Siheyuan: How dare I mess with a man who is an expert in men's health?
Chapter 356 The main dish is here
By the time all the Zhou family's guests arrived, it was almost two o'clock.
So the wedding began. The ceremony was still simple. Both parties held up a book of quotations and took a solemn oath. It felt much more reliable than the exchange of rings and drinking from cups in later generations.
After the ceremony, the banquet began. Cao Anping took a quick look and found that there were only about thirty people in total.
He guessed in his heart: "It seems that this is a special situation now. Even a family like the Zhou family is embarrassed to hold a grand celebration.
I guess they only invited some of their closest relatives and friends, and basically only one person from each family came to congratulate them.'
After all the dishes were served, the host began to invite everyone to take a seat.
Zhou Gen pulled Cao Anping to the table with young people, and he was happy to do so. What was the point of having dinner with a bunch of old guys?
If he persuades me to drink, I can't afford to lose face, and in the end I force him to use space cheats to bully the elderly, which is too unsportsmanlike.
There are four tables in total, and the Zhou family's hall seems a bit crowded. This is probably because there is only one guest.
If it really wanted to be a grand affair, it would definitely be held in a restaurant, but now is a difficult time and no leader would be stupid enough to do such a high-profile thing.
Cao Anping glanced at the food and wine on the table and found that they were also rather simple, with only four meat dishes and a few vegetarian dishes.
Of course, no matter how simple it is, it is still a level higher than the Yan family’s dishes.
And the chef we hired is definitely not as good as Sha Zhu.
Now Sha Zhu is still a little immature. His cooking skills are a bit good in the steel rolling mill where everyone eats from a big pot, but compared with others, his cooking skills are just so-so.
Zhou Gen finally found an opportunity and began to introduce Cao Anping to the young people at the table.
Everyone was very polite to him and showed respect, and Cao Anping also got to know them one by one.
He found that these people were all children of large courtyards who were about the same age as Zhou Gen, and he couldn't help but nod secretly: "Sure enough, any social situation cannot escape the circle's rules.
But it seems that this circle is not the kind of second-generation dandy group. Everyone is well-mannered and polite. It is still possible to make some friends with them.'
What made Cao Anping a little suspicious was that one of the men with glasses, named Liu Ziwen, seemed a little too enthusiastic.
"Oh... Doctor Cao, I've heard of your great name for a long time. I admire doctors for saving lives and healing the wounded the most.
Come on, take a seat, I want to toast you a few glasses."
Liu Ziwen's eyes narrowed into slits due to smiling. After being introduced, he enthusiastically pulled Cao Anping to sit at the head seat at the table.
Cao Anping was somewhat suspicious whether this guy wanted to get him drunk, but he remained calm and took his seat directly. After all, there were only young people at the table, so there was no possibility of being rude.
He muttered to himself: "Brother, please don't force me to drink. Otherwise, I will feel guilty if I take the food away."
Liu Ziwen didn't know that he was misunderstood. Despite the strange looks from others, he was about to sit down next to Cao Anping.
But at this time, a woman came over and said, "Genzi, let your cousin sit at this table too. You young people will feel more comfortable eating together."
Several people who had already sat down quickly stood up again, calling out "Auntie" and "Auntie".
Cao Anping felt uncomfortable sitting still, so he stood up immediately. He knew that this person was Zhou Gen's mother. She had just come out to greet him and then went upstairs to accompany the female guests and look after the kitchen.
He also guessed that Zhou Gen's mother should not be a simple person either, because he found that these young people were more respectful to Zhou's mother than to Zhou's father.
Zhou's mother smiled and waved her hand, saying, "Everyone, please feel free to sit down..."
He just greeted everyone and turned his attention to Cao Anping: "Doctor Cao, you young people already know each other, right?
I have a niece who was not here just now. She admires doctors very much and is also very curious. You can chat with her about it.”
Zhou's mother pulled Qin Xue over and pinched her arm secretly.
Qin Xue was almost speechless, but she still greeted him with a warm smile: "Hello, Doctor Cao, my name is Qin Xue..."
Cao Anping was a little confused, and just responded with a smile subconsciously: "Uh...Hello, Comrade Qin Xue."
Mother Zhou didn't care about the awkward atmosphere at the table and said happily, "Okay, okay, please sit down and eat. Everyone, please don't be polite."
After saying that, she stared at Liu Ziwen deeply before returning to the table filled with women.
Liu Ziwen was just about to sit down, but his heart skipped a beat when he heard Zhou's mother's look, and he quietly moved to the side.
He secretly complained in his heart: "What do you mean by respecting the doctor? I just used this excuse. If you want to introduce someone to someone, just say it directly. You are ruining my business, wuwu..."
Everyone knew what was going on, and they exchanged glances as they sat down. In the end, only the seat next to Cao Anping was left for Qin Xue.
Qin Xue also sat down gracefully. Although she didn't have any expectations, she didn't want to refuse her aunt's kindness.
Cao Anping also came to his senses and realized that there was something else waiting to happen.
However, he guessed that she was just getting to know him, and she would probably test the waters with him later. If she really had this intention, she would bring it up.
He thought to himself, 'I have to get on with the family thing, or else this situation will only happen more and more.
It’s just that I’m really indifferent to blind dates in this era. Not only is the progress fast, but you have to take responsibility just for touching hands.
Especially for those with backgrounds, if they cross the line, there is no way to regret it.'
