On the eighth day of August, it is advisable to move into a house.
As soon as the auspicious time arrived in the early morning, song Xintong took the twins and took the lead in walking into the courtyard with the jar of rice and money, followed by Xie's family and he's talent who came to help and came in carrying things.
Because the villagers were invited to the greenhouse today, song Xintong put the money and other important things away and came out of the second courtyard. He locked the entrance and then went to the kitchen.
"Xintong, it's right for you to lock up. You'd better put all the good things in the front yard in the back." He er's aunt, who is cleaning the pot, said.
"There was nothing good, so I set up the tables and chairs." Song Xintong embarrassed smile, accelerated the action on the hand, "also don't know how many people will come, do so many meters enough?"
Aunt Xie said, "I'm afraid those people who are greedy for bargains will bring their families all together. Let's make more coarse cereals steamed bread and steamed rice. I'm afraid 100 Jin rice is not enough. Anyway, you have enough meat and vegetables. Where can those people remember to eat these rice when they eat meat?"
Song Xintong also thinks that there are more than 80 households in the village, with a total of about 800 people. Besides those who have gone out to work, I'm afraid there are also about 500 people.
"It's all up to my aunt."
"Here we are. Xintong, go out and greet the villagers. " Cried old lady Qiu.
"Well." Song Xintong saw that the preparation had been almost done, so he took off his apron and went to the front yard.
The courtyard outside the main hall of the front yard has a small acre of open space, all covered with bluestone, so it is clean and tidy.
He Er Shu's family helped to put all the borrowed tables and chairs in the yard. After a squeeze, there were 20 tables.
"Xintong, is that ok?" He Er Shu asked.
"OK, uncle he, second uncle, and a few brothers." Song Xintong said busily, "sit down for a while and have a cup of tea."
"No, just now I watched Wan village head and they came. Please go to the kitchen to help your aunts Uncle he led a group of men around to the kitchen.
Song Xintong looked at the twins in new clothes, his face filled with joy, "go, two little male masters, follow elder sister to meet the guests."
The twins covered their mouths and laughed, "we are the host's house. We are going to meet the guests."
Song Xintong said with a smile, "village head Wan, you are here. Please come inside quickly."
Village head Wan handed the gift money to song Xintong, and then went inside.
"Xintong, your house is very well built." The village head's wife looked at the Grand Courtyard and said, "Oh, my eyes are too much."
"No, it's all paved with bluestone. You don't have to worry about mud splashing on rainy days." "It's very nice," exclaimed Wan's eldest daughter-in-law
"It's nice that there are balustrade chairs under the eaves. There are flowers planted there."
"It's beautiful."
Song Xintong was so elated by the endless stream of praise that he said, "let's sit inside."
"Xintong, your house is really big. There are more than ten houses, all of which are green bricks and tiles. How much will it cost?" Someone asked, "at least fifty or sixty-two?"
Song Xintong faintly smiles and doesn't answer. It took her more than 300 Liang to build such a house, which is based on the money saved by master Hong.
"What's that back lock?" Someone asked about the door into the back yard.
"Back door." Song Xintong said, "let's take a seat first. There will be too many people later. We can only eat two rounds of noodles."
When they heard this, they did not ask any more. They went to find a table and sat down, but they were all discussing the sound of the big house.
Gradually, there was no room for sitting in the yard. Many people sent gifts and went home to work, waiting for the second round.
"Xintong, Mrs. Zhang is here." He Baiyun, who had been helping to greet the guests, trotted over and whispered, "do you want to go and have a look in person?"
Song Xintong looked in the direction of the screen wall and found that Mrs. Zhang's family were sitting on the stool at the edge, looking from east to west.
"You don't know what they sent, so you sent a handful of vegetables. The whole family came, bang." He Baiyun said discontentedly.
Some people in the village come more, so they give more.
Some people send two eggs, and one or two people come to the family.
But it doesn't matter. Song Xintong doesn't expect these people to give gifts to make money. "Don't worry about them, as long as they don't make trouble."
"Well, I'll keep an eye on them." He Baiyun said: "there are still some children who are looking around. Fortunately, you have foresight and didn't open the back yard, otherwise it would be a bad thing."
Song Xintong smiles. There are so many bears in the village. How can she not guard against them?
Song Xintong looked around, "can you see Mr. Lu?"
He white cloud Leng for a while, this just reaction come over, she said is who, "you also invited Lu Xiucai?"
"Well." Song Xintong nodded.
"The Lu family seldom attend the banquets in the village. I'm afraid he won't come." He Baiyun said.
Yesterday, Lu Yunkai answered. Song Xintong didn't think he was the kind of person who didn't keep his promise. "I'll go to the gate and have a look."
Just walked to the gate, song Xintong saw Lu Yunkai holding a pot of flowers came.
Song Xintong's secret way is worthy of being Lu Fu Zi. The gifts he gives are of good taste.
"Master Lu, you are here. I want to invite you again." Song Xintong said.
Lu Yunkai approached and handed the potted plants to song Xintong. "This is for you."
Looking at the potted plants, song Xintong's eyes lit up and jumped up with excitement, "ah, Master Lu, you are really my lucky star! My benefactor
Song Xintong's incoherent words provoked the villagers to look at them.
Seeing that he was so excited, Lu Yunkai raised his hand and clenched his fist against his lips. He coughed twice. "Miss Song, don't be so excited."
Song Xintong realized that he was too excited to forget himself. He said with a smile, "this is a good baby. Thank you, Mr. Lu."
"Just like it." Lu Yunkai nodded slightly, which was not in vain that he had been looking for Lingnan city for a long time.
Song Xintong would like to suppress, "Lu Fu Zi, you sit inside first, and I'll talk about this pepper with Lu Fu Zi when I'm free."
Lu Yunkai took a look at the pepper. It was really a coincidence.
"Master Lu, please follow me in." Song Xintong led Lu Yunkai into the flower hall, and then whispered, "it's half an hour before dinner. You can have a cup of tea first. If you feel bored, you can go to the rear yard to hide."
Lu Yunkai raised his eyes and saw that song Xintong had no different look. He chuckled from the bottom of his heart. How could he easily invite a man from outside to the inner courtyard? Taking the white tea cup beside her hand, she said in a warm voice, "no, I'll just sit here for a while. Miss Song is busy with you."
"Good." Song Xintong took two steps out with the hot pepper potted plant, and then came back to look at Lu Yunkai with a smile, "if you need anything, please call me, don't be polite with me."
Song Xintong's modern enthusiasm makes passers-by outside the flower hall think more.
But song Xintong didn't know. He just felt that his hospitality would make Lu feel at home. Then he walked towards the backyard with chili pepper in his arms. After Haosheng put it away, he left the yard and locked the door again.
There were a lot of people outside, but they didn't notice that there was a house in the back. It was just a back door, so they didn't go to the back.
Song Xintong's heart is excited for pepper, he Baiyun ran over and yelled at her: "Xintong, there are guests coming again, or riding a horse."
