aw Leng could reply, the beautiful woman who had been closing her eyes spoke up. 。"Senior brother, I'm fine, I'm not hot anymore." 。 。"Little sister, don't say that like this " 。Mr. Wen also changed...Li Laosi, Liu Biaotou, and Mr. Wen, along with others, introduced the people to each other. 。When the village head and others heard it was Guo's family, they all felt compassion. Not wanting to bring up any sadness for Mr. Guo, they just exchanged a few polite greetings. 。Don't want these to fall into Mr. Guo's eyes and become another meaning. 。Mister Liu stepped forward and invited Old Master Guo, "Master Guo, come on, let's go in together." 。It's rare to find such a good place. In a few days, I'll invite some friends over and we'll come here to enjoy the scenery and have some drinks. 。Mr. Guo smiled reluctantly and replied, "Good idea. I still have two jars of good wine there. Let's bring them together when the time comes." 。Everyone returned to the valley, enjoying tea at the pavilion, strolling across the bridge, and washing their faces by the stream. It was all a happy and relaxing time. 。Only Guo Qing was hopping around, this way and that, looking everywhere. He pushed open the doors of all the small courtyards and wooden huts near the gatehouse, just to peek inside. 。This is a bit rude and tactless, causing the village head and others to frown. 。Mr. Wen, however, had a plan in mind. He waited for an opportunity and then, when nobody was looking, he pulled Young Master Ye aside and chatted with him privately for a while. 。Ye Gongzi's face turned cold as she listened, and she said in a low voice, "If they truly want to break it today, there is no need to worry. Just speak clearly." 。"Compassion for others is cruelty to oneself!" Mr. Wen looked ahead at Mr. Guo, sighing softly. 。"To send off a young person while one is old is truly pitiful. " 。I thought things were over, but I didn't expect such trouble. 。"Good people can't do this, you see!"
After saying that, he pointed at the beautiful valley again, "At the end of the day, wealth moves people's hearts. This place is too eye-catching; anyone would want to grab it." 。Young Master Ye coldly snorted, “If you want to reach out, be prepared to have your hand chopped off.” 。Mr. Wen was startled by the sudden surge of murderous aura emanating from him, his heart skipped a beat, and he quickly urged, “Let’s just talk this out.” 。"No, it's best to eradicate the problem at its root and make an example out of them. Otherwise, we'll have this happen again and again." 。"Master Ye raised his hand and called two personal guards forward, giving them a few instructions." 。The bodyguards saluted, then turned and left... Soon, a villager ran up to report, "The banquet is ready. Please come back to the feast, honored guests..." 。" The village chief greeted with a chuckle, “Mr. Liu, Mr. Guo, let’s head back.” 。If you like the scenery here, come often in the future, I definitely won't charge you a penny. 。"Oh, then I'll have to stay for a few more days, this bargain can't be missed!" Old Master Liu joked, causing everyone to laugh. As they talked, they walked towards the outside of the granary. 。Today's weather is especially good, the sky is blue and cloudless. Because it hasn't reached the peak of summer yet, the sun isn't that scorching. Instead, there's a very pleasant breeze. 。Li Jiatang's house had two tables set up, to entertain the distinguished guests. 。There were eight tables set up in the courtyard. Most of them were occupied by young men from the village, and there were also two tables where grandmothers had brought their children. 。The women, with aprons on and sleeves covered, even their heads wrapped in cloth, were neat and tidy. 。A group of people followed Tao Hongying in the kitchen, washing vegetables, chopping vegetables, frying and cooking. 。One team followed Zhao Yuru and was responsible for serving dishes, setting out bowls and chopsticks, carrying wine jars, and serving rice. 。When everyone entered, seeing such a lively scene, they couldn't help but smile. 。The point is not about how much money you have, but about living a lively and prosperous life. 。Mr. Liu glanced at his niece standing under the eaves and suddenly felt that it wouldn't be bad if she lived here permanently. 。Mrs. Cui was holding Jiayin, who grabbed a piece of snack to fill her stomach first. The crumbs fell on her clothes, and she quickly picked them up and ate them. 。Mr. Liu happened to walk over and couldn't help but smile, "Fu Niu likes to eat butterfly crisps, I'll buy you two more boxes next time you come." 。"
Jia Yin immediately broke into a smile, reached out and hugged Old Master Liu, handing him the butterfly pastry in her hand. "Grandpa, eat!"
