The pig with a red cloth tied around its neck rushed over. The sharpened knife reflected the light in the sun. The big fat pig put its four legs up on the haystack and let out a mournful cry. The last sound stopped abruptly, and there was pork all over the ground.

Fearing that the blood outside would disturb Qi Wanfeng, Sun Bailian pulled him into the house and did not let him go out. He allowed him to go out only after the pig outside was killed and cleaned up.

Many people came to the house to help today. Some washed vegetables and some washed meat by the well. Cao Gang went to the town to bring Aning and Xuanxuan, and Mrs. Luo brought her grandchildren and daughter-in-law. The children were playing in groups, and the adults were helping with the work.

All the tables and chairs in the house were moved from home, and tables were set up outside.

Fortunately, the big kitchen in the house was ready, and the cut vegetables were brought over and placed on the long table outside. Cao Dapeng could now also serve as a half-chef, cooking in the kitchen. Cao Xiangnan would come over from time to time to give instructions on how to make some things. There were many people coming today, so he couldn't stay in the kitchen to work, and had to run around.

Many people from the village came, and the whole family of the invited people came together, and it was lively and noisy.

"Dad, mom, you are here, please sit inside." Cao Xiangnan saw his father and mother coming, and his eldest brother and second brother's families also came with them, all the big and small ones came. He called out to his eldest brother, but he was too lazy to even say hello to Cao Laoer.

Cao Xiangnan took the basket from his mother, which was covered with a piece of cloth. He took it without opening it. From what he knew about his mother, there were only vegetables and eggs underneath. He didn't expect them to give him anything good.

"Si'er, you built a big house today. You will live a good life in the future." Chen Zhu said, looking at the things in the house.

Cao Xiangnan did not expect that his fifth brother Cao Gaojin also came back from the academy. His attitude was neither cold nor warm, and he said, "Fifth brother, you are back too."

As for this Cao Gaojin, in his memory, this fifth brother is a selfish person like his mother. Not only did he study and eat the family's money since he was a child, but he never helped the family do anything when he came back. He always said that studying was the most important thing. Moreover, this person thought that he was great because he had read a few books. He looked down on the people in the village, including his brothers.

On weekdays, it is not certain that this fifth brother would come back for something at home. I am afraid there is something behind this.

"Fourth brother, you moved out and built a house without telling me such a big thing. If my mother hadn't sent someone to tell me, I wouldn't have known that my fourth brother moved out." Cao Gaojin only knew that his fourth brother moved out of the house after receiving the message from his mother.

If he hadn't come back today and heard what his mother and second brother said, he wouldn't have known that his fourth brother was so rich now and built such a big house. He ate vegetables and tofu in school and never had a bite of meat. His fourth brother was now rich but he was reluctant to give him a little money to study. He was also dissatisfied with this fourth brother in his heart.

Cao Xiangnan glanced at his mother and didn't know what his mother said to his fifth brother, but he didn't care no matter what his mother said to his fifth brother. After hearing what Cao Gaojin said, Cao Xiangnan said, "Fifth brother, you should focus on studying in school, and don't let these trivial matters at home disturb your studies."

Cao Gaojin didn't expect his fourth brother to say this, and he didn't know what to say for a moment.

"Fourth brother, this house is so big. It must have cost a lot of money to build this house with green bricks and big tiles." Cao Laoer was also a shameless man. He asked with a shameless face, as if he didn't see that his fourth brother didn't want to pay attention to him at all, "Now that you have money, you are reluctant to spend some at home." "Ahem..." Cao's father coughed heavily, his face didn't look good, and glanced at the second brother.

Cao Laoer received the look from his father and quickly shut up. Wang Yan from his family quickly opened her mouth to say good things, "Congratulations to fourth uncle for building a big house. Don't forget everyone when you live a good life. "

Cao Xiangnan ignored these people and led his father and mother in to sit down. When he saw Wanfeng inside, he went over and said something to him. Qi Wanfeng listened to her husband and came over to call people. Now she was no longer the fourth daughter-in-law in the compound who allowed her mother to beat and scold her at will. She stood straight in front of her mother, "Dad, mother, brother, brother..."

