Make a fortune by farming: The sweetheart of the first assistant family

Chapter 404 Precious News

The guests were invited to the Pinglehou Mansion for a banquet. Naturally, they were not just here to eat and drink. The main purpose was to establish relations with Pinglehou.

The small merchants and small landowners had no say. They never expected that Huo Yunchao would entertain them personally, without any airs of big shots, friendly and peaceful, with a bright smile.

With the support of Huo Yunchao, the head of the Wang family resolved the embarrassing incident caused by his love for petty gains. He simply stopped pretending and tasted everything in the fruit plate. What he liked, what his mother liked, what his children liked, They were all pulled in front of him by him.

Patriarch Chen and Patriarch Wang refused to deal with each other, and fell into the trap whenever they got the chance: "Boss Wang, what are you doing? You took everything away, what are we going to eat?"

He just wanted to see the head of the Wang family behave in all sorts of embarrassment in order to avenge him for being ridiculed by the head of the Wang family.

After the head of the Wang family finished chewing the hawthorn candy in his mouth, he pointed to the hawthorn candy in the fruit plate and said, "Chen Juren, don't just watch me pulling things around the house. Don't you like sweet and sour food? Try the hawthorn candy. This dried meat, hawthorn The candies, pastries, etc. are all quite delicious. After the banquet is over, I will spend some money to buy some from the Marquis and take them home."

Patriarch Chen couldn't help but look at Patriarch Wang a few times. This upstart, who was as narrow-minded as a needle's eye, was not angry?

Seeing this, the head of the Wang family took out a piece of silver from his pocket, slapped it on the table and said, "Chen Juren, I am serious. I will buy some with Mr. Hou and take it home later. Everyone here. Don't be jealous, I bought it with real money, don't go out and spread rumors that the Marquis is unfair."

Patriarch Chen cursed the nouveau riche several times in his heart, but did not dare to say any more unpleasant words.

After all, the head of the Chen family was attending Pinglehou's housewarming party, and he was not here to offend Pinglehou.

A trivial matter as big as sesame seeds and mung beans became a big deal, and the head of the Chen family couldn't eat it and walked around!

Patriarch Li and Patriarch Huang looked at each other, no one said anything, they just sat and watched the excitement.

Not long after, the servants brought delicacies one after another to the table, chicken, duck, fish, meat and eggs, all delicious and delicious.

Rao is the most noble head of the Chen family. Suddenly seeing the delicious food on the table, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

Huo Yunchao greeted with a smile: "Thank you all for coming to attend my housewarming banquet. I hope you all have a good meal and drink! Come on, everyone, stand up and join me in thanking Your Majesty for your kindness and rewards!"

As soon as he finished speaking, all the guests turned towards the direction of the capital and knelt down to thank Emperor Yong'an for his gift.

Huo Yunchao was the highest-ranking figure present. He led him in kneeling and shouted:

"Your Majesty's grace is so great that he protects the people of the world. Long live your Majesty!"

All of a sudden, the voices of kneeling to thank Emperor Yong'an rang out in unison, reaching outside the Pinglehou Mansion, to the farmland being cultivated not far away, and to the ears of pedestrians on the road, far and wide. wide.

After kneeling down to thank Emperor Yong'an, Huo Yunchao gave an order, and all the guests toasted to celebrate Pinglehou's move. They drank and drank, and the laughter continued to spread.

Pinglehou was entertaining guests in the front yard, and the backyard was not deserted either.

Xu Ning was having a hearty chat with Lin Xiaocao, Aunt Ma and other close people.

Lin Xiaocao put his son in the wooden fence given by Huo Yunchao and let him play by himself.

Little Fubao didn't want to stay in the wooden fence. She was young and very strong, and a mere wooden fence couldn't trap the eldest daughter of the Hou Mansion who was born with supernatural powers.

Except for Jia Er and the medical girl who were born in the Lian family, Xu Ning was the only one who could subdue a powerful little guy. He had to put her under his nose to truly feel at ease.

Little Fubao always sticks to her words on important occasions. She behaves well and obediently. She gnaws on the big ribs that her father specially cooked for her. She sucks the marrow from the bones with her small mouth. Forget about showing off to the "dumb brother" in the wooden fence.

The "idiot brother" in Xiao Fubao's mouth was too lazy to talk to her and just sat there chewing on the crystal bag. The crystal buns are stuffed with pure fatty meat and caramel. They are sweet and very suitable for children's tastes.

Xiao Fubao also likes to eat crystal buns, but compared to big ribs, crystal buns come second.

Lin Xiaocao looked at her son who was as calm as a mountain, and then at the little Fubao who was holding a big rib and eating it with relish, and smiled from ear to ear: "Ning Niang, the personalities of these two children are so different. If the genders were changed, they would be different." Better.”

Xu Ning disagreed with this statement. She didn't think there was anything wrong with little Fu Bao being lively and active. Girls were said to be virtuous and virtuous, but in real life, it was the shrews who were the most comfortable.

However, Xu Ning didn't want to talk about these conceptual things with Lin Xiaocao on such a good day. She smiled and changed the topic: "Sister Xiaocao, you can also give Fu Bao and her brother a taste of the big ribs later. My husband’s stew is very soft and soft, so it’s very suitable for children to eat.”

Yao Dazui noticed that Xu Ning had deliberately changed the subject, and took over the conversation very wittily: "Ning Niang, when I came here, there was a long line of carriages lined up at the main entrance of the Marquis Mansion, and all the famous landowners and merchants came. Already?"

Xu Ning smiled and said: "My husband said that he had invited all the people who could be named, saying that he had something great to share with them."

Yao Dazui was asked by her father to come here to inquire about inside information, but Xu Ning was too strict. No matter how much she asked, she couldn't get any useful information.

At this moment, Xu Ning finally relaxed: "Ms. Yao, my husband said that he would sell the secret recipe to those who need it and have the ability."

Yao Dazui's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Then can I participate in the bidding?"

Xu Ning shook her head and said, "Ms. Yao, it's not my turn to make the decision in this matter. It was my husband and the county magistrate who selected the person."

The light in Yao Dazui's eyes went out: "So that's it. No wonder the Marquis sent so many invitations."

Now that things have come to an end, Xu Ning no longer has to worry about hiding it. He pointed to the front yard and said, "My husband said, it is not wise to work behind closed doors and go out. If we want to improve our craftsmanship, we must share some secret recipes and let more people participate. Just like papermaking in the past, my husband took the lead in setting up a workshop, and then invited talented people from all over the world to come to the workshop to make progress together."

Yao Dazui heard the meaning of Xu Ning's words and stood up immediately: "Mother Ning, do you really want to open a workshop?"

Xu Ning has been dealing with Yao Dazui for a long time, and it was the first time he saw Yao Dazui so excited. He was stunned for a moment before replying: "Yes, my husband has already drawn the site for the workshop, and the construction of the workshop will start when the river embankment is repaired." .”

Yao Dazui got the extremely precious news and was very excited: "Mother Ning, I'll give you tea instead of wine to thank you and Mr. Hou for taking care of me all the time!"

Xu Ning said with a smile: "Ms. Yao, you don't have to say that. My husband said that he never does money-losing business. You have to make money when you open a workshop, and you don't give money away in vain."
