A time-travelling peasant girl becomes a wealthy woman

Chapter 205 Banquet

Lu Changqing is a man who dares to fight and has a unique vision. He is a good partner.

"peaceful."

Huang Mulin winked, and An Ning understood and went to move out the second wooden board.

She said to Lu Changqing, "This is a rough plan for the area outside Nanzhenkou. It is confidential and is not allowed to be shared with anyone before it is completed. Even your family members are not allowed to share it."

Lu Changqing was stunned, nodded, and walked towards the wooden board.

A quarter of an hour later, he almost floated out of the Huang family mansion.

With an expression that was both happy and dumb.

Not long after Lu Changqing left, Lao Tian came over.

After much thought, he decided to buy a shop as an investment. Even if he didn't open the shop in the future, he could sublet it and accumulate some assets for the younger generations in his family.

Huang Mulin was quite surprised, but he had to admit that Lao Tian still had some ideas.

Three days later, Huang Mulin held a banquet to invite the first group of people who bought shops.

Jiang Yuwei, Lu Changqing and Lou Qianzheng were notified in advance and rushed over from Bofeng County. You Lan stayed in Linhai Town and never left.

Old Tian didn't come over, saying that they were all family and he believed that she would be able to complete the expansion outside Nanzhenkou, so Huang Mulin let him do as he pleased.

It was a field holiday, and the fourth son of the Huang family also returned.

Shen Junkun had never been to Linhai Town, and because his father was helping the Huang family raise buffaloes here, after discussing with his mother Xia Ruxuan, the whole family came to visit Shen Jiamao.

Tang Yuhe returned home and learned that Tang Qian and his uncle were going to the Huang family mansion in Xiushan Village. He pestered Tang Qian and said that he wanted to go too. Tang Qian thought about it and Huang Mulin said that he could bring family members, so the whole family just went there.

The same is true for Tang Jide.

Huang Jinlin hadn't cooked for a long time. Today, Huang Mulin was going to host a banquet, so he went to find her, "Mumu, can I be the chef for today's banquet?"

Huang Mulin raised his head from the pile of account books, "Fourth brother, are you itching to do something?"

"Yeah! I haven't cooked in a while!"

Huang Jinlin nodded.

"No problem, go talk to the chef."

"to make."

Their conversation was heard by Huang Qilin who was passing by, and he followed Huang Jinlin to the kitchen to help.

"Sister, do you have to look at so many account books every day?"

Huang Haolin, who was sitting next to her and helping her check the accounts, asked.

"No." Huang Mulin pouted, "Usually it's Yuyan who keeps the accounts and settles the bills. I just check on her once in a while."

"Yuyan is very capable. I have never seen her make any mistakes."

"Thank you for the compliment, Miss."

Lin Yuyan smiled very cutely when she was praised.

Huang Haolin glanced at her but didn't say anything.

"Brother, please pass the exam and come back to help me." Huang Mulin felt a headache when he thought of those scenes of entertaining people. "I don't want to do this hard job of negotiation anymore."

"Okay, second brother, try your best."

"Thank you, second brother~"

Apart from the housewarming party, the Huang family mansion had never hosted so many guests before. The servants and maids hurried to the storeroom to move out the seldom-used round table, wiped it clean carefully, and placed it in the aisles between the east and west wings.

There were so many people that there wasn't enough space in the restaurant, and it was used to entertain female guests.

After Shen Junkun and others arrived at Linhai Town, they learned that the girl who saved their family was Huang Mulin, the county magistrate of Qiling County.

If Xia Ruxuan hadn't supported Shen's mother, she would have fallen to the ground.

"My son~" Mother Shen took a few deep breaths before speaking tremblingly: "Why didn't you give me a heads up in advance!"

Shen Jiamao chuckled, a little embarrassed, "I forgot...

"How could you forget such a big thing!?"

Mother Shen glared at him fiercely.

"I really forgot." Shen Jiamao begged, "Mom, don't be angry. In the Huang family mansion, we should just get along naturally. The head of the family is all very good people. Being too polite will only make us uncomfortable."

"I'm just too comfortable. I almost can't remember my status as a county lord."

"Then..." Shen Junkun asked, "Aren't Huang Qilin and the others... the county lord's biological brothers?"

"Replacement guaranteed."

Shen Junkun felt that his father was becoming less and less reliable!

"Hey, don't think about those things." Shen Jiamao reminded his family, "The Huang family is very easy to get along with. There is no distinction between high and low status here. It's different from the ones we met before. Even the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo is very approachable..."

Before Shen Jiamao could finish, Shen Junkun interrupted him with a weird cry, "Madam Zhenguogong!?"

"Yes!" Shen Jiamao nodded, "The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo has been living in Xiushan Village and has not returned to the capital."

Shen Junkun, Shen's mother and Xia Ruxuan looked at each other in bewilderment. They had never expected that they would be able to cling to the thigh of the most noble of nobles! ?

"Alright, alright." Shen Jiamao interrupted their eye contact, "Just remember to be natural and at ease. The Huang family doesn't care about status. Just know the etiquette. Do you understand?"

"got it."

When Qu Chao and others entered the second courtyard, their attention was immediately attracted by the round table placed in the aisle.

"what is this?"

Qu Chao asked curiously, and the others also looked curious.

Butler Zou replied: "This is a round table."

He walked to the round table and said, "Gentlemen, please look."

He fiddled with the round wooden block in the middle and made it spin: "The dishes are placed on this wooden board. When a table of people eat, they can just spin the wooden block to get the dish they want. They don't need to stand up to pick it up."

"This is good!"

Lei Xin on the side clapped his hands.

"This is a table made by my uncle. The idea was proposed by my young lady."

"County Lord?"

Everyone was surprised.

"Yes." Butler Zou couldn't hide the pride in his eyes, "Our young lady is the best at studying new things."

In the crowd, people like Tang Jide who already knew Huang Mulin's abilities couldn't help but nod in agreement.

The others looked at each other, and became even more curious about Huang Mulin and her plan.

Butler Zou arranged for everyone to take their seats and then served tea and snacks.

Some cold dishes were also served.

As the hosts, Huang Bo and his wife naturally had to come out to entertain the guests.

The male guests were Huang Bo, Huang Haolin and Huang Xilin, while the female guests were arranged in the restaurant and He Hui Niang went to receive them.

"Master Huang, what is this?"

Tang Jide asked.

"Oh, this is a new food that Mumu has recently made, called cold dishes." At the end, he added, "These are made by my fourth child, and they taste good. You can try them."

Fourth child?

Shen Junkun was stunned. Is it Huang Jinlin?

Can he cook?

With skeptical thoughts, everyone tasted it.

Sour, spicy and a little sweet, a very appetizing food!

Many people couldn't help but pinch it a second time, a third time...

Soon, the small plate of salad was empty.

But they were still not satisfied with the food.

"Master Huang, this..."

Even Tang Jide, who came to the Huang family mansion from time to time, felt a little embarrassed.

"Don't worry, everyone. My fourth son will be the cook today. There are a lot of delicious food. Please save some space."

"Jinlin kid is cooking?"

Tang Jide and Tang Qian's eyes lit up.

Others were curious.
