Chapter 178 Birthday Banquet (Part 3)



When a guest came later, Old Lady Qin would personally grab a handful of peanuts, melon seeds, etc. to prevent Fu Qiumei and her family from putting them in their pockets again.

Fu Qiumei was unhappy with her behavior. Was she treating them like thieves?

If she hadn't smelled the delicious food and rich aroma of meat from Lao Qin's house from a long distance away, and thought that her family hadn't eaten meat since the Mid-Autumn Festival, and it was just the right time to replenish their bodies, she would not have come here to be humiliated and treated as a thief.

At noon, outside the yard, after a long string of firecrackers, dinner started on time. Today's dishes were cooked by Zhang Xiumei and Zhao Yan, while Xie Yuwei was responsible for lighting the fire.

Old Man Qin and his two sons were responsible for killing the chickens and cutting the meat.

Later, Li Yong and Wang Zhaodi also came to the kitchen to help.

Today's lunch is even more sumptuous than the last time when the Qin family finished building the house.

There were six meat dishes, namely braised fish, iron pot chicken with a lot of corn cakes, braised pork with potatoes, braised turtle, fried loach, and corn pork ribs soup.

The remaining four dishes were all vegetable dishes, but each dish was very generous in portion.

When everyone saw such a sumptuous meal, they exclaimed that the Qin family was very generous. Even during the Chinese New Year, they had never eaten such a sumptuous meal.

It can be seen how favored this little grandson is in the Qin family.

But they all saw that Qin Han was wearing a gold bracelet, which cost more than 40 yuan per gram, and one gram was equivalent to a month's salary for a worker outside.

Even if they deduct the annual expenses of their family, they may not be able to save forty yuan.

Qin Han's pair of bracelets cost at least seven or eight hundred yuan. I don't know how Qin's family members are so confident that they are not afraid that someone will take them off.

But this is not what they care about. At this moment, people who have never eaten Lao Qin’s food are shocked by the cooking skills.

When they first ate meat, they thought it was delicious because they hadn't eaten meat for a long time.

But when they ate the vegetables, they found that the taste was no worse than meat.

With cooking skills like these, you can apply for the job of chef in a state-owned restaurant and be guaranteed to have many customers.

Old Mrs. Qin knew that Fu Qiumei's family had ugly eating habits, so she tried to prevent them from sitting at separate tables so that she could put all the delicious food into her own bowls.

She specially arranged Fu Qiumei's family at one table, and if there was no room, she asked them to stand.

It turned out that the people in the Li family were a bunch of selfish people. When they saw the delicious food on the table, no one gave way to anyone else and they just picked it up and put it in their mouths.

It's a rare opportunity to have such a sumptuous meal. If they don't eat more, they don't know when they will have the chance to eat it again in the future.

Xiaobao originally wanted to eat the chicken legs, but Fu Qiumei's other two daughters-in-law quickly gave them to their sons.

Xiaobao, who didn't get to eat the chicken leg, started crying immediately. Fu Qiumei didn't think much of it and went to the next table without saying a word, wanting to get a chicken leg.

As a result, all the chicken legs were gone. After all, there were only two chicken legs on the table, and every family brought their children, so there were not enough for their own table.

So Fu Qiumei found Old Lady Qin and wanted her to get another chicken leg from the kitchen for her grandson, but Old Lady Qin directly replied, "No."

Indeed, there weren't any. There were forty chickens in total, just one for each table. There were no leftovers.

But Fu Qiumei didn't believe that her family didn't prepare an extra dish. Seeing Xiaobao crying heartbreakingly, he saw Qin Han and Qin Qing each had a chicken leg in their bowls, and immediately came up with an idea.

Qin Han is the birthday boy today, so naturally we can’t target him, but we can target Qin Qing.

She didn't believe that if she really took a chicken leg from Qin Qing, the Qin family could ask for it back. That would be too embarrassing.

So she seized the opportunity and quickly reached into Qin Qing's bowl, trying to take the chicken leg away.

Little did she know that her little trick could not escape Qin Han's eyes. Seeing that Fu Qiumei's dirty hands were about to touch the chicken leg, Qin Han decisively took the chicken leg away and gave it to Qin Qing: "Sister, eat the chicken leg!"

"Thank you, brother!" Qin Qing put down the pork ribs in his hand, and then took the chicken leg handed over by Qin Han.

When Fu Qiumei saw the chicken leg in Qin Qing's hand, she smiled and said, "Little sister, can you give your chicken leg to little brother?"

Qin Qing looked at Fu Qiumei's scary smile and suddenly didn't dare to speak.

At this time, Qin Han said: "Since you are the older brother, shouldn't you give in to your younger sister? Why are you fighting with your younger sister for the chicken leg? Shame on you!"

The villagers at the nearby tables all felt that what Qin Han said made sense. They all criticized Fu Qiumei for being a bad boy and for snatching the chicken leg from someone else's child's bowl. She was really disrespectful to her elders.

What's more, the Qin family treated us to a free meal today. It would have been fine if he wasn't grateful, but he even snatched the chicken leg from the host's granddaughter. What a terrible person.

In the end, Fu Qiumei returned to her seat in shame. When she returned, most of the dishes on the table had been eaten, but the Qin family obviously did not plan to add any more dishes.

She could only curse them for being a bunch of ungrateful people while piling the remaining food into her own bowl.

However, the white rice in Old Qin's family is delicious, and Old Mrs. Qin even specially steamed a lot of sweet potatoes on the white rice.

The rice mixed with the sweetness of sweet potatoes makes it even more delicious.

At the last meal, not only were all the dishes on the table eaten up, but even the steamed rice and sweet potatoes were finished.

Not only did they enjoy the meal, but the dogs also had a great New Year and had all the bones they could eat.

After dinner, Captain Liu's wife took the lead in helping with cleaning, and women from other villages also volunteered to help. After cleaning the table, the men and children moved the table and chairs away.

As for Fu Qiumei's family, they ran away after the fight. Old Lady Qin didn't expect them to work, so it was better for them to leave so that she wouldn't have to worry about it.