"Yeah." Chen Zhu had many dissatisfactions with Qi Wanfeng. It was just such a devilish hoof that made his fourth son not recognize him as his mother. "Wanfeng, you have been pregnant for several months, right? In all these years, you have only given birth to a little brother for my fourth uncle. This time, you must give birth to a big fat boy for my fourth uncle. "Wang Yan stared at Qi Wanfeng's belly and said with a fake smile.

In the past, they often ridiculed Qi Wanfeng for not being able to give birth to a boy.

"Thanks to my second brother Mo Jiyan. "Qi Wanfeng also saw through the hypocrisy on Wang Yan's lips, he said with a fake smile.

Cao Xiangnan didn't want Qi Wanfeng to stay here to deal with these people, so he found an excuse to send Qi Wanfeng away. He didn't have time to stay here with them later, so he asked someone to take them outside to find a place to sit, and he went out.

Cao Gaojin in the back kept staring at his fourth brother, with a greedy look in his eyes. Cao Laoer's eyes darted around to see if there were any valuables in the house. Few people in this family didn't have other thoughts, and they followed the people who led them outside, found an empty table and sat down as a family, and the seats were still very crowded.

"Mom, fourth uncle's house is really big, I also want to live in such a big house. "The fourth boy of Wang Yan's family spoke so loudly that everyone could hear it.

"This is fourth uncle's house, not ours. We live in a big house too. There's no need to live in fourth uncle's house." Wang Yan coaxed him quickly, fearing that this little ancestor would make trouble and upset mother and fifth uncle.

"No, I don't, I want to live here."

The guests invited from the town all came in horse-drawn carriages, and it was very spectacular to see so many carriages coming in Caojia Village for so many years, which made everyone's eyes stare.

"Boss Zhang, you're here, please come in, come in. Well, you're here, why do you need to give a gift? We are all family, why be so polite. "Cao Xiangnan took the gift from the other party and said.

"Yes, yes, congratulations." Boss Zhang said with a bow.

"Boss Zhu, please come in."

"Boss Li, you are here too, I was wondering why you haven't come yet..."

Everyone who came brought gifts, and Cao Xiangnan asked Sun Ji to register them one by one. He confiscated the gifts from the villagers and returned them all, but it was difficult to return these gifts. These people came because they gave him enough face.

The dishes in the kitchen have been cooked. A pig was killed and a lot of meat was stewed in a big pot. , stewed with enough spices, stewed until it was tasty, fragrant and tender. As usual, we stewed pork offal with radish, cooked a dish with pork blood, fried pork head with radish, cooked a big pot of pickled fish, and a few vegetarian dishes, five meat and five vegetarian, so there would be ten dishes on the table. In addition, we stewed a big pot of meat soup and cooked five big pots of white rice. The pots at home were not enough, so a lot of it was brought by everyone when they came.

When Cao Xiangnan entered the kitchen, everything was almost ready, and the tables moved in from outside were already full. There were more people coming than he had imagined, but there was also a lot of food prepared, so there was no need to worry about not having enough food even with so many people.

Two carriages came in slowly, the carriage in front was pulled by two horses, and there was another one following behind. Cao Xiangnan saw the carriages coming in from a distance, and he knew who was coming, so he hurried to greet them.

"Master, be careful." Ershun held the master's hand and led the master down.

Fang Ziye felt uncomfortable in the carriage all the way, and his face was a little pale when he got out. Ershun carefully helped the master down, followed by his black-faced guards. As soon as Cao Xiangnan walked in and saw Fang Ziye's face was not very good, he asked, "What's wrong, are you feeling unwell?"

"Nothing." Fang Ziye raised his hand to let Ershun not help him, and said to Cao Xiangnan, "Congratulations."

