Farmer’s Stepmother’s Skillful Farming

Chapter 860 Full Moon Banquet

Chef Luo naturally agreed happily, and took the initiative to arrange for Shao Anping to go home with Baishui Liuyi to help. He even sent some congratulatory gifts for Baishui Liuyi to take back.

“I was afraid that Chef Luo would not allow you to take leave. Unexpectedly, Chef Luo also took the initiative to say that I might not be able to do it alone and asked you to help me.”

On the way home from Fucheng, Bai Shuiliu mentioned this matter, feeling both excited and surprised.

"You are Chef Luo's beloved apprentice. Naturally, I think about everything for you. I am the third-class apprentice here. On weekdays, I am the same in Hongyun Building with or without me. If I want to send someone, I will naturally do it. I am such a person.”

Shao Anping explained.

"That's true, you do the most chores on weekdays." Bai Shuiliu laughed, "It's a hard work for you this time. I will definitely reward you well when I get back."

“There’s no need to talk about rewards. Just teach me two dishes when you have time.” Shao Anping said with a smile.

"No problem." Bai Shuiliu agreed simply.

Seeing Bai Shuiliu smiling as brightly as a flower, Shao Anping also pursed his lips and smiled.

 After returning home, he gathered with his family for a while, met Bai Zhiyi and Bai Yuling, and Bai Shuiliu began to make arrangements for the full moon banquet.

There has been no happy event in the family for many years, and it was a big happy event like the birth of twins. The family unanimously decided to have a good celebration.

 So this banquet is naturally not careless.

 After getting the approximate number of people who came to eat the noodles from Bai Kangyuan, Bai Shuiliu began to prepare to buy various vegetables and meat and began the preliminary preparation work.

Shao Anping, on the other hand, was busy following Bai Shuiliu, barely taking a moment to rest.

"This little guy has such a good temper, no matter how much he is ordered around, he never complains at all." Su Mulan lamented, "Although he was assigned by Chef Luo, he is still doing things for others. There are so many things going on, and I always feel a little irritated, but I see that this little guy is sincere and trying his best, and he seems to be an honest person.”

"I guess so." Bai Shitang also nodded, "I work hard and work hard, and I don't just do superficial things."

“Last time when Shuiliu was pregnant, Chef Luo sent her to deliver congratulatory gifts, and this time she asked him to help. I guess I think he is steady, down-to-earth, and hard-working.”

Although he always felt that when Shao Anping was not busy, his eyes always fell on Bai Shuiliu and he couldn't move away.

But if you think about it carefully, Bai Shuiliu said that Shao Anping is a third-class apprentice in Hongyun Building. He doesn't seem to be able to learn much from the chef on weekdays. Now he probably takes this opportunity to learn from Bai Shuiliu. .

Shiraishi Tang didn’t think too much.

With the busy work of Bai Shuiliu, Shao Anping, and Feng and others who came to help at home, Bai Zhiyi and Bai Yuling's full moon banquet was held in a prosperous and grand manner.

There was an endless stream of people who came to congratulate me that day.

In addition to the people from Baijiacun, the Liu family and Chang Dali from Liujiazhuang, the Gui family from Hejiazhuang, Wu Zhuoyuan and the Wei family from Wuji Shop, as well as people who usually have business and personal dealings with Bai Shitang and Su Mulan, All arrived at home.

In addition, shopkeeper Guo from Linglong Pavilion, Grandma Qin, Heng Zhixuan, Doctor Qin from the medicinal materials shop and others also came to visit.

Even Lu Jingyan and Wan Xinyue of the Lu family, as well as some members of the Lu family, came to congratulate him.

 Even Gu Xiuwen and Lu Wenqing came with Gu Yunxi.

 Suddenly, the entire Baijia Village was excited. How much face and honor it is to have the county magistrate come to the full moon banquet in person. For this reason alone, since they are both from Baijia Village, it is a very face-saving thing to talk about outside.

And this full moon banquet, what everyone praised more was undoubtedly the dishes at this banquet.

Everything is exquisite, the color and aroma are complete, and every dish is better than the dishes in the restaurants in the county.

 Everyone praised Bai Shitang and Su Mulan for their generosity, and even more praised Bai Shuiliu's cooking skills.

“This Shuiliu is really promising, and his cooking skills are really nothing to say.”

“No, I heard from my boss that even the fish cooked in the county restaurant is not as delicious as Shuiliu’s.”

"I heard that Shuiliu is a first-class apprentice at the Hongyun Building in Fucheng. In less than two years, he will be able to work as a chef at the Hongyun Building. Who knows, he may even go to the Hongyun Building in the capital."

“Tsk, tsk, that’s really promising. There are not many promising girls in our village, but the Baishitang family accounts for more than half. I’m really envious.”

"Shuiliu must be handsome, skilled in craftsmanship, and gentle in nature. The Baishitang family also has a strong foundation. If anyone marries Shuiliu back home, he will have accumulated good deeds in his previous life."

“Speaking of which, this water willow is already fifteen years old, and I haven’t heard of a specific family. I don’t know whose family this good thing will eventually end up in..."

At the full moon banquet, apart from admiring Bai Zhiyi and Bai Yulingsheng's good looks and their lively and cute children, the women eating the banquet talked most about Bai Shuiliu's marriage.

There were even a few women who had a good relationship with Bai Shuiliu. They even teased Bai Shuiliu to her face and asked her if she had anyone she liked.

The answers given by Bai Shuiliu are also very similar.

"Not yet. My parents have arranged for a few people to have a look at each other in a few days to see if there is anything suitable. If there is something suitable, we will make a decision."

And when those women heard Baishuiliu's answer, they praised Baishuiliu for being filial and sensible.

After all, for parents, if their children get married and start a family as soon as possible, they will be able to settle down as parents. Starting a family and starting a business as soon as possible is also a form of filial piety to their parents.

 There is no problem with Bai Shuiliu's move, and it is recognized and praised by others.

Hearing these words, Shao Anping felt a twinge of pain in his heart.

Looking at Bai Shuiliu chatting and laughing with others, and being very calm when mentioning this matter, without the slightest hint of coyness, it was obvious that she had no resistance at all to her parents arranging a marriage for her, but was rather looking forward to it.

 Does that mean that in Bai Shuiliu's eyes, he is just an ordinary friend?

 At best, it was just because he worked diligently and she was able to use him easily when he was working as a handyman...

Shao Anping's eyes were a little dim.

The full moon banquet was successfully held, and after a day's rest, Su Mulan took Bai Shuiliu out.

As for the reason for going out, no one in the family said anything, but when mother and daughter came back at noon, they were all overjoyed. In the afternoon, Bai Shuiliu even brought Bai Lixia and Bai Zhuye out again. After leaving the house, when we came back in the evening, everyone was smiling.
