"Since the report came out, this is the third car." Li Dong sighed helplessly, looking at the mailing bags loaded with readers' letters in front of him, and there was almost no place to put them at home.

Previously, the letters were either sent to children or to people's literature. Now, at least one-third of them were sent to Hanzhuang. "I have to build a house and send a letter back."

"There is no way, who makes you so popular with readers, especially young readers. Most of the time, they are sent from Shanghai."

Most of these were from childhood. Children now like Li Dong's series of Han Guaiguai and Han Pipi. In addition to these letters, there is also a letter sent by the editorial department of the childhood era, mainly to want Li Dong to write a reply.

So many children like Han Guaiguai and Han Pipi, Li Dong must write a reply, although he cannot reply to these children one by one. "Thank you, Hongbing, go into the house to have a cup of tea."

"Why are you polite to me?"

Zong Hongbing helped Li Dong move the letter to the yard.

At this moment, the young people in the village are all building roads, and there is no one in the village, so they can only trouble Zong Hongbing.

"Then I'll go back first."

After drinking the cup, Zong Hongbing left in a carriage this time, and Li Dong packed up his parcel. "These should be items sent by readers, not letters."

Most of them are letters, and some small bags, which send some specialties and the like.

Li Dong packed out the mailbags for sending specialties. Maybe there is something to eat here. This thing cannot be stored now, otherwise it will smell bad or break it, which will disappoint the young readers.

"So much?" Huang Shengnan looked surprised when he saw Li Dong coming in with an older bag.

"The reader sent it here, see what's inside. If it's eaten, see if it's bad."

More than a dozen parcels, both big and small, Li Dong took them into the house and handed them to Huang Shengnan.

"Then I'll take a look for you."

"You watch first, I have to go to the mill to beat the rice."

Li Dong asked for a small cart when he spoke. This kind of wheelbarrow can hold two large baskets of rice with two or three hundred kilograms of rice.

"I will come back to cook later. At noon, Uncle Guofu and the others will come."

"Would I stew the rice first?" Huang Shengnan asked while dismantling the mailing bag.

"It's still early, I'll get it back later. You can wash the vegetables."

Speaking, Li Dong brought the rice into the car. "I'm over."

When I arrived at the mill, Aunt Hua was fighting rice. Seeing Li Dong pushing so much rice, "Dongzi, why are you fighting so much? You're not afraid of putting it out."

"We only need to do things these days, so we can handle more." Li Dong put down the wheelbarrow and came to help sweep the rice.

"Look, I forgot." Li Chuanhua slapped her forehead.

"When will I go and help me?" Aunt Chuanhua swept the rice while talking.

"You have to wait for the road to repair it." Li Dong put down his broom and swept it here.

"This road is too fast. I heard that it will be padded in a few days." After a while, Aunt Hua finished cooking.

"Dongzi, you fight, I'll go home to cook first."

"Auntie, you're busy."

After Li Dong finished making more than 200 kilograms of rice, it was getting late, so he quickly returned home and started to clean up the cooking. Fortunately, Huang Shengnan started to do it and clean up one simple one of four dishes and one soup.

"I'll get two bottles of wine."

The wine at home is gone, but there are still a lot of it in Chicheng courtyard. I went back to transport it back and bought a few bottles now.

"Xiaoqin, bring me some bottles of wine."

"Give."

Li Dong gave the money to Gao Xiaoqin and returned to the house. After a while, the knock on the door started.

"Sixth Master, Uncle Guofu is here, come to the table soon." Li Dong greeted, the meal was ready. "Shengnan, help me bring the wine cup."

"Okay."

"Sixth Master, Uncle Guofu is sitting and eating food."

"So many dishes." Master Liu sat down and put the pipe pole on the table to scan. Hey, he had a lot of dishes.

"Not much, I'm just going to make rice, I don't have much time to remediate it. You can taste it, does it fit the taste."

In addition to the hot dishes, we also cut two braised dishes and took a cucumber, which made it look like there were a lot of dishes. Huang Shengnan, Zhang Baosu, Xiaojuan, and Wumei sat at the small table to eat at the side. The custom here is that women who don’t serve the table.

