A family of three walked to Yejia Village.

When we arrived at Yejia Village, we found that it was cleaner and tidier than usual.

All the dead branches and leaves on the road were swept away, and there was not a single weed along the way.

Wherever I passed by, I saw villagers and children on the road, all dressed neatly.

No matter if they had patches on their bodies or wore old clothes, at least they were clean.

Ye Nanyue knew that County Magistrate Lu might have already made arrangements with the head of the village and told everyone in the village in advance.

When Ye Nanyue and her family of three came over, the villagers greeted them warmly when they saw them.

Ye Nanyue also responded enthusiastically, calling them uncles, aunts and grandmothers enthusiastically.

In the past, when she returned to the village, who in the village would not point fingers at her when they saw her?

Now, ever since Ye Nanyue took out potatoes and gave them to the villagers to plant, who wouldn't greet her with a smile when they saw her?

Lu Huaiyang came to Yejia Village yesterday. He was worried and wanted to check out the situation. He had already felt it.

In fact, this has been the case every time he came to Yejia Village recently.

But even if it happens many times, I still can't help but sigh in my heart.

Ye Nanyue is really not the same Ye Nanyue as before.

The family of three arrived at the Ye family. The men in the Ye family had all gone out to work, while Mrs. Hu and her two daughters-in-law were still cleaning the house, and they all looked a little nervous.

Seeing Ye Nanyue coming back was like seeing his backbone.

Mrs. Hu was the first to come forward and said, "Nan Yan, take a look. Is there anything else in this room that needs to be cleaned? Is it clean enough?..."

The women in the Ye family are all very virtuous, and the men are also very hardworking. Except for Ye Nanyue, the laziest one, no one in the family eats for free.

Even the smallest Hu Zi can help pull weeds.

Therefore, the Ye family has always been very clean and tidy.

I cleaned it up specially today, and it looks cleaner and tidier: "Okay, mother, let's leave it like this."

Mrs. Hu was still a little worried: "Should we put away these hanging corn cobs and garlic bunches? The village head said that the county magistrate is likely to come to our house and bring a master with him. I'm so worried and nervous."

Lu Huaiyang put down the bags he was carrying and said, "Don't worry, mother-in-law. This is all good."

It doesn't need to be deliberate to appear real.

Ye Nanyan also felt the same way. After thinking for a while, she said, "Mom, let's move the tables and chairs out of the house and put them under the jujube tree in the yard. If the county magistrate and his men come and want to have dinner with us, it will be convenient."

Lu Huaiyang also nodded: "Yes, move both tables over. There may be female relatives by then, so we can split them into two tables."

Mrs. Hu nodded nervously, not knowing where to put her hands. "Okay, okay! But, this... we don't have enough tables and chairs at home. Oh, I don't usually buy more. If the county magistrate is coming, should he bring his wife as well?"

"What should I do...If I neglect it, will I be beheaded?"

Seeing Hu's anxious look, Ye Nanyue reached out and patted Hu's hand helplessly, comforting her: "Mother, don't be too nervous. The county magistrate is here to inspect the planting situation in the village and the situation of our potatoes. They don't eat people, so what are you afraid of?"

These common people would indeed be nervous and scared when they saw officials. If they knew that it was the emperor who came, Hu would probably faint from fright!

Of course, it was Ye Nanyue. Even though she knew that these were just characters in the book, she was still very nervous at the moment!

She was among them, these were real people.

In an imperial society, an official, no matter how low his status, can easily decide your life or death.

So it is inevitable that these people are afraid.

Ye Nanyue patted the back of Hu's hand and said soothingly, "Mom, don't worry. Go to the headman's house and borrow some tables and chairs. It won't be a big problem."

"I've met the county magistrate and his wife. They're very easygoing. Don't be too nervous. If you make a mistake, it would be embarrassing. Just treat them normally and respect everyone around them. That's all."

When Ye Nanyue was speaking, her two sisters-in-law were also listening to her carefully.

After Ye Nanyan finished speaking, Mrs. Hu asked, "Really? My dear, what did you feel when you saw the county magistrate? Was it scary?"

Ye Nanyan was somewhat helpless and shook her head with amusement: "It's not scary, it's very easygoing. Don't be too nervous, it's okay."

Mrs. Hu nodded, patted her chest, and then went to the headman's house to borrow a chair.

Lu Huaiyang also went there and took two trips before he finally moved the chair over.

After bringing the chairs, Lu Huaiyang said, "You guys keep busy at home. Calculating the time, it should be almost time. I'll go to the village entrance with the headman to greet them. When they arrive, I guess we'll go to the fields first."

"Thank you, mother, and two sisters-in-law for preparing meals at home. I won't worry about anything else for now."

Lu Huaiyang didn't want to say much to Ye Nanyue, for fear that she would be nervous.

As long as she isn't nervous when she sees the county magistrate.

However, he didn't know that Ye Nanyue had already seen through the truth.

Ye Nanyan listened to his words and nodded immediately, saying, "Okay, husband, go with peace of mind. I know what to do."

After the tables and chairs were set, Ye Nanyue went into the kitchen with her two sisters-in-law to pack up the things Lu Huaiyang brought.

Lu Huaiyang not only bought a lot of ingredients, but also bought several sets of new bowls and chopsticks.

Ye Nanyue asked her eldest sister-in-law to boil water and her second sister-in-law to wash the dishes. After washing the dishes, she scalded the dishes and hung them up to dry.

Then he asked Mrs. Hu to get ten freshly laid eggs, as well as some white flour and milk that had been prepared earlier, and began to teach Mrs. Hu and her two sisters-in-law how to make egg cakes.

I made this today, just in time to serve it to the nobles in the palace, and I also taught it to my two sisters-in-law and Mrs. Hu.

The women were all learning very seriously, watching without blinking.

After Ye Nanyue baked the cake, everyone was surprised.

Ye Nanyue made two pots and tried to get her sister-in-law to make them too.

My sister-in-law is more talented. The third pot was baked by her and it looked pretty good.

Ye Nanyan suggested: "You will become proficient in this after making it a few times. Once you are proficient, you can make more and sell them in the county town."

"The eldest sister-in-law does it well, so she does it, and the second sister-in-law helps."

"When you have nothing to do, go sell them together. As for how you divide the money after selling it, it's up to you."

The eldest and second sisters-in-law looked at each other with joy on their faces, then looked at Mrs. Hu, waiting for her to speak.

Mrs. Hu said, "Nan Yan is right. It's time for our family to have some income."

The eldest sister-in-law, Mrs. Du, was quite straightforward. She said to Ye Nanyan, "Little sister, this is the method you taught us. We will sell it. What about you?"

The second sister-in-law, Wei, also said, "Yes, why don't you go and sell it? If we do that, wouldn't we be taking advantage of you?"

Ye Nanyue smiled and said, "This is what I taught you specifically. We are a family, so there is no question of taking advantage of others. I have taken advantage of you many times in the past."
