Liu Guoxing carried Deng Wanjun to the bridal chamber and gently placed her on the bed. At this time, He Xiuzhen brought a bowl of dumplings to Deng Wanjun. She took it with a smile, took a bite, but her face was full of confusion.
"How can this be raw?" Deng Wanjun asked softly.
He Xiuzhen looked at her lovingly. "Wanjun, are you going to have a baby or not?"
Deng Wanjun was confused, but she still chose to tell the truth. "Life."
He Xiuzhen didn't say anything else and went out with the dumplings. Deng Wanjun still didn't react.
Liu Guoxing looked at her lovely appearance and explained with a smile: "This is the custom in our place. Eating raw dumplings on the wedding night symbolizes the early birth of a son."
After hearing this, Deng Wanjun's face flushed and she lowered her head shyly.
Liu Guoxing gently held her hand and said softly: "Wanjun, from today on, you are my wife. I will treat you well for the rest of my life."
Deng Wanjun raised her head, her eyes sparkling with happiness. She nodded and said, "Guoxing, I will love you forever."
The two smiled at each other, and the atmosphere of happiness filled the whole room.
Then Liu Yanran brought a bowl of noodles to Deng Wanjun. "Fourth sister-in-law, eat something first."
Deng Wanjun smiled and thanked him, then took the noodles and started eating. Liu Yanran looked at the beautiful Deng Wanjun and couldn't help but sigh in her heart, "Brother is so lucky."
"Yanran, when are you and your boyfriend going to get married?" Deng Wanjun suddenly asked. She knew Liu Yanran had a boyfriend, but she had never met him.
Liu Yanran's face flushed instantly. She lowered her head and fiddled with her fingers. "He's out on a mission. I'll think about it when I have time."
Deng Wanjun smiled and said, "That has to be planned in advance. Marriage is a major event in life."
Liu Yanran nodded, "Yes, I understand, Sister-in-law, you rest here, I'll come and bring you lunch at noon."
"Okay, go ahead." Deng Wanjun said, and continued eating noodles. She thought to herself that she must live a good life with Liu Guoxing in the future.
At this time, all the relatives of the Deng family had arrived at Liu Guoxing's courtyard. Well, the Liu family was so generous, so why was the house a little small? Could it really accommodate so many people in the family?
As if to answer their questions, Liu Chunping came out to greet them. "This is Guoxing and Wanjun's home. The other children's yards are all nearby."
The Deng family members then changed their expressions, saying that in this era, people who could afford more than 10,000 yuan at once would not live in such a house. However, the brothers and sisters all had houses, so it seemed that Wanjun really married into an extraordinary family!
But why was there no smell of food? They were really hungry after a busy morning! Liu Guoxing came out and handed out cigarettes. He gave them to everyone, regardless of gender. Those who didn't smoke could take candy from the tray nearby. Cao Kun stood in the back, working tirelessly.
At this time, He Xiuzhen had just sent the bowls to the kitchen. Knowing that the meal was ready, she came back to call for help. "Dear relatives and friends, please move over. There are too many people here today, and we can't place them in the courtyard. Please come with us to the side."
Although He Xiuzhen had a slight accent, everyone still understood her and followed her to Liu Yanran's house.
After walking for about 5 minutes, they arrived at Liu Yanran's house. When the Deng family saw it, they saw that this three-courtyard courtyard was once occupied by high-ranking officials or royal relatives. Now, only people with some wealth could live there.
The Liu family’s feast has been set on the table. The first dishes served are 6 cold dishes, which are not really cold dishes, but are just prepared in advance and placed on the table.
To make cucumber salad, cut fresh cucumbers into evenly thin slices and place them in a bowl. Next, combine minced garlic, chili oil, soy sauce, and vinegar and stir to create a dressing. Pour the dressing over the cucumber slices and gently stir to ensure each slice fully absorbs the flavor.
To make this cold beef salad, first slice the cooked beef thinly and place it on a plate. Then, in a small bowl, combine the minced garlic, chili oil, soy sauce, and vinegar and stir well to create the sauce. Pour the sauce evenly over the beef slices, allowing the beef to fully absorb the flavor.
To prepare the cold black fungus salad, first wash the soaked black fungus, tear it into small pieces, blanch it in boiling water, remove it and drain it. Then put the black fungus in a large bowl and add minced garlic, chili oil, soy sauce, vinegar and other seasonings, and mix well.
A plate of boiled shrimp, the red shells exuding an enticing aroma. Each shrimp is plump and tender, as if telling of their deliciousness.
The red dates next to it are round and plump, and their bright red color makes people salivate.
The roast duck exudes an enchanting aroma, with a golden, crispy skin and juicy meat. This cold dish is so delicious that it makes people drool.
These cold dishes look so delicious that people can’t help but want to take a bite.
The six meat dishes are all very delicious and each one is mouth-watering.
The first thing that caught my eye was the bright red, fragrant braised pork. The meat, with its alternating layers of fat and lean, was stewed to a soft, melt-in-your-mouth texture, yet not greasy. Every bite revealed the rich aroma of the meat and the unique flavor of the seasoning.
Next up is the sweet and sour pork ribs. The vibrant colors of this dish, with the golden ribs coated in red sauce, make one drool. A bite reveals a sweet and sour flavor, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with just the right amount of sweet and sour, giving one a delightful taste experience.
The steamed fish is also a delicacy not to be missed. The fish is tender and smooth, melting in your mouth. The subtle flavor of scallions and ginger blends with the aroma of the steamed fish soy sauce, making the whole dish even more delicious.
