Li Huike and Liu Aidang were also happy, after all, they were making money with Liu Jing and Liu Yun, and they couldn't wait for the two of them to have a better life.
Moreover, Liu Yun and Liu Jing are very kind to their children, and they genuinely like Liu Yun and Liu Jing's children.
The two of them didn't think their child could compare to others; they were simply not in the same league. They compared how others raised their children to how theirs were raised.
The triplets and twins were taught by their father from a young age, and another child had a father who graduated from Peking University and taught him from childhood, and later he had one-on-one private tutoring.
As for their family, they simply grew up independently in school. Since they started from different points, there's no point in comparing them.
However, the two did not believe that Liu Aiguo's child had a chance of getting into university, but they thought Liu Jing's child had a very good chance.
However, since the triplets did so well on the exam, they definitely won't be short of gifts. Moreover, Xiao Yi (Liu Jing's eldest son) should have no problem getting into university; it's just a matter of whether it's a better university or a less prestigious one.
Since preparations have been made for the triplets, Xiao Yi's must be prepared as well. These all need to be prepared well and cannot be neglected.
As for Liu Aiguo's twins, with their grades and attitude towards learning, getting into university is just a pipe dream. Even if they did get in, they could just take something from home; there's no need for them to prepare anything carefully. The two families aren't that close yet.
As for what the Liu family was thinking, the Yu family didn't know. Now that they knew the results, they were sure the school was a sure thing. They were just waiting to receive the notification so they could hold a celebration banquet to help them get into the university.
After all, Yu Ling and his generation all went to university, but none of them held a graduation banquet. It wouldn't be appropriate for their family to hold one, so they told others that they were holding a teacher appreciation banquet. After all, their family had a provincial champion and a provincial runner-up, so it was only right to hold a teacher appreciation banquet.
A week after the results were released, the admission notices for the three students arrived one after another, and all of them were admitted to their first-choice universities.
Liu Yun started preparing after receiving the notification letter, but she had no experience and didn't know what dishes to cook.
Liu Yun: "Mom, what exactly do we need to do?"
Mother Yu: "Meat and vegetables are essential; we can order a menu first."
Upon hearing the name Ding, Liu Yun was at a loss again, "I don't know how to do this either!"
After saying that, he grabbed Yu's mother's hand again, "Mom, Dad, I'm entrusting this to you."
Mother Yu: "I knew you wouldn't know these things, don't worry! But since we're having a banquet, we can't be stingy, we can't skimp on the meat and vegetables, and the portions have to be large."
Father Yu: "And fish is also essential; try to buy carp."
Mother Yu: "Let's decide on the menu first. It's usually ten dishes, and for fish, we'll have one braised carp per table. The chicken can be stewed, like chicken stew with mushrooms. You should be able to buy duck, right?"
Liu Yun: "Chicken, duck, fish, goose, rabbit, pork, and mutton are all fine."
Mother Yu: "Then let's make a spicy stir-fried duck with konjac. There's still a lot of konjac in the fridge, so we can use it all up. If we can buy a goose, we can add a northern dish to it and make a braised goose in an iron pot. We can make a cold rabbit dish, and the mutton can be made into large slices. As for the pork, let's make steamed pork with rice flour."
Father Yu: "Since we've made steamed pork with rice flour, let's make potatoes too! We can steam potatoes on the bottom and steam pork with rice flour on top."
Mother Yu: "Okay, how many dishes are there?"
Yu Qianhe: "Seven."
Liu Yun: "We're still short three."
Father Yu: "Six meat dishes are enough. Just make sure there are enough. And three vegetable dishes will do."
Mother Yu: "These meat and vegetables are enough to make ends meet. Green beans are selling well now, so let's stir-fry some long beans and water spinach too! Do you have any red dates, longans, sugar, or sweet wine at home?"
Liu Yun: "Yes, there are still quite a few."
Mother Yu: "Then let's make another sweet soup, a sweet soup made with red dates and longan."
Liu Yun: "Okay, I'll buy the groceries. But how many tables are we planning to prepare, and how much food do we need?"
Mother Yu: "Fish, one per table; chicken, one per two tables; duck, add some konjac, one per three tables; goose, one per two tables; mutton and pork, one jin per table; vegetables, just do what you think is best."
Liu Yun: "How many tables?"
Mr. Yu: "I'm sure there will be a lot of old guys coming, and there should be some others too, maybe a little over one table."
Yu Qianhe: "I have Brother Shen's family and some colleagues here, so there might be two tables."
Liu Yun: "I'm not sure about my family's side, but two tables is the minimum."
As for my hometown, I don't know if anyone will come. If they do, it'll be another table full of people.
Mother Yu: "All the teachers sit at one table together, and don't forget the private tutors either. Tuantuan, Yuanyuan, and Beibei, how many classmates and friends do you have!"
Tuantuan: "We have a good relationship with the whole class, so if we invite people, most of them will probably come."
Yu Qianhe: "Then let's invite them all!"
Tuantuan: "There are 21 people in our class. Wouldn't it be too many people if we invited everyone?"
Yu Qianhe: "It's alright. Since this is a celebration for you, what kind of celebration would it be if we didn't invite any of your classmates and friends? If we exclude the three of you and a few more friends, that would be about three tables, so there would be a total of nine tables."
Mother Yu: "If we're preparing food, we need to prepare at least eleven tables, leaving room for two more. After all, this is a joyous occasion. The top three schools in the city are all in our house. Families with students or children will likely want to come and share in the joy. There will definitely be quite a few people bringing their children that day."
Father Yu: "We need to buy enough candy. If they're not here for the banquet, but just to share in the joy, then we have to give them candy."
