Chapter 139

Jian Shiming looked up at Tao Xi, "It's all thanks to the lady, Shiming dare not covet it."

"You are a couple, it doesn't matter who you are."

Gu Yan waved his hand indifferently, then looked at Tao Xi and said, "I'm sorry, sister-in-law, although I told King Jing about that.

But I mentioned Brother Jian's name emphatically, after all, Brother Jian is going to pursue an official career in the future, and these are beneficial and harmless to Brother Jian. "

"It's okay."

Tao Xi didn't care about these false names, and she didn't even want King Jing to know her magic.

After all, the more high-ranking people are, the more they want these weird things, and she doesn't want to expose them.

Jian Shiming obviously thought so too, and immediately said, "Thank you, Brother Gu, for your consideration."

His back broke out in cold sweat. It seemed that he must pay more attention to this matter in the future.

"Don't be so polite."

Gu Yan ordered people to move the things into the house, Tao Xi took a look, and Gu Yan probably fought for this thing.

Since they were all things they needed, such as cloth and food, King Jing probably wasn't so considerate.

Tao Xi has a better impression of Gu Yan, and it seems that he can cooperate with him more in the future.

After everything was moved in, Gu Yan and the others sat in the yard, and Jian Erni kept the gate of the yard tightly, blocking the curious eyes of those outside.

"Besides that, the most important thing is this."

Gu Yan took out a stack of bank notes from his sleeve, startling the people in the yard.

There are dozens of 100 taels of bank notes in this thick stack.

"This is……"

Jian Shiming and Tao Xi looked at each other with surprise in their eyes, obviously they didn't expect King Jing to be so generous.

Gu Yan smiled mysteriously: "This is nothing, and I haven't brought you a carriage yet, because I'm afraid you won't be able to put it here.

Plus those things are expensive, I'm afraid to bring unnecessary trouble to you. "

"Brother Gu is thoughtful, Shi Ming is very grateful."

Jian Shiming cupped his hands slightly, with gratitude in his black eyes, and then handed the banknote to Tao Xi naturally.

It has to be said that Gu Yan is really good at winning people's hearts.

Tao Xi thought, no wonder Jian Shiming and Gu Yan would become good brothers later.

"Master Gu, please sit down first, I will cook."

Tao Xi took Jian Erni into the kitchen and found the food in the thank you gift, including meat and food, and she was not stingy, so she simply steamed rice for lunch.

By the way, I made a bowl of braised pork, pork ribs with potatoes, and the last vegetable was sweet potato vines.

As soon as the food was served on the table, Gu Yan couldn't help sniffling, "The food cooked by sister-in-law is delicious."

Tao Xi: ...

Obviously you didn't say that last time.

"You brought the rice and meat here. As for the sweet potato vines, there are plenty of them in our village now."

Without changing his face, Tao Xi filled a bowl of rice for each of his brothers and sisters, which made them drool.

But the children of Jane's family are very well-bred, and the eldest brother, sister-in-law and guests didn't move their chopsticks, so they sat obediently.

"Well, it's delicious!"

Gu Yan took a sip of the braised pork, his eyes narrowed slightly as it was so fragrant, it seemed that it was wise to take the initiative to bring the ingredients this time.

That's right, in fact, the meat and grains were added secretly by Gu Yan himself.

"That's natural. My sister-in-law did it herself."

Jian Erni raised her neck proudly. In her eyes, Tao Xi was the most powerful woman in the world.

Although Jian Shiwu and Jian Shiyi didn't speak, their eyes showed the same intention.

Gu Yan couldn't laugh or cry watching such a scene of unity, even so, the speed of Gu Yan's chopsticks did not slow down.

"Sir, eat quickly."

Seeing that the meat in the bowl was getting less and less, Tao Xi found that Jian Shiming was still eating so politely, so he couldn't help but pick some dishes for him.

Seeing this, the children also speeded up their eating speed. Gu Yan didn't have the mood to talk at the moment. You fought over each other for a meal, but everyone's stomachs became round after eating.

"Brother Jian, I have been in Yun County for so long, and I finally had a decent meal."

Gu Yan couldn't help but miss the old days, but he didn't regret it, and if he didn't leave the capital, he would never know what kind of life the common people lived.

Jian Shiming wiped his lips with a coarse cloth square, and reminded softly, "The rabbit meat last time..."

"Ah, plus that time, this time is the second decent meal."

Gu Yan smiled embarrassingly, he was busy with business, and he didn't have time to stay, so he left Jane's house soon.

As soon as the people left, Jian Shiming immediately said to Tao Xi: "Go and collect the more expensive gifts in the house."

He could already predict that the villagers would come to their house to gossip soon.

"it is good!"

Tao Xi walked into the house immediately, and left the dishes and chopsticks outside to his younger siblings to clean up.

She picked and picked in the room, collecting some more expensive cloth items, and the bank notes had already been put into the space.

But seeing that most of the things were missing, she frowned. The villagers all had eyes, but they watched Gu Yan pull a carriage.

Suddenly, Tao Xi's eyes lit up, and he took out the new cloth that had been hidden in the bandit's lair.

These cloths are not comparable to those brought by Gu Yan, but they are not too bad, the villagers should not doubt it.

When she was about to tidy up, the voices of Jian Erni talking to Hu Ziniang sounded outside.

"Erni, what happened last time was that my aunt was wrong. Huzi would pee then. I was busy taking care of Huzi, so I forgot to say hello to Wang Laogen's family."

Hu Ziniang is thick-skinned, no matter what happens, she can continue to talk to you without changing her face.

"It's okay, Wang Youcai apologized to me."

Jian Erni said that she didn't care, but she knew it in her heart. The sister-in-law was right, people like Hu Ziniang should not be friends with each other.

Out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of Li bringing many villagers in, and quickly changed the subject.

"Auntie, the food is almost harvested recently. My elder brother said that classes will resume tomorrow. Remember to let Huzi come to study."

"Good good."

Hu Ziniang put down the basket on her body, then lifted the coarse cloth and yelled to Jian Shi who was not far away:

"Brother Ming, quickly take out your account book, I will pay it back."

Mrs. Wang also responded with a smile all over her face: "I'm also here to pay the debt."

"And me, Brother Ming, call your wife out!"

Li was smiling, and the people behind them were all carrying food, either in baskets or sacks.

"it is good."

Jian Shiming got up and went into his room to get the account book that Li was helping to keep earlier. It was a wooden slip made of pieces of bamboo.

Tao Xi also came out of the house, and the moment the door opened, she caught a glimpse of the curious eyes of the women in the village.

Sure enough, Jian Shiming was right, gossip is human nature.

The sharp-eyed glanced at the things in the room, and he gasped suddenly, envy flashed in his eyes soon.

But everyone was sensible and didn't ask any more questions. This is also Tao Xi's family. If it was someone else, I'm afraid the villagers would have been swallowed up by jealousy.

 It's the end of the month, let's vote!The list is related to whether the author can have enough food, and the treasures help me to make a wave!Thanks for the support!
