Chapter 938 Why are there guests
In the new week, colleges and universities in the capital have also entered the examination period. Generally, elective courses are taken, and professional required courses are taken next week. After the exams, there is a holiday.
Classmate Le said that someone Yan said that he would escort her home. Anyway, it was useless to struggle. The guy said that he would send someone to follow her. Even if he objected, their people would follow.
It was time to take exams, and she was also busy. She had to take several exams every day, most of which were subjects from the fourth or fifth year of college, and a few were subjects from the third or second year of college.
During the physical education test on Thursday, Coach Ou went to the little girl’s dormitory to get food at night, and focused on telling her about letting her participate in the International Indoor Track and Field Games with the national track and field team after the year.
Originally, the Ministry of National Sports wanted to send her as a representative to participate in the Asian Indoor Track and Field Championships. However, because the venue was Iraq and there were certain safety issues, the military ministry rejected it, so only the little girl was allowed to participate in the International Indoor Track and Field Championships in March.
The beautiful boy thinks Comrade Xiaoou is too wordy, so he’ll eat it when he’s full! She carried him away, but Coach Ou originally wanted to have a problem because his classmate gave him a delicacy and a truffle, as well as a small gift for each of the other coaches of the track and field team. He hugged the gift and followed the beautiful boy with a smile. people.
Little Loli took the time to go to the hospital for a physical examination on Friday. On Saturday, she went to her teacher’s wife’s house with her beautiful brother. They worked hard in the kitchen all day. Go home and eat some at school.
When college students in the capital ushered in the exam week for professional courses, God did not feel sorry for the students. It started to snow on Monday, and the snow flakes only fell for one day. After that, the snow melted and froze again and again.
No matter how cold it is, students will still wake up early and stay up late to review in the cold wind, rushing to take exams everywhere. There are also exams even on weekends.
While Zai Le's classmates were busy taking exams, the wall on the third floor of Lejia's new building was also built, with formwork installed and steel bars tied. Once it was done, the floor was poured.
On January 16th, Brother Zhou also rushed to take his mother home before the first day of December.
No matter how reluctant Grandma Zhou was, she still went home. Although she said her son-in-law was nice, if she really celebrated the New Year at her son-in-law's house, people in the same village would probably chew the roots and say her son was unfilial.
On the same day, Young Master Yan took off the band-aid on his face. The little Loli's medicine was amazing. The scars scabbed off early, leaving only a little mark, which was not obvious. After a while, even the mark may disappear.
A week has passed in a flash. The weekend is January 20th and 21st. On Sunday, most colleges and universities have finished their exams and have a holiday. Qingdao University’s winter vacation lasts from January 22nd to February 25th, which lasts for one month and three days.
After the exam, the students were liberated and left part of the way that night. Classmate Le also packed his luggage and took a nap. He got up at 3:30 in the morning, had breakfast and carried his luggage downstairs with Brother Chao who came to see him off.
Yan Xing was waiting downstairs at around three o'clock. When he waited for little Loli, he helped her carry her luggage into her car. Little Loli took the Chao boy's car and set off first, while he drove behind.
After the two cars left the school, they drove for a while. Le’s classmate turned from his handsome brother’s car into Yan’s car, and the two cars went their separate ways.
The morning departure was early. Even though he was stuck in traffic for a while in the city, it only took Yan Shao more than two minutes to get to the airport. He parked his car in the parking lot and carried his luggage to the terminal to check in.
Little Loli has a luggage trailer with a large password box and a large backpack. Young Master Yan only has a large backpack and helps tow the luggage trailer, only for security inspection and not for hauling.
We entered the terminal and waited until about seven o'clock to board the plane. The plane took off at 7:50 and landed at Shishi Airport in Ebei Province at 10:10.
Because the little Loli didn't like being followed, she refused to talk to her all the way from Qingda University to Shishi. Yan Xing felt aggrieved and had nowhere to complain, so he took her out of the airport and contacted the car rental company by phone to inspect the car outside the airport. Check that there are no safety hazards, accept it.
I rented a Santana, a semi-new car, and driving it by yourself is better than driving around in a car.
What made Yan Xing happy was that the little Loli sat in the passenger seat without talking to him, so his mood immediately improved, just like the weather in E North.
Winter in northern E is mostly sunny and rainy, and the weather is good and the sun is there.
It was several hours' journey from Shishi Airport to Xiao Loli's hometown Jiudao. It was almost noon when the car arrived in Fang County. Young Master Yan asked Xiao Loli and she said she would not stop for dinner, so he hurried on without stopping, only driving along the way. Oil once.
In order to let the little Loli go home early, he is also very aware of current affairs. If he can drag the car, he will increase the power of the car. If he can't drag the car, he will maintain a certain speed. The original four and a half hour journey took him only four minutes to get there.
When the car drove to the village committee building, he didn't hear the little Loli saying that he should stay in a hotel on the street. Yan Xing felt relieved that he was done.
