I traveled through ancient times to escape famine with my arch-rival, the movie star.

If these two people kneel down and beg, perhaps her mother will be attracted and it is possible that she will show some kindness.

But isn't it a bit wishful thinking to order her with this attitude and to confine her with the word "good person"?

Did your family make their fortune by daydreaming?

However, since these two people were so troublesome, there was no guarantee that they would not continue to come to the house in the future. When Shen Ying saw that everyone in the family was there at lunch, she mentioned that people should not have any sympathy for the exiled prisoners.

"It's not that we need to be cold and evil people, but we are worried that if we come into contact with them, it will bring trouble to ourselves and our families. What if they have enemies who follow us and see us helping them, what will they do?"

Qiao Youtian and his wife quickly agreed.

As for the Lin mother and son, they were only focused on taking care of the miscellaneous chores for Qiao Youtian's family. Even if people from other branches of the Shen family needed their help, they had to come back and ask for permission. This was safe.

After lunch, Shen Ying went out on horseback and came to the relatively safe area Sai Yang mentioned. Because the sun was still strong, she set up the tent first. The tent automatically inflated with one button, which was very convenient.

She sat by the tent, drinking sweet water, feeling the sea breeze, and occasionally digging sand in the shade and stacking stones.

When the sun wasn't so strong and there was no one around, she put on a light sun-protective swimsuit, warmed up, put on her goggles, and walked into the water.

Step by step, wrapped in water, the buoyancy generated seemed to push the soles of her feet off the ground little by little.

Gradually, Shen Ying could no longer hold her breath and walked underwater. She took a breath, relaxed her body, and dived underwater.

The cool sea water, the clear seabed, the surrounding reefs, corals, and small fish all attract Shen Ying to chase them.

If you meet someone you don’t know, just use the silicone spatula tied around your waist to touch them.

After swimming enough in the water, go ashore and have a BBQ.

Small pieces of wagyu beef are fried on the grill, and the lamb rolls, tofu in soy sauce, and barbecue ingredients are extremely delicious.

I felt it was not satisfying enough, so I took out a certain brand of pasta, cooked it, seasoned it, and put it on a plate with wagyu beef cubes and broccoli and cherry tomatoes.

Eat until you are full, and you don’t have to think about anything, do anything, or move. Just watch the rise and fall of the sea.

The world is so quiet that it seems like I am the only one left.

I went into the mall to wash my hair and take a shower, then changed into the ancient costume I had worn before. After cleaning up the mess, I rode back on horseback.

As the sun set, Shen Ying returned home after spending a pleasant afternoon.

I found that the village chief had come to my house.

The expression seems a little flattering?

"The girl is back." Lin came over to lead the horse, and the word "girl" also attracted the attention of the village chief.

He stood up and walked towards Shen Ying.

It turned out that he wanted to ask Shen Ying for help in entertaining distinguished guests.

He went to Mr. Shen's house first, thinking that the younger generations would obey the old man's words, which would be the easiest way.

As a result, Mr. Shen said that the children were the ones who made the decisions at home, and he and his wife were supported by the children. He could not help the village chief and asked the village chief to ask himself.

Well, I went to ask the other two families who raised chickens and ducks or were doing business, but I didn't expect that after all the twists and turns, he was told to come to Shen Ying.

"Distinguished guest? What is your status? Can you tell me?"

"Someone in his family is a fourth-rank official. In our area, he is indeed considered an honorable person."

Shen Ying inevitably thought of those people who were exiled here yesterday.

What a coincidence, a noble person came just as a family was exiled.

"Why are you here, sir? Why do you want us to entertain you?"

"Your Excellency is here to check on the work in the mountains for your relatives. I heard that there are more than a dozen shops in the city. If he is willing to promote the men in the village..."

Oh, so you are trying to find a way out for the young people in the village. No wonder you are so active and diligent.

"Will that be of any benefit to me?" Shen Ying asked.

This village chief established a relationship of mutual exchange of interests with the other party from the very beginning, and would give the other party some benefits in everything she did.

But this does not mean that she is a blindly obedient villager who will do whatever the village chief orders her around.

Since they were going to entertain the guests at home, they must have taken a fancy to the chickens, ducks, and geese raised by the second branch of the Shen family, the freshly made tofu, and the wild game and mountain products that the third branch could collect at any time.

This matter is of no help to the Shen family, so she needs to be paid.

Be it money or anything else.

Otherwise, even if she agrees, she will have to give additional benefits to other households later, which would be such a big mistake for her.

There is no one in the family who needs to go to the city to work as a waiter or servant.

The village chief gritted his teeth and said, "You want that bamboo forest, don't you? I'll use my connections and my reputation to help you negotiate. If you entertain the distinguished guests well, I'll rent you the bamboo forest and the land for ten or twenty years, depending on your needs."

"Okay." Shen Ying perked up and chatted with the village chief for a while. She learned that the so-called distinguished guest would be here for three days and two nights and then would return to the city.

"Then our family will only take care of food and living environment." Shen Ying asked the village chief's house to clear out the largest room, and she would bring people to decorate it.

As for food, three meals a day will be delivered on time.

The village chief rubbed his hands. "And I heard you have some good wine at home."

oh~~~

Shen Ying suddenly realized that it was no wonder that the Shen family was not the only one that cooked delicious food. The reason why she had to find the Shen family seemed to be because she was thinking about the good wine.

"If we're only entertaining one guest, then it will definitely be enough." Shen Ying said. "If there are more people who want to drink, then it may not be possible. You'd better brag and control the amount of wine. Others drink happily and let their followers drink as much as they want, but my family can't afford so much."

Are you bragging?

The village chief felt that his world seemed to be bright and dark, and he felt confused.

But the nobleman's food and lodging should be solved. Although the Shen family has been here for a short time, the living conditions and Shen Ying's level of sophistication are unmatched. They will definitely not disappoint the nobleman.

After taking on this job, Shen Ying naturally had to attend another meeting.

"When the third room delivers the meal, be smart, don't talk too much, and just blame the ingredients for everything."

"I will get the tofu, chicken, duck and eggs from the second house. After serving this guest, I will make up for the shortfall in one go. I will never let anyone suffer a loss. If you are not happy, you can ask. In fact, it is not impossible for me to rush to the town as soon as possible."

"Okay, why not? Since this is an opportunity for the Shen family to show off their strength, why not do it? We all do it. After receiving guests once, we may receive them again in the future. Our reputation will be established. Are you still worried about not making money?"

Then Shen Ying allowed them to discuss freely, and finally said: Let’s adjourn the meeting.

As long as they remember to take the big house as the core, no matter how small the cohesion is, once it begins to cohere, it will eventually form a truly powerful core.

The noble man came two days later. During these two days, Shen Ying went sightseeing, which was considered a break for herself as she had been busy recently.

By the way, they showed the village chief how much the Shen family cared about completing the village chief's commission and receiving the so-called distinguished guests.
