The Big Landlord

Chapter 154: The Banquet

I haven't seen him for more than a year, and Xiaohui has become more solid, and no longer looks weak. He used to spend all day in a small earthen hut making cannons, and his whole body had no color, and his skin was quite pale. Now he is the same as Wang Ben, tanned , looks very healthy.

"You're finally willing to come back!" Wang Ben punched Xiaohui's chest with his fist, and laughed jokingly.

"I plan to come back to build a house," Xiaohui smiled knowingly, stretched out a broken arm naturally, and lightly beat Wang Ben's arm twice to show his most sincere greeting.

Looking around, he said calmly: "But it can't compare with your big house. I can build a two-story building."

"Very good!" Wang Ben smiled sincerely. He was also happy that this friend who had encountered difficulties finally fulfilled his wish and was able to contribute to the family.

Once this news is known to the villagers, I believe they will be shocked. No one can imagine that Xiaohui, who was once regarded as disabled by everyone because of a blown pair of arms, and who agreed that his future life will enter a pessimistic life, will provoke a family burden. In addition to paying off the debts owed by the aloe planting, there is still a lot of money to build a new house, and it is a building.

At present, there is only Wang Ben's building in Xiushui Bay. When he bought this homestead last year, Tian Jingmin's house, which he won 100,000 yuan, could have been built long ago, but they finally chose to go to the town to buy two facades and open Started a small noodle shop and changed to another way of life.

As for the other villagers, there are actually quite a few families who plan to build houses, and the money they have saved has all been invested in aloe vera seedlings, so they can only be temporarily stranded.

After exchanging pleasantries, Xiaohui sent out a sincere invitation: "Come to my house for lunch tomorrow!"

After experiencing a series of unimaginable things, he is no longer the silent follower he used to be, and gradually becomes assertive.

"Okay, no problem!" Wang Ben readily agreed without saying a word. For young people like them, they don't want to distinguish between the first day of the 30th and the second day of the new year. It's been a year and it's hard to find time for parties.

The next morning, he came to Xiaohui's house early with Linglong, who was dressed up and full of joy. Yesterday's conversation was too brief, and he was a little unfinished, so he planned to have a good exchange before dinner.

Xiaohui's parents, Zheng Kehuo and his wife, have always been very enthusiastic about Wang Ben. During this period, there was no prejudice caused by the aloe seedling incident. It was even worse on the first day of the Lunar New Year. The New Year's snacks were entertained, and they kept asking about their health, full of elder-like concern.

Not long after sitting down, two figures appeared outside the courtyard dam, they were Zhan Wu and Zi Jian who were also invited, and they started shouting and joking from a long distance away.

"Xiaohui, you have a red face, you are living a good life," Zhan Wu said cheerfully. During the reunion season of the Chinese New Year, he had already walked down Daqing Mountain and returned home. After half a year of precipitation, Zhou Zhongfu and Ma Yunxiu have accepted the established facts, even if they still have a grudge, they didn't make too many blames.

Zhan Wu's three companions also went home. They have helped Wang Ben a lot after staying on the top of the mountain for so long. Thousands of dollars, for them, going back can only lie about working in the city.

"That's right, those who didn't know thought you brought a woman back." As soon as Zhan Wu's voice fell, Zijian laughed and taunted him again. This kid finally stopped embroidering at home like a big girl, and his personality was also different. Still optimistic, still talking so much, and the three sentences are not far from the line.

The two of them still don't know about Xiaohui's matter. Since finding Xiaohui in a foreign place last year, Wang Ben has kept his mouth shut. No one has mentioned it. I wonder what attitude they will have when they know the truth. His character should be grievous, and Zijian would probably inquire about the details with interest, but at least one thing is certain, they will not be disdainful or look down on it.

Following Xiaohui who was going out to greet him, he stepped into the main room door, and suddenly saw Wang Ben sitting on the side. Zijian became a little unnatural in an instant, and his elation just now disappeared. After glare, Pingdi chose to sit down from a distance and kowtow melon seeds silently.

After spending the first morning of the lunar calendar in 1996 in this unnatural atmosphere, with the sumptuous meals on the table and strong white wine in the bowl, the atmosphere finally became lively again.

Zheng Kehuo and his wife didn't sit down. After leaving the whole main room to them, they chose to open a small stove in the kitchen, and came over occasionally to serve food. Before they knew it, Xiaohui had gradually become the backbone of their family.

Clinking bowls together, taking turns playing the game, after drinking for three rounds, everyone began to talk freely except for Linglong, who silently drank drinks and gnawed bones.

Taking advantage of the strength of the wine, Zijian came to Wang Ben with the wine bottle, and Gu Lulu poured the two wine bowls belonging to them to the overflow before giving up.

Picking up the wine bowl and throwing it into the air, he said very proudly: "Book, drink!"

This is no drinking, it’s clearly out of anger, this bowl of wine is estimated to weigh half a catty, how can there be such a way of drinking, the next second he has to get under the table, Wang Ben stared angrily before ignoring him, Gu picked up his food with chopsticks.

"Zijian, you drank too much!" Xiaohui hurried over to warn him, opened his arms, and was about to drag Zijian back to his seat.

"Don't pull me!" Zijian yelled suddenly, and his face became extremely serious, even a little angry. He shook his body a few times, broke free from Xiaohui's pull, and raised the bowl in front of Wang Ben again, saying in a stern voice: "Do you want to drink it or not!"

Faced with such a situation, Wang Ben had no choice but to speak out, frowning slightly, "If you think that drinking can solve the problem, I will accompany you, let alone a bowl, drinking will kill you!"

If Xiaohui didn't notice what was wrong before, the sudden upheaval has already made him very puzzled. He who didn't know it looked at this, looked at that, and couldn't understand at all, so he had to whisper to the outsider. Zhan Wu asked: "What happened to these two people?"

"I can't drink this wine!" Zhan Wu, who had been trying his best to suppress him, glared at Wang Ben and Zi Jian very angrily. went home.

As the only person who knew Zhan Wu left, the two bowls of wine were not drunk in the end. A reunion banquet full of joy, in this festive festival, just broke up.
