"What a nice smell! I can smell it before I even enter the yard. How many delicious foods did you make?"
The first to come over were Li Wenying and her family of three.
As soon as I walked in, I was attracted by the dishes on the table in front of me, and my mouth was watering.
Liu Genshun and Zhuangzhuang were also surprised.
"Dad, I want to eat!"
"What nonsense! The guests haven't even arrived yet. What are you going to eat? What did your mother tell you at home? You have to be obedient when you get here. Look how sensible your younger siblings are. Take them to the backyard to play."
Zhuangzhuang looked at the food on the table reluctantly and took Xiaofeng and Xiaoxue to the backyard.
When guests come, Ji Huaian has to greet them.
Li Wenying took the initiative to help.
Lin Jiaojiao wanted to stop her, but when she said she wanted to learn some new dishes, she let her go.
Not long after, Jiang Hao came in with seven or eight people.
As soon as he entered the door, he walked around the whole house.
"Sister-in-law cleaned it up really well!"
"I told you before, my sister-in-law is not only an excellent cook, but also has a very high taste in life."
Several people nodded in agreement, praising the home's decoration and the food on the table one after another.
The whole room was bustling with activity!
Zhang Xiuqin and her husband came over not long after.
As soon as she entered the door, Zhang Xiuqin began to apologize, saying that her niece and niece-in-law had come, which delayed her and she was unable to come to help.
As he was about to help, he was stopped by Lin Jiaojiao.
"It's almost done! We don't know when Zhang Yaxin and the others will be here. Once everyone is here, we can take a seat."
As they were chatting, Jiang Hao suddenly ran over and said, "Sister-in-law, there's a teacher named Zhang at the door who said you invited her here!"
"Teacher Zhang."
Lin Jiaojiao hurried to the door.
When Teacher Zhang rushed over, she heard a commotion inside. Looking through the window, she saw men in military uniforms, which scared her!
I didn’t expect there would be so many people there at night. I felt shy and wanted to back off.
"Well, actually, I'm not that hungry..."
"Since you're here, I've prepared a table full of delicious dishes, waiting for you to taste them!"
Lin Jiaojiao saw what she was thinking and pulled her in directly.
Teacher Zhang has a pretty and gentle appearance, and is a very typical southern girl.
After entering the door, I felt the gazes of people around me and my ears started to turn red.
Lin Jiaojiao understood her embarrassment and specially introduced her identity.
Zhang Xiuqin is a kind-hearted person who loves to be lively. Now that she can't help much in the kitchen, she sits next to Teacher Zhang and talks with him.
The atmosphere gradually became harmonious.
But after a while, I started to feel a little distracted.
The dining table was filled with a large amount of food, with various aromas intertwined together.
Everyone has been hungry for the whole afternoon, how can they resist such temptation!
Several people with straightforward personalities secretly glanced at Jiang Hao.
Jiang Hao, after they reluctantly came down to the kitchen, quietly asked, "Sister-in-law, when can we start the feast? Everyone wants to taste your cooking."
Lin Jiaojiao looked at the people who were looking at her eagerly, feeling somewhat helpless: "There are still two who haven't come yet!"
Speak of Cao Cao and he will appear.
As soon as he said this, Zhang Yaxin and Liu Kanglin came over.
Unlike the afternoon meeting, Zhang Yaxin wore a blue-green long dress in the evening, a pair of brown and white low-heeled shoes, and her hair was re-styled and pinned with two thin red clips, which made her look delicate and cute.
The most important thing is that she was holding a bouquet of beautiful flowers in her hand.
The outermost circle is decorated with white and yellow frangipani, with a few red horseshoe flowers in the middle, very refreshing!
But it seems a bit out of place when paired with the party in front of us.
Ji Huaian was the first to break the awkwardness and greeted Liu Kanglin with a smile: "You're back!"
"Well, everything is done. I'm sorry I didn't make it to your wedding."
"It doesn't matter. My boss won't care about these things. Even though I didn't make it in time for the wedding, I made it in time for the celebration party!"
Hearing Jiang Hao's joke, Liu Kanglin smiled and nodded.
The atmosphere gradually warmed up again.
Zhang Yaxin was in a low mood.
As soon as she entered the door, she noticed the decoration and layout of the house.
I didn’t expect that this woman who has been causing a lot of trouble in the army recently also has such taste.
Thinking of this, his gaze fell back on Ji Huaian.
He is still as high-spirited, tall and handsome as ever.
Now he has been promoted to deputy brigade commander, and his future career can be said to be bright.
Thinking of this, he looked at Liu Kanglin who was sitting with Ji Huaian in the crowd.
No matter their looks or temperament, they are simply incomparable.
When her aunt introduced these two men to each other, she fell in love with Ji Huaian at first sight.
Unfortunately, Ji Huaian's family was in a really difficult situation. Not only did he lose his father early, he also had a rural mother, a younger sister who was less than ten years old, and two adopted children.
How can you support so many people with that little salary?
Liu Kanglin was different. His father was the county party secretary of their hometown, and his mother was the deputy director of a textile factory. Although there were quite a few children in his family, his family conditions were there, and he himself was the head of a regiment. Apart from his ugly appearance, he was the most suitable candidate.
After all, her situation is somewhat special.
Because of the problem of ingredients, the family was once in dire straits.
No matter how reluctant you are, you have to make the most rational choice.
Lin Jiaojiao was about to go to the living room to greet them when Li Wenying beside her suddenly grabbed her arm stealthily: "Are these the two you were waiting for? Why did you invite them here?"
“…”
Lin Jiaojiao found this a bit strange, so she briefly told her what happened at Zhang Xiuqin's house.
"Aunt Xiuqin, how could you be so confused? Don't you know that she knows? How could she agree to let you bring them here? This is so embarrassing! Look at that woman...why is she dressed like that and brought a bouquet of flowers? Can she eat or drink? She's so hypocritical! I can't stand people like that!"
The flowers do seem a bit out of place.
But for Lin Jiaojiao, who was born in the new century, she didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
Just curious, why did Li Wenying say it was embarrassing?
Was there any festival before?
"What happened between Huai'an and Liu Kanglin?"
Is there a competitive relationship?
"What Ji Huaian and Liu Kanglin? It's Xiao Ji and Zhang Yaxin! Forget it, let me tell you, it's actually not a big deal, it's all in the past."
Lin Jiaojiao felt that the person in front of her was getting more and more outrageous.
"Sister-in-law Xiuqin wanted to bring them together before, but then Zhang Yaxin disagreed and married Liu Kanglin for some reason."
"Between Liu Kanglin and Ji Huaian, did you choose Liu Kanglin?"
"Is this the point?!"
“…”
Isn't that the point?
