Scholars in the courtyard.

Chapter 110 Full Moon Wine

Hearing the knock on the door, Xu Damao seemed to have found a savior. He quickly got up and threw the bowl on the table, and ran to the door to open it.

Outside the door, Jia Dongxu looked at Xu Damao with a smile on his face, as if showing off, Xu Damao responded for a while.

Don't you just have a son?After a while, brother drank the big tonic soup, we also have a son.

Hmph, who do you look down upon?

"Dongxu, what's the matter? No money to buy milk powder?"

Xu Damao deliberately sprinkled salt on the wounds of the Jia family. Now who doesn't know that the eldest grandson of the Jia family can eat it, and even chooses milk powder to eat, which can be afforded by ordinary families?

Jia Dongxu's face trembled, which really made Xu Damao die.

Seeing that his son's full moon is coming, several members of the Jia family discussed and planned to set up a few tables and collect some money.

Of course, in order to maximize the benefits, the Jia family has spent a lot of brains.

First of all, how many tables to set must be calculated.

The people they plan to invite are basically people from courtyard houses, and some acquaintances in the alleys.

According to Jia Zhang, as long as anyone who can say a few words will be sent an invitation card, I believe these people will definitely come for the sake of face.

A few people calculated around, and according to ten people per table, almost five tables can be set up.

Of course, this is just counting the adults. These days, the family pays a share of the money for weddings, but when it comes to meals, the whole family goes.

As far as these five tables are concerned, only half of the children are left. If women and children are included, the number of invitations they send must be doubled.

Once the number of people invited is confirmed, the food will be served on the table.

So, the second step is meal prep.

Generally speaking, this kind of happy event requires meat and meat, and it would be too embarrassing to have a whole table of vegetarian dishes.

But buying meat requires not only money but also a meat ticket. With the ability of the Jia family, buying a catty of meat can also be used as a tooth-beating sacrifice. If there are five tables, how can a catty of meat be enough?

In the end, Jia Dongxu gritted his teeth and went to Pigeon Market to spend money to buy three catties of pork.

As for the cook, they unanimously decided to ask Sha Zhu to help.

There are really too many benefits to letting silly Zhu cook.

Not only are oil, salt, soy sauce, etc. saved, but the money is not worth mentioning, and there is no need to pay wages.

I believe that Yi Zhonghai can handle this matter.

Calculated in this way, the cost of a table of vegetables with steamed buns and two boxes of noodle buns is only about [-] yuan.

In the end, it is the calculation of gains and losses.

Qin Huairu was taking notes at the side, and after some analysis, Jia Zhang estimated that it would cost [-] or [-] yuan this time around, but the benefits were hard to say.

Ordinary people usually spend fifty cents for banquets, and those who come with the whole family will take care of the host's house and take a piece.

Calculated in this way, more than 30 households were invited to the entire banquet. Calculated on an average of 24 cents, it is [-], which can net more than half of the profit.

However, Jiazhang is not satisfied with the little money at all. She wants to use this full moon wine to search for more money. Not only can it solve the problem of eating for the grandson, but the family can also be richer, and it can also be rich when the Chinese New Year comes. .

So, there is the last step.

That is the minimum standard for clarifying member money.

According to Jia Zhang, their family bought a lot of pork, hired a chef like Sha Zhu, spent the drinks, and divided the candy, and at least two yuan was charged for those who came.

Therefore, in the last column of the invitation, Mrs. Jia Zhang added a sentence on her own initiative, that each household should give at least two yuan.

Qin Huairu objected to this, but her voice was never heard in Jia's house.

And Jia Dongxu also imagined that if he received five or sixty yuan, it would be worth their monthly salary.

Now, Jia Dongxu takes on the task of sending invitations door to door.

No, let's start from the backyard, the first one is Xu Damao's house.

"Da Mao, it's a full moon, I'll set up two tables in the yard, invite you to drink!"

With that said, Jia Dongxu handed the written invitation to him, and Xu Damao took it without reading it.

"Hey, you are so proud of what you do."

Xu Damao didn't expect the Jia family to do such a thing, it was unexpected.

"That's not right, this is also a good thing for our hospital, you have to go have a drink then."

"It's no good to have a drink. You should prepare more wine when the time comes. We won't go home until we're drunk."

"Come on, just your two taels of wine, you must lie on the table."

"Remember to go early, let's go!"

Jia Dongxu joked, but his heart was like a mirror, and he must not buy too much wine, otherwise the cost would increase again.

Xu Damao knew his drinking capacity, and he didn't mind, so after being polite, Jia Dongxu walked towards the second uncle.

Returning to the room with the invitation card, sitting at the table and throwing it to Lou Xiaoe, Xu Damao picked up the bowl again.

In order to give his son a full moon next year, he worked hard.

Lou Xiao'e on the side watched Xu Damao pinch his nose and poured down a large bowl, smiled knowingly, and then looked at the invitation.

"Da Mao, the Jia family is also very interesting."

"What's wrong?"

Xu Damao was holding back vomiting, holding his breath, and uttered two words when he heard the words.

"Look. This Jia's family let people eat banquets, and even stipulated the share money."

Lou Xiaoe walked up to her, pointed to the words on the back of the invitation and said.

Xu Damao stared, "Intuity, the Jia family must be crazy poor."

"If you want to fart, the family pays two yuan. What kind of wedding banquet is there? Why don't you just go to a restaurant."

