Return To 1977 Chapter 660: Wedding banquet


lnmao.org, the fastest update to return to the latest chapter of 1977!

"Zhu Xi's Family Instructions" says: It is the most shameful thing to be slandered after seeing wealth. There is nothing worse than being arrogant when faced with poverty.

Little bureaucratic couples like Xu Bingquan and Yu Wanfen are undoubtedly a typical example in this world, a living portrayal.

The Hong family is naturally blessed to have such an in-law. Even if there won't be any fundamental friction in the future, nausea will definitely be inevitable. I'm afraid the only sensible thing to do is to be respectful and distant from him.

But fortunately, the awkwardness of this day has finally come to an end.

Under the invisible pressure from the Hong family, the Xu family behaved and restrained a lot from top to bottom. No one has the slightest contempt for this family anymore, and no one dares to make trouble anymore.

Moreover, the "embarrassment" caused by self-humiliation is limited to Xu Bingquan and his wife's own psychological activities.

Hong Lucheng and Wang Yunlin are everyone's style, and they treat others consistently. This not only improved the reputation of Xu Bingquan and his wife, but also made other guests feel as if they were enjoying the spring breeze.

So the wedding ceremony that day went quite smoothly.

From Director Song as the officiant reading out the marriage certificate, to Li Fu leading the couple to bow, and then asking them to serve tea to their parents, and then Deputy Secretary Wang and District Chief He delivered congratulatory messages. Until the ceremony was completed, everything went smoothly.

Even the subsequent entertainment program had surprises far beyond expectations.

You know, not only are Zhou Manna and Su Xiaoming coming with Yang Weifan today, but there is also an additional guest, the young actor Cheng Lin who has just become famous in the group.

In addition, Shou Jingfang was grateful to the Yang family for their sincerity, but due to the inconvenience of being in public, he finally accepted the gift. Yang Weifan felt extremely happy and excited.

In this way, after the wedding process is over, there will be a lot of fun in the Hong family courtyard.

In fact, Cheng Lin not only sang her famous work, but also "Little Snail Horn" which has been sung everywhere in Beijing recently. Yang Weifan and Su Xiaoming sang their latest hit song "Golden Shuttle and Silver Shuttle". Yu Wanyu performed Ying Jing'er's traditional auspicious opera. Even in the end, forced by the situation, a close relative of the Hong family also spoke of Chrysostom.

Then something special needs to be explained here.

First of all, the song "Golden Shuttle and Silver Shuttle" has been popular for more than half a year since October last year.

But this time it is not plagiarism by Hong Yanwu. The reason why it was sung by Yang Weifan and Su Xiaoming is actually Hong Yanwu's "butterfly effect" that changed history.

It is precisely because of this boy that the pair of acting partners are now as famous as ever. As a result, once "Golden Shuttle and Silver Shuttle" was composed, the composer actually asked Yang Weifan and Su Xiaoming to sing the song instead of asking his old friend to do it for him.

Thus, by some strange combination of circumstances, the two classic songs that were originally supposed to belong to "Oriental Nightingale" became Yang Weifan's masterpieces.

Hong Yanwu was very proud of this. It should be said that I feel a sense of accomplishment that I have made a superstar famous with one hand, and I am also greatly relieved.

Because of this, even without his special care, Yang Weifan would not be short of good songs to sing in the future.

Secondly, Yu Wanyu originally planned to perform a piece of "Garden Gift" in which Wang Baochuan financed Xue Pinggui's love.

This scene is good, but it's a pity that it's just a female actor singing a cappella and it's too short. Many theatergoers are not satisfied and quit.

So in order to get Yu Wanyu to sing a few more lines, I also wanted to listen to the next song "Pai Lou Pei". Everyone had to find someone to sing Xue Pinggui temporarily.

But no one had the ability to do this, and in the end because he didn't want everyone to be disappointed, Hong Lucheng finally asked Yuntai to do the job.

What people really didn’t expect was that Yuntai’s bright voice, hey, it’s comparable to that of a famous actor, and it’s simply hopeless.

These uncles from the Hong family almost grew up in the theater when they were young.

In addition, the old lady of the Wanyan family also loves to watch theater, and she has her own stage in the half-acre garden. For example, many of the famous opera masters who are now called "masters" have served in their family's "ticket opera".

