Chapter 822 Generous Rewards

ay was the opening day of Luo'an Academy. The children were still having fun and kept pestering their grandmother to go to Luo'an town for a look.The old woman also couldn't bear to part with her son...She supported her grandmother's arm, standing under the eaves. Seeing the maidservants and housekeepers playing, she couldn't help but smile and said, "Look, it's better to have more children at home, it's more lively."

“The old Madam smiled and replied, ‘As the Madam said, when Young Master Xingxing and Young Master Yuanyuan grow up, our home will be even more lively.’”

At this time, Jia Yin brought Shui Ling and Shui Yun over from the county princess's mansion. Seeing grandma standing at the door, she skipped forward excitedly and exclaimed, "Oh my, who is this old lady She's so beautiful! Could it be that she's the Queen Mother of Heaven come down to earth"

Old Mrs. Li was flustered by her granddaughter's antics, she raised her hand to adjust her hairpin and said with a reproachful tone: "You're such a grown girl, yet you still jump at every little thing!"

"I'm not used to wearing this outfit either. It's still Grandma who insists I dress like this, and she even did my hair!"

Grandma Chang was a round-faced old woman, and when she smiled, it was particularly joyful. At this moment, she said, "I see so many new clothes in the mistress's wardrobe. If you don't wear them, they will fade. I tried to persuade the mistress to dress up like this."

"Yes, that's the way to do it!" Jiayin hugged her grandmother's arm and smiled. "From now on, Grandma, you should dress up my grandma so beautifully every day."

Having said that, she ordered Shuǐyún again, “Take a look!”

Suiyun immediately took a pouch from her sleeve and handed it to Chang Mama.

Grandma hurriedly took it with a smile, and then bowed respectfully.

The entire family, with the greatest wealth, was known for their generosity, especially the county princess.

She had only been by the old lady's side for a short time, yet she had already received three rewards.

This is also why she served the old mistress with even more care.

It's not that she is greedy, but her diligence and sincerity are evident to everyone.

Li Laotai helped her granddaughter adjust her collar, and was very pleased with her granddaughter's outfit today.

The little satin jacket was a beautiful peach color and had wide sleeves. The collar and cuffs were trimmed with white fox fur, which made the granddaughter's complexion even rosier.

With the golden crown on her head and golden earrings, she looked so elegant and noble. It was a far cry from the ostentatious and vulgar feeling one often gets when seeing others wear gold!

"My little Fu Niu'er is so pretty today. After lunch, she'll go for a walk with Grandma in the village. I heard that your master's dragon and phoenix twins caught a cold, and your Uncle Dayong isn't here. Let's go see them!"

Mrs. Li instructed, "Please pick two more bunches of grapes for the children. The plumpest and most refreshing ones are best to eat when they have a fever."

"Sounds good, Grandma," Jia Yin readily agreed and instructed Shui Ling, "Later you go pick some grapes, remember to add half a basket of mandarin oranges as well."

"A cold wind and an orange will help you recover faster!"

Shuiling was quick, she turned her head and went straight back to the County Princess's mansion.

Soon, after dinner, Tao Hongying went to Er Cun.

When I opened the pickle shop two years ago, I built a small workshop next to it.

The weather has turned cold recently, and everyone loves to drink hot porridge at home, which also leads to a high demand for pickled vegetables.

The shop is doing well, and they have to restock supplies from time to time.

Especially kimchi, this thing is best to be pickled and fermented for three to five days in advance.

Today, Tao Hongying is going to take five or six women from the pickle shop to pickle more.

Lao Li and Jia Yin went to Hui Niang's place. Jia Yin not only brought fruit, but also dug up some small toys from her childhood and carried them over together.

The dragon and phoenix twins were a little downcast, but with Jiayin to keep them company and after eating oranges and grapes, they perked right up.

Seeing Hui Niang's dark circles under her eyes, she felt relieved and tried her best to persuade the old lady and Jia Yin to have lunch together.

