The farm girl has a field and is super powerful

Chapter 887 It's Really Worth It
"As the head of the family, if you want to invite your friends to our house for dinner, don't you need the help of my mother, the wife of the head of the family?"

Hearing Bai Jinli's words, old man Bai's eyes lit up instantly.

Yes!

Mrs. Li is very capable now, and it would be fine to let her help out.

And since you want to invite others to eat at their house, you must make arrangements in advance, right?
Isn't the time he is planning to arrange just the time he spends with Mrs. Li.

Besides, he has already understood that the wives of the heads of the big families all hold the power in their hands.

"Girl, you're still smart, hey, I'll go talk to your mother about it right now."

Mr. Bai excitedly ran to find Mrs. Li.

Soon, it was settled that Mr. Bai invited all his friends to dinner at home.

The time is just seven days later, the place is Baifu, the participants, those old friends of old man Bai.

Besides them, old man Bai also inadvertently said that if those people are willing, they can also bring their wives with them.

Because Mr. Bai is thinking about it, Mrs. Li is still adjusting her status, it would be great if she could find some people to come over and talk to her.

Regarding this proposal, Mrs. Li has no objection.

Because she thinks it doesn't matter!

If the people who come can chat together, she will take the guests to play mahjong together, dance square dance together, and treat the girls at home to eat when they praise the girls together.

If you can't talk together, oh, feel free, whatever you like.

Mr. Bai is still very concerned about inviting friends to dinner.

Because his old buddies did put in a lot of effort in helping to find Mrs. Li.

It was also from that time that he knew that those old buddies of his were all well-known bigwigs in the Daqi Kingdom.

They used to be the pillars of the Great Qi Kingdom, but because they were old and far away from the hustle and bustle of officialdom, they chose to be idlers.

Bai Jinli hardly participated in these matters, and only occasionally offered ideas.

Most of them were decided after discussions between Mrs. Li and Mr. Bai.

Including the purchase of things and items, the rearrangement of the home, the arrangement of treating guests, etc...

Seven days passed in a flash, and in a blink of an eye it was the day when the guests came to the door.

It was the first time for Mr. Bai to undertake such a big event of receiving many friends, so he was inevitably a little nervous and indescribably excited.

On the other hand, Mrs. Li was as stable as Mount Tai.

Seeing that the time hadn't come yet, old man Bai beside him was so nervous that he couldn't fall asleep, he turned back and forth to bake the cake.

Granny Li immediately slapped Old Master Bai on the back of the waist, and he exclaimed in pain.

"Why are you nervous? Take a look at your inexperienced appearance. It's not time yet. Go on sleeping."

After finishing speaking, he couldn't help but pull the quilt for old man Bai, and closed his eyes again.

After being silent for two seconds, old man Bai stretched out his hand to embrace his old wife in his arms, and said with a hint of memory in his voice.

"Ailian, by the way, we have been married for more than 30 years, right?"

"Who would have thought that we would get to where we are today?"

"Hmm, what's going on today?" Mrs. Li snorted, but didn't push old man Bai away.

"Snuggle up to each other, support each other, respect each other, love each other."

"I didn't think so before, but since you disappeared last time, my heart feels empty. I can't eat or sleep, and I can't sleep. My mind is full of you."

"You when you first married me, you who had a hot temper when you were young, you who gave birth to my children, and you who worked hard to manage the family."

"It's a good thing you're fine, otherwise, I really don't know what to do."

Mrs. Li was also slightly moved when she heard Mr. Bai say these things.

Yes, time is so fast, just a flick of a finger.

In just a blink of an eye, she has become an old woman.

"Hmm, I haven't seen my daughter's child being born, I haven't seen my second child get married, and I haven't heard my granddaughter and grandson call me grandma, so I won't have any accidents."

"You old thing, why are you talking about this?"

Mrs. Li obviously thought of the situation on the day she was saved.

In the dark secret room, beside her was placed black powder that would explode at any moment, blowing people into pieces.

At that time, none of them knew that the thing was fake, so she was really, really scared.

The dark secret room was very quiet, there was no human voice, and the time was unknown, as if she was the only one left in the whole world.

For the first time, she felt the loneliness and helplessness all over the sky.

It was under such circumstances that Bai Jasmine came several times, and every time she came, she used the most vicious words to attack her.

She was hesitant, worried, afraid, lonely, and terrified.

She even thought about dying.

Just when she was about to be unable to hold on, and her inner faith was about to collapse, the door was kicked open.

With the opening of the door, the surrounding fire came into her sight.

At this moment, the old man Bai who had been insulted by her words for decades ran towards her with a soaring fire on his back.

Unable to adapt to the sudden bright light, her eyes narrowed uncomfortably.

A voice sounded next to my ear: "Brother Bai, don't go in, there is black powder inside, it's dangerous."

However, with her eyes closed, she saw the figure of old man Bai walking towards her without hesitation.

He heard his firm words without the slightest hesitation.

"That's my wife, my child's mother. I can't let something happen to her, otherwise, why should I be her man."

