Outside Yuncheng People's Hospital.

Early in the morning, Minmin's mother frowned with a dark face, carrying a bulging bag in her hand, and walked angrily into the hospital after getting off the bus.

Minmin followed beside her, glanced at her mother's expression, and whispered:

"Mom, change your expression."

She said she was visiting a patient, but her face looked like she was visiting an enemy; it would be better not to come at all.

Minmin's mother snorted unhappily: "Let me tell you, if it weren't for you insisting on that young man spiritual energy, I would never have agreed to let you marry into such a family, no matter what your father said."

"Look at your future mother-in-law, what era is this, to save on air conditioning bills, she saved herself into the hospital?! Let me tell you, if you live with her in the future, you'll have a hard time."

Minmin's mother got angry just thinking about it.

They raised their daughter, how could they not know what she was like?

With that salary of a few thousand yuan in her pocket, she buys milk tea today, new clothes tomorrow, goes to the movies the day after, and wants to go traveling every three to five months.

She's been working for many years, but hasn't saved a single cent, and often has to rely on the two of them to subsidize her.

And yet, she found a boyfriend; people call it complementary—

How is this complementary?! This is an extreme reversal.

The daughter is a spendthrift, while the other family is all about saving; not only does he save, but the whole family saves like that.

She and Minmin's father both have jobs, have pensions after retirement, have a house, and no loans; seeing the child spend like this, they didn't think there was a problem, but they didn't expect...

In short, she got angry just thinking about it.

Minmin watched from the side, feeling weak, thought for a moment and asked: "Then tell me, is spiritual energy a good person?"

When she said this, Minmin's mother's expression stiffened again.

Zhu spiritual energy, that young man, is tall, sturdy, has dark skin, and has an honest look when he smiles.

To say how satisfied she was, that wasn't possible at first; at most, she just felt he looked honest.

It was just that at first, he came over to eat every day, and the couple thought it was because the young man was energetic and deeply in love, running from far away early in the morning just to see Minmin—even though they could see each other at work.

Later, they found out he was a miser, just to save that little bit of breakfast money.

But by then, Zhu spiritual energy had already been over a dozen times, and he had even climbed a ladder to clean up the insect carcasses accumulated on the ceiling light in their living room.

Now the house is bright and clean, and people in the neighborhood have even asked her how she could afford to hire a domestic worker and how much it costs per hour.

If nothing else, just looking outside, the blue glass of their old staff quarters looked even brighter than everyone else's.

With that said, Minmin's mother didn't know whether to be satisfied or not, and the whole person became conflicted.

It was hard enough that the relatives sent such practical gifts this time, and the future child's cousin's family looked handsome, so she finally felt at ease.

She didn't expect that this sense of ease wouldn't even last a night before she learned that the future mother-in-law had fainted from heatstroke and was hospitalized.

Just say if she should be angry!

She was full of anger, but given the relationship, she still had to come and visit.

Thinking about it, she paused at the hospital entrance and finally rearranged her expression.

Minmin watched from the side and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhu spiritual energy was waiting at the entrance of the emergency building, and when he saw the mother and daughter, he trotted over to greet them:

"Auntie, why did you come too? It's so embarrassing to get up so early... My mom is fine, she's just observing here."

Minmin's mother glanced at him, thinking that the honest young man knew how to put a good face on his parents.

What do you mean observing, she's just mooching off the hospital's air conditioning, right?

But she didn't say anything, just smiled and said with heartache: "You've been guarding here all night, how hard it must be. Come, Minmin said you love the buns I make the most, so I steamed a big pot early this morning and cooked porridge... Where are your parents?"

Zhu spiritual energy happily took the things and led the way:

"My parents are fine, they are preparing to leave in a while."

Otherwise, with so many people in the hospital early in the morning, wouldn't they be in the way?

It was just that Minmin said she wanted to bring her mother, so they were too embarrassed to stay.

But then again, seeing these future in-laws, the two families chatted warmly for a few sentences.

Aunt Hongmei ate a bun, sighed at the fragrance, and didn't forget to tell them a piece of good news:

"By the way, Tantan came to see me last night and said that there might be rain in a few days, so it won't be convenient to go play in the village."

"It just so happens that they are going to catch fish in the pond these two days. Minmin, why don't you go with spiritual energy and take your parents to play there too?"

"There is a homestay at home, so I'll just book two rooms for you later. There's a place to stay, and you don't have to spend money to play."

Auntie had a plan in mind; Tantan's things were so expensive, she wouldn't urge people to buy them anyway, so she only mentioned food, drink, and accommodation.

On the other hand, she couldn't help but feel heartache: those who go there, how could they bear not to buy anything?

This money definitely couldn't be paid by them, spiritual energy had to show some gesture.

Oh my, thinking about this, her heart ached so much she wanted to twitch again.

