Reborn as a farmer's favorite, Koi sweet wife super lucky husband
Chapter 233 Brown Rice Cake
The steady and powerful voice echoed in the empty hall, penetrating the silence with a hint of unquestionable majesty.
Almost at the moment the call fell, the two servants walked into the room silently. Wherever they looked, they saw a lifeless body lying in the shocking pool of blood on the ground. Although their expressions fluctuated slightly, due to years of well-trained training, their faces quickly returned to calm and peaceful.
"Deal with him. Also, send someone to the workshop and tell them that he resigned for personal reasons. Remember, no details can be leaked. Don't show any clues."
Qian Yunqing's words were as cold as iron, and every word revealed an irrefutable determination.
After the order was confirmed to be executed, he turned around and quietly exited from the back door. His figure disappeared into the night, leaving only a faint moonlight on the stone steps he passed. He stopped when he reached a gorgeous carriage, bowed respectfully and reported: "Master, everything has been properly handled according to your instructions."
Inside the carriage, as the curtain was gently lifted, a handsome face was revealed. His voice was low but magnetic, and his command was concise and powerful: "Keep an eye on that batch of goods, and make sure nothing goes wrong."
"Yes."
Qian Yunqing's answer was crisp and clear, and he turned around and devoted himself to the next planning and action.
Time flies. After intensive preparations, Mr. Zhou's simple private school and Lin Yu's mansion finally welcomed the auspicious day of raising the beam. The whole village seemed to be ignited by the festive atmosphere. Men, women, old and young, all with laughter, poured into these two places that were about to witness a new look.
The housekeeper of Lin Yu Mansion had made preparations in advance and specially bought four baskets of various items, which were colorful and dazzling, so that every guest could share a part of the luck in this feast.
"My Lord, Princess, please come this way."
Seeing the two distinguished masters coming, the butler stepped forward quickly, smiling broadly, and asked politely, "All the items prepared for the beam raising ceremony have been arranged according to the plan."
Wu Xu, the young but majestic prince, glanced around and confirmed that everything was correct before asking calmly, "Is everything ready?"
"Your Highness, everything is ready. We can start as soon as the time comes."
The butler answered respectfully, his words revealing his familiarity with the ritual process.
At this moment, Ran He smiled slightly, waved his hand to signal the maid Nian Xia to hand a basket full of colorful trinkets to the housekeeper, and whispered: "Mix these in with the items to be scattered."
The butler took the basket and carefully examined the small, colorful objects. He couldn't help but ask curiously, "Madam, what are these rare objects?"
Ran He's eyebrows curved, his mouth curled with a smile, and he replied: "These are called fruit candies."
"Fruit candy?!"
This word was new and unfamiliar to the butler, and he couldn't help but repeat it.
Lin Yu and Wu Xu walked over. Little Lin Yu's eyes were full of curiosity. She looked up and asked her sister: "Sister, what is fruit candy? It sounds delicious."
Lin Yu explained gently: "Fruit candy is a special kind of candy. It is small and portable, convenient and delicious. It is called fruit candy because it has the flavor of various fruits. You will know it after you try one."
Upon hearing this, several children immediately excitedly picked candies of different colors from the basket and tasted them one by one, with surprise and satisfaction on each of their little faces.
"Sister Ran He, I tasted the flavor of apple!"
"Mine is as sweet as a pear."
"Mine seems to taste like sweet cantaloupe!"
Even the butler beside him couldn't help but exclaim in amazement: "Mine actually tastes like bitter melon, it's amazing!"
"Sister, this candy is so delicious, much more interesting than ordinary white sugar! Sister Ran He, where did you buy it?"
Lin Yu's eyes flashed with keen awareness of business opportunities.
“I didn’t buy it, I made it myself.”
Ran He smiled like a flower, with a hint of pride in his tone.
Lin Yu's eyes lit up when he heard this, and his excitement was beyond words: "Then can we sell it? It will definitely be very popular and we can make a lot of money!"
"Yes, this is a good idea, but it's not the right time yet. Because the number of products we have just made is limited, most of them need to be sent to the palace, and the rest will be given to relatives and friends. If we want to sell them on a large scale, we need to wait for some time."
There was a hint of regret in Ran He's explanation, but more of it was full of expectations for the future.
At this moment, the sugarcane planted in the space is growing vigorously. Although some sugar has been extracted, it will take some time to accumulate enough for sale.
Today, taking advantage of the joy of raising the beam, we are letting the villagers experience it on a small scale, aiming to convey joy and peace and add a touch of excitement to this festive day.
"Sister, don't give away such a precious thing. Wouldn't it be better to keep it and sell it?"
Xiao Lin Yu suggested with a money-grubber look on his face.
Ran He tapped her forehead lightly with a gentle smile: "We don't lack this, and it's great to let everyone share this sweetness."
So, baskets of carefully wrapped fruit candies were put into exquisite bamboo baskets and carefully carried out by several servants and walked out the door.
At this time, a large number of villagers had gathered outside the door, including those from this village and many from neighboring villages who came here because of its reputation.
On this joyful day, liveliness and auspiciousness are the most important. A large population means that this mansion will surely be prosperous in the future.
The two strong men, Yan Wu and Yan Liu, sat firmly on the beam. Two bamboo baskets rose slowly and were hung at the two ends of the beam. They were filled with steamed buns wrapped in lotus leaves, various candies, peanuts, and small items such as copper coins that symbolized auspiciousness.
The villagers had been waiting here for a long time, all their eyes fixed on the pair of tempting bamboo baskets on the beam, their hearts full of anticipation.
"Do you think there will be brown rice cakes in the basket?"
One person asked expectantly.
"Maybe. After all, according to custom, people usually scatter some coarse grain cakes when raising the beam. Families with better conditions will also scatter some copper coins. Brown rice cakes are the most common."
Another person guessed.
Just as everyone was talking, suddenly, a burst of firecrackers cut through the sky, interrupting the previous conversation, and everyone's eyes were fixed on the two people on the beam.
"Young man, throw it here!"
An enthusiastic aunt shouted towards Yan Wu and Yan Liu on the beam, her heart full of joy.
"No, this way, throw it this way!"
The people on the other side were not to be outdone and gave loud reminders.
"Come here!"
However, Yan Wu and Yan Liu seemed to be oblivious to the noise from outside. They just looked down at the villagers fighting below with expressionless faces, but their hands did not move for a long time.
The sound of firecrackers gradually faded away, and the two strong men of the Yan family began to grab handfuls of gifts from the bamboo basket and throw them down. In an instant, the crowd was boiling, the sounds of scrambling rose and fell, and the scene was very lively.
