The farm cook is very prosperous

Chapter 119 The Sudden Blessing (1)
"This..." Looking at Mei Xiang, who was standing aside with her head bowed and unable to see her expression, the old lady couldn't help showing embarrassment on her face. This girl is good at everything but a bit arrogant. After talking about this matter, I didn't expect to hit the board with Song Yicheng.Could it be... his eyes couldn't help but glanced at Chun Niang who was sitting on the other side, and saw her sitting there like an old monk in meditation, completely expressionless, as if they had been talking for a long time, but it was none of her business.The only explanation now is that the grandson doesn't like Mei Xiang, but what Song Yicheng likes, she is getting more and more confused as an old woman, and it's so difficult for us to ask him to take in a room.

"Grandmother, don't worry. I'm going to Beijing with Chun'er this time. Grandmother is afraid that no one will take care of her grandson. It's getting late, and Chun'er and I won't disturb grandma's rest here. Grandmother is good to rest." , grandson is coming to say hello tomorrow morning." After Song Yicheng finished speaking, he pulled Chunniang to salute together before retreating.

After Song Yicheng left, the old lady took Mei Xiang's hand reluctantly and said in a deep voice, "It seems that we two don't have this fate."

When Mei Xiang heard what the old lady said, she knelt down on the ground with a thump and begged, "It's the old lady who praised Mei Xiang. Mei Xiang is a person with poor fortune. She can't stand the favor of the third son. She just wants to serve the old lady for the rest of her life." around."

"Silly boy, I'm an old woman who has stepped into sixty years, and I still have a few years to live. What are you doing with me? I was reluctant to let you go out. I stayed for a few more years, but now I find that I can't be too selfish." , don’t worry, I won’t treat you badly in anything.”

"Old lady..."

"Go, I'm tired." The old lady waved her hand, showing a faint tiredness, obviously unwilling to continue the conversation.

"Chun'er, come here and have a look, this is a cloak specially made for you by the people from Jinyifang." Song Yicheng asked someone to present a fiery red fox collar cloak.

In order to match the fox collar of this cloak, the whole cloak is also made of fine maroon brocade cloud patterns. The red color of the whole body looks pleasing and beautiful.

"It's so beautiful. I haven't seen you give me such a nice cloak before." Chunniang said while admiring the cloak in front of the bronze mirror, and looking at Song Yicheng in the mirror.

"Aren't we going to Beijing? I prepared it for you. Although it's spring, the weather in Beijing is still much colder than in Yun County."

"It seems that you are more thoughtful than me." This cloak really looks more and more beautiful, it is really hard to put it down.

"I must have been to the capital a few times, so I still know a little bit. But you may have to worry about some things yourself. I have read the almanac with my father. 28 is a good day. We will set off that day, and there are still a few days left. You should plan carefully." Fan, if you really can't think of it, you can just bring more money, there is a post station on the road, we will take the official route, and there will be no major problems." Song Yicheng knew that Chunniang had never traveled far, so when arranging this trip, he tried his best to Tell me in detail so that the parties don't know anything.

"Okay, I get it. I will try my best to make arrangements to satisfy you, Mr. Xiang." She had already planned to set off lightly. As for the number of people, besides Song Wu, it is enough to bring one or two maids by her side to serve her. Bring some daily medicines, and other things, as Song Yicheng said, the key is to bring enough money when going out.

Just when everyone was preparing for the third son to go to Beijing, an imperial decree came quietly.

Du Zhixian, the magistrate of Yun County, led a large number of officers and soldiers directly knocked on the gate of the Song Mansion.

"Quickly inform your master, old lady, third son, and most importantly, your third young mistress, to submit a case to accept the imperial edict." A yamen servant shouted loudly at the porter who opened the house.

"Little one, I'll go right away." As soon as he finished speaking, he ran into the inner hall in a hurry.

"Following the emperor's imperial edict, the Song family, Li Yuchun, has both ability and political integrity, and will benefit all people..." A palace servant wearing the clothes of a servant in the palace read out in front of the hall with his shrill voice.

"Specially appointed as the county lord of Shun'an, and given a county lord's mansion, 5000 taels of silver, [-] acres of fertile land, and [-] pieces of silk, hereby!"

What, no way, the most she supplies to the court is those corn seeds. Is it because of this reason that she has been named a county head? This is too simple.

"Master Shun'an, don't hesitate to thank me and accept the order." said Li Yuchun, who was lying on the ground with a smile on his face.

Song Yicheng, who was kneeling beside him, touched Li Yuchun who was still dreaming without showing any trace, and woke Li Yuchun up with his eyes.

"Thank you, thank you Lord Longen." Li Yuchun stepped forward to receive the order and shouted loudly.The people behind also responded one by one.

"Please get up." The Chief Inspector responded to the crowd.

"Master Shun'an, this is Eunuch Cao who is beside the Empress Dowager." Prefect Du stepped forward to introduce Li Yuchun.

"Oh, Eunuch Cao, it's really hard for you, come in and have a glass of water and wine, and rest for a while."

"No need, the miscellaneous family has to go back to Beijing to renew the order. If it is convenient for the county master, can you take a moment to speak." Eunuch Cao's voice became smaller and smaller.

"Oh, Eunuch, please." Li Yuchun led Eunuch Cao to the pavilion in the courtyard.

Eunuch Cao looked around and made sure that there was no one there. He said, "The second prince asked the servant to tell you a message. He will never forget the kindness of saving your life last time. I hope that you will not let him take care of you during this trip to the capital." It's good to be disappointed."

This sudden offering made Chun Niang and the others who were originally going to Beijing had to postpone their trip to Beijing.

A big pie fell from the sky, and she changed from a commoner to a county lord in a daze. On the surface, it was because Chun Niang donated corn seeds free of charge to solve the people's livelihood problems, but from Eunuch Cao's words, Chun Niang The mother guessed that this award had a great connection with the second prince.

The old ladies and members of the Song family were all immersed in the joy of this big seal, and for the first time, they pressed a longevity tablet for Li Yuchun and put it in the ancestral hall.There was an endless stream of people visiting the door every day, and the water table was set up for three days, which was much more lively than when Chun Niang married into the Song family. As the granddaughter-in-law of the Song family and the only party involved in the compensation incident, she was busier every day. It is not touching the ground.

The county magistrate's mansion bestowed by the emperor is not far from the Song family. I heard that it was a county magistrate's mansion before. Chun Niang took a sneak peek to have a look. The place is astonishingly large, as big as three Song families. The towers, pavilions, rockery and stone forest made Li Yuchun, who grew up in the modern age, admiring the ancient life. Even a multi-millionaire would not be able to afford this house in the modern age.For such a big house, I still need to buy some servants to come back to clean it up, the courtyard wall in the backyard also needs to be repaired, a lot of decorations need to be added to the room, and the trees in the garden also need to be taken care of by a special person. The monthly expenses should not be small, right? The 5000 taels bestowed by the emperor may not last long.Then do I need to open several restaurants to support my mansion?
