Chapter 335: Chapter 334: Yin Peibai Gets Married
"Brother Huang, do you have any business dealing with dog skins over there? I want some."
"We do, Old Man Zhang from our village does this. How many do you want, sis?"
"Tanned, about a hundred sheets, I wonder how the pricing is."
"Our homemade dog skins are cheap, but I still need to go back and ask Old Man Zhang."
"Alright, thanks for your trouble, Brother Huang," Lin Wan smiled and put the two barrels of wine she prepared for Brother Huang onto his car. It’s a holiday, so gifts are not unwelcome.
Brother Huang had to deliver goods elsewhere, so he didn’t stay long.
Lin Wan went to the kitchen to check the preparation of the dishes. It was already past nine.
Everything was ready just in time.
Aunt Gui and Aunt Liu’s cooking skills were extraordinary; after a year of practice, they were no different from chefs in state-run restaurants.
Aunt Zhang also boiled a pot of water and started sterilizing bowls and plates to prepare the utensils.
My brother brought several types of fruit, and once arrived, the two of us sat outside, peeling some and washing others.
Liu Wei and Su Ling came directly to the restaurant, arriving after ten. They saw that Yin Peibai and the others hadn’t arrived yet.
The couple sat outside bored, helping Lin Wan handle the fruit.
Lin Wan dared not let Su Ling help with chores and quickly treated her like royalty, slicing a plate of fruit for her and placing it nearby, eating it with toothpicks.
By around eleven, everyone arrived for the meal.
Lin Wan asked Zhang Hanfu to hurry the kitchen to start serving the dishes.
The guests were mostly from government departments. Lin Wan specially gifted twenty bottles of wine and twenty bottles of rice wine to Yin Peibai, free of charge.
Additionally, as Yin Peibai’s mom arrived at the restaurant and chatted with Liang Hongmei, sharp eyes could tell they knew each other. Everyone at the table immediately knew the hotpot restaurant’s manager was the female classmate here.
Such a generous classmate is truly rare. Not only did Yin Peibai have face, but his parents were also honored.
"Oh, I also want a sip," Lin Wan said, sitting at the table with Su Ling. They were Yin Peibai’s family, with her girlfriends.
"You can have a sip, but that’s all I have. Hurry up before your Liu Wei sees me and blames me."
"Just one sip?"
"If you don’t mind the baby in your belly, then drink."
Su Ling immediately deflated, "I’d better not, not even one sip."
Lin Wan smiled, knowing she cherished her child.
After the banquet ended, Lin Wan went to Grandma’s place in the afternoon. She brought some canned food and malted milk extract. The little one was almost half a year old and could drink some malted milk extract.
My brother was on vacation, and he took Saozi and the child to the department store. They planned to visit the in-laws tomorrow.
Leaving Grandma alone at home.
Lin Wan stayed with Grandma for a while; when leaving, Grandma gave her several pieces of soap. Lin Wan didn’t hesitate to take her favorite facial soap.
Being this extravagant, not knowing if Saozi would feel uncomfortable seeing it.
Early the next morning, Lin Wan took the tickets Han Yi had saved over the months and went to the grain and oil store. She sold several dozen pounds of rice and white flour.
She also bought two small jars, sixty centimeters tall and forty centimeters in diameter, intending to take them to the military area to store rice and flour.
Besides these, Lin Wan also bought plenty of cooking spices, oil, and salt.
Loaded a tricycle.
Back home, with nothing much to do, she knitted scarves. In the evening, she told Brother and Mom she’d visit Han Yi the next day. She asked Mom to look after the house.
"Go ahead, I’m here with your brother, the distillery is on holiday, and Xiao Gu is at the shop. We have nothing much to do."
"Mom, tomorrow Brother Huang is coming, please tell him that after he finishes delivering goods tomorrow, see if he can come to the shop to pick me up. I’m bringing a lot of stuff."
