Asti Girl Carrying the Curse
Chapter 253. The Last Lunch Event
The atmosphere of the village office on the third day is increasingly conducive. Mr. Cakra, Joko and Mas Typhoon have closed the last report of the land payment. So did the officers from the local bank. They started to put various files into the map.
" Thank God, it's all over!" exclaim Mr. Cakra.
" Amij!" Reply Joko and Mas Typhoon together. Likewise with two beautiful women who are officers from the bank who helped guarantee, because of relief. After feeling tired and noisy in the previous two working days
Understandably, they usually encounter many obstacles when managing the matter of land payments like this. Especially if the land by the owner does not have a certificate, still in the form of girik. Sometimes the land becomes a dispute between the children of landowners who feel entitled to get a part of the land heritage.
Not to mention the intervention, the family with the price agreement that has been set again ...So the more runyam only the problem.
Try it, if the parents of their predecessors, would be heartened. By releasing 2 meters from the entire area of the land. To be used as irrigation channels to irrigate their rice fields. Of course there will be another story.
They will all have fertile agricultural land, such as rice fields in several neighboring villages. Not dry land that can no longer be used to become their livelihood land. Because it's been abandoned for a long time.
Busyness is heard from the back of the village office building. PKK mothers are preparing lunch dishes, as well as the closing of the event. They hope that with the development of housing, their villages become more developed and develop rapidly again. Of course, it will have a positive impact on the economic improvement of rural communities. Because in other villages, it has been activating various potentials in their region.
Leon's getting restless... His family only mingled briefly with the people he wore well.Stir with Mother Sumiarsih. He never even wanted to eat together like yesterday.
At least two Elf drivers, who were forced to eat with them. In addition, at the home of Mr. Camat, Ibu Hernani always serves good food - delicious typical of the Yogyakarta area. In addition to gudeg, there is processed sambal krecek, Jenang lodeh complete with tempe and tofu bacem. In fact they also cook the mangosteen Lele and oseng mercon. Viral food from the area.
An Inova car with the logo of a bank entered the front page of the village. Two men came out the back door of the car. They look like a businessman because they are neat and good-looking. A younger man carries a sling bag on his shoulder. The arrival of the two men when entering the room lobby of the village office received the full attention of the mothers who were arranging the large dining table.
" Leon?" Call the man who used the little sling bag. To Leon who was talking to one bank employee.
" Was Adam?"
Leon was shocked to see his brother-in-law had come to this village. The man hugged Leon tightly. The bank's boss Sudewo smiled. He was the one who brought a company leader from Abadi Murti, who had invited them to work together on the big project later.
" This is Mr. Sudewo Rajab, Leon! The head of the bank, who will be a partner in our project later!"
"I, Leon Narendra Murti!"
They shake hands." So this Mr Adam David, your brother-in-law, Mr Leon?"
" Yes, he married my first sister... Later Mas Rayhan Harris will lead the housing development project in this area. He married my second sister, Alya's sister."
"Gee, it's great that I can work with young people like you!" said amazed.
" Is Asti still sick?" whispered to Adam. After the man named Mr. Sudewo was moved to check the work of his men.
" She got bad news about her birth mother's story, from her relatives who were here. Yeah, thats... So often think and make the defense of his body less strong ... Her mother's half-brother stayed a long time in Malang. We'll be leaving for the city tonight."
" It's okay, Leon! You should keep going with him... Not everyone has a straight path and no obstacles."
Leon took his brother-in-law to sit down and talk for longer. At least Leon has told his mother about the current state of Asti. All support Leon to become a man that his wife can rely on in traveling married life.
A variety of interesting dishes seemed arranged on the large dining table. There was even a mini tumpeng that had just been brought by a mother and placed on that large wooden table.
"I thank you for the additional funds given by Mr. Leon's wife yesterday, so that we have more and decent meals today !" said Ms. Sumiarsih, who was standing on the edge of the table by the pile of plates. His eyes stared strangely at the fake smile on the woman named Mother Andar Sinta.
Leon stunned. At the table, besides there is a small tumpeng, also provides yellow rice with a complete side dish. There is an egg balado, fried chicken, dried tempeh, potato parchment is also anointing. That is a variety of boiled vegetables are seasoned grated spicy coconut that seduces.
" Come on Mr. Lurah!" call Leon. Behind the man, besides Leon is the local bank chief. Soon also came Mother Hernani who took her husband Pak Prayoga.
" Welcome, Mr. Camat and Ms. Camat Sumber Sari, who deign to attend the closing ceremony at this village office !" leon said firmly.
Mother Andar Sinta's face dimmed. He moved a little back. While Mr. Camat took two steps forward. Many prayers and sayings were given by the man in his unofficial speech. At least he hopes Sumber Sari Village can become an even more advanced village with the housing development project owned by the Abadi Murti company.
" Incidentally, Mr. Leon's wife is my nephew, who lives in Central Java. From the village of Sendang Mulyo that is actually the descendants of Mbah and Mbah our great-grandfather came from. Before the family of my grandmother and grandfather migrated to Madiun, Surabaya and Malang."
Asti went ahead with Mas Adam, also Bulek Ratih and Lek No. Children are carried by their respective caregivers, namely Bu Jum and Putri. They will witness the cutting of rice tumpeng, as gratitude and prayer for many blessings.
Tumpeng rice was cut off at the end by Pak Camat. It turned out that the man instead handed the piece of tumpeng on an empty plate that Asti brought.
" This is a blessing to you Asti! May your husband's efforts be more advanced and successful... You and your family are healthy and prosperous and will always see me in this village!"
Asti was moved by giving a piece of the tip of the tumpeng, with the decoration in the form of a red chilli made like a flower that blooms.
" Thank you, Pakde!" asti. He also got a soft pat on his shoulder.
Everyone began to take yellow rice with side dishes provided in an orderly manner. After taking the rice, one by one from the security officers and the staff of the village and the other officers, left the dining room . They are looking for a more comfortable seat to enjoy a fairly luxurious lunch.
Leon helps Asti add side dishes on the plate that still leaves the tip of the tumpeng. After that Leon held Qani so that Bu Jum could join the queue to take the plate. Asti spontaneously fed her husband with yellow rice on his plate. Qani did not refuse when Asti gave him the pieces of potato parchment little by little.
The sight was seen by Mother Andar Sinta and Wati from a distance. Their faces implied various emotions of the soul. Especially after seeing Bu Lurah approaching Asti and Leon.
Yesterday he heard about the inappropriate amount of meal money that Mr. Leon had given. So the money that has to be spent, but not enough to serve decent and enough food for everyone. Until Bu Sumirah said that the tumpengan-style food was given directly by Mr. Leon's own wife, as an addition.
" Thank you, Asti, has added shopping money for this lunch...So we can make more decent food to entertain Mr. Camat and his wife." said Mr. Ratna, wife of Mr. Lurah Acmad Sudiro.
" Yes, Mom. You welcome. I am also very grateful with everyone here who greatly helped smooth my husband's business, " Asti said calmly
"Come, Mr. Leon... If it is less, add. It's impossible to eat just one plate!" Say that mother again.
" It's easy, Mom... This little one's spoiled, ma'am... Don't want to be left by his father!" whisky Asti.
The woman smiled. It was seen Qani drowning in his father's arms. He did not want to be separated from Leon even though he got the persuasion of his mother earlier.
Adam was also sitting next to Leon enjoying the food on his plate. Mr. Lurah and Mr. Camat also met and talked with his brother-in-law Mr. Leon. It was the handsome man who held the supreme head of the Abadi Murti company, based in Semarang.
