The Luo family and the Yang Huazhong family have the same concern for their children. They are both precious treasures at the top of their hearts, and they cannot let anything go wrong.

This time, Baby Luo was missing for nearly a day, and when Dazhi went to look for him, he disappeared for nearly half a day. It was undoubtedly a thrilling experience for the Luo and Yang families.

Although both children returned safely in the end, Sun and the others had been having nightmares these past few days.

The two families decided to thank the people in the village who helped in the search, so today, they jointly prepared several tables of meals to entertain everyone.

Blacksmith Luo drove his carriage to the town early in the morning to buy groceries, while Yang Huazhong stayed at home and was responsible for inviting people, inviting and saying hello door to door.

As for Sun, Wang Cuilian and the others, they devoted themselves to taking care of the kitchen.

At half-morning, Blacksmith Luo returned home with a full load.

I originally planned to buy the pork from the Sun family, but the eldest Sun family had not killed any pigs in the past few days, so Blacksmith Luo had to bring it from the town.

No, ten pounds of pork belly, ten pounds of ribs, two pairs of elbows, and a pair of pig intestines.

The fish and shrimp are all caught from the fish pond at home. They are caught one day in advance and kept in large pots.

The remaining roast duck, roast chicken, various vegetables and fruits were all bought at a newly opened stewed vegetable shop in the town. They were stuffed with ten pounds of the best osmanthus from the winery in the town, and the best shredded dry tobacco was weighed.

In addition, I also bought nearly twenty kilograms of candies.

These candies are intended to be distributed equally to the villagers who are eating after the meal, so that they can take them home to give teeth to the children at home.

One after another, everyone was invited to the Luo family by Yang Huazhong.

The main hall of the Luo family is spacious enough to accommodate four tables for dining.

If that's not enough, open the doors on both sides, and the five-room lobby on the front will be opened. You can set up a stage inside, not to mention setting up a table for dinner.

Blacksmith Luo and Yang Huazhong entertained everyone in the main room to drink tea, talk, eat melon seeds and smoke dry cigarettes.

The older ones gathered together to smoke and have fun.

At the table of young people, a horse crane was set up, and people gathered around to watch.

Xiaohua had to take care of the baby and couldn't spare time to greet the guests. Xiaoduo had a big belly. During this time, she had been raising a baby in the Xiang family. When Dazhi came back last time, Xiaoduo came over and she didn't dare to move around anymore.

Xiaoduo couldn't come this time, so he sent Xiang Shengnan over.

We need someone to help greet everyone in the main room and refill tea for everyone.

Young wives who could help at home either stayed in the backyard and were busy cooking, like Zhao Liuer.

Or you have to take care of children, such as Xiaoduo, Cao Bamei...

Therefore, the task of serving tea and water fell into the hands of the third girl and the two sisters Mianmian.

Jiang Guiling also wanted to help pour tea, but was stopped by Mrs. Sun.

"Guiling, you haven't officially entered the house yet, you are still a guest, but I can't let you do those things. You go sit and eat melon seeds." Mrs. Sun said with a smile.

Jiang Guiling knew that this was Sun's courtesy to her, but she really wanted to do something, so she looked at her prospective mother-in-law Bao Suyun.

Bao Suyun smiled softly and said, "Your third mother loves you, just listen to her. If you enter the door in the future, there will be many opportunities."

In this case, Jiang Guiling had no choice but to sit there and couldn't sit still, so she ran to the yard to chat with Cao Bamei, Xiaohua and the others and entertain the children.

In the front hall, someone at the horse-drawn table shouted: "There is no tea here."

Mianmian happened to come over with a tea jar, and after hearing this, she quickly responded and came over here.

There were a group of young people at the table. Even the oldest one was only in his twenties and had just gotten married.

Several others were not married or even said they were married, including Zhang Lezi's son Zhang Xiangzi.

The person who shouted that there was no tea before happened to be sitting next to Zhang Xiangzi.

When Mianmian came over to refill the tea, the young people's attention was all on the horse crane on the table. Mianmian carefully refilled the tea for the man. Just as she was about to turn around, another empty tea bowl was also delivered to her.

"Sister Mianmian, please help me refill some water by the way!"

The speaker was smiling, and his eyes were so bright that they were dancing on Mianmian's face and body.

Isn’t it Zhang Xiangzi!

Mian Mian frowned slightly, not liking Zhang Xiangzi's unavoidable gaze.

But today Uncle Luo and Uncle San jointly entertained everyone to thank them, and Zhang Xiangzi also contributed. He is a guest, and Mianmian cannot refuse the guest's request.

Mianmian poured the tea for Zhang Xiangzi and returned the tea bowl to him. Zhang Xiangzi's hand touched Mianmian's hand again.

Mianmian was so frightened that her hands shook and the tea bowl in her hand almost fell to the ground.

Zhang Xiangzi took back his hand, smiled at Mianmian and winked.

"The tea poured by sister Mianmian... is fragrant and delicious." He said in a low voice.

Mianmian's face turned red, and she quickly picked up the teapot and ran away.

She felt that Zhang Xiangzi's eyes were always chasing her, no matter where she was in the main room, he was staring at her.

Several times she deliberately turned around and saw him staring at her.

Even though she caught him red-handed, he didn't panic and even smiled at her.

That gaze was so hot and piercing that it made Mianmian panic. She found an opportunity to escape to the backyard, and the gaze behind her completely disappeared.

Mianmian breathed a sigh of relief.

She sat down next to the flower bed, quietly took out the handkerchief and wiped her hands carefully, and tears fell down as she wiped them.

"Mianmian, if you don't pour tea in the front yard, why are you sitting here in a daze?"

Jiang Guiling's voice suddenly sounded behind her.

Mianmian was startled and quickly stood up.

"Mianmian, what's wrong with you? Why are you crying?" Jiang Guiling noticed Mianmian's abnormality at a glance and asked.

Mianmian quickly shook her head and subconsciously put her hands behind her back.

"What are you hiding in your hand? Show it to your sister-in-law." Jiang Guiling said again.

"No, it's nothing...ah!"

Jiang Guiling had grabbed Mianmian's hand and put it in front of her eyes to look at it. There was nothing in her hand, only a handkerchief.

"Why are your hands so red? Did you rub them yourself?" Jiang Guiling asked in surprise.

Mianmian bit her lip, lowered her head and remained silent.

Seeing her look like this, Jiang Guiling knew that she had guessed correctly.

"What's going on here? Why can't you get in trouble with the back of your hand?" Jiang Guiling asked again.

Mianmian remained silent, but her big eyes, as gentle and beautiful as a deer, were filled with tears.

Jiang Guiling suddenly thought of something, frowned, and said in a low voice: "Tell my sister-in-law, did that bastard Zhang Xiangzi take advantage of you again?"

She lowered her eyelashes, and tears fell down like broken beads.

"I don't know what to say, and I can't say that he deliberately took advantage of me. It was just a gesture of pouring tea and handing over a bowl. I do the same with others, without touching my fingers, but it doesn't make me feel guilty.