"Thank you, I'm glad you came, you can go into the house and have a rest." Cao Xiangnan suspected that Fang Ziye was carsick. Some people will feel uncomfortable after riding in a carriage because of carsickness. He saw that Fang Ziye's face was not very good.

Shopkeeper Fang handed over the gift in his hand, Cao Xiangnan took it, and said, "I'm very happy that you are here, why do you need to give me a gift? You are so polite."

"I have to give it." Shopkeeper Fang smiled and stood behind his boss.

"Manager Liu."

"Congratulations."

The carriage stopped outside, and Cao Xiangnan led the people into the house.

There were already quite a few people sitting outside, and they were all curious when they saw the group of people passing by.

Sitting with his father and mother, and the children of his eldest and second brothers were making noises, Cao Gaojin was already unhappy, and he couldn't lose his temper. Seeing four people leading a group of people back home, he saw that they were dressed in gorgeous clothes and were obviously people of status. Now that his fourth brother's life was good, he knew people of status, and he was envious and jealous in his heart.

"Wanfeng." Cao Xiangnan came in and saw his Wanfeng. He called people over and introduced them to everyone, "Big Boss, Manager Fang, Manager Liu, this is my wife Qi Wanfeng." He didn't know how to address this person yet. He only knew that he was the big boss of Yipinzhai. As for how to address her, he really didn't know.

As if he understood what Cao Xiangnan was thinking, Fang Ziye said, "Just call me Ziyu." His eyes fell on Qi Wanfeng's bulging belly, and a thought flashed through his mind, which made him stunned, and his eyes were staring at the other person's belly. Ershun didn't expect that his master would let people call him by his name. Qi

Wanfeng nodded to them, and found that the other person's eyes fell on his belly, and he was a little embarrassed.

"Wanfeng, Ziyu is feeling a little uncomfortable after coming here by carriage. I'll take him to the room to rest. Where are An'an and the others?" Cao Xiangnan asked when he didn't see the kids.

"They are all outside." Qi Wanfeng said, "Then you should take Ziyu to the room to rest for a while."

The children were all at home, so Cao Xiangnan had nothing to worry about.

"Ziyu, go lie down on the bed and rest for a while. Everything in the room is new." Cao Xiangnan led Fang Ziye into the room. The windows were specially made with curtains to block the light. He walked over and pulled down the curtains to block the view of outsiders.

"Okay, thank you." Fang Ziye sat on the bed and looked around the room, feeling that it was very special.

With his second servant serving inside, Cao Xiangnan couldn't stay here, so he led everyone out, and took Fang and Liu to eat. At this time, the table outside had already started to be served.

When the people outside saw Liu, they all greeted him. There happened to be an empty seat, so Liu took Fang and sat down together.

One by one, meat dishes were served, big bowls of meat, and even the vegetarian dishes were full of oil and water, which made everyone dazzled. Five meat dishes and five vegetarian dishes were served, and for those who only had meat a few times a year, this meal was the best meal they had ever had.

In the Cao family compound, the family sat at a table. As soon as Cao Adie started to eat, the children grabbed chopsticks to pick up meat. They hadn't eaten meat for a long time. Cao Laoer quickly put meat into his bowl. Wang Yan looked at the children beside him and filled the bowl with meat. Cao Adie saw several children fighting for food, but he didn't say anything and ate silently.

Chen Zhu was dissatisfied again, but he didn't dare to say anything.

Cao Gaojin's eyes were full of disgust. He didn't want to sit with such a family. It made him feel ashamed.

"Everyone, eat, don't be polite, and make sure you eat your fill. There are too many guests today. Don't mind if we don't treat you well enough." Cao Xiangnan walked around, greeted them, and asked everyone to eat heartily. He would take care of the food.

Now that they had eaten their fill of meat, everyone was very enthusiastic when they saw Cao Silang and greeted him.
