Power Farmer

Chapter 172

During the bath, everyone was making a lot of noise in order to grab the bathroom. Fortunately, the sound insulation of this house is good, and Zhao Senyang and Zhao Lingqi will not be affected much if they stay in their own room.

After taking a shower and washing their clothes, the girls took off their makeup for maintenance, and the men began to gather in the small living room on the second floor, chatting and blowing water.

Although when we were in the imperial capital, everyone would often hold a party or something, but it is rare to have such an atmosphere like now!When I came to this village, I felt that everything was very novel. Everyone talked about sex, not to mention that Wei Jingze was very considerate and brought everyone cold beer and cold cola. Everyone can drink while drinking, and the atmosphere is very good. surprisingly.

Wei Jingze was busy with Master Yingqi, and he couldn't stop tomorrow. Wei Jingze had confirmed the ingredients and the like, and some of them would be ready tomorrow. It would take several hours to cook the stewed pig's trotters and so on. If it is done well, it must be done in advance.

After working for a long time, Wei Jingze came upstairs, took a shower, and found that the outside was still very lively, so he asked Jiang Yanzong, "Should we just let them chat outside? Do you want to urge them to go to bed?"

Jiang Yanzong said: "Whoever they are, they are all adults, and they can take care of themselves."

Wei Jingze felt the same when he thought about it. After urging others to sleep, his parents and daughter-in-law should not be too troublesome.

Wei Jingze himself had a lot of things to do, and it was impossible for him to stay with those people all the time, so he made the bed and dragged Jiang Yanzong to sleep. Wei Jingze was busy with the banquet, and Jiang Yanzong didn't take much rest, because he hadn't found him yet. For a proper accountant, Jiang Yanzong still needs to do many things by himself.

I don't know how late those people stayed up. Anyway, when Wei Jingze got up, there was no movement upstairs.

When they went downstairs, Master Yingqi greeted him, "Hurry up and have breakfast, otherwise there will be no leftover soup when those people come together."

Wei Jingze thought about their posture last night, and felt that this was indeed the case, so he hurriedly pulled Jiang Yanzong to sit down for dinner.

The morning sun shines in through the floor-to-ceiling windows, making it another beautiful day.

Wei Jingze had just eaten, Zhao Senyang pushed Zhao Lingqi in, the two of them were not as polite as when they first came, Zhao Senyang took the initiative to bring food.

When there were not many people in the past, it was usually Chef Yingqi who decided what to eat in the morning, either noodles, rice noodles, steamed buns, etc., served with porridge and pickles, and sometimes fried dough sticks. Yes, everything is working today. There is everything, like a buffet, even bread and milk. Of course, these are bought from outside. Master Yingqi is not in the mood to bake bread early in the morning, but The bread was toasted a bit in the toaster and it still tasted good.

While everyone was eating, people from upstairs began to come down, saying, "It smells so good! I can smell the smell of bread!"

"It must have smelled wrong, where is the time to bake bread?"

Unexpectedly, these people got up quite early. Wei Jingze admired them a little, probably because they could smell the aroma of breakfast.

The rush to the bathroom and washstand in the morning is not as intense as the rush to the bathroom yesterday. The washing time does not need to be very long. The girls mainly need to put on makeup and so on.

The only bad thing is that after other people squat in the toilet, the one behind goes in, oops, the smell is too intoxicating.

The people who came down were not polite, and took what they wanted to eat. Anyway, there were eggs, milk, noodles and the like, and even coffee, but it was not directly ground from the coffee beans they usually drink, but instant coffee. , but there is no way, I can only make do with it, no one has the thought to grind coffee early in the morning.

This restaurant is also big enough to accommodate so many people eating together at the same time. There are not enough chairs, so it's enough to move one to squeeze.

Chef Yingqi’s craftsmanship makes it difficult for everyone to choose. Whether it’s porridge, noodles, or steamed buns, they are all very well maintained, which can offset the bad things that the bread is not freshly baked and the coffee is not freshly ground. out of place.

After breakfast, those people thought about going out to play today. There is no time to play tomorrow, and tomorrow is the banquet time. After the banquet is over, some people will go back to the imperial capital.

Although many people would like to stay here, living here, eating and drinking every day, it is very comfortable, but they all have reasons to go back.

After the group of people left, the house became a lot cleaner. Sure enough, when there are many people, there is no quiet time for chattering!

Wei Jingze was very busy this day, so he didn't even plan to go out, so he just had to prepare the ingredients.

I have already borrowed some of the tables, and the rest will be delivered in the afternoon. The tobacco, alcohol, beverages, candy, and peanut melon seeds and tea cups are all ready. In the evening, Wei Jingze will go to someone else’s house to borrow a hot water bottle, which costs more than 20 yuan. A hot water pot, with a stove to boil water continuously, to ensure the supply of tea.

