"Good afternoon, dear friends and guests.”
"Celebrating the first full moon of the palm pearl, happy to crown the head to celebrate the good year. Today, we drink the full moon wine together, and in the future, we will congratulate our ancestors and grandchildren.”
"Today, we are gathered here to celebrate the baby's one-month-old birthday. Thank you for coming. On behalf of the Xi Family, I would like to express my warm welcome and sincere gratitude to everyone.”
...
"Now, everyone, please enjoy the song and dance 'Good Days'.”
Seeing that most of the guests had arrived and the tables were filled, the host stood on the stage and began to host the show.
As soon as the joyful music spread, the festive atmosphere at the scene was instantly there.
After the opening dance ended, the red and yellow lion dance came out from behind the stage and performed the Lion Dance for everyone.
Jiang Ping could feel the lively atmosphere outside from the courtyard.
Compared to a funeral, a wedding in the countryside was really lively.
There were all kinds of performances, singing, dancing, lion dancing, and everything else.
If it wasn't for the fact that he couldn't leave the stove, Jiang Ping would have gone out to watch.
Little did he know that he yearned for the liveliness of the stage, but the people watching the show were all absent-mindedly waiting for the show to begin.
"Hey, did you go to the back to take a look just now? The big fried carp is braised in the pot. It's probably sour and spicy. It's fragrant and spicy.”
There were not many young people in the village, so those who knew each other sat at a table.
Compared to the group of aunties dancing on the stage, the various dishes in the courtyard were more attractive to them.
"I saw it. I counted the bamboo steamer and there were more than ten layers. It was steaming and very fragrant. I wonder what was steamed inside.”
"The empty space is full of tables. There are too many people.”
"Why hasn't the banquet started yet?"
"I guess the banquet will only start after the performance.”
"Don't. I'd rather not watch the performance than eat.”
Usually, if any village hired a song and dance troupe, all the children in the village would probably gather in front of the stage.
But this time was different. The children were all around Jiang Ping.
"You kids have a performance outside, so why are you here? Hurry up and go play in front.”
The adults who were helping at the side saw that there were so many children around and hurriedly chased them away.
Putting everything else aside, just these few large iron pots and the scalding vegetables would hurt the children if they bumped into them while they were playing.
"We're not leaving. We want to see big brother cook.”
The child ran away noisily and continued to watch in another place.
Jiang Ping didn't expect himself to be so popular. He smiled and told the children to stay away from him.
"Big brother, when is dinner?”
"Soon, soon."
Jiang Ping was very busy. He casually replied with a few words and poured a pot of black pepper beef ribs into the iron basin.
The auntie who was helping at the side took a big spoon and began to split the food.
There were about 25 servings of a dish. The extra ones were poured to the side. They would not be wasted.
The steaming hot dishes were placed on the plate, emitting a fragrance. The auntie who was picking up the dishes was not strong-willed enough to resist the temptation. While everyone was busy and not paying attention, she secretly picked up a small piece of beef with her chopsticks and put it into her mouth.
"Look, that person is stealing food!"
Before the auntie could swallow the beef in her mouth, she heard the child beside her shout and point at her.
The adults were busy and did not notice that the children were standing at the side and watching.
They were drooling from the various scents. They did not eat it secretly because they knew that they would be scolded if they did.
In the end, they actually saw the adults working secretly eating. Their eyes widened and they were as angry as pufferfish.
After being yelled at by the child, everyone in the courtyard looked at the auntie who was secretly eating.
The aunt's face turned red. She didn't know whether to eat the beef or not. She explained embarrassedly,"That beef fell to the ground. It's a pity to waste it, so I picked it up and ate it.”
Everyone understood and didn't say anything. They just smiled and went about their own business.
No one would say anything about them helping out and taking some time off from work to eat.
After all, they were all circling around Jiang Ping, and their eyes were green with greed. If they didn't steal a few bites to satisfy their cravings, how could they be in the mood to work?
The adults were well aware that children obviously wouldn't listen to adults.
In their eyes, black was black and white was white.
They were so greedy that no one fed them a bite. They waited for the banquet to begin.
Daren actually ate it secretly!
This was really intolerable!
"Liar, you're lying. I saw you pick up some food with your chopsticks.”
The auntie who had been secretly eating was really embarrassed by the group of children. Under the watchful eyes of the public, she blushed and pretended to be angry. She shouted for the children to stop making a fuss and leave quickly.
"What does a child know? Hurry up and play aside.”
The children were so angry that they cried.
She was already feeling wronged. She didn't understand why adults could steal food, but children would be scolded for stealing food.
When they saw someone stealing food, they played the role of supervision. In the end, it was fine if no one scolded the aunt who stole food, but they were still chased out!
All of them were angry and aggrieved as they stood in the courtyard and wailed.
When the adults outside heard their children crying, they could not care less about the performance and quickly ran over.
"What's wrong, what's wrong?"
"Did you fight?"
"Why are you crying?"
