Chapter 388 Jiangcun Celebration
"Uncle Jianguo sent Yiyi and Ayun back to help?"
all?
An Songyu looked over in confusion.
“Your eldest sister, An Songyi, is nicknamed Yiyi. Isn’t she your family’s first child?” An Songyan explained to An Songyu while glancing at the people beside him.
How did you know about this?
He recalled that the two were basically the same, often working until late at night.
After tidying up and getting home, I would usually just collapse into bed and go to sleep.
There probably isn't much time to gossip about these things.
Like him, haven't we only just heard about it now?
"That kid has come to my place several times to drink and complain. Oh, and he brings several young men from the village with him." The young man surnamed Jiang raised his chin and pointed in the direction of An Songshu.
"Just him alone?" An Songyu and the other asked suspiciously.
"How is that possible? Aren't they known as the conjoined twins of Jiang Village? Can he still walk without his wife?" The young man surnamed Jiang looked at An Songyu and the other man in disbelief and asked repeatedly.
Although... strictly speaking, Jiang Wenying is also his cousin.
The couple has a good relationship, so he should offer his blessings.
However, their cloying affection and way of doing things made many people dislike them.
Birds of a feather flock together.
Those who wanted to be independent from an early age and would seize any opportunity to work hard honestly didn't think much of them.
But there are always those people in the village who have no ability whatsoever, yet they can complain here and brag there all day long.
Not only does he not mind spending time with the two of them, he also particularly enjoys following behind them.
After all, An Songshu possesses a wealth that many of the younger generation in Jiangcun cannot even grasp.
Jiang Wenying also has another story, which is euphemistically called "another story".
Although many people in the village were skeptical about whether they could freely dispose of the money.
Among young people, the couple certainly lived a comfortable life and were exceptionally generous.
This is exactly the same image they have had since they were children in the village.
Therefore, the couple can also be considered one of the centers of another group of young people in the village.
However, An Songyu, who was not very familiar with the village, was unaware of these things.
An Songyan knew a little about it, but since his grandfather and father were the brothers, he felt it was still difficult to bring it up.
It's even more inappropriate for the young man surnamed Jiang to gossip in front of the two people surnamed An.
Therefore, An Songyu could only sense Jiang's obvious disdain from the young man's attitude.
But neither of them seemed inclined to answer his relentless questions.
She asked the initial question: "What did he complain about about his older sister and the others?"
"What could it be? It's just that she's married but doesn't stay at home properly and still tries to act capable in front of her parents..." The young man surnamed Jiang glanced at An Songyan before answering casually.
The actual words are naturally even harsher.
But isn't An Songyu a city girl who didn't grow up in Jiangcun?
Even though she spent more than half a year in Jiangcun last year, the young people in Jiangcun still pay special attention to what they say in front of her.
But based on the attitude behind those words, An Songyu already understood.
She couldn't help but rub her forehead.
Indeed, every family has its own troubles.
While his entire family was so busy they barely had time to breathe, An Songshu still had time to complain.
It seems he really is a bit too bored!
Putting the matter aside for the time being, An Songyu continued with her work.
In the afternoon, looking at the old factory buildings that were no longer recognizable as they were, An Songyu prepared to leave.
But the villagers, who had already gone to the nearby vegetable market and supermarket to buy all kinds of ingredients, didn't give An Songyu a chance to speak at all.
When An Songlin and his colleagues got off work, they even received phone calls.
And so, in this temporary and hurried manner, the first real gathering after the demolition of Jiangcun began on their own turf!
"So lively?" Wang Henian, who was brought along by the An Jianguo brothers, was stunned by the lively atmosphere in Jiangcun as soon as he arrived.
“I also think this atmosphere is truly a rare sight!” An Songlin had just arrived as well. He parked his car and waited for An Jianguo and the other three to arrive together.
“It’s definitely a different feeling when it’s your own territory!” An Jianguo understood this perfectly.
He pointed directly to where An Songyu was and then headed towards the kitchen.
"Uncle Jianguo, where are you going?" Wang Henian asked An Songlin.
"He's going to the kitchen!" An Songlin called to his wife, leading the two of them to find An Songyu while glancing around.
This place is completely different from what I saw at the last village meeting.
"Uncle Jianguo went to the kitchen? Does that mean everything we're going to eat tonight was made by Uncle Jianguo and the others?" Wang Henian asked, quite surprised.
Men in Shuncheng are just as good at cooking as women.
However... in Shuncheng, the idea of valuing sons over daughters still exists quite a bit.
Therefore, many men probably haven't even stepped into the kitchen more than a few times in their lives.
For example, Wang Henian, who is now admired.
Sensing the strange looks from the three people around him, Wang Henian couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"
"Our Jiangcun used to be a farmhouse inn, but business wasn't great at first, and we didn't have many customers." An Songlin, not wanting to mock his guests, quickly changed the subject.
"So basically each family is busy on their own."
"Then everyone, regardless of age or gender, will have to do everything."
"Since the demolition of Jiangcun, several times when the villagers have gathered, they have had to make do with the villagers' food stalls to get together."
"This can be said to be the first time that the villagers have gathered together on their own land since they left Jiangcun."
"So when they received the call, almost all the Jiangcun residents who were able to come back did."
"Those who can now help in the kitchen are all people who used to be skilled in cooking in Jiangcun."
"So... people who aren't good cooks can't even get in?" Wang Henian clicked his tongue in astonishment.
An Songlin nodded with exceptional pride.
Xuan Ying looked at her husband with some helplessness, wondering if he was also one of those people who had no chance at all.
Fortunately, neither of the two people listening to An Songlin had such thoughts.
When the four of them found An Songyu, they saw her in a small cubicle on the second floor with Sister Yun and the others.
Now a large round table, and even some other things, have been placed inside.
It looks natural and no longer feels empty at all.
The group of people at the table, who seemed to have gotten their hands on some fruit and snacks from who-knows-where, were chatting and drinking tea while eating.
Upon seeing the four approaching, they immediately greeted them.
However, compared to An Songlin and his wife, they were more curious about Jian Ziyu and Wang Henian.
Chien Tzu-yu, in particular, has been seen visiting Jiangcun last year and Xingfu Garden this year.
He's firmly established himself as the son-in-law of Jiangcun.
It's just that the people of Jiangcun didn't have many opportunities to truly interact with him.
