The town is becoming more and more lively day by day, in the month of Layue, people come to the market every day, sell their own woven cloth, sell mountain goods, the meat stalls in Wujia Village are supported every day, the noodle restaurant Ruan boss also sent a guy in the town, and Miss Ruan comes every other day to take care of the business.

Dong Xiaoying paid for ten sheep, three big fat pigs, and thirty chickens, and prepared to open meat for everyone during the New Year.

The patriarch's grandson, Changjin, with Changli, Changzhong, Changkuan, and Changle made fishing nets, and chiseled ice every day to catch fish.

Since the eldest brother Changfu and the second brother have learned to marry, Changle has taken a fancy to the spring red of Erdaogou and said that he will come to the door in February next year to propose marriage.

Fang Mingyuan is busy! Greet the villagers who come to deliver the vegetables to the village to find the patriarch, and are busy packing the vegetables that are given out.

Don't look at the patriarch's smile, there is no ambiguity at all when collecting vegetables, open the vegetables bundled by the villagers, there are rotten vegetable leaves, and the yellowed vegetables must be picked out.

"Don't think it's the same as taking advantage of you, why don't you think about it, let's clean it up, take out the green branches and green leaves, it's not bad or rotten, people can still order our dishes next year!" Your family mixed a few rotten vegetable leaves, not one or two, and it was the face of our whole town that was lost.

You have a face? In the future, people will say that the people in our Fenggu Town are not real, and your village will also be counted in our town! Don't lose a lot because of a small one, one or two vegetable leaves can't be exchanged for a penny, but they can be exchanged for a good reputation. ”

After the patriarch finished speaking, the third uncle followed and said, "The bundle made by the daughter-in-law in our village, you see, don't talk about rotten vegetable leaves, I can't wait to help others wash them, choose them, and take them back to the pot directly." ”

The fourth uncle couldn't help but nod, "Yes, if you are not afraid of washing it out, people can't finish one meal, let's wash it well, what can we do?" ”

Fang Linghe looked at it and said, such a person, it is considered benevolent and righteous to be higher, and he can't be too high, not enough to worry about him.

The three brothers of Fang Mingshan next to him helped to rebundle the vegetables, wrapped them in quilts and sent them to the shed, and hurriedly loaded them for delivery.

It's going to be the New Year, and the villages have organized to give New Year's gifts, live chickens, pork, and a lot of them, and the patriarch's return gifts are also live chickens, pork, plus our soap, soap, and mushroom cakes.

"Take it, let's make it ourselves, take it back and let the children in the village wash it, have a good year, we bake the pastries ourselves, and give it to the elderly and children to eat, not much, take it back and each family can't share a few."

Then Mrs. Hu came to give the New Year's gift, and the patriarch gave away two fat sheep bought by Dong Xiaoying, plus our cake and soap, and it seemed that the return gift was okay.

Dazhongzi also came to give gifts one after another, in addition to the village, there were also New Year's gifts for his father-in-law's family.

What people didn't expect was that the restaurants and teahouses in the counties also came to give New Year's gifts, and the patriarch came to the baking room urgently, what to do, I didn't prepare!

The Zhang family was busy weighing the mushroom cakes, and the Hui patriarch said, "Uncle Patriarch, you see how busy we are, the counties have ordered a lot of cakes, all of which are used for New Year's gifts, and if you send them out, don't do our business." ”

"The fourth daughter-in-law?" From the patriarch's point of view, it is still necessary to find Dong Xiaoying to talk to these girls.

"Uncle Patriarch, didn't I say it just now, there are a lot of orders in various counties, and my younger brothers and sisters are busy in the small oven!" Zhang signaled that there was enough cake in the basket, and turned to count the cake blanks.

The patriarch turned around and left, knocked on the door of the small baking room, and as soon as he told the matter, Dong Xiaoying smiled and said, "I'm not prepared!" It's okay, I just have something in the hands of my sister-in-law, which was originally prepared for the princess's mansion, and the patriarch will use it first. ”

The patriarch found Mantang's sister-in-law and learned that the New Year's gift received in the past two days was not lightly troubled by Dong Xiaoying, and dozens of chickens were all made for her to mature.

The patriarch asked people to hold a small jar the size of a fist, and when he entered the conference room, he smiled and said, "Everyone, I'm sorry, isn't this the government going to be sealed!" The main thing is to go to the government office, and he will come back in the next morning.