Li Laotai was afraid she'd be tired, so she not only refused but also asked Chang Mama to stay and help look after the twins, urging Huiniang to take a nap.

Jia Yin supported Grandma and said, just as Xiao Xiao arrived at the doorstep, a group of people came walking down the road from afar.

Both the grandfather and grandson were very excited, thinking it was the Northern Expeditionary Army returning.

When they got closer, the two realized it was their own carriage.

As soon as the car door opened, seven or eight boys jumped out.

Li Lao Tai couldn't help but laugh and asked the eldest grandson leading the way, "Jia Ren ah, are you guys back from the city"

Jia Ren hurriedly led everyone forward to pay their respects to the old woman.

"Grandma, after the poetry meeting yesterday, we've been playing together all day and stayed at Earl's Manor."

"Well then, you two don't have to study lately, it's good to play around more." Li Laotai hurriedly greeted everyone, "Come on, all come inside, it's cold outside."

Brother Cat ran to pull his sister, anxiously presenting a treasure, "Sister, we won you two shops, and they're next to each other! You can do fresh produce business now!"

Jia Yin was completely baffled. After all, the person who returned yesterday to report only said that her brothers would be staying in the city for one night, and didn't say anything specific about the poetry meeting.

When their elder and second uncles returned, it was already pitch dark. After dinner, they each went to rest.

Where did these two shops come from

Could it be the highlight of the poetry contest

That's a huge bet!

Li Ge pushed his younger brother, saying with a reproachful tone: "Go inside and talk. Don't let your sister catch a cold!"

A crowd surged into the house, instantly warming up the cold hall.

Waterling and Shuicun were busy serving tea and snacks, until everyone's stomachs were warm.

Jia Yin then asked, "Was yesterday's poetry gathering fun"

Meowger and Zhimin Xiujie immediately became excited, chattering away at each other, almost vying to speak.

Hearing Wang Sheng and Liu Kui jump out again, Lao Tai Li and Jia Yin were both furious.

After hearing about Guli's stunning comeback, winning over both the Wang family and Liu family's shops, the two were filled with surprise and delight.

Lao Li laughed and clapped her hands, "Serves them right! Our family didn't covet those two shops, but they deserved a lesson!

"

“Last time, in Los Angeles, I didn't wipe them out completely. They didn't know when to stop, and now they regret it!”

"That's right, grandma!" Meowger, the little grandson, snuggled up to the old woman and acted cute. "Grandma, we're so amazing, shouldn't we be rewarded"

Grandma Li tapped her grandson's forehead and smiled, "Even if you don't tell me, Grandma won't wrong you. Come on, what do you want"

"Haha, we're having hotpot and drinking!" Mao Ge'er was delighted. "Yesterday outside, I didn't dare to let loose and play. Today back home, we're going to have a good drink!"

Li Laotai couldn't help but laugh and cry, "No one in the family likes alcohol, where did you get this little drunkard from"

Having said that, she looked towards her granddaughter, after all, eating hot pot required vegetables and the like, which needed to be picked from her granddaughter's greenhouse.

Of course, Jia Yin wouldn't be stingy. She immediately told her brothers to go into the greenhouse and pick some freely.

Mao Ge'er cheered, leading Zhi Min and Xiu Jie, tugging Guo Wenhao along, and rushed to the county princess's mansion.

Seeing that his masters had something to say, Gu Li bowed and said he was leaving to return to the academy.

Jia Yin stopped him and said, "In two days, Liu's and Wang's shops will be handed over. Go take a look. If it's suitable for opening a fresh food store, you should start making arrangements as soon as possible."

"When the time comes, I'll give you 10% of the year's profit as your reward. What do you think"ndeed, Mr. Wen and Liu Zhiheng both laughed uncontrollably.Liu Zhiheng patted Li Laoer's shoulder and shouted, "You're bullying the Wang family. They already had few brothers, and now you've driven on...
