The pretty widow is addicted to money, and the little wolfdog asks for a hug

In the end, under He Jinrou's persuasion, Luo went to Gu Heng's house together.

The Meng family had arrived early, and the women were all helping.

Qi Yuanshuo was sparring with Meng Wubing and Meng Wuzai in martial arts, and the young boys were tumbling to the ground.

Meng Wuhuan, Shuya, Shumiao, and Yin'er were feeding the four birds with insects.

Every time the birds swallowed a worm, the four little kids giggled.

Shumiao and Yin'er were both just over one year old. The two little ones walked unsteadily and would occasionally fall down. Baishou and Baiwei would hold their collars and lift them up.

After seeing this, Gu Qinghuai said in her heart that the four birds were simply a magical tool for soothing babies. From now on, her daughter will have something to play with.

Meng Wuchou and Shuyin sat on a small stool and plucked the feathers of the pheasant that had been boiled in hot water.

Gu Heng and Gu Qingshan warmly invited He Lizheng and his family to take a seat.

According to Gu Qinghuai, there is no need to separate tables for men and women at home. People who are familiar with each other will feel more comfortable sitting together.

Luo and He Jinrou sat next to He Lizheng, while He Jinxuan excitedly joined the bird feeding army.

Gu Qinghuai knew that Luo was feeling a little awkward, so he didn't take the initiative to move forward and let his grandmother entertain her.

What puzzled Gu Qinghuai was that He Jinrou looked at her with inexplicable coldness and hostility.

Gu Qinghuai thought about it and felt that he had never offended this girl.

In that case, then it’s He Jinrou’s own problem.

Gu Qinghuai smiled faintly, not affected at all.

If it weren't for He Lizheng's sake, she would not have bothered with Luo and He Jinrou at all.

Soon, she discovered that He Jinrou's gaze was closely following Qi Yuanshuo, with a strange light flashing in her eyes.

That's it!

Did He Jinrou regard her as an imaginary enemy?

Gu Qinghuai laughed.

He Lizheng saw that his daughter kept looking at the boys and looked a little embarrassed, so he asked He Jinrou to help Meng Wuchou pluck the chicken feathers.

A look of disgust flashed across He Jinrou's face, and she quickly declined, saying that she had several cracks on her hands and couldn't touch water.

He Lizheng glanced at her and didn't say anything else.

Luo's eyes were fixed on He Lizheng, afraid that he would look at Zhao Ying for too long.

Zhao Ying was busy in the soap workshop. She only came out to see a customer and then went back to work.

Luo's eyes looked at Zhao Ying with some hostility, and even though she concealed it well, Gu Qinghuai still caught it.

Gu Qinghuai suddenly felt that both Luo’s mother and daughter were a little crazy.

Alas, He Lizheng is such a good man, but how come he has to marry Luo? I guess the He family will be in turmoil in the future.

And their relationship with the He family is destined not to be as free of grudges as that with the Meng family, unless He Lizheng can suppress Luo and prevent her from showing up and making trouble.

……

The welcoming banquet was hosted by Gu Heng.

Today, the Meng and He families were working outside and did not see Gu Guangzhi chopping Liu Damai with their own eyes.

Gu Heng solemnly introduced Nangong Yun, and then briefly recounted the grievances between Gu Guangzhi, Nangong Yun and Liu Damai, so that the Meng and He families could understand what was going on.

Meng Wubing and Meng Wuzai both regretted that they did not see Liu Damai being beheaded and chopped into pieces with their own eyes.

Guo Yueying praised Gu Guangzhi on the spot, saying that he was a real man, which made Nangong Yun couldn't help laughing.

After everyone was introduced, the banquet began. There were five tables in total, which were set up in the yard. Accompanied by the breeze and bright moon, it had a unique flavor.

There are not many dishes on the table, but they are enough to fill you up, and most of them are meat, braised, fried, stewed, and roasted, all of which can satisfy your taste buds and appetite.

The servants in the house sat at different seats from the masters, but they all ate the same food and were not divided into different classes.

