Chapter 951: Making a Bouquet Out of a Bad Hand!
utting makeup on Línláng and Shānhú was told by Cháng Māmāmā, who went to Shānhú's place to help.Li Laotai was increasingly satisfied, and asked Tao Hongying, "Hongying, what do you think of this girl...Once the dust settled, the top scholar came from the Li family.
Such a joyous occasion, of course, deserves to be celebrated with great fanfare.
Tianwu's literary style flourished, and everyone took pride in reading.
If one were to gain promotion and wealth, and publicize the good fortune, it could easily lead to criticism.
But this high school champion, didn't celebrate in a big way, the court and the people probably found it strange!
Such a joyous occasion, how could we possibly celebrate it without making a big fuss!
The whole Li family was busy preparing for the celebration feast.
It's the same over at Suijintan Beach. It's bustling with activity, slaughtering pigs and sheep, with smoke billowing everywhere from the effort.
As the eldest son of an earl, Jiaren's wedding naturally had to be held at the earl's manor.
Li Lao'er, as a father, was beaming with joy. He welcomed and saw off guests who came to celebrate his son's marriage, his mouth almost splitting into a grin.
Liu Zhiheng, Xing sir, and Mr. Peng all arrived early to help.
The Lord was also present in the mansion, presiding over the guests and engaging them in conversation.
On the village side, Li Lao San and Li Lao Si were hosting the elders and relatives of four villages.
Compared to these guests from the city who are concerned with etiquette and attentiveness, villagers are much more down-to-earth. A big bowl of meat and a big bowl of wine are enough to satisfy everyone, making them smile and feel content.
Jia Yin had helped her sister-in-law busy for most of the day. Seeing the sun set in the west, she wanted to rush back to Suijin Beach.
Mr. Wen finally returned, dusty and weary.
Perhaps the incompetent older brothers in his family almost ruined his talented disciple's path to success, causing Mr. Wen to feel too much self-blame.
In just a few days, Mr. Wen had lost a lot of weight, and wrinkles appeared around his eyes.
Luckily, I heard that Jiale ended up as the top student in his high school class. That let him breathe a sigh of relief, otherwise he was afraid he'd never be able to face the Li family again.
Let others remain in ignorance, but as his teacher, he knows all too well the hardships Jiaren endured for this day.
This child, because he is missing two fingers on his right hand, has to start from scratch practicing with his left hand. He also has to study as diligently as anyone else. The effort he puts in is simply double what others do.
Moreover, Li's starting point was low. Compared to those scholars from prestigious families, Jiaren was naturally born with fewer accumulations than others.
It can be said that, a hand of cards that was clearly terrible for everyone to see, was somehow turned into a winning hand by this child!
Jiarren felt sorry for the teacher, seeing her so haggard. He quickly stepped forward to pay his respects and then personally helped the teacher inside.
"Teacher, you've worked hard all the way. I was worried about you and afraid you wouldn't make it back in time for the family gathering, luckily you're back now. Hurry up and wash up and change your clothes, everyone at home is waiting to have a drink with you."
Mr. Wen was touched and patted his arm gently, without saying much.
At this point, the outsiders had long since left, and only family members and close friends remained.
Because Mrs. Wen was bringing the children, she went to Quanzhou with Old Madam Li and others.
Therefore, Mr. Wen often stayed over at Li Lao Er's place with him in his spare time.
The Li family also put out his clothes, shoes and socks. Even the new season's clothes they had prepared for a few days ago were brought to him with two sets.
Today, a brand new indigo long robe was found and given to Wen Hai to help Master Wen wash up and dress.
Mr. Wen appeared in the hall again, his appearance finally changed. He looked less haggard.
Everyone urged him to take a seat, but he first bowed and apologized to Li Lao'er and the others.
What happened at the examination hall was sudden, he was both anxious and angry, so he took his family away immediately.
After that, Jia Ren took an exam. As his teacher, he couldn't be there to guide and help him, which filled him with guilt.
