Volume 1 Chapter 59 Attracting People
"Would you like to live in?" Qiao Xi coaxed.
"Yes, sister, when will it be?" Listening to his sister's words, Qiao Bai's eyes lit up, his hands clasped Qiao Xi's arms tightly, and his eyes stared at his sister, with hope in his eyes.
Qiao Xi scratched the tip of his nose lightly, and said with a smile: "It's okay today, if you want to live, go and pack your things." ”
"Wow...... My sister is the best. Sister Fleur, come and help me clean up. I want to live in a new house. Letting go of his sister's arm, Qiao Bai ran out quickly like a cheerful bird, while not forgetting to let Fleur come over to help.
Qiao Xi shook his head with a smile and followed.
There wasn't much to pack, the old ones were so shabby that she didn't plan to take them to the new house. Although there were not many things, it took a lot of time.
Lily and Narcissus were in charge of moving everything in the kitchen to the kitchen of the new house, which was twice the size of the kitchen here, large and spacious, and then to see what needed to be added, and then to buy it in town.
It took an hour and a half for them to finally move everything, and today everyone finally didn't have to sleep in a bed anymore.
In the hall of King Jing's mansion in the capital, there are pieces of bright red and juicy watermelons on the table, and the faint aroma comes to the nose, making people can't help but move their index fingers.
On either side of the table sat a man and a woman, the man was about thirty years old and handsome, and the woman was about twenty years old, gentle and beautiful.
"Butler, have you gone to call the prince?" Princess Jing finally couldn't help it and asked.
"Back to the princess, I have already gone." The butler replied respectfully.
"What's the hurry, that kid doesn't know where Ye went." When King Jing talked about his son, although he was disgusted in his tone, he was still very doting on his face.
He and the princess gave birth to such a son, who should be treated like a jewel, as long as he wants to be satisfied, now he has become a tyrant in the capital, no way, who made his son excellent, Wen Taowu is proficient in everything, and he is deeply loved by the emperor, so like this, as long as it is not a matter that endangers the society of the country, the emperor also turns a blind eye and goes with him, so that the officials below sigh.
As I grew older, I am now twelve years old, much more mature and stable, but the only bad thing is that it is delicious, and I am very picky about eating, the chef in the house does not know how many batches I have changed, and I am still picked out of the body, which also makes them a headache for the husband and wife.
No, when the people below presented the watermelon, they were dumbfounded, this is not a tribute from Luo Suo, when will our people be able to grow it themselves.
I still remember that when Luo Suo Guo offered this watermelon, after cutting it, the emperor rewarded the ministers on the field, so that they could taste it one by one whether it was as delicious as they Luo Saguo said.
I don't know if I don't eat it, it's really unstoppable to eat it, and it's also that time, it was his son who participated in the palace banquet and ate the most happy time, and then there were watermelons every year, and the emperor didn't forget to send a copy to Jingwangfu, but there were not many watermelons in this tribute, and they could only get one or two a year.
"Father, mother, what are you looking for your children?" Jun Lichen walked in with the posture of a beautiful son, with a faint smile on his face.
"Chen'er is here, come and see what this is?" Princess Jing got up with a smile, walked to her son's side, and pulled him towards the table.
Jun Lichen's eyes lit up when he saw the watermelon on the table, "Mother, how can there be a watermelon at this time?" Where did this come from? "There are not many people who know about delicious food, except for the people of Jingwangfu and the emperor, basically no one knows that he has this hobby, and he can always pretend to be cold in front of people, only in front of people close to him, he will let go of his coldness and restore his true face.
"The shopkeeper of Juxian Building in Linshui Town, Fuyang County, sent it." That's right, the entire Daqian's Juxian Building is an industry that belongs to the Jingwang Mansion, and the formation of the Juxian Building was to satisfy the appetite of his son, who knew that this development would become a national one.
"Oh, what a place." After Jun Lichen finished saying this, he sat down directly on the seat, and ate it with a snort, anyway, now there is only his father and mother in the hall, and it doesn't matter if this image is not maintained. Well, it's delicious, it's even sweeter than the tribute paid by Luo Suo, "Father, mother, you can also taste it, it's delicious." ”
Princess Jing smiled very happily, she was happy that her son could eat so happily, as for her son's words, she didn't hear it, if her son liked it, let her son eat more, it didn't matter if the two of them ate or not, "Chen'er, you eat, my father and mother don't eat." ”
"Princess, you don't eat it yourself, you can't let me not eat it." King Jing protested. He also wanted to eat it, but Chad had to eat it by his son.
"What? Do you still want to grab something to eat with your son? Princess Jing's eyes widened, and she looked at Prince Jing with a fierce look.
