Chapter 76

In fact, when making fish, Puhuang had tasted it, just like tasting the stewed meat, she just thought it tasted good, better than the one made by herself, but obviously, Hong Haoan's sense of taste is much better than hers.

After tasting two different fishes with chopsticks each, Hong Haoan put down his chopsticks and frowned slightly, "The taste of this peach blossom fish is three or four points better than that of ordinary fish, even so, it still doesn't reach the level described in the book , Those spices and medicinal materials need to be further processed."

Pu Huang also tasted it with chopsticks. The difference between the two fishes was that they had been eaten, but she couldn't express any opinions. Hong Hao'an had more say than her in this matter. Research, there is a lot of time, what is the hurry?"

"Well, it's true, the lady has worked hard, eat fish." As he said, Hong Hao'an took a piece of fish with chopsticks, picked out the fish bone, and put it in Puhuang's bowl.

Reciprocating courtesy, Pu Huang also put two pieces of rabbit meat into his bowl, and the two of them ate in silence.

When Mr. Geography came over in the afternoon, he was accompanied by two people. He took a large bag of light yellow powder, sprinkled it in every corner of the house, and carefully observed the details of the house and its surroundings to see if there were any traces of it. In the end, he gave Hong Haoan something wrapped in red paper half the size of a palm, and asked him to put it on the highest beam in the middle of the hall when he worshiped on the day of moving.

The thank you gift for Mr. is in a cloth bag, which can be worn on the shoulder. After all, it doesn't look very good for a big man to carry a basket.

However, the most suitable day for moving is three days later, August 27th. The time is a bit rushed. Fortunately, the main furniture is almost ready, and we can move in one after another in these two days.As for the things needed for entertaining guests, Puhuang can prepare them himself, but he must ask someone to help him on the day of moving, and the choice of people is a problem.

After all, he didn't choose the right person, and if he offended the person, he would be depressed if he messed up the treat. Puhuang didn't want to use his brains, so he just threw it to Hong Haoan to solve, including how many people to invite.

Fortunately, the village is big, and all the treats come by one person, with at most one or two children, and it is rare that the whole family goes to eat.

Hong Hao'an knew that Puhuang didn't like this kind of thing, so he took it down, decided on the list, and invited them to the door. Except for Uncle Hong, Lao Zhai and Xu's family, all others were from the same surnamed clan, and some of them had good friends. His surname is human.

With the money to sell hawthorn seed oil, Puhuang didn’t intend to go up the mountain and toss it hard. He bought it directly. Anyway, he didn’t eat it himself. He ordered half a pig directly from the village butcher, and then he went to the village for chicken, duck and fish. Buying here is also considered selling to people in the same village.

However, the custom of entertaining guests here is different from that attended by Pu Huang in his previous life. In addition to dishes, rice and noodles are necessary, and these have to go to the town to prepare raw materials.As for the tables, pots, and pans used for entertaining guests, the clan has them for common use, and they just need to clean them up and return them after use.

Hong Haoan first asked Wang Shan and Liao's couple next door to help. Apart from the fact that they are the landlords, Wang Shan has good cooking skills, and he will be in charge of all weddings and funerals in the village. Naturally, the Liao family will accompany them. Help, as for the other kitchen helpers, he also asked his new neighbor, Mrs. Wang, to help.

After confirming the chef, Puhuang came to draw up the menu. It would be good to have everything ready, and it would be ugly if it was not enough temporarily.According to Hong Hao'an's estimate, there will be eleven tables, but Pu Huang thinks that there will be two more tables just in case, since there are not enough seats for this person, it is embarrassing enough.

Wang Shan is used to this job, the process is very clear, and he directly gave Puhuang a lot of suggestions, all of which save money and effort, such as roasting tofu with pork blood, and what is the most cost-effective way to cook fish, etc.

After a while, the eight dishes, six halos and two vegetables, were quickly drawn up, and the rice was dry rice, and the noodles were stewed noodles. As long as the amount is sufficient, there is no need to worry about not being full.

After three days, the young couple were very tired, this was the result of Xu's Hong Haozheng's help, and as Pu Huang expected, the old house had never thought of helping, Hong Haoping thought about it, but he Busy looking for land to build a house, the work in the field can't be left behind, but Mrs. Chen went to the new house twice, but didn't do any work. From Puhuang's point of view, she seemed to come to observe the new house.

It was finally the day of moving. I got up early in the morning and put on better clothes. Almost all the things in the thatched house were moved to the new house. There was only a little bit left, and it was enough to go back and forth twice.When the two arrived at the new house, Wang Shan and his wife were already busy with work. Under the large temporary stove, the tongue of fire was licking the bottom of the pot. There are other scents that make people feel hungry when they smell it.

Entering the hall, there is a pair of five-character couplets pasted on the back wall, and in the middle is a piece of red paper full of gods from all walks of life.Pu Huang put the things he had prepared before on the table of the Eight Immortals, then lit incense and asked Hong Haoan to worship.

After one round, not to mention the sweat on Hong Haoan's nose, even Puhuang felt tired, not the physical one.After worshiping all the ones that should be worshiped, burning the paper money, and bringing the sacrifices back to Wang Shan for disposal, the two sat down to have breakfast.

