Chapter 284: Difficult to Serve
It was a stew that had been placed on the coal stove and simmered for a whole afternoon.
After all, in this era, there are no pressure cookers to use.
For stews, I usually prefer a casserole and simmer it slowly on a coal stove.
Only Liu Qi's family could be so extravagant. If it were any other family, they would not dare to eat and drink so lavishly.
Just the fish, the chicken, and the pig's trotters all require money and meat coupons to buy.
But you can't grow it at home.
It's impossible to kill a pig just for a future daughter-in-law.
This chicken was actually killed from our own home and then made into a crispy chicken.
As soon as everyone sat down at the table, they began to eat.
Liu Jin is worthy of being from the Propaganda Department, he speaks in style.
He filled his glass first, then checked the glasses of the other men, poured a glass for Du Qianqian as well, and said to her:
"Comrade Du, this is your first time visiting our home.
I hope you will forgive me if there is any inadequacy in my care.
I hope everyone will raise this glass of wine and wish our family happiness, safety and health."
Du Qianqian didn't expect Liu Jin to be so eloquent.
She didn't mean to just sit there and say nothing.
So she took Liu Qian and thanked Liu Jin.
When He Zhu saw that her three sons, daughter and son-in-law were all present, the corners of her mouth curled up, showing how happy she was.
The same goes for Liu Qi.
He has been the captain of so many teams, but what makes him happiest is not getting promoted or making money.
The most important thing is to see his children come back home and hang around him and his wife.
After working hard for most of my life, I just want to see them succeed.
He did not regret sending both of his sons to serve in the army.
Although Liu Xiang has transferred to the local area, his job is still pretty good.
It's just a little more dangerous.
But no matter what the job is, someone has to do it.
Liu Xiang also raised his glass and said to the other boys: "Liu Qian, Liu Jin, and Xiao Yu, let's toast to Dad and Mom together.
Thank them for their hard work in raising us children."
Liu Xiang said this, and also suggested that Fan Guizhen, Du Qianqian, and Zhou Zheng should also raise their glasses.
The little girl Xiao Nian Nian also held a cup in her hand, which contained sugar water poured by Liu Yu for her, which served as a drink.
She also raised her glass and said, "Cheers."
That cute voice melted the hearts of everyone present.
Even Liu Fu learned from her.
But before everyone raised their glasses, Liu Fu picked up the glass, poured all the sugar water into his own mouth, and drank it with smacking lips.
Liu Yu followed his brothers and toasted the two old men.
Tears welled up in Liu Qi's eyes.
Du Qianqian also toasted the two elderly people individually to thank them for their hospitality.
Liu Yu finally began to like her a little more.
Du Qianqian not only toasted the two elderly people, but also gave each of the two children a red envelope.
The package costs five dollars.
It seems that she is quite generous.
After all, in this era, five dollars is not a small amount of money.
It is equivalent to the later five 䀱.
According to this calculation of one thousand times, it is not an exaggeration.
After all, everyone’s salary was at least three thousand later, but now it is only thirty or forty.
It's about one thousand times.
Du Qianqian was eating the food and thought it tasted very good, so she said to Liu Qianqian beside her: "This dish is very delicious, who made it?"
When He Zhu heard Du Qianqian asking who made the dish, she quickly replied:
“It was done by Ah Zheng from Xiao Yu’s family.
This kid is a great cook.”
Liu Yu remained calm.
It's not a joke to praise Zhou Zheng at this moment.
Suddenly, Du Qianqian immediately said: "With such a great skill, it would be too great if he was to prepare the wedding banquet when we get married!"
She had a nice idea.
