56 New House Banquet

“Thank you, Big Brother! Let me know what you want to eat in the future. I’m not good at anything else, but I’m very good at cooking!”

Wei Wusheng really enjoyed her fawning manner and asked her to write down the recipe for the Medicinal Cuisine, and asked her to have a meal with him at the same time.

..

Wei Wusheng’s recipe was indeed very useful. She added a few medicinal herbs into the brine to make it taste even better. There was an endless stream of people coming to buy it, and it simply could not meet the demand. There were even some customers who said that their appetite had become better after eating her braised meat.

Jian Qingqing felt that it was a very fulfilling thing for the things she made to be liked by others. When she earned enough money to let her family live a prosperous life, she also wanted to open a restaurant. When the time came, she would hire a few chefs and cook as she pleased. There was no need to be too busy. At that time, life was the life she truly hoped to live.

Jian Qingqing thought that her family’s house would need to be built for at least a month, but she did not expect that it would be completed in 17 days.

The furniture and beds were all custom-made by Old Man Jian himself, and he also brought them back on the day the house was completed.

According to the customs of Shifeng County, the newly built house was to be celebrated by relatives, so on the last day of its completion, Old Man Jian invited the whole village to have a lively meal.

At this time, the spring planting had entered the follow-up stage, and many people had already planted everything they needed to plant, and the Jian Family was no exception. So today, the family was free to decorate the new house.

The Jian Family had been eating very well during this period of time, and Jian Qingqing often prepared Medicinal Cuisine for them, so they were no longer as skinny as before. Their faces had become ruddy and fleshy, and their bodies had become much stronger.

Xiao Hu and Jian Qingqing had also grown a little taller, and the Xiao Lang could also run and jump. They were very naughty.

Due to the honeysuckle incident in the Jian Family Village, each family had earned some money, so they were very grateful to Jian Qingqing. They came to help decorate their house.

Today, Jian Qingqing was the head chef and made a lot of food, including braised meat and roast duck. The kitchen was bustling with activity.

In the new house, Jian Dalang and the uncles in the village were moving furniture inside. The children picked up the dumplings and snacks. They ran from room to room.

Outside the house, Mother Jian and a group of aunties were knitting straw mats. The straw mats were woven by the guests on the day the new house was built. At night, the host would sleep on the newly woven straw mats.

Suddenly, the lively crowd quieted down and looked in a certain direction.

Following their line of sight, a young man on a tall horse slowly walked along the path. The young man was dressed in a blue brocade robe, and his face was like a crown of jade.

The Jian Family villagers were stunned for a moment and stared blankly at the approaching person.

The Village Chief put down the things in his hands and asked nervously, “May I ask who Young Master is looking for?”

Ming Zhiyan had dismounted, he nodded and replied, “There’s no need to be so polite, Old Man. I’m a guest here for the banquet.”

The Village Chief was puzzled. When did Old Man Jian have such a rich relative?

Standing at the side of the main door, Jian Dalang also came back to his senses and poked Old Man Jian. “Father, is that the person that big sister saved that day?”

That day, it was Jian Dalang who helped clean Ming Zhiyan’s body and change his clothes. He had never seen such a handsome young man in his life, so he had a deep impression of him.

Old Man Jian looked at him carefully. “It seems to be him. Let’s go and ask him.”

When they went over, they heard Ming Zhiyan’s reply and immediately smiled. “Young Master Ming, please come in quickly. Today, Big Sister is cooking, so the food will be enough!”

Ming Zhiyan cupped his fists and saluted. “Thank you, Uncle.”

“Hey, come in and sit down! Brother, lead Young Master Ming’s horse to the stable!”

Old Man Jian was very happy with Ming Zhiyan’s arrival. He wanted to grab Ming Zhiyan’s hand and bring him in. However, he was afraid that he would be too abrupt.

Ming Zhiyan glanced at him and took the initiative to help him into the house.
