The wedding ceremony is proceeding in an orderly manner.
Today's weddings are not as noisy as they were a few decades ago. The leader speaks, family representatives speak, friends come up to say a few words, eat, toast, and it's basically over.
There were many leaders attending the wedding. Mr. Huang was the highest-ranking one, and Secretary Wen represented Minister He, who was also a heavyweight guest. There were also representatives from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, the Agricultural University, the Municipal Agriculture Bureau, the Foreign Trade Bureau and the Commerce Bureau.
Attend.
Deputy Director Tang from the Municipal Public Security Bureau also came to attend the wedding. He has two identities, one is a long-term customer of the Tianhai Meat Factory, and the other is Tang Tian’s father.
Even more people came from various departments in the district. Not to mention the commune, almost all leaders came to the scene.
In addition, some units attending the wedding were long-term customers of Tianhai Meat Factory or "Zhuang Decoration Life", and they also sent representatives to attend.
You know, there were not many people who held a big banquet in 1982. Nowadays, leaders are short of oil and water in their stomachs. This is not the era in the future when most leaders will suffer from fatty liver disease.
Today's banquet is very sumptuous. There are eight cold dishes and twelve hot dishes, two main dishes, two desserts, one soup and one fruit plate. A total of twenty-six dishes.
Of the eight cold dishes, half were cold meats. Among the twelve hot dishes, there were eight hard dishes. Even after the Friendship Hotel gave a huge discount, the cost per table for this banquet was more than one hundred yuan.
.
You bring your own cigarettes, wine and drinks, most of which are from Friendship Store.
Such a high standard made the guests feel full and satisfied.
In addition to the main table and the relatives table, there are four tables used to arrange representatives of various units participating in the wedding.
Because the two newlyweds have a close relationship, most of the guests are mutual friends of both parties. Even the villagers of Qianjiachuan Village basically know the employees of Shiwei Tianxia's companies.
Therefore, the remaining tables are basically mixed. Huang Feifei arranges a person to mediate the atmosphere at each table, which is enough.
There are several tables furthest away from the main table, where the staff and drivers are located.
The on-site shooting work has been completed. Zhang Yimou and Gu Changwei temporarily stored the cameras at the front desk of the hotel and came in to prepare for dinner.
"Uncle Zhang, Uncle Gu, this way, this way." As soon as they entered the banquet hall, they heard someone shouting.
Looking up and looking around, it turned out to be Sun Dahai waving to them.
Sun Dahai led his younger brothers and sisters to sit at the table just after entering the door, eating happily. There were a few empty seats next to him.
The two came over. Sun Dahai pointed to the empty seat next to him and said to them: "Uncles, you are done. You have worked hard all morning. Come sit down and have some food. Today's food is quite good."
"Dahai, why don't you go to the front table to eat?" Gu Changwei asked Sun Dahai while getting the tableware.
"Today is a wedding event. The adults want to drink, but our children are not in front, causing trouble for them. It's the same with eating here."
"Uncle, please try these ribs. They come from my pig farm. They are delicious."
Sun Yuanyuan used the public chopsticks to pick up the ribs and placed them on Zhang and Gu's plates respectively.
"Your pig farm?" Both of them looked confused.
"Uncle Xiao Hu, feel free to eat whatever you want. You see, Master Ye won't be polite." Sun Dahai was persuading his uncle's guard, Xiao Hu, to eat freely.
"Haha, I've been to your house for dinner so many times, who's so polite? Comrade Xiao Hu, you can eat as much as you want, because the young man is hungry."
Sun Dahai turned around and explained to Zhang and Gu: "My family has some overseas connections and invested in a pig farm nearby. Most of the ribs and elbows used in the Friendship Hotel are provided by the pig farm."
Zhang Yimou took a bite of the pork ribs and said: "It tastes good, and the meat is very chewy. You said that the ribs and elbows here are from your family, and the meat for cooking is not? Is there anything special about it?"
"I know, I know." Sun Dahe rushed to say: "Brother said that bad meat should be sold to foreigners to make money, and good meat should be kept for himself."
"That's not right. My brother said that we can keep what we like to eat and eat what we don't like, and sell it to foreigners to make money." Sun Yuanyuan corrected her brother's mistake and looked very proud.
The two of them were a little confused, not knowing what the two novels meant.
Sun Dahai organized his words in his mind, and then said to them: "It's like this, our pig farm raises pigs of better quality, and the canned luncheon meat it makes has signed an export contract with foreign countries.
exit.
Not every part of the pig is suitable for luncheon meat, so our pigs are divided according to parts. Offal and bone parts, as well as pork neck, breast, tenderloin and belly, these are what our Chinese love more
For food, we sell it to long-term ordering units.
And the meat from parts that people don’t like, like pig shoulders, backs, and buttocks, we make canned luncheon meat and export it to foreigners.”
Zhang and Gu looked at each other, and Zhang Yimou asked in a low voice: "Can this be done?"
"Of course, we are very conscientious and put the hind leg meat into cans. Overseas, they produce canned lunch meat, and they usually only use shoulder meat and the minced meat produced during cutting, which is far worse than ours.
” Sun Dahai feels that he can be regarded as the conscience of the industry.
Sun Dahai saw that they didn't understand much, so he stopped talking and just helped them prepare dishes.
After a while, the two newlyweds came to the table and toasted to everyone to thank them.
Sun Dahai quickly ran to the front and found Wu Dawei, who was hanging his camera and taking pictures everywhere, and asked him to come over and take photos for everyone.
No one took it seriously. The four newcomers stood in the middle, the third child was in front, and Zhang and Gu stood on the left and right.
"Pa", a memorable photo was taken. But at this time, no one except Sun Dahai understood the value of this photo in the future.
The wedding is over.
Sun Dahai and his family returned home together, and they were really a little uncomfortable without Cao Yue, who was carefree and making a fuss.
Chef Cao and his wife went back to their room to rest. The loss in their hearts could only be healed by time.
Everyone else also went to rest, leaving only three brothers and sisters, Sun Weiguo, and Sun Dahai in the living room.
Sun Weihong helped her two brothers make tea, then sat aside and listened quietly.
"My family is doing well now, and several companies are developing very well. Our unit has been reorganized and China Construction Corporation has been established, which will be announced next week.
The company gave me several job options. I thought about it carefully for a long time, consulted Mr. Huang, and finally decided to stay at China Construction Corporation and do technical management work in safety production instead of serving as a branch leader.
You are developing in the army, and our family now has a business, so I need to avoid suspicion. This is what Mr. Huang wants to say to me."
Sun Weimin said: "Brother, is your sacrifice too great in this case?"
"Not really. You know, since I was a child, I have always liked learning and doing research. But you prefer to move forward bravely and forge ahead. We two brothers can be considered to be following their own interests and pursuing their own strengths.
In the future, when I have time and energy, I can also do something to help my family's business. You can work peacefully in the army. You don't have to think too much about money matters, including Dahe's future study and work."
"Wei Hong, you should also be more careful about your own affairs. Mom has told me about it several times." Sun Weiguo said to his sister.
"Sister, there are many good young men in our army. Your sister-in-law also said that she would introduce you to a partner from the military hospital. What do you think, do you want to consider it?" Sun Weimin also joked about his sister.
"Brother, my matter, I...I should be able to solve it." Sun Weihong blushed.
