Reborn Nongmen Merchant Concubine

Chapter 353
Folklore, the 23rd of the lunar calendar in December is the small New Year's Eve in the south, and the 24th of the lunar calendar is the small New Year's Eve in the north!Unfortunately, today is the day when Mengjia promised to entertain the villagers on the New Year's Eve.

Mengyuan, the protagonist, must be present, but this time her status is different, and there are servants to greet all the big and small things in the family, and Mengxiong and Mrs. Li are also responsible for the banquet.As for her, she is also willing to be that idler!

"Girl, the banquet is about to start, but the person you must invite has not come yet, do you think you want this old slave to go to the town to have a look?"

"Didn't come? Didn't all the invitations be sent? Why didn't you come? Wait and see, maybe it's on the way!"

"That's fine. If the people still haven't arrived in half an hour, the old slave will go to the town to have a look. The banquet at our Meng family is a big deal. If we don't have a feast when the auspicious time comes, the old slave is worried that the villagers will complain!"

"Heh, I didn't ask them to give me money for the banquet, so how dare I make trouble with me? Today, the banquet will not be held if there are not enough people. I want to see who will make trouble for me?"

"Isn't this... inappropriate? It's okay for adults to say that the children can't stand it and have already started eating on the mat, and... they still eat so much that it's not an exaggeration to say it's a mess."

Hearing such words, Mengyuan really didn't know what to say except for the black line on her forehead.To put it bluntly, the current standard of living in Qiushui Village is no longer what it was two years ago. Maybe it's because I've always been frugal, and I don't want to reward myself when I have money!

"When the child is full, ask the people below to prepare a new table and bring it up. Try not to see such a messy scene for the guests."

"Yes, girl, the old slave will go to work first!"

Meng Yuan nodded, she is drawing some rabbits in the house now, she and Ling Xiaoyu are married, Xiaoran is still young, if she really gets married, the property in Qiushui Village will continue to be preserved , but you can't live without your own property in Fucheng.

What she is painting now is to take some time to go to Fucheng to buy a piece of land in the suburbs and build a dream house like the one here in Qiushui Village.She didn't want her parents to adapt to an unfamiliar house after going to a strange environment.

"Buying land in Fucheng is expensive, and this is a rhythm that requires you to bleed a lot! The key problem is not whether to bleed or not, but that you may not be able to buy it even if you have money!

But if you don't buy it, will you let Xiaoran go to school in this poor mountain valley in the future?It's not that she discriminates against the poor, but that the learning environment and personal factors can determine a person's academic future.Enlightenment in Qiushui Village is fine, but if you want to learn deeper knowledge, you can only go to a big town to find a prestigious and knowledgeable teacher to receive a better education.

Yes, poor mountain valleys can also produce talents. There are many such examples since ancient times. However, these are rare.Otherwise, there would not be a large number of parents in big cities who want to send their children to prestigious schools.

In fact, whether she can learn well depends mostly on her own personal factors. Of course, many things have opposites. Since she has this ability to give her family better, why must she wrong them? "

In this way, Mengyuan kept writing and drawing, and half an hour passed quickly.However, Cheng Qiang came to report that everyone who should have arrived except the bearded uncle did not come. "

"Girl, look, this matter...?"

"Since the time is up and it hasn't come, maybe something really delayed it? The villagers are also waiting anxiously. I believe that because of today's meal, everyone didn't eat enough last night just to eat well today. Hold on! Let's go, go out, and announce the opening of the banquet!"

Qiushui Village is not big, but there are still a lot of residents. Several households have moved here in the past two years. Everyone can guess the reason even if you don't say it.Although Mengyuan's reputation is not very good, and people from ten miles and eight villages know about her affairs, however, these do not affect her own ability at all, which is indeed not comparable to ordinary people.

The few families who moved to Qiushui Village had the mentality of being close to the water and gaining the moon first, so that their children could be imbued with the aura of Ren Mengyuan.

"First of all, thank you very much for coming to this banquet, and thank you very much for letting go of the past. The reason why I have a big feast for all the villagers today is to announce the good news to everyone. Second, today is the New Year's Eve. Our achievements are also inseparable from everyone's support, so I took this opportunity to have a lively New Year with everyone."

"Mengya, it's not us elders talking about you, you said you are so capable, and there are quite a few people in our village who are the same age as you, can you help them all learn something by your side? "

"Yes, you said, you are so capable, those children are still young, and their tempers have not yet settled down. If you learn a little bit by your side, then we parents can rest assured when we go out in the future, right?"