The Lee family held no resentment towards Mr. Wen at all. They had met on the road of escape many years ago, and throughout those years, he had dedicated himself to teaching Jiaren, fulfilling almost the responsibility of a father.
The Li family could only feel grateful; how could they forget years of friendship because of a small matter
Li Lao'er quickly helped him up and sat down.
Jiarén and Lǐgé'er even knelt down and kowtowed, thanking Mr. Wēn for his teachings.
For a time, everyone aired their misunderstandings and knots in their hearts.
Then Wan'er hurriedly went back to the banquet with her maidservant. Everyone, including Master Wen, ate a little less, but the atmosphere was still lively and joyful.
Seeing this, Jiayin felt relieved. Before the city gate closed, she hurried back to Suijin Beach.
As always, Mu Xu drove the carriage with Ye Shan accompanying him. Shui Ling and Shui Yun served on either side, and the people at home were not worried about Jia Yin's safety.
In the village, the big stove was still steaming hot, and the aroma of the pork slaughtering vegetables wafted far away.
The village head and Uncle Zhao, accompanied by the heads of each village, had been drinking until their faces were flushed red.
Seeing Jia Yin return, the villagers of Xincun didn't wait for the village head to give orders. They spontaneously stepped forward and formed two lines of people, blocking all the relatives from other villages outside.
This is to prevent anyone from getting drunk and making a fool of themselves, possibly bumping into Jia Yin.
Jia Yin also knew everyone's good intentions. After chatting with them for a few words, she went into the backyard.
Li Laosan and Li Laosi were both drunk and were already sound asleep on the kang.
Fortunately, Li Yong remained sober and was sipping tea to sober up, waiting for the villagers outside to disperse.
Jia Yin hurried back, Li Yong also felt relieved, chatted a few words and went to sleep.
That night, at the third watch, everyone dispersed.
Because the next day was to watch the champion Jia Ren ride a horse through the streets, the village head and others also hurried to sleep.
The village, which had been noisy all day, finally fell silent...
The next morning, the Li family gathered around the dining table for breakfast. Li Lao San hesitated for a moment and said to Jia Yin, "Funiu'er, do you still have some better corn seeds or potatoes at your place
"Both Jiarren and Lig'er are renowned figures in the underworld. This is great news."
I asked some friends who do business in the city, and they said that when big families encounter this kind of thing, most of them would go to the temple to add incense and oil money, or offer porridge and medicine.
But I thought about it, neither of those things were suitable for our family. However, spring planting is just around the corner now. If we could spare some good seeds, the villagers would be delighted, and we'd have plenty more grain at harvest time.
Jia Yin didn't expect that her quiet Uncle San could come up with such a good idea.
As you can see, over the past few years managing the college cafeteria has made Sanbo grow a lot. He's no longer the silent and taciturn farmer he used to be.
She quickly smiled and replied, "Good idea, Uncle Three! I have some special seeds here, which yield at least 10% more food than ordinary ones. Uncle Three, how many do you need I'll get them ready for you."
Li Laosì also patted his elder brother's shoulder and smiled, "Third brother is still the most thoughtful. I can't be bothered to ponder these things."
“You are a man of great deeds, slaying many barbarians and quickly reclaiming our homeland. I am the most useless among us, such small matters I can handle.” Li Lao San spoke sincerely, with not a hint of jealousy towards his brother.
"What are you talking about, Third Brother" Li Laosi glared and retorted. "With neither you nor Second Brother around to hold down the fort at home, how could Big Brother and I have any time to go out"
Li Laosan smiled foolishly and said nothing more.
After some discussion, it was decided to take out 20,000 jin of seeds. Each farmer who wanted them would be limited to ten jin.
Ten kilograms of corn seeds are enough to plant two mu of land. In autumn, an extra 10% of grain would be at least three or four hundred kilograms, enough to support two people.
Jia Yin Naturals is fully supportive. Before she had nothing to do, she planted several batches of corn in the space. Now she has accumulated hundreds of thousands of kilograms.
If it weren't for the worry of being too gaudy, I wouldn't hesitate to say 20,000 pounds, even 200,000 pounds!
