159 Feasting
Gu Qing thanked Long En for taking the holy decree.
The Nesheren clapped their hands, and some of the dozen or so carriages behind them jumped down and began to move things into the courtyard without stopping.
The things that were rewarded this time were extremely rich, and the oversized boxes were brought in one by one, and there were more than a dozen carriages, so you can imagine how many things there were.
After the things were lifted, more than a dozen servants walked in and knelt down in front of Gu Qing.
"Lord Rongchang, here are four mothers-in-law, four girls, four guards, a total of twelve people, I will stay in Gujia Village to serve the Lord of Rongchang in the future, here is their deed of sale. The remaining 12 people, according to His Majesty's wishes, stayed in the county lord's mansion in the capital and waited for the county lord to pass. The Nesheman presented the deed of sale, turned to him, and said, "You haven't seen the new master yet!" ”
The twelve hurriedly saluted.
Gu Qing looked at the twelve people who were rewarded, whether it was a mother-in-law, a maid or a guard, they were all wearing fine silk, and the texture was even better than what she wore on weekdays, how could she speak......
When listening to the holy decree, Gu Qing was canonized as the county lord, and the villagers were all happy for Gu Qing, but when they heard that Gu Qing was also rewarded with a mansion in the capital, everyone became uneasy again, if Gu Qing left, then what would they do?
All the villagers were like being poured cold water on them.
"So, Gu Niangzi is moving away?"
"Gu Niangzi moved to the capital, the sky is high and the earth is far away, I'm afraid we people won't see each other in this life, right?"
"Gu Niangzi is now the county lord, which county lord have you seen live in the countryside?"
"When people go to high places, Gu Niangzi will naturally move to the capital to live."
"We've already stained Gu Niangzi with a lot of light, is it possible that we still stop people from going to the capital?"
"You can't say that, Gu Niangzi is gone, what should we do with the house in our village? It's all started, our house is gone, Gu Niangzi is going to leave again, what should we do? ”
“……”
One by one, the villagers drooped their heads, still with frustration and sadness in their eyes.
Especially Old Man Gu and Old Lady Gu, as if they had lost their souls, their lips opened for a long time, and they didn't know what to say.
Li Zheng sighed slowly, it is indeed condescending to stay in Gujia Village with Gu Niangzi's talents, and she should go to a broader place to benefit more people.
Li Zheng walked over and arched his hand: "The Neishe people have come from afar, they should be hungry and tired, the village will prepare lunch now, and please don't dislike the Neishe people." ”
The Neishe people carefully looked at Gu Qing on the side from head to toe, showed a light smile, and politely declined Li Zheng's invitation: "No, this official still has official business." ”
When the little palace maid next to her heard this, she immediately stepped forward to wait for the inner house people to get into the carriage, and more than a dozen carriages came and went in a hurry.
Gu Qing waited for them to go away before she came back to her senses, she was the county lord, and she actually mixed up with the county lord in ancient times for some reason.
This mountain is high and the road is far away, and the emperor can actually find her out and make her a county lord, which shows that gold will shine wherever it is!
Gu Qing's shoulders trembled, and she was afraid that others would see her worthless appearance at the moment, so she could only lower her head, bite her lower lip and force the smile on her face.
Unbeknownst to everyone, Mo Li, Dong Rong and even Yu An saw all her expressions in their eyes.
Well, their head of the house is really a strange woman!
Gu Qing was secretly happy enough, and looked up at the people gathered outside the courtyard: "I was canonized as the county lord today, which is a great joy, while everyone is here, all the villagers will stay to drink a glass of wine and be happy." ”
Wedding feast? Mo Li supported his forehead, and he didn't know what he said and thought she was getting married!
The villagers responded one after another.
Without waiting for Gu Qing's instructions, everyone began to get busy, setting up the stove, moving tables and chairs, picking vegetables and washing vegetables......
The twelve had just arrived, and they didn't know what to do.
One of the mothers-in-law took the lead and said, "County master, is there a place where the slaves and maids can help?" ”
Gu Qing pointed to the open-air stove room that had been temporarily erected over there and said: "Today we are going to have a banquet of more than 2,000 people and more than 200 tables, and the stove room is afraid that it will not be busy, so you can go over there first and see what you can do, just do what you can." ”
These people from the capital are all subordinates who serve in the palace, and their skills are different from those in the village, so she said what she would do.
The leading mother-in-law nodded and took the maid to the kitchen, where the guards were left outside the kitchen to chop wood.
Gu Qing's busy feet did not touch the ground.
According to Qing Peige's menu, she bought a lot of dishes in the mall. Just as I was worried about who was in charge, I heard Zhu Han and Yang Pei's voices ringing from outside.
It snowed for more than 20 days in a row, and the two did not go home for more than 20 days.
No one expected that they would bump into this big happy event, and their lady was actually canonized as the county lord, so wouldn't they become the county master?
When Zhu Han came back, the kitchen master was there, and the rest was handed over to Yang Pei. She hid back in the room, but she could stop for a while, and if Zhu Han didn't come back, she would have to divide it into two halves.
"There is not enough firewood, so the men should chop more, the more the better!"
"Who's that, hurry up and help chop the meat, I have to kill the fish."
"The rice has to be steamed now, otherwise it will be too late, and after steaming, put it on the side and rub it a little hot, so that it won't be cold when you eat it."
"There are not enough greens, whoever still has greens in the field, pull them all over, don't be reluctant!"
"This ginger and garlic leaf should also be washed, don't be stunned and help out......"
It's not early, at most there is still an hour to eat, everything has to be prepared from scratch, and the people in the village are also busy with their feet not touching the ground, and they are busy with this and that.
Fortunately, there are enough people, and with Zhu Han, the chef, in charge, a bunch of things are shared among everyone, so it is not so busy, and it can be regarded as orderly in chaos.
Gu Qing stood upstairs and looked at the vegetable garden on the edge of the courtyard, with a wry smile on his face.
There were many people at this banquet, and the chickens and ducks in the backyard were killed until there were only four left, which was still something that Gu Qing secretly bought a lot of chickens and ducks in the mall to keep them.
The pigs in the pigsty were also brought out and one was killed. Don't kill, this heavy snow has closed the mountain for more than 20 days, and no one has meat, just her family, and she takes a lot of it, isn't it suspicious.
As for the greens, all the vegetables in her field were plucked, Chinese cabbage, baby greens, turnips, spinach, none of them were spared.
Half an hour later, the smell of food began to waft out of the courtyard, and slowly, the fragrance became stronger and stronger, enveloping the small courtyard.
It was almost dark at this time, and they would be able to eat dinner after a while, so to speak, most of the people were hungry, and their stomachs had already sung about the empty city plan.
Gu Qing asked Mrs. Gu to beckon everyone to sit down and prepare to start the banquet.
The villagers spontaneously sought a place to sit down.
"It's serving!"
As Aunt Zhao shouted, a rich fragrance hit.
Dozens of women served the food together, and the smell of the food kept drilling into people's noses.
Today is the day Gu Qing was sealed, and Zhu Han made all the most popular dishes in Qing Peige.
As soon as the dish came up, the color and flavor were good, and the villagers saw that their index fingers moved, and their mouths were full of oil.
Dong Rong took the opportunity to poke Yu An with his elbow, "Now that you are the master of the county, do you still want to separate?" ”
