Dressed as the heroine of the farming novel and the best relative

Chapter 52 Banquet Invitation

Goldman Sachs accepted it without hesitation.

Uncle Quan was surprised. Whether the favor of saving someone's life is important or not depends entirely on the attitude of the person in the family who received the favor. If the other party is thoughtful and makes a more favorable request, I am afraid that the master and his wife will agree to it, otherwise it will be spread out. Not signing up doesn’t sound good.

I don’t know if Goldman Sachs didn’t understand, or if he knew the rules too well and didn’t want to embarrass the adults, so he simply accepted the thank you gift.

Uncle Quan asked curiously, "Young boy Gao, don't you see what the thank you gift is?"

"Oh, don't look at it. As long as it's from an adult or a madam, I think it's not bad." Goldman Sachs said casually, without thinking too much about this matter, and asked another question, "Uncle Quan, what are you doing this time?" Come to the village, but want to buy fish balls?”

"Boy Gao looks very confident." Uncle Quan said with a look in his eyes.

Goldman Sachs looked at him in confusion, "Didn't the county magistrate already agree to this matter? I'm sure you won't deceive ordinary people like a small person."

Uncle Quan couldn't help laughing, stroking his beard and said, "No wonder I like to talk to you, you have a clever mouth that can talk."

"Okay, no more joking. Your Excellency has indeed asked me to come over and buy some fish balls to use when we hold a banquet back in the county. Then we need to invite you and your wife Gao to come to the backyard of the county government office. Then you can help introduce these fish balls." Fish Ball."

"My lord has said that since we want to publicize the reputation of fish balls, we cannot waste this great opportunity. It happens that my lord has been in office for almost a month and has not met the officials, wealthy households, and landowners below, so I would like to take this opportunity. Host a party.”

"There may also be scholars coming to the banquet. I heard that Mr. Gao and your family seem to have some misunderstandings with Liu Juren and others. Why not take this opportunity to turn the hostility into friendship? This will be good for your family." Uncle Quan kindly gave a suggestion.

Hearing this, Goldman Sachs knew that this was indeed the case. After all, Liu Juren had a great reputation, so it was unnecessary to offend the other party severely. Besides, the county magistrate asked Uncle Quan to make some points. Liu Juren must not be the kind of person who doesn't know right from wrong. , it would be great to be able to put aside the past grudges.

"Thank you, Uncle Quan, for reminding me."

"This is an invitation. In three days, please come early." Uncle Quan finished his work and was about to leave.

Before leaving, he accidentally asked about Gao Gao's father causing trouble in front of Gao Xuan's house. Only then did Gao Sachs know that the county magistrate had seen what had happened. He was not in a hurry. After explaining the reason carefully, he saw Uncle Quan touching his beard and saying, " Every family has a difficult scripture to recite, Gao Xiao, don’t lose your principles for your loved ones, otherwise you will touch the bottom line of adults and Uncle Quan won’t be able to help you.”

"Yes." Goldman Sachs nodded and sent him into the carriage.

After Uncle Quan returned to the county office, he mentioned it when he met the county magistrate. The magistrate nodded with satisfaction, his voice full of joy, "Let me just say, how could I misjudge him? Goldman Sachs looks like He comes from an ordinary background, but he is actually a smart man, and it is easy to get along with him. The most important thing is that he is very good at reading and reacts quickly."

"No wonder they fought back because of Gao Xuan and his wife's plan. Even Longyou Shoal has no power. No matter how smart he is, there is only a limit to what he can do. Only then can he use this self-destructive method to prevent more risks in the future. At least it shows that the other person is a down-to-earth person.”

"Let's see how people in the county react to this incident."

"Yes, sir." Uncle Quan smiled helplessly. He could do nothing about his master's temperament of wanting to live in love and wanting to die in evil. Fortunately, his eyesight on people is not bad.

The county magistrate walked out with his hands behind his back, muttering in a low voice, "It seems that I have to give the other party more opportunities to make excuses in the future, otherwise wouldn't I regret missing out on the talent?"

the village.

Gao Mu entertained the villagers who came after hearing the news in the yard, placing boiled peanuts, mung bean cakes, soybean cakes, etc. in a generous and orderly manner.

Aunt Wu originally came here to ask gossips with the village women. She took a mung bean cake and almost bit her tongue off. "Isn't this delicious?"

"It's better than the ones bought at the pastry shops in town. Sister Gao, did you buy them at the county shop?"

The other village women just tasted it and were reluctant to eat it. They called their children over and let them eat it. They were sensible and did not snatch it. One piece for each person was enough. It was embarrassing to have more. "Yes, Aunt Gao, where did you buy this mung bean cake? Is it expensive?"

"Xiao Xi thought about it at home." Gao's mother smiled and explained, "She saw that there were a lot of mung beans and soybeans at home, so she thought about it."

"Xiao Xi's craftsmanship is also very good." Aunt Wu praised her unceremoniously. She still remembered Xiang Xi reminding her that Wang Wei was not as reliable as Zhou Qi. This married man dressed and ate with a married woman. If he met someone bad, If you hurt someone, your life will be ruined.

Other village women also started to praise him.

Gao Mu accepted the compliment with a smile. She praised Xiang Xi just to praise her.

"Well, Sister Gao, I heard that the county magistrate wants to buy fish balls, what can we do?"

"Don't be in a hurry now. Just wait until the boss and the others finish attending the county magistrate's banquet, and then everyone can cooperate and spread the news." Gao's mother had been told by Goldman Sachs a long time ago.

"By the way, if you are good at cooking, you can go to the kitchen to find Xiao Xi and follow along to see what kind of ways you can eat the meatballs." Thinking of this, Gao's mother hurriedly patted her head and said.

As soon as these words came out, several women went to the kitchen on the spot.

Xiang Xi heard that everyone came to tell them how to eat meatballs, and they all welcomed them.

"Xiao Xi, look, can we make cold and sweet and sour meatballs?"

“There are also exploding fish balls with tomatoes.”

"I think the braised fish balls are also delicious."

Xiang Xi listened to these strange suggestions, touched his chin and nodded and said, "You are so smart. Let's try it all and then serve it out to everyone. We can make a popular menu and use it at banquets."

Several women were praised, their faces were a little red, and they became more motivated. They actually researched a lot of rare foods. In order to ensure that the fish balls did not look low-grade, Xiang Xi spent a lot of money on them because they only had the reputation of being eaten by poor people. I bought a lot of expensive ingredients at a big price.

the next three days.

Xiang Xi and Goldman Sachs both spent their time studying fish ball dishes.

The third day of November.

The county magistrate invited the county government and all the gentry, wealthy households, and scholars in the town to attend a banquet at the county magistrate's house. This was the first banquet held by the county magistrate after he took office. No one who received the invitation was willing Missed it, a carriage appeared at the door of the house early.

Xiang Xi instructs the chefs in the backyard kitchen to prepare dishes.

Goldman Sachs was in the front yard, following the magistrate, getting to know people.

Speaking of which, Goldman Sachs also saw an acquaintance, Lin Yunxiao. He was following the county magistrate, and like him he came to recognize someone.

Although the county magistrate didn't say it, his intention was obvious. He wanted to use Goldman Sachs, otherwise he wouldn't have taken him with him.