Everyone enjoyed the meal very much.

He Jinrou was very satisfied with the meal, but she felt a little uncomfortable in her heart because she saw Zhao Xiaoshi sitting next to Gu Qinghuai, constantly picking up dishes for Gu Qinghuai, pouring water, and adding rice, with a very gentle look in his eyes.

She suspected that Zhao Xiaoshi liked Gu Qinghuai, but on second thought, she felt that it was impossible.

Gu Qinghuai is several years older than Zhao Xiaoshi! How could a man like a woman older than himself?

Moreover, Gu Qinghuai was a pregnant widow who had lost her virginity long ago and had a burden with her. She was not worthy of Zhao Xiaoshi at all.

After comforting herself in this way, He Jinrou felt much better.

However, when she had the chance, she had to remind Gu Qinghuai to stay away from Zhao Xiaoshi to avoid gossip.

She is a widow and may not care about her reputation, but Zhao Xiaoshi is still unmarried, so reputation is very important.

After eating and drinking, the cups and plates on the table were removed. After wiping the table clean, Gu Qinghuai asked Yi Ren and Lu Yongmei to serve tea and fruit plates.

Everyone sat around the dining table, drinking tea and eating fruit while discussing village affairs.

He Lizheng was listening to Gu Qinghuai saying that he was going to help the village build a brick and tile factory and a charcoal factory. He was so excited that he jumped up from his chair on the spot, "Huai girl! Is what you said true? Do you really know how to make bricks and charcoal?"

Gu Qinghuai nodded with a smile: "Of course it's true, how can it be fake?"

"This...this, this, this is so good! Oh my God! Oh my God!" He Li was rubbing his hands constantly, his eyes were frighteningly bright, and his cheeks were flushed.

Luo's eyes also lit up. Her husband was the head of the village. If the village established these two factories, their family would definitely benefit a lot in the future.

At least her brothers from her mother's side can come over to work and earn money.

The Meng family was also very happy that Huai girl was a person with vision and broad mind!

Seeing that their granddaughter/daughter/young master is so smart and capable, the Gu family and the Cui family are very proud.

[Ding, congratulations to the host for receiving male admiration value 1000, total admiration value points]

[Ding, congratulations to the host for receiving male admiration value 9999, total admiration value points]

.........

This time, Gu Qinghuai received a total of points!

Adding the previous points, she now has a total of points.

Get rich, get rich!

Gu Qinghuai was very excited. Once the two factories in the village were built, she should receive more points and could basically achieve points freedom!

Gu Qinghuai suppressed his inner ecstasy and said in a gentle voice: "Uncle He, in addition to setting up a factory, I also want the villagers to grow sugarcane, sugar beets, and winter wheat."

When the Meng family heard this, they all understood Gu Qinghuai's intention.

They all learned sugar-making technology and knew that sugarcane and beets are the main raw materials for sugar-making. Huai Yatou (Little Huai Jie) did this to provide raw materials for the sugar workshop, and to allow the villagers to have more income, which really killed two birds with one stone!

"Sugarcane and sugar beets?" He Lizheng had never heard of these two crops.

Gu Qinghuai nodded: "Sugarcane and sugar beets are the main raw materials for sugar production. As long as the villagers are willing to grow them, the Meng family's sugar workshop will purchase them, and the village will be able to produce and sell them by itself."

"Yes, we are responsible for purchasing and will ensure that the villagers do not have a backlog of sugar beet raw materials!" Guo Yueying assured, patting her chest.

Hearing this, He Lizheng was so excited that tears welled up in his eyes. Huai girl has never forgotten her fellow villagers even after becoming rich!

With these opportunities, the villagers of Tuniu Village can have enough food and clothing, and even have a surplus every year.

He Lizheng's knees were itching and he really wanted to kneel down and kowtow to Huai girl, but unfortunately he was the elder and he couldn't violate the etiquette.

He had no choice but to wipe away his tears and said excitedly: "Huai girl, tell me! If there is anything you need Uncle He to do, Uncle He will do it immediately!"
