My mother-in-law actually married the prince

Chapter 152 Opening the Banquet

After a while, a horse-drawn carriage slowly drove into Lijia Village.

The people in the carriage asked the villagers where Lin Cuihua's house was.

A kind villager showed them the way and sent them to Lin Cuihua's house.

After Lin Zhixin arranged for people to make steamed fish, she began to busily direct other preparatory work.

After a while, the grain seller also drove the cart to deliver the grain. Everyone hurried forward to help unload the goods, and the bags of grain were neatly stacked aside.

Lin Zhixin carefully checked the quality of the food, and after confirming that it was correct, she thanked the person who delivered the food.

At this time, the courtyard was bustling with activity. The women in charge of cooking were busy at the stove, with steam rising from the pots and the aroma filling the air.

Yaoyao and the aunties who were making buns were busy steaming one basket after another.

The steamer was gradually filled with plump white buns.

Ah Xiu was concentrating on watching over the braised meat pot, adjusting the heat from time to time to make the braised meat taste more mellow.

On the other side of the yard, some people were setting up tables and chairs, preparing for the incoming guests.

The children were running around in the yard, excitedly anticipating the grand feast.

The entire Lijia Village was filled with a festive atmosphere, and everyone was busy preparing for this lively banquet.

After a while, Yuan also came with her family.

Seeing that everyone was busy, she led her family to join the busy army.

After a while, Wang Da came to present gifts on behalf of his master.

Lin Zhixin warmly welcomed Wang Da into the yard. After some greetings, she arranged for someone to properly place the gifts.

Lin Zhixin checked everywhere and couldn't help wondering, it's already this late, why hasn't Zhou come back yet?

This person was really unexpected. At this time, Zhou also came with her family. Zhou was smiling, and brought his father and his brother's family. It must be said that his brother's family was really considerate. They immediately went to help as soon as they arrived.

After a while, Lin Zhixin asked Village Chief Li and Li Hong to help keep the account books.

Village chief Li and Li Hong readily agreed, found a quiet place to sit down, and placed writing brush, ink, paper and inkstone in front of them.

Lin Zhixin spent 30 points to buy ten kilograms of candy from the system mall and placed it in the middle of the table where Village Chief Li and the others were registering.

Village Chief Li, please give each of them two candies when they register. If there are children, give them a few more.

okay, got it.

Guests arrived one after another, each bearing a gift. Village Chief Li and Li Hong methodically recorded each gift and the name of the giver.

Dashan and Xiaoshan saw candy at the registration table. Their eyes lit up and they asked Lin Zhixin if they could have some.

Lin Zhixin smiled and said, "Eat it if you want. This is ours, not someone else's.

"Dashan took Li Xiaole and the others back from time to time to grab some candy.

Li Xiaole hadn't eaten this candy for a long time, and his face was full of joy.

Several children put the candies into their mouths, and the sweet taste spread in their mouths instantly. They all squinted their eyes while eating, happily enjoying this rare delicacy.

It seems that there are no other worries in the world at this moment, only the endless satisfaction brought by this little candy.

At this time, Aunt Wang presented a basket of fresh eggs, and Village Chief Li solemnly wrote down his name and the content of the gift.

Then, General Li sent five pieces of fine cloth and one hundred taels of silver. Li Hong wrote it down quickly in the book.

Some villagers gave a dozen coins, some gave vegetables from their homes, and some gave a few kilograms of rice.

Wang Da gave twenty taels of silver on behalf of his master, and he himself gave 500 coins.

Lin Zhixin occasionally came to check on the progress and expressed her gratitude to Village Chief Li and Li Hong for their seriousness and responsibility.

Village chief Li and Li Hong were always concentrating on the bookkeeping work, not daring to be careless, and ensuring that every gift was recorded accurately.

After a while, the banquet was spread from the yard to the new house, and the scene was very spectacular.

Today's feast was incredibly sumptuous, with white rice, steamed buns, and eight large bowls of dishes, including stewed vegetables, braised pork, steamed fish, cabbage and tofu soup, stir-fried lean meat with mushrooms, Maoxuewang (Chinese blood soup), stir-fried vegetables, and scrambled eggs with chopped green onions. The villagers savored the delicious dishes.

Everyone was amazed and praised his dishes for being not only delicious but also generous in portion.

Their family’s banquet once again became a hot topic in the entire Lijia Village.

Lin Zhixin sat with his brother and others. His sister-in-law and several children looked at the table full of delicious food and were tempted to eat and take some.

Seeing this, Zhou immediately spoke out to stop them: "If anyone dares to take it, don't blame me for being rude!

"Zhou's father also said seriously: "Whoever dares to embarrass me, I will beat him to death when I get home!

"My younger brother and sister-in-law were most afraid of his father. After being frightened, they dared not take anything.
