It was getting dark, and Li Mingren had just returned from the front office, and the rain had stopped as soon as he walked to the hall.

"It's raining just right today." Li Mingren couldn't help but complain.

Zhao Yunlan smiled: "Yes, this rain wants to send you home." ”

"Hey, brother, they're here?"

"Yes, Brother Dashan, they are also here, and they went to call you early, and you will only come back now. You go and change your clothes first, and if you don't have anything important, you can have a few more drinks with them tomorrow. ”

Li Mingren walked to the back room and responded: "Well, I just want to do tomorrow's things in advance, so that I can free up time to come out tomorrow morning without worrying about getting up early, and I can rest assured that I can have a few more drinks with them tonight." ”

After changing out of his official uniform, Li Mingren came out wearing a dark blue robe.

Zhao Yunlan raised her head casually and looked at it: "How do you feel that this dress is a little loose." ”

"That's a bit lenient for you."

Zhao Yunlan snorted and couldn't help pinching the flesh on her waist: "You are thin, how can you lose weight so easily?" ”

"Lady, the conscience of heaven and earth, I've been busy lately, where is it easy, I've been busy in the county government recently, and I don't have time to eat the lunch I bring every day."

"Okay, okay, you've been working hard lately." Zhao Yunlan sighed for her flesh again, since Qing'er was weaned, her flesh began to grow slowly, she was too busy every day, her body needed so much energy, and she was fat-prone physique.

That's it, physical health is the most important, and if you consume a lot, you have to eat well, Zhao Yunlan comforted herself in her heart.

"Then let the kitchen start to set the meal, in the afternoon I let the kitchen kill a sheep, roast and eat it too late, only stew and eat, let them taste the difference between the mutton here and the hometown side."

Li Mingren smiled and took Zhao Yunlan's hand: "The lady's arrangement must be delicious, so put the meal in the front hall." ”

"He Wen, go and invite everyone, Mama Cui still needs you to invite Caixia to the front hall."

Zhao Yunlan instructed as she walked out: "Chunxiang, those maids from the house, you let the kitchen set a table for them, and it can be regarded as picking up the wind and washing the dust for them, so that they can all eat and drink well." ”

Chunxiang responded, and went to the kitchen, and He Hua got a signal and told the little girl who was doing chores next to her to clean up the table.

In the front hall, Zhao Yunlan and Li Mingren were already waiting for everyone to sit down.

"Big brother, sister-in-law." The first to come were the three brothers of the Li family.

Li Mingren stepped forward to look at the second child, walked up to the third child and paused, and finally stood in front of Zhizhi and patted his younger brother's shoulder.

"It seems that the food at home is not bad, and it is a lot stronger."

"Hahaha, big brother, if our brothers don't have anything to talk about, we can skip the greeting step, the family doesn't have to see each other like this." Li Mingli was amused by his eldest brother's words, and couldn't help but complain.

The second and fourth children next to them didn't think Li Mingren's words were funny, but they were amused by the third child's complaints.

Li Mingren just felt that there was a little bit of brotherly affection, but it was directly broken by this smile.

"Sister-in-law, you see that the eldest brother gave me a roll of the eyes." Li Mingli looked at the eldest brother in front of him, looked disgusted and helpless, and hurriedly complained to Zhao Yunlan.

"Okay, you are a little more stable as a big brother, Mingli, you don't have to be poor, you are about to get married."

Li Mingren straightened up and returned to his normal expression. Li Mingli also stood aside happily.

"Everyone is here," Zhao Yunlan listened to the footsteps getting closer and closer outside.

"Brother Dashan, Brother Deng, Master Zhang, hurry up and take a seat, brothers and sisters, fathers and fellow villagers, everyone is free."

