Several people were eating and drinking, and when half of the dishes on the table were left, the roast duck was served. Several people put down their chopsticks and watched the chef slicing the duck. After a while, two large plates of roast duck were placed on the table. One duck rack was taken away to make soup, and the other was packed at the counter. Jiang Feng had already given instructions.

Jiang Feng stood up and picked up the dough with chopsticks. He asked everyone to eat it while it was hot. He wrapped one first and handed it to Zhao Xuelin. After watching Zhao Xuelin eat it with a slightly red face, he started to eat it himself. Xiaowei was fed by his mother on the side.

All the dishes were served. Huang Ming and Jiang Feng drank slowly while Xin Xin asked them to eat more. By the time the soup was served, most of the dishes on the table had been eaten. Jiang Feng was afraid that he would not be full, so he was stopped by several people, but a few steamed buns were still served.

Each of them had another big bowl of soup, and Jiang Feng ate two more steamed buns, which was enough for him. Xiaowei was already full and sat there not wanting to move.

Seeing that it was almost done, Huang Ming stood up and said, "Is everyone full? I think it's almost done." Several people also stood up quickly. Aunt Zhang said, "Yes, it's the fullest we've eaten in the past few years. I think it's almost done. I'll send Xiaoxue back first and talk to her parents."

Huang Ming nodded. Jiang Feng looked at Zhao Xuelin, who blushed again. Aunt Zhang said, "No need to send me off. It's just right for Xiaoxue and I to digest our food."

Huang Ming also spoke up: "Xiao Feng, return all your things first. Don't you have a duck skeleton? Pack it up and give it to Aunt Zhang. Aunt Zhang has worn out several pairs of shoes because of you."

Jiang Feng nodded quickly and returned the soda bottle first. He kept the unfinished wine for the evening. He took the packaged duck rack from the counter and handed it to Aunt Zhang, thanking her profusely: "Thank you, Aunt Zhang."

After taking the things, Aunt Zhang said, "As it should be. Since we have accepted this business, we must make sure that both parties are satisfied. Don't worry, I will give you a definite answer tomorrow."

After saying that, he pulled Zhao Xuelin out, and Jiang Feng and the others followed behind. After they walked out of the door, Jiang Feng approached Zhao Xuelin and said, "Xiaoxue, I'll treat you to a movie next Saturday, okay? I'll pick you up then."

Zhao Xuelin blushed and didn't say anything. Aunt Zhang stopped her and said, "Okay, I'll agree on behalf of Xiaoxue first. I'll give you the letter tomorrow."

"Okay, Aunt Zhang, take care. Xiaoxue, goodbye."

Zhao Xuelin lowered her head and blushed as she said, "Goodbye."

Several people watched the two walk away at the door. Huang Ming looked at Jiang Feng and said jokingly, "Who is the one who is so picky and said that your home is not good? Now you are not afraid to move your things to your mother's house."

"Who is it? How come I don't know? Xiaoxue is so reasonable, how could she do such a thing? How is Uncle Huang eating? Brother Zhuzi has also prepared a meal in the evening. Come back."

Huang Ming pointed at Jiang Feng, shook his head and said "Get lost". Xiao Wei threw himself at Jiang Feng's legs and said, "I want Brother Xiao Feng to take me with me. You guys go first."

Huang Ming and Xin Xin looked at each other, turned around and went to where the bicycles were parked. Jiang Feng picked up Xiao Wei and chased after him. Xin Xin saw this and quickly said, "Xiao Feng, slow down. You just ate a lot."

Jiang Feng thought so too after hearing this. Don't let him get shaken out. Jiang Feng pulled Xiaowei and bought a popsicle nearby and a few strings of candied haws. Xiaowei was shouting all the way. Many little friends looked at the things in Xiaowei's hands and drooled with envy.

When they returned to the courtyard, as soon as they entered the yard, they saw some people in the yard, including some children playing outside, but no one came up to stop the children to ask for food. After Jiang Feng parked the car, he took Xiaowei into the house. Huang Ming and others were already sitting inside.

He Xiao saw his uncle coming back, and his uncle was holding some delicious food. He ran over with his short legs, shouting incoherently, "Uncle, eat, eat."

Jiang Feng picked up He Xiao and took three strings of candied haws from Xiaowei, and gave one string each to He Xiao, He Yushui and Li Xiaoyan. Li Xiaoyan declined, and Jiang Feng said, "Give it to Minmin to try later."

Li Xiaoyan glared at Jiang Feng and said, "Minmin is so young, how can she afford this? You always spend money recklessly. I heard from Uncle Huang that he found someone today. You will have many other places to spend money in the future."

"It's okay, sister-in-law. I'm happy today. I've chosen her, but I still have to go back and tell her parents."

"It's good if he likes it. If not, I will go back this afternoon and ask my aunt and mom to ask someone. This time, it must be good. I think, how about this, Uncle Huang, you don't have to wait for Jiang Feng to say anything. You still have to trouble yourself and hurry up to get the matter done, so that he won't regret it later."

"I think it's okay. I'll ask Aunt Zhang tomorrow. If they agree, I'll make the decision. Otherwise, this kid always wants to have a free love relationship, and he'll change his mind after a while."

"Uncle Huang, this is not allowed. The teacher said that we should have free love and oppose blind marriage. I still want to get along well with Xiaoxue."