Even if Hanzhuang was able to maintain this custom in 2019, it is not as particular as it is now.

"Come on, Master Liu, Uncle Guofu, I'll give you a cup."

The three of them drank half a pound of wine before they said it. Li Dong asked about the rules for drinking here.

"There are no major rules. After years of hard work, all rules have become simple."

According to the past, the rules have become bigger, and now there are fewer rules. Besides, Li Dong’s elders are not around, Huang Shengnan’s parents are both BJs, and they have also had a drink. I don’t think they will come here.

"Dongzi didn't say anything else, just say one. You have to find a celebrity, four snacks, two bottles of wine, two packs of candy, and two kilograms of meat."

A celebrity is a matchmaker. Although the two are in love freely, it just sounds better to find a matchmaker. "Then matchmaker, look, who is the right one?"

"Let you pass on Aunt Hua in front of the celebrity."

"OK."

Li Dong nodded and turned around to prepare. As for those who support the banquet, they are usually elders and uncles. Li Dong's Korean rich and Korean soldiers are fine. "Guofu, you are more supportive." Liu Ye said, and Korean rich nodded.

"What a big scene for the drink, do you have any idea?"

"I haven't thought about this."

Li Dong said, "It's getting bigger and it's lively."

I don’t lack this little money, what do I need? Just go back to 2019.

"A table of several dishes, what do you think about these things? You have to think about them in advance and prepare them all."

“Four Six Six.”

Li Dong gestured and said, four cold dishes, six stir-fry dishes, and six big pots. This guy had a good meal. Sixteen dishes, Korean Fu and Liu Ye didn't expect that, and thought that Li Dong would make two, four and six, would be considered very good.

Generally, if you are two or four, two or four, or two or six, it is not bad. Li Dong made such a big deal at once.

"Then you have to prepare in advance."

There are many dishes and many ingredients to prepare. The chef also left in advance and found it. Li Dong had a clear idea.

"Um."

"Eat vegetables."

Li Dong doesn’t have to worry about other chores, and then young people like Han Weiguo will help you with these things. "Dongzi, I and Liu Ye can help you with these things. You have to make up the customer's business by yourself."

"Who are invited to do this? You have thought about it. Don't miss anyone and offend others."

"Uncle Guofu, don't worry."

Li Dong said. "I will write down the list in the past two days and then summarize it."

"That's good."

After drinking two bottles of wine, Li Dong sent Liu Ye. Han Fu back. When he returned home, Li Dong made a decision to invite the guests this time. In this area, Secretary Liu Bo wanted to say hello, Secretary Zhang Yongjun must have invited him.

Some other people, the Federation of Literary and Art Circles, should Li Dong invite them? Although he is a colleague, the relationship between the two is not very good. "Let's leave it for now. Looking back, many people in the county want to invite them."

"County Magistrate Liang, and the likes of the webmaster Gao."

Please be invited, so there should be no problem. There are many people on the commune side. The brigade leaders and several surrounding communes have recruited workers because of disposable chopsticks and bamboo weaving factories.

Li Dong knows many people, and these people must say hello.

"If you calculate this, there are quite a lot of people."

In addition, Li Dong had a total of ten tables and eight tables. Besides, there were also a family of Hanzhuang, and these people only wanted at least four or five tables. There were also a few factories, Li Dong had a total of at least twenty or thirty tables.

This guy doesn’t have to be enough for two pigs, and the side food is no more than a few hundred or thousands of kilograms. He really has to go back.

"Please help me write the invitation."

Li Dong planned to bring a few bottles of wine and asked Liu Wenqing to write an invitation.

"But so much, I'm afraid it's a few days in advance."

Li Dong couldn't help laughing.

"What do you think, so happy."

"nothing."

Li Dong smiled and said, "Let's go, I'll take you to the reservoir. There are a lot of wild fruits at this time."

"OK."

Huang Shengnan and Li Dong held hands, and met several employees of the tofu factory on the way, and greeted him with a smile.

After walking around, the two of them really picked a lot of wild fruits.

“Some acid.”
