There are also hotels in rural areas. Why do some rural people like to have them in their own homes?

Because rural people value distant relatives more than close neighbors, when neighbors in the same village hold banquets, in addition to sending congratulatory gifts, each household will send someone to help with washing vegetables, clearing dishes, moving tables, setting up chairs, etc. Serving dishes, serving wine, etc., generally there are helpers according to the number of banquet tables, one person per table. The owner only needs to hire a few chefs. Neighbors who help should come in to help from the day before the main banquet, and the thank you wine ends the day after the main banquet.

So when rural people hold a banquet, it is not a happy event for a family, but a happy event for a village. As long as the family comes to help, they can take the whole family to eat and drink every day in these few days. Nowadays, rural people are the same as urban people. Most of them work in factories or run their own businesses. They get up early and work late at night. They only have the opportunity to get together and chat when hosting banquets.

If rural people hold banquets in big hotels, their neighbors will have no help. Moreover, the banquets held in big hotels only last for one meal, so there will be no matchmaking wine, main banquet wine and Thanks for the wine. There is no more festive excitement in the village. So when a banquet is held in a hotel in rural areas, people will gossip behind their back: This family is too stingy!

The custom of rural people liking to hold banquets at home has also given rise to some industries. For example, for banquet chefs, the chef team generally consists of chefs, assistant cooks, etc. Rural banquet teams are also very busy after entering autumn and winter. If they do not make an appointment in advance, they may not be able to hire them. Therefore, as long as there is a certain day for a banquet, the first thing rural people do is to invite a chef, and the second thing is to send invitations to inform relatives and friends. In the past, chefs just opened the menu and cooked the dishes, but now some have to help the hosts prepare ingredients.

Tables, stools, bowls and chopsticks rental, banquet tent rental industry. In the past, rural people used to borrow tables and stools from neighbors for banquets, but now there are special banquet tables and stools for rent. In the past, when rural people held banquets, if there were too many tables that could not be accommodated in their own home, they would put them in other people's homes. Now that banquet tents are available for rent, you can set up several large tents on your own land to hold the banquet tables.

Personally, I think it will be more lively if you hold a banquet at your own home, and you can save some money on the banquet. But there will be more things, and you need to worry about many things by yourself.