Lan San was waiting to pick up the captain and little Loli at Zhou Papi's house next to the village committee building. When he saw the car coming, he went up to help the little Loli open the car door, picked her up, and then moved her luggage.
After Le Yun got off the car, she sneaked to Zhou Papi's house and reported to Zhou Papi's grandfather and Aunt Papi. She also got a handful of delicious dried sweet potatoes.
Aunt Pa and Zhou Bapi sent Xiao Lele away with smiles. Brother Bing was still living in Xiao Lele's house, so she was sent back by Brother Bing himself. This shows how much Xiao Lele is valued now, even if In this way, Xiao Lele has not changed, she is still the naughty and painful Le family girl before.
Yan Xing and Lan San carried all the little Lolita's luggage. She ran ahead with her small bag of belongings jingling, and ran to the door of Village Chief Zhou's house. She also ran to say hello to the two old people, and then He rushed home happily, threw himself into his parents who were waiting outside the house, and acted coquettishly to his elders.
Seeing the little cotton-padded jacket, Le's father Zhou Qiufeng felt at ease. He called Handsome Yan, pulled the child into the house, and asked her and Handsome Yan to sit by the kotatsu to warm themselves up. The two of them went to the kitchen to give them hot food. The food had been prepared early, so they Waiting for someone to come back.
Le Yun warmed her hands and then went to see her younger brother. Her younger brother Leshan was still taking a nap. She didn't wake him up. She observed for a while and then went back to the main room.
Little Lolita went to see her brother, Yan Xing went to wash her hands and face, and Lan San followed him out, whispering to the captain: "Boss, have you made the little beauty unhappy again? I looked at the little beauty as if she didn't welcome you. ”
"Knowing that we have to protect her during the winter vacation, little Loli is not happy." Yan Xing explained in a muffled voice and said no more, returning to the Le family's main room to sit down.
Le's father, Zhou Qiufeng, served delicious food outside for his children and handsome boy Yan to eat, including piping hot rice, hot pot with ribs as a base, and deliciously fried fish.
After having a belated lunch, Leyun packed her luggage and put the toast and king crab she brought back on the shelf in the freezer room. The truffles and the like were put in her room first. She gave her father and Aunt Feng a diamond ring and a black Bracelet of sandalwood beads.
The diamond ring was too expensive, and Zhou Qiufengle's father felt uneasy wearing it, so he only wore a wooden bead bracelet. After all, it was a gift brought back from abroad by his child. Even if he didn't like wearing something on his wrist, he had to try to adapt.
After collecting her luggage, Le Yun sat talking to her father and Aunt Feng. They hadn't sat down for ten minutes before Village Chief Zhou and Grandma Zhou Man came to Le's house with a basket of eggs. They also came to tell Xiao Le that The roof of Le's building may have many guests.
"Grandpa Man, you just said that there are probably twenty-five tables?"
Le Yun almost jumped up. There were more than 20 table guests at Brother's Full Moon Wine. The ceiling on the third floor was even more than that of Brother's Full Moon Wine? Who are those extra guys?
"Let me give you a rough estimate that twenty-five tables is the minimum number." Village Chief Zhou was helpless and told the three members of the Le family: "Last time, there were more than one person from each family in the village, and there were twenty tables at that time. Some families may come this time, so there must be at least twenty-three tables. Last time, no one from the neighboring village came to have full moon wine. This time, anyone who doesn’t have a feud with your family and is a little familiar with your family will. Come on, I bet on this.
After all, the family is busy with tourists, and with a boy like you who is studying medicine, your family is not what it used to be, and everyone wants to get closer to your family, just in case someone has typhoid fever or a serious cold someday, it is good to be familiar with it I'm looking for you to show me, so people from neighboring villages must be counted as at least the second table.
My calculation of twenty-five tables is a conservative number. Some people will bring their little ones with them, and the little ones will also occupy seats, so there will be more. ”
Lele's father held his head: "Lele, what should I do? There are so many people, I feel dizzy just thinking about it."
Zhou Qiufeng made a funny follow-up: "What else can I do? Let's have it cold."
"Grandpa Zhou Man, my family didn't say we were going to have a banquet, why would anyone come?"
Le Yun looked at her father and Aunt Feng: "Dad, you didn't tell anyone that you wanted to open a bar?"
"No, hosting a banquet is so troublesome, and you can't accept gifts. It's a thankless task. I won't be stupid enough to tell others about hosting a banquet."
Yueqing hated trouble, Grandma Zhou Man laughed, and Village Chief Zhou also smiled bitterly: "Xiao Lele, you don't know, when you were building panels on the first and second floors of your house, someone wanted to come. I said Le's family doesn't hold banquets. I blocked them all, but I can’t stop them from coming.”
"Okay, if they are coming, I can only welcome them with my hands and feet. I just feel bad for my seafood. I thought we could eat it beautifully for a month. If we have to hold a banquet, we can't keep the seafood. The few old Codonopsis root and turkey tails I collected are all gone.”
"Well, the Codonopsis pilosula is gone, you can dig it again..."
Village Chief Zhou encouraged him with a smile, saying there was nothing he could do. If people were to come, if they were not prepared, they would not be able to get off the stage if they had no place to sit.
Le's father, Zhou Qiufeng, also felt sorry for Xiao Lele's medicinal materials and the seafood upstairs, but he had no choice but to regret eating less delicious food.
Yan Xing chatted with Village Chief Zhou and his wife for a long time, then went upstairs to make the bed. When he saw the soft straw bed in Lan Sanbu, he happily moved a quilt on it, and the two of them lay down side by side without making another bed.
At about four o'clock in the afternoon, the Jiudao Police Station also learned that the Lejia girl had returned to the village and was accompanied by a bodyguard. She immediately reported the situation to her superiors. The county and city bureaus also soon learned of the situation, and the county and city bureaus felt great pressure. .
Huang Zhichang felt gloomy when he received a call from the Huang family after get off work saying that a certain little short-lived ghost had returned to the village with bodyguards.
The Le family didn't know that others were nervous, so they were busy with their own business. Village chief Zhou and his wife had dinner at Le's house that night. Le's father also went to pick up his mother-in-law. After dinner, Brother Lanbing helped take village chief Zhou and his wife back. Brother Zhou Come pick me up.
After returning home, Leyun was in a good mood. She took her brother back to the space to sleep at night. After meditating until one o'clock, she could not bear to sleep. She dug out all the medicinal materials under the dragon blood tree and moved most of them to the pine garden for planting. Some of the ginseng was already found in nature. After growing for hundreds of years, I planted part of it and washed part of it to dry in the shade.
After being busy for half the night, I took my brother out of the room at five o'clock and made breakfast by myself.
When Lele's father, Zhou Qiufeng, had breakfast, he ate some bread made from mushrooms that little Lele traveled thousands of miles abroad to find. It was delicious, but it felt like it was not worth the money.
Dad Le didn't have time to express too much, so he drove his electric tricycle to the street to pull things. On the first trip, he pulled back twenty-six sets of tables and stools, and then went to pull back pots and bowls and other daily necessities, as well as a few rolls of floor coverings. Floor paper, set up raincloths, shelves and boards in the backyard after returning home.
On the first day, things were cleaned and packed and sealed. On the second day, it was Laba. Le Dad went to the street to get ingredients such as pig feet, ears, etc. and took them home to process.
On the third day, Le’s father went to the street to get pig feet and other ingredients again. Brother Zhou and Liu Lu went to help Le’s family buy chickens and ducks in the village. They had agreed in advance, weighed and paid, and then moved them back to Le’s home for slaughter. , most of them are purchased from Cheng Youde’s house.
Young Master Lan Sanyan, Brother Zhou, Liu Lu and the Cheng family brothers helped kill the chickens and ducks and marinate them in the concoction made by Xiao Loli.
In the afternoon, Little Loli steamed chicken with lotus leaves, and they helped clean the soaked seafood.
The roofing of the third floor of Lejia's new house was scheduled for the tenth day of the lunar month, which was the next day, so Le's classmate only practiced for two hours that night. He got up at one o'clock to steam the seafood ingredients in two pots, and at the same time used another pot to stew the pig. Hoof, and a pot of braised pig ears.
When others get up, what they smell is the fragrant aroma, which also makes people near Lejia secretly drool countless times.
Lan Sanyanxing got up in the morning, packed up all the beds and luggage, moved them to the Lejia warehouse where food was stored, and locked them up. After the meal, he spread floor paper on the floor.
The three rooms on the second floor are covered with paper to facilitate cleaning. Otherwise, if there are oil stains on the floor, the floor will have to be washed, which is too troublesome.
After laying out the paper and setting up tables and chairs, the upstairs is full. Two tables will be placed on the first floor first, and then some tables and chairs will be moved to the lobby on the first floor of the new Lejia building for storage. If there are many visitors, they will be placed there. In the second table, there is no need to set up seats there.
The two soldiers set up the tables and chairs, then set up the brazier, added ashes and charcoal, then boiled the bowls of water and sent them upstairs.
They were happy as errand boys. Zhou Papi and his wife helped move the meat and fish they picked up from the street in the morning to Lejia for processing. The fish was cleaned, drained, fried, and the meat was cut into cubes or strips.
Soon, Zhang Poluo and others arrived. The women were responsible for helping in the kitchen, washing and cutting vegetables, loading bowls, etc., while the men went to the new building to make preparations.
Later, thirty or forty men from the village came to help with the odd job of pouring the floor. At about eight o'clock, the master engineer arrived in his car. He stopped outside the Le family's house and brought a chicken as a drinking gift.
Village chief Zhou accepted the gift and registered it in the register.
The master workers set up the machine and started work after nine o'clock. The machine mixed the cement and manually fed the materials. The machine sent the cement truck to the third floor, and the people above took care of it and poured the panels.
The scene with dozens of people was busy. The new Lejia building and the original building were busy inside and outside. Several cars drove into the village from the direction of Xiang Street from the county seat, crossed the street, and turned onto the road into Meizijing Village.