Nowadays, many people in the countryside choose to use disposable bowls and chopsticks for banquets. Wei Jingze weighed it and decided not to use disposable bowls and chopsticks. Disposable bowls and chopsticks are certainly very convenient, but what to do after they are used up?It's not good to throw it anywhere. The village can only rely on green and healthy food to get the current market. If it can't be protected, it's hard to say what will happen in the future.

Wei Jingze had gone to the porcelain market to buy a lot of rice bowls and vegetables, and when he came back, he had already washed them and put them neatly in the box. Although Wei Jingze's family might only use them a few times, they were used for weddings in the village. There are many times, everyone can borrow it, and the village does not need to buy disposable bowls and chopsticks.

There are more than a dozen banquets held in the village every year. There are weddings and funerals. At the beginning of the year and the end of the year, marriage is the main event. Usually, there are things like childbirth and congratulations on the new house. Funeral events are funerals, which are more energy-intensive than ordinary banquets.

On this day, Wei Jingze went to Pan Wang's house and brought back hundreds of catties of tofu and bean curds that had already been ordered, and soaked them in water.

Chickens and ducks also have to be killed and processed today, and they can be cooked directly tomorrow.

Three pigs were killed a few days ago, and the meat has been divided into several catties, so the chefs can take it directly when they need it.

In addition, Wei Jingze has to go to his river to catch fish, soak glutinous rice in the evening, and use it to make steamed meatballs tomorrow.

Thinking about it this way, I really didn't have to rest all day.

The few young apprentices sent by Chen Han are quite capable, or it may be because they want to perform well in front of the master, so they work extraordinarily diligently, run errands extra diligently, and even cut vegetables extraordinarily beautifully.

In fact, these apprentices sent by Chen Han are usually optimistic about him. Master Yingqi has no apprentices now, and when outsiders can rarely see him cooking, these apprentices are by his side preparing for this banquet. The opportunity to learn, if you can learn a thing or two, will definitely benefit you endlessly in the future.

Wei Jingze only ate two mouthfuls during his busy meal, and continued to work in the afternoon.

Jiang Yanzong hurriedly found Wei Jingze, took the phone and said to him: "Xiao Ze, I'm afraid we have to add a few tables tomorrow."

Wei Jingze asked, "What's wrong?"

Jiang Yanzong said: "Just now the old men and women in the nursing home called me and asked me if I would celebrate the new house tomorrow. Come over for a feast."

Wei Jingze was stunned for a moment, but thinking about it, those old men and women often came to the village when they were free, and sometimes they would eat food, so he probably didn't regard their family as outsiders psychologically. Wei Jing Ze is because of their special identities, and they don't want to get too close to let people say that he is taking advantage of the old man, seeking relationships or something.

"Then I'm preparing a few tables. It just so happens that we have prepared more dishes, chopsticks, tables and chairs, so I'm not afraid."

Jiang Yanzong breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good, I'm still worried that they won't be able to serve the table when they come!"

In fact, people like the old man who have hosted many banquets still know how to grasp the number of guests. Some experience is also very useful. If so, one dish can even out several bowls!Wouldn't it be able to support a few tables of guests?If the number of guests is less than expected, then the bowls should be full. Anyway, the custom here is that you can take it home without finishing the banquet, and there will be no waste.

As for the one-table fish, it’s okay to prepare more. If you can’t finish it at home, you can give some to your neighbors or close relatives, and you can finish it.

The old man is very happy about this, because the more people come, the better it is, which indicates that the house will be more prosperous in the future and the future will be better.

Except for this one incident, other things are proceeding in an orderly manner according to the plan.

Although Master Yingqi has no experience in hosting rural banquets, he has also worked as the head chef of a big hotel. He knows how to direct the people in the kitchen and what things need to be prepared in advance.

Although Chen Han didn't work at home this day, he will come back to work tomorrow.

Despite being so busy, the preparation time for the last day finally passed. In the evening, when Wei Jingze was busy at home, the old man went for a stroll around the village and visited various houses, mainly to check whether the person who will help tomorrow is still available. help.

There are two types of helpers, one is the one who helps the kitchen before the meal and helps pass the dishes after the meal, and the other is the woman who helps make tea and serve melon seeds and peanuts.

Guests come to the door one after another, unlike the banquets in the city, they go directly to the hotel, and then sit according to the different seats. If they come early, they have to serve tea and water to relieve their boredom. Of course, acquaintances They also get together to chat and things like that.

Tomorrow's banquet, in addition to the large stoves in the kitchen, it is estimated that there will be a few stoves outside. Before Chen Han's barbecue stove can be used, it will be used for cooking.

The old man went out for several hours before he came back. After confirming the person who could help, Wei Jingze was almost busy at home, so he went to bed while he had time, and when he got up early tomorrow morning, the real scene would be The tough battle has begun.