Old Master Liu's eyebrows almost flew up with his laughter. He hadn't expected that this child, after only meeting him once before, would be so close to him. You see, his own grandchildren and granddaughters always ran away from him like mice seeing a cat. " 。He carefully held the chubby girl in his arms, he really liked her more and more the longer he looked. 。Today's good news was wearing a new dress, which Mrs. Cui had made in the past few days when she was free and idle, using fine soft cotton fabric. 。A crimson, diagonally-collared shirt with embroidered flowers and butterflies on the front, vibrant and lively. 。And on the goose-yellow dress sat a cat, its eyes fixed on the butterflies as if about to pounce and play at any moment, full of childlike charm and refinement. 。Jia Yin was already chubby and cute with big eyes and long eyelashes. This dressing up just added to her charm. 。Mr. Wen walked over and couldn't help but touch her braid, the soft hair tied with a red silk ribbon, making his heart feel sweet as well. 。He unconsciously looked towards Mrs. Cui, not knowing what he was thinking, his face flushed with a few shades of red. 。Master Liu, perhaps with a sore throat, coughed and passed Jia Yin to Mrs. Cui. 。Soon, everyone sat down. 。Miss Ye took the main seat, while the Village Head and Li Laoer accompanied Mr. Liu and his son, Mr. Wen, Mr. Zhou, Mr. Guo and Guo Qing, as well as Zhang the Divine Physician, at the main table. 。At another table, Zhao Shu and several other elderly gentlemen, along with Liu Biao and Li Lao San and Li Lao Si, were accompanied by two lizheng officials and several subordinates of Zhou's . 。Not only did the two men not mind, but they were also quite excited. 。They had carefully asked a few questions in the valley just now, and found out that those at the main table were all former officials and college founders. They were startled. 。Don't just say it, let them have a meal at the next table over. Just letting them see it from outside the yard will give them enough bragging material for years to come. 。Tao Hongying's craft has always been good, she was even a master chef before. Unfortunately, from north to south on this journey, it's hard to cook without rice. 。Now that she has slaughtered a pig at home and bought plenty of chicken, fish, eggs, and vegetables, she can finally show off her culinary skills. 。Braised pork, four joy meatballs, minced meat stuffed tofu, braised pork spareribs, stewed chicken with mushrooms, braised pork ribs with radish, stir-fried pig liver, and of course the indispensable carp leaping over the dragon gate, plus a small earthenware basin of traditional killing pig dishes, a total of nine dishes, to bring good fortune and longevity. 。This feast is too lavish, so much so that the two innkeepers don't even dare to pick up their chopsticks. 。Even Master Liu was curious and asked, "Did you hire a chef from the city"The village head replied proudly, "No, the cook who is in charge of the kitchen is Li Lao Si's daughter-in-law, also Fu Niu's mother. Her ancestors were imperial chefs." 。In our hometown, she's famous for cooking even in villages ten or eight miles away. 。"Oh, no wonder Fu Niu is so pretty, she must have a skilled mother." 。“Mr. Liu laughed, causing everyone to look at Jia Yin in Mrs. Li’s arms.” 。Jia Yin quickly covered her face. She just ate a little too much, it's not against the law, right 。"What did you do You didn't steal anyone's rice, did you" Everyone saw the little girl blush and her face turned red, they laughed even harder. 。Young Master Ye also smiled, picked up the chubby little girl, placed her in his arms, and beckoned to everyone, "Eat, the food is going to get cold." 。As he spoke, he slid a piece of pork chop onto Jia Yin's bowl. 。Jia Yin's eyes lit up with a smile, and she immediately took it in her hands to nibble on. 。his side, Liu Yang quietly asked, "Are you talking about that Coral maiden"She's been back for half a year after you saved her. After recovering from her injuries, she started helping out at the wound...
