MTL - After Dressing Up As a Stepmother, I Transformed the Whole Family Into Working In the Fields-Chapter 565 The Song family is here
Unfortunately, Zhen Yubai had already left when Liu Ji arrived.
They just came to see the great Confucian scholar to write an inspiring poem for the children in the school, and left after getting the poem.
Liu Ji, who had never been internally dissatisfied, suffered from severe internal dissatisfaction for a day. He was suspicious and depressed.
In the evening, the children returned from the county town, bringing the news that Song Zhang’s family was going to stay in Liujia Village for a few days.
The last time Song Zhang said he would come was before the Mid-Autumn Festival, but it didn’t come either.
I didn’t expect that the weather would get colder now, so I would be free.
Qin Yao asked Awang: "Did you tell me how long it would take to come?"
Awang replied: "Your Excellency didn't say, but it should be needed in the next three to five days. I saw that the servants of the Song family bought a lot of things in the city today, so they should stay in the village for a while."
Liu Ji was looking forward to it and discussed with Qin Yao excitedly, "Then what should we prepare? How about I go and sweep the courtyard of Master Song's house?"
In a new yard where no one lives, there must be fallen leaves everywhere.
There were few opportunities to show up in front of Song Zhang before, and people didn't take him seriously at all. This time Song Zhang was coming, and Liu Ji decided to show off in front of him.
After all, in the entire Kaiyang County, the only person Liu Juren could make friends with now was Magistrate Song.
Others cannot be seen by Liu Juren.
Qin Yao saw his positive energy and said, "Whatever you want."
I don’t want to, Liu Jilai really didn’t even eat dinner, picked up a rag and broom and rushed to the village happily.
Awang endured it and couldn't help but remind loudly: "Sir, you didn't take the key."
And there is no key.
Liu Ji, who had already rushed to the river bank, stopped suddenly and turned around angrily, "You didn't tell me earlier!"
Awang Xindao, you didn’t even ask. Not wanting to talk to the angry old man, he led the horse to the livestock shed, fed Old Huang until he was full, and then went home to eat.
At the dinner table, Liu Ji's resentful eyes flew towards him one after another. Awang was indifferent. He took a big bowl and filled it with a bowl full of vegetables. He squatted by the door and ate deliciously. The main idea was that if you can't see it, it doesn't exist.
Liu Ji was angry, but it was difficult to get angry, so he had to turn his anger into appetite and ate two bowls of rice more than usual.
“It smells so good!” He said with satisfaction, as if the embarrassing thing just now had never happened.
Dalang and his sister were immersed in their food and did not dare to raise their heads, for fear that their father would see the raised corners of their mouths.
Unfortunately, as soon as Yin Le, who had returned from running, entered the house, he found the four children suppressing their laughter. Yin Le, who had no idea what was going on, strode into the main room and asked loudly:
"Da Lang, what are you laughing at? Is there anything happy?"
Seeing that his father's eyes were about to turn around, Dalang suddenly became wise and quickly nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, Uncle Song will bring his family to stay in the village tomorrow."
“Last time when Uncle Song was having dinner at home, he said that his son was the best at archery, and it just so happened that we could go into the mountains to compete.”
This is true, so Liu Ji didn't notice anything was wrong, but instead echoed expectantly:
“That’s a good relationship. When the young master of the Song family comes, I’ll take care of him, Mr. Erlang.”
"Madam, why don't you ask for two days off for the children? It's also cold today. Seeing those little faces turning red from the cold makes me feel bad." Liu Ji looked concerned.
Erlang seriously refused: "I don't need to. I have already asked for leave today. I have to go back to school tomorrow, otherwise I won't be able to keep up with my homework."
But Qin Yao thought that it was the first time for the Song family to come to the village, so they should really greet them well, at least on the first day they should not be neglected.
"Then please give me another day tomorrow, and go back to school the day after tomorrow." After Qin Yao finished speaking, she looked at the four siblings: "Do you agree?" The twins nodded crazily.
Although Dalang felt that his parents were a bit too doting on his four siblings, he still couldn't resist the temptation of not going to school, so he accepted the offer with a smile.
Erlang sighed and said reluctantly: "That's okay."
So, after breakfast the next day, Qin Yao calculated the time for the Song family to arrive. Seeing that it was almost time, the couple took their children to the entrance of the village to welcome the Song Zhang family.
The weather is not bad today. The sun, which has been missing for many days, has come out and brought a ray of warm light to people.
The six members of the family had their hands folded in their sleeves and stood in rows where the sun could shine, looking toward the entrance of the village.
Finally, Qin Yao heard the sound of rolling wheels. In the expectant eyes of a family of six, a group of people appeared at the entrance of the village.
Song Zhang rode a tall horse with two guards in the front, the two young gentlemen rode ponies, and were in the middle under the protection of their respective servants. Finally, there was the carriage carrying Mrs. Song and Miss Song.
After the carriage, there are servants in an open-air bullock cart, and a black goat.
Yes, Song Zhang not only brought his wife, daughter and son, but also enthusiastically brought a black goat to Qin Yao's family.
After the two families greeted each other at the entrance of the village and the children also greeted each other, Qin Yao looked at the black goat that was stared at eagerly by San Lang and Si Niang, and tentatively suggested:
“Sir, madam, how about we have a barbecue together today?”
Song Zhang and his wife looked at each other and asked in unison: "Barbecue?"
Liu Ji and the children also looked over blankly, not knowing what barbecue was.
Qin Yao didn’t expect that everyone didn’t know that barbecue was such an interesting thing, but she seemed to have not had barbecue for a long time, and she didn’t know how to explain it.
So he waved to everyone and smiled mysteriously, "Just follow me and you'll find out!"
“Da Lang, remember to lead the sheep!” Qin Yao warned.
Dalang responded with a sigh, looked at each other with the second son of the Song Zhang family, and the two young boys of similar age ran over to lead the black goat.
Everyone followed Qin Yao to their home curiously. Qin Yao asked with a smile: "I will make arrangements for you. Is that okay?"
Mrs. Song was full of curiosity, so there was no problem, and she generously expressed her cooperation.
Seeing that his family was interested, Song Zhang also joked: "If there is something bad done, the village chief can't be angry."
Her temper could explode at any time. To be honest, he was a little afraid of her.
Qin Yao smiled helplessly, "Don't worry, I'm not that stingy person."
“Then since everyone has no objections, let’s start taking action?”
Everyone nodded, as if they were waiting for dispatch.
Qin Yao immediately made arrangements and pointed at Liu Ji: "You and Awang killed the sheep, cut all the best parts of the meat into small pieces and marinated it, and turned on the fire to let Li stew the rest. "
Liu Ji wanted to talk more with Mr. Song, but unfortunately he had no chance to refuse, so he was taken away by Awang, and together they sharpened their knives and attacked the goat.
Qin Yao nodded with satisfaction, and then told Dalang and Siniang:
“You go to Lian Yuan and ask Mr. and Mr. Qi if you can borrow the viewing platform in front of their house. It has the best location with plenty of sunshine and beautiful scenery. By the way, invite them to join our barbecue party.”
“I don’t think they will refuse.”
The brother and sister received the order and immediately ran towards the Lotus Courtyard, extremely excited. (End of chapter)
