Qing He explained patiently:

"After my fourth uncle and my parents went to Daxia, they went out to do some work one day and encountered a group of hooligans bullying a pair of sisters. My fourth uncle rescued them and was also seriously injured. Later, the girl promised to marry my fourth uncle.

Fourth uncle and parents miss you all too much. I will definitely come back with them if I have the chance in the future."

The head of the village nodded and said, "No matter what, the fourth child's marriage is a great joy. Everyone is happy for her. When the fourth child gets married, we must prepare a big gift for him."

Qing He smiled and said, "Grandpa Lizheng, you don't need to prepare any gifts. I will tell Fourth Uncle about everyone's thoughts."

Aunt Chen said:

"How can that be? Your fourth uncle is getting married, and our village is happy too. But our gifts are not expensive, so please don't despise them."

"Yes, your fourth uncle was not valued in the old Chu family before, but fortunately he has a good life with your parents. We are all happy for him."

"Ah, the Chu family is guilty of something. If they had treated the second brother's family well before, they wouldn't be broken up now!"

The head of the village said:

“Well, on such a beautiful day, let’s not talk about that awful family anymore.

Today, He girl, Prince Chen, the county magistrate and his wife have all returned, and everyone is busy helping to prepare dinner to welcome them."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard voices coming from the yard.

"Uncle Lizheng, He girl, I heard that He girl is back. I was worried that there is not enough food at home, so I brought all the chickens and ducks from home to cook for dinner tonight."

Qing He stood up, walked over to her and said, "Aunt, you don't have to be so polite. I can just catch a few from the breeding farm."

"How can that be? Today, you must accept Aunt's chickens and ducks. If I hadn't told you Uncle Peng's furniture, our lives wouldn't be so good. These are all gifts from your uncle and me. Aunt will be unhappy if you don't accept them."

As she spoke, Aunt Chuanpeng stuffed the thing into the hands of Sun Hu who was standing next to Qinghe.

"Sun Hu, quickly send these chickens and ducks to the kitchen."

Sun Hu took it and said, "Hey, I'll send it over right away."

Qing He smiled and said, "Aunt, thank you and Uncle Chuan Peng. Don't leave tonight. Come stay and have dinner with us!"

At this time, several villagers came in, holding vegetables, grains, pork, vegetable oil and other food.

When everyone heard Qinghe say that he wanted to keep them for dinner, they all took action to help the servants who stayed at Qinghe's house pick vegetables, prepare food, and light the stove.

While everyone was busy, the owner of Yuelai Restaurant in the town, Shi, came to Qinghe's house in a horse-drawn carriage with two chefs.

As soon as they entered the door, they bowed to Qing He, Bai Li Ye, and Pang Ziqian and his wife:

"Greetings to the prince and princess, and to the county magistrate and his wife."

When Qing He saw him, the shopkeeper was very kind, stepped forward to help him up, and said:

"Shopkeeper Shi, the two masters, please stand up. How are you spending the New Year?"

The three were very excited to hear that the princess was still concerned about whether they were having a good New Year, and they hurriedly replied:

"My princess, we are all doing well. Before the New Year, our store distributed a lot of monthly money and red envelopes, as well as holiday supplies. We had a prosperous New Year.

We would like to thank the prince and princess. "

Baili Ye smiled and said, "These are the rewards you deserve for your hard work. If you continue to work hard, you will earn more and more."

The three of them promised earnestly: "We will work hard and do our best to serve the restaurant."

Qing He smiled and nodded: "Manager Shi, you guys are so thoughtful. Why did you come here specially today?"

The shopkeeper replied respectfully:

“Princess, Baiyi came back early to inform us.

I heard that you, the prince, and the county magistrate have returned to the village. I thought you must have had a hard time traveling all the way.

I will bring the restaurant's chef over to cook a table of delicious food for everyone, as a token of our appreciation."

Qing He said with emotion: "Boss Shi, two masters, thank you very much. I'll thank you for your hard work tonight."

The two chefs also said quickly: "Don't worry, Princess, we will do our best to make sure everyone is satisfied with the meal."

Qinghe knew that the only vegetables here were cabbage, radishes and some dried vegetables, so she took out spinach, rapeseed, zucchini, long-haired vegetables, beans, celery, eggplant and other vegetables from the space.

"These are the vegetables we grew in the greenhouse in Beijing. Chefs, please cook these dishes as well!"

Everyone looked at these fresh vegetables in amazement, with magic in their eyes.

"Oh, it's amazing that there are still such fresh vegetables in the middle of winter."

"Yes, Princess, how did you grow this? If we have vegetables to eat in winter, then everyone will be blessed."

The head of the village and the others also echoed, "Yes, He girl, we haven't seen so many fresh vegetables in winter."

Qing He smiled and said, “Time is tight this year, so I built a greenhouse in the suburbs of Beijing, so that the people of Beijing can eat fresh vegetables this winter.

Grandpa Lizheng, this year you can lead us to open up more wasteland and plant more fields. You can also build greenhouses in the winter so that we can have vegetables to eat and sell, and you can earn extra income then."

The village head was very happy when he heard this.

"Really? That would be great."

The village chief rubbed his hands excitedly, his eyes full of anticipation.

"He girl, is it difficult to grow vegetables in this greenhouse? Can people in our village learn it?"

Qing He explained patiently:

"Grandpa Lizheng, greenhouse planting is not difficult. As long as everyone studies hard, they will definitely be able to learn it.

When it was time to build a greenhouse, I asked someone to bring a detailed greenhouse planting manual to help everyone build the greenhouse. "

The villagers were very excited when they heard this.

"That's great! If we can grow vegetables in winter, our lives will be more hopeful."

The shopkeeper Shi also said with emotion: "Princess, this idea is really great. From now on, our restaurant will also be able to supply fresh vegetables in winter."

The two chefs couldn't wait to pick up the fresh vegetables and start thinking about how to make delicious dishes.

"Princess, these vegetables look fresh and delicious. We must make good use of them and let everyone taste this delicious winter food."

Qing He smiled and said, "Then I'll leave it to you."

As the kitchen was busy, delicious dishes came out one after another.

There are fragrant chicken, duck, fish and meat, as well as refreshing and delicious fresh vegetables.

Everyone sat together, enjoying the delicious food, and laughter echoed in the house.

"He girl, with you leading us, our lives in Shangao Village are getting better and better." Aunt Chen said with emotion.

Baili Ye stood up and said solemnly:

"The lives of the people in Shangao Village, Qinghe Town and even Tailai County will get better and better in the future.

Today we are going back to the village together, just as we will have a New Year's dinner together, wishing everyone good health and a prosperous life in the coming year.

Let us work together to make Dasheng more prosperous.”

Everyone stood up and raised their glasses in response.

“I hope Shangao Village will get better and better, and I hope Tailai County will prosper.”

As cups and plates interspersed, a warm atmosphere filled the room.

After dinner, everyone helped to clean up the mess and the atmosphere was still lively.

Qinghe took out some digestive tea and chatted with everyone while drinking tea.