After the meal, the two of them had no time to spare. Pu Huang was helping in the kitchen, filling in if there was anything that was not enough, while Hong Haoan was sitting in the living room to entertain guests, chatting with those who came earlier, and it was not a bad idea. easy job.

Around Chen's hour, the second master of the Hong family and the Wu family arrived late, and sat down on the table set up at the door, and shouted to the busy people, "I'm hungry, hurry up and give me food."

Mrs. Wu came here so late, and she didn't say to help. Instead, she waited for someone to serve her like a master, which made the villagers feel ashamed. Chaoshi who came here, you haven’t woken up yet, have you?”

Mrs. Wu cast a glance at Mrs. Wang, "This isn't your house, what's the noise? What about the eldest daughter-in-law, why don't you bring good food soon?"

Mrs. Wang put the washed vegetables on the chopping board for Mrs. Liao to cut, wiped her hands, and said with a smile: "I know that today is the boss of your family who is moving to a new house, but it's fine if you come to help, and why don't you show the family's family history? If you don’t look at yourself, it’s not a joke for others to look at you.”

The second master of the Hong family saw that Wu Shi was so embarrassing, and he couldn't bear to teach her a lesson, so he went into the house. Just now, Wu Shi didn't stay at home to eat the morning food, and insisted on eating good ones, it was really embarrassing.Seeing this, Mrs. Chen hurriedly asked her children to play with other children. She rolled up her sleeves to absorb and stepped forward to help chop vegetables. She was not as confused as Mrs. Wu.

"You..." Mrs. Wu was so angry that her face flushed red, and she was about to scold, when she saw Mrs. Guan come out of the kitchen door. When she saw Mrs. Wu, she couldn't help but stare: "I said, second sibling, you don't care. You don't want to see Hao'an, and you don't have to make people feel uncomfortable on this good day, I really don't know how you have lived these past few decades, you are not serious!"

"You..." Mrs. Wu took a deep breath. She and Mrs. Guan have been at loggerheads for a long time. Unfortunately, the other party is superior to her in every way. Even if the son she gave birth to is more promising than her, she feels very aggrieved, "Oh, why? Yes, you are so enthusiastic, you really treat this as your home, it’s really good for the disabled, you won’t recognize it as your son, be careful and rest assured that your liver hurts!"

The corner of Guan's mouth twitched, only Wu could say such unreliable words, "He is my nephew, I treat him no differently from my son, but you gave birth to him, his strength is crooked, and you still hurt him hard , It's ridiculous."

Hearing Mrs. Guan's words, Mrs. Chen, who was chopping vegetables, trembled and almost cut her fingers. Mrs. Liao hurriedly helped Mrs. Chen, gave her a wink, and asked her to concentrate on her work.

Being so stimulated by Guan, Wu couldn't bear it, and almost jumped on it. Seeing that it was almost done, Pu Huang stepped forward and said, "Auntie, you go in and drink tea, mother, the sun is shining now. Let’s sit down first and have some snacks.”

"Yes, yes, the sun is getting brighter, sit in the room." Immediately, a woman watching the excitement echoed.

Wu hurriedly held back a lot of strength to fight out, but was dismissed in a few words. She was as depressed as she wanted, but with so many people watching, she didn't dare to do anything else, because the little girl before Her reputation in the village was bad enough, it couldn't be worse.

Thinking about it, Mrs. Wu entered the house angrily, and entered one of the wing rooms. There were mainly female relatives sitting there. There were tea, peanuts and pumpkin seeds on the table, and they were all knocking. Seeing Mrs. Wu coming in, she fell silent for a while up.This made Mrs. Wu a little upset. Are these people talking bad about her? Immediately angrily grabbed a lot of melon seeds and peanuts and sat down in the corner, staring fixedly at the other people present.

In view of Wu's making a little joke and being squeezed out by other women, fortunately, Hong Hao'an had already arranged to put all the people in the old house on the same table, regardless of whether there were enough people, Wu's food , I'm afraid no one wants to sit at the same table with her.

At noon, a temporary shed was set up at the door with rough cloth. Although there was still sunlight coming in, it was not so hot. It was mainly for the male guests, because they wanted to drink and order things, so they queued at the end of the house. No., and the house is mainly occupied by women and children, as well as relatives.

The dishes are served all at once. Fortunately, it’s not cold, and it’s not unpalatable when it’s cold, and there will be a pot of rice and a pot of stewed noodles for the two tables. If it’s not enough, there will be more in the kitchen.Puhuang and Hong Haoan were at the same table as Guan Shi. From their door, they could see Wu Shi’s table, and they could see Wu Shi took out a large bowl from under his loose clothes and began to pour delicious food into it. .

Seeing this, everyone shook their heads, really making people speechless.After Puhuang closed the door, several people began to eat slowly, chatting a few words from time to time, mainly about some things in life, Guan asked a lot, and Puhuang answered like this.

 Find a time to add updates, I really hope that it will rain, people who are afraid of people are too depressed...
