Chapter 149
After Xiaojiu woke up, Li Yuezhu was almost ready.
"Hurry up, haven't you finished eating? We have to pick up the guests."
The curtain outside the large pavilion in the courtyard has been pulled up, but another curtain has been pulled down at the innermost part.
There are more than a dozen tables placed outside, and each table has a fruit plate on it. Naturally, the fruit plate contains all kinds of fruits.
Xiao An seemed to know that today was a special day. He ran to the door early in the morning and looked down. He looked even more excited than Li Yuezhu.
"Come, come, sister, they are here."
Xiao An saw several carriages coming down from the foot of the mountain all the way from the top of the mountain, and estimated that they would be there in a quarter of an hour.
Li Yuezhu heard Xiao An's shouts and quickly made arrangements.
Some more juices were placed on these tables, and the best part was, these juices actually had ice in them.
Then he placed all the nuts and raisins that he had bought from the shopping system, one plate per table as usual.
In addition to these, there are also hawthorn rolls and some pastries made by Grandma Zhao.
There is a round table in the middle with watermelons, melons and strawberries on it, all of which have been chilled in mountain spring water.
In addition to these fruits, Li Yuezhu also put a lot of fungi and vegetables, and the table was filled with them, which looked really beautiful from a distance.
Lin Xinghuai had already packed up. He stood at the entrance of the Zhuyuan with only one soldier left beside him. The others were all scattered around the yard, acting like the man of the house.
Li Desheng sat among a group of old men. These were the village chiefs of the neighboring village. Even though they were so close, they did not meet often, at most only once every ten or eight years.
"I'm talking about Li Desheng. I heard that the renovation of your Lijia Village was very successful. How did you do it?"
The old village chiefs had not only heard about it, they had also seen it. Ever since an inexplicable person came and took away the land deed from their Xishan Mountain, they had been thinking about going to Lijia Village to see what happened.
Variety.
"Haha, there must be changes. I think you saw it when you passed by. Even after harvesting a crop of wheat, there are still crops growing in our fields."
Li Desheng's face is glowing today. When has he ever been so prosperous? All this is thanks to that little girl Li Yuezhu.
"I heard that your Lijia Village was organized by a girl, but the one who asked us for the land deed was a boy."
This has become a worry in the hearts of these old village chiefs. They have never thought about it, what is going on?
Seeing that Lijia Village is developing so well, it is impossible for them not to be jealous. As the old village chiefs, they also want to build the village better and lead the villagers to live a better life.
The land on that mountain really doesn't matter, it's just idle anyway. If they can lead the village to make a fortune, then they, as village chiefs, will really be worthy of their ancestors.
"You'll know if it's a boy or a girl. Let's take a look." Li Desheng also gave it a try.
The road up the mountain is still so flat, because this road is designed for the bamboo garden on the mountain, so you go all the way up to the entrance of the bamboo garden.
Lin Xinghuai had been waiting at the door for a long time. When he saw several carriages approaching, he quickly went over to greet them.
Lin Xinghuai was used to being the little devil in the capital, and he was also indispensable with the attitude he should have. Several old village chiefs saw this young master's aloofness, coupled with his full dress and the smock behind him.
The soldier also recognized that this was the boy who collected the land deed.
"Some old village chiefs are here, please come in quickly, please come in quickly."
Today, Lin Xinghuai was much more polite than when he went to the village before. At least he said a few polite words. The old village chiefs also stopped talking about Qiao, and they all bowed and walked in.
I have always heard that there is a villa on the west mountain that was built by a nobleman from the capital. I have never had the chance to see it. I don’t know who has taken advantage of it today, but I am lucky enough to come and take a look in this garden.
The village chiefs were considered to have seen the world, and they pretended to be calm at first. The further they walked in, the cooler feeling became more obvious. It was not midsummer here, it was as cool as early autumn.
"Oh, it's really nice here."
"Yes, yes, who would have thought that the spring water on this mountain actually flows out of this courtyard."
"I mean, the owner of this yard has really good taste."
Lin Xinghuai led the thirteen old village chiefs into the inner courtyard.
There is actually a huge pavilion at the back of the yard. There is a green gauze hanging on the pavilion. When the breeze blows, the gauze swaying with the wind, the spring water below emits the slightest coolness, and the shadows of the people behind the gauze are blurred through the water.
I got angry and looked at Nana again. This is not an ordinary yard, it is simply a fairyland on earth!
"You don't have to be polite to the village chiefs. You can sit wherever you like."
Lin Xinghuai was more of a gentleman this time. He led the old village chief into the pavilion and he went out.
Without Lin Xinghuai's company, the old village chiefs were all old friends, and their conversations were more casual and relaxed.
"Look at this workmanship, look at this craftsmanship, it's really something I've never seen before."
"Come on, let's sit down first and see what fruits are on this table?"
"Hey, there is another table over there. Look at that colorful table. What is that?"
Several old village chiefs also gathered around, curiously surrounding the round table in the middle to observe it carefully, but they did not dare to touch it easily with their hands.
"Hey, this is new, but it's a fruit I've never seen before, and I've never even heard of it."
Several old village chiefs consider themselves old and experienced, but they have never seen this strange fruit.
The oldest village chief, whose long beard almost reached his navel, tilted his head and asked Li Desheng who was standing aside.
"Desheng, is this the fruit grown in your village?"
"This fruit looks really fresh. We do grow several kinds of fruits in our fields."
The other village chiefs were envious after hearing this. I hope today's meeting can meet everyone's expectations!
The old village chiefs found everything strange. Looking at the exquisite appearance of this courtyard, they could tell that it could only be made by a wealthy family.
Li Yuezhu came from behind with Chen Jiuying. Today they both wore gauze long skirts with light pink hems. They also wore gold silk Zan, phoenix, ink and chrysanthemum pendants around their waists. They jingled as they walked, and their heads
Everyone was wearing the hood they wore yesterday, and in this fairyland with curling water, they looked like fairies falling from the sky.
Several old village chiefs held their breath and looked at the two fairies coming from a distance. This is really the residence of gods. Several old village chiefs couldn't help but sigh.
Li Yuezhu took Chen Jiuying directly from the back of the pavilion to the curtain inside. There were also various fruits and snacks placed inside the curtain. Xiao Jiuyi's eyes lit up when he saw the food. Just when he was about to reach out to grab a piece of fruit, he
He was slapped hard by Li Yuezhu.
Li Yuezhu whispered to Chen Jiuying: "Pay attention to your image."
Although the curtain in front can cover most people's eyes, it is translucent after all, and every move of the people inside can still be seen clearly by those sitting outside.
Chen Jiuying pouted. She could tell that the morning meal was made by Aunt Zhao. Although it was not unpalatable, it was not to her liking.
