Chapter 335: Feces in the Brain
The villagers were also stunned when they ate such dishes.
In fact, in the past, being poor was not a shameful thing to do. But doesn’t Erquan’s wife say every day that she is a wealthy family?
We invited a chef from outside to prepare this banquet, how come it turned out to be so stingy and poor?
Mrs. Zhao was so angry that she almost threw her chopsticks. Zhao Facai glared at her.
Mrs. Zhao endured it again and again, but finally couldn't help but say something ambiguous: "Did you forget to put the meat in?"
"Eat you!" Zhao Facai stuffed a piece of radish into her mouth.
"Bah! You know I hate eating radishes the most, why don't you give me a piece of meat?" She glared at him.
"Isn't this nothing?" Zhao Facai roared.
Following his roar, the whole audience fell silent.
Zhao Facai quickly covered his mouth.
Ye Er had a completely expressionless face as he ate his vegetarian dishes, as if everything that was happening before his eyes had nothing to do with him.
Ye Peng felt extremely embarrassed and couldn't help but glance at Wei.
Wei's face was extremely ugly, and he slammed the table and stood up: "Those cooks... I don't know how they work! I give them so much money, and they actually serve this kind of food! I'm going to talk to them right now!"
Having said that, he ran to the kitchen angrily.
The cooks were washing pots and finishing up when they saw Wei, the head chef, a fat man in his thirties, smiled and said, "What's up, boss?"
"How can you serve food like this?" Wei started to scold everyone he saw. "There's a whole table of food, but there's only a few pieces of meat on top, and the bottom is all vegetables. You've made me lose face!"
The chef was unhappy when he heard this: "So what do you want? When you came to me a few days ago, I told you that when other wealthy families hold banquets, they have to spend at least 600 coins per table to be considered decent. You only want 280 coins for this table, and you want eight meat dishes and two vegetable dishes. You should be happy that I can serve you the dishes!"
"Why are you still whining here? Are the meat and vegetables free? Or are the oil, salt and rice all blown in by the wind? Don't we need to be paid for our work? Only rich families hire people to work for them. Why are you pretending to be rich when you don't have money?"
Wei was so angry that he fell backwards: "You said it was okay at that time..."
"I did say yes. But I also told you that it would be 280 wen per table and the portions of meat and vegetables would be small, and you said yes too!"
"you......"
Wei was so angry that he almost jumped up and down.
What she was thinking at the time was, since she had agreed to it, eight meat dishes and two vegetable dishes, how small could the portions be? At least half of it is meat. The worst that can happen is that the meat isn't that fresh.
Who would have thought that this damn chef could make things so ugly!
Wei said in a trembling voice: "No, do it again!"
The cook snorted coldly: "What are you thinking? You said you would cook it? Now there is no food, how can I cook it?"
Wei's eyes went dark.
Another older cook stepped forward and said, "If you have chickens and ducks in your village, you can buy some and add one chicken and one duck to each table."
Wei gritted his teeth and said, "Just do it this way. Add a chicken and a duck to each table."
The cook said, "Okay. You can buy the chicken and duck yourself, and I'll charge you a processing fee, 30 cents per piece."
Wei's heart was bleeding, but there was nothing he could do.
I really can't afford to lose face!
After the villagers had been feasting for a while, they saw Wei come out with several cooks.
The cooks apologized to the villagers and said they had made a mistake and had read the wrong order. They said there were two good days in the next two days and there would be a banquet in another village tomorrow, but that family was very stingy and only gave 280 coins per banquet.
Wei offered 680 wen per seat, and they got it mixed up.
Now I'm going to add two more big meat dishes for you.
Wei quickly pulled Mrs. Du and Old Lady Ye into the house and asked them to help buy chickens and ducks.
Wei said, "Sister-in-law, your family has a lot of chickens and ducks, right? The last time I visited your house, there were more than 20 chickens and seven or eight ducks."
Mrs. Du said, "Okay. I won't charge you more. I'll sell it to you at the price outside, 20 cents per pound for chicken and 18 cents per pound for duck."
Wei almost vomited blood. They were sisters-in-law, yet they sold it at such a high price!
But now he was in a hurry, so Wei could only reluctantly agree: "Okay."
At that time, he went to the Du family's house and caught more than 20 chickens and ducks, and then went to Ye Ershu, Ye Lizheng and Tie Niu's houses to buy some.
Because they made money, these families raised a lot of chickens and ducks, and they caught enough.
The chefs worked quickly and fried the chicken and duck, and they were served on the table in no time.
With these two big meat dishes, the banquet finally looked presentable.
Because of this leak, the villagers dared not accept too much gifts from them. They only accepted a little and returned it. Every time they returned a gift, they would say:
"I don't know how those cooks work, they turned my wedding banquet into this."
Villagers: "......"
......
Ye Caiping was having dinner with her two daughters.
We ate braised chicken with abalone and bamboo shoots with three fresh ingredients, and after the meal, each person had a bowl of bird's nest.
After eating, Ye Caiping went to the courtyard to play with the dog.
At this time, Mrs. Zhao ran in: "Cai Ping."
Ye Caiping put down the dogtail grass: "Yes. Auntie has finished the banquet, why is it so late? Oh, where are my parents?"
Logically, they should be back by now.
"You don't know how funny that banquet was." Mrs. Zhao chuckled and continued to recount the wedding banquet. "I don't believe you saying it was the cook's fault."
"The 280-cent table is theirs!"
"Let alone this banquet, even if we wanted to host a better banquet in the past, it would cost 300 coins per table for five meat dishes and three vegetable dishes. But she didn't even have 300 coins! She even ordered eight meat dishes and two vegetable dishes, and asked outsiders to prepare them."
Ye Caiping raised her eyebrows. As expected of Wei, that was her style!
In the past, whenever she was stingy, Ye Erquan would pull her back and make amends for her. But now Ye Erquan has completely ignored her and it has become a joke.
Mrs. Zhao suddenly asked cautiously, "Well, where is Jin'er?"
Ye Peng is getting married today, and she really wants to know how Jin'er is doing.
After all, Ye Peng had forced her to get married before.
"Grandma Zhao is looking for me?" Ye Jin'er came out of the room and yawned, "I was just about to take a nap."
Mrs. Zhao saw that Ye Jin'er had let her hair down, but her face was still as bright as ever, her eyes were clear, and there was no sign of fatigue at all.
It was obvious that no one cared about Ye Peng at all.
Mrs. Zhao: "Ye Peng is getting married today..."
Ye Jin'er: "Oh, I know. But our family is half-disassociated from theirs. We only interact with my second uncle and Yinhua."
"If Yinhua gets married next time, we will go. But Ye Peng... forget it, I always feel that he is not in his right mind."
Mrs. Zhao listened to Ye Jin'er's words and nodded: "That's right. When he rushed out that day and said he had stripped Wei Xiaojuan's clothes, I felt that he had shit in his brain."
After chatting for a few more words, Mrs. Zhao left.
Now she understood.
Ye Peng was still stuck in the mud and struggling with himself, but Ye Jin'er had long since stopped taking Ye Peng seriously and it was all gone.
That’s right, Ye Peng is not in a clear mind, just like a fool.
