With Cheng Yaojin here, Qin Qiong was no longer in charge of the training. Li Zexuan had some matters to attend to, so Pang Feiji and the rest of the guards' training was handed over to Qin Qiong. Li Zexuan himself slipped away.
"Hehe! Young Master, you're here! "
"Young Master, come to my house for lunch. I just hunted a pheasant yesterday. The meat is very fresh!"
"Young Master, come to my house. I hunted two rabbits yesterday!"
"Come to my house. I have fish!"
"Tsk, fish is nothing. I bought two catties of wild boar meat in Chang 'an yesterday. Young Master, why don't you try it? "
That's right. After Li Zexuan left the academy, he went straight to the Han Family Village. As soon as he entered the village, he was greeted by a group of villagers. It was less than an hour before noon, so the villagers warmly invited Li Zexuan to their houses for lunch.
"Haha! I appreciate everyone's good intentions. Today, I came to the manor to look for my father-in-law for some matters. I'll be having lunch there! "
Looking at the enthusiastic villagers, Li Zexuan smiled and rejected them one by one.
"Alright, alright! Disperse! With me, Han Tianhu, here, Xiao Xuan will have nothing to eat in our village. Disperse! I appreciate everyone's good intentions! "
Unknowingly, Han Tianhu had also arrived at the entrance of the village. He smiled and persuaded the villagers around Li Zexuan.
"Ha! Since Han Lizheng is here, let's disperse! We'll invite Young Master another day! "
"Young Master, you must do us the honor! My wife's cooking is very delicious! "
"That's right! Young Master, you must do us the honor! "
Seeing that Han Tianhu had arrived, the villagers knew that they would not be able to invite Li Zexuan today. They said a few words and dispersed.
Li Zexuan agreed to their requests one by one. They were all a group of lovely and honest working people!
"Young Master! Thank you so much for promoting my family! "
Everyone else left, except for Hu Hanyun. He bowed deeply to Li Zexuan and thanked him.
"Uncle Hu, what are you talking about? As expected, he was able to enter the Academy because of his own ability. I didn't help him at all. Don't stand on ceremony ~! "
Li Zexuan quickly pulled Hu Hanyun up and said with a smile.
Han Tianhu couldn't help but laugh. "Little Xuan, you don't know this, but Hu has really become the pride of the village. When the other villagers heard that the Hu family had a student from Yanhuang College, they were all envious. A few people have already come looking for me, asking me to quickly set up a school in the village! Now that the villagers are living better lives, they want their children to be able to study ~! "
Li Zexuan said happily, "That's a good thing! Haha! It's time for our village to have a school for beginners. Taishan, hurry up and get it done. If you have any difficulties, you can find me at any time. I can also send a group of engineers from the Academy to you! "
Han Tianhu waved his hands and said, "No need, no need! The original school in the village can still be used after some slight renovations. There's no need to make it so luxurious! "
Hu Hanyun also said, "Yes, Young Master! We're used to living a hard life. We can't be fussy about that! To us villagers, it's already a blessing for our children to have a place to study ~! "
"Mm, alright then!"
Li Zexuan saw that and didn't insist. He let them be.
"Hanyun, do you want to have a drink with Little Xuan in the afternoon ~?"
After talking about the school in the village, Han Li looked at Hu Hanyun and invited him.
"Hey ~! How can I do that? "
Hu Hanyun was quite tempted, but he refused.
"What's there to be embarrassed about? Let's go! Let's go! The sun is really hot ~! "
Han Tianhu said casually.
Now that his son and daughter were no longer by his side, he was usually the only one at home. He was a proper "lonely old man". It was rare for Li Zexuan to visit him, so he was happy from the bottom of his heart to be able to gather a table for a feast.
Hu Hanyun could see that Han Tianhu was sincerely inviting him and wasn't just being polite. He said, "Okay, okay, okay! You guys go first. I'll call my wife to help cook! "
Han Tianhu smiled and said, "Heh ~! That's great! Otherwise, my cooking skills won't be good ~! "
.....
At noon, the Han family held a big banquet.
Liu Yue`e also put in a lot of effort in cooking this meal. One had to know that Li Zexuan was not only the young master of the village, but also her son's Yamachō. She also wanted to do something to repay him.
"Come! Little Xuan, Hanyun, let's drink ~! "
Han Tianhu raised a cup of wine and laughed heartily.
"Okay ~!"
"Haha! To Li Zheng, to Young Master! "
The three of them raised their heads and drank the wine in their cups. Li Zexuan smiled and said,
"Father-in-law, I heard from Yuxi that the village's harvest this year wasn't good. Recently, I've been busy with the academy. Today, I happened to have some time, so I came personally to see how the villagers are doing."
Han Tianhu put down his cup and nodded solemnly. "This year's harvest is indeed not good. Our village is better. First, Little Xuan, you've reduced the rent. Second, the villagers have other sources of income other than grain, such as the mountain fruit wine previously and eggs now. So, even if there's a decrease in grain production, it won't affect the villagers. However, the other villages aren't so lucky. Sigh, I think many poor people will starve to death in winter!"
The good atmosphere suddenly became a little gloomy after being said like that.
Hu Hanyun comforted him and said, "That can't be helped. How can Young Master take care of the world's citizens alone? This is something His Majesty should worry about. Besides, didn't the imperial court issue a tax reduction decree previously? The situation should be better! "
"Sigh ~!"
Han Tianhu knew the inside story of the people. He shook his head and didn't explain further. He only sighed and poured himself a cup of wine.
Li Zexuan said, "His Majesty is a rare wise ruler. The lives of the world's citizens will definitely get better and better. Father-in-law, you don't have to be discouraged!"
"Mm, forget it. Let's not talk about this anymore. Eat, eat! Little Xuan, eat more! "
Han Tianhu waved his hand and pointed at the dishes on the plate.
Li Zexuan quickly agreed. Then, he realized that the dishes for lunch were a little strange. Scrambled eggs with cucumber, egg and tofu soup, fried eggs, stewed eggs, onions (which should be called onions at this time) scrambled eggs … The dishes on the table were most likely related to eggs. Li Zexuan wanted to ask, "Father-in-law, can't you sell your eggs?"
"Father-in-law, just make some vegetables. Why did you make so many eggs? Shouldn't you leave them for Iron Egg to nourish the body ~? "
Some words could be said in his heart, but he couldn't say it out loud. Li Zexuan hesitated for a moment, then pointed at the dishes on the plate and smiled bitterly at Han Tianhu.
