The big feast in the countryside starts with the pig slaughtering meal

Linjia Village, the home of Master Zhang who once presided over the village's banquets

"Lao Zhang, what happened to you? Why did you feel a little absent-minded when you came back after seeing Lin Dong and his family preparing the food yesterday?"

Master Zhang's wife probably knew what was going on, but she still asked deliberately.

Master Zhang was the master who was sick and hospitalized and couldn't cook for Lin Dejiang's family.

""Nothing."

Master Zhang sighed.

He felt that within a few days of being in the hospital, his position in the Lin family's banquet was completely crushed by a young man.

Recently, the most discussed topic in Linjia Village was how delicious Lin Dong's banquet was.

Or, Lin Dong actually cooked a banquet now, and they would look for Lin Dong to hold a banquet in the future.

Master Zhang was very worried.

"Tsk, it's nothing, you just feel that Lin Dong stole your reputation"

"Don't even think about it. When you were in the hospital, I didn't go to the banquet, but my dad went to Lin Dejiang's house. According to my dad, the food Lin Dong cooked tastes so good that he can beat ten of you. You two are not on the same level."

Master Zhang's wife said heartbreakingly.

"I just got out of the hospital not long ago, can you please speak more politely?"

Master Zhang was so angry that his liver hurt.

"Otherwise?"

Master Zhang's wife sneered and said,"You think about these things every day."

"You have to understand, the more famous Lin Dong is, the more chances you have, right?"

"Hmm? What do you mean?"Master Zhang was stunned for a moment.

He didn't quite understand what his wife meant.

"It's very simple. Lin Dong has formed his own team now. I asked someone privately before. He now specializes in contracting banquets. The prices are 500 per table, 1,000 per table, and 1,500 per table."

"Think about it, they are doing business now, they are trying to make money, but in Linjia Village, and even in the surrounding villages, which couple doesn't want to spend one dollar as if it were two dollars? Not to mention hosting a banquet, no matter how much everyone thinks Lin Dong's banquet is delicious, how many people will invite him to cook a banquet?"

"As for face, haha, can face be more important than money? If I ask you to spend an extra 10,000 or 20,000 yuan to earn face, are you happy?"

Master Zhang opened his mouth, happy as hell, how long will it take me to earn this 10,000 or 20,000 yuan.

Master Zhang's wife said indifferently:"Even if they are shameless enough to invite Lin Dong to be the chef and pay him, he still has a team of seven or eight people. Will you invite him? If you invite him, you have to hire him to host the banquet, which will cost a lot of money."

"If we don't invite those people, will Lin Dong leave his team and cook the feast alone?"

Master Zhang's wife smiled leisurely.

"Therefore, if we want to invite Lin Dong to prepare a big banquet, we have to contract it to him. According to the stingy character of our villagers, most of them are unwilling to spend that money. After all, if we ask you to do it, we can save a lot of money."

"You are still a popular person in our neighborhood, don't worry, you will definitely be invited to a big banquet."

They have been married for decades, how could Master Zhang's wife not understand what her husband is thinking?

This guy lives for face, and he felt a little disappointed and frustrated that no one might invite him to a big banquet in the future.

Don't say it, many rural people live for face.

There are many people like Master Zhang.

Master Zhang's mood immediately improved after hearing what his wife said.

That's right, inviting Lin Dong is too expensive. And inviting him, Lao Zhang, is nothing more than giving him some cigarettes, alcohol and meat, or at least a few hundred yuan. If you invite Lin Dong, you will have to spend a lot of money, and not many people are willing to spend it.

The two sides are not the same kind of people at all

"It's a pity that I'm a little old, otherwise I could learn some skills from Dongzi, maybe I could make some money from it."

Master Zhang thought to himself.

However, he was considered Lin Dong's elder, so he naturally couldn't lose face to learn from him.

People live by their faces, and trees live by their skins.

I, Master Zhang, was born in heaven and earth, how can I be inferior to others?

Unless that kid invites me personally!

He added in his heart.

The villagers of Linjia Village reacted differently.

Many people discussed Lin Dong's behavior privately.

"Hey, Dongzi’s cooking skills are indeed good, but I didn’t expect that he would really start to specialize in preparing big banquets, and the prices are quite high."

"College students don't work in offices, but specialize in cooking banquets. Why can't they make money? Their skills are worth this price."

"It's worth it, but if I have to host more banquets and invite Dongzi, I can't afford the price. I guess I'll have to ask Chef Zhang to come."

"Hey, luckily we have Master Zhang as a backup in our village, otherwise it would be troublesome."

"I am a little bit missing the taste of Dongzi's banquet. If my family has a party, we still have to consider Dongzi as the chef. Just invite him, it's not a big deal."

Such remarks have been made by almost every household.

Of course, some people also complained about Lin Dong in private.

But these were not revealed on the surface.

Who knows when it will cause trouble to others.
