Chapter 300
With so many people here, the spacious kitchen was immediately bustling, and it seemed a little crowded.

Mrs. Liu is a person who can talk and winks. Seeing that there are many people working, she asks Mrs. Fang to sit aside.

"The younger brothers and sisters are able-bodied people, so just sit and watch us work. If we really can't see it, we can benefit a lot with just a few words."

"Look, the second daughter-in-law is still good at speaking, we really have to ask our younger siblings to teach us a little bit more."

(Years ago, Mrs. Li sent a letter to discuss with her eldest son, and officially straightened Mrs. Li. Mrs. Li is now considered the grandma of the eldest family of the Meng family, and she speaks more confidently than before.)
After listening to what their sisters-in-law had to say, Mrs. Fang didn't try to be overbearing, and sat obediently aside, occasionally mentioning a few words, and let them do it by themselves at other times.

The Liu family all came out of the gate of the mansion, and they knew what dishes to cook for tonight's New Year's Eve dinner at a glance.

Fang Shi also said to them at the right time, "tonight we will cook braised fish, steamed chicken, sauced elbow flowers, Sixi meatballs, steamed meat in a bowl, fried day lily, fried fungus, stir-fried clams, and spicy fried octopus, Seafood platter, a total of ten dishes, the last is a spinach vermicelli soup."

Hearing Fang's casually mentioning the name of the ten dishes and one soup, everyone present was greatly touched.

Mrs. Liu was the first to answer, "Sisters and sisters, it's not easy to cook these dishes in this icy and snowy place. Especially in this weather, we can still eat spinach. We are lucky."

It's no wonder Mrs. Liu said that. When they came in just now, Mrs. Liu saw spinach and leeks in two large wooden basins. Upon closer inspection, they were all freshly picked.

Mrs. Liu knew that Second Uncle's courtyard had a warm shed, so she never took it to heart.When the Duke's Mansion was not down, a greenhouse was also built in the village.

She just heard about it, but never actually saw it.

But when Zhuangtou of Zhuangzi came to the mansion to answer, she also met him once.

The head of the farm said that the management of the greenhouse was extremely difficult. From what she heard, vegetables with green leaves could be grown in winter, they were all capable people or great craftsmen.

Now, what she saw seemed to be different from what she heard in the Duke's mansion, and she couldn't help but make up her mind.

However, she had long been preconceived in her heart, thinking that as long as what the second uncle's family did was right, then she would be right to listen to what the second uncle said.

If Grandpa Meng knew what this niece and daughter-in-law thought, he would not dare to speak easily in the future.

When Qi Yuanshan hurried back with Wang Dabao and his friends, he saw Qi Xi and Qi Ge standing outside the gate of Meng's house, looking towards them.

When Qi Xi and Qi He saw the man on the horseback, they shouted in unison: "Father."

"Uncle Yuanshan."

"Eh, eh."

Facing the wind and dust along the way, facing the howling north wind, the eyebrows and hair were covered with layers of frost.

Qi Yuanshan felt that his face was frozen and his mouth was frozen, but when he saw his son's smiling face, he felt that everything was worth it.

He turned his head and told the people following him to go back to their homes.

"Order."

Wang Dabao took the lead and ran away, Xiao Linzi and the others followed closely.

Seeing them all run away, Qi Yuanshan took his son and nephew into the Meng family compound.

From a distance, everyone could see that the smile on Qi Yuanshan's face was a bit weird.

It was Grandpa Meng who was well-informed and told him to come in quickly and get on the kang to keep warm.

This time, Qi Yuanshan was not polite at all, he quickly took off his shoes and got on the kang.

"Hmm~" A cup of hot tea poured in, and Qi Yuanshan patted his face lightly, and said, "Uncle, my face can move freely at last."

Grandpa Meng thought of Qi Yuanshan's appearance when he came in, so he couldn't help reminding him: "Yuanshan, you are still riding outside on horseback in such a cold weather, you should wear a hood and a scarf outside."

"Uncle." Qi Yuanshan also has these things, and they were given by Fu Xinci.

It's just that these days are too busy, and he doesn't care about it at all.

"Early this morning, I hurried back before dawn, and even forgot about it. After running for a few miles, the north wind blew on my face like a knife, so I remembered , there are still good things that are useless."

"Then why don't you go back and get it?"

"Uncle, Dabao and Xiaolinzi don't have any, so I'm going to go back and get them." From Qi Yuanshan's point of view, they are all brothers who lived and died with him, and it doesn't matter if he freezes for a while.

Grandpa Meng: What else can he say.

Still, it's a big deal.Grandpa Meng thought for a while, but couldn't help but ask, "When are you going back to the Thousand Households, Yuanshan?"

"Uncle, I plan to go back in the evening of the third year of junior high school. After all, there can't be no one there for a long time."

"Okay." The old man has already made up his mind, leaving this matter to his granddaughter.

Fu Xinci: What else can she say besides saying that she is extremely honored.

When Lao Jin came over, he saw Qi Yuanshan sitting in the kang talking with his second uncle in the yard.

Yes, everyone heard that right, he is now calling Second Uncle along with Zhong Shi.

Fu Xinci looked at the people in the yard as if they were busy. The men gathered in the grandfather's house, talking about what they were most interested in this year, and their outlook for the coming year.

Some people keep suggesting, and some people keep adding.

The voices of grandfather's good words are also increasing, and the laughter is getting higher and higher. Through the glass window, Fu Xinci can feel the joy of his old man.

On the other side of the kitchen, the women were also chatting loudly.Fu Xinci found out today that it was Mrs. Liu who had the loudest voice.

Damn, she really didn't see it before.

In the whole yard, it seemed that only Fu Xinci had nothing to do, wandering around the yard with Han Xue.

Han Xue felt that it was almost time to go shopping, so she reminded her in a low voice: "Girl, it's quite cold outside, let's go back."

"I just want to sleep when I get home."

Han Xue was also surprised, "Ms. Mingming went to bed early last night, but she still looks like she hasn't woken up today."

Can Fu Xinci say that she has worked as a laborer for half the day?

It was Han Xue who knew that she was thinking about her own girl. Seeing that the girl really couldn't lift her spirits up, she secretly gave the girl some advice: "Girl, if you are really sleepy, go back to the room and sleep for a while. The servants saw that they were all talking happily. , I may not be able to think of the girl in a while."

Fu Xinci was very satisfied with Han Xue's proposal, without saying anything, she quietly took Han Xue back to the small building where she lived.

Han Xue quickly helped the girl take off her coat, Fu Xinci kicked off her shoes, and then lay down directly on the pillow.

Seeing Han Xue help her cover the quilt in a haze, she forced herself to say: "I will wrap you a big red envelope tomorrow." Then she would go to Duke Zhou.
