, and then took the whole family together, old and young, to have a barbecue party at Lejia.
The handsome guys and old men who played in Lejia also went to the river to catch fish and shrimps in the morning. After noon, they moved the dried straw back to Lejia's pig and cow barn and placed it upstairs. Then they boiled water and killed pigs, chickens and ducks.

flakes.
Le Xiaoluoli and the old ladies made bread, steamed steamed buns and steamed buns at home in the morning, and baked hundreds of toasts. When killing the chickens, the old ladies were determined not to let her touch the bloody work to avoid getting dirty.

The little Loli, who was treated like a porcelain doll, was only responsible for preparing the soup for making blood tofu and ingredients for braised pork, marinating barbecue and fish soup and ingredients, while others did the errands.
Duan Shaoren and his few top students were responsible for skewering meat and skewering fish. Little Loli caught Uncle He Xiaoba kneading mud to make dough, and ordered him to wrap some chickens and rabbits in the rolled mud dough to make clay roast chicken.

Men, women, old and young came together to handle the matter properly. The big stove for cooking braised pork was placed in the backyard of the north building. After the sun went down, the charcoal was burned. Then, it was installed in a brazier and placed on the ground and on the road next to the Lejia building.
Start grilling meat and grilling fish, and there is also a stove with a pot dedicated to making deep-fried food.
The old people don't have to worry about the young people. There are men at one table and women at the other. They can barbecue by themselves and grill whatever they want.
Boss Wu and Mrs. Wu also went to Lejia after the workers got off work. When they arrived, the handsome guys had just placed the charcoal pots and were still burning charcoal.
Liu Lu and others returned home a little late from the construction site. After taking a shower, they went to Lejia with their mother-in-law who had gone home to feed the pigs, ducks and chickens. Chen Dalian also brought his two children.
The Zhou Tianqing siblings went to Lejia Gang to work as errand boys in the middle of the afternoon. Village Chief Zhou went to the village committee in the morning and brought a gift to someone who knew how to live in the afternoon to help Zhou Xialong and Cao Li Chunxiu. After he returned to the village in the middle of the afternoon
Just go to Lejia and chat with the old men.
Brother Zhou went home and took a shower, and was ordered to pick up Granny Cao and his family. He drove his brother-in-law's electric tricycle and went to the street to pick up Cao's family of four.
Men, women, old and young sit together and barbecue by themselves, grilling whatever they want.
In the evening, we mainly eat barbecue. If you feel that just eating barbecue is not enough, you can eat some bread and steamed buns together.
It was the first time for young and old men to have a family gathering-style barbecue. It was very enthusiastic and the scene was in full swing. When the meat was roasting, the smell spread far and wide, and could be smelled all over the village, even across the street, making people salivate.
Little Leshan took his younger brother and sat at the same table with Wu Shao and others. The big wolf dog followed closely behind Leshan. Therefore, Miss Leshan and little Leshan would also share a portion with him when they ate skewers.
Cao Qingyue and her younger sister shared a table with the Zhou family's siblings and Chen Dalian's two daughters.