"Don't use the teacher's words to pressure me. You agreed, didn't you? Why did you get married blindly? Wait until Xiaoxue's parents agree. I think Xiaoxue is willing too. This is called being in love. The right thing to do is to get it done quickly."

Several people in the room agreed. Jiang Feng saw that everyone agreed in unison and knew that he couldn't change their minds, so he turned around and ran to tease Minmin, saying, "It's up to you guys."

After dinner, Xiaowei was so happy. He had two big meals today, and he also had popsicles and candied haws. He was just discussing with his brother Xiaofeng what to eat next time. Huang Ming glanced at Xin Xin, who came forward and asked Xiaowei, "Xiaowei, are you happy today?"

"I'm happy. It would be nice if it were like this every day."

After hearing what Xiaowei said, several people laughed happily. Everyone wants to be like this every day. Xin Xin continued, "If you are happy, you should thank Brother Xiaofeng and Brother Zhuzi. Next time, the brothers will invite Xiaowei to eat good food when they have the chance."

Xiao Wei nodded and said to Jiang Feng and He Yuzhu: "Brother Zhuzi, Brother Xiaofeng, thank you for treating me to delicious food today. When I grow up, I will treat my two brothers to delicious food, and I will also treat Aunt Xiaoyan and Brother Xiaoxiao to eat together."

Several people laughed heartily as they watched Huang Jianwei making a wish in all seriousness. Jiang Feng and He Yuzhu sent Huang Ming and his family to the door. When they came back, Yan Fugui came over and said, "Xiao Feng, Zhuzi, does this seem to be successful? Congratulations."

"Not yet, not yet. We still have to wait for the girl's reply. She looks good today. This is to thank Uncle Huang. I'll treat him to dinner tonight." Jiang Feng took out a cigarette from his pocket and gave one to Yan Fugui and He Yuzhu respectively. They then lit up in the yard.

Yan Fugui took the cigarette and lit it with Jiang Feng's help, saying, "It will definitely work. With your conditions, Xiaofeng, I don't think many families will be dissatisfied. As long as you are satisfied, Xiaofeng, there will be no problem."

"Thank you for your good words, Third Uncle. We still have to wait for a reply. We have to look around first. It's still early. Third Uncle, things are much better at home now. Jie Cheng has also been hired as a full-time employee. Now both of us are working, and our life is much better than before."

"What's good about that? I can't compare with you. Now, a higher salary doesn't help much. I still need tickets. Otherwise, I can only buy them at a high price. The monthly rations are not enough to eat."

"If it weren't for Uncle San, he would have managed to support the family in these difficult years. Now he has been given a formal job and will soon graduate. When two or three people in the family go to work, life will be better."

"Yes, more people working means more income, which is good, but in this year, I don't know what will happen this year."

"Hey, Third Uncle, this is not something we ordinary people should discuss. I have something to do at home and need to go back to check it out. Let's go, Brother Zhuzi."

After saying that, Jiang Feng threw down his cigarette butt, stomped on the ground, and pulled He Yuzhu away. After the two returned to the house, He Yuzhu asked, "Xiao Feng, I see you always have a few words with the Third Uncle, didn't you say that this guy is not worth making friends with?"

"It's not okay, and it's still like this now, but it's okay to just be an ordinary neighbor. Just don't get too close. You see, in meetings now, the second uncle and the third uncle can basically handle things fairly, and if they can't handle them, they will ask people to report it. Why is that?"

He Yuzhu looked confused: "Why? I didn't do this before."

"It wasn't like this before. It became like this after the first uncle stepped down. The second uncle wanted the position under him, and the third uncle was reluctant to give up the small subsidy.

After Yi Zhonghai stepped down, the two of them watched Yi Zhonghai closely, fearing that he would come back. You see, the Jia family won't get any benefit from making trouble in the courtyard now, and the two masters don't support her family anymore, and they seem to be suppressing them on purpose."

"That's right. A few days ago, Jia Zhang was looking for trouble with the Zhang family in the backyard, but they fought back. The second uncle said that what the third uncle said made sense. He said that if she knew that throwing a tantrum would not bring her any benefits, she would naturally stop doing that."

"Yes, first of all, it makes people in the courtyard afraid of her family. That's why I agreed to change her room and cut off her way of threatening others. Do you think she really wants to die? She is just trying to scare people. Without these tricks, Yi Zhonghai will come down again, and she will naturally not make trouble anymore."

"You're talking about the Jia family. I know the Jia family. I guess they can't make it anymore. Jia Zhang makes trouble every day, and Jia Dongxu can't control it. Look at Jia Dongxu now. He has changed a lot in the past few years. In the past, when Jia Zhang made trouble, he would at least say a few words. Now he is just a coward, hiding in the house and not coming out."

"You think too much. They are not hiding. No family has had a good time in the past few years. If Jia Dongxu were to care about Jia Zhangshi, she would grab food in the house. She would not care about pregnant women and children. She only cares about herself."

"You said Jia Dongxu was deliberately ignoring it. He always said he was tired. He rarely wandered around the courtyard now. I usually saw him as if he was exhausted. But he never thought about the difficulties faced by his family. He never thought about how Jia Zhangshi would live if she ate their food."
