Li Laosi and Liu Biaotou, as well as Mr. Wen, etc., introduced everyone.
When the village chief and others heard that he was a member of the Guo family, they all felt pity, but did not want to arouse Mr. Guo's sadness, so they exchanged a few words.
I don't want this to fall into the eyes of Mr. Guo, but it will mean something else.
Mr. Liu stepped forward and invited Mr. Guo, "Brother Guo, let's go in for a walk together. It's rare to have such a good place. In a few days, I'll invite some friends and let's come to enjoy the scenery and have a drink."
Mr. Guo forced a smile. He responded, "Okay, I still have two jars of good wine over there. Let's bring them over when the time comes."
Everyone returned to the valley, sat in the pavilion and drank tea, walked on the trestle, washed their faces by the pool, and Be happy and relaxed.
Only Guo Qing seemed to be jumping up and down, looking here, rummaging there, even pushing open the locked courtyards and wooden houses to take a look.
This was somewhat rude and indifferent, causing the village chief and others to frown.
However, Mr. Wen knew what was going on. Looking for an opportunity, he pulled Young Master Ye behind and said a few more words.
Mr. Ye's face turned cold when he heard this, and he whispered, "If they really want to challenge you today, don't worry, just make it clear. To show mercy to others is to be cruel to yourself!"
Mr. Wen looked at Mr. Guo in front of him, Sigh softly.
"It's too pitiful for a white-haired person to send a black-haired person to someone else. I thought the matter was over, but I didn't expect there would be such trouble. It shows that good people can't do anything!"
After that, he pointed to the beautiful valley, "In the final analysis, money is what moves people's hearts. This place is so eye-catching that everyone wants to grab it."
Mr. Ye snorted coldly, "If you want to reach out, be prepared to have your hand chopped off."
Mr. Wen was struck by the sudden explosion on his body . With murderous intent, his heart shrank in shock, and he quickly persuaded, "Just talk about it."
"No, it's better to eradicate the roots and kill the chickens to scare the monkeys, otherwise this kind of thing will happen in the future." Mr. Ye raised his hand and called two soldiers to come forward. , gave two instructions.
The soldier saluted, turned around and left
quickly. A villager came to report, "The banquet is ready. Please go back to eat."
The village chief uncle greeted with a smile, "Mr. Liu, Mr. Guo, let's go back. If it's I like the scenery here. I will come here often in the future. I will never charge you any money."
"Oh, then I will come and stay for a few more days. I have to take advantage of this!" Mr. Liu joked, making everyone laugh. As he spoke, he walked out of the valley.
The weather is particularly good today, the sky is blue and cloudless. Because it is not midsummer, the sun is not that bright, but the breeze is very warm.
Two tables were opened in the Li family hall to entertain distinguished guests.
There were also eight tables set up in the yard, most of which were occupied by young and old men from the village. There were also two tables where old ladies brought their children.
The women wore aprons and sleeves, even their heads were wrapped with cloth towels, and they were neatly dressed.
A team of people followed Tao Hongying in the kitchen, washing and chopping vegetables, frying and frying.
The first team followed Zhao Yuru, responsible for serving dishes, setting out bowls and chopsticks, holding wine jars, and serving rice.
When everyone came in, they couldn't help but smile when they saw the excitement.
Life is not about how much money you have, it is about being lively and prosperous.
Mr. Liu glanced at his niece standing under the eaves, and suddenly felt that it would be good for her to live here permanently.
Mrs. Cui was hugging Jiayin. Jiayin grabbed a piece of snack to pad her belly first. The crumbs of the snack fell on her clothes. She quickly picked it up and ate it.
Mr. Liu happened to come over and couldn't help but laugh, "Fu Niu likes to eat butterfly cakes. I will buy you two more boxes next time I come over."
Jiayin immediately smiled, stretched out her hand to hug Mr. Liu, and handed him the butterfly cake in her hand, "Grandpa, eat it!"
Mr. Liu smiled so hard that his eyebrows almost flew up. Unexpectedly, he only met this child once last time. To be so close to him, you have to know how far away the grandchildren at home are like a mouse meeting a cat every time they see him.
He was careful about the fat girl in Dian Dian's arms. The more he looked at her, the more he fell in love with her.
Today's good news is wearing a new dress. Mrs. Cui had nothing to do these days and sewed it from soft cotton fabric.
The scarlet-colored slanted shirt has flowers and butterflies embroidered on the front, which is vivid. And there is a cat squatting on the goose-yellow skirt, its eyes looking at the butterflies, as if it is ready to pounce on it at any time, full of childishness and exquisiteness.
Jiayin is fair, plump and cute, with big eyes and long eyelashes. Dressing up like this makes her even more beautiful.
Mr. Wen came over and couldn't help but touch the upturned braid on her head. The soft little hair was tied with a red ribbon, which made people feel sweet.
He looked at Mrs. Cui subconsciously, not knowing what he was thinking of, and his face turned a little red.
Mr. Liu, perhaps because his throat was uncomfortable, coughed dryly and handed the good news to Mrs. Cui.
Soon, everyone took their seats.
Mr. Ye took the main seat, and the village chief and Mr. Li accompanied Mr. Liu and his son. Mr. Wen and Mr. Zhou, Mr. Guo and Guo Qing, and the miracle doctor Zhang all sat at the main table.
At another table, Uncle Zhao and several other old men, as well as escort chief Liu, Li Laosan and Li Laosi, accompanied two Li Zheng and several of Mr. Zhou's subordinates.
Instead of being picky, the two Li Zheng were very excited.
They had just carefully asked a few questions in the valley, and they were shocked when they learned that the people at the main table had all been high-ranking officials, and some had opened academies.
Not to mention, if you sit at the next table and have a meal, just letting them look outside the yard, it will be enough to brag about for a few years after you go back.
Tao Hongying's craftsmanship has always been good, and she was a stove cook before. Unfortunately, from north to south, it is difficult for a skilled woman to make a meal without rice.
Now that the family has killed pigs and bought a lot of chicken, fish, eggs and vegetables, she can finally show off her skills.
Braised pork, Sixi meatballs, stuffed tofu with minced meat, sauced backbone, chicken stewed with mushrooms, ribs stewed with radish, braised liver tips, and the essential carp leaping over the dragon's door, plus a small pot of authentic pig-killing vegetables, A total of nine dishes, a long-lasting bonus.
The banquet was so sumptuous that both Li Zheng were so shocked that they did not dare to put down their chopsticks.
Even Mr. Liu asked curiously, "Are you hiring a cook in the city?"
The village chief replied proudly, "No, the cook who is cooking the stove is the daughter-in-law of the fourth son of the Li family, and she is also Fu Niu's mother. Her ancestors had imperial chefs. Yes. In our hometown, she is very famous in the villages around ten miles away."
"Oh, no wonder Fu Niu is so good-looking. It turns out she has a mother who is good at craftsmanship." Mr. Liu said with a smile, which made everyone laugh. It was the good news looking into the arms of Mrs. Li.
Jiayin quickly covered her face. Even if she was greedy, it was not illegal.
What's wrong with being fat? I didn't steal anyone's rice!
Everyone saw the little girl blushing with embarrassment, and laughed even more.
Mr. Ye also smiled, picked up the fat girl, placed her in his arms, and called to everyone, "Use your chopsticks, the food is getting cold."
As he spoke, he picked up a piece of ribs and put it in the bowl in front of Jiayin.
Jiayin smiled brightly and immediately started chewing.
