Chapter 190 What a lot of work!
Li Laosan looked at the children at Li Heng's table, thought for a moment, and said:
"Dachun, Huizi, the children are right, they have to have backbone. My family agrees to return the family land."
"My family also agrees." Li Qingshan's father also nodded.
"And I..."
"I……"
"..."
The Li clan members who came over to eat immediately nodded.
Li Qingchun's eyes were swollen and he almost burst into tears.
"Thank you, thank you for your support. I believe that after this incident, our clan will... be able to stand up again."
"Don't worry, Patriarch, we are as proud as Tiedan."
"Yes, don't worry, Uncle Da Chun."
"..."
As the children expressed their opinions one by one, the heavy atmosphere caused by the yamen errands just now was completely eliminated, and everyone continued to eat and drink, changing cups and cups, and it was even more lively than at the beginning.
At the end of the day, the banquet was dispersed.
Most of them were pretty good and didn't lose their composure. Only Li Laosan was too much. He held Li Hui's hand, shook his head, said "I'm sorry", and cried like a mess.
Maybe at his age, he was used to self-examination and self-reflection. Li Hui didn't say anything and just let him hold him and cry. In the end, his son coaxed him back.
Li Hui reminded Li Qingchun that the harvesting of the clan's farmland should be postponed and the news should be released first, and then implemented after the autumn harvest. It will definitely not be harvested this year. After all, everyone has worked hard to cultivate the land, so he only needs to collect the clan's grain at once.
Li Qingchun understood what he meant, nodded, said "Don't worry", and left without looking back.
The people eating at the banquet left one after another, and the busy people began to work.
Yu Niang put the remaining elbow bones away in a basin and kept them for Hu Zi to eat. The rest was left to Fang and Geng to fold and deal with later. Afraid of not having enough food, they set up thirty-eight tables with twenty-four dishes.
All the dishes contain meat.
When Cheng Xue saw that only two large pots of vegetables were folded out, the corners of her mouth twitched, secretly admiring them.
It’s really a lot of work!
Ms. Liu was helped out of the house by her daughter and said:
"Xue Niang, let's go back first and take the children home to stay for a few more days after the autumn harvest."
"I know, aunt, please go slower on the road and be more careful when driving in winter."
"Yes, ma'am."
Things have been loaded on the oxcart, including meat, eggs, and grapes. Grapes are rare in Liaodong, so Xiao Qinglin brought a lot today and packed some specially for them.
Ms. Liu looked at the things in the car, patted the back of Cheng Xue's hand, and left without saying a word. She took five taels of silver with her and took away a lot of things in return, so she was completely repaid.
Watching Tiandong drive away, Cheng Xue called Yu Niang and whispered not to leave any dishes behind. After they were all divided, she went into the house to tidy up things.
There is still a long time in the evening, and I can’t finish the food even if I leave some food, so I might as well give it to the busy female family members to look decent.
After a short rest, Cheng Xue took Yu Niang and others to wear strings. Li Hui burned some charcoal while Xiao Qinglin continued to learn the skills.
He will return to Beijing in October next year to participate in the audition in May of the following year. A skewer shop in Beijing is already in the plan, and he just shared the share with Cheng Xue perfecting the shop.
If she hadn't insisted on 28, he would have thought of 37. After all, someone else came up with the idea and researched the dipping sauce.
At the end of Shenshi, the forest farm finished work on time. Dong Cheng and his party came to Li Hui's house. They looked at the grand door and nodded.
Hot water has been prepared in the yard. After everyone washed, Cheng Xue greeted them into the house.
Three cold and three hot dishes were placed on the Kang table in the east room to accompany the wine.
"Brothers and sisters, you can eat meat skewers and cook whatever you want." Dong Cheng couldn't help but shake his head, feeling a little lucky.
Cheng Xuetian smiled lightly and shook his head, saying:
"They are all snacks that can be eaten with wine. They are easy to make. Is there a holiday for the autumn harvest this year?"
"Yes, yes, I'll put it away the day after tomorrow. I'll have a few people finish it tomorrow. I can put it away for twenty days this time." Guo Dake replied.
"Hey, let's put a lot of it in."
In the past, spring plowing and autumn harvest took ten days.
Just as he was talking, Xiao Qinglin opened the door, and Li Hui entered the room holding a large number of "sizzling..." meat skewers.
When everyone saw Xiao Qinglin, they all called "Chief Steward".
"There is no 'chief steward' today. When you come to my brother's house to celebrate, you are just guests. You should eat and drink as you should."
"Yeah, you're welcome. Hurry up and sit down and eat while it's hot. You guys didn't get to the table in time, but we're going to make something affordable." Li Hui said as he put the meat skewers on a wooden plate and greeted everyone.
There are hot bamboo leaves on the table. As the host, I pour the wine one by one to liven up the atmosphere.
Cheng Xue saw that the Juren master could hold the whole audience, so she went out to grill the skewers with confidence. Seeing that Tiandong was very interested in it, she explained it to him while grilling the meat.
This is a job where practice makes perfect, brushing oil, turning over, spreading ingredients...
Tiandong is also a very discerning child. As long as she needs something, she will give it to her in the next second. Yu Niang came out of the house. The mutton skewers were just cooked, and she put a large number of skewers on the plate.
She carried it into the house.
Five times in a row, Yu Niang came out not as fast as before.
When she came out again, she curtsied and said:
"Madam, the master said he wanted to bake something vegetarian, and Mr. Dong said he wanted to eat grilled eggplant."
"Okay, I understand." He said, handing her the warm pig plum blossoms on the side, "Master, how is the food there, Miss?"
"Everything is good. The young master and the young lady are both full. I took the remaining meat skewers to the master."
"Okay, then remind them to wash up and go to bed later, so don't stay up too late."
"Yu Niang understands."
Since someone was working the next day, the "front line" for this meal was not long.
After sending the person away, Xiao Qinglin went directly to Li Heng's room to sleep. He didn't have the slightest air of dignity here as the eldest son of the Xiao family, and for some reason, he thought he was the brother-in-law of the family.
After Yu Niang finished the sobering soup, she left with her son. Cheng Xue hung up the courtyard door and nodded slowly when she saw that the courtyard was neatly tidied up. This family's purchases were very worry-free.
Rules need to be established.
Because they themselves are very disciplined.
The weather has been terrible and has been sunny for several days. It is estimated that after the rain, the temperature will drop several degrees and the crops will not grow at all.
Returning to the room, he served a bowl of hangover soup, handed it to Li Hui and asked:
"When do you plan to take the carriage?"
"Tomorrow, both Li Zhong and Tian Dong have studied horses, so it's a good time to take Tian Dong there. By the way, do you still have leather at home? I need to get a few more pairs of cotton boots this year, especially Tian Dong."
He was studying in Fucheng, and the only one who could travel back and forth was Tiandong. By preparing all the equipment for the child, he would have to deal with both ends, and he would suffer less.
"Then I'll buy two pairs for Xiao Qinglin. It's really worry-free for these six people to buy them. I have to thank them very much."
Young Master Xiao didn't lack anything, so they had no choice but to do their best to prepare some practical and usable things for him.
After a bowl of sour hangover soup, Li Hui got up and put down the quilt. The two rested as usual, listening to the wind outside, and slowly fell asleep...
