Chapter 51: The Family Feast

Zhang Ling stayed at Li Xiaobao's house for a while and then went back, and when he left, he told Li Xiaobao not to forget to go to her house for dinner.

Originally, Zhang Ling wanted to ask Li Detian to go with him, but Li Detian knew that Zhang Shan was looking for Li Xiaobao because of Tianma, and he couldn't help when he went, so he refused.

"Hey, Xiaobao, tell your sister-in-law how far you and Zhang Ling have been, sister-in-law thinks she looks at you differently!" Zhou Cuihua looked at Li Xiaobao with a smile and asked.

"That's right, Xiaobao, you see that Zhang Ling's attitude towards you has changed a lot recently, when are you going to do the two of you!" Luo Guiying was also impatient.

"Oh, Mom, I will definitely let you hug your grandson!" Of course, Li Xiaobao understood what Luo Guiying meant, but now the agreement between himself and Zhang Ling has not been completed.

"You bear child, where are you going?" Luo Guiying looked at the sky and saw that it was still early, and it was not enough to go to Zhang Ling's house for dinner.

"Go to the field and see when the gastrodia can be sold!" Li Xiaobao's words made Luo Guiying almost jump out of bed, this gastrodia that was just planted yesterday, Li Xiaobao began to think about selling it?

While speaking, Li Xiaobao had already left the yard and came to the ground, and when he saw it, he was a little surprised, Zhao Laosan was squatting in their house and studying the seedlings of gastrodia.

Li Xiaobao was a little surprised when he looked at Zhao Laosan's fascination, but he also secretly admired that Zhao Laosan's title of expert in the three fields was not for nothing, now that the weather is hot, everyone has gone back, and he is studying on the ground alone.

"Uncle Zhao, what are you doing?" Li Xiaobao came behind Zhao Laosan and saw that he still had no reaction, so he said twice.

"Huh?" Zhao Laosan was so frightened that he almost fell to the ground when he heard Li Xiaobao's words behind him, hurriedly stood up and patted the dust on his body and said, "No! It's nothing! I'm tired and rest here!"

Li Xiaobao listened to Zhao Laosan's words and smiled, you are tired, you are resting on the ground of your house, why are you resting on the ground of my house? But obviously you can't say it.

Zhao Laosan looked at the smile on Li Xiaobao's face, his old face turned red and became even more embarrassed, and said, "It's okay, I'll go first!"

"Wait!" Li Xiaobao saw that Zhao Laosan was about to leave with a hoe, hurriedly stopped him, and said, "Uncle Zhao, if you really want to grow gastrodia, I can teach you!"

"Really?" Zhao Laosan was a little excited when he heard Li Xiaobao's words, but after thinking about it, he pulled down his face and said, "You better plant your gastrodia first!"

Zhao Laosan said and walked towards the village with a hoe on his shoulder.

"Hey!" Li Xiaobao looked at Zhao Laosan's back and smiled, he knew that Zhao Laosan was already tempted, but it was just because he couldn't pull his face down because he had some festivals with him before.

Li Xiaobao walked around the field, and when he saw that the sky was almost dark, he walked towards Zhang Ling's house.

"Why did you just come?" Zhang Ling watched Li Xiaobao enter the courtyard and was a little unhappy.

At this time, the weather was hot and he couldn't sit still in the house, Zhang Shan had already moved the table to a few small dishes on the yard, as well as a bottle of wine, and was talking to Zhang Laicai, the village accountant.

"Uncle Zhang Shan!" Li Xiaobao looked at Zhang Shan and smiled, then walked to Zhang Ling's side, and said quietly: "I went around the ground just now, guess who I saw?"

"Who?"

"Zhao Laosan!"

Li Xiaobao told Zhang Ling about the previous incident as he spoke, making her giggle.

"Okay, look at the two of you!" At this time, Wang Fen brought out a plate of salted eggs from the house, the yolks were golden yellow and still dripping with oil.

"Come, Xiaobao, give you a taste of my aunt's pickled eggs first!" Wang Fen said and picked a piece from the plate and gave it to Li Xiaobao.

"Wait a minute, Aunt Zhang, let's eat together!" Li Xiaobao knew that this was a salted egg marinated in the chicken that Wang Fen fed herself.

"What are you waiting for, your father won't come to just the three of you, this is specially left for you by your aunt!"

Since Li Xiaobao helped Zhang Shan harvest the rice early, Wang Fen has become more and more fond of this future son-in-law, and in the past few days, Wang Fen has been busy knowing that Li Xiaobao has helped, and she is even more happy.

"Isn't it delicious?" Wang Fen asked as she looked at Li Xiaobao.

"Well, it's delicious, auntie, it's delicious!" Li Xiaobao said with a smile.

"It's delicious, you can eat more in a while, and I'll pick up a few for you when I leave!" Wang Fen listened to Li Xiaobao's words, and her face suddenly bloomed with joy.

"Oh, Mom, pick up something, two-step kung fu, he can come over if he wants to eat!" Zhang Ling said.

"Hey, yes, Xiaobao, it's okay to come and sit at home, my aunt will make you something to eat!" Wang Fen said and went into the kitchen again.

"Come, Xiaobao, fill up the wine!" Li Xiaobao was called over by Zhang Shan as soon as he finished washing his hands, and Zhang Ling went to the kitchen to work with Wang Fen.

"Okay!" Li Xiaobao was also unceremonious, and poured the big porcelain bowl in front of him directly.

"Okay! Let's do one first!" Zhang Shan said, raised the big porcelain bowl and smacked it with Li Xiaobao, and drank it all.

Li Xiaobao saw that he had no choice but to dry the wine in his bowl, and Zhang Laicai was left with a bitter face and no way to dry the wine in the bowl several times.

After taking a sip of wine, Zhang Shan's face became deep and asked, "Xiaobao, have you really met Vice Mayor Wan?"

“****...... What year has this happened?" Li Xiaobao almost fell headlong when he heard Zhang Shan's words, and said, "Uncle Zhang Shan, why don't you believe it?"

"Then what do you say about Vice Mayor Wan?" Zhang Shan said with some disbelief.

"That's it, why don't I give you a call and you can talk to him?" Li Xiaobao was made out of temper by Zhang Shan.

"This ...... Forget it!" Zhang Shan suddenly felt a little weak when he heard this, after all, the gap between the village chief and the mayor is still a bit big.

"Hey, village chief, I said you don't have to worry about this problem, let's talk about the matter of Tianma!" Zhang Laicai sat next to him for an afternoon and didn't hear Zhang Shan say about Tianma, and he suddenly became a little anxious.

"Gastrodia, oh, yes!" Zhang Shan reacted after listening to Zhang Laicai's words, and said, "Xiaobao, how much can we harvest in the gastrodia in our field this time?"

In fact, Zhang Shan was not embarrassed to ask how much gastrodia could be sold for this time. At this time, Wang Fen and Zhang Ling also stood at the door, looking at Li Xiaobao nervously.

Li Xiaobao listened to Zhang Shan's words and took a sip of wine and said: "Uncle, now the price of gastrodia is generally about 100 yuan, the quality of gastrodia in our field should be a little better, the yield per mu should be 200 catties, your family of three is 3 acres of land 600 catties, 600 catties multiplied by 100, the most conservative estimate should be 60,000 yuan!"

"What?" Without waiting for Zhang Shan to speak, Zhang Laicai next to him was excited and didn't sit down, and fell directly backwards and sat on the ground.
