Tang Yufen fled in panic, but the main hall of Baiweiju remained lively. The farce between the old lady and Tang Yufen reminded many elderly people of the past, and they couldn't help but reminisce with the younger generation about the bitter past and sweet present.
"Let's eat. Don't let irrelevant people affect your appetite," the old lady said softly.
Mr. Tang said with a smile, "I'll go get the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall now. It'll be cooked to perfection. I guarantee you'll feel like you're in heaven after you drink it."
He went to the kitchen with great enthusiasm. Everyone was looking forward to it and their mood was not affected by Tang Yufen. Only Gu Nianci was sullen. Although she forced a smile, her face was not good.
Ye Mingcheng knew about her worries and wanted to comfort her, but Ye Qingqing tugged at him and handed him a handful of pistachios. "Dad, have some pistachios. Uncle Tang made them himself with a secret seasoning. They're so delicious."
Tang Yuanyuan said with a smile, "I cooked this one myself. Try it and see if it's much different from my dad's cooking."
"You can't tell the difference, but it still tastes delicious. Yuanyuan, you're so virtuous! Whoever marries you will truly be blessed by their ancestors!"
Ye Qingqing ate a few, then deliberately told jokes to ease the atmosphere, and everyone laughed.
Wuchen ate several in a row, his eyes fixed intently on Tangyuanyuan, scrutinizing her from head to toe with a critical and hesitant look.
She was too old. "A woman three years older than a man is like a gold brick," and this fat woman was at least three gold bricks older than her. She was also too fat and too short. She still preferred the widow Wang, with big breasts, a round bottom, and a very thin waist. Many men in the village secretly watched the widow Wang bathe and said that they had to marry a woman like the widow Wang.
The fat woman is nowhere near as good as Widow Wang!
But considering that she can cook delicious food, Wuchen decided to generously forgive Tangyuanyuan for being old and fat. After all, eating is the most important thing in the world!
Tang Yuanyuan blushed bright red from being teased, feeling incredibly shy. She glared at Ye Qingqing several times, but then suddenly thought of a certain silly guy she hadn't seen all summer and was really missing him!
"Dad, I want to marry this fat woman. You'd better prepare the dowry for me!"
Wuchen's sudden shout interrupted the laughter in the room, leaving everyone speechless. They saw the bald-headed Wuchen pointing at Tangyuanyuan with a self-righteous look on his face.
"Hahahaha...I'm dying of laughter..."
Ye Qingqing burst into laughter, tears streaming down her face. Then everyone else joined in the laughter, teasing Wuchen.
Mr. Tang brought in Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, and the old lady said with a smile, "Little Tang, our Wuchen says he wants to marry your Yuanyuan, what do you think?"
"Okay, that depends on how much betrothal gift Wuchen prepares." Tang's father teased in a cooperative manner, and Tang Yuanyuan covered her mouth and laughed.
Wuchen's face was very serious. He touched his smooth head and said solemnly, "How about three cows? You've raised your daughter to be so fat, we can't treat you too badly."
"Haha... my stomach hurts so much..."
Ye Qingqing had just calmed down for a while when she was amused again and burst into laughter. Unable to hold back any longer, she leaned against Lu Mo next to her, laughing so hard she almost fell over.
Lu Mo smiled slightly, but his eyes were full of laughter. He supported Ye Qingqing, who was laughing so hard she was shaking, with one hand, afraid that she would fall down.
"What are you laughing at? It's only natural for a man to marry when he's of age and a woman to marry when she's of age. Dad, help me prepare the bride price, and I'll bring my chubby wife home tomorrow." Wuchen was quite anxious.
If I marry her tomorrow, she can eat delicious food every day. How wonderful!
Even she, who dares to eat raw meat, couldn't stand the pig feed that Ye Mingcheng made!
