Chapter 169 Entertaining
"If Brother Qian wants to eat from now on, he can come to my house and eat as much as he wants." Xu Wenwu said.

Along the way, the Xu brothers and Qian Xuedong talked about some things in the village. Qian Xuedong also listened carefully to what the brothers said.

"Your family is really kind and righteous. Not only does it provide a living for the villagers, but it also provides money to build a school for the children in the village to study. There are not many families like yours." Qian Xuedong said.

Xu Wenwu said a few words of humility, and then Uncle Xu found a few people and said, "Wenwu, your grandma has already had the meals prepared. It's time to take Mr. Qian back to eat."

So a few people returned to the Xu family. The servants had already brought the food to the table, and the Xu family was waiting for them to return.

"Grandpa Xu, Grandma Xu, I'm really troubling you, cooking so many dishes to entertain Xuedong."

The old man said with a smile: "I'll just call you Xuedong. You have a good relationship with Wenwu and the others. I also heard from Xiaowu that you often helped their brothers in school, and I know your father, so you just You're welcome, come back often in the future."

Qian Xuedong said: "Okay, thank you, Grandpa Xu. I will come often in the future."

After everyone sat down, the old man brought out some blueberry wine, which was just suitable for the children to drink, but not too much.

"Xuedong, come and try my blueberry wine. It tastes sweet and not spicy at all." The old man said.

"Okay, I just saw your winery in the village. Brother Wenwu also said that the brewed Liu is very delicious. I didn't expect that I would be lucky enough to try it now." So Qian Xuedong was not polite and gave himself Pour a glass too.

"Grandpa Xu, Grandma Xu, and uncles and aunts, I would like to propose a toast to you first. Thank you for your hospitality." After saying that, he raised his head and drank the wine in the cup.

After the wine was down, Qian Xuedong said: "It is indeed a good wine. I have never seen such a delicious wine with this color. The taste is very mild."

"If Mr. Qian likes it, I can bring a jar of each item back later, so that Mr. Qian can try it too," the old man said.

"Thank you very much, Grandpa Xu, but I can't take this wine for free. I heard from Wen Wu that this wine has always been sold in the capital. It must be very expensive, so I gave the money to buy two jars back."

"Xuedong, you are out of touch when you say this. It's just two jars of wine. How can I take your money? You have a good relationship with Wenwu and the others. If you call me Grandpa Xu again, you will treat me as your grandfather." Take it as a gift to you!" the old man said.

"Brother Xuedong, since grandpa gave it to you, just accept it." Xu Wenwu also advised from the side.

"This...well, thank you very much, Grandpa Xu."

"You're just being polite, kid. Come on, let's eat the food first." The old man said with a smile.

Xiao Wu was also introducing the dishes on the table to Qian Xuedong. Some of them were developed by Qibao and tasted good. They were often seen on the table at home. However, this was the first time for Qian Xuedong to eat such dishes. He liked everything.

Not long after the meal, Qian Xuedong said goodbye and left. The old man also put a jar of each kind of wine back for him.

After sending Qian Xuedong away, the old man went to the place where the academy was being built. Several brothers also went to the mountain to practice, but Qibao did not go. She was relieved that even if her brothers and the others encountered something that they could not solve, they would be able to survive it. retreat.

Qibao felt that he had not seen the Twelve Guards for a long time, so he entered the mountain where they were training. He stood on the top of the mountain and looked at the 12 people on the mountainside. He saw that they were rushing towards the top of the mountain with all their strength. With a look of perseverance, even Manman gave up on his habit of crying easily before and worked hard to climb up.

Qibao nodded with satisfaction and stood there without moving, waiting for the 12 people.

The first one to climb up was Yueyang. He had the advantage of height. The last one was naturally full, but he had short legs, so there was nothing he could do, but he was still very powerful.

When the 12 people saw Qibao, their faces showed surprise. Qibao smiled and said: "I see that you are much stronger than before, and you seem to be a little taller."

"Yes, Miss, I feel less tired now when I climb up from the bottom of the mountain, and the time goes much faster. Master Xiaoling said that we are not literate yet, and the exercises can only be passed down orally. Miss, when can we learn how to read? The word?" Yue Xiao said expectantly.

Qibao said: "When the school is built, you will go to the school to read, practice martial arts here at night, and sleep here, so that your time will be very full." The 12 people also know that the places they stay now are different. It has never been dark before, and there are no other creatures on the entire mountain, not even a bug. But the lady didn't explain, it must be a secret. They only train and will never ask.

"Okay, let's listen to the lady."

After chatting with them for a while, Qibao left, but there was no room left. She planned to make some more pills to prepare, and then two cans of loquat ointment. The ones that came to He Jie's place were almost finished.

When my brother and the others came back in the evening, they were carrying several prey and a sika deer.

Xiaowu said: "Sister, we met the white wolves when we went up the mountain, and we even hunted with the wolves!"

Qibao said: "Then you guys are awesome."

Mrs. Wang took the prey from her grandson and planned to make a spicy rabbit in the evening.

Qibao came to the small pond in the courtyard and picked a few lotus flowers. After peeling off the lotus seeds, he picked the lotus flowers piece by piece and planned to make fried lotus flowers.

Qibao thought that lotus roots would be edible in a while. Her favorite foods were vinegared lotus root slices and lotus root clips.

……

Early the next morning, Qibao also followed the carriage to the town. She had not seen He Jie and his son since they were settled last time, and she did not know what He Jie's current situation was.

When Qibao brought Kuiwu to Leshan Pharmacy, shopkeeper Hong was at the counter helping people get medicine!

Mother He, who was still cleaning, saw Qibao and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Miss Benefactor is here! I'll go get you some water right now."

Qibao said quickly: "Auntie, please stop being busy. I'm not thirsty. I came here today to see if Mr. He is feeling better."

"Jie'er is doing very well, and her coughs are much less than before. Thanks to the medicine sent by the lady's family, you are the great benefactors of our mother and son!" Mother He said excitedly.

At this time, shopkeeper Hong also dealt with the matter at hand, came over and said, "The girl is here, let's go to the backyard to talk."

So the four of them went to the backyard, where He Jie was holding a book and looking at it carefully.

It wasn't until He's mother called him that he raised his head. After seeing Qibao, he quickly stood up and saluted: "So it's Miss Xu who's here!"

Qibao asked: "How are you today, Mr. He?"

He Jie said with a smile: "To be honest, I would like to thank the Xu family. If it weren't for the medicine sent by the Xu family, my cough would not have gotten better. My throat feels much better now, and I cough much less frequently than before."

Qibao told him that his complexion was indeed much better than before, and he was particularly energetic. He was much better than the sickly appearance before.

Qibao said: "I brought two more cans here today. After drinking them, I will almost be cured."

Kui Wu behind him quickly took out the loquat paste in his hand, and He's mother quickly took it.

"Thank you, miss. We, mother and son, don't know how to thank you." After saying that, Mother He wiped away tears, feeling extremely grateful to the Xu family.
