Chapter 1193 Look at Your Promise
The dinner table was packed to the brim. There were too many people and the table was not big enough, almost arm to arm.
The few guys who snatched food had even more reason to fight.
"I rely on Xue Qinglian, you hit me! You knocked me off on purpose! Rob you!"
"Liu Zhiqiu, if you want to steal the food from Lao Tzu's chopsticks, you should find a better excuse. It was your left hand that I hit, not your right!"
"Anyway, the food has been dropped, it must be your fault!..."
"I'll go! Uncle Lan, you despicable villain! That's what we saw first! Xue Qinglian, attack!"
"Aunt Hong! Couples, you guys! Save some! Save some!"
"Is this a meal or a fight? How decent!"
"Aman, eat first, the food will be gone later."
During the meal time, I kept hearing yelling, complaining, scolding, gnashing their teeth in anger, grabbing food and laughing wildly, making a scene.
This was the norm at the Liu family's dining table, so the elders forgot to stop them for a while, and inadvertently left the impression on Erdou'er who was already sensible at the dining table that they had to grab a meal.
As a result, after Liangdou'er grew up, he carried forward this tradition for decades, and even continued.
After dinner, the juniors moved the stools, chairs and recliners to the yard, and sat here after taking a bath to enjoy the coolness every day.
The night sky in the countryside is stunning.
The sky is full of twinkling stars, accompanied by the chirping of insects in the summer night and the cool breeze. This time of the day is a rare time for farmers to enjoy leisure.
People in a large courtyard sit together, talk about what comes to mind, gossip with parents, and exchange gossip.
Croton and Hongdou, who are curious about everything, crawl here and there when the adults are gossiping, and sometimes they are caught by the adults, and they pluck the hair on their little heads, making the children giggle.
"Brother Liu, sister-in-law, are you all at home? We're here to drop by!"
When night fell completely, Liu Jinfu's voice came from outside the courtyard.
Mr. Liu raised his voice, "Come in quickly, you'll know you're here when you hear the dog barking next door, and you'll tell the house, why haven't you been so polite before?"
Making people outside the courtyard laugh, Liu Jinfu walked in, followed by more than 20 people, all carrying ponytails in their hands and holding cool cattail fans, sitting down in the courtyard and immediately occupying half of the courtyard.
This brought together almost half of the gentlemen in the village.
"If it wasn't for the fear that there would be too many people to sit in the yard, the others would have to follow."
"Let them come, can't they still sit down? There is no room in the yard, and there is a gate. That road can accommodate as many people as you want."
"puff!"
In the farmyard, when enjoying the coolness at night, no lamps are used to save lamp oil.
Sitting in the yard, the moonlight is bright, enough for farmers.
Liu Jinfu and the village elders looked normal, but in fact they were extremely nervous. Finally, I saw the Empress Dowager and General Qin with my own eyes.
People are still alive, not dead, not dead.
"This is Mrs. Xiao, and this is Brother Qin. From now on, we will settle down in Xinghua Village." Mr. Liu made an introduction first, so as not to embarrass Liu Jinfu if he got excited.
"Old madam, old brother Qin...Okay, okay! From now on, you will settle down in our village, and you will all be your own people!" Liu Jinfu smiled and nodded, suppressing his excitement, but he couldn't suppress the choking in his throat.
A group of elders clenched their fists to hold on, not knowing what to do.
Ever since the news of the death of the Empress Dowager and Old General Qin, Xinghua Village has been in a downturn for a long time. The big pagoda tree at the entrance of the village is still full of people every day, but the old men and women are no longer as comfortable as they used to be when chatting.
It was a national funeral, not to mention the Empress Dowager, there were very few people who knew her well, but the weight of General Qin in the hearts of the common people was unquestionable. After the news of his death came out, many people could hear the crying.
That's still somewhere else, Xinghua Village is another very special exception compared to other places.
The Empress Dowager and General Qin both visited their village, and they even went to the fields, did farm work, and drank wine together with the two big shots. People in Xinghua Village value love, and after receiving the funeral report, it goes without saying that they are very sad.
This afternoon, Mr. Liu's family went door-to-door, and the information they secretly conveyed to everyone made everyone in every household so excited that they didn't have dinner, and they were waiting to come to visit in the evening and see them with their own eyes.
Now that I've seen it, it's confirmed, and Kong Xuan's heart is also relieved.
"It's so good, so good."
"In the future, the compound and our village will be even more lively."
"Is there enough space in the yard? There are more and more people, and I have to think about expanding it."
In a blink of an eye, the topic of the big guys turned to the construction of the Liu Family Courtyard.
The identities of the Empress Dowager and General Qin cannot be revealed, and they can only live in Xinghua Village as ordinary people in the future, but everyone knows that these two are definitely not ordinary people, and there is still a sense of oppression in terms of status, everyone Guys don't dare to chat and joke casually with these two big shots.
Therefore, it is safest to change the topic, and it is indeed the top priority of the Liu family compound.
Mr. Liu glanced at everyone with a smile, "I was just going to tell Jin Fu about this, but you guys brought it up first. Our yard still needs to be expanded, and we need to expand a few more small courtyards."
In the past, their Liu family compound was definitely enough to live in. There were only so many people in the family, and they couldn't live in the whole house.
It's just that no one thought that there would be more and more people.
Mrs. Liu has already done the calculations, "I'll see how many rooms we have to build... Qinglian will get married in the future, and she must have a separate small courtyard. Little Jinzi can't leave it behind, or when he comes back and sees that he is not alone. Don’t make trouble in the place? There’s also Mrs. Xiao’s, Brother Qin’s... oh my god, at least four more small courtyards have to be created!”
Four small courtyards are equivalent to another big courtyard of the Liu family!
"Old lady Xiao" snorted softly, "Look at how promising you are, four courtyards are a lot? Adding them together still doesn't..." It's not even half the size of her Hall of Mental Cultivation.
"It's not a question of whether there are too many or not. It's about expanding nearby. I'm afraid there won't be enough space." Mrs. Liu rolled her eyes.
"No, I have to be with Croton and Red Dou. Besides, if it is built next to it, who will cook for me?"
Looking at the silver-haired old lady's upright and confident posture, Mrs. Liu was so angry that her teeth itch, she was really spoiled!
"Okay, okay, you can live in the compound, at worst let Zhixia and Zhiqiu live outside, okay?"
"This plan works."
"..." She just looked at her old lady alone, without even an old lady serving her, otherwise she would definitely not be used to her!
Mrs. Liu hums, she has a good heart.
And the noble lady is really pitiful now, think about the past when she was pampered and pampered by a bunch of slaves around her...
Forget it, if she doesn't care about her, the lady will starve to death.
