Rising sun in the early morning.
Driver Xiao Li arrived at the courtyard early.
When he arrived at the place, He Yuzhu found that the atmosphere today was a little different from yesterday.
The outside of the courtyard was full of people who came to worship.
He Yuzhu didn't have time to worry about that much. He had to prepare twenty-eight dishes for today's banquet.
Although he doesn't need to do things like washing the dishes, serving dishes, and washing the dishes, cooking alone can keep him busy.
I kept busy like this until after twelve o'clock, and the dishes were placed one by one.
This scratching fragrance invaded most of the village.
This made the already lively scene outside the hospital even more lively.
Some held their children and their partners, and some even came with their entire family.
If you don’t know this scene, you might think you are here to catch a big fair.
"Can you walk faster? What if we run out of space?"
"My mother, why are there so many people? Why did I even see Dakui from the next village?"
"It's terrible. It's not because of the smell. The news spread yesterday afternoon. The dogs in the village were so greedy that they couldn't sleep and howled all night long."
"Then we can't have so many people coming. Why do these people who are not close or related to us want to come?"
"There's nothing to be embarrassed about. It's not like I'm disrespectful."
"It's really scary. I usually dig and search, but now I'm so generous with the courtesy."
The person who spoke was a middle-aged man. She glanced at the people present and was slightly shocked.
Then I looked at the dishes that had been plated, and I couldn't help but be shocked.
Oops!
No wonder so many people came.
"Today's banquet is quite hard. If I had known it, I wouldn't have had breakfast."
"The craftsmanship of the masters in this city is so good, why does this taste so good!"
"My son is getting married next month. It would be great if I could invite this master chef to serve. It would definitely be more honorable."
"You still want to eat shit? You can hire a master from the city? Find a place to sit quickly, there won't be any seats later."
Everyone was chatting away, catching up with the excitement of the New Year.
When Director Yang and others came back from the cemetery, they were dumbfounded when they saw so many people.
"Uncle, is something wrong? Why are so many people here?"
Uncle Yang, the elder of the factory, looked up and was also shocked.
The twenty-eight tables they originally prepared are now all occupied, and many people who have no seats are standing there, waiting for the host's arrangement.
What's going on? The whole village is here?
In fact, not only the people of the whole village, but also the dogs of the whole village came.
These dogs are also quite clever and are worried about being chased away, so they lie down under the table obediently and don't even say a word.
The old uncle who saw this scene didn't know what to do.
"Director, these twenty-eight tables don't seem to be enough. I think we need to add ten more tables." He Yuzhu walked to Director Yang and said with some worry.
History is always surprisingly similar, and the same situation has already happened once in Qinjiazhuang.
He Yuzhu didn't think of this, otherwise he would have reported it to Director Yang yesterday.
Director Yang also had a sad look on his face: "My uncle didn't expect so many people to come. These twenty-eight tables are already a lot. I thought it would be more than enough."
This was the first time he encountered such a situation. Everyone, familiar and unfamiliar, came to eat.
And they are all from the same village, so they can be somewhat related to each other.
The person in charge of recording in the accounting room is the former village chief, a very prestigious old man.
But this old man has lived for more than eighty years, and this is the first time he has encountered such a thing.
When the old man saw Factory Director Yang and his team coming back, he stood up and walked over.
"Jicai, did you miscalculate the person? With so many people here, the twenty-eight tables cannot be seated!"
Jicai is the name of Yang Chang's elder uncle, his full name is Wang Jicai.
Wang Jicai also has a big head. It is impossible to count wrongly, and it is impossible to count wrongly in this life.
These days, who can host twenty-eight tables?
"Uncle, how could I be wrong about this matter?"
"Look, everyone in our village is almost here, and I also see a few from other villages."
"With so many people here, I don't know what to do."
Wang Jicai's brother and sister were all honest farmers, and they all stared at each other, not knowing what to do.
Not to mention the main family, there are also some people from the mother's family who have not found a place and are waiting for arrangements.
"Brother, you have to make an idea."
Aunts and uncles habitually ask their eldest brother if they have something to do.
After all, an elder brother is like a father. Now that his parents are gone, he, the eldest brother, has to make a decision.
Wang Ji rubbed his face with his hands irritably, opening and closing his mouth.
Do I have an idea?
Where can I make up my mind?
Wang Jicai didn't know what to do.
Seeing that his uncle and sister-in-law couldn't come up with any ideas after holding it in for a long time, Director Yang said, "Is that so? It's not suitable for our master to come forward."
"There are so many elders here, we have to find someone with weight."
Wang Jicai nodded after hearing this.
What my nephew said makes sense. There are so many elders present. If these juniors don't handle it well, their reputation will be ruined.
The other people also nodded, feeling that what this capable nephew said made sense.
Thinking of this, several people looked at the former village chief in tacit agreement.
"How about asking our uncle to come forward?" Wang Jicai asked tentatively.
The brothers and sisters nodded in unison, they thought so too.
So Director Yang invited the old man back again.
Wang Jicai said straight to the point: "Uncle, these extra people came without saying hello."
"But here, the ingredients and everything are prepared according to the table of twenty or so. What should we do now?"
The former village elder was speechless after hearing this.
You ask me how to fix it?
This is your family's business. I'm just here to help with the accounting.
"Uncle, you are the most prestigious person in our village. You must be good at what you say. We juniors are counting on you to make decisions."
The old man felt very comfortable hearing these words.
But no matter how comfortable you are, you can't do anything to offend others.
This kid Wang Jicai, shouldn't he ask me to come out to drive people away?
Thinking of this, the old man waved his hand: "I'm an outsider, so it's not easy for me to kick people out, right?"
Wang Jicai and others were immediately startled, and quickly denied: "Old man, I don't want to say this."
"If we drive people away, why don't the villagers stab us in the back?"
"What we mean is, uncle, please go out and give them a message. There are too many people coming, and we don't have enough tables and chairs."
"Ask them if you can squeeze in?"
Among the people who came, there were many children.
These children occupying one chair is somewhat of a waste.
So he thought about it and asked the old man to come forward and let the adult with the child hold the child and eat.
Then the adults would squeeze in again and maybe sit down.