We don't have anything else good, this is a home-made condiment, very fresh, and used in restaurants. I asked, and when the stir-fry stew comes out of the pot, put a spoonful in it. ”

In the small jar is the chicken essence powder made by Dong Xiaoying, and the sister-in-law always tells her that if there is that kind of broth for the noodle restaurant at home, she will cook better. It just so happened that the Chinese New Year received a lot of New Year's gifts, and there were a lot of live chickens, so use the method of video learning and try it.

A chicken is steamed, broken with a blender, add green onions, garlic, shallots, sugar, a spoonful of honey, salt, a raw egg and mix well, then put it in the oven to bake, take it out after drying, and beat it into powder with a blender.

In a small jar is chicken essence made from a chicken. My sister-in-law tried it, and when I put a little bit of the stir-fry out of the pot, the dish tasted much more delicious.

The patriarch is still distressed to send it out! It's better to send a dozen chickens decently.

At the end of the morning, Fang Mingyuan came back from the mansion, ignored no one, and locked himself in the house when he went home.

Dong Xiaoying went in and asked, but she didn't expect to cause him a lot of complaints.

"Lao Tzu wondered what he was calling for a meeting! It's just a bunch of officials sitting together drinking tea, chatting, and spanking! There's nothing serious about it, and I'm still eating our cream cake, I'm phew! A bunch of things that don't do their job! ”

Why is it in the way of people drinking tea? What are you scolding people for?

"He also went around the bend to give me a lesson, saying that I went through the back door, saying that I came up by connections! Bah! Lao Tzu is going through the back door, just relying on relationships! ”

The co-author was ridiculed!

"Going around the bend and saying that I, competing with the people for profit, doing official business, was originally a scholar, but I took farmers to do business, which means that I didn't do my job? I just want to ask, what are they doing? ”

The co-author was still excluded!

"Lao Tzu doesn't rely on relationships or not, he is also the master of the eight products, why doesn't he let Lao Tzu sit outside the curtain for a meeting? Let me be the doorway, if there is no wall to stop me, I will go out! ”

All right! Even the seat is at the end, which is quite miserable!

Dong Xiaoying thought about it and said, "Otherwise, we won't be officials!" You are an official, you are busy talking every day, it is better to just take care of our own family, how many things are going on in the village, today the restaurants and teahouses in various counties are here, you are not there, and the patriarch doesn't know what to say. ”

The patriarch stood in the courtyard and nodded his head in listening, why do you care about so many people's affairs? We haven't figured out our own days yet! What kind of official! We still have a mess of things to take care of in our village!

Fang Mingyuan patted the kang table and shouted, "Lao Tzu just wants to do a good job, show them a look, how to be an official, what to do is really a good official for the people!" ”

The patriarch nodded again, yes, our family Mingyuan is a good official! But good people are not rewarded! Look at it, let people bully!

"Bearman, too bearman!" The patriarch stomped his feet and said to the third uncle on the side.

The fourth uncle sighed and said, "The official is small, and he came up by relationship, we have no friends in the officialdom, no one to help, Mingyuan is difficult!" ”

Chang'an looked at Cai Shusheng and asked in a low voice, "Does Mr. think my father is a good official?" ”

Cai Shusheng affirmed, "There is no better official than Lord Fang, I have never seen an official who personally goes to the village to care about the people, not to mention, to help the people live a good life." ”

Cai Shusheng has a brother, in order to provide him with education, the family really tightened his belt to live, this year with the kang head to grow vegetables, the New Year can finally have the money to tear a new dress for the old lady, for the nephew and niece to make a new cotton clothes.

Dong Xiaoying was still in the house and persuaded, "Why bother! Who are we angry with? Tired haha, who said you were okay? Forget it, being an official is uncomfortable, and it is idle for nothing, so it is better for us to develop our own family. We haven't been officials before, so we don't understand anything, and it's great if you can explain things in the village. ”

"If I don't win, I want people to see it, I'm not incompetent, I want to run the town prosperously, compare those who are officials, and let the court and the people know what it is like to be an official!" Fang Mingyuan gritted his teeth and set himself a set.

"Zhong, you should be an official! Our family won't hold you back. Dong Xiaoying hugged her husband and patted him on the back, this person was tough.
