The banquet officially kicked off with laughter and joy. The spacious and bright banquet hall was decorated magnificently. A huge and exquisite dining table was placed in the center, filled with a dazzling array of delicacies. The colorful dishes complemented each other and exuded bursts of rich aroma, as if an invisible hand gently tickled people's taste buds, making people salivate.

When Yi Zhonghai and the aunt walked into the banquet hall, their eyes were instantly attracted by the delicacies on the table. The first thing that caught their eyes was a delicious squirrel fish, which was fried golden and crispy, like a piece of bright scales shining with charming light.

The sweet and sour sauce was poured on top, just right for the fish, making the whole dish look like a fine work of art. Yi Zhonghai couldn't help but exclaimed: "Oh my god, look at this fish, it's just like the real thing! Just looking at it makes me hungry, Ping An's cooking skills are really amazing!"

Before she finished speaking, the aunt's eyes were firmly caught by a plate of crystal clear steamed hairy crabs placed beside her. The crabs were large and plump, and their shells were bright red, as if showing people their freshness and vitality.

When the crab shell is opened, the crab meat inside is as white as jade, plump and tender, and exudes a light fragrance. In addition, a small dish of ginger vinegar sauce is thoughtfully prepared next to each crab to enhance the flavor and remove the fishy smell. Seeing this, an aunt secretly praised in her heart: "This hairy crab is really well selected. Not only is it large, but the meat is also extremely delicious. Cooking it by steaming it retains its original flavor to the greatest extent. It is really exquisite!"

As soon as the second aunt walked into the room, her eyes were firmly caught by the colorful and fragrant fruit platter placed in the middle of the table. Various seasonal fresh fruits were cleverly combined on the plate, red like fire, yellow like gold, green like jade... They set off each other, like a colorful painting, which was not only pleasing to the eye, but also aroused people's endless appetite.

The second aunt's face was full of smiles, and she couldn't help but praise: "Look at this fruit platter, the colors are so well matched! Just looking at it makes people happy. After taking a bite, the sweet taste seems to flow into the bottom of my heart. Ping An is really thoughtful and considerate!"

At the same time, Aunt Yan Bugui also set her sights on another dish - braised lion's head. The large and round meatballs were as plump as little suns full of life, shining with a glossy luster.

The thick and rich sauce evenly coated the surface of the meatballs, exuding a tempting aroma. Around the meatballs, a few fresh and tender green leaves were carefully dotted, highlighting the nobility and deliciousness of the lion's head like stars surrounding the moon. Auntie couldn't help but sigh: "Oh my, this lion's head is so authentic! The taste is rich but not greasy, and it melts in your mouth immediately after a light bite. It is simply the best in the world! This banquet held by Ping'an's family is perfect in color, fragrance and taste!"

At this time, other guests began to take their seats. The originally empty table suddenly became lively, with a variety of delicacies. Among them, the spicy and delicious Kung Pao Chicken was particularly eye-catching. The golden chicken was tender and smooth, and each piece was cut into appropriate dices, which complemented the crispy and delicious peanuts.

The unique seasoning makes this dish not only spicy but also sweet, making people unable to stop eating. The steamed sea bass is as white as snow and very delicate, soaked in the clear and delicious soup, which is just right with the fragrance of chopped green onions. The whole dish looks fresh and elegant, with a unique flavor.

Of course, the most popular dish among children is the plate of tempting golden fried rice cakes. The outside is fried to a crispy golden color, and you can hear a "crackling" sound when you bite it gently, while the inside is soft and sticky, and the sweet taste spreads, making people intoxicated.

The middle-aged lady with bangs stared at the table full of delicious food with her mouth wide open, as if she was swept by a wave of ecstasy: "Oh my, Ping An, look at the banquet you prepared, it's so sumptuous that it's jaw-dropping! Every dish is the best of the best. This is really an eye-opener. We are in for a treat today!"

Uncle Yan Bugui, who was standing by, nodded and agreed, "That's right, Ping An. Look at how beautiful your little yard is. And how meticulously you arranged the banquet. It's really admirable! You've put a lot of effort into it. Such a grand occasion really makes people feel the warmth of home."

In this harmonious and joyous atmosphere, Liu Ping'an stood up slowly with a smile on his face, raised the wine glass in his hand high, and looked at every relative and friend present sincerely and warmly. He said in an affectionate tone: "I am very grateful to you all for coming to my humble home today. It is because of your support that this originally deserted place has instantly become lively and full of vitality. This is not just a brand new house, it also carries the deep emotional bond between all of us. I sincerely hope that in the years to come, we can get together here often, constantly bring forth new ideas, and let this precious friendship continue forever!"

After saying that, he raised his head and drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, and thunderous applause and cheers broke out at the scene.

As night falls, the courtyard is brightly lit, music plays, and guests taste delicious food, chat with each other, or enjoy the beautiful scenery in the courtyard. Everyone's face is filled with a smile of happiness and satisfaction. This moving banquet is not only a celebration of new life, but also a deep tribute to family and friendship. It will become a warm and beautiful memory in everyone's heart.
