   Two busy days passed in a blink of an eye.

  On the morning of the third day, Wang Tianxiao opened his eyes from the kang, feeling a little nervous.

  Although he has been a man in two lifetimes, but because of his lack of organizational skills, things like this in his previous life were generally handled by others, and he just played a role or provided some manpower.

  This time, he became the core. Even though many things were entrusted to Wang Dabao as the manager, he was still full of anxiety, always worried that there were still things that he hadn't considered clearly.

  Wife Li Yali has woken up.

Today she changed into the clothes that Wang Tianxiao specially bought for her. The upper body was a rose-red overcoat, the lower body was black fleece pants, and the inside matched with a milky white sweater. Her long jet-black hair was twisted into two braids. The tall figure looks even more upright, comparable to the models on TV before.

  Wang Tianxiao hasn't found out that his wife is so beautiful. In his previous life, his wife had been living with him in rough food and poor clothes, so she didn't feel it at all.

   Sure enough, clothes are still needed to set off. Buddhas rely on gold clothes, and people rely on clothes.

  Because there was no mirror in the room, the wife didn't know how she was dressed, so she asked Wang Tianxiao to help her take a look, but Wang Tianxiao dishonestly hugged his wife and kissed her red cheeks, making his wife's cheeks burn with shame.

  The relationship between people in this era is a bit distorted.

  Desires for freedom mentally, but is often in a state of oppression physically.

  Li Yali and Wang Tianxiao are already old couples and have two children, but every time Wang Tianxiao hugs her, she is still a little shy, like a newly married young wife.

   "It's so beautiful." Wang Tianxiao praised.

   "No way."

   "I'm serious, you could be in a movie in this outfit."

   "I don't have a big star who looks good. It's useless if you say I'm good-looking." Li Yali replied shyly, but was very happy. What wife doesn't like her husband saying that she is beautiful.

   "If I say yes, there will be. I promise you are the most beautiful person at the banquet today."

   "Go get busy, I have to clean up the children."

  Having not moved for more than a month, Li Yali's industrious body was already hungry and thirsty, and Wang Tianxiao found out that his wife had cleaned up the room when he got off the kang, when he was sleepy.

  The wife is still so virtuous and hardworking, and so beautiful.

  With a wife like this, what more can a husband ask for.

  Because we were going to Wangjiacun to have a banquet today, everyone got up early. After Wang Tianxiao went out, he found that everyone's doors were open, and everyone put on whatever clothes they could afford.

  Especially Mi Xiaoqing, wearing a rare blue cotton jacket and cotton trousers. Although the clothes are thick, but because of her small frame and small face, she doesn't look bloated at all, but has a special charm.

  If Li Guanping hadn't gone home, he would definitely be lost at this moment.

  The beauty of this kind of girl is unrestrained, and it is different from Li Yali's virtuous, gentle and restrained beauty, but they are all intoxicating.

  According to the arrangement, the people at the station also have their own tasks.

  The two brothers of the Wu family will be in charge of lighting the fire. Their partner will help on the noodle pot. Mi Xiaoqing and Li Guanping will be responsible for receiving the guests. Wang Tianxiao deliberately provides opportunities for them. Presumably, the golden couple will also be very eye-catching.

  Liu Yuan was in charge of burning the teapot.

   Banquets require a lot of tea, so when things happen, a special pot for boiling water is usually built, and several huge iron kettles are placed on it to boil and pour water continuously.

  This work is not very tiring, usually two or three old men are in charge, chatting while burning.

  I planned to set off in an hour, but I didn't expect that after a while, snowflakes began to float in the sky. Seeing that the snowflakes were getting bigger and bigger, it looked like it was about to settle.

  This year's winter has been snowing quite frequently.

   Perhaps Wang Tianxiao was influenced by the life of later generations, and felt that even in the northwest winter, a few snowfalls would be enough.

   Unexpectedly, in less than two months, the third snow has already fallen.

  He felt that there was no delay, so he and Li Yali immediately wrapped the children tightly and rushed down the mountain to the village.

  If it is too late, once the snow accumulates on the mountain road, the motorcycle will not be easy to go, and it will be easy to slip.

  The northwestern wind was blowing, and it hurt Wang Tianxiao's face. He didn't have the slightest intention of avoiding it. Behind him, there were his two children and his wife. They were the most important people in the world.

  Provide them with protection at all times.

  Back to the village, the helpers here were already busy under the arrangement of Wang Dabao.

  After the arrangement of the previous two days, a total of two large tents, one small tent and three tents were set up.

  The two big tents are used for eating noodles and seats respectively, and the small tent is reserved for people in Lijia Village to rest temporarily.

  Because Wang Tianxiao didn't have a house in the village, there was no place to arrange for the guests who came from afar. He thought of this solution after worrying for a long time.

  Fires were lit in the three tents, and the flames were blazing at the moment, making the tents extra warm.

  According to the customs of Qingcheng, whether it is red and white events or full moon wine, there are two major steps in eating, eating noodles and sitting.

  The so-called eating noodles is also called drinking soup, but it is actually eating noodles.

This is a special type of noodle in Northwest China. The method is to put the kneaded dough into a tool called "bed". There are holes under the bed, and the noodle is pressed out by pressure, and it becomes a stick-shaped noodle, a bit like ramen. , but the pen ramen is much more even.

  The size of the beds varies. Generally, the beds at home can only press two or three bowls of noodles at a time, but the beds used for banquets are very scary, and can press out more than a dozen bowls of noodles at a time.

