The Story of Qingfeng Village

Chapter 124 Practice and Reception
Wang Chunsheng: "Liu Li, you go and see if Director Wang and the two cadres have come up, and if they don't come up, go and shout."

"okay."

Liu Li agreed and ran to see it.

Wang Chunsheng went to the office next door and called some other teachers to walk to Yao Ma's house together.

After a while, Wang Jinfa came up with Chen Jianlin and Ding Bingkun.

He still had two bottles of wine in his hand.

At noon, Liu Jianguo went back to his father-in-law's house, so they had a simple meal.

Principal Wang said he would welcome them at night, so Wang Jinfa bought two bottles of wine at the canteen and brought them.

Yaoba rubbed his hands and invited them into the house.

His house has never been so lively.

When everyone entered the main room, the originally quite spacious main room became a bit narrow.

Wang Jinfa: "Brother Chunsheng, you provide the food ingredients and I supply the wine, brother, am I enough?"

Principal Wang: "It's interesting enough, and with the two bottles I brought from home, it's almost done tonight."

Wang Jinfa: "If it's not enough, go down and get it."

Principal Wang: The place I borrowed from Yaoba today is firstly for the retired old teachers to practice, and secondly for the newcomers. Everyone can sit wherever they want...

Wang Jinfa: "Dad Yao, your table is a bit small, should you place two tables..."

The small square table that the rural people usually eat at home can seat up to eight people and it is too crowded. Today it is full of 14 people, and it must not be able to sit.

Dad Yao: "Wait a minute, I'll get you a big one...Liu Li, come and help Grandpa Yao lift a table..."

Liu Li followed him to the back room and brought out a large round table and put it on top of the square table.

The small square table instantly turned into a large round table.

Dad Yao: "How is it? It's okay now, it's a seat for twelve people."

"Hey, Dad Yao, when did you get a table?"

Dad Yao: "Last month, the Yao family restaurant in the village was redecorated, and I was invited to do carpentry work. They came out of the restaurant with two private rooms, and there was such a big round table inside, and the top table could be turned around. Well, I bought two sets from the city, so I wondered if I could make it. I first made a big round table top, and I was going to make a small one to rotate on it. No, the village committee asked me to The most other work is not finished yet, let’s use it today.”

Wang Jinfa: "Okay, Dad Yao, make me one if you have time, so you don't have to worry about it when there are many people."

Principal Wang: "Okay, what do you do and where do you put it? Do you put it in the village committee? It's not like opening a restaurant. With such a big table, people will not say that your village cadres eat big fish and meat every day. The tables are all placed No more..."

Wang Jinfa died suddenly.

"Well, I was thinking too much."

Dad Yao: "Then... then... I shouldn't be making this desk..."

Look at this, then that, as if you made a mistake.

Liu Jianguo: "It's okay, Dad Yao, you can do it. It's for practicing craftsmanship. When you get rich, every household will change to such a big table..."

Wang Jinfa: "I love to hear that. After getting rid of poverty and becoming rich, every family gathers around a big round table during the holidays, and the table is full of big fish and meat... Dad Yao, I'm afraid your big round table is rushing for it..."

Dad Yao laughed again.

"That's good..."

Aunt Li came out with a spatula and took a look, "Is everything here? Dinner is ready."

Principal Wang: "Auntie, why isn't Uncle Li here?"

Aunt Li: "I drank too much at noon, and I fell asleep at home with Uncle Zhu. I cooked porridge in the rice cooker, and they woke up to eat. Don't worry about them... Sit down, I'm going to serve, Liu Li, Come help grandma."

"Okay..."

Everyone sits down as guest and host.

The dishes are served one by one.

Fried peanuts with wine, fried small fish, cold pork head meat, served with three shreds, and a plate of garlic fried shrimp.

In the afternoon, Wang Jinfa arranged for someone to net a few catties of fish and dried shrimps and bring them up.

Aunt Li said to Zhu Xia, "Daughter, you go and sit until you eat, and leave the rest to me and Yaoma."

Today's main course is fish,

A large pot of braised fish is ready, just waiting for the pot to be served.

Zhu Xia filled the fish with two basins, and took one out: "Okay, Mama Li, Aunt Li, I don't care about the rest, you eat too, don't starve."

Aunt Li: "I can't be hungry. How can there be a Huotou army who is hungry."

Zhu Xia put the fish in the middle of the table, "Come on, the fish is here, let's eat it openly, there is still a pot..."

Liu Jianguo: "Student Zhu Xia, you have worked hard today, come on, come and sit down."

Zhu Xia was sitting next to Liu Jianguo.

"Squad leader, I heard from my classmates that your cooking skills are also good, I want to taste your cooking skills in the future..."

Liu Jianguo: "Okay. I'll do it next time, everyone."

Wang Jinfa: "Then we are lucky again. Thank you Jianguo in advance. If you need anything, say hello to Jinfeng as soon as possible...to get ready."

Principal Wang: "You're still in good spirits. You haven't finished eating today, so you're thinking about the next meal."

"Oh, brother Chunsheng, food is the most important thing for people, of course I want to eat it. Maybe you don't want to, the more toothbrush festivals there are, the better."

Principal Wang: "It's a good thing that Liu and Zhu Xia are not outsiders, so they won't laugh at you..."

Everyone laughed and looked at Chen Jianlin and Ding Bingkun, meaning they were going to laugh at them.

Chen Jianlin: "It's okay, Director Wang, Lao Ding and I can understand and won't make jokes. I used to go to rural areas often, and I know what conditions are in most rural areas... Tell the truth, who doesn't look forward to it Eating meat every day... who wouldn't want to be rich..."

Wang Jinfa: "So, we have to work harder, right? In order to eat meat and drink in the future, work harder."

Ding Bingkun: "From now on, we will all be a family, don't treat us as outsiders."

Wang Jinfa: "No, no, after drinking today's wine, we are all one family. By the way, President Wang, please say a few more words."

Wang Chunsheng stood up: "On behalf of the school, I would like to say thank you to Teacher Li Xianmu. Thank you for your hard work in teaching for decades. Let us respect you for this glass of wine..."

Everyone raised their glasses and stood up.

Old teacher Li Xianmu: "Oh, I don't dare to do it, I don't dare to do it, I just did what I was supposed to do."

Principal Wang: "You deserve it all the time. Let me respect you, and I will do it first."

Everyone raised their glasses to respect him, and the old teacher tremblingly held up the wine glass and drank it.

Principal Wang filled him up again.

"Ms. Li, I haven't made it until I retire, and I stayed here for a few months. It's been a hard few months. I'll toast you again."

The two clinked glasses.

"For the third glass of wine, I would like to toast the three new support teachers and the two leaders of poverty alleviation. Your arrival has given us hope again. No matter whether it is the school or the affairs of the village, there will be someone to take over. All the work is going on in an orderly manner, I think our Qingfeng Village has a bright future..."

"Well said, let's drink to the future of Qingfeng Village."

"Dry."

Drank the wine in the glass.

Wang Jinfa: "It's a pity that Secretary Xiao is not here today..."

Liu Jianguo: "Yes, we just missed it."

Zhu Xia: "Secretary Xiao will come back and bring us more good news..."

Whether they know it or not, they all have some expectations for Xiao Guangwei.

"Come, eat the vegetables, eat the vegetables, and eat the fish while it's hot."

"Move the chopsticks, move the chopsticks..."
