Chapter 666 Tian Shao's Wedding Banquet
On the day of Tian Shao's engagement, the eldest aunt and sister-in-law Li came to help early. As for Uncle Li, he took Li Erkui to work on the pig's head and pig's tail, and he would not come over until he was done.
After breakfast, Tian Erlin and Tian Sanlin also came to help. Tian Shao saw that Tian Dalin and Li Guihua didn't chase him away, although he didn't hate Tian Erlin very much, he didn't care. Although the two families had conflicts, the elders chose to forgive, and she would not interfere as a junior. Li Chunhua and his wife came last because they were far away.
At eight o'clock, Uncle Li came over with Uncle Li and his wife.
Tian Shao's face sank when he saw the couple, but it's not good to quarrel on such a festive day as engagement. She didn't say anything, turned and went back to the house.
After a while, the eldest aunt came over, and she said, "Da Ya, it wasn't your uncle who brought them here. They knew that you didn't want to see them and were afraid of being driven away, so they deliberately followed Uncle Ni."
Tian Shao knew what the two of them were planning, and said, "It's okay, just come if you want, just don't show up in front of me and Pei Yue."
"I'll keep an eye on them later, and don't allow them to join Comrade Pei and his future in-laws and aunts."
Tian Shao hummed and said: "Auntie, I heard from Liuya that they always go to your house? Is it because of the recipe?"
The aunt nodded and said: "Yes, it is said that the formula is left by the old man, and our family can't monopolize it. Back then, the old man asked him to learn it because he didn't want to learn it himself. Now that we are making money, we are ashamed to say that the formula belongs to our ancestors. He also has a share." .”
"What did uncle say?"
The eldest aunt sighed and said: "Your uncle is unwilling to give it, but your grandma is not in good health now. If she has a falling out with the second child's family, she will definitely not be able to bear it. But now the family is also short of money. Your uncle I made an agreement with him to teach Shi Sheng in three years. They were afraid that your uncle would turn his face, so they agreed."
"Will Uncle really teach in three years' time?"
The eldest aunt said helplessly: "You don't know what kind of temperament your uncle is? He has always been spitting and nailing, and he promised to teach when the time comes. Forget it, for your grandma's sake, just teach me!"
Grandma Li has treated the eldest aunt like a daughter all these years, and has never said a few serious words to her. The same is true, even though she has always favored the second child in the past few years, the eldest aunt has never complained.
Tian Shao said: "It's just a recipe for pork head meat, so it's okay to give it to them. But don't teach the recipe you researched yourself, and they won't be grateful to you if you teach it."
Evil bamboo can produce good shoots, and this is true. For example, Tian Dali, the boss of Tian Erlin's family, will help out when he sees children in the village bullying Sanya and the others, which is relatively good. But Uncle Li's three sons always felt that the sisters would steal their food when they were young, and treated them very badly.
The eldest aunt said: "Your uncle also said so."
After talking about her family, the eldest aunt asked: "Xiao Shao, your mother said that Xiao Pei's uncle and aunt are big cadres. I asked her what unit she worked for, and she didn't know."
Tian Shao said with a smile: "Uncle is mainly responsible for arresting bad elements who sneak in from outside, and aunt is in charge of film and television culture. For example, the movies we watch can only be shown after the approval of her unit."
This unit is not very popular now, but it will become popular after more than ten years.
The aunt thought secretly, she really is a big cadre.
Pei Yue accompanied Luo Yamei over ten o'clock. This time Pei Yue changed into a short-sleeved military uniform, very handsome. Tian Shao is wearing a red dress today with light makeup on.
Tian Shao showed a shy smile.
After a while, the second uncle came over supported by his son. What Tian Shao didn't expect was that the second uncle came rushing to Luo Yamei this time. After greeting Luo Yamei, he said to Luo Yamei: "Leader, our commune was electrified the year before last, and the commune is only a few meters away from our village. No matter how far away it is, there will be no electricity. I went to the commune to report to the county many times, but no one cares. Comrade Luo, I also hope that you can help us tell the county leaders that we can connect to electricity in our village. "
The room was silent for a moment.
Luo Yamei was a little surprised, but she was very educated, and asked softly: "Old man, there is no electricity in the village. Is there some difficulty in the commune?"
Second Uncle said: "The county leaders and the commune both said that there is no money, and there is no way to provide electricity to the village."
Li Guihua was so angry that Da Ya's engagement banquet was so messed up, what would her in-laws and aunt think about them.
Although Tian Shao felt that the second uncle's behavior was inappropriate, he was not angry. The second uncle is such a person, and he hopes that the people of the clan and the villagers will live well. Furthermore, it is convenient for her house to turn on the lights.
If you want to electrify, you must not only electrify Tianjia Village, but also include the surrounding villages. The cost of such a large project is very high, and the county's finances cannot afford it for the time being. Luo Yamei feels that she should understand.
The second uncle said angrily: "If the county and the commune really have no money, I won't say anything if they can't get electricity. But I heard that this year, we were supposed to get electricity in our area, but in the end I don't know why it was changed to The hometown of the commune president. The president’s hometown is more than seven miles away from the commune, and the road is still rough, unlike our flat road where planting electric poles is more convenient.”
Why else, the commune president used his power to benefit his hometown first.
Tian Shao was a little surprised, no one had told her about this.
Luo Yamei frowned. If this is the case, the president is using power for personal gain: "Old man, if this is true, I will ask the leaders of your county to give you and the villagers of Tianjia Village an explanation."
Second Uncle was very happy: "I am relieved to have what you say from the leader."
Tian Dalin was afraid that Luo Yamei would be embarrassed by his shocking words, so he immediately invited him to the table.
This engagement banquet is the same as Erya's day, with eight dishes and one soup, but the dishes should be more abundant. Several big dishes, such as pickled pork with preserved vegetables and braised pork trotters were prepared by Uncle Li, and home-cooked dishes such as fish with pickled vegetables and fried pork with fungus were made by my aunt, and they were all delicious.
People in Jiang Province can’t eat without chili, but Luo Yamei has a bland taste and can’t eat spicy food. So Tian Shao specially told his aunt to cook a few extra dishes.
Not long after lunch, Luo Yamei went back. Before leaving, she stuffed Tian Shao with a red envelope, and she said with a smile, "This is a wish from your uncle and me."
Tian Shao shirked: "Auntie, I can't have it."
"If you think the red envelope we gave is too small, then I will take it back."
In terms of wealth, the combined property of their family is not as much as Tian Shao's monthly manuscript fee. It was also fortunate that Pei Yue had settled down with Tian Shao early, otherwise he would have gotten this silly boy in one round.
Hearing this, Tian Shao could only accept the red envelope.
Luo Yamei patted Tian Shao's hand and said, "When you return to Sijiu City, come to have dinner with Pei Yue at home."
Tian Shao responded with a smile.