At that moment, old man Bai looked tall and majestic, like a mountain moving towards her.

Even the firelight behind him seemed to be shining with golden light, which reflected his ordinary face, which was extraordinarily handsome.

Grandma Li's heart was pounding, and tears were streaming down her cheeks.

The suffering and fear she had suffered these days disappeared in an instant, and the loneliness in her heart was instantly filled.

"Old lady, don't be afraid, I'll take you home, let's go home right away."

With trembling hands, old man Bai untied the rope on her body, and touched her cheek surprisingly gently, then picked her up and walked out.

"Old man, who told you to come, aren't you afraid?" Mrs. Li cried with tears running down her cheeks.

"I'm afraid, but I'm even more afraid of not having you in my future life."

Old man Bai held her for a whole walk of two cups of tea.

During this time, there was always the crackling sound of the ignited fire beside him, and there was even the danger of being blown to death.

But none of them felt afraid.

Mrs. Li told herself at this moment, it was worth it, this life was really worth it.

After walking out, I realized that the black powder that could kill people or even blow up the whole street was fake.

At that moment, old man Bai finally couldn't help heaving a sigh of relief, he gasped violently, and there were tears in the corners of his eyes.

These pictures seemed to be imprinted in Mrs. Li's mind and deeply frozen.

She thought that she would never forget these things for the rest of her life.

"Old woman, tell me, we have fulfilled the promise we made when we got married, and we will support each other until we grow old."

"Hmph, you're old." Li Pozi's tone was wet, and her voice was waxy like never before.

"Yes, yes, I am old, as if you are much younger than me."

"Look at your wrinkles, you're no less wrinkled than me... Hiss, what are you doing!"

Before Mr. Bai could finish his complaints, Mrs. Li pinched his waist fiercely, and he cried out in pain.

"Damn old man, don't you have a slap in the face for three days, right? What wrinkles? Where are the wrinkles?"

"...I was wrong, I was wrong." Old Master Bai repeatedly begged for mercy.

After the two of them made such a fuss, it was soon time to get up and freshen up.

Because she was going to receive guests today, Mrs. Li also had to go out to meet them, so both of them changed into brand new clothes after getting up.

After washing up, the two went to have breakfast with Bai Jinli and the others, and then instructed Lao Zhou to make various arrangements.

There should be a dedicated receptionist at the door.

Along the way, the family should arrange maids to help guide the way.

And the ducks and geese she raised are also guarded by special personnel to prevent them from running out and pecking guests.

In addition, there are room layouts for receiving guests that need to be checked again.

Pastries, refreshments, lunch menus, etc. must be prepared for the guests.

There are also anti-cold equipment, preparations for guests' entertainment, and so on.

Judging from the invitations posted earlier, there should be eight to nine old men who came to be guests.

If you add their family members, there are about 18 to [-] people.

These people are all famous nobles in the capital at any rate, and they are more particular, so when the time comes, men and women must be arranged separately.

It's about time, that is, around ten o'clock now, and guests are coming to the door one after another.

Mrs. Li sat in the room with Yan Shi, Bai Jinli and the others, waiting for guests to come. After all, they were all women.

Old man Bai went out and stood at the door to greet his old friends in person.

Carriages stopped at the entrance of the Baifu from time to time, and when the people on the carriages got off, the servants of the Baifu immediately arranged to put the carriages of the guests aside.

For those who came up, old man Bai warmly greeted them, and then arranged for someone to bring them into the mansion and sit them down.

Fearing that the guests would be bored if they came early, he and Mrs. Li specially invited someone to perform a shadow play.

There was a curtain between the men's and women's seats, and the room was burning with earth dragons, making it very hot.

Mrs. Li also asked someone to prepare some Mrs. Tang, just in case someone is afraid of the cold.

Not long after being seated, the shadow puppet show started, which surprised the guests.

In the past, when they were guests, they sat down and formed a group to find topics to chat and eat.

All kinds of hypocrisy, all kinds of indiscriminate flattery.

It's good to come here, there will be a shadow puppet show as soon as you come here.

It's all right, but the shadow puppet show is surprisingly good-looking, and it's even a version they haven't seen before.

When the shadow puppet show is shown, there are all kinds of fresh hot tea, cakes and fruits next to it.

Looking at the fresh red strawberries, everyone ate with great appetite.

I also tried the pastry, hey, it seems to be a new type of pastry from the snack shop, soft and sweet, not greasy, the kind that was quite expensive and hard to get in the past.

There is also the long strip of food that looks red next to it. Someone tried to take a bite, and suddenly felt that the thing was damn delicious.

Spicy, fresh and strong, chewing is very addictive, and the mouth is full of novel and exciting comfort.

(Actually, I suddenly felt that Mrs. Li was the one who was favored the most. In this life, she was flamboyant and self-willed, loved by her father-in-law, her son was filial, her daughter-in-law was gentle and virtuous, her daughter was smart and sensible, her grandchildren were well-behaved, and she was definitely a winner in life~)
