Chapter 130: Invite the whole village to dinner

"Why are you still standing there? Isn't this your cousin Jiang? I've never seen him before. Please help move things quickly."

The clan uncle glared at the juniors behind him. There were two men and one woman in total, all descendants of the Jiang family. They were dressed very simply, and it could be seen that their living conditions were not good.

"Hello, cousin!"

"My cousin has become rich and drives a Land Rover."

Only then did all the young people come forward to say hello and look around the luxury car, looking like they had never seen the world.

"Hey, there haven't been any promising talents in the clan in recent years. The water plant and two fish ponds that your grandfather helped to build when he was still alive have also been purchased. Most of the Jiang family's children have dropped out of school to work."

"By the way, a talented person came out of your fourth uncle's family two years ago. He was admitted to Tsinghua University. He went crazy because he was dumped by his girlfriend just two years after studying. Now he is still at home in a state of confusion!"

The old man talked about what happened in the village over the years. Jiang Ge and others listened attentively without interrupting.

"What's the name of that college student?"

"My name is Jiang Huaqing. He is proficient in poetry, poetry, and poetry. He was recommended to Tsinghua University. Normally, he would be able to graduate with a master's degree. Who knew that this happened?"

The clan uncle's expression was full of sighs, as if he was feeling sorry for the failure of his descendants.

Once upon a time, the Jiang family was also a famous family, with talents springing up like mushrooms after a rain. However, after three generations of prosperity, people cannot always follow the trend, and the ups and downs of the family are inevitable.

"Oh, that's a pity."

Jiang Ge shook his head and didn't say anything. He just took out a box from the trunk and opened it in front of everyone. Inside, there was a million cash prepared long ago.

"Oh my God, this is money, so much money."

All the young people were shocked and their eyes were shining.

Jiang Ge casually took out a few wads of money and said, "Ten thousand for each person. It's my meeting gift. It's been a long time since I've been back and I haven't given any red envelopes to the juniors yet."

"Thank you, Cousin Jiang." All the young people were so happy that they took the money and rejoiced.

Uncle Jiang Quan sighed with emotion, "Xiao Jiang has made a fortune, why are you spending so much money? Giving them money is a waste of money."

"It's okay. I don't have much money. It's rare to come back."

"By the way, I want to treat the whole village to a meal today. I'll let my uncle arrange it. I can get it from here as much as I want."

Jiang Ge expressed his inner purpose. Rural people loved small favors the most, and he wanted to use actions to show that the Jiang family had not declined.

"Okay, we haven't had such a lively scene for a long time."

Jiang Quan did not object to this. For him, it was a matter of honor to treat the whole village to a meal, and the rural banquet was not expensive, which would help the Jiang family's prestige in the village in the future.

So he nodded and agreed, first moved some goods to his small courtyard, and then quickly went to find a few reliable people to arrange a banquet.

"Boss Jiang, you are a nouveau riche, and you invited the whole village to dinner when you first arrived?"

Sitting on a simple wooden chair in front of the village, Corn Kernel and Jiang Ling were feeding the chickens. The two of them were enjoying themselves!

Looking up, I see green fertile fields in front of me. In front of the fertile fields is a sparkling river. I feel a primitive rural atmosphere, which I can't feel in big cities.

"Isn't it just to invite someone to dinner? It doesn't matter. Xiao Jiang just wants to expand the family's reputation and do his best for Mr. Jiang."

"Besides, the flowing water table is lively, and I like it too, old man. Jiang Ge's behavior is very to my liking."

The old man had a different opinion and seemed to agree very much. It was obvious that he was also a person who liked fun.

"Yes, money is meant to be spent. Only when you spend it happily can you earn happiness."

Jiang Ge also smiled and poured the old man a cup of tea.

"Jiang Ge, this is Cheng Liang, the village chef, who specializes in organizing banquets for people. This is the fifth aunt, who is quick with her hands and feet and is a master at chopping fish. She has a fish pond at home."

"This is what I think. A running water banquet has eight dishes and two soups. It only needs fish and meat. It doesn't need to be so complicated." Jiang Quan said.

"How can eight dishes be enough to eat? I think doubling it is enough. Let's have some seafood, half vegetables and half vegetarian. Since we are cooking, we can't be petty."

Jiang Ge refused directly. There were more than eight people at the table, and eight dishes would definitely not be enough.

"If you double it, that's sixteen. How can you finish it with two soup dishes?"

Jiang Quan was speechless, but he still followed the instructions.

The ingredients are very convenient. There are a lot of chickens, ducks, and fish raised in rural areas. You can just buy them directly on site. As for the seafood, let the market deliver it.

Soon, the chef named Cheng Liang started working with his group of apprentices. Various tools were moved over, and Jiang Quan also went to inform the villagers.

As soon as I heard that someone was treating me to a meal for free, or a feast with sixteen courses, men, women, and children volunteered to come and help.

In a short period of time, there were dozens of people walking around in the yard, and some women were chatting together in a folk dialect, which was very lively.

Jiang Ling liked this atmosphere very much. He met several children of the same age and had a great time catching chickens and fighting dogs together. Jiang Ge felt it was worth it when he saw this.

Once fresh grass carp and carp were brought over, their intestines and stomachs were disemboweled, and there was no shortage of chicken, duck, and mutton.

Braised fish, plain-cut chicken, mutton steamed buns, boiled meat slices, and spicy crayfish were all available. The soaring aroma made all the children's stomachs growl.

On an empty table that was propped up, several old people in the village were chatting with several members of the Yu family. The atmosphere was very harmonious. When it was time to eat, Jiang Ling was tired of playing and was held by Jiang Ge and sat at the table to drink.

Had tea.

"Xiaojiang is so lively. It hasn't been so lively for a long time. He invited everyone to dinner as soon as he came back."

"I heard that Jiang Ge has become prosperous. The Jiang family was not in a state of decline a few years ago. I heard that the son-in-law of the family was no longer available, but now it is getting better."

There were constant comments from the guests all around, and most of them were complimentary.

This is what Jiang Ge wants.

"Here we go, the food is served."

“Steamed Yellow Flower Chicken.”

"Shibali Sausage."

As the dishes were brought to the table one by one, the aroma instantly hit the nostrils, and even the corn kernels were a little moved.

She has eaten in big hotels and small restaurants, but she has never eaten in the countryside.

"Don't be polite, everyone, let's eat!"

Mr. Yu spoke, took the lead in using his chopsticks, picked up a large piece of chicken and stuffed it into his mouth. His mouth was filled with oil. Jiang Ge also tore a chicken drumstick for his daughter.

Turning around, I saw Corn Kernel holding a fish head and sucking it hard.

Seeing him, he pretended to be angry and said, "What are you looking at?"

"I didn't expect you also like to eat fish heads?"

Jiang Ge smiled, it seems that girls like eating fish heads, especially sucking the snot inside.

He was not polite and started eating directly. I have to say that the food on the flowing table had a unique flavor.

Although the taste is not as exquisite as that of a big hotel, it has a very unique country style, and it also stimulates the appetite when everyone is grabbing the food.

Jiang Ge couldn't help but have a huge appetite and kept moving his chopsticks. Corn Kernel's parents talked less and ate more gracefully.

"Here we go again, braised lion head."

Another dish was served, and the scene entered foodie mode.

The whole meal lasted about an hour, and even Mr. Yu had a good appetite. He ate three bowls of rice and a bottle of white wine, and three bowls of Jiang Ge. He ate less corn kernels and a little more than one bowl.
