Chapter 179
Immediately afterwards, everyone gathered around to congratulate Li Xiaoyuan.

"We all know that Mr. Li is a dragon and phoenix among people. Now that you know Yuan, your status is different. Congratulations."

Seeing their envious eyes, Lin Qingruo felt delighted for some reason, the man standing beside her was really not an ordinary person.

"Thanks to everyone's congratulations, how about we have a barbecue tonight?"

The villagers were a little puzzled, what is it about barbecue after living so long?
"what is that?"

Lin Qingruo realized in an instant that there is no such thing as barbecue in this world, so she immediately explained.

"Barbecue is to grill the food that everyone likes to eat on the charcoal fire, and add the seasoning of the usual stir-fry. It has a special flavor. Anyone who wants to congratulate will have a share."

Hearing this, the big guy kept leaning towards Li Xiaoyuan, the congratulations sounded one after another, and soon Lin Qingruo was squeezed out and almost fell to the ground, but fortunately Li Xiaoyuan had quick eyesight and quick hands, and pulled him into his arms .

Lin Qingruo realized in an instant that this was the first time she had such an intimate act in front of everyone, she couldn't help but blush and broke away from Li Xiaoyuan's embrace.

For this kind of scene, Li Xiaoyuan has never been used to perfunctory congratulations from everyone.

"Thank you folks, my wife is hosting a barbecue tonight, and my family has a reunion."

After speaking, he was ready to pull Lin Qingruo away.

A wealthy businessman emerged from the crowd to block the way.

"Li Jieyuan, walk slowly."

Following this person's voice, Li Xiaoyuan raised his head slowly, seeing that this person was dressed in extraordinary clothes, not an ordinary person.

"May I ask why you blocked my way?"

"I've seen Li Jieyuan's achievements, why don't you come to my house and be my son-in-law. After a hundred years, all my property will belong to you."

Li Xiaoyuan immediately felt that this person was a little ridiculous, so he immediately explained.

"I'm afraid I will disappoint the favor of the noble family. I have a good wife in my family, so it is inconvenient to insult the young lady of your family."

I never thought that the rich businessman would not give up, so he continued.

"That's so difficult, you can stop wives and marry again."

Before Li Xiaoyuan refused, Lin Qingruo wanted to jump out and show that she was his wife, but at this time the rich businessman was showing off.

"If you stop your wife and remarry, it will be of great benefit. I am the big owner of Yanzhou Minghe Cloth. As long as you become the door-to-door son-in-law, I can guarantee that you will go to the most famous Qingge Academy to study."

Then he glanced at Lin Qingruo who was nestled beside Li Xiaoyuan with some disdain.

"As for this woman, your husband is not an ordinary person. As a peasant girl, you have no background and ability. Don't be ignorant of good and bad, and hinder his future."

Lin Qingruo was originally furious, but when she heard about Minghe's cloth, Lin Qingruo became interested.

The big owner of Yanzhou Minghe Cloth?That's the person who Li Wei introduced to him as the leader?

"My husband and I don't know Taishan, so please ask the big boss, Haihan. I heard that your Yanzhou gang is going to join forces with a man named Chen Ziyan to discuss business plans? I will write to my cousin and ask him to visit the leader of your gang. Take me with you from time to time, and let me, a peasant woman, learn a lot.”

When the rich businessman heard Lin Qingruo's words, his heart was shocked, and he looked at Lin Qing again. He was dressed plainly, and although he was pretty, he didn't look like a wealthy person. How could he think that the Dragon King Temple would be flooded?
His face changed, and then he bowed and apologized and left.

"This person is really, if he has a little money, he will spend it lavishly, thinking that those few copper coins can buy everyone's heart, now that the matter is settled, come with me!"

Lin Qingruo left old man Li with his own strength, and now he sent away a wealthy businessman, extremely arrogant, and dragged Li Xiaoyuan away.

"Let me tell you! Don't have any other thoughts. Since you crossed over here, you have been my little boy. Even if I despise you, you can't leave me."

Lin Qingruo's words seemed to show off, but also seemed to order Li Xiaoyuan, so he could only nod with a smile.

"Yes, I have been bullied by you from the very beginning. Now that your status is getting higher and higher, can I still bully you?"

The two talked and laughed, and walked home, and saw a group of people gathered in front of their cement house from a distance, mumbling something.

"What's the situation? Could it be that old man Li?"

Lin Qingruo quickened her pace, and after taking a closer look, she realized that it was Xin Gu who came to her door with the yamen servant.

"You guys are back. I've been waiting for a long time, and I've heard the news about being selected. Today, I specially brought the yamen servants here to hire Mr. Li as a master."

"No need. I have an old mother and a child. If I work as a master in the yamen, I will inevitably miss my job. My grandfather should find someone else!"

Lin Qingruo declined Li Gu's invitation without even thinking about it. Xin Gu thought that Li Xiaoyuan was just being polite and wanted to continue persuading him.

"How many people's honor is it to go to the yamen to be a master? Why don't you agree?"

Lin's mother came out and saw the county magistrate's servants coming to the door one after another, thinking that Li Xiaoyuan had committed something outside, only now did she find out that it was an appointment, such a happy event.

"Mother, Xiao Yuanzhong knows Yuan, and now he is busy taking the Jinshi exam. If he agrees to the master's errand, he will inevitably focus on two things in the future."

Only then did Mother Lin clear up her confusion, she always felt that this uncle was not an ordinary person, but she did not expect that he would step into the officialdom, and she agreed with her in her heart. Xin Gu looked at the impeccable family and was about to leave, but was caught by old man Li. He brought his brother-in-law to stop him.

"Master of the County, since Li Xiaoyuan is not willing to be the teacher, the old man, I still have a son who has just been promoted, and he only wants to be a small official in Xiao Yuanli. Please also ask the Lord of the County to put my stupid son under your command. Practice, and it will be your helper in the future."

Seeing Old Man Li nodding and bowing, Xin Gu was a little embarrassed. Although he was reluctant to be a teacher as a Juren, but the youngest son of the Li family had never been in contact with him himself, so he didn't know what his talent was. What if he caused trouble in the future?
"What are you talking about? Mr. Li didn't even dare to come forward to be a teacher when he knew Yuan. Your son is just a mere recruiter, and he only wants to work in the county government. You can think about it clearly. The county government is not an acre of land for your family. "

Xin Gu is aware of the Li family's grievances, Lin Qingruo has always been dissatisfied with the Li family's youngest son, and the Li family's youngest son is mediocre, and now he is lucky enough to win the Juren. Shoot yourself in the foot?
"The magistrate of the county is just joking. My son lacks experience, so he just wants to find a job with you, Xiao Yuan. Even if he is a yamen servant, it is better than him wasting his time at home."

Xin Gu didn't want to offend Lin Qingruo, and was afraid of trouble, so he resolutely rejected Old Man Li.

"Who is your son, come and have a look?"

The old man of the Li family happily pushed his youngest son up.

"This is Gouzi. He usually studies hard at home. Today, he heard that the county magistrate came here. He admires the principles of the county magistrate, and hopes to learn something from the county magistrate."
