He worked until two o'clock, when He Yuzhu finally finished his work.
"Master Xiao He, you have worked really hard today. If you hadn't come to help, this banquet would not have been possible." Wang Jicai smiled and handed He Yuzhu a cigarette.
Although he was extremely busy today, Wang Jicai was still very pleased.
When holding a funeral in a rural area, the more people who come to eat at the banquet, the more respect it will have.
It would be a real shame if those twenty-odd tables were not full.
When the Wang family held a banquet this time, almost everyone from the village came, including a few from the next village.
The sadness in Wang Jicai's heart was diluted a bit when he thought that the whole village came to see his old man off.
He Yuzhu smiled, said nothing, silently took the cigarette and lit it.
Although he doesn't usually smoke, he was really tired today and had to smoke a cigarette to relieve his fatigue.
When the Wang family brought the steamed buns to the table, the plates on the table were almost empty, leaving only some vegetable soup.
The people who came to the feast were satisfied with their food, but the host's family was starving.
And He Yuzhu, like Wang Jicai and others, was busy from beginning to end and didn't even get a bite to eat.
After smoking, He Yuzhu found Director Yang: "Director, if nothing happens here, I will go back first."
After doing so much work, He Yuzhu also wanted to take a rest.
Director Yang also knew He Yuzhu's hard work and patted his shoulder apologetically: "You go back and rest first. I'll treat you to a drink when you get back."
In today's situation, there is really no way for He Yuzhu to eat. There is nothing left, so we can't let He Yuzhu eat the leftovers, right?
Moreover, He Yuzhu cooked so many dishes by himself, which must be very tiring.
"Xiao Li, send Master He home."
After saying hello to Wang Jicai, He Yuzhu left.
After the guests dispersed, the younger members of the Wang family couldn't bear it any longer.
He poured the leftovers on the table into a bowl and started eating the steamed buns.
"I'm starving to death. I almost fainted from hunger just now."
"Oh, I thought yesterday I would have a good meal today, but who would have thought that so many people came and we didn't even get anything hot to eat."
"Hey, this vegetable soup is so delicious, how delicious is that dish?"
"Are you stupid? Don't you know how to sneak a bite when the food is served? You can't tell if it's less?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at him.
What a bastard, you ate it yourself without saying a word.
"When you're full, go away and don't fight with us."
"Just, just, pour me the food in your bowl!"
"Don't tell me you're not full, but the vegetable soup and steamed buns are really delicious."
The young man who stole the food smiled coquettishly. He also knew that he had made people angry.
...
"It must be Director Yang, he really understands the world!" He Yuzhu, who got off the car, looked at the chicken and elbow in his hand and couldn't help but sigh.
The chicken and elbows were bought by driver Xiao Li from the supply and marketing cooperative.
Including the advanced individuals given by Factory Director Yang, I made a total of 150 yuan, plus a chicken and a big elbow during this trip to the countryside.
He Yuzhu is still very satisfied with this speed of making money.
When he got home, He Yuzhu didn't eat anything and went straight to bed to sleep.
He slept until about six o'clock in the afternoon when He Yuzhu was woken up by someone.
"Brother, I'm back. Didn't you go to work today? Where is my sister-in-law?" He Yuzhu shouted loudly as he walked in with a small schoolbag slung across his body.
He Yuzhu glanced at his fussy sister with some speechlessness, and said angrily: "Your sister-in-law has gone to work in the street."
"Today is not Friday either. Why are you back?"
He Yuyu grinned when he heard this: "The roof of our classroom collapsed, so we have a few days off."
"I met the third uncle when I came back. He drove me back."
"Brother, please get up and cook quickly. I'm starving to death."
He Yuzhu rubbed his eyebrows and sat up from the bed, took out a few candies from his pocket and threw them over.
"Go and give a share to the liberation and reconciliation, and by the way, ask the third uncle to come to our house for dinner tonight."
sugar?
He Yuyu hurriedly took the candy in his hand.
I looked down and counted, only six.
He Yuyu was reluctant at that time. If he shared it, he could only eat two.
"Go quickly, I still have some left. I'll give them to you later."
Hearing that there was still candy to eat, He Yuyu was satisfied and went to the third uncle's house to share the candy.
After a while, Yan Bugui came to He Yuzhu's house with a smile and rubbed his hands.
"Zhuzi, why are you calling me to eat when you're so good?"
"It's okay, I just want to drink something."
In the courtyard, the person with whom he has the best relationship is the third uncle, Yan Bugui. They can maintain their relationship by eating and drinking on weekdays.
Don't think it's useless. If something happens, Yan Bugui will really be on your side.
Yan Bugui glanced at the chicken and big elbows on the table, and swallowed subconsciously.
"Okay, let's have a drink tonight, and I'll get a bottle of good wine tonight."
The good wine Yan Bugui talks about is actually wine without water, which is already a huge expense for him.
At the third uncle's house, the two children, Yan Jiefang and Yan Jiekuang, heard that their father could go to He Yuzhu's house for dinner, and they all clamored to go.
Everyone knows that you can eat meat at He Yuzhu’s house.
However, this proposal was rejected by Yan Bugui.
No matter how hard he calculated, he couldn't drag his whole family to He's house for dinner.
Besides, He Yuzhu was quite nice to him as the third uncle. He was always very polite and would occasionally send fish to their family.
He Yuzhu looked at the chicken and elbows on the table. With a thought, the elbows disappeared out of thin air and were stored in the system space.
Instead there was a pork belly and a lamb rib.
Stewing elbows takes a lot of work, and it's definitely too late to do it now.
After cutting the meat, He Yuzhu took the basin to the yard to clean it.
As soon as he arrived at the pool, He Yuzhu saw Jia Zhang sitting at the door collecting the soles of her shoes.
"Ms. Jia Zhang, has my brother Dongxu gotten off work?"
Mrs. Jia Zhang glared at him angrily: "None of your business!"
She doesn't like He Yuzhu now, but she doesn't dare to offend He Yuzhu openly.
This kid has been very evil lately, and she always suffers in every fight.
He Yuzhu didn't care, he lowered his head to wash things with a smile.
By the time it was dinner time, the courtyard was filled with the aroma of food.
The most prominent one is He Yuzhu’s family.
The aroma of twice-cooked pork, spicy stir-fried chicken, and braised lamb chops is much more overbearing than stewed cabbage and potatoes.
Just when the last dish was out of the pot, the third uncle Yan Bugui came to the banquet with a smile on his face.
Holding a bottle of wine and a bag of peanuts in his hand.
"Zhuzi, I'll trim some peanuts. You can add some oil to serve as a snack."
"Okay, third uncle, you sit down first."
"Yu Yu, stop sitting there stupidly and come and serve the food."
Compared with the happy atmosphere of the He family, the Jia family is a bit depressing.
"Damn He Yuzhu, why don't you invite me to dinner? He must be opportunistic!"
Mrs. Jia Zhang smelled the aroma of meat in the air, looked at the stewed cabbage on the table, and muttered unhappily.
