After time travel, share a space with your modern family.

The matter concerning Chen Dashi and his family was finally resolved perfectly, and Old Man Chen and Old Woman Chen naturally stayed in Jinwan Village. Everything seemed to fall into place as if it were an arrangement of fate.

The village chief personally arranged for the elderly couple to register their household registration directly under Ruan Xiaojun's name, and the couple had no objections. They knew in their hearts that this was the best choice for them.

To celebrate the completion of their new house, the Ruan family held a grand housewarming banquet. People from the entire village were invited to attend, including Old Lady Zhang and her family.

Before setting off for the banquet, Ruan Dongyu specifically instructed Granny Zhang and Ruan Dongchang: "Don't meddle in other people's business today. Just treat it like you're going to someone else's banquet. If you don't listen to my advice and the village chief sends you home, that would be extremely embarrassing!"

As her son, I know Zhang's temper well, but I still explained it in advance, hoping she could restrain herself.

The Ruan family prepared two fat pigs for their housewarming banquet and told the villagers in advance that they didn't need to bring gifts, as long as everyone helped out. Nevertheless, most families still brought some vegetables as a token of their goodwill.

During the banquet, Ruan Mumu also served a bottle of Moutai to the village chief and several clan leaders. This was a gift that someone had given to her older brother, which had been sitting at home untouched. Ruan Mumu decided to present it to them.

All other villagers who were over sixteen years old were fortunate enough to receive a small amount of Erguotou (a type of Chinese liquor), while women and children received half a bowl of modern beverages, including orange juice with pulp, coconut juice, guava juice, iced black tea, green tea, and so on. These beverages were purchased by Ruan Wanfu and Ruan Yanyan at Zhang Yufang's request.

"Tinghao, what kind of wine is this? The bottle is so unique!" Chief Ruan asked first.

Qiao Tinghao is still young and not really suited to drinking, but Ruan Mumu was worried that Ruan Xiaojun wouldn't know how to entertain the village chief and the others, so she specially arranged for him to come and keep these old guys company. Especially with the Moutai liquor she prepared, if Qiao Tinghao hadn't come, they probably wouldn't have been able to open the bottle cap.

"Grandpa Clan Chief, this wine is called Maotai, and there's only one bottle left." Qiao Tinghao explained as he poured the wine, "This wine is a high-proof spirit, so you have to savor it slowly and not overindulge, as it has a strong aftereffect."

After he finished speaking, he poured a small glass of wine for everyone present.

"Grandpa, my sister said you're feeling a bit better and shouldn't drink alcohol, so she asked me to bring you some juice." Ruan Xiaohai brought a bowl of orange juice with pulp from the side room to Old Man Chen.

After dealing with the Chen family's affairs, the village chief pulled Old Man Chen to the main hall to sit at a table with them. Logically, the head table should be occupied by this elder from the Chen family. Previously, the Ruan family had arranged for these respected elders to sit at the head table, so it was appropriate to bring Old Man Chen along now.

"Hao'er, I'd like to try this wine too. Just a small sip, is that alright?" Old Man Chen, hearing that this was a rare and fine wine, was naturally unwilling to miss the opportunity.

Qiao Tinghao thought about it and realized that this might be the only bottle of Moutai available, and that there might never be another one. He figured Old Master Chen would miss it if he didn't drink much, so he poured him a small half-cup as well.

After pouring drinks for everyone, Qiao Tinghao picked up his own glass and toasted everyone, saying, "Dear elders, today is a joyous occasion for our Ruan family. On behalf of the Ruan family, I would like to express my gratitude to you all. Please raise your glasses and celebrate together!"

Everyone raised their glasses and toasted with Qiao Tinghao before beginning to enjoy the fine wine and food.

Qiao Tinghao was no exception. He took a small sip of Moutai, savoring its rich aroma and mellow taste, and couldn't help but exclaim, "What a fine wine!"

Then, he took another sip, savoring its flavor. He felt that although the wine was strong, it had a unique charm that left a lasting impression.

Although he had drunk strong liquor in modern times, he had never tasted Moutai. On the contrary, he had the opportunity to drink Moutai in ancient times. What a fantastic life!

"Ah! This wine is truly mellow and rich, unforgettable for a lifetime. At my age, to be able to drink such fine wine is truly worthwhile," the village chief couldn't help but exclaim.

“Brother Tian, ​​how much wine have we drunk? We have a long life ahead of us, and maybe there will be even better wine.” Chief Ruan said from the side.

Qiao Tinghao thought to himself: Even in modern times, Moutai is a high-end product. What wine could compare to it in ancient times?

However, Qiao Tinghao dared not say this aloud. After all, there are always better things out there, and what if there really is a better wine than this?

"Come on, come on...eat meat." Everyone at the main table greeted each other.

The women and children drinking the juice in the side room were tempted by its sweet aroma for the first time. The children were the first to finish it, while the adults only took a small sip and were reluctant to drink it, wanting to save it for their own children.

"Mother, why don't you try this wine?" Chen Donghua and Ruan Mumu led several women to sit at the main table in the side hall. Chen Donglan, her mother-in-law and mother, and the Jin family mother and daughter were also invited to sit together.

Of course, Old Lady Zhang was also among those invited. Even though they had severed ties, it didn't change the fact that she was Chen Donghua's mother-in-law. Chen Donghua didn't want people to gossip about her behind her back, so after consulting Ruan Mumu, she still invited Old Lady Zhang to the main table.

When Old Lady Zhang saw that Chen Donghua poured wine for her own mother first but not for her, her face darkened, and she was about to explode.

"Mother-in-law, why don't you have a drink too?" Chen Donghua has changed her way of addressing Old Lady Zhang slightly, mainly to distinguish her from her own mother.

"Good, good, good..." This was the first time Old Lady Zhang had smiled today, and she was secretly pleased that her daughter-in-law still respected her.

Ever since Old Lady Zhang pushed Ruan Xiaojun down last time, she has been worried that Chen Donghua would come back to dredge up old grievances, so she has not dared to cause trouble at Ruan Mumu's house again.

"Come on, it's rare for us all to get together like this, let's have a drink." Ruan Mumu raised the bowl in her hand. Everyone was puzzled. Jin Hua, who was sitting next to her, followed Ruan Mumu's example and also raised her bowl. One by one, everyone stood up.

Ruan Mumu taught everyone to place their bowls in the center of the table, then she took her own bowl and clinked it against everyone else's, saying, "Cheers... Everyone clink their bowls against each other, come on, let's all drink to each other..."

After saying that, she took a small sip and put the bowl down. Everyone followed her example, took a sip, put down their bowls, and then sat down.

"Eat some vegetables, everyone, eat more," Ruan Mumu urged everyone to eat together.

Everyone began to enjoy the food on the table, chatting and eating in a very harmonious atmosphere.
