Chapter 260 Lively
Ye Wan and Lin Shan asked everyone to find a seat inside as it would be time for dinner soon.
It would take a lot of time just for these hundreds of people to find seats to sit down.
In the kitchen, Jiang Ci hired someone to make the kind of multi-layered carts used to serve food in modern restaurants a few days ago.
Now several cars are filled with chilled fruits and appetizers.
In the past two quarters of an hour, a plate of iced fruit and a plate of appetizers were placed on each table.
Ye Cun looked at the bowl under the iced fruit and asked, "What's in this?"
As soon as I put my hand on it, I felt a cool breeze coming from inside.
"It's ice."
They all secretly smacked their heads at how much ice was needed. It seemed that the money spent on buying the ice would be more than the money spent on preparing dozens of tables of dishes.
What Jiang Ci didn't tell them was that the ice buckets that had been placed in the front yard had now been taken back and were being filled with hardened ice. A bucket would be placed at intervals later.
The serving cart can hold eight plates on each layer, for a total of six layers.
There are three kinds of dishes on a cart, and each table is served three dishes at a time.
When the main dishes were served, many people praised the cart.
There are ten dishes, one soup and one drink on the table. Although there are not many dishes, the portion of each dish is very large, which is enough to fill you up with steamed buns.
Most people were amazed when they saw this table, because even when they were getting married, they didn’t have such good food.
Ye Fan was eating a piece of pork ribs and looking at the new dishes on the table, his eyes lit up again.
The second aunt couldn't stand his greedy and worthless look, so she patted him on the head.
"You don't usually lack food."
This slap almost made Ye Fan fall off the bench, and he quickly swallowed the meat in his mouth.
"Your cooking isn't as delicious as this."
Second uncle patted Ye Fan on the back and said, "Hey! You kid, if you have the guts, don't eat it!"
Ye Fan smiled in a flattering manner, "No, no, I like mother's cooking the most. Mother's cooking is the most delicious."
First a few dishes were served, and then the wine, which was sweet rice wine, was served.
Their three tables were close to each other, and the friends and relatives filled a bowl of wine together, raised it up, and drank it all in one gulp.
“Delicious!”
"Cool!"
"This time I ordered all the wine from the rice wine shop in town. Next time I come, I will buy some good wine to treat you."
"It's not that important. This wine tastes good."
"Everyone, don't just drink, eat the food."
"This dish is really delicious, even better than the food in the restaurant."
"Then you don't know, right? One of the cooks cooking today was brought here from a mortal restaurant."
"No wonder it's so delicious. There are so many people at the Fanjian Restaurant every day. I've heard people in our village praising the food at the Fanjian Restaurant. It's just that I've been so busy lately that I haven't found the time to go there and try the food."
"It's cheap and it just opened so there are a lot of people there. If you have time, you can go and try it."
We finished the house-warming feast while chatting and laughing.
The sound of laughter really has warmth, making the newly built and deserted house feel warm.
Jiang Ci probably understands the meaning of a greenhouse now.
Jiang Ci stood up and looked over there to see how the folks who came here were eating.
"How's it going? Are you full?"
"I'm full, I'm full. This table of food is the best and most sumptuous meal I've ever had."
“That’s right, it’s really delicious.”
"And this sour plum soup, I never dared to imagine that I could drink so much at one time."
He just touched the kid's face and said, "After drinking so much sour plum juice, can you still eat other delicious food?"
"Yes, I eat a lot."
Jiang Ci looked at the tables here and saw that the food was very dry. Most of the plates were cleaned up, except for a few steamed buns left.
This is not like a modern banquet, where 10 people sit at a table and are served more than 20 dishes, which they don’t need to finish. But with these ten dishes and one soup and steamed buns, you can definitely eat your fill.
After walking a distance forward, I found that some tables where people had finished eating had spontaneously cleared their dishes. They poured all the remaining soup on the plates into one bowl, and stacked the plates and basins together.
The man with his hands on a pile of plates was looking around, probably trying to find someone here to ask where to send the plates.
"Uncle and grandma, put the plates here first. They are almost done eating, and we will collect the plates later."
"I can just send this over, don't let them get in trouble."
"Put it here. They'll come with the cart that they just used to serve the dishes and collect all the dishes from the tables in no time."
"I'll just put it here. It's really convenient for them to do that."
People from the west end of the village or those who were not unfamiliar with Jiang Ci's family stood not far from the table. Others gathered in the open space inside the gate where the gift list was placed, chatting and discussing today's meal and this yard.
Those who have a closer relationship with Jiang Ci's family walked along the cement path to look at the flowers and plants planted in the yard.
Jiang Ci was not worried about them going to their residence because someone was watching there.
They all went to work in the soap factory and essential oil factory in a bustling manner, while those who had nothing to do with them left one after another.
The people who lent them tables, chairs, benches and plates are now identifying and claiming them.
A group of people working in the compound quickly cleaned up the mess left on all the benches where people had eaten, but no matter how quick they were, so many plates had not been washed yet.
Scrub them thoroughly and let them dry, then ask the person who lent them the plates to come and pick them up.
Ye Shuyun and Lin Xi said hello to Jiang Ci and left.
Because their relatives on both sides are here, they can't stay here for too long. It would be unnatural to get along with each other and it would disturb their interest.
If you want to see where they both live, there will be plenty of time later.
Ye Wan and Lin Shan were helping the people in front to identify the tables, chairs and benches in their own home, while Lin Jingsheng went to the big kitchen.
Go and see how many dishes they have washed, and it's also time to pay attention to the group of people who are busy preparing for their house-warming banquet.
"Hello, boss!"
"You've done so much, aren't you tired?"
"It's not tiring. These plates have only been rinsed once and we have to count them twice."
"Everyone has worked hard today, and the house-warming party is also thanks to you all."
"It's not hard, not hard! It's what we should do." Everyone had a sincere and bright smile on their face.
"Wang Dahu, go see if there's any ice left in the room over there. If there is, get some out and put it over here. The sun is pretty hot right now, so put some ice here to cool you down."
"okay!"
The man ran over in a flash.
The people here hurriedly thanked him, "Thank you, boss!"