People will set up a large pot with a diameter of nearly two meters, fill the pot with boiling water, and then set up a huge bed on top of the pot. Several women next to the bed knead the dough continuously, and a few powerful men next to the bed will use it. The force of breastfeeding is constantly pressed.

   After rolling the noodles in the pot a few times, they will be taken out in bowls, and there are children who are responsible for serving the noodles next to them, waiting in line to take them away.

   It's like an assembly line.

  Of course, it’s just that the noodle is not called the noodle.

  The essence of the noodles is the red oil soup.

  Beside the noodle pot, there will also be a big pot, inside which is a pot of spicy red boiling soup.

  Rich people will put some meat in the soup, while those without money only have tofu, diced radish, day lily and so on.

  Whether there is meat or not, there will be a lot of chili noodles scalded with pork in the soup, which is called cooked oil chili, which makes the soup look very appetizing.

   After every guest attending the banquet comes, they have to drink soup and eat noodles, and then go to the banquet after eating to complete the process of a banquet.

  Because the full moon wine is a half-day event, that is to say, the real time for the event is only a few hours, so most of the guests who participated in the banquet came around noon, and there was no place to go if they came too early.

  It's just past nine o'clock in the morning, except for the helpers who are busy, the guests have basically not come yet.

If you want to enter the alfalfa field, you have to come from the south intersection. At the position where you enter the alfalfa field, there is a table in front of Li Guanping and Mi Xiaoqing. There are two plates on the table, and there are loose cigarettes in one plate. There are sweets in a saucer.

   Regardless of whether a male guest smokes or not, he will give out a cigarette. If he smokes, he will light it. If he does not smoke, he will clip it to his ear.

  Women and children take two or three candies, and generally don’t grab more, but they don’t pay much attention to some ignorant children, after all, they are all for fun and celebration.

There is another table next to this welcome table. A male teacher from the village elementary school is sitting beside the table. There is a record book cut out of red paper on the table. The things brought by the guests or the gift money given will be recorded one by one. clear.

  This book is also a debt collection book. The favors received now will be returned one by one in the future. If you don’t remember clearly and don’t return gifts by then, you will be poked in the back and scolded.

   For the same reason, if someone didn't come this time, they would basically sever ties with their family.

  If you don't give our family face, our family won't bother to pay attention to you.

  Teachers in this era don’t say how they are studying, but they write all the characters very well. The teacher who was invited is also a cousin of the clan, and the calligraphy is very smooth.

  Actually, Wang Tianxiao's calligraphy is also pretty good, but today his child is over the full moon, so of course he doesn't have time to sit here to register guests.

  Beside the recording table, there is a door panel covered with red cloth, which is used to place all kinds of gifts received, usually quilt covers, bed sheets, pillows, children's clothes, shoes and hats, etc.

  The most of them are all kinds of cloth.

  In this day and age, people need a lot of cloth for making shoes and clothes, so people often give a lot of cloth as gifts.

  Wang Tianxiao made his wife and children want to keep warm in the small tent. He and Wang Dabao carefully watched every link. Even though some procedures were not clear, they still did the necessary understanding.

  At around ten o'clock, the snow became lighter, and more and more people came to the banquet. After a while, the first wave of people had finished their meal and entered the tent of the flowing water banquet.

  According to the process, the first wave of guests is the most important, so some ceremonies have to be completed in front of everyone before the banquet begins.

   Apart from some small rules, the two most important things are lottery and padlock.

  Drawing lots is to prepare some things for children to grab and see how the children will grow up and develop in the future.

  Wang Peng lived up to expectations, grabbed the hairpin and didn't let go. The audience laughed and said that this guy will definitely be a love interest when he grows up.

  Li Yali was holding the child, smiling as beautifully as a flower.

  The people who came to the banquet also wore better clothes, but most of them were rustic, especially in winter, they were basically thick cotton jackets with pullovers, and they were all bloated to death.

  Li Yali wore warm clothes, so she wore light clothes. In addition, she had good skin, and she hadn't seen the sun for a long time, so she looked much fairer.

  Compared all the older girls and daughters-in-law around.

  Everyone is the same as Wang Tianxiao. Such a good-looking person should appear in the movie. How can he stand in a tent in the muddy countryside?

   Apart from being amazed, everyone will naturally analyze how Wang Tianxiao became so handsome.

  Aside from other things, it depends on the cost of the banquet, and not a little money can handle it.

  No one in the village can reach this level.

  It's really enviable and jealous.

  Some people also think of someone introducing a partner in the early years, and they still dislike Wang Tianxiao's family being poor. Unexpectedly, Feng Shui will turn around, and now he can't afford it.

  During the meal, some people got drunk and said some disagreements between Lijiacun and Wangjiacun. Wang Tianxiao secretly had these blind people sneak out and throw them outside, making them sober in the snow.

  He pays special attention to this aspect, just in case someone in the clan gets drunk and makes trouble.

   Fortunately, there is no major event, it's just some small troubles.

  Small storms, small ripples.

  What surprised him was that although Wang Tianyi could not stand up to troubles on weekdays, he still stood firmly on his side when this unanimity came to the outside world.

   Help coordinate things and resolve differences.

   It also happened to conform to his previous thoughts, maintaining a general brotherly relationship with Wang Tianyi, neither getting close nor completely severing it.

  The family has something to do, and they work together. If there is no major issue, each family is responsible for its own affairs.

   There is no need for special contacts.