Lou Xiaoe also nodded when she heard that, two yuan for a family, more than ten per table, enough to go to a small restaurant for a whole table of good dishes.

"Then, shall we still go?"

"Go? If I go, will I be a fool?"

Xu Damao yelled, snatched the invitation card, inspected it twice, tore it up, and threw it under the corner of the table.

"It's really poor and crazy, and it's our head."

"Hmph, wait and see how they end up."

Xu Damao spoke viciously, while Jia Dongxu continued to distribute invitations.

After inviting the second uncle to be the host, the second uncle happily accepted the invitation, the excitement in his heart was beyond words, and he finally had the opportunity to stand at the front desk and express his heart.

Leaving the second uncle's house, Jia Dongxu distributed invitations in the backyard again, even the deaf old lady was not left behind, and finally walked around the middle courtyard and the front yard before leaving the courtyard to deliver invitations in the alley.

In the front yard, the third mother was lying on the bed and serving the youngest daughter. Yan Fugui stood aside and listened to Yan Jiefang's reader's invitation. At the end, the eldest brother Yan Xiecheng sneered.

"Is there any invitation like this?"

"It's clear to let people take the money, this Jia's is really interesting."

After Yan Jiecheng finished speaking, the three mothers on the bed regained their spirits.

In the past few days, she can make all the good things in the house, and her mouth is full of oil and water. If it weren't for the poor family, she would also like to live a life where Yang Xiaotao eats meat every day.

Unfortunately, family conditions do not allow it.

Hearing what the Jia family did, he immediately shouted to Yan Fugui, "His father. Look..."

Needless to say, Yan Fugui knew what she meant, didn't he just want to imitate others, but this is offending, and for the sake of long-term consideration, he really can't do this.

Waving his hand, he stopped his wife's words, "This is killing chickens to get eggs, eating more than enough food, and catching fish. After this time, I won't be able to take advantage of it."

"Besides, the people in this yard are not fools. How many people do you think can afford the money?"

After a few people thought about it, it was true.

Not to mention anything else, apart from Yan Fugui's salary in their daily life, and Yan Xiecheng's occasional work now, it's just to maintain food and clothing. Let them take two yuan for a meal, wouldn't they be so distressed?
"Father, shall we still go?"

Yan Jiecheng asked.

Yan Fugui took off his glasses, put them in his mouth, and then wiped away any dust with the corner of his clothes.

"Go, why not go?"

"Let's give two yuan, and when Xie Di is full moon, his Jia family will have to return two yuan and one."

"Earning a dime in vain is a dime, so it should be regarded as an investment."

When the few people heard this, they all laughed. After all, they could count on the Jia family and eat a delicious meal, which was enough for them to be happy.

In the middle courtyard, Sha Zhu personally sent Qin Huairu out, with a smile in the corner of his eyes and a happy face.

"Zhu Zi, then I will trouble you then!"

Qin Huairu stood at the door, looked back and smiled, with all kinds of flair, she stared stupidly.

"Good, good."

"Leave this to me, don't worry."

Sha Zhu patted his chest to reassure, and put all the reluctance at the beginning to the back of his mind.

According to the usual cook's rules, it's not a problem to get some benefits at one table, but the host has to give a lottery after the work is over.

But that's good, I don't say that I don't make any money, I don't make any money, and I have to spend a lot of seasonings, a loss, that's a real loss.

Especially if you have to be a guest after cooking by yourself, you can't lose a penny. Who will be annoyed by this matter?

But looking at Qin Huairu's appearance, Sha Zhu didn't care about it anymore.

Jia's family is so difficult, why can't he get something to eat as a cook?
"Just think of it as feeling sorry for sister Xiaoqin!"

Looking at Qin Huairu's plump back, especially the plump one after giving birth, Silly swallowed, and went back to the house to continue to caress.

Just because Shazhu can see it, it doesn't mean that other people can also understand it.

Some people in the middle courtyard started to yell, especially the grumpy ones, who immediately started cursing after seeing the invitation in their hands.

"This is no longer a human being!"

Wang Dashan next door walked out of the door and shouted at the Li family brothers who also came out.

"Who says it's not? The minimum is two yuan. Why the hell are the noodles so expensive?"

"Isn't that right? We've been old neighbors for many years. Wouldn't it be a slap in the face if you don't send them up?"

"Slap in the face? Does the Jia family still have face?"

A group of people gathered together and complained. The elder Yi Zhonghai was sitting at home, looking at the invitation card on the table, and sighed.

Can he not hear the sound outside?But he didn't dare to go out and be this villain.

When the aunt heard this, she was also troubled, "Old man, what's going on in this Jia family?"

"Invite people to eat noodles, why do you still do this?"

Yi Zhonghai sighed, "Where did the trouble come from? It's not because of lack of money."

The aunt immediately lowered her head when she heard this. Everyone knew that the Jia family had given up everything for the child.

Of course, it's not like theirs. Don't you know how much rice is in the pot?
Insisting on swollen faces to pretend to be fat, and dragging the whole hospital to give their family money, really, it's a beautiful idea, and treat others as fools.

"Then what should we do?"

The aunt asked if he wanted to go, but Yi Zhonghai said firmly, "If others don't go, we have to go too."

Hearing this, the aunt was secretly sad.

This is the sore point of not having children. When asking for help, you have to look at the face of the person.
