Chapter 290
Chen Xingyan was also speechless after hearing this.

She knows that there are everyone in this world, and that human nature cannot stand the test.

But this has not yet reached that point, those petty officials who are eating the imperial food have started to make money calculations.

If Mr. Li knew about this matter, I don't know how angry he would be.

Chen Xingyan sighed, there is no need to ask, this dull bear must have rejected those people too, I am afraid that the words he said were not so pleasant.

"Are you arguing?"

Lu Daxiong was stunned for a moment, and then looked at his little wife in a stupid way: "I don't have any. I didn't admit how much food I had at all. Even if someone saw me transporting food into the village, I would explain that it was my family. There's not enough food for everyone."

Chen Xingyan raised his eyebrows, thinking that Jingyuan indeed supports hundreds of people, and the most important thing is that most of the land in Jingyuan is not suitable for growing food, otherwise, she would not have made such an ornamental A stronger garden.

"Well, it's fine if you don't admit it. But there are two things in this matter, you'd better confess it, and people who know the inside can't disclose it. Also, no matter who comes to ask you, just say that there is no food."

"Ok, I know."

Chen Xingyan was a little helpless. This stupid bear was a little dumbfounded, but he was very obedient. No matter who made the suggestion, he would think it over carefully, which is very rare.

And ever since my elder brother came to Lu's Village for the first time, he has been advocating that Lu Daxiong should read more books.

Chen Xinglou not only said that, but up to now, he has brought at least a dozen books to Lu Daxiong.

At first, Lu Daxiong brought "The Analects of Confucius", and then the two of them had an in-depth conversation, and the book Chen Xinglou gave him became a kind of military strategy.

In fact, Chen Xingyan didn't quite understand that Lu Daxiong, a small inspector with more than [-] people under his command, still needs to study the art of war?

In any case, it is always a good thing for a man to make progress.

Isn't that right? After Chen Xingyan persuaded him a few words, Lu Daxiong's anger subsided, and he read a book of The Art of War.

Chen Xingyan finally understands that Lu Daxiong is a rough guy who doesn't want to learn rules or etiquette, but he is more interested in swords, swords and warfare, so he has some skills.

Chen Xingyan could only comfort himself like this.

After all, the current stable life has already made her very content.

On the one hand, he did not expect Lu Daxiong to be a Marquis and Prime Minister, and on the other hand, he did not expect Lu Daxiong to become rich and powerful.

Besides, since I have the ability, I don't need to rely on a man to support me.

After Lu Daxiong had breakfast the next day, he was not in a hurry to go to the inspection department, but instead followed Chen Xingyan to wander around the garden.

"Why don't you go to work? Don't you think that there is no one in this town to control you, so you want to be lazy?"

Lu Daxiong waved his hand and said, "How is it possible? I want to discuss something with you."

"You said."

"I went to Liguo to buy grain, didn't I delay it for a month? Although this matter was passed on by Mr. Li later, but after all, I didn't work for a month. The day and night were all my subordinates. Helping the brothers is working hard, I thought, should I treat them to a drink?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Xingyan turned around and stared at him straight.

"It wasn't a big deal in the first place. If you want to treat guests, just invite them. Don't you have money? Oh, by the way, you are allowed to keep accounts in the two restaurants in the town."

Lu Daxiong was a little embarrassed, "Well, Xing Xing, they want to come to our Jingyuan to have a look. Now that Jingyuan is famous, they are all rough people. They know that it is impossible to be invited to enjoy the scenery, and they are not very rich. Master, it must be reluctant to let them pay for it themselves."

Chen Xingyan raised his eyebrows: "So you just agreed to bring them to Jingyuan for recreation?"

There are more than 30 people!

Among other things, Chen Xingyan was afraid that these big bastards would pull out the flowers he had worked so hard to plant.

"Xing Xing, I am discussing with you."

Chen Xingyan knew that Lu Daxiong was quite dignified outside, even the head catchers in the county government were very respectful when they saw him.

"Fine, you can bring it here, but if you dare to damage one of my flowers, you will sleep in the study for a month!"

The corner of Lu Daxiong's mouth twitched, this little daughter-in-law really grasped his weakness to death.

"The time is set in three days. I have distinguished guests tomorrow, all of whom are female relatives. Please be kind to me and don't make me angry."

"it is good."

Lu Daxiong became much more obedient in an instant.

Chen Xingyan thought of the brothers under Lu Daxiong and helped them a lot.

Although I have also given benefits to others, I always feel embarrassed.

"Chen Jian, after three days, my husband will bring his hands down to enjoy the flowers. You should remember to prepare the food and wine better. Also, you must not entertain the female relatives that day."

"Yes, Miss. It's just that I don't know how many tables to prepare? But do you still need to invite some of my uncle's clansmen to come and accompany me?"

Chen Xingyan was startled, but forgot about this.

"At that time, please invite the village chief and father to come over, and then call Lu Xing's family, Lu Youcai, Lu Youtian, and Er Mazi."

Chen Jian had stayed in the Chen Mansion, and she had learned the rules since she was a child.

"Miss, it stands to reason that they are all uncle's subordinates, and the village head and grandfather are elders, so there is no need to come and accompany them."

"I don't need them to sit and accompany me. I just need to come over and show my face. It's also for them to get acquainted. The main thing is to invite the village chief to come and have a look. After all, he is the patriarch."

When Chen Xingyan said this, he paused again, "Forget it, just look at the arrangement. If it's not suitable, then we won't invite them over."

Chen Jian's eyes rolled, and she could probably guess what the master was thinking.

"Yes, Miss. The county schools and private schools are also in class now. Why don't you make arrangements after my uncle's dinner? How about inviting some relatives over for a drink?"

Chen Xingyan thought it was a good idea.

What she thought just now was that it seemed inappropriate to only invite the village head, but now that Chen Jian mentioned it, she nodded and agreed.

Chen Xingyan invited more than [-] female relatives this time.

Only Mrs. Guan brought four young ladies out. When Mrs. Guan saw Chen Xingyan, she felt embarrassed. After all, he only sent one post, and she brought several of them here, as if deliberately taking advantage of him. .

"Second Miss Guan and Third Miss gave me a special gift just now. Originally, I invited everyone to come over to have fun, but now they accept the gift instead, which feels inappropriate."

What she said immediately made Madam Guan no longer embarrassed, and she took her hand kindly and said: "What's wrong! If you are free, just help me teach them."

After Madam Guan finished speaking, she moved closer and said in a low voice, "The one who entered Cheng's house came back from Fucheng yesterday."
