The old man glanced at the people who came to eat and understood what Wang Jicai meant.
If children don't take up space, they can indeed free up some space.
But there were so many people that we couldn't even make room for them.
The old man thought for a while and came up with two solutions.
The first is to divide these people into two batches, eat the first round, and then arrange for the second round to be eaten.
But this will cost more money.
And there is no time to prepare some ingredients.
After hearing this method, Wang Jicai's brother and sister all shook their heads in embarrassment.
This cost is too much, and the brothers and sisters cannot bear it.
The old man also understood their difficulties, so he expressed his second idea.
That is to first free up a few tables for the mother-in-law's family.
After all, my mother's family is a distinguished guest and I have to entertain them well.
As for the people in this village, they can sit as much as they can. Those who can't sit down go find some tables and chairs and put them together so that everyone can eat standing up.
Anyway, the portions prepared for this meal are quite sufficient. When serving, put less in each portion so that you can give out more portions.
For this solution, Wang Jicai and others quite agreed.
After some discussion, they went to inform the guests.
The people who came to the banquet also knew the host family's difficulties and were very cooperative.
Especially those who bring a large family and those who come uninvited.
These people are a little embarrassed.
But there is no way, the smell of this banquet is too fragrant.
Since yesterday afternoon, the smell of stewed meat has spread for miles, attracting all the greedy people here.
"Everyone, please be quiet. There are not enough tables, chairs, benches, pots and pans."
"Everyone who is close to home should go home and move their things. The banquet will start soon." Wang Jicai shouted at the top of his voice.
When the neighbors who lived nearby heard that there was not enough food to eat, they immediately went home to get food.
After all, this is about whether you can work more.
"Don't panic, it's not a big problem. Let's go home and move things."
With the cooperation of everyone, tables, chairs, benches, pots and pans were quickly arranged.
More than a dozen square tables were placed directly on the roadside, forming a long queue.
The neighbors also brought their own benches, bowls and chopsticks, and were ready to start the feast.
After everyone was settled, Director Yang breathed a sigh of relief.
I glanced at the time on my wrist, it was almost one o'clock.
So he walked out of the yard and shouted to He Yuzhu: "The banquet is open!"
He Yuzhu is still cooking.
When they heard the signal to start the banquet, they arranged for the Wang family to start serving food.
"Serve the food, bring the cold dishes first to make room!"
The guests who were about to have a meal immediately became energetic when they heard this voice.
I've been hungry all morning, but I can finally eat.
Watching the Wang family running around serving food, some people even took the initiative to help serve food.
Although the place where the banquet is held is in the countryside, there are still some rules.
For example, the people who had to help serve the food just now were all juniors.
These juniors also serve food to the older generation first.
Then he returned to his table to eat.
The atmosphere at the older tables was very harmonious.
These old people were drinking and picking up food, and they would praise them from time to time.
But at the women's tables, the atmosphere was a little tense.
As soon as the cold dishes were brought to the table, the chopsticks started to wave quickly.
First put a chopstick into your child's bowl, and then eat it yourself.
In just ten seconds, the plate of cold haggis was completely snatched away, not even the chopped green onion was left.
"Son, hurry up and eat. New dishes will be served soon."
A little daughter-in-law wearing a hat was busy stuffing haggis into her son's mouth.
The doll seemed dissatisfied with her mother's behavior and said she wanted to eat it by herself.
The little daughter-in-law did not force herself when she saw this, she picked up a chopstick of haggis and put it into her mouth.
These haggis are processed very cleanly and have no smell at all.
The cold sauce and haggis are blended together, making it tender and refreshing in your mouth. It's so delicious that you can't stop eating it.
Unknowingly, the haggis in the bowl was wiped out by the two of them.
The little wife looked at the empty bowl and licked her lips unsatisfiedly.
If I had known that this cold dish was so delicious, I would have grabbed more.
Take another look at the plates on the table.
Good guy!
Most of the cold vegetables were gone, not even the chopped green onions, leaving only a little bit of soup.
"Mom, I still want to eat, I still want to eat!"
The baby swallowed what was in his mouth and felt that it was not enough.
The young daughter-in-law touched her son's head and comforted him in a low voice: "Don't worry, the next dish will be served soon."
He Yuzhu's pot and shovel were almost spitting out sparks, and he couldn't keep up with the speed of these people cooking.
The Wang family was not idle, walking among the crowd carrying plates.
"Come on, here's the new dish."
When the little baby saw the plate, he shouted in surprise.
Everyone looked at it, their eyes fixed on the plate.
Spicy shredded cabbage!
Different from ordinary cold cabbage, this spicy shredded cabbage is seasoned with red oil, and the color is very attractive.
When the plates were placed on the table, an aunt picked up the chopsticks first and pinched them hard.
Everyone followed closely, picking up food one after another.
But no matter how fast they were, they were still one step behind Big Mom.
The aunt had already put the shredded cabbage with the first chopstick into the bowl, and then quickly picked up the second chopstick.
Oops!
Don’t talk about martial ethics!
There isn't much to this dish, so you still have to pick up a second chopstick.
Everyone else at the table looked at the aunt with displeasure.
But the aunt doesn't care about the opinions of these people. It is the last word to eat more.
Everyone just condemned in their hearts, and they all followed suit and settled down first.
In an instant, the plate with spicy shredded cabbage was empty.
The aunt looked at the results in the bowl with satisfaction and took a sip with some pride.
The first thing you notice when you eat this spicy shredded cabbage is spicy, followed closely by the aroma of red oil.
Chew it gently, the crisp texture and spicy taste make aunt feel like summer in this dish.
Every shredded cabbage is wrapped in seasonings, and every bite is spicy and crunchy, making it impossible to stop eating.
Compared with this table, the tables for gentlemen are quite harmonious.
They were drinking and eating, and the CD was played at a slower speed.
Some little babies discovered this and left their mother's arms to find their biological father.
"My mother, it's like there's a famine in the courtyard. The dishes are all clean in a flash."
Wang Jicai's eldest son had just returned from carrying the vegetables. Before he even left the yard, he found that the vegetables were gone.
"It's not because it tastes good. I took a look just now and saw that the ladies' table was the most crowded, while the men's table was slightly better."
"It's only a little better. The gentlemen usually drink and drink. Today they are busy picking up vegetables."
The cousin who was following behind the eldest son couldn't help but sigh.
"Well, if there weren't so many people here, we could sit down and have a meal."
"By the time we're done, we probably won't have anything to eat."
Wang Jicai's eldest son touched his growling stomach and said with an aggrieved look.
The whole family was serving food, and they were so busy that they didn't even get a bite to eat.
And these fragrant dishes can only be seen but not eaten, not to mention how uncomfortable it is.
