The carriage drove into the village.

Yu had heard the sound of horses' hooves from afar.

Now they are the only ones in the village who have a carriage, and it is not surprising that they have returned.

"I'm back." Yu patted the back of Chu Lihong's hand.

The carriage kept coming towards here.

Sigh! When the coachman saw the figure at the door, he quickly stopped.

Zhu Han sat next to the coachman, and when he saw Yu and Chu Lihong, he was surprised: "Lihong is back." ”

"Yes! Brother Zhu. Chu Lihong raised a smile and greeted Zhu Han.

Then he looked in the direction of the carriage.

Chu Yuqin opened the curtain and walked out, looking at him angrily: "Since you're back, why don't you come to the city to look for me first?" ”

"I don't want to see my father first! They must have missed me. As for your sister, ......," Chu Lihong pouted. "With so many things to do every day, how can you think about me?"

"Yes! I'm busy making money, how can I think of you stinky boy? Chu Yuqin jumped down. Look at your spring breeze, there is good news? ”

Chu Lihong smiled again: "Guess." ”

"Guess what? Not to mention pulling down. See who can carry whom? ”

Chu Yuqin walked over and followed them into the gate.

"I'm scared of you." Chu Lihong compromised. "Fortunately, I was admitted to Xiucai."

"It didn't disappoint me. Add a chicken leg to you tonight. Chu Yuqin patted him on the shoulder.

"Just a chicken leg?" Chu Lihong was dissatisfied. "Nothing else?"

"Then add a chicken butt?" Chu Yuqin asked tentatively.

"You just bully your brother!" Yu couldn't look at it. "Also, a girl's family, what kind of ass is not ass, you are not ashamed?"

"Shall I say 'chicken belly'?" Chu Yuqin shuddered. "Spare me! I'm not one of the best girls. ”

Zhu Han smiled in the back.

Oh, yes! She is not a lady of everyone, but a young lady from a big family has no knowledge and courage. and that more and more delicate face, it is easy to become the object of hunting by the family. It's just a remote area, and that's all there is to offer your respects every day. If you get to the capital, I don't know how much trouble there will be.

Zhu Han was suddenly a little unsure if it was a wise decision to leave here and go to the capital. She likes a relaxed and happy environment, the capital is a whirlpool, how many people can be relaxed and happy? She is also a civilian woman without any backing. When the time comes, isn't it to let others pinch and flatten?

"Do we have enough ingredients at home to invite the whole village to dinner?" Chu Yuqin came to the kitchen and asked the cook.

The cooks hurriedly counted the food storeroom.

"Miss, vegetables can be harvested in the village, but there is not enough meat." Aunt Qi is the steward in charge of this place and reports the situation to Chu Yuqin.

"I remember that several families in the village had piglets this year. Go and ask which one is willing to sell the pig to us, and we will pay a high price. Chu Yuqin said. I have something to announce tonight, so I'll invite the whole village to dinner. Do what is good and don't skimp on the ingredients. ”

"Yes." Everyone in the kitchen responded.

Chu Yuqin looked at this courtyard where her heart and soul were everywhere.

After leaving here, everything started from scratch. Even if there is an emperor's decree, not everyone will buy it. She had been mentally prepared for it.

Suddenly I was a little reluctant to be here.

"What do you think?" Zhu Han appeared behind her.

"It's a little reluctant." Chu Yuqin pointed to the Portuguese grape shelf opposite. "You see, I haven't eaten grapes this year! I'm still thinking about making a few jars of Portuguese wine. Make some more dried grapes. Now it seems that there is no more mouth. ”

"When we get to the capital, we can buy a big yard and plant everything you like." Zhu Han said: "At the beginning, it may not be as beautiful as here, and there will even be many unsatisfactory. It's just that after a long time, it will become another home. ”

"I understand. In this world, there is never a permanent companion. Even if it is a dead thing, there will be a time when it will be abandoned one day. Chu Yuqin said: "I just sent someone to invite the whole village to come to my house for dinner. The younger brother is in Xiucai, and our family is going to move out of here, both things should be said. ”

When the people in the village heard that Chu Lihong was back, and the Chu family invited the whole village to a banquet, they knew that there was good news.

So everyone brought a thin gift as if they had made an appointment.

Now life in the village has improved a lot, and it is not as stingy as before. However, they knew that no matter how expensive the gift was, it could not be more expensive than the things of the Chu family, so they all picked practical gifts.

"Hong boy, did you pass the test?" The village chief asked with a smile.

Chu Lihong smiled mysteriously: "Guess? ”

"Stinky boy, I thought you were a lot more stable, but now you still seem to be a naughty child." The village chief laughed.

"This boy is only twelve years old! Twelve-year-old Xiucai Gong, how many people are there in the world? Another elder said, "Blessed is our village." ”

"Not really. If there is a talented man in the village, the whole village can reduce or reduce taxes for one year. Your family can be reduced for a lifetime. ”

The villagers gathered to discuss various benefits related to Xiucai. What officials don't have to kneel, reduce taxes, be a bookkeeper and so on.

Chu Lihong listened quietly beside him, echoing two sentences from time to time. He didn't have any shelves at all, which made the atmosphere even more warm.

And what pushed the atmosphere to the top was when the Chu family's meals were laid out. When those big fish and meat came out, everyone was stunned. After all, even if their economic conditions improve, they will not be able to fish and eat every day. Villagers who are accustomed to saving money have changed from not having a meal of meat for a year and a half to eating one meal of meat a month.

When they saw the meat now, their eyes were still glowing golden.

"Everyone, there is enough good food and drink today, as well as good wine! I brewed it myself. Chu Yuqin said to everyone.

"Qin girl, you're too expensive." The village chief said. "However, if you have wine, we will not be polite to you."

"Haha......" everyone laughed.

"Today is a good day for our little brother. Everyone watched him grow up, and they also watched him grow up day by day to become what he is now. Since there is a happy event, of course, it should be celebrated together. So eat and drink well. Chu Yuqin said.

"Well, you're welcome."

"Qin girl's good wine, I've been salivating for a long time. Every time I pass by her house, I smell the smell of wine, and I want to climb the wall to get in. "An old drunkard clings to the jar." After drinking this meal today, my life is worth it. ”

Chu Yuqin arranged for Chu Dashan to share the table with the village chief, and arranged for the Yu family and the Xiao Yu family to sit among the villagers.

Chu Yulan and Chu Bow have made a lot of little sisters. They sat together, talking and laughing, and they were not awkward. And Chu Lihong is fragrant, and many people want to drink with him. However, he dismissed it on the grounds that he was young and that drinking alcohol would easily delay his studies.

"Brother Zhu, Second Brother Zhu, why don't you drink it?" Chu Yuqin saw that the two of them were hiding far away, and stepped forward to ask.

"We're subordinates, so we're not going to join in the fun." Zhu Han said seriously.

Zhu Qian rolled his eyes: "Obviously, I was scared by those girls in the village and didn't dare to go over." He was afraid that if he passed it, he would get into a peach blossom debt. ”
