Golden Color Xiangjiang: A Young Man's Dream in a Siheyuan

Yan Bugui returned home and lay down on the bed directly, closing his eyes and resting for a long time before he finally recovered.

At this moment, Yan Bugui was filled with anxiety and confusion, and had no idea how to resolve this fierce conflict with Zhou Jin.

What's worse is that there was nothing in the family that could be given to Zhou Jin as an apology.

Of course, this was just a result that Yan Bugui used to comfort himself. Even if the Yan family really had it, Yan Bugui would never be willing to give it away.

Because his life motto is "If you have enough food and clothing, you will be poor, but if you don't plan well, you will be poor", and his principle of action is to spend as little money as possible to accomplish big things, and it would be best if he could get things done without spending any money.

Therefore, unless it was absolutely necessary, Yan Bugui would never make such a huge sacrifice.

However, reality dealt him a heavy blow.

Yan Bugui knew very well that if he could not resolve the conflict with Zhou Jin as soon as possible, his work would definitely be affected. This was an unavoidable fact.

Therefore, Yan Bugui made up his mind that he must solve Yan Jiecheng's work before his own work was affected.

In this way, even if his job was affected or even he was fired, with the family savings, at least Yan Jiecheng's job could support the family.

And what if Zhou Jin was just trying to scare me before? Then my family would be a dual-income family, and our lives would only get better and better in the future.

Therefore, Yan Bugui decided that he could not wait any longer and decided to go find Teacher Ran today. No matter if he used deception or any other method, he must make Ran Qiuye meet Sha Zhu three times.

At the same time, Zhou Jin and his friends had also arrived at the Lou family mansion. Lou Bancheng and his grandfather stood at the door to greet them, while Lou's mother and grandmother were upstairs accompanying Lou Xiaoe.

Although only family members are attending today's wedding banquet, the proper ceremony is still necessary behind closed doors.

Grandpa is very aware of this, and today he will be responsible for presiding over the wedding process of Zhou Jin and Lou Xiao'e.

Since the wedding ceremony is held at home, all procedures need to be adjusted to a certain extent.

The basic wedding process is as follows: The first step is that Zhou Jin needs to go to Lou Xiao'e's boudoir and carry her downstairs or hug her downstairs.

In the second step, the formal wedding ceremony will be held in the living room, with the elders from both sides of the couple sitting at the top to witness the worship ceremony held by the couple in front of the elders, including worshiping heaven and earth, worshiping parents, and the couple worshiping each other.

The third step is for the newlyweds to drink the wedding wine together. The wedding wine is a kind of melon gourd, which symbolizes the union of husband and wife.

The fourth step is that after the wedding ceremony, the banquet officially begins.

As it was still early, Zhou Jin handed the items he had brought to Lou Bancheng first, and then went over the wedding procedures with his grandfather.

Although the process was relatively simple and Zhou Jin had witnessed it in many TV dramas before, he had some understanding of it, but he still hoped to understand it more deeply.

After all, this is her own wedding, and any mistake may cause unnecessary trouble.

It should be noted that businessmen pay the most attention to Feng Shui, especially on such an important festive day, they cannot afford to make any mistakes.

In order to avoid attracting attention to the wedding banquet, Lou Bancheng specially invited the chef from Fengze Garden to come to the Lou family one hour in advance to prepare the dishes, and Lou's mother's Tan family dishes were also ready.

So, at about 11 o'clock in the morning, the kitchen had already prepared all the dishes.

After personally inspecting the food, Lou Bancheng settled the wages and personally sent the chefs out of the Lou Mansion, and told them not to spread the news.

After hearing this, the chefs of Fengzeyuan nodded in agreement.

They are fully aware that this is their duty as chefs and the responsibility they should bear.

What's more, if they can meet Lou Bancheng's requirements and make friends with him, they will have plenty of opportunities to earn extra money in the future.

After all, rich people tend to socialize closely with other rich people, and once Lou Bancheng is recognized and recommended, other wealthy people will flock to him.

Although Fengzeyuan is already well-known in Beijing, they are not the only restaurant in the city, and he is not the only famous chef. It can be said that the competition among them is still fierce.

Especially for those chefs who have already become famous, although they can get considerable remuneration every time they host a banquet outside, there are only a few clients who can invite them to come out, and there are only one or two opportunities a month at most.

More importantly, they could not lower their status and host banquets for ordinary people, otherwise it would not only damage their own reputation but also steal business from other peers.

Some people may question: "Since these chefs have reached such a high level, how could they still be short of money?"

However, the truth is not that simple. Although they are the best in the culinary field, they are still human beings and face the same pressure of reality - to support their families.

It is human nature for everyone to desire a better life for themselves and their loved ones.

To realize these wishes, money becomes a key factor.

Especially for those who pursue a higher level of culinary skills, the funds required are far beyond what ordinary household expenses can match.

High-quality ingredients and rare seasonings are expensive, and every attempt at a new dish means a huge expense.

Just like the classic line in the movie "The Richest Man in Xihong City" said: "Xia Zhu said she didn't like money, but every moment when Wang Duoyu touched her was piled up with money."

Therefore, we cannot ignore the essence of human nature.

Even the elite in the culinary world cannot transcend worldly demands.

Although their skills are extraordinary, their inner desires are no different from those of ordinary people. While pursuing excellence, they also need to face the challenges of reality and strive to balance the contradiction between dreams and reality.

After all, we are all ordinary people and it is difficult to escape the troubles of this world.

The day after Yan Bugui and Xu Damao convened a meeting of the entire institute, Zhou Jin told Lou Bancheng and Lou's mother about this matter.

Therefore, apart from the invited chef and the kitchen helper he brought today, no other aunts were called to help. As for Xu's mother, she would never work for the Lou family again in her lifetime. I don't know if she knows the news now.

So, after the chefs from Fengze Garden left, they were the only ones left in the Lou family mansion.

At this moment, Lou Xiao'e had been in the bedroom for the entire morning. Frankly speaking, she was really impatient and just wanted to see her brother Jin as soon as possible.

However, the etiquette of marriage customs could not be abandoned, and the waiting time would not be too long, so Lou Xiao'e had to grit her teeth and wait patiently.

Lou's mother and grandmother were afraid that Lou Xiao'e would feel bored, so they kept chatting with her, but the topics they talked about were a bit off-topic and even a bit obscene.

The most that happened between Lou Xiao'e and Zhou Jin was kissing, holding hands, and hugging. She had no experience at all with the things that Lou's mother and grandmother described.

Therefore, it wasn't long before Lou Xiao'e's face turned red.

Although she felt a little embarrassed, Lou Xiao'e still listened very carefully and wanted to take a pen and paper to write down all the key points.
