Chapter 222 Preparing for the Wedding Banquet
After setting the wedding date, what Mr. Chen was most concerned about was the wedding banquet.
Although he has retired for many years.
But during the time he lived in the village, he also felt Shen Qingyue's care for him.
In addition, everyone in the village treats Shen Qingyue as their own daughter.
In such days, after a long time, Mr. Chen also became very concerned.
If Shen Qingyue gets married, he can come out and prepare a banquet specifically for Shen Qingyue.
These words were brought by the fat chef Chen Huai!
Shen Qingyue was also moved when she heard this, because Mr. Chen used to be a master chef for state banquets.
Being able to prepare a banquet for her is a huge honor.
But even so, Shen Qingyue politely declined.
The main reason is that Mr. Chen is old, and it’s nice for him to grow some onions and garlic, go fishing, play chess, and occasionally make some wine when he has nothing to do!
This banquet thing is so tiring.
Shen Qingyue said to the fat chef Chen Huai: "I plan to go to the county's state-owned hotel to do it."
Although state-owned hotels are no longer as prosperous as they once were, they still retain their status as old-fashioned hotels.
The venue is very large.
In those days, some banquets were held in state-owned restaurants.
Any event held there will be reported in the local newspaper.
It was an indoor place, so it saved everyone the trouble.
When the fat chef Chen Huai heard that Shen Qingyue had made all the arrangements, he had no choice but to go back and tell his master.
After hearing this, Mr. Chen hurried out to make a phone call.
It would be fine to go to a state-owned restaurant, where the chefs were his juniors.
Needless to say, this banquet must be well organized.
The chef of the state-owned restaurant was flattered when he received the call from Mr. Chen. He promised repeatedly that he would prepare the banquet with all his heart!
Even if Mr. Chen doesn't tell him, he has to be treated well.
Shen Qingyue is a well-known figure in the county.
Moreover, the state-owned restaurants are so half-dead.
The number of restaurants opened by everyone is popping up like mushrooms after a rain.
The people in the kitchen of the state-owned restaurant talked behind people's backs, saying that the state-owned restaurant would go bankrupt sooner or later.
If their bad predictions were true, they might even ask Shen Qingyue for a job.
Her wedding banquet was naturally very thoughtful!
Shen Qingyue came to the county to hold a wedding banquet with 30 tables. There are two options: one is to provide the ingredients, and the other is to bring your own chicken, duck, fish and meat and have them processed for you, which is much cheaper.
Shen Qingyue chose the second option.
It's not about cheapness, but Shen Qingyue has many channels for supplying goods.
The freshness of the ingredients we get is better than that of the state-owned restaurants.
Everything for a wedding should be the best.
Before the wedding banquet, all the things were delivered here one after another.
Even the people in the kitchen of the state-owned restaurant were shocked.
It was so cold that the river was frozen, but there were still fresh fish, live shrimps, beef from Hei Niu, and three big fat pigs from Shen Qingyue's family.
Besides, there are few vegetables these days!
But Shen Qingyue has three fruit and vegetable greenhouses at home, and the vegetables are so fresh and moist that it makes you want to rub your eyes.
Is this a vegetable that can be grown in winter?
The chef of the state-owned restaurant saw all kinds of dishes available.
After a long pause, he finally sighed, "Such a delicious dish, anyone who cooks it will enjoy it."
No wonder Shen Qingyue had to deliver the ingredients herself. The apprentices and the cutters all rushed to prepare the dishes.
It's a pleasure to deal with.
The whole village was happy that Shen Qingyue was getting married.
Shen Qingyue even gave the three shops in the steel plant a day off.
There are many small shops near the new canteen of the steel plant.
Even if she doesn't open the door, everyone will have something to eat.
On the first day of their wedding, Shen Qingyue and He Zhengchen went to the old graves of Shen's parents on the mountain, cleaned them up, and removed the weeds around them. They also placed offerings, along with the village elders.
Aunt Dahua and the village chief are here.
Shen Qingyue said: "Dad...Mom, I brought He Zhengchen to see you."
He Zhengchen also kowtowed three times in a proper manner: "Dad, Mom, don't worry, I will definitely take good care of Yueyue in the future."
The old people in the village kept talking to the grave: "Mr. Shen and his wife, please bless these two children and make them happy and contented."
"Don't worry too much. Your children are the most promising in the village right now. The eldest child raises pigs so well that the whole village gives him thumbs up. Yueyue is even more amazing. She's leading everyone in our village to prosperity. The third child has also been admitted to high school, making her the first female high school student in our village... Don't worry..."
The village chief also chatted a few words with Aunt Dahua.
It's already very cold in winter, and the temperature in the mountains is even lower.
Just like that, Shen Qingyue and He Zhengchen said a few more words to the grave. After they made the grave better, they went down the mountain together.
Just now the sky was overcast and it looked like it was going to snow, but before they had walked halfway, the sky cleared up.
Aunt Dahua tightly grasped Shen Qingyue's cold palm and said, "Look, your parents must have known that you were getting married, so they used such nice weather to send you off."
"Oh, it seems your parents are quite satisfied with your marriage."
A few people talked for a while, which dispelled the sad atmosphere.
