Traveling through ancient times to escape famine, the prince led me to rebel

Speaking of the ox cart, Luo Xiaoran also invited the owner of the ox cart, Uncle Niu.

Zhao Cuilan called him Uncle Niu, but Du Kongqing called him Grandpa Niu, leaving Luo Xiaoran at a loss as to what to call him.

On second thought, I decided to call him Uncle Niu!

After all, he could read one less word and become one generation higher than Du Kongqing out of nowhere.

Uncle Niu's grandson, Niu Shubao, the head of Luo Xiaoran's tenants, was naturally invited as well.

Uncle Niu is an open-minded and cheerful old grandfather. He is older than everyone else and has a lot of experience. Even the village chief will give him some face.

As soon as they met, Uncle Niu took the initiative to greet Luo Xiaoran:

"Hey, Miss Luo, not counting this time, I have only seen you twice.

One time was when you first entered the village, you drove a horse-drawn carriage behind my ox cart, and you were dressed like a young man at that time.

Another time was when the ancestral hall was opened to try Zhang Erhe.

I think you are an amazing girl and you will do great things in the future!

"I feel relieved if Shubao follows you!"

Luo Xiaoran smiled and asked him and Niu Shubao to take a seat quickly:

"Uncle Niu, you should just call me Xiao Ran!

Niu Shubao is very capable. He was the one who found the fruit trees in my yard for me!"

In front of the reception room, in the blank space of the yard, there are several fruit trees.

There are apple trees, pear trees, persimmon trees, and jujube trees, all of which were bought with the help of Niu Shubao.

It's just that there are no fruits on it.

When Niu Shubao heard Luo Xiaoran praising himself to Uncle Niu, a shy smile appeared on his honest face.

"Miss Luo, thank you for the compliment. This is what I should do. Kongqing has also helped a lot." Niu Shubao said, pointing at Du Kongqing.

Du Kongqing waved his hands and said anxiously:

"Brother Niu took care of everything himself. I just helped negotiate the price of the fruit trees with the owners. I didn't do anything else."

Luo Xiaoran raised the corners of her mouth slightly: "Anyway, I have to thank you. I will have a lot of fruits to eat next autumn."

Luo Xiaoran's yard is very large, with a special area for planting fruit trees and built flower beds.

The remaining land is divided into many areas specifically for growing vegetables.

But most of them are still empty now, as winter is approaching and no seeds have been sown.

Carpenter Liu Yishui only brought his youngest son Liu Xiaoshan with him.

Four-year-old Liu Xiaoshan is very capable.

While his father and three brothers were busy making furniture for Luo Xiaoran, he followed behind them, handing them tools and running errands, being very well-behaved.

Every time Luo Xiaoran went to the Liu family to check on the progress of furniture making, it was Liu Xiaoshan who opened the door for her, so the two of them became familiar with each other.

Unexpectedly, Liu Xiaoshan was a little timid when he followed his father to Luo Xiaoran's house this time.

"What's wrong? I used to be the one visiting your house, and this time it's your turn to visit my house. Don't you like it?" Luo Xiaoran teased him deliberately.

Liu Xiaoshan's eyes widened, but he still didn't say anything.

Liu Yishui looked at his son's stupid look and couldn't help laughing, "Xiaoshan, Miss Luo is asking you a question!"

Liu Xiaoshan looked up at his father and finally said, "Dad, Sister Xiaoran's house is so big!"

"Nonsense, otherwise why would your father break so much furniture!"

As soon as Liu Yishui finished speaking, everyone in the hall burst into laughter.

……

The dishes for the housewarming party were actually nothing special, they were just a few home-cooked dishes that I had made before.

Scrambled eggs with cucumber, shredded potatoes with vinegar, sweet and sour fish, stir-fried pork with green beans, braised pork, stir-fried chicken with green onions, braised lamb, stir-fried pork intestines with green onions, corn and pork ribs soup, and white porridge.

These dishes were not made by Luo Xiaoran herself; the chef was Aunt Ji.

After these days of training, Aunt Ji can now cook meals that satisfy Luo Xiaoran.

Very fast learning speed!

Aunt Ji must study hard!

Firstly, Luo Xiaoran is her master, and she must complete her master's orders conscientiously.

Second, Luo Xiaoran’s cooking is so delicious that she must learn from her.

She never imagined that the three of them were still chewing tree bark while fleeing from the famine.

After selling myself, I could only eat one steamed bun a day, which was enough to keep me from starving.

As a result, after being bought by Luo Xiaoran, he not only had a place to live, but also had enough food and warm clothes, and he also ate so well.

In order to repay Luo Xiaoran, Aunt Ji put in a lot of effort to learn the dishes that Luo Xiaoran taught her.

A few days ago, Luo Xiaoran told her that a housewarming party was going to be held today.

So, she asked her husband to buy the ingredients yesterday and started preparing before dawn today.

Finally, after the guests arrived, I managed to prepare ten dishes and soup, making the meal perfect.

The staple food is steamed buns.

The portions of dishes and soup are huge, definitely enough for everyone present to feast on.

But everyone was a little hesitant when faced with a table full of dishes.

Zhao Cuilan couldn't help but mutter to herself.

My God, even during the Chinese New Year, they don’t have such a sumptuous meal.

Almost all of them are meaty!

Zhang Xiuqiao sat next to Zhao Cuilan and did not pick up her chopsticks. Mainly, her parents did not pick up their chopsticks either.

The last time Luo Xiaoran delivered dinner to their house, the four dishes there overlapped with some of today’s dishes.

She had tasted Luo Xiaoran's cooking, and the food she made was so delicious that she wanted to swallow her tongue.

However, she couldn't move until her parents started eating.

Zhang Xiuqiao swallowed quietly and glanced secretly at her parents.

Wang Baobao is in a complicated mood now.

I can’t come! I can’t come!

If you want to come, let the old man come alone!

She and Luo Xiaoran don’t have a very deep friendship!

However, the old man couldn't resist Luo Xiaoran's invitation, so he didn't object and finally came.

Now they have prepared such a sumptuous meal, how can I return the gift?

It's all the old man's fault!

Thinking of this, Wang Baobao reached his hand under the table and secretly pinched the village chief.

"Cough cough!"

The village chief's cough broke the silence at the dinner table.

"What's wrong, Village Chief? Are the foods not to your liking?" Luo Xiaoran blinked.

Luo Xingchen also blinked and looked at the village chief.

The village chief knew why the old woman pinched him!

He also didn't expect that Luo Xiaoran's housewarming party would be so splendid!

"No, no, it's not that I don't like it, it's just that there's too much and it's too rich!" explained the village chief.

Luo Xiaoran finally understood why everyone was not eating.

She gave Ruyi a look, and the little girl understood. She took out the fruit wine she bought in the county town and poured it for everyone.

The alcohol content of this fruit wine is not high, so it can be drunk not only by adults but also by the elderly and children.

Luo Xiaoran raised her glass:

"My sister and I have been in Hexi Village for more than a few months, and we all rely on your care. Today's meal is well deserved, so please don't be polite!

Also, I am younger than you, so everyone can just call me Xiao Ran from now on."

After saying that, Luo Xiaoran drank the wine in his hand.

Now that the host has made an opening statement, it would be too pretentious for everyone to just stand there and do nothing.

As the village chief, Zhang Changzong had to come out and set an example, but after hesitating for a long time, he only uttered one sentence:

"Have friends come from afar!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone at the table burst into laughter.

Wang Baobao glared at the village chief: "What a flowery thing..."

Then let’s start eating!
