Pioneer of the Rebirth Era

As the wedding banquet began, relatives and friends sat down one after another, and people from the same village who called for help began to shuttle between the dining table and the earthen stove for cooking.

According to the customs here in Yangjia Village, cold dishes are usually served, which is cold dishes, but it is a bit unreasonable to let people eat cold dishes in the cold winter.

What's more, because there are too many tables, even if we set up a large tent and don't let the cold wind blow out in the open air, the temperature is not that good.

Therefore, the eight cold dishes that were originally supposed to be served were directly cut into four. This means that we can just follow the local serving rules, and the rest should be served as some guests like to eat.

After all, they are here to congratulate you. If you have diarrhea because you eat too many cold dishes, it would be a bit unethical.

"This dish is so rare." When they saw the hot dishes served directly after the four cold dishes, the eyes of some elderly people who couldn't eat cold dishes lit up.

Especially the dish that was served was not a local dish, but a plate of fried sea cucumbers with green onions, which was a dish that was rarely seen in wedding banquets in the village.

After all, Anhui Province is an inland city. If you say that freshwater fish and shrimp are not unusual, this seafood is really rare.

Because the current transportation chain is not perfect, and more importantly, there are no large supermarkets in rural areas yet, the freezing chain cannot keep up, so seafood cannot be stored for a long time.

Even though there is no need for freezers and cold storage in the coldest months of winter, there are no cement roads leading to every village. In addition, the roads will freeze in rainy weather in the north, which makes transportation more difficult.

In addition, due to the consumption capacity of rural areas, seafood and other things are indeed fresh in rural areas and can only be seen in some large supermarkets in the city.

But this is not a problem for Yang Dongxu. He can just say hello to Millennium Supermarket directly and bring it back from the cold storage of Millennium Supermarket in the city when ordering in advance.

As for the price issue, to be honest, if you buy this thing in bulk, the price is not as high as expected.

After all, the sea cucumber used for the wedding banquet only needs to be a healthy food, and there is no requirement that it be wild or how big it must be. As long as it meets the basic requirement that it is a serious sea cucumber, the size does not matter.

In fact, many people think that seafood is expensive. One of the most important reasons is the transportation cost. Because it is long-distance transportation, the price of seafood is definitely higher than the price of freshwater fish and shrimp in the mainland.

The second reason is that I have never seen seafood since I was a child in the Mainland. The only place where I can see seafood is on TV. And those wealthy people on TV who eat sea cucumbers will definitely pick them up and buy them. Otherwise, how can they show that they are rich?

This gives many people who have no real understanding of seafood the illusion that seafood is expensive. In fact, according to the income level of people here in Yangjiacun, there is no financial pressure at all to eat a few meals of sea cucumber occasionally.

Nowadays, good sea cucumbers do cost tens of thousands per catty, but ordinary sea cucumbers cost tens of yuan per catty. Of course, the sea cucumbers used for the Yang family banquet definitely don’t need to be the cheapest ones, but they don’t use the most expensive ones either.

To show off.

The cost of this generous plate of sea cucumber is only about 200, which is considered a very economical dish. You can eat it fresh, and you can also taste the taste of sea cucumber, and the price is not so ostentatious.

In fact, the inclusion of sea cucumbers in the dishes is still my aunt's request. If it is done according to the wedding banquet standard of being low-key but not stingy as previously agreed upon, the dishes for this wedding banquet will definitely be mainly local wedding banquet dishes. At most, the specifications can be upgraded to include more hard dishes.

, such as big elbows, big fish, pig's trotters, etc.

But although the aunt didn't say it, she definitely wanted to show off her family's differences and add a little more color to her son.

So after she talked to Zhou Ya in a vague way, Zhou Ya contacted Yang Dongxu. Although the family didn't say it, and it was Yang's father who spoke on many occasions, in fact, the family knew in their hearts that when such a thing happened,

It would be better if you talk to Yang Dongxu.

After listening to what Zhou Ya said, Yang Dongxu gave a suggestion to serve more seafood dishes.

In this way, the cost of the banquet will not increase much, and the dishes will not only look fresh, but also save face.

Of course, the seafood has not been left behind and the more high-end hard dishes have not been left behind. After all, this is not bad. So in addition to seafood, the Yang family now also prepares mutton soup for banquets.

Lamb chops.

It's not like a hotel where there are only eight lamb chops on a plate. In rural areas, it's impossible to seat only eight people at a table. Some children and adults can't even sit at a table with ten people.

Therefore, the lamb chops are served directly on a large plate with twenty pieces, which not only ensures that each person at the table can have one, but also can eat one more if they like it.

Dishes are being served to the table in a hurry. When the waiter returns after serving the dishes, there are many empty plates on the plate.

There are so many dishes that the table is so big that there is no room for them all to be placed on the table, so many tables take advantage of the time when the food is being served to put some empty plates that have been finished, or those that no one is eating on the table, on the dinner plate.

, let the person who served the food take it back.

There are two criteria for judging whether the banquet is good or not when eating in rural areas. One is how much of the dishes are left after eating, and the second is the time it takes for the guests to leave the table.

In fact, these two points can be considered together, because the banquet requires at least eight base dishes plus soup, which is twelve, which is still the minimum preparation.

A slightly better banquet would have sixteen dishes as a base, eight cold dishes, eight hot dishes and soup, which would make it twenty. It is impossible to eat so many dishes in a short time from beginning to end.

Plus there are people drinking and doing boxing, so it’s normal to have an hour to eat.

If the food is not good and no one eats it, there is no point in sitting at the table. It will definitely be early to leave the table, so the two can be considered together.

The Yang family's banquet is undoubtedly very good. The seafood is not only fresh but also tastes very good, because the seafood is cooked by a separate chef, and the master chef invited from the nearby village only cooks local dishes.

The Yang family's banquet consisted of twenty-two dishes and eight soups, and each dish was delicious. In the middle of the banquet, Yang Dongjie and Dong Yao hosted the wedding today. According to seniority, they are called uncles, and they live next door to their uncles.

Let’s start the toast.

There were too many tables and it was obviously too late to toast one by one, so the relatives and elders toasted in person one by one, and then Yang Dongjie ran to have a few drinks with his classmates.

The guests at other tables thanked the person who presided over the wedding, and the couple toasted two glasses together. After the aunt's toast in the yard, the two of them hurried to the courtyard of Yang Dongxu's old house, where there were still

More than fifty tables of guests need to toast.
