Chapter 332

~3 min read 434 words

Weekend

The atmosphere in the Sihe Academy was a bit strange, like an ice-and-fire world with clear boundaries.

The back courtyard was bustling with noise, while the middle and front courtyards were silent.

Because they didn't want to give gifts, most residents went out with various excuses.

In the end, only the Chi family, Lu family, Xu family, and Liu family came to the Cao family to eat.

This situation made Cao Weiguo very gratified, and he entertained the guests enthusiastically.

If everyone came, he would feel something was wrong.

"This is a little bit of my intention, you can't think it's too little."

The Second Uncle generously took out a "Big Unity," and the Second Aunt covered her heart in pain.

Ten yuan!

How much corn flour could this buy!

Cao Weiguo smiled and pushed the money back: "Second Uncle, your intention is enough; I can't take this money."

The Second Uncle was stunned, and the Second Aunt was overjoyed.

Cao Weiguo announced with a joyful face: "Everyone being able to come is giving my wife and me face; no one is allowed to take out gift money."

Chi Ping'an smiled and said: "Weiguo! Isn't this inappropriate!"

Cao Weiguo smiled and said: "What's inappropriate! Everyone who can be here today is a real neighbor! Sitting together to eat a meal and having fun is not inappropriate."

Lu Jin Peng supported him excitedly: "Weiguo is righteous!"

The Second Uncle was also full of joy, rejoicing that he had made the right choice.

At the same time, he laughed in his heart at Yan Fugui for calculating a muddled account and cooling his relationship with Cao Weiguo.

Cao Weiguo shouted that he wanted gift money, obviously to test the neighbors in the courtyard.

This is great!

Initially, he let Cao Weiguo set up the banquet in the name of distant relatives not being as good as close neighbors.

When the time came, he hid because he was reluctant to give gift money.

What kind of human nature is this?

Song Yulan brought out peanuts, melon seeds, and colorful block candies.

The kitchen was busy, and Cao Weiguo cooked himself.

The five families sat in the room chatting hotly, already becoming a small collective.

When it was time to eat, one hard dish after another was brought to the table.

The five families sat at two tables, men at one table and women at another.

Chicken stewed with mushrooms, twice-cooked pork, pork stewed with vermicelli, moo shu pork, di san xian, minced meat with green beans, sweet and sour peanuts... and enough steamed white flour buns.
