Chapter 200 Gifts Are Rich

"Projectionist, announcer, are you kidding me?"

"Evidence from the morning."

"I picked up so many people, are you going to have a banquet?"

"If you don't do it, just invite a few relatives from both sides to get together."

"Look at the situation, there are several guests!"

"Hehe, there are two or three seats..."

"..."

After arriving in the textile city, I can meet acquaintances from time to time to greet each other.

Jiang Ping'an and Guo Yan got married, although the movement was not big, it was not small.

So much fanfare to decorate the wedding room, cook meals, and invite guests.

In the morning, everyone around knew that the two were married.

In the future, when Guo Yan moves here, no one will say that the two of them messed up the relationship between men and women.

In fact, even if there is no banquet or wedding, Jiang Ping'an will release the news.

This can't be kept under wraps.

What a happy thing, don't be too low-key, so as not to cause misunderstandings if others don't know.

The wind and snow are still there, and it is freezing cold.

When they arrived in front of Yuanba, they all got out of the car with their things after they parked.

"Is this the place where Ping An lives? It's not bad!" After getting out of the car, Chen Zezhong looked around and said with a smile.

The women in the room who heard the movement all filed out. Chen Xiuzhen stepped forward to take the supplies and said happily:
"Dad, are you here? Why isn't Mom here?"

Chen Zezhong shook his head and said, "She gets motion sickness, no matter how much I persuade her not to come."

"Old Chen, don't stand outside and sit in the room." Jiang Dahai said with a smile.

Several people entered the house carrying things.

Guo Yan's mother took Guo Yan's hand and said kindly:

"A lot of your uncles and aunts didn't come, but we brought gifts. Each family has at least one chicken."

"This time we brought a total of twelve chickens, as well as some vermicelli, wild mushrooms, garlic and so on."

Guo Yan smiled openly and said, "This is a big favor, yes, I will pay back Ping An slowly in the future."

Under the eaves, Jiang Ping'an and Miao Hexiang gathered the gifts together.

The chickens are all bound with their feet and wings, all piled together.

Some local specialties were taken to the kitchen and bedroom respectively.

"It's a pity to eat these poultry. I will find time to sell them." Jiang Ping'an smiled.

He counted twenty chickens alone, six ducks, and eighteen rabbits.

Although Jiang Dahai and Jiang Xindong came from Jiang Pingan's old family, there were many gifts, all from the clan.

Chicken, duck, rabbit, bacon, smoked fish, wild mushrooms, vermicelli, dried dates, persimmons, etc., are quite rich.

Chen Zezhong's family did not send chickens and ducks, but brought over eight bottles of loose wine, more than ten catties of honey, and more than ten catties of candied fruit.

Da Nier also asked Jiang Dahai to help bring gifts, including six catties of white sugar, two catties of brown sugar and two bottles of loose wine.

To be honest, these days, a gift usually costs three to five cents, and at most one or two yuan is a big favor.

But Jiang Dahai, Chen Zezhong and the others obviously did not treat them according to the general standard.

Miao Hexiang nodded and said with a smile: "Yanzi's mother has a lot of family members, and she is generous."

"It's quite a lot, so I brought them a letter in advance, and only prepared a banquet." Jiang Pingan replied with a smile.

"If you don't remind me, the scene will be huge, big and small, old and young together, at least eight or nine tables."

Miao Hexiang covered her mouth with a smile and said, "Where are people from our production team? Only Uncle Dahai and Xindong are here."

"That can't be helped, just two or three tables of food, and I don't dare to invite too many people." Jiang Pingan shook his head and said helplessly.

In fact, he also likes to be lively, but if he really wants to make a big fuss these days, he must cause unnecessary trouble.

"Let's repay the favor slowly in the future, and bring more food back to give away during the New Year."

After the two quickly tidied things up, Miao Hexiang said:
"Hurry up and go back to the house to accompany the guests, leave this place to me."

Jiang Pingan felt relieved when Miao Hexiang was doing business, nodded and smiled, then turned and went to the living room.

Silly Zhu made a pot of brown sugar ginger soup, and now he was sitting in the living room drinking it from a bowl, not saying a word about the homework.

Dongjiazhuang and Nantai Commune are next to each other, and they are all country people. When relatives of both sides meet, they have something to say.

Jiang Pingan took out the cigarettes, stepped forward to release them one by one, and heard Chen Zezhong ask:
"Peace, is the wedding held at noon or at night?"

Jiang Pingan smiled and said, "A few leaders have to go to work during the day and are not free, so we can only hold it at night."

"Ping An, there are so many of us, do we have a place to stay at night?" Jiang Xindong asked with a smile.

Jiang Dahai glared at him and said, "Can you talk? Could it be that Ping An will throw you on the street?"

"Hehe, it's okay, Xin Dongping and I can talk about anything." Jiang Ping'an said with a smile.

"Of course there is a place to live. You can live in a guest house. I said hello there, and you can also live at home."

"I burned the kangs in the living room and kitchen early in the morning, and I borrowed a few quilts to prepare."

"In addition, sister-in-law Miao and Yanzi's colleagues Tian Shu and Qingfang can also stay overnight."

Chen Zezhong nodded and smiled and said, "If you can save it, save it, the living room won't be full of people."

"Just now I discussed with my in-laws, the men will live in your kitchen, and the women will go to Miao Hexiang and the others."

Jiang Ping'an nodded and said, "That's fine, I'll take some quilts over there in the afternoon."

"No, we all have quilts in our room, and besides, there are not many women, so it's enough." Tian Shu answered.

After talking for a while, Guo Yan took all the female relatives to the bedroom to chat.

Jiang Pingan took Chen Zezhong, Jiang Dahai, Guo Lin and others out to wander around.

Among these guests, only Chen Zezhong came to the city most, and the others seldom went to the city.

Even in the cold weather, they are all in high spirits.

For nothing else, I have gained knowledge in the city, and I can brag and show off to others after returning to the countryside.

The cold wind rustled, and the white snow swayed.

"Your factory is really big, and you can't see the end at a glance." Jiang Dahai looked up and said.

Jiang Pingan sighed softly: "It's a pity that there is a shortage of raw cotton. The three factories and their subsidiary units have basically stopped production."

"No wonder it's so deserted, did anyone say when production will resume?" Chen Zezhong asked.

Jiang Pingan shook his head and said, "It's hard to say. According to the leadership, it will be the second half of next year at the earliest."

"Hey, it's hard!" Jiang Dahai said with a sigh.

Jiang Ping'an nodded and said, "Agriculture is the basic industry for the construction and development of the national economy."

"In the past few years, the agricultural production has been greatly reduced, and the industry will naturally be affected. There is no way."

Chen Zezhong pointed to the nearby row house and asked: "The workers in your factory live in this house?"

"Yes, this area looks like it used to be. There is also a dormitory for female workers in the factory." Jiang Pingan nodded and smiled.

Jiang Xindong said: "When I first came here, I looked at the rooms of several families from a distance, and it seemed that the conditions were not very good."

"It's normal. Housing in the city is much tighter than in the countryside." Chen Zezhong said with a smile.

"Besides, this is a row of houses. The rooms are not big. To put it bluntly, it's hard for a whole family to turn around."

Jiang Pingan laughed and said, "It's a fact. If a guest comes, you can only squat on the bed."

"There are also the ones next to the latrines. It's better in winter, and the weather is slightly warmer, but the smell is terrible."

Jiang Dahai said with a narrow smile: "I'm used to it and live on as usual. Aren't all the toilets in our countryside near our homes?"

In the country, if you don't smell a bit of shit, you don't have a soul...