But fortunately, the heatstroke was really better, and she didn't feel uncomfortable enough to faint, just bit into the bun with heartache, thinking of her future daughter-in-law, and gritted her teeth to endure it.

But Minmin and Minmin's mother saw her expression of enduring pain.

Because of this, Minmin's mother's bad mood from early in the morning inexplicably subsided!

She looked at Zhu spiritual energy, who was stingy but capable, won unanimous praise from the family, and was becoming more and more pleasing to the eye, and smiled:

"Okay, it's good to go play... When are you going? Tomorrow?"

Zhu spiritual energy got the instruction and planned enthusiastically:

"Tomorrow! I'll work one more day today, and we can set off early tomorrow morning. But it's hot now, and people in the village don't work after nine o'clock. If you want to have a good time, you have to get up early—"

Auntie's family had made detailed arrangements, and Song Tan, after sending off Little Zhang, also received news and told Boss Chang: "I'll have you catch some fish from the pond tomorrow first."

There are three ponds at home now, one after another, and the river ones are not so urgent.

Boss Chang had made all the preparations—

Including, but not limited to, notifying employees to have a meeting as soon as he got the news the day before, and then all account managers sent messages to the clients they could contact.

Mini-programs, official accounts, various link pages, all arranged.

Local push articles—oh, no need to pay for local push articles, people will pay attention to them naturally.

In short, many members woke up and learned that Chang Le Ju was going to hold a full-fish banquet!

Of course, according to their usual style, the name of this full-fish banquet is not called a full-fish banquet, but—

【Pond Wild Fun, Invite You to Appreciate Together】

Below is the detailed introduction.

Most of the members are people in Shancheng who have quite a bit of wealth, or are quite willing to spend money on their mouths, and stared at their phones again and again—

Good heavens!

That stingy Chang Letian who likes to limit quantities is different!

Actually have some pond—hey, it's a mouthful! It's this full-fish banquet!

Is this still the fish that they usually have to scramble to order and is limited in quantity?! Is Old Chang not living his life anymore?

Everyone whispered and pondered:

According to this routine, is Chang Letian trying to make a big wave and then run away with the money?

Otherwise, why would he be so generous?

Usually, green vegetables are limited, tomato scrambled eggs are limited, and even salted duck eggs are limited... This fish wasn't supplied much before, and now it's a full-fish banquet?

Everyone discussed it with enthusiasm, and at the same time, they poked the reservation button without hesitation.

What? You say the deposit for ordinary members participating in the full-fish banquet is 1999?

Just kidding, they are already members, if they don't go all out when they encounter such a thing, why save the money?

Until the account manager looked at the number of reservations soaring, he panicked:

"Boss, why don't we divide the levels? Let's limit the number of ordinary VIPs, otherwise, if this continues, we won't be able to supply it."

Old Chang was also rarely so generous with Song Tan's guarantee, and when the account manager said that, he was still ready to wave his hand and earn this wave generously.

Who knew he would suddenly think—

The Song family just wanted to reduce the amount of fish in a few ponds, keeping only about half, not saying they would sell everything!

And the ones in the river.

Don't look at such a large area, but if they haven't been caught for a day, they don't have his name on them yet.

Thinking about this, he hurriedly changed his words:

"Limit! Limit! Come, let's discuss the specific VIP quota!"

Since they were going to have a meeting, the chefs headed by Chef Qian in the back kitchen scolded and came up:

"You can't do this when you encounter good ingredients!"

"Exactly! A full-fish banquet has momentum and can earn a lot of money, but what about next time?"

"Steady flow is the right way. Once this full-fish banquet is on, everyone will be like pigs arching for food, not cherishing it as much as usual, how can they taste anything?"

Boss Chang was suddenly broken: "Is it that I don't want to sell them one by one? Can you raise them well?!"

He tried, the fish was brought back, raised in the Song family's water, with oxygen pumps, and large fish tanks were prepared.

The fish didn't die inside, but after raising them for two days and eating them, the taste was a layer lower.

After raising them for two more days, it was another layer lower.

In the end, not only was the taste wrong, but the weight was also less. Who can he reason with?

If it weren't for this, why would he make such a big noise!

Chef Qian also raised fish in the kitchen, and thinking of this, he couldn't help but shrink back with a guilty conscience.

After a pause, he said: "Our river fish have too small thorns, this fish can't be eaten in a hurry, it's easy to get thorns stuck. Why don't we think of a way to ask them to eat slowly?"

Before he finished speaking, Boss Chang's resentful eyes drifted over—

Wasn't he busy with his feet not touching the ground, unable to take care of these minor details?

Chef Qian immediately shut up and led a group of people down.

Until someone in the back kitchen asked carefully:

"If there are so many fish, is the boss willing to ask us to buy a few back?"

"I eat very well here every day, but my family's elderly, children, and wife haven't tasted this good taste properly yet."

When this was said, Chef Qian's waist straightened again:
