Traveling through ancient times, the spy princess had everything going smoothly

Chu Qinghe brought the roasted chicken, duck and goose to the table, and everyone sat around and enjoyed this delicious feast.

In addition to these, the table was also filled with other delicacies carefully prepared by Chu Qinghe: soft, sweet and fragrant eight-treasure rice pudding, sweet and sour pork ribs with excellent color, aroma and taste, refreshing and delicious cold-mixed bamboo shoots, fragrant steamed pork with rice flour, delicious fish head and tofu soup, spicy and delicious dry-fried chicken, stir-fried wild rabbit, as well as stir-fried Chinese cabbage, shredded potatoes with vinegar and cold-mixed black fungus and cucumber.

The head of the village and the village chief were invited to the house, and some villagers were also attracted to Chu Laoer's house by the fragrance, and everyone warmly invited them to taste it together.

The villagers had never eaten such delicious food before. They were embarrassed to eat it at first, but later they couldn't stop eating it. During this time, everyone praised Chu Qinghe's food for being delicious and said that if they sold it, they would definitely make money.

Chu Qinghe smiled and said to everyone: "These foods will be made in their factory in the future. After the factory is built, these foods will be made and sold one after another, and sold to all parts of Dasheng."

The head of the village and the village chief were very excited when they heard this. The head of the village said happily:

"He girl, your uncle Dahai said that if they work a little harder today, they can complete the construction of two factories.

We will clean it up tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, and the factory will be ready for use."

Everyone was very happy to hear this. After the factory was built, the village would be able to recruit people to work, and the family income would increase a lot.

Thinking about the fact that the family had made more money recently because of Chu Laoer's family, and that they could have meat on the dinner table, the villagers were very happy and were very grateful to Chu Qinghe's family.

Chu Qinghe said to everyone:

“This food factory was built in the village to help everyone improve their lives and lead a good life.

So I decided to build a tribal school in the village where both boys and girls can go to school.

Ten percent of the factory's profits will be used for the village's daily expenses every year, such as rebuilding the ancestral hall and repairing roads. It can also be used to distribute dividends to the village. This will be decided by the village head and the village chief in the future."

When the head of the village and the village chief heard this, they were excited, thrilled and moved.

The village head stood up, looked at Chu Qinghe and said excitedly: "He girl, are you telling the truth?"

Seeing Chu Qinghe nod with a smile, he continued, "Girl, our Shangao Village is so blessed to have such a good child like you. Grandpa thanks you on behalf of the old and young men, girl. Don't worry, our village will never let you down for your support and dedication to us."

The village chief also echoed:

"Yes, He girl, everyone has seen and remembered your contribution to the village.

If there is anything that needs to be done in the village, just ask and we will fully support you."

Chu Qinghe smiled and said:

“I just want to do my bit for the village and make everyone’s life better.

These factories built in our village belong to everyone.

As long as everyone treats this as their own factory, we will work together to take care of the factory, do our best to do our work, and maintain the factory's daily production.

When everyone makes money, life will be better and our village will be better.”

At this time, a villager stood up and said:

"Qing He is right. From now on, we villagers must work together as one and not allow even a single bad apple to exist."

Other villagers also agreed and were willing to contribute their own strength to the development of the village.

General Qin's family and Chu's family were happy to see the villagers support Qinghe so much, and they were also proud of Qinghe's excellence.

Madam Qin said:

“The day after tomorrow is Qinghe’s coming-of-age ceremony. The child has suffered a lot since she was a child with her parents, but she is fortunate to have everyone’s support and care.

So the day after tomorrow at my coming-of-age ceremony, I invite everyone to come to my house for a drink, and please be sure to come!"

When everyone heard that Qinghe had reached the age of marriage, they were very happy and said in unison: "We will definitely come!"

Everyone was very satisfied with the meal, and after finishing the meal, they went home one after another with their bulging bellies in their hands.

The head of the village and the village chief stayed to chat with General Qin and others. At first, they were afraid to approach such a high-ranking official as General Qin, but later they became familiar with them and found that they were also kind-hearted people and were no longer afraid.

Occasionally, a few people can go to the fields together to plant crops and enjoy the pastoral fun.

While drinking tea and chatting, everyone discussed the matters of the breeding farm and the food factory. The two factories would start operations the day after Qinghe's coming-of-age ceremony, and the county magistrate Pang Ziqian would be invited to the factory in person to dig the ground and start construction.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye it is Chu Qinghe's coming-of-age ceremony.

In the early morning, the sunlight shines through the gauze-like window lattices and onto the courtyard of Chu Laoer's house.

The second Chu family's house was decorated with lights and full of joy.

The villagers came with gifts to congratulate.

A handkerchief in your house, a few eggs in my house;

Some bring some greens, some bring a hen;

Everyone brought the best gifts from home to celebrate the coming-of-age ceremony for Qinghe, the little lucky star in the village. For a while, the yard was filled with laughter.

In the courtyard, a solemn and sacred coming-of-age ceremony is about to be held.

Old Madam Qin prepared Qinghe's coming-of-age ceremony according to the standards of the coming-of-age ceremony in the capital.

An antique altar stands in the center of the courtyard, filled with various sacrificial items.

The altar is surrounded by red ribbons, which flutter gently in the wind, as if expressing the solemnity and sacredness of this special moment.

Qinghe took a bath early in the morning as arranged by Qin, and then dressed in a gorgeous plain brocade robe. Her long hair fell behind her like a waterfall, and was neatly combed.

Chu Qinghe was wearing a gorgeous dress, with delicate makeup, and was beautiful and charming. Her clear eyes revealed determination and maturity.

Amid the melodious sound of ancient music, Qinghe slowly walked towards the altar.

Her steps were light and steady, and each step was full of ritual.

Today’s presenter is my grandmother who was favored by General Qin throughout her life.

At this time, Old Madam Qin was standing in front of the altar, holding a jade comb in her hand. After Qinghe sat down in front of her, she began to comb Qinghe's hair.

After combing my hair, my aunt sang:

"On the auspicious day of the month, you will start to add Yuanfu. Abandon your young aspirations, follow you and become virtuous. The test of longevity is only Qi, and you will be blessed."

This symbolizes that the girl is about to say goodbye to her girlhood and enter adulthood.

Afterwards, Old Lady Qin led Chu Qinghe to burn incense to the ancestral tablet. She knelt on her knees and kowtowed three times devoutly.

Then, Chu Qinghe stood up and faced everyone. Everyone looked at the different Qinghe today and felt that she had really grown up in an instant.

When Qin saw her daughter and thought of everything she had done for the family recently, her eyes reddened and tears filled her eyes.

Such a good daughter has grown up after all, and may get married and leave home soon.

She recalled what her mother had said to her when she came of age, and now she said to Qinghe:

"Serve your parents with filial piety, and be kind to your children. Be gentle, honest, respectful, frugal, and modest. Do not be overbearing or arrogant, and do not flatter or deceive. The ancient teachings are the model, so you should abide by them."
