Chapter 287 The Purpose of the Ding Family

The gates of the city were closed at seven o'clock, and the speed of the horses reached forty miles per hour. That is to say, it would take at most one and a half hours for these horseback riders to return to the city.

04:30 Stir-fry, dinner around [-] o'clock, leave after eating, perfect!

The old hen is difficult to cook, and it can only be chewed after more than an hour of high heat. Fortunately, the focus of this bowl of chicken soup boiled with chicken fir is not meat.

When Ding Xuewei stewed the braised rabbit meat, steamed the oil-soaked meat with the moisture in the rabbit meat, and the big pot on one side could also serve chicken fir, and when the two big dishes were ready to be cooked, the rest It's already on the table.

Mushrooms and chicken offal were copied by her, pumpkin and pea rice were made by Wang's, dried beef and cowhide were fried by Li's, scrambled eggs with wild onions were also made by her, and the rest of the cold salad was made by Xiao Li.

The meal was ready but no one came back, Ding Xuewei hurriedly sent someone to shout, it took Xia Li a lot of time to go and come, and it was almost six o'clock when the meal started.

Ding Xue thought slightly, people are not in a hurry, there should be a way to enter the city after seven o'clock, or if they don't plan to enter the city, they didn't rush, and this busy, when will the wind blow, when will the sun be blocked by clouds Yes, no one noticed.

"咵啪~~"

Bright white lightning pierced the sky, and there was a thunderclap.

All the people who were concentrating on eating with their bowls in hand were all shocked and frightened by this bright light.

"It's going to rain~"

Wen Jing broke the silence with a rather excited sentence.

Heavy rain keeps people away.

Youyou turned her head, her gaze fell on Wen Jing's excited yet compulsively calm and dignified face, and the sentence that even a toad wants to eat swan meat came to mind.

It wasn't until old man Ding and his group came back that Ding Xuewei finally understood that the Ding family's arrival today was not for a good meal.

Mrs. Li is here to pick a son-in-law, Wen Jing is here to pick a husband-in-law, Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Li are here to please their future brother-in-law, and Mrs. Ding is here to prevent their mother and sister from embarrassing themselves.

After old man Ding and his group came back, the female family members of the Ding family were extremely enthusiastic, and Wen Jing, she also carefully looked back and forth at the few young men, and finally, she fell on the one who was dressed more luxuriously and extravagantly than the other three. On Li Hongbao.

It is not surprising that Wen Jing, who is in her early twenties and turned 13 years old, is a big girl in this world where she can be a mother when she is sixteen or seventeen. It's normal to be anxious about your daughter's lifelong happiness and be positive.

But this mother and daughter even dare to think extravagantly among the top families in Fengcheng Mansion, so they are a little confused.

Not to mention, they locked their eyes on the young master, the richest man in Fengcheng Mansion!

"Wen Jing, sit here."

Smiling with her aunt in her mouth, Mrs. Li patted the other end of the bench and shouted for someone.

Wen Jing glanced shyly and timidly at the figure with her back at the other table, and finally, blushing, sat next to Mrs. Li.

None of these young boys were low-key and gentle, and among them, Li Hongbao was the most.

If it weren't for An He's knowledgeableness, and he sat on the same bench with him, old man Ding or the village chief would definitely be yelled at by him without any face.

Wen Jing wanted to be closer to him, but it was impossible to be at the same table with him, so it was interesting for Mrs. Li to pat that bench.

Two similar tables, one west and one south.

Li Hongbao is in the west, Wen Jing is in the south, as long as she raises her eyes, Wen Jing can catch Li Hongbao's profile in her eyes!

From approaching to sitting down, the little girl had glanced several times, and her entire face was flushed.

"Xuewei, come here."

Mrs. Li followed the arrangement.

Ding Xuewei was originally standing next to Xiao Li, but when she shouted, she had to change seats with Wang and walked to Li's side.

A table, eight seats, Wang's mother and daughter a bench, Xiao Li and Wen Jing are on one side, Li and Wanyi are together, and she is alone.

