All the people living in No. 95 Nanluoguxiang know Wang Jianye's reputation, and they all know that the dishes he cooks are delicious, and they all want to have a taste of them.

It’s the New Year again, and everyone wants Wang Jianye to cook more dishes, and they are all willing to buy from him.

Wang Jianye did not agree to all of them, after all, he couldn't do it.

Only the requests of Liu Haizhong and the deaf old lady were agreed.

After the braised pork was ready, Liu Haizhong and the deaf old lady came over to get some.

They provided both the ingredients and the money, so Wang Jianye didn't suffer any loss.

After making dumplings at three o'clock in the afternoon, we started preparing the New Year's Eve dinner, which lasted until seven o'clock in the evening.

Wang Jianye just prepared the New Year’s Eve dinner, a big table with a total of sixteen dishes.

There are eight major cuisines, and two dishes were selected from each.

"Brother, you can cook so many delicious dishes!"

“It’s really delicious.”

"Brother, your cooking skills are amazing."

"..."

Wang Jianting, Wang Jianwu and others praised the food highly.

They never get tired of the food cooked by Wang Jianye.

The family ate their fill and there was still a lot of food left.

For at least the next three days, you will have to eat these leftovers, heating them up over and over again until they are all finished.

The food was taken away and peanuts, melon seeds and dried fruits were served.

Zhang Lan gave New Year's money to all five children in the family.

Wang Jianye also gave his younger brothers and sisters a small red envelope, and Wang Jianting and Wang Jiannan were all very happy.

Otherwise, why do children like the Chinese New Year? They get lucky money, wear new clothes, set off firecrackers, and eat delicious food.

Last year Wang Jianye bought two fireworks, one was a 28-shot set and the other was a sky full of stars.

Wang Jianye bought a total of five this year.

At midnight, the new year arrives.

Thousands of households in Beijing set off firecrackers and fireworks.

Wang Jianye's family came to the yard, and Liu Haizhong, Xu Damao and other families also came out to watch the fun.

Wang Jianwu took a stick of incense in his hand, lit the fuse and ran away.

Pull!!

Snapped! ! !
Brilliant fireworks exploded in the sky.

Heralds the arrival of the new year.

No matter how many conflicts neighbors have had in the past year, they all say Happy New Year.

……

Spend the New Year at home.

Wang Jianye did not stay at home to sleep, but rode his bicycle back to the courtyard in front of the house.

The next morning, Wang Jianye got up very early.

After washing up, I went to the door opposite and knocked.

Chen Kejia opened the door and smiled when she saw Wang Jianye: "You are here, come in quickly."

Wang Jianye, the future son-in-law, came to pay New Year's greetings.

The future father-in-law and mother-in-law were very happy. Chen Xiaobao was also very happy to meet Wang Jianye because Wang Jianye gave him some high-quality soft candies that he had never seen before.

After paying New Year's greetings, Wang Jianye took Chen Kejia and Chen Xiaobao to the temple fair.

As a light bulb, Chen Xiaobao is very qualified.

As long as he bought them food and toys, he didn't care if Wang Jianye and Chen Kejia held hands or whispered to each other.

At the Changdian Temple Fair, brother and sister Wang Jianye and Chen Kejia met Zhang Lan and Wang Jianting.

"Oh, what a coincidence."

Chen Kejia and Wang Jianting talked for a while.

Afterwards, we all visited the temple fair together and had fun for the whole day.

……

After the Chinese New Year, Wang Jianye should consider marrying Chen Kejia. Before the New Year, Chen Kejia agreed to marry Wang Jianye, so there was no need for a proposal.

Next, you need to consider getting a marriage certificate, sending wedding invitations, inviting guests, holding a banquet, receiving gifts, etc.

The two families discussed together for a few days and finally decided when and how to do these things.

As for the banquet, we set up a few tables in Wang Jianye’s yard, which was big enough.

The people invited are mainly the man and woman, important relatives, teachers, leaders, etc.

By then, Wang Jianye, the groom, would no longer be able to cook for himself.

The cooking was done by no one else but Chen Xiaoyang, Wang Yijun and Cheng Jie.

After all, the skills of the three of them have reached the level of a top cook, which is more than enough for preparing a banquet.

Moreover, he is my apprentice whom I have trained for a long time, so I am confident in his skills and character.

The day to get the certificate arrived.

Early in the morning, Wang Jianye and Chen Kejia dressed up beautifully, took the certificates they had issued in advance, and rode their bicycles to the Civil Affairs Bureau.

At around ten o'clock in the morning, we finally completed the formalities and got the marriage certificate.

Chen Kejia carefully put it into her pocket, with a smile on her face all the time.

Chen Kejia used to be quite lively and cheerful, but after getting the marriage certificate, she seemed like a different person. She became especially well-behaved and blushed shyly all the time.

The wedding banquet was held the day after obtaining the marriage certificate.

All the relatives, friends and leaders who were invited came.

For example, Wang Jianye’s maternal uncle, grandfather, several uncles, Chai Wenshan, Master Luo, Zhou Qingde, Master Qian, Master Cheng, Zheng Hao, Jiang Rongqing, Sha Zhu, Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong and so on.

Some people who were not invited also came.

For example, the managers and owners of several restaurants in Sijiu City, including Master Xu and Manager Zhang of Cuihualou, and some businessmen.

Wang Jianye received them warmly and sent them his blessings.

There were so many guests that the house, yard, and shop were all filled with tables.

When toasting, Wang Jianye did not use the system space to cheat, but really drank a lot of wine.

But he had a good alcohol tolerance and didn't get drunk in the end.

After the ceremony, the guests finished the banquet and left. It was five o'clock in the afternoon.

The apprentices helped to clean up the house, replace the borrowed tables, chairs and benches, etc., so the groom Wang Jianye didn't have to worry about anything.

At seven o'clock in the evening.

Everyone who should have left had left, leaving only Wang Jianye and Chen Kejia at home.

The first thing the two of them did in the room was to count the gift money, and count and calculate clearly how much each person gave, so that it would be convenient for future interactions.

At eight o'clock in the evening, I finally counted all the gifts I received that day.

"182 yuan! We actually collected so much!"

Chen Kejia was surprised.

Wang Jianye didn't expect that he would receive so much gift money. It seems that he has a really good relationship with people.

After counting the gift money, Chen Kejia kept it safe.

I prepared some warm water and soaked my feet with Wang Jianye.

I've been tired all day, busy with various wedding matters. Now I can take some time to soak my feet. It feels so comfortable.

When counting the money before, Chen Kejia was muttering to herself non-stop.

While soaking her feet, Chen Kejia said little and her face became more and more rosy.

From now on, she will live here and live with Wang Jianye.

At the same time as being happy, nervous, and expectant, she rubbed the corner of her clothes with her fingers and didn't dare to look at Wang Jianye beside her.

Wang Jianye had never seen Chen Kejia like this before, and he had drunk a little bit of wine, so he felt a little hot inside and drank a few more sips of water.

Spring nights are worth thousands of dollars.

On the wedding night, Wang Jianye did not delay any longer. After soaking his feet, he picked up Chen Kejia and walked towards the bridal room.

The bridal room has been tidied up, with red quilts, pillows and sheets embroidered with mandarin ducks, and red wedding characters pasted on the wall, creating a special atmosphere.
