The main course was gradually served.
The dishes were very rich. There were nine dishes: one cold dish, three meat dishes, and five vegetarian dishes.
The meat dishes included braised pork ribs, braised pork with preserved vegetables, and carp tofu soup. As for the vegetarian dishes, they were the home-cooked dishes of ordinary people. Occasionally, they would add shredded meat and minced meat.
Even so, the dishes at Lin Yiwei’s table were much better than ordinary people’s.
For normal families, the more generous ones would have meat, while the stingy ones would have vegetarian dishes.
Therefore, the moment these meat dishes were served, they were all gone in an instant.
They didn’t use chopsticks but grabbed and snatched with their hands. It was faster this way. Otherwise, by the time you picked up your chopsticks, the others would have already snatched all the dishes.
Of course, their target was the meat and vegetables.
Although life was a little better now, they could not eat meat for every meal. Usually, they would only buy meat once or twice a month.
In the past, when they were suffering, they would only buy some meat during the New Year or during festivals.
However, now that there was ready-made meat to eat, it would be strange if they did not fight for it.
Some ate it themselves after snatching it.
Some people wanted to take it back and eat it as a family.
In short, not to mention a little bit of meat, even the plate would be licked clean.
After eating, they licked their lips as if they hadn’t eaten meat for eight to ten years.
Of course, Lin Yuelan didn’t mind it since she was used to such a phenomenon.
The meal had already started. However, Lin Yuelan’s table was unlike the other tables, where people grabbed the food randomly. After all, everyone at that table was not lacking food.
Therefore, everyone at the table opened their glasses of red wine and poured half a glass of red wine before drinking slowly.
After three rounds of wine, Lin Yiwei sighed and said,” Time really flies! In the blink of an eye, Lan ‘Er had already passed the age of 16.”
On formal occasions, Lin Yiwei called Lin Yuelan the Princess, but in private, he still called her Lan Er or Fourth Girl.
However, Lin Laosan’s family was no longer around, so there was basically no one who called her Fourth Girl anymore.
Lin Deshan listened to Lin Yiwei’s sigh and said emotionally,” Indeed. When 1 first met her four years ago, she was not even as tall as the counter in my medicine shop.”
Thinking of this, he smiled and continued,” At that time, she was so small, but she carried such a big tiger.” He made a small and big gesture and continued,” She couldn’t even see the person when she carried such a heavy tiger. At that time, the people in town thought, hehe, she was carrying a paper tiger.”
Lin Yiwei also smiled and said,” Indeed. She was so small, but she was carrying such a big tiger. People could only see the tiger and not her. At that time, everyone was so scared that they fled in a hurry. Later on, they realized that it was a dead tiger. Then, they realized that this tiger was actually carried by a child.”
“Haha…” Everyone present laughed.
They still remembered the scene vividly.
Lin Deshan smiled and said,” At that time, the girl was not as tall as the counter. She stood in front of the counter and tiptoed, but she could not see the waiter. So, this girl jumped onto the counter. At that time, the waiter was shocked.’
Lin Yuelan’s face turned slightly red. She explained,” Grandpa, you can’t blame me for this! Back then, I called the waiter several times, but he didn’t see me.
1 had no choice but to jump onto the counter.”
Lin Deshan laughed. “l still remember how you haggled with Grandpa because of that big tiger!’
Lin Yuelan also nodded and defended herself,” Grandpa, you can’t blame me for this. When I carried the big tiger on the street, many people saw such a big tiger. They said that I could sell it for 400 taels or 500 taels and make a fortune. However, when I got to you, it was only three hundred taels. I always thought that you were scamming me.”
“Haha…” Everyone at the table burst into laughter.
They had heard about how Lin Deshan and Lin Yuelan met, but they didn’t expect that their relationship would be so interesting..
