Chapter 217 This Is the Book Tanhualang Read

None of the officials could explain it.

The villagers in Wangjiadun are very happy during this time. There are three buckets more per mu of land, and three stones per ten mu of land, and more fields are even more impressive.They all felt that after the saline-alkali land, the rice production of their whole village increased.Now that the officials have disclosed the news to everyone, they believe in this idea more and more, and they are more cordial when they meet the Chen family.

A magnificent carriage arrived at the door of Chen Fan's house, and a man who looked like a butler got off the car and asked politely to the yard: "Excuse me, is this Miss Chen's house? My surname is Wen, and my master asked me to bring things over." .”

Qin Zheng quickly appeared at the door: "Manage Wen? Please come in, I'll go to the back garden to invite the master over." As soon as he finished speaking, he patted his mouth and looked around.

There was no one else at the door.Master Qiang was busy in the stables in the distance, Xiu Niang and Qingtang seemed to be in the inner courtyard, and Granny Zhou and others were in the kitchen.

Zhang Ci and Chen Fan came to the main hall after hearing Chu Sheng's announcement.Qin Zheng led the people in and introduced each other.

Wen Guanshi looked at Zhang Ci with tears in his eyes, his lips trembling with excitement.Qin Zheng coughed lightly before he came back to his senses and saluted: "I have met Miss Chen, I have met Mr. Zhang. I am a steward of Mr. Zhongshu Ling's house. I received a letter from the master and brought some things. Come here." He put a box in his hand on the table.

After Chen Fan said some polite words, he told him to wait a while, and Master Zhongshu Ling would come over soon.

Qin Zheng came over to serve tea, and Zhang Ci and Wen Guanshi began to chat about the affairs of the capital.

After waiting for a quarter of an hour, Zhong Shuling came.Wen Guanshi hurriedly stood up: "Master!"

Zhongshu Ling nodded in response, and sat down: "Is the journey going smoothly?"

"Smooth and smooth, how is the master these days?"

Zhong Shuling nodded: "Everything is fine, the Chen family and the Liu family are very considerate."

Wen Guanshi hurriedly expressed his thanks to Chen Fan and Zhang Ci.

"How is Madam?"

"Madam is well, but autumn and winter are relatively dry, and the wind in the capital is relatively dry. Madam often feels that her throat is not very comfortable." Wen Guanshi said.

"Have you taken your medicine?"

"Never took any medicine."

"When you go back, I'll bring you a few meal recipes and let the family cook them for you."

Wen Guanshi complied dubiously.

"Have you brought anything?" Zhong Shuling asked.

"Bring it here, please have a look, master." Manager Wen opened the box, and there was a stack of books inside.

Zhong Shuling looked at Chen Fan: "This is a book my son has read, and there are some notes on it. I heard that Miss Chen wants to open a bookstore?"

Chen Fan got up and replied: "Yes, I have discussed some ideas with Zhang Ci."

"These books, I will give them to you now." Zhong Shuling said solemnly.

Chen Fan was shocked: "Give it to me? These books..."

"The books are left idle in the capital, and it would be a blessing if they could be shared with more people."

Chen Fan bowed deeply: "Thank you, sir!"

"You're welcome. When will the bookstore open? I'll introduce it to everyone at the door. Only when I introduce myself can people believe it."

Chen Fan saluted again: "When will your lord be free?"

"Tomorrow and the day after tomorrow are fine. If you have anything to discuss, you can come to me."

Chen Fan agreed.

Zhong Shuling stood up: "I live in the back garden, you and A Liang come with me."

Wen Guanshi bid farewell to everyone and followed Zhong Shuling out of the house.

Chen Fan silently looked at the books in the box.Zhang Ci also sat silently for a while, picked up a book from inside, and stroked it gently.

Chen Fan carefully picked up a book and opened it, but he didn't see any familiar characters.

She glanced at Zhang Ci, and he was still stroking the book.

She lowered her head and began to read, very absorbed in reading.

I have to say that the notes written by Tanhualang are really fascinating.

Zhang Ci also opened the book, but stopped on a certain page.

Wen Guanshi and the coachman A Liang are visiting the garden.The two looked at Zhongshu Ling from time to time.

"What do you want to say?" Zhong Shuling looked at them with a smile.

"Master looks very good." Wen Guanshi said.

"Young Master has grown taller and more handsome." A Liang said.

Zhong Shuling chuckled, "That's all?"

Wen Guanshi hesitated for a moment and said, "Then Miss Chen seems a bit dark?"

Zhongshuling laughed and said, "My son is dark too."

"That's different, my lord is..." Wen Guanshi abruptly turned a corner, "Does she know?"

"Perhaps you guessed it?" Zhong Shuling's words were ambiguous.

"Is she nice to Young Master?" Wen Guanshi asked carefully.

"What do you think?"

Wen Guanshi was not sure: "Young master looks good, she should be okay, right?"

Zhong Shuling smiled: "What else is on the carriage?"

Wen Guanshi replied: "The madam asked the old slave to bring them. Some are for the master and son to maintain their health, and there are also some clothes materials and rouge jewelry."

"When will it be given to them?"

"Listen to the master's arrangement."

Cui Yunlang came to the main hall and saw the box of books.

"This is Tanhua's book? Can I have a look?"

Chen Fan glanced at Zhang Ci, just as Zhang Ci also looked over, the two nodded together.

Cui Yunlang carefully picked up a book, sat beside him and read it quietly.

Wen Guanshi was a little surprised when he saw the other officials: "Everyone looks very good, is it the south's water and soil that support people?"

Tang Chaoying smiled: "The water and soil here really support people."

Wen Guanshi plucked the hair from the lion's mouth: "When the time comes, will you return to the capital with such a rosy complexion?"

The expressions of several lions changed.

"We seem to have lost weight," Zhong Shuling said.

All the officials breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.

Wen Guanshi took a few glances, not sure: "The master is indeed a little thinner, my lords?"

The adults changed their faces again.

At dinner, Tang Chaoying gave Guanshi Wen and the coachman a bowl of soup, saying, "This soup nourishes yin and nourishes the lungs, and it will also make your throat feel better."

The two of them ate the food and drank the soup, and both felt that it tasted very good.

"It's no wonder the adults look so good, and they are happy just eating like this every day. This country cook's craftsmanship is so good." A Liang said.

"Drinking a soup and talking about nourishing yin and nourishing the lungs, is the farmhouse eating so famous?" Chief Wen saw it.

Zhong Shuling and Cui Yunlang had dinner in the main room.Zhong Shuling said: "The family brought some materials, and you are here, so choose one."

Cui Yunlang was very happy: "Thank you, Uncle! These days are really fairy days for me. I have food, drink, play and gifts."

After the meal, Zhong Shuling asked people to bring in all the things and distributed gifts to everyone.The children saluted neatly: "Thank you, sir! Thank you, madam!"

The four little girls were discussing rouge and gouache in the room.

"As expected of Beijing's rouge gouache, even the box and bottle are so pretty! I want to keep the box and bottle." Chen Ying couldn't put it down.

"I want to keep it too, there are still some gadgets in the box." Chen Xiu said.

Zhang Ci is in Chen Fan's room.

"I can't wear these brocade forgings, right? Is this even helping to prepare gifts for others?" Chen Fan looked at the exquisite materials in front of him.

Zhang Ci smiled: "It's their honor to associate with the female family members of the official family and send them out."

These words are interesting, Chen Fan sent good materials, his face was radiant, and the recipient knew that it was prepared by Mrs. Jingcheng Zhongshuling, so he also had face.

Chen Fan looked at Zhang Ci: "Would you like to pick something for me and give it to Madam?"