"Yes, yes, Meng Ya, my aunt is not afraid that you will dislike her. What do you think of my Chunmei? People are honest and responsible, just turn your head slowly, but if you bring her by your side She can help you a lot."

Facing the villagers' questions, Mengyuan standing on the stage didn't know what to say except smiling. There were five or ten children of her age in Qiushui Village, and they all couldn't read a single word. If you really want to bring it with you, just teaching literacy is a big project.

However, if I don't agree today, it seems that today's banquet will change a bit!Moreover, there is indeed no shortage of manpower in the factory now, and there is nothing to do with a half-grown child except as a follower.

"Villagers, let's talk about this matter after the new year. Now the factory has enough manpower, and you should know your own children. They are all half-grown children. I can't say that I have too many children around me. Children, right? After all, I am in business, not teaching and educating people."

"Tch, it sounds nice. Don't you just not want to take other people's children with you? Could it be that you are worried that other people's children are smarter and more capable than you?"

"If he has this ability, I think the villagers will be happy, but only if the children in our village, except for the boys who have gone to school for a few days, the girls are busy behind their parents, let alone literacy. Shy when meeting strangers.

Just ask, how can you be timid when doing business?If you can't even meet strangers, how can you do business?I didn't expect people to think that I brought someone on a blind date! "

The villagers sitting at the bottom only thought of letting their children learn from Mengyuan, but they looked to see if their children really had the ability to learn.It's okay for boys to say, girls, if you fall in love with the boss and want to marry, won't it make Meng Yuan embarrassed?

"Okay, let me say something. Renmeng's family is hosting a banquet for the villagers today. What do you mean by that? Is this a rush to get someone to bring your child with you? Mengya only has one child, and you also have one child. Don't think about it, just eat meat if your mouth is too idle, these are good things that we can't eat all year round!"

Li Liang, as the village head, naturally couldn't let a few mouse droppings muddy good things.

With the presence of the village chief, Mengyuan was relieved. If the villagers insisted on following her from the fortress, she really couldn't refuse.Although their family will move to Fucheng sooner or later, they don't want to get into trouble with the villagers before they move.

"Everyone, let's eat with open stomachs, there are still kitchens that are not enough."

The villagers don't need to look at Mengyuan's face, but they still have to give the village chief's face, otherwise they won't be able to take advantage of any good things in the future.It is impossible for every village to be perfect, and there are always one or two that are daunting.

After the speech, Mengyuan walked to the table where Li Tian was sitting, which was also the main table of her family.

"Mengya, congratulations, you are finally able to be together with the second son in a legitimate way! Although you also had some... huh, we all know things, but it is different after the emperor decreed the marriage. , from now on, I have to call you Madam Guojiu!"

"Mrs. Uncle Guo? Mrs. Li, what does that mean?" Mengxiong suddenly heard about Uncle Guo, but he hoped it wasn't what he thought. Their family came from a farming family, so they couldn't be superior to others.

Li Tian saw that his parents didn't know, and then saw Mengyuan winking at him, and then he realized that the second son is still a black household with his parents!But, what to do, he seemed to have accidentally said it.

"Don't tell Mr. Li, Mengya, tell yourself, what's going on? Isn't Xiao Yu the owner of Yuefulou? How did you become an uncle again?"

Mengyuan looked at her parents and smiled awkwardly: "Father, mother, this matter, it is a bit complicated, there are so many things today, I will explain to you later, okay?"

"No, I have to make it clear now!"

Meng Yuan was dumbfounded, seeing Li Shi's attitude, it seemed that it was impossible for her to play haha.Anyway, it is always necessary to know. "Well, as you have heard, Ling Xiaoyu is the uncle of the current dynasty, but the uncle of the second country, because he also has an older brother, and her sister is the wife of the current emperor, the mother and queen of the country!"

Two days ago, the couple were a little confused by the news that their daughter was given a marriage, but now, they just want to make sure that they are not dreaming?It can be said that the reason why the emperor bestowed the marriage on the daughter was because the daughter had indeed made a lot of ideas in agriculture, however, the object of the marriage was still such a well-known family.

Mengyuan nodded: "In other words, I knew about it a few days earlier than my parents, but I promise, I didn't hide it on purpose, or I was afraid that I would scare you if I said it, so how much should I blame myself?"
