"The food is ready!" When Song Cenyue and a group of other female comrades brought the dishes into the house with smiles on their faces, the men in the main room were all surprised.

“So many dishes!”

"The dishes haven't been served yet. We have to run another trip to serve them all!" He Xiaolu said. "Cen Yue is such a nice host. Guess how many dishes she cooked for us? She cooked 20 dishes for us. My family doesn't have that many dishes during Chinese New Year... We only have six dishes during Chinese New Year."

The male educated youth and the men of the Zhang family all screamed in surprise, including Zhang Shengjin, who had never seen twenty dishes before.

"Twenty dishes? My God, this is a state banquet! I've never seen so many dishes!" Xu Xiaopeng was shocked, his eyes full of joy.

What a surprise! I didn't expect to have so many dishes!

"It really feels like a state banquet. Only state banquets have so many dishes... My family is well off, but during the Chinese New Year, we only have ten dishes at most." Meng Jiang said, also looking surprised.

"My family has a little more New Year dishes than yours, only twelve dishes, but it's considered a lot of dishes in our place... but it's still less than twenty dishes. Song Zhiqing is really generous, and actually made so many dishes to entertain us!" Su Dawei's face was also full of surprise. He never dreamed that Song Cenyue would cook so many dishes to entertain them.

Twenty dishes, I can’t even think about it!

He had thought that even though there were so many guests, Song Cenyue would only cook five or six dishes for them. Unexpectedly...

And looking at the dishes in their hands, there was quite a lot of meat... He hadn't eaten meat for several days, let alone eating so much meat! What a big surprise!

“Song Zhiqing, how could you think of cooking twenty dishes? We couldn’t even imagine that there would be so many dishes!” Yu Jiahui shouted, also very surprised and happy.

"Girl Cen Yue, to cook so many dishes, you must spend a lot of money to buy the ingredients. You've wasted money... Actually, you don't need to cook so many dishes!" Zhang Shengjin said in surprise, feeling a little sorry for Song Cen Yue's spending.

His two sons also nodded in agreement with him. Song Cenyue thought that the Zhang family really treated her as their own family, so they were not surprised like the educated youth that there were so many dishes and they could eat as much as they wanted and eat well. Instead, they felt sorry for her spending money.

"I thought it was a rare occasion for everyone to sit together for a meal, and there were so many of us that if we didn't cook enough, it wouldn't be enough. I had to cook more dishes to entertain you, so I thought of cooking 20 dishes... It's okay, don't worry about the money, I have money...

I can make so many dishes thanks to the help of my aunts! If they didn't help, I would not be able to make so many dishes even if I wanted to, after all, there are too many dishes. "Song Cenyue smiled, praised the female comrades who helped cook, and then took the female comrades to put the dishes on the table.

Because she had thought that there were too many dishes and the dining table would not be able to accommodate them, she had even moved the writing desk next to the dining table so that twenty dishes could be placed.

After hearing Song Cenyue's words, the men of the Zhang family and the male educated youth all said a lot of good things about her.

Song Cenyue and the others went to the kitchen again and brought all the remaining dishes. The male educated youth felt embarrassed to do nothing, so they went to get bowls and chopsticks and prepared to help scoop up the rice.

When He Xiaolu came in with a large rice cooker, Xu Xiaopeng opened the lid of the cooker and was surprised again when he saw it was full of white rice.

"It's all white rice! This big pot of white rice must contain twelve or thirteen pounds of rice!"

Hearing Xu Xiaopeng's words, the other male educated youth were shocked. They all looked shocked and hurried to the rice pot to see if there was really as much white rice as Xu Xiaopeng said.

You know, they have been craving for white rice for a long time. They haven't eaten white rice these days and they all want to eat white rice. Xu Xiaopeng even dreamed of eating white rice last night.

But at that time, eating white rice in the countryside was a luxury.

They did not receive rice when the educated youth were distributed their rations, so if they wanted to eat white rice they had to buy it separately. They had money and food coupons, but they had been busy with farm work recently and had no time to go to the city to buy food.

Several of the male educated youth had discussed that they would find a day off from work with the team leader and go to the city to buy rice, as they all wanted to eat rice so much.

They didn't expect Song Cenyue to cook rice, and cook so much. It was a big surprise for them.

I wonder where Song Cenyue got so much rice to cook? At that time, the educated youth shared the same rations, and she, like them, did not get rice, only potatoes and sorghum flour.

Zhang Shengjin had the same question as them, so he asked, "Girl Cen Yue, where did you get so much rice?"

"I have food coupons that are valid throughout the country. I went to the city when I was not busy and used the coupons to buy dozens of kilograms of rice." Song Cenyue repeated what she had said to Dong Jinhua and the others.

Before, Dong Jinhua and her friends were helping with cooking in the kitchen. They were surprised to find that she was cooking white rice and such a big pot of it. They were very curious about where she got the rice. So she told them the explanation she had prepared before. They did not suspect anything, and the team leader and others certainly would not be suspicious either. There was no loophole in her answer.

In fact, she got the rice from the space. She did a lot of shopping before going to the countryside. She not only bought a lot of meat and sugar, but also other things, and also a lot of rice.

"So that's how it is!" The men had no doubt.

Zhang Shengjin secretly sighed that this girl was really generous. She was willing to cook so much rice to entertain the guests and buy so much meat to entertain the guests. Some people were reluctant to spend money even if they had money, and were instead very stingy.

This girl is really good!

"Xu Zhiqing, hurry up and serve some rice to everyone. It's getting dark and everyone must be hungry." Song Cenyue called to Xu Xiaopeng, and then went to find a kerosene lamp to light a lamp.

It's getting dark, and the room is getting dark. I can still see it now, but in a while others won't be able to see it anymore, so I have to turn on the lights quickly.