Originally, everyone was still a little restrained, after all, Akihito Dalang in his hometown was now a parent official, and he was the county magistrate of Shiyang County. But at this time, seeing that the county master in front of him was still as kind as before, and he didn't hold a shelf, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Dashan, as the son of the head of Lijia Village, is also Li Mingren's brother in terms of age, so he was the first to speak: "Mingren, we have to have a drink tonight." ”

"Yes, yes, I have to have a drink with Brother Dashan tonight. Everyone sit down, don't be restrained, they are all brothers and sisters who have helped our family, there are not so many exquisite, everyone must eat and drink well tonight. ”

"Okay." Deng Yong agreed.

Zhao Yunlan looked at everyone with a smile, looked at Li Caixia's position and waved her hand,

"Sister Caixia, come and sit with my sister-in-law, and have a drink with me tonight."

Li Caixia stepped forward and took a few steps, and when she arrived in front of Zhao Yunlan, she was pulled and sat down.

"Don't be polite, drink two glasses of fruit wine with me tonight, it's not intoxicating, let's just have fun."

Li Caixia: "Hey, the owner of the line." ”

There are no separate seats for men and women tonight, one is that it is too wasteful to get a table of women alone, just two people. The second is that Zhao Yunlan also wants to catch up with the big guys and listen to the things in the family.

After three rounds of drinking, Li Dashan talked about the interesting stories that happened along the way, Deng Yong also went on to talk about the current situation of the orchard at home, and Master Zhang also briefly said a few words about the situation of the toy workshop. Li Mingyi added some casually on the side.

"Thank you for your hard work, I would like to give you a drink." Zhao Yunlan raised her glass and said.

Everyone raised their glasses, "Boss, we are all willing to follow you all the way." This time it was Deng Yong who expressed his attitude first, after all, he is really the person who has benefited the most, and now the old mother in the family is in much better health, and his daughter-in-law no longer has to suffer with him, and the child has also gone to the school to study, and the life is stable and the family is happy.

Li Dashan also nodded in agreement.

Zhao Yunlan did it first and said, "You are free, everyone is full tonight." ”

Seeing that the state on the table was getting better, Zhao Yunlan also felt that she was full, looked at Li Caixia next to her, and sandwiched a piece of lamb chops to the plate in front of Li Caixia.

"Try this rib, it doesn't taste like it simmers."

Li Caixia was completely relaxed, with a smile on her face, she quickly swallowed the meat in her mouth and said, "Hehe, sister-in-law, I think your chef's cooking is delicious, and this mutton stew is so fragrant." ”

"Well, cooking is one thing, and the lamb here tastes good. If you like it, I'll prepare more for you. Zhao Yunlan didn't eat anymore, but she kept picking up vegetables for the people next to her, and took care of others from time to time to ensure that everyone was not left behind.

When Li Caixia was almost finished, he took Caixia off the table first, leaving a large group of men to continue drinking.

"Caixia, I'm very grateful for you coming here to help me, if you have any problems during your work here, you can come directly to me for help, don't see me."

Zhao Yunlai took Li Caixia to the backyard, the two of them sat under the stone table drinking tea and chatting, eating too much meat at night, they had to relieve their greasy, and they thought about it for a while to rest, so Zhao Yunlan let Chunxiang make a pot of flower tea.

"Boss, thank you for taking care of me." Li Caixia said.

"Your brother will go back first after a while, you are alone in this northland, the family must be worried, I should take care of you as the owner. Rest early tonight, and wake up at what time you want tomorrow morning, and if you're hungry, someone will bring you food. ”

"Hey, thank you."

Zhao Yunlan couldn't help but smile and patted Li Caixia's shoulder:

"Okay, how many thank you have been said in one night, go and rest."

After getting Zhao Yunlan's signal, Chunxiang called a little maid: "Hongmei, send Miss Caixia back to the room to rest." ”

"Yes."

After Caixia left, Zhao Yunlan got up and went back to the room.

"I have to wash off the smell of wine, let the master sleep in the front hall at night, don't wake me up in the middle of the night."

Haruka: "Yes. ”