Wait until everyone goes home.
Grandma Zhou Man, Zhou Papi and others were lagging behind. They accompanied Granny Cao and her family to Zhou Xialong's house to discuss matters with Granny Cao and her family.
In the afternoon, village chief Zhou asked a date teller to help Zhou Xialong and Li Chunxiu and their horoscopes. Because he hoped to get married before the tenth day of July, the date teller combined the horoscopes and calculated the third and seventh days to choose.
The Zhou family felt that it was too urgent to choose the third day of the lunar month to arrange the wedding, and the seventh day of the lunar month was more suitable. What they meant was that they wanted to have a formal meal on the third day of the lunar month, that is, the formal engagement, and hold the wedding ceremony on the seventh day of the lunar month.
Grandma Cao had no objection and asked the girl Chunxiu.
Ms. Li groaned: "Isn't this too fast? I'm afraid that I... won't be as good as you think... don't you investigate more?"
"Lele's vision is unmistakable. Lele said you will make a good wife, so you must be good. If one day you do something wrong, we elders and Granny Cao will discuss how to cut you and straighten you out.
"
Grandma Zhou Man said cheerfully: "You can just marry Xia Long with peace of mind. We will also keep an eye on your two girls. If they show signs of becoming crooked, ask Lele to cut them off. Lele will take action and have to kill them."
Cut it straight."
"We are in a hurry because Lele wants to drink her Uncle Zhou's wedding wine. Lele is expected to go to the capital on the 21st at the latest, so we hope you get married as soon as possible. As long as you two don't hate each other, get married first and then get to know each other slowly.
No one between a husband and wife understands each other perfectly on the first day, so it takes time to get used to each other."
Village Chief Zhou also explained the reason for urging the two to get married. If they didn't want to ask Lele to be a witness, they wouldn't be in a hurry. It doesn't matter if they wait three or two months.
Ms. Li's face burned up. She glanced at Zhou Xialong and nodded: "I'm fine. I just want to see if my mother and my eldest daughter have any objections."
"I have no objection," Cao Qingyue raised her hand in agreement: "If my mother marries to another family, I will definitely worry about whether the man will treat my mother well. If she marries Uncle Zhou, I have no objection."
Grandma Cao was filled with joy. She picked up her daughter and gave her a son-in-law. When she returns to this world a hundred years from now, her son-in-law will hold a sign and hold a flag when she goes out. What else can she say?
The woman's family has no objections. Several elders of the Zhou family happily discussed the details of the ceremony with Granny Cao. As for Zhou Xialong's opinion, well, it doesn't matter anymore. He still dares to have an opinion now and cut him off!
Several adults discussed it until nearly eleven o'clock, then Village Chief Zhou and others went home, and the Cao family of four stayed at the Zhou family again.
After the barbecue, Zhou Qiufeng, Le's father, and the handsome guys poured the embers for the barbecue onto the backyard floor under the direction of the little cotton-padded jacket, and then buried the mud eggs wrapped in chickens and rabbits into the embers.
Then, the guests went to rest, and Le's father, Zhou Qiufeng, and his wife drove their little cotton-padded jackets and jackets to bed. They guarded the brine, and put the marinated meat, chicken and duck into the brine pot at twelve o'clock in the evening.
The couple stayed up all night, braised two batches of chicken, duck and pork, and it was daybreak.

Liu Lu and others knew that Ms. Li was Brother Zhou's new partner, and they knew it tacitly. When they arrived at the construction site, they all walked together and successfully distracted others' attention. No one was curious to inquire about the gossip.
Wu Shao and others took over the work of the owner and his wife of the Le family in the morning. They cooked braised pork. Le's father Zhou Qiufeng had nothing to do, so he went to work in the fields while the morning was cool.

Repaint it and make it available for the Cao sisters to stay when they come to the Zhou family.

August 8th arrived in the blink of an eye.
On this day, many seriously ill heroes or their family members, or military and police officers, or their family members, accompanied by their families, arrived in Shishifang County, or started their journey to Province E one after another.
On that day, students from high schools and junior high schools in various cities in Province E also returned to school to make up classes.
Also in the morning of that day, Zhou Papi took Zhou Tianqing to report to the No. 3 Middle School in the county. Zhou Tianqing returned to her hometown school and went to the No. 2 Middle School. At the end of last semester, the Zhou family helped her transfer to the No. 3 Middle School.
The reason was of course the advice given by Miss Lejia. Because there was an impure Li Xiaoyan in No. 2 Middle School, she was worried that Li Xiaoyan was secretly causing trouble with the Huang family, so she asked Zhou Tianqing to transfer to another school.
Zhou Tianqing's father and Zhou Papi followed the advice and completed the transfer procedures for Zhou Tianqing after the final exam last semester. They took their children to the school to report to the school during make-up classes and go through the enrollment procedures in advance.
Wu Shao and others also packed their luggage on the same day and prepared to return to Beijing on the 9th.

Young Master Wanqi and younger brothers of the Chao family, He Xiaofifteen, He Xiaoliu, Xiao Shao and Li Shao went to Jiudao for vacation after returning to China, and also went back to stay with their parents or grandparents.
The beautiful boy's classmates Chen and Deng, because Brother Chao returned to Beijing, they also went back together.
He Xiaoba helped Lejia with the double robbery on behalf of Xiaolongbao. After playing for many days, it was natural for him to go back to work. Xuan Shaohua and Young Master Xuan Shaohua were in urgent need of manpower for the park project, so they went back to help.
Chen Zhaonian is expected to go to the university to report on the 21st, and the 13th is the second trial of the case where the two brothers were injured. They should also go to show their faces, and the Chen family will return to southern Hunan early.
Handsome Liu flew the top students back to Beijing in a helicopter. Although he wanted to stay in Plum Village for a few more days, he was not strong-willed and could not withstand the attack of sugar-coated bullets from the temptation of delicious food. The little loli gave him a box of roast chicken.
Smoked fish, he is willing to work as an errand boy
Mr. Liu, who was willing to be a food slave, drove a transport helicopter and took a detour to Han City to take the Chen family back to Yuezhou City by high-speed rail. He then flew to the capital.