Sitting comfortably is worse than eating full, Ding Xuewei quite likes it.

"Let's have dinner."

After the men's table started, Li said in a low voice.

Food does not speak, in a world without wine table and table culture, eating is really not a bother, except for the sound of chopsticks colliding with dishes, slight chewing sound, there is no other sound, even a few teenagers can amaze chicken fir fungus Arrived, but no one opened their mouths to ask.

"Boom~"

There was another thunderclap, Ding Xuewei withdrew her gaze from looking directly at Wen Jing, and turned to look behind her at An He.

Coincidentally, An He also withdrew his gaze from looking at the distant sky.

"The conditions in the village are not as good as those of other villages, but it doesn't affect the rest. I wonder if I will have the good fortune to greet some young masters today?"

Strong winds, dark clouds gathered in the sky, lightning flashes and thunder, but based on the experience of heavy rain in the previous two times, it may take another few days for the rain to fall today.

A few days is not something they are willing to settle for.

"Today is enough to bother Mr. An, Zhuangzi is not far from here, so I won't bother you much." Wan Qianchen, who is a little bit better-tempered, replied after looking at his companion's face.

This means that there is no need to prepare a residence for them.

Halfway through the meal, the dishes on the table were quite attractive, and the rapidly gathering clouds were at a high level. Although the lightning and thunder were dense, there was a tendency to shake in the air. The rain would not come down for a while, and the children did not rush to get up.

The second-generation ancestors, who guessed that they would not be drenched in the rain after eating enough, continued to eat on the ground, but Ding Xuewei couldn't sit still. After putting the food in the bowl into his mouth, he rested the bowl and stood up.

"Everyone hasn't eaten well yet." Mrs. Li said in a low voice warningly.

Ding Xue, who was full of worries about whether the mat was enough, didn't notice.

So, when she was about to turn around, Mrs. Li grabbed her.

"How can you be so rude and still hold a bowl!"

Ding Xuewei, who just wanted to save the harvest of rice seedlings, became the target of public criticism.

"Xuewei, why are you like this?!" Wen Jing, who was holding half a bowl of rice, was about to cry, misty.

Ding Xuewei was so blamed that she was full of black lines: this is the time to pay attention to who eats more and who eats less?
Theoretically speaking, those who serve the table at the same time and rest their bowls first eat less. I heard from the villagers that in order to take care of the little girl and the daughter-in-law's face, the women will deliberately eat slowly when they are eating, so that their colleagues can eat more slowly. Ladies and daughters-in-law, let's take a break first.

After traveling for so long, I haven't had a feast yet. When I was at Ding's house, Li's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law wished that their siblings would not eat, so how could they be held at the dinner table.

After that, she had a lot of things to do, and someday she would eat and work in a hurry!
"Grandma, eat slowly, I have something to do." Resisting the urge to roll her eyes, Ding Xuewei patiently explained.

Mrs. Li can pull her hand, how can someone with understanding ability do it.

I saw her staring at herself in warning, and increased her strength in her hands: "What can be greater than eating?"

It doesn't matter whether you eat or not, the important thing is to sit down for her daughter.

Ding Xuewei really had the urge to dump her.

"Get busy."

Old man Ding's deep and hoarse voice sounded from one side.

Li Shi, who had been ignored by him for a long time, flickered, and finally let Ding Xuewei go.

Ding Xuewei, who was not so anxious at first, immediately yelled: "Uncle Xia, go ahead and see how many mats are there, Uncle Zhang, go to the bamboo forest opposite the village and call everyone."

The second-generation ancestors each brought two servants, Zhang Qun, and Xia Li were not surprised, and the companions were handed over to Chen Yun, and there was nothing serious about them leaving the table.

However, as soon as her extremely anxious voice came out, not only the two people who had been called stood up with their bowls, but everyone on one side of the table also paused at the same time.

 Daily shout, ask for tickets, ask for collection...