If it weren't for the strict control at home, which only allowed tickets for movies and no "going out to the sea", in fact, Yuntai could have become a role. So this export is naturally good.

As the saying goes, when you meet an opponent in chess, you will meet a good talent.

This time, Yu Wanyu also became energetic. She and Yuntai sang each other's words almost perfectly, which was extremely enjoyable.

Think about it, the professional actors themselves feel good about it, but how do the audience feel?

It must be a huge success. Even Mr. and Mrs. Smith didn’t know whether they really understood or pretended to understand, so they clapped their hands.

Just like that, the mood was high and the scene was very lively. The atmosphere reaches the climax without any pause.

While everyone was feasting their eyes and ears, Li Fu also arranged for people to prepare for the banquet.

Unknowingly, teacups, teapots, melon seeds, peanuts, wedding candies, and wedding cigarettes were all removed one by one. Instead, the items on the table were gradually replaced by a pot of red wine, a pot of white wine, two plates of black pickles, and a soy sauce pot and a vinegar pot.

Soon, in front of each seat, there was a four-inch cloth plate, a pair of chopsticks, a copper spoon, a small porcelain wine cup that could hold three coins of wine, a glass, and three or four White paper is placed under the plate for guests to use.

When the "Five Star Beer" and "Polar Bear" soda, which had been artificially chilled early, were placed on the oil table next to them along with the iron buckets, the tea seat would be completely transformed into an official seat.

In this way, the kitchen can officially start cooking.

Today's banquet consists of eight large bowls, four tables and four sweets.

The eight bowls are, in order, mandarin duck buckles (taro meat), fish in sauce, braised chicken nuggets, sea cucumbers roasted with green onions, dried croquettes, water chestnuts and shrimps, crystal elbows, and chestnut cabbage.

The four-pressure table cold meat is, fish cubes with black bean sauce, barbecued pork, cold skin with shredded chicken, and pine flowers in vinegar sauce.

The four sweets are rose dates, fried red fruits, yam cake, and milk rolls. The staple food is two large plates of Xizi steamed buns.

It seems that Hong Yanwu’s people have never done this before, but after Li Fu’s orderly division of labor and advance drills, there was no chaos at all.

On one side, there were people carrying vegetables from the kitchen to the oil table in the courtyard. As they walked, they shouted, "Excuse me, please turn around! Watch out for the oil!" On the other side, there was a dedicated person named Hou. At the table, the dishes from the oil table are presented to each table one by one in order.

It should be said that by today's standards, these dishes are indeed simpler. Even before liberation, they would not be as good as the "Four Four to the End" feast.

But in this day and age, eggs, poultry, fish and meat, as well as seafood such as sea cucumbers and shrimps, are already considered an extremely rich feast.

Of course, the key is that Master Pang’s methods are really outstanding. Not only are the regular dishes up to par, but the rare thing is that seafood, which is not Kouzi's specialty, is also cooked extremely well.

In particular, the dish "Roasted Sea Cucumber with Scallions" is on par with the old restaurant "Seafood Restaurant" in "Bincheng" and "Fengzeyuan" in Beijing.

Not only Hong Yanwu, Chen Liquan and a few "Hai Bangzi" were pleasantly surprised, but the ordinary guests also praised them endlessly.

Also, those four desserts are all made by Li Fu. Especially the two snacks, which were the special tea dishes of "Yanmeilou" that were famous in the capital.

Except for the Hong family’s business, you can’t get it anywhere. Most guests have never tasted it, so how can it not be delicious?

So the whole courtyard was filled with joy, changing cups and changing cups. No one was polite and everyone ate with great enthusiasm.

At this moment, the sunlight can almost reach the entire courtyard of the Hong family. Not only does it make the cups, plates and utensils on every table shine, but the dishes also make people more appetizing.

But soon, there was a new movement in the dazzling banquet. As usual, we started to thank each other from table to table. The groom and the bride should also come to toast, serve the dishes, and say some kind words.

What’s interesting is that every time after finishing a table, everyone can always hear Li Fu’s energetic and concluding speech.

"It's so polite, I would like to thank you!"

Fire, lively, and full of joy are all exaggerated to the extreme...
