Chapter 65 Shangliang Banquet ([-])
Su Jinman sneered in her heart, but her face still looked calm.

"We can't catch up with my elder brother's academic attainments. We can only build a simple house to shelter from the wind and rain. It doesn't have much promise. It's rare for two distinguished guests to come today. If there is a place where the greetings are not good, please invite two Your honored guest, Haihan."

Seeing Su Jinman's manner of advance and retreat, several people were stunned. Li Zheng was the first to react. He thought in his heart that although Mr. Chen left without saying goodbye, everything was arranged and he behaved well. It looks like a rich family, looking at Su Jinman's outstanding face, I feel that this girl is not a good in the pool, and the main thing is to make friends.

"Miss Su, why should she be self-effacing? Being able to build such a few exquisite houses is not as good as enough. It's not bad."

With Li Zheng's words, everyone present envied Su Jinman.

Especially Mrs. Zheng and Mrs. Liu who were standing in the crowd. Mrs. Zheng rolled her eyes and said to Mrs. Liu: "When Shiqing is admitted to the examination of a scholar, I will also build these few brick houses and see what they can be proud of." of."

"Yes, yes, yes, then I am waiting to enjoy the blessings with my sister-in-law." Mrs. Liu said flattering words in her mouth, but she was contemptuous in her heart. The scholar's share of money can only be eaten, and the real benefits can be avoided. With the tax money in the land, the family can be richer in food, and if such a house can be built, it is only a matter of time.
Su Sanlang also came back at this time, and Su Jinman didn't want Su Dalang to take away all the glory, so she arranged Su Sanlang to be at the same table with Lizheng and the village chief.

It didn't take long for the few people to talk, when the auspicious time arrived, joss sticks had already been placed on Liang Qian's desk, and the table was filled with fruits, Li Zheng was naturally invited to deliver the speech.

It was not the first time to do this kind of work, and he stood up and began to talk eloquently.

When Lizheng finished speaking, the sacrifice was about to begin. At this time, Li Dashan, as the protagonist of the upper beam, naturally had a few words to say.

"Holding a hammer to square the four corners, Luban allowed me to go to the main beam; when the golden dragon ascended the throne and Ziwei arrived, Ziwei ordered me to beat the hammer. One dozen golden rooster crows, two dozen dragon head lifting, three dozen champions, four dozen big fortunes, five dozen five sons After entering the imperial examination, six dozen things will go smoothly, seven dozen will marry brides, eight dozen eight immortals will arrive, nine dozen birthday stars will smile, and ten dozen masters will be rich."

As soon as the words fell, Li Dashan led a few young men, and a thick and long beam was lifted under the high roof under the joint efforts of everyone.After the candy bag hanging on the beam was stabilized, Su Sanlang tore off the tied rope, and the children in the village came forward to grab the candy, and it was very lively for a while.

After the bustle, it was getting late, and it was time for the women who had been busy all morning to show the fruits of their labor.

After Su Jinman talked to Li Zheng and the village chief, he went to the kitchen and told them that it was time for the feast.

Not long after she went in, delicious dishes came out one after another. After all, the dishes in her family are very hard. The oily white pork belly dazzles people's eyes. Saliva, shouted good.

Grandpa Su and Su Dalang greeted each other with smiles on their faces, as if the house belonged to them, and Su Sanlang followed them with a smiling face, which seemed awkward no matter how you looked at it.

Su Jinman wanted to say a few words. Thinking of Su Sanlang's honest and stupid appearance, she also felt distressed. After all, this is not his strong point. There is no need to force it. Today is a good day, and she doesn't want to make trouble on such a festive day. Feeling a little unhappy, so I dismissed the idea and turned around to get busy.

There was a jug of wine for each table, and when the wine was served, it was said that if it was not enough, more vegetable wine could be added, because Su Jinman bought a pig.

Because Lizheng and the village head were there, pig ears were only served on this table, and the rest were served with pig head meat. However, because of such thick oil and water, the young and old in the village didn't mind, and all stared at their own table. I am afraid that I will miss a bite of the meat.

After drinking for three rounds, people are more relaxed and the scene is more lively. You can hear the drinking order everywhere you go, the sound of children fighting for meat, laughing around the table, and talking and chatting sound.

On the other hand, at Lizheng's table, everyone has their own little ones, and those who have different thoughts, except Su Sanlang who is honest, you have to turn around to listen to what other people say.

After Su Jinman took the time to toast Li Zheng and the village chief, she went to work. After all, the back kitchen is not manned enough, so Su Cuilan can't be counted on. She is the owner's house anyway. She doesn't want to have such a good atmosphere because of other things. Things are spoiled.

Originally, Li Zheng and the village chief didn't come here for this meal, and they didn't like Mr. Su at all. Su Sanlang, who liked him, was a gourd with a sawn mouth. After a few words, he felt really bored and ate casually. After something, I got up and said goodbye.

Su Jinman knew that they wanted to talk to her, but they all talked about Chen Fan, which annoyed her very much. Since he was leaving, she felt that there was no need to stay.

After sending people to the door with a smile, she didn't go back until they had gone a long way.

The villagers also began to say goodbye one after another, and Su Sanlang naturally stood at the door to see off the guests.

When all the people in the village had left, Su Jinman felt that his leg was about to break. Although he didn't go far, the dozens of times of going in and out were still very exhausting.

The women who helped in the kitchen came out to help clean up after seeing that the guests had left. Although there was nothing left on the table, the empty plates still had to be cleaned. These were all borrowed and returned.

After sending the last stack of plates to the kitchen, Su Jinman looked at them and asked, "Aunts, have you all eaten?"

Aunt Qionghua answered the call and answered the call for them. Here she is most familiar with Su Jinman.

"I've been so busy, how can I find time to eat? There are no dishes outside, right?"

"It's gone, then you all set up a table here quickly, and you can eat whatever you want. Would you like some wine?"

"Then you bring the pot over here, we sisters can eat something here after we finish our work?"

"Well, mother, you can take good care of your aunts, don't worry about me, it's rare for you to be happy, eat and drink well, and I will take care of you outside."

"Go ahead, I'm here." Zhao Xiuhe said with a smile.

"Mother, take some of these dishes home with the aunts later; the aunts have had a hard day today, this is my little red envelope, thank you all aunts."

After Su Jinman finished speaking, he also took out a stack of copper coins wrapped in red paper from his arms, and five copper coins were wrapped in each red paper, which made everyone present reject it.

"Why are you so polite, even eating and taking, how can you embarrass the aunts?"

"That's right, don't break the rules."

"We've eaten so well, and we still take something, that's really a pity."

It was Zhao Xiuhe who smiled and took them and stuffed them into the hands of the old sisters one by one.

"Okay, you all take it, and now we are all happy. In the past, you helped me a lot, and I didn't have the ability to repay you. Now that my daughter is promising, it is rare to have such an opportunity. Give me a reward." Your chance."

Su Jinman walked out of the kitchen with a smile, and walked under the beam of the main room, sighing in her heart that she finally had her own house.
