I'll be a nanny for the lord

Chapter 1416

Mr. Lu became more and more speechless.

He thought Xia Ying was arrogant enough to be shameless, but only now did he realize that Gu Tuo was not too shy!
Once out of the big environment of the armory, this man, who was usually taciturn and only focused on dealing with various weapons, changed completely. His self-righteous and ostentatious virtues simply made him amazed.

However, Mr. Lu could only be amazed.

After all, Xia Ying is indeed a capable person.Just look at how she has opened a Qianjin Bookstore from Jiangbian Province in the south to the capital these years, and now it has developed from the capital to Ningzhou City, which is enough to prove that she is down-to-earth and practical.

And now Xia Ying is not even 30 years old!
What this woman has done is simply admirable.

Gu Tuo would be proud to have such a capable wife, he completely understands.

If he had such a powerful female relative in his family, he would have been showing off everywhere!

The people above were chatting in low voices, and the line waiting for the soup below slowly got longer and longer.

Seeing that the two pots of soup are coming to an end, there are still so many people waiting to drink the soup!
Sister Fu turned her eyes, and she turned around and ordered: "Bring out the new one!"

"okay!"

Immediately, the four tall and strong servants came out in twos, and a group of people came out again carrying a cauldron full of mutton and scorpion soup!

The pot was placed on the stove, and the fire was simmering for a while, and the soup immediately boiled, spreading a new round of rich fragrance to a farther place.

Lu Zongbing saw this scene in his eyes, and now he is completely convinced of Xia Ying.

"Madam Ronghua is really kind! You really prepared so much soup when you said it was for the poor people. See, old man, are you really planning to give everyone a share today?"

Xia Ying smiled and nodded. "Of course, I always keep my word. Today's soup, everyone who sees it will have a share!"

Moreover, she doesn't need to pay for so many soups, so she is even more happy to be such a good person!
Listen to the movement below, all the people who got the soup and are waiting for the soup, but everyone is praising her as a kind person!

After this incident, Qianjin Bookstore's image of serving the people wholeheartedly has been established here in Southwest!
Mr. Lu looked down from the window and saw the long queue of common people below.Although the cold wind is howling, everyone's face is filled with happy smiles. This is the enthusiasm of ordinary people for life that no amount of cold weather can stop.

He couldn't help feeling a lot in his heart.

"We have been stationed in the southwest for so many years, and we have fought so many battles with the Yi people, big and small. Isn't it just to let the common people live like this?"

As a result, he worked hard for so long, but he never looked back.Now it is thanks to Xia Ying's blessing that he has seen the life of ordinary people.

Xia Ying smiled and said: "Indeed. Thanks to Mr. Lu, you have led your troops well and maintained the stability and smoothness of the southwest territory these years, so that the common people can have a good meal. I also have the opportunity to come here to open this bookstore, Doing such good deeds and gaining such a good reputation. So, next, my man will definitely do his best to upgrade your weapons to the best for Ding Xijun. I will also do my best to let the common people here live happily , The children also have hope in life.”

Lu Zongbing suddenly felt a little sour around his eyes.

What Xia Ying said just now really touched his heart!
It's hard for this little lady to be so high-profile and comfortable, but at this time of glory, she hasn't forgotten to give her credit.

He even heard what Xia Ying said: What she is doing now is actually adding to the merits of what she has done!

With her words, he felt that all his efforts in this life were worth it!
"Hey! Seeing how happy these people are, I want to drink a bowl of this sheep and scorpion soup." Lu Zongbing sighed softly.

"It's easy! I've already prepared it!" Xia Ying immediately clapped her hands.

General Lu was taken aback.

Gu Tuo couldn't help laughing and said, "Your Excellency, you don't think that my wife's statement that everyone is equal is a lie, right? Although she still can't share the same clothes and food with the poor people, it is so important today. On special occasions, we must eat the same things as the common people. It’s just that the common people bring the soup back home, or just drink it directly, or cook noodles and porridge, that’s their own business But here, how to eat this soup depends on my wife."

He couldn't help looking at Xia Ying with hope.

Xia Ying immediately raised her chin proudly. "Of course we eat meat in this soup! I even asked someone to buy some fresh vegetables for me. This dish is very precious!"

The southwest is still more westward. In winter, the wind and sand are heavy, and water cannot be stored, so once it is late autumn, vegetables are rare commodities, and they can be sold for dozens of copper coins!This is something that only wealthy people can eat.

Xia Ying was not willing to spend money to buy it before.It was still today, the bookstore was overjoyed at its opening, and she knew that General Lu was coming to support her, so she gritted her teeth and spent a lot of money to buy a few handfuls of fresh vegetables.

This is what she used to entertain distinguished guests!
Chief Lu raised his eyebrows. "What kind of food is this? The old man has never heard of it!"

"You'll know after a while." Xia Ying had a mysterious look on her face.

Gu Tuo said: "Lord Chief Soldier, just rest assured. The food made by my wife will definitely not taste bad. We just need to wait and enjoy the delicious food in peace!"

Bai Shi on the side also nodded quickly. "That's right! Yingniang knows how to eat! We have been with her for the past six months, but we have eaten a lot of good things with her!"

The members of the Ningzhou branch of Qianjin Bookstore also nodded.

Gu Tuo is still very reliable.In addition, with so many people guaranteeing Xia Ying, Mr. Lu immediately felt relieved.

Let alone Lu Zongbing, even Guan Xiaowei and others couldn't help but start to shine their eyes when they heard these words.

They have already been tossed about by the big pot of food in the military camp, and a bird has almost faded out of their mouths.They are also eager to eat something good as soon as possible!
Since Zongbing Lu had already mentioned that he wanted to eat, Xia Ying naturally didn't delay much.She quickly asked someone to bring some small earthenware pots, and there was a small red clay stove under the pots, and the red charcoal fire in the stove was burning blazingly.

Put the earthenware pot in front of everyone, and then lifted the lid, a strong smell of mutton, which is exactly the same as the one coming from the bottom, hits the face.

This is really exactly the same as the thing cooked in the big pot below!
