Courtyard Houses: Starting as a Purchasing Agent

Yi Zhonghai nodded and said, "The child is good-looking, very pretty and young, just over twenty. At first glance, she looks just like Jingru back then!"

After hearing this, everyone had a similar impression.

Qin Jingru chuckled and said, "Oh, Uncle Yi, you're being silly. Why are you talking about me like that?"

'Hahaha……'

Everyone laughed.

Everyone knows that Uncle Yi was joking.

"Hey, Granny Jia, what are you carrying?" Someone with sharp eyes noticed Granny Jia's stingy appearance and quickly asked.

Grandma Jia avoided eye contact and headed into the house.

Qin Jingru grabbed them and said, "Let me see what this is?"

With a strong pull, the lunchbox under Grandma Jia's clothes came out.

boom……

The lunchbox fell to the ground.

Damn it...

The two aluminum lunch boxes stunned everyone.

"No way, Grandma Jia?" Qin Jingru looked incredulous. "You went to arrange your granddaughter's engagement, why did you bring back leftovers?"

"Holy crap... no way!"

"You've embarrassed your in-laws so badly?"

The crowd burst into laughter and chatter.

You should know that, according to the customs of engagement, this meal is paid for by the bride's parents.

But the South brought leftovers.

I don't know if they've been found out yet. If they have, it would be incredibly embarrassing.

"You..." Qin Huairu's face turned ashen with anger.

She never expected that her mother-in-law would still bring her food.

Shame on you!

"Alright, alright!" Yi Zhonghai waved his hand and said, "These are all minor matters. As long as the child agrees to the marriage, that's all that matters. Just wait, we'll be waiting to eat your wedding banquet on May Day!"

"okay!"

Qin Huairu was in a good mood, so she didn't argue with her mother-in-law too much.

Back home, the whole family was very happy.

Only the stick-like creature seemed a little nervous.

"Sigh..." Qin Huairu let out a deep breath and said, "This matter is finally settled. After your brother gets married, Mom will help you two with the arrangements. I won't be at ease until you're both settled down!"

The next month will be dedicated to preparation!

Qin Huairu even went to Liu Aiguo's house and asked to borrow the house from him.

The old lady's house where Lou Xiao'e used to live is now empty. Qin Huairu's intention is to use it as a wedding room for her son.

Liu Aiguo refused without even thinking.

Just then, a neighbor moved out of the front yard, and Liu Aiguo took the opportunity to shoo Qin Jingru and Xu Damao to the front yard.

Now, only he and Uncle Er's family remain in the entire backyard.

Liu Aiguo wanted to have his backyard all to himself, to renovate it nicely and turn it into his own little garden. Wouldn't that be wonderful?

For Qin Huairu?

Stop daydreaming!

The following days passed uneventfully.

While ensuring the production of television sets, Liu Aiguo also focused on his motorcycle business.

The motorcycle production line is already bustling with activity, and some complete motorcycles have even rolled off the line. Unfortunately, some testing work has not yet been completed, and the necessary licenses and permits are not in place, so the motorcycles cannot be launched on the market.

But it's fast too.

There shouldn't be any major problems after two months.

Before we knew it, another month had passed.

May Day is here, and Banggeng is getting married.

This time, Lou Xiao'e wasn't stingy; she personally drove her Mercedes-Benz to pick up Banggeng's wife from the countryside.

Qin Huairu didn't have many relatives, and even fewer people came to visit, so their wedding banquet was held in a courtyard house.

The food wasn't ordered from a restaurant; it was cooked by myself.

That's right!

Qin Huairu personally cooked the meal the day before the wedding banquet, together with several of the shop's workers.

The next day at the wedding, they just reheated it and served it.

Everyone in the courtyard came to support them.

Even Liu Aiguo gave a ten-yuan gift.

The bride is quite beautiful, just as Uncle Yi said, she's comparable to Qin Jingru from twenty years ago.

She was radiant, had a great figure, and fair skin.

That's more than enough to be considered a great joke.

I don't know his specific personality yet.

"It's time to eat, it's time to eat!"

With a loud shout from Uncle Yi, the person in charge, the wedding banquet began.

Liu Guangfu, Liu Guangtian, Yan Jiekuang and several others were responsible for serving the dishes.

In times of crisis, you still have to rely on your neighbors.

The dishes were served one by one.

But Liu Aiguo laughed: This dish is really interesting.

·· ········Requesting flowers· ·····

Cucumber salad!

Cold noodles with salad!

Peanuts with fried pork cracklings!

Stir-fried eggs with scallions.

Four vegetarian dishes were served first.

This dish would have been quite good in the 1960s, more than a decade ago, but the fact that four vegetarian dishes were served first made me think that the host had a low social standing.

You should know that today's guests aren't all neighbors from the compound.

The neighbors don't care; they all know that the Jia family is stingy.

Besides the neighbors, there were also the woman's family members. Her parents didn't come, but her siblings, nephews, nieces, and other relatives were all there.

So when the bride saw the dishes served, her face immediately darkened.

These days, people value four essential items.

Whole chicken, whole fish, braised pork knuckle, and lamb chops.

These four dishes are essential, and they are usually the four main dishes served at the beginning of a meal.

.... . 0

After these four main dishes are served, it doesn't matter if you slowly have some cold beef, cold dishes, or vegetarian dishes.

After all, with four major components supporting the facade, the appearance can't be too low.

Even in rural areas, if a wedding is not held without the four major traditional items, at the very least a whole chicken and a whole fish are indispensable.

but!

The Jia family doesn't have any.

Everyone thinks there might be a mistake, but wait, it will definitely be there soon.

But nothing happened after a while.

Next came stir-fried celery with shredded pork, cold lotus root slices, fried meatballs, and stir-fried pork with green peppers.

The absolute best dish is cold sliced ​​beef.

The woman's family immediately objected.

Although it wasn't said explicitly, the uproar was so loud that Qin Huairu's family immediately lost face.
