"It's time to eat. Hurry up and wash your hands." Princess Yongmu called a group of children to eat at noon.
The number of people increased. There were 60 people and a few older children.
Previously, some of the neighbors were worried. After this crisis, they were sure that this little Zhuangzi had a deep background.
If he wanted to harm their children, he wouldn't have to find other means.
The main dish for lunch was assorted fried rice. The chef of the Li Family Zhuangzi made it.
First, he fried the eggs. The other things were diced carrots, chopped green onions, diced cucumbers, small pieces of cabbage leaves, diced pork lean meat with oil, and blanched diced mushrooms.
Then, he used cooked oil to stir the rice that had been cooked last night and mixed the rice into grains.
He put the fried rice in the pot, lowered the temperature of the stove, and dried the oil bit by bit. At this time, he added other things to fry and added a little salt.
The rice was golden in color and contained a lot of oil, which was good for the absorption of carotene.
Then, he steamed eggplant with minced meat, stir-fried shrimp with celery, tofu, sea cabbage with black fungus, a bowl of shredded radish soup, and a fruit plate with watermelon and muskmelon.
This was the lunch for the people of Zhuangzi. The children and adults ate the same food, but the portions were different.
The neighbor's children had never eaten such food in their lives.
After they were full, they strolled around and went to sleep. It was like kindergarten.
"Dongzhu, a day's worth of food is not cheap." Zhou Gui's heart ached. The neighbor's children were very good at eating.
"If you don't want to eat, then save it." Xiaolan rolled her eyes at him.
"I mean …"
"When danger comes, people want to protect you. Do you think it's because you're good-looking?
What's the point of eating this? Have you been to the Li Family Zhuangzi? Do you know what the people of the Li Family Zhuangzi eat? "
Xiaolan didn't care about the money spent on food. She felt that although the neighbors didn't help in the end, their friendship couldn't be repaid with money.
"No." Zhou Gui shook his head. He had never been to the Li Family Zhuangzi. Ordinary people couldn't enter now.
"There are still three days left. On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, I'll take you there to broaden your horizons. See more, listen more, and speak less." Xiaolan planned to have Zhou Gui learn from the various stewards of the Li Family Zhuangzi.
Don't act like you don't know anything. It'll be embarrassing if word gets out.
"Okay, thank you Dongzhu." Zhou Gui was very excited to be able to go to the Li Family Zhuangzi.
…
In the blink of an eye, it was the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. The matter with the Jiang family was settled, and they sent another thousand stallions.
Through selling things at a low price, they paid off the broker's loan and moved away. No one knew where they went.
Early in the morning, Princess Yongmu brought people and gifts to the neighbor's house. She said that today was a holiday and there would be no classes. Everyone would celebrate the Lantern Festival.
There were some fireworks set off at night, but she was not coming back. She would only be back in two or three days.
The vegetables in the greenhouse were directly thrown to the hired people. They could sell them and take some home themselves. It was the holidays.
The group of people did not bring any gifts and took a detour from the southern part of the city to the Li Family Zhuangzi.
Zhou Gui and the Li Family Zhuangzi were very excited. Their Zhuangzi was indeed related to the Li Family Zhuangzi. They could go there now.
When they arrived at Baqiao, they happened to meet the group of Nanqu's "big family". Zhou Gui was just about to move aside when a person ran over from the opposite side.
"Long time no see, it's been a few decades. Quick, beauty, come with me." The person started to talk nonsense as soon as he arrived.
The palace maids, eunuchs, and Winged Knights also started to run with him.
"Move aside, I want to get in the car." The person pulled Zhou Gui to the side and got into Princess Yongmu's car.
Zhou Gui: "…"
Then, their group went in first, and Nanqu's "big family" followed behind.
"Wen Tian, did you miss me?" Li Yi tried his best to fit his identity and give Princess Yongmu a different sense of novelty.
"Yes, yes." Princess Yongmu's personality changed a lot and became more lively.
When they were about to reach the main courtyard, Zhou Gui finally reacted. That was Li Dongzhu?
How could Li Dongzhu be like this? He was too different from the image he had in mind.
"Zhou Gui, Li An, follow me. I'm Xun Xin." Someone came over and greeted Zhou Gui and Li An's family of five.
"Manager Xun." Zhou Gui hurriedly greeted. Xun Xin was the second manager of Li Family Zhuangzi and was ranked among the top managers.
"Come." Xun Xin nodded as a greeting and led the six people to another place.
The six people walked very cautiously and looked at everything curiously. It was the first time they entered the Li Family Zhuangzi.
On the other side, Li Yi first arranged for Princess Yongmu and the others to rest in the courtyard, then he went to find people from Nanqu to discuss tonight's program.
Tonight, there would be fireworks in the two cities, the south of the city, the west of the city, the imperial city, and the Li Family Zhuangzi.
They had told the commoners not to run around and that they would be able to see it everywhere.
Zhou Gui and the others were led to take a bath and change into new clothes. They began to visit Zhuangzi.
"At first, when we came to Zhuangzi, we also felt that everything was inconceivable. Later, we got used to it and became energetic. We looked different from ordinary people …"
Xun Xin noticed that Zhou Gui and the others had a sense of inferiority. They would lower their heads when they saw the villagers, even if they changed into new clothes.
They felt that they were inferior and were not as good as ordinary commoners. Ordinary commoners had a fixed position and had an equal relationship with the villagers.
They felt that the master they followed could not compare to the master of Li Family Zhuangzi. Both sides were not equal because they did not know that their Lil 'Miss was the eldest princess.
His Zhuangzi Miss seemed to be relying on the Li Family Zhuangzi, which meant that their Lil 'Miss should be …
When Zhou Gui thought of this, he suddenly felt that the Jiang Family was lucky that they did not deal with them to death.
If Li Dongzhu liked his Lil 'Miss, it was normal for him to kill them to vent his anger.
Li An's family also had their own thoughts. They wanted to unite around their Lil 'Miss. When the time came, they would belong to the maternal family, which meant that their maternal family was weaker.
In their hearts, Li Dongzhu liked their Lil 'Miss, which was why he gave them good things and helped them.
If not for Li Dongzhu, their Lil 'Miss would be bullied to death by the Jiang Family.
"Do your work well and learn more, especially literacy. Currently, there is no one in Li Family Zhuangzi who is illiterate, including the families of the older students."
Xun Xin's attitude was gentle. He did not dare to treat the other party as a weak maternal family that was easy to bully.
After a while, it was noon. Their family was invited to eat with Li Yi.
Eight palace maids and eunuchs accompanied them. Li Yi, Princess Yongmu, and Xiao Lan sat at the same table.
"Don't eat too much for lunch. In the evening, there will be a barbecue feast, a bonfire party, and many places. You can eat while barbecuing. There will also be meat skewers and vegetable skewers."
Li Yi was easy to get along with and said to Zhou Gui and the others.
The six people were flattered. Just as they were about to bow, Li Yi turned around and said to Princess Yongmu, "Wen Tian, let's dance together tonight. It's very interesting. Dance around the bonfire."
"Okay." Princess Yongmu began to look forward to it. She felt that it was interesting to get along with Li Yi.
"What about me?" Xiao Lan was anxious.
"Let's dance together. Hold hands and dance around the bonfire. The dance steps are simple. And you guys." Li Yi took care of Zhou Gui and the others' emotions.
He used a special way to talk to Princess Yongmu while not neglecting the others.
In the past, when he was selling medical products, he could make everyone feel comfortable, even if he was tired.
