Chapter 96 Be happy, marry me soon (3)
"Yes, there are so many of us, and we eat together in front of everyone, and we are not alone, so we are afraid they will say it? Don't those daughters-in-law eat at the same table with their uncles and grandchildren?" Mu Wen Hong Road.

"That's right!" Gu Xiaobei nodded, followed Mu Wenhong to the right side of the yard to find an empty table.

Bai Qingli curled her lips and followed.

Because of the banquet, the Mu family borrowed some large tables from various households in the village and put them in the yard. When they needed the tables, they took them directly.Since some relatives do not come to eat bowls and only come to have a formal banquet tomorrow, there are still many empty tables left in the evening.Mu Wenhong found an empty table and opened it in the corner of the yard, and then asked Bai Qingli and Gu Xiaobei to sit down at the table first, while she went to the kitchen to find someone to serve some food.

After Gu Xiaobei sat down, he hugged Xiaobao and started teasing him, until he made the crying little boy laugh, then Gu Xiaobei took off Xiaobao's clothes and carefully checked his condition.

Bai Qingli sat at the side and watched Gu Xiaobei tease Xiaobao leisurely, a rippling in his heart, this scene was so warm, it made him seem to see the future, the anticipation in his heart became stronger, and he was thinking about how to let her Marry her immediately after Jiji.

When he saw that Xiaobao's body was covered with redness and swelling except his hands, Bai Qingli's eyes instantly turned cold: "Who did this?"

"Sun Lan!" Gu Xiaobei said indifferently, stretching out his hand to caress those red swellings distressedly, Xiaobao shuddered suddenly, and Gu Xiaobei's heart was twisted into a ball. If I knew it, it would not only be as simple as letting my brother scare Sun Lan, but I should have done it. Give her a break, you wicked woman!
"I have medicine to eliminate redness at home, I'll get it when I go back." Bai Qingli stood up and said.

Gu Xiaobei nodded, and Bai Qingli quickly ran home, and not long after, he brought some medicinal powder and lightly applied it to Xiaobao.After giving Xiaobao the good medicine, Gu Xiaobei carefully dressed Xiaobao and held him in his arms with distress.

At this time, Mu Wenhong also asked people to bring up the dishes. In the countryside, even if you have a wedding wine, the dishes are relatively simple. Tomorrow's formal banquet will be better, but tonight's dishes are even simpler. A sliced ​​meat fried green pepper, One with minced meat fried with cabbage, one with minced meat with sauerkraut, and one with shredded pork with leeks soup. There are four simple dishes in total.

"The dishes are a little short, please give us a letter of guarantee. I wanted to take an extra dish, but I was stopped by the kitchen staff." Mu Wenhong said a little embarrassedly. She went to Gu Xiaobei's house to eat a few times, and knew that their house ate It was much better than these, fearing that she would dislike it, he hurriedly explained.

Although she is a girl from the Mu family, the dishes for the banquet have already been prepared, and the people in the kitchen must serve the guests according to the rules. They lose face as cooks, so when Mu Wenhong wanted to add more food, the kitchen staff stopped her.

"This is already very good. Our family didn't even have to put oil in the past." Gu Xiaobei said with a smile. I didn't have to put any oil on, and I was wearing clothes that were patched everywhere.

Comparing the poverty in the past and the affluence of the present, Gu Xiaobei felt very emotional. If he wanted to live a better life than others, he still had to do some business. , then their lives are definitely not as good as they are now.

"What are you thinking? Eat quickly!" Seeing that Gu Xiaobei was in a daze and Mu Wenhong was embarrassed, Bai Qingli hurriedly called Gu Xiaobei to eat.

"Ah! I'm sorry, I'm a little lost in thought when I think about the past." Gu Xiaobei came back to his senses and hurriedly apologized to Mu Wenhong.

"It's okay, let's start eating." Mu Wenhong smiled and shook her head.

Gu Xiaobei nodded, picked up a piece of meat and tore it into small pieces to feed Xiaobao. Seeing that Xiaobao couldn't eat enough, she put the remaining half of the meat into her mouth, but just after chewing, she suddenly slowed down. The speed of chewing was slowed down, and after eating the half piece of meat, she immediately eagerly took a few more mouthfuls.

Bai Qingli was dumbfounded, and couldn't help saying: "How long have you not eaten? Why are you reincarnated like a starving ghost?"

"You are the reincarnation of the starving ghost!" Gu Xiaobei rolled his eyes at him, looked at the sliced ​​meat on the plate with some surprise and said: "This meat tastes very sweet and not greasy, and it also has a fresh taste. The quality of the meat is very good! It is much more delicious than the pork bought in the county, so I couldn't help but taste a few more bites."

Seeing what Gu Xiaobei said, Bai Qingli also picked up a piece of meat and tasted it carefully, then nodded in agreement and said: "It is indeed better than the pork bought in the county!"

"Wenhong, is this your own pig?" Gu Xiaobei asked hastily, the cooking method of these pork is ordinary, the reason why it is delicious must not be that the people in the kitchen cook well, but the problem of the pork itself.Gu Xiaobei's family doesn't raise pigs, and the pork she ate recently was bought from the streets of the county, so she doesn't know what these pigs eat, but since this pork is so delicious, she has to ask clearly, maybe this pork appears It will be very popular in restaurants.

Mu Wenhong said: "Yes, these pigs are all raised by our own family. Originally, my family only raised one pig every year, but this year I specially raised two pigs for my elder brother's wedding banquet. These two pigs are not enough. I borrowed a big pig from Uncle Niu’s family in the village for this banquet, and we will return it to their family when someone in their family needs to use it when they get married.”

It turns out that the rural people are poor, and they don’t have that much money to buy banquets, and they don’t even have that much money to buy so much pork for banquets. However, almost every family in the village has pigs, so if there is not enough pigs for wedding banquets, they will raise them with others. The pigs are borrowed from the family to make up enough pork for the banquet, and then return the pigs raised by the family when the family has a wedding banquet in the future.In this way, a lot of money can be saved, and the remaining chicken, duck, fish and vegetables will not cost too much money, so even if the rural people do not have enough money, they can hold a very beautiful banquet.

"What do the pig farmers in the village feed? Do they feed anything special?" Gu Xiaobei continued to ask.

"Just feed some rice bran and pigweed, nothing special." Mu Wenhong didn't know why Gu Xiaobei asked these questions, but Gu Xiaobei got along well with her, so she would answer everything Gu Xiaobei wanted to know.

Gu Xiaobei nodded, it seems that it might appear on the feeding food.

The chef of the restaurant, Chen Jiu, also raised a lot of pigs at home. He even took the leftovers from the restaurant to feed them back. The pork sold has the same taste, and it is not as delicious as the pork in the countryside.
