In the ordinary world, I am the son-in-law of the Sun family

Chapter 490

In the following period of time, Shao'an became extremely busy, and even Wang Manyin couldn't get free time.

It is not an easy task in this day and age to prepare a banquet of twenty-five tables.

In future generations, you can also invite rural chefs to provide one-stop service. You only need to pay the money, and leave the rest to the professional catering team.

But in this day and age, everything has to be prepared by oneself. Right now, every household is short of food and clothing. It is not easy to entertain twenty-five tables of people.

The first is grain. Shao'an took Wang Manyin to the brigade headquarters in Shuangshui Village to borrow grain. With Tian Futang as a guarantee, several hundred catties of corn were borrowed.

Then they pulled the corn to the yard of the old kiln, borrowed a donkey from the village, and ground all the corn into cornmeal. The staple food of the banquet was corn buns.

As for what to cook, Shao'an and the others discussed it, and planned to make four dishes and one soup, which was already the highest specification in their opinion.

The main course is mutton stewed vermicelli, the other two vegetarian dishes, one cold dish, and a bowl of egg drop soup. This is the scale of the banquet.

In addition, there will be cigarettes, candies, melon seeds, peanuts and pumpkin seeds on the table, as well as enough white wine, so as not to make the table look too spacious.

Shaoan had to prepare these dishes by himself. Fortunately, they had a pigeon market, such as vermicelli and mutton, which were easy to buy.

Of course, not only did I spend a lot of energy on eating, but there was also a problem of who to invite to the banquet and where to borrow tables and benches.

Sun Yuhou and Tian Futang discussed the previous problem and came up with a regulation. As for the tables, stools, bowls and chopsticks, it was actually easy to solve, just borrow them from the villagers, and all they needed were big round tables.

If Shuangshui Village couldn't afford big round tables, Guanzi Village also had a lot, Wang Manyin also borrowed a lot, and finally got together a total of fifteen big round tables.

During this period of time, I was so tired that I pedaled the tricycle with both feet to deliver these tables and benches to the yard of Shaoan Xinyao.

The Shao'an family is not idle, and everyone is doing their part for this marriage.

Even Lan Xiang was not idle, knowing that a lot of firewood would be used when getting married, so she quietly carried a hatchet on her back, and went to the mountains to look for firewood whenever she was free.

In the busyness of not touching the ground, the time finally came to the twenty-eighth day of the twelfth lunar month.

It is recorded in the almanac that on the twenty-eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, it is advisable to go out, offer sacrifices, have a happy event, conceive a child, open a business, avoid burrowing into the ground, and burn incense. It is a rare good day.

It's a pity that the weather is not beautiful, just woke up in the morning, Wang Manyin pushed open the door of the main room to see, the sky was overcast, there were snowflakes the size of goose feathers floating in the air, the cold wind was howling, like knives, it hurt people's faces.

Picking up the shovel and broom, climbed up the cave dwelling along the wooden ladder. First, he dug out the chimney, and then cleaned all the snow on the roof of the cave.

Back in the yard, I used a shovel to shovel the snow to the side of the yard wall and piled it up. After a while, the yard became clean again.

"I'm in a hurry, we're not staying at home today, the snow has been swept away in vain." Lan Hua came out to pour water, laughing.

Wang Manyin clapped his hands and wrapped the scarf around his neck again, "Idle is idle, I don't want to see the mess at home."

Lan Hua patted the snowflakes on his body, "Come in and have noodles."

The vermicelli boiled by Lanhua was naturally delicious, and Matsukawa Matsuze said it was delicious, and it was not enough after eating, so he wanted to grab Wang Manyin's attention.

They also had many reasons, and they said straightforwardly: "Why does my father have such a big bowl, which is bigger than my face, and my brother and I eat so little?"

Wang Manyin squeezed their little faces, "Because Dad can eat a lot."

"No, we still want to eat."

Lan Hua said warmly: "Mama will give you peach cakes, okay? Papa put chili in the bowl, you can't eat it."

Song Chuan and Song Ze wanted to make trouble again, Lanhua threatened: "If you make trouble again, I don't care if Dad beats you."

The two sons took a look at Wang Manyin's gloomy face, shut up immediately, hugged his arm, and said coquettishly: "Father, we won't eat, we will eat peach cakes later."

Wang Manyin is not like orchids, she has always been as gentle as jade, and will really beat them up when she is angry.

Wang Manyin continued to eat the noodles in the bowl, "Your uncle is getting married today, I'm too lazy to take care of you."

After eating the noodles, Lan Hua went to clean up the dishes, while Wang Manyin dressed Matsukawa Matsuze, and brought water cups, blankets and other things.

After the family packed up, they extinguished all the fires in the house, locked the door, and rode the family's two cars to Shuangshui Village.

"Brother-in-law, have you eaten yet?" Shao'an cheerfully shoveled snow in the yard and greeted loudly.

"Why do you still let our groom official work? Come, put on the big red robe, and directly bring our bride back into the bridal chamber!"

Lan Hua patted her man's arm lightly, "Don't be ashamed or impatient, Shao'an, have you eaten yet? We ate it."

Shaoan said they had eaten, and let them go into the cave, where the fireplace was burning and it was very hot.

Wang Manyin and Sun Yuhou said hello, put down their satchels, put on their gloves, and came out to clear the snow in the yard with Shaoan.

After the snow was cleared, Wang Manyin took out the canvas from the car body and prepared to prop it on the yard to block the snow.

"One, two, three, get up!"

Both of them were strong, and with Sun Yuhou helping, the two huge canvases immediately cast a shadow in the yard.

"Hey, Man Yin is here too, Shaoan, what else are you doing?"

With a pipe in his mouth, Sun Yuting wore a half-worn cotton jacket and yellow rubber shoes, and walked into the yard with a smile on his face.

"There's a lot of things I haven't done. Second Dad, have you eaten yet? If you eat, move the table here first."

Sun Yuting rubbed his belly and said with a sneer, "I haven't eaten yet, let's fill my stomach first."

Shaoan smiled indifferently, and motioned him to go ahead and eat.

Sun Yuting walked into the cave, Lanhua and Xu Hui were decorating the house, pasting red paper-cuts on the wall, while Lanxiang and Shaoping were filling plates with melon seeds and peanut candies. Everyone had their own business to do.

Seeing him, Xu Hui smiled and brought out the leftover pimple soup from the morning, as well as two white flour buns, which made Sun Yuting feel round.

After eating and drinking enough, Sun Yuting was not idle, and placed the tables in a patchwork order in the yard.

One morning, everyone was busy, washing the dishes and cleaning the table, heating hot water, helping the chef Lan Hua with the dishes, laying down hands, hanging big red flowers on the bicycle, cleaning and so on.

With so many things, it is naturally impossible that only the two of them are busy. Jin Junhai, Tian Fugao, and other people who are very close to each other also came to help in advance.

Everyone talked and laughed, and the festive atmosphere became more and more serious.

At noon, Lanhua was in the kitchen, and everyone started to make two tables of delicious food, and everyone was full of praise and started to eat