"No~~No~~" When Prince Jing saw the princess like that, the whole person suddenly became weak, the son of this family is the first, he will always be the second, how can he be so pitiful. Fortunately, only one was born, and if there was another one, his status would be directly out of the sky, and no one would take him to heart.
"You know each other." Princess Jing retracted her gaze and looked at her happy son: "Chen'er, eat more if it's delicious." ”
"Uh-huh, thank you, Mother." Glancing at his aggrieved father, Jun Lichen continued to eat in a big gulp. "Mother, you just said that this was sent from Linshui Town, Fuyang County?" This watermelon is so delicious, I thought of what my mother had just mentioned, so I asked to be sure.
"yes, that's what the people down there said."
"Who received this watermelon?"
"It seems to be the big housekeeper, and the specific mother is not very clear." How could she bother with such a trivial matter.
"Someone."
Soon a maid appeared in the hall, "Lord Shizi, what are your orders?" ”
"Go and pass on the big butler."
"Yes." The maid received the order, and quickly went out to summon the chief butler.
The maid, who had just gone out not long ago, walked in with the big housekeeper behind her, and the family of three sat up straight in an instant, and they couldn't see the image just now, "Lord Shizi, the big housekeeper brought it." ”
"This watermelon was sent by Juxian Building in Linshui Town?" Jun Lichen sat there majestically, not squinting.
"If you go back to the world, it is exactly that it was planted by a little girl." Steward Fu replied respectfully.
"Little girl?" Jun Lichen thought that he had heard something, and asked again uncertainly.
"Yes, it's a little girl, she also grows vegetables in the winter, and it sounds like she has other good things there." Steward Fu said affirmatively.
Interesting, so interesting, he wanted to see it, "Mother, you can help me appreciate the housekeeper, cool breeze, pack up your luggage, let's go to Linshui Town." In an instant, Jun Lichen had already arranged everything, and walked out of the hall quickly, leaving the prince and the princess in vain.
"Stinky boy." King Jing scolded directly, but unfortunately the person who was scolded had already run away.
"My son, why did you just leave?" The princess is also angry, her son is only twelve years old, is it really good to go out like this?
Qiao Xi didn't know what kind of trouble she had caused because of the kindness of the shopkeeper Yang, that is, a wolf, a very possessive wolf.
Now she is busy preparing for the housewarming banquet.
She specially took the gift and went to Qiao Lin's house, asked Mrs. Qiao to calculate an auspicious day of the zodiac, and then asked Qiao Yun and Qiao Zhen's daughter-in-law to go to her house early that day to help make the banquet.
Leaving Qiao Lin's house, Qiao Xi almost informed all the people in Qiaojia Village, whether she came or not, she did her duty, and they had nothing to find fault with in the future, if they didn't have it that day, it was their own business, and it had nothing to do with her.
However, with her understanding of the people in the village, there is basically no one who does not come, there is free food to eat, and she will rush to go when she puts down her face.
The auspicious day of the housewarming banquet happened to be the day when her eldest brother was resting, and she originally thought that if it was staggered, she would also let her eldest brother come back on leave, no matter what, this was also the first happy event of their Qiao family since their father and mother went, of course, the family had to be together. But fortunately, God also helps, so I don't need my eldest brother to ask for leave.
On the day of the housewarming banquet, a few aunts who came to help arrived at dawn.
"Xi girl, we are here, what do we need to do, you say, we will do it." Chen Xiuzhu and Concubine Jian walked into Qiao's house and muttered that they were going to work.
"The two aunts will sit down for a while, don't be in a hurry." Qiao Xi likes the temperament of the two of them, they are both straightforward, what to say, no wonder the two can get along well.
"Don't sit down, you say, do something first, or we can wash the dishes first, and it's convenient when we can do it." They are here to work, there are a lot of people in Qiaojia Village, and they will definitely be very busy at noon today.
"Okay, Narcissus, you take the two aunts to the kitchen and wash the noon dishes that should be washed and cut." Qiao Xi saw that the two of them were very persistent, so he ordered Narcissus to take them down first.
"Yes, girl." Put down the dishes and chopsticks in his hand, wiped the corners of his mouth, led the two aunts to the kitchen, and told them the dishes they used at noon today, and asked them to wash out and cut out the dishes first.
At today's housewarming banquet, Qiao Xi prepared eight dishes and one soup, four meat and four vegetables, and he was full.
Qiao Xi quickly solved the breakfast and handed over the matter of entertaining the guests to her eldest brother and younger brother, while she took Furong and a few of them to work in the kitchen, no way, there are many people, and there are many things to prepare, just washing vegetables, cutting vegetables It takes a long time.
