Of course, every time they go to the banquet, those smart guests are more or less handy with some expensive gifts. Of course, gifts can't be too valuable, because Chen Sheng will return everything that is valuable. Therefore, in choosing gifts that meet the requirements of the county guard, many dignitaries and nobles have a little brains.

Every banquet in the county guard mansion will introduce some novel food, whether it is a dish or a dim sum, which is not tried by the turtles in Fujian, which is endlessly memorable. Often within a few days, such dishes or dim sum appear in shops in the name of the Ling family in Fujian. Triggering a wave of consumption frenzy. It has also caused a lot of competition. But mainstream customers know that if they want to eat the most authentic food, they can only eat it in the Ling family's shop, which is not a matter of price, but a matter of identity. Therefore, after every banquet, early the next morning, the stewards of the major mansions would appear in front of the Ling family's shops early to ask: whether the dishes and dim sum that appeared at the banquet of the county guard mansion last night had been launched here, so Chen Sheng's wealth was rolling.

There are one or two banquets in the county hall almost every month, so the guests are familiar with the road. They were not tired of Chen Sheng's frequent banquets. In this part of Minzhong County, Chen Sheng is an absolute authority, and the dignitaries and nobles of Dongye City, who are not looking forward to getting acquainted with Chen Sheng, are proud to have frequent contact with Chen Sheng. There are some well-intentioned people who pay attention to Chen Sheng's list of banquets every time, and figure out Chen Sheng's intentions and future governance direction from these lists. There are even some businessmen from other places who have sharpened their heads, trying to get an invitation through the channel but can't get it. It should be clear that the merchants who have entered the county guard mansion for a banquet and those who have not entered the county guard mansion are a little different in terms of momentum.

It's not the same as the heat during the day. As long as it is night, Dongye City becomes extraordinarily cool. Under the blowing of the sea breeze, the heat of the day will disappear invisibly.

However, when the dinner was underway, Chen Sheng's face was a little uncomfortable. Ling Suyun beside her was an expert in observing words and feelings, and she saw the inappropriateness between Chen Sheng's eyebrows at a glance, and asked, "Chen Sheng, what's wrong?" ”

Chen Sheng shook his head, as if answering Ling Suyun's words, and as if muttering to himself, he said, "This wind is a bit strong!" The banquet was set up in the back garden, and as soon as I looked up, I saw the full moon shining in the sky. Seeing the moon above his head, Chen Sheng's heart calmed down a little, and then he was stunned and asked, "When is today?" ”

Ling Suyun glanced at him and said, "Today is August 14th, and tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival." "If it weren't for the fact that Chen Sheng was alone in Fujian to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival, Ling Suyun would not have come to Fujian so quickly. It's a pity that Chen Sheng himself is

Chen Sheng came to his senses at this time, slapped his head suddenly, and said, "Ouch, I've been so busy these days, why did I forget this!" "In this era, the Mid-Autumn Festival is also called the Mid-Autumn Festival. There is no holiday during the festival, and there is no food such as moon cakes, and the festival has not yet been fully popularized, only the emperor will set up a moon altar to worship the moon on the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, and reward the meritorious nobles to eat. The custom of admiring the moon was only popular among the upper class nobles and literati. In such a barbaric place in central Fujian, only a few high-ranking officials and nobles have this kind of vassal and elegant hobby, and the people have not yet popularized it. In the past few days, Chen Sheng has not felt the atmosphere of the festival at all, and with the busy government affairs in his hands, Chen Sheng has forgotten the existence of such a festival for a while. Thinking of this, Chen Sheng hurriedly beckoned the deacon and whispered a few words. In order to cope with this festival, he still prepared some things for the festival and joined in the fun.

The two chatted for a few words, and Chen Sheng and Ling Suyun walked side by side to the crowd and greeted the guests who had been wandering around them for a while, but did not dare to approach to talk to them. The guests are all acquaintances, and they know that the county guard and the eldest lady of the Ling family have a deep relationship, and it is best not to go over when the young couple are flirting. However, I finally had the opportunity to go to the county guard's mansion, but I couldn't say a few words to the county guard, leaving an impression, and I couldn't say anything, so I stayed around the two of them and refused to leave for a long time.

Chen Sheng naturally knows this. The guests who could be invited by him were all influential figures in Dongye City and even the entire Minzhong County. The progress of Chen Sheng's administration also depends on the support of all forces. Naturally, he didn't dare to snub others, showed a smile, and approached to say a few polite words. For a while, everywhere the two of them went, flattery was endless, and Chen Sheng also said a few words modestly and introduced Ling Suyun to everyone. The status of the Ling family in Minzhong County is transcendent, and the eldest lady of the Ling family is even more famous. However, after seeing it, the guests felt that it was better to be famous than to meet, Miss Ling was not only shrewd and capable, but also had an enviable face, and her words were decent and generous, giving everyone a good impression.

"Miss Ling......" a voice with great joy came from it. Chen Sheng and Ling Suyun looked back and saw Wu Shaohai approaching with a smile on his face. And next to Wu Shaohai, there was a person who Chen Sheng hated very much, and this person was Li Shen, the county lieutenant of Minzhong County. Wu Shaohai walked in front of the two, greeted Chen Sheng with a smile, and then said to Ling Suyun: "I didn't expect Miss Ling to be in Minzhong County, I went to Ba County half a year ago, and I wanted to see Miss Ling, but unfortunately Miss Ling went out to Surabaya a few days ago, and the mistake made Wu feel melancholy for a long time. ”

Seeing that it was Wu Shaohai, Ling Suyun's brows frowned slightly, and a trace of imperceptible boredom suddenly appeared on her face.

Hearing this, Chen Sheng's face sank suddenly. This kid's tone sounds like digging into the wall! Without waiting for Ling Suyun to speak, Chen Sheng said without yin or yang: "Wu Gongzi is also here, you and Su Yun are acquainted?" ”

Wu Shaohai smiled slightly and said, "I have met Miss Ling a few times. Miss's appearance shocked Shaohai, and he didn't think about tea and dinner for a while, and when he returned to Longxi, I made a wish to my father that if I married a wife in this life, Miss Ling would not marry. ”

Chen Sheng's face calmed down, he smiled and took Ling Suyun's little hand, chuckled at Wu Shaohai and said, "That's not a coincidence, Wu Gongzi, Su Yun and I already have a marriage contract, if your wish is true, you will have to be lonely in this life." ”

Ling Suyun also smiled faintly, snuggled up to Chen Sheng's side very cooperatively, and said: "Young Master Wu is in love with Su Yun, and Su Yun likes it very much. However, Su Yun's heart belongs, and the affection of Master Wu is still left to the women of the world. ”
