You're urging me to get married just for the sake of a feast?

On the day he won the prize, the news that someone in the town's lottery shop won 100,000 yuan spread quickly, making many people envious.

Although the owner of the town's lottery shop didn't know who won the jackpot, he certainly knew that someone in their betting station had won the prize.

How could the lottery betting station give up such a great publicity opportunity? Banners and posters were printed on the day of the prize and placed at the door of the store for publicity.

However, Chen Yuan didn't know about these at all. His idle fish lay flat at home for several days.

Time flies so fast.

In the blink of an eye, it was the day before the entrance banquet.

The time of the entrance banquet was set on August 10th. Everyone had time on that day, so they could get together.

The money for buying vegetables had been given to Chen Yuan by Sangu and others a long time ago.

On this day, Chen Yuan got up early in the morning and went to buy vegetables with Heizi, Chen An and others. But there was no need to go to the county town, because there were not many tables and the dishes were not complicated, so they could buy them at the morning market in Dongfeng Town.

"Hey, Chen An, why are you always so slow and not even active in buying vegetables."

"Chen Pingping, you should drive your car carefully and stop looking around. If you drive into a ditch, I will not forgive you."

"Chen An, didn't you agree not to call me by my real name?"

As soon as Chen An got in the car, he was teased by Heizi.

But Chen An's mouth was not a vegetarian, and he immediately used the other party's name to make a fuss. At this time, Heizi immediately got anxious.

"You can call me Heizi, but you have to buy me a set of the King of Pesticide equipment that I like."

"Okay! Then you have to call me Heizi from now on, and I will buy it for you."

"No problem, Heizi, we are all good brothers."

"..."

Hearing that Heizi agreed to help him buy a set of pesticide equipment, Chen An was immediately satisfied and readily agreed to Chen Ping... Oh no, Heizi's request.

Chen Yuan looked at the couple's love-hate relationship and shook his head speechlessly.

"Chen An, why don't you dress more maturely today? I'll have to rely on you to bargain later."

"Yuanzi, don't worry, I know all the vegetable sellers in the town, so there's no need to disguise myself."

"Okay, anyway, the money for buying vegetables has been given to me by my third aunt, and she told me not to save money for them and to save up to buy. I didn't call the kitchen helpers in the village, but just called you two. After the banquet, there will definitely be leftovers, which will benefit us."

"Hehe, Yuanzi, you are still reliable. There will probably be many students at the entrance banquet, and they can't eat much. Those leftovers will be ours."

"Don't give me the fare this time, just give me the whole elbow."

After hearing what Chen Yuan said, Chen An and Heizi were immediately happy.

They all knew that Chen Yuan's cousin was a liberal arts student, and liberal arts students were mostly girls, and girls had small appetites, so there would probably be a lot of food left over, which would be good for the kitchen helpers.

Although Tangjia'ao Village, where Tang Ningning's hometown was located, was only ten kilometers away from Chen Village, it was under the jurisdiction of the neighboring Wentian Town.

It was not easy for people from Chen Village to go there to help in the kitchen, after all, the Tang family was just holding a graduation banquet, and there were not many tables, so neighbors and relatives could come to help out.

"What, Chen An went to the vegetable market to buy vegetables?"

"My goodness, I'd better ask my wife to come and look at the stalls, I'm no match for that kid."

"That little bastard bargained too hard, I'm really afraid of him."

When they heard that Chen An had gone to the vegetable market, the vendors avoided him as if they had encountered a plague, and hid in fear.

"Uncle Jiang, where are you going? Are you hiding from me on purpose?"

"No way, no, I just happened to have something else to do, so I thought of asking your aunt to come over for me."

"No, I'll buy it before you go. Don't worry, I'm not buying one by one today, but in bundles."

"...That's even worse, really, I really have something to do, hey...don't hold me."

The vendor was really scared of him. Usually, he would haggle for a long time to buy an onion.

Today, the other party actually said that he wanted to buy it in bundles. How scary is that.

If Chen An hadn't hugged him, Uncle Jiang, the vegetable seller, would have wanted to run away like crazy.

With Chen An's efforts, they bought some seasonal vegetables to stir-fry.

"Oh, I'm going to die. This guy always keeps the price so low, but I didn't lose money this time. He insisted on the price and said you can buy it or not. I didn't expect that he bought dozens of kilograms of vegetables. Although I didn't make much money, at least I didn't lose money."

The vendor sighed when he saw Chen An carrying the vegetables away.

"I've bought spinach and eggplant. Now I'm going to buy some cucumbers for salad."

Chen Yuan said.

Chen Yuan's three aunts didn't live in their hometown, so they didn't grow vegetables, so they had to buy all these vegetables."Buy some beef and pork. Oh, by the way, don't forget the ribs. We'll make sweet and sour ribs. Students love them."

"Buy some chicken feet. We'll make lemon chicken feet."

"Also pigeons. Buy a dozen and make roasted squab. For fish, buy carp. They're economical and delicious. Buy a dozen and make braised fish."

The three of them walked around the vegetable market and bought almost all the dishes.

The vegetable market in the town is not very big, and there are only a few vegetable vendors.

No chicken is complete without a feast. For chicken, go to Heizi's house. His parents raise authentic free-range chickens in the mountains. They are definitely much better than the feed chickens on the market.

Those feed chickens are really not delicious. They're too tender and smell fishy. They don't taste like chicken at all when they're roasted.

When the three of them moved all the dishes to the car, it was already completely bright.

This time, Chen Yuan drove. He was the only one who knew the way to his third uncle's hometown.

Tangjiaao Village is located in the belly of Ziqueling Mountain. Unlike Chen Village, the terrain is not as flat, and the houses of the villagers are not concentrated. They are scattered here and there.

The winding mountain road up the mountain is really winding and steep, and there are cliffs next to it. If Chen Yuan was not an experienced driver, he would not dare to drive on such a road.

Tangjiaao Village is a very distinctive ancient village, with nearly 200 households living here. All of them are pole-rail-style board houses, and the layers of primitive courtyards form a unique landscape with scattered patterns. Many tourists come here every year.

I remember that Chen Yuan liked to come here to play when he was a child. Later, Sangu and his family bought a house in the town. He rarely lived in his hometown, so he never came again.

Sangu and his family came here early these two days. The house has not been occupied for a long time, and there is no "popularity" at all. It is cold and deserted, and there is dust everywhere. Of course, it needs to be cleaned.

"Third uncle, good morning, help move the vegetables down first."

"Okay, move everything in first. As for meat, it's too hot in this weather, I'm afraid we have to put it in the refrigerator first. Hey, why didn't you buy a chicken? Aren't you going to make a roast chicken?"

"Oh, if you want chicken, go to Heizi's house. They raise chickens."

"No problem, you have the final say on these."

Third uncle hurried over to help get things, and didn't question his nephew. Anyway, the money was given to him, and it was his business where he bought the ingredients.

"Let's settle the ingredients here first."

"What do you want to settle? We are all family members. I don't trust you?"

"Don't come on, let's put things in order. Everyone should follow the normal procedures."

"Okay, I'll go get a pen and paper."
