There is Room For the Poor Daughter - Chapter 900

[Chapter 900 Chapter 900, banquet]

Xiao Mansion.

The officials sat in the living room somewhat cautiously. They thought that Xiao Yeyang’s asking them to come to dinner was just a polite word, but they didn’t expect to actually call them over.

There was that active official, seeing the gloomy atmosphere, he smiled and had nothing to say: “Master Xiao, I don’t know what is installed on the windows and roof of your house? It’s winter, even if the house is not lit, it’s the same.” Bright hall.”

Xiliang is cold in winter, in order to prevent the cold wind from seeping in, heavy curtains will be hung on the doors and windows, so that the light in the room is very dim.

Xiao Yeyang smiled and said: “That’s glass.”

Fan Tong’s eyes lit up: “The Xiangyang Glass Factory just built outside the city produces this?”

Xiao Yeyang nodded: “When you leave later , take a few pieces back home, the glass factory has just been built not long ago, and it hasn’t produced much, and after the spring of next year, there should be some for sale in the city.”

Hearing this, everyone looked happy and thanked each other .

Fan Tong was more courageous, so he stood by the window and knocked on the glass, and said with a smile: “Our Ganzhou Wei is very windy and sandy. With this glass, we don’t have to change the window paper frequently in the future.”

Immediately, an official followed up and said: “Since After Mr. Xiao came, our life in Ganzhou Wei has improved a lot, not to mention other things, but honeycomb coal, which has benefited the people a lot.”

“Now that there is glass, it is conceivable that our future life will be better.” It’s getting better and better.”

Others quickly agreed: “That’s it.”

Xiao Yeyang smiled and chatted with everyone, and it didn’t take long before Defu walked in: “Master, the meal is ready, Madam said it’s OK Already .”

Xiao Yeyang stood up: “Everyone, follow me to the dining room for dinner.” After speaking, he walked out of the room first.

All the officials sat down in the dining room one by one, and soon, they saw maids coming in with plates of various vegetables.

Ganzhou Wei is too cold in winter, and the food will be cold soon after cooking. Daohua simply uses hot pot to entertain the officials of the guard.

Looking at the green vegetables on the table, many officials were moved.

In Ganzhouwei, it is really difficult to eat fresh vegetables in winter.

Unexpectedly, Mr. Xiao valued them so much. These vegetables must have been delivered from outside by the Xiao Mansion, right?

Fan Tong loves to eat. Looking at the vegetables that were still on the table, he hurriedly said: “Master Xiao, you are spending too much money. We can just eat whatever we want.”

Xiao Yeyang also knew that fresh vegetables are in the market Xiliang’s precious, smiled and said: “I have been in Ganzhou Wei for a year, and I have not invited everyone to dinner because I am busy with business. This is the first time I have invited everyone to my house. How can I be casual?”

“This It is a hot pot ingredient specially prepared by my wife. Considering your tastes, there are two kinds of flavors: spicy and non-spicy, please try it with your chopsticks.”

Everyone thanked them, then picked up their chopsticks one after another, and then got out of hand.

Dong Yuanxuan, Su Hongxin and Xiao Yeyang sat at the same table, looking at the dining room that became lively instantly, Su Hongxin said with a smile: “It’s a good idea for everyone to sit around and eat hot pot in winter.”

Dong Yuanxuan: “There is a premise Yes, there must be enough side dishes.” If they invite you to eat hot pot, they will probably only eat meat.

Su Hongxin immediately looked at Xiao Yeyang: “Where did my brother and sister get so many fresh vegetables?”

Xiao Yeyang said with a smile: “She built a greenhouse with glass on the village that was reclaimed.”

Su Hongxin hurriedly said: “Then I will take some back to eat when I leave.”

Xiao Yeyang squinted at the past: “The temperature here is too low, and the output of vegetables is not high.”

Su Hongxin didn’t want it anymore: “Then I will eat more now.”

Xiao Yeyang Shaking his head, when Su Hongxin and Dong Yuanxuan left, he still packed a basket of tomatoes, cucumbers, eggplants, etc. for them.

As for the others, only a few pieces of glass were obtained.

That’s it, everyone is quite satisfied.

After seeing off all the officials, Xiao Yeyang went back to his room.

When Daohua came back from work, she saw Xiao Yeyang lying on the kang with all four legs, and asked with a smile: “Is your subordinate eating well?”

Xiao Yeyang sat up and leaned on the head of the bed: “You brought out so many delicious foods to entertain them, and everyone ate so much oil.”

Daohua sat on the edge of the kang with a smile: “This time is not only a banquet for your colleagues, but also a celebration of your promotion to the commander. Naturally, I have to prepare more generously, otherwise, wouldn’t it be discrediting the palace?”

Xiao Yeyang smiled and hugged Daohua into his arms, and sniffed the fragrance of her hair.

Daohua leaned against Xiao Yeyang’s arms, and said with a smile: “This time you are killing chickens and monkeys again, and treating guests to dinner, the officials in the guard should listen to you, right?”

Xiao Yeyang laughed: “I still want to What you continue to do in the guard should stop.”

“That’s good.”

Seeing the tired look on Xiao Yeyang’s brows, Daohua took off her shoes and got on the kang: “Get down, I’ll give you Massage massage.”

Xiao Yeyang looked at Daohua: “I’ve been busy for a long time, aren’t you tired?”

Daohua: “Compared to your running around every day, I am nothing.”

Xiao Yeyang smiled, Lie on the Kang.

After waiting for Xiao Yeyang to lie down, Daohua sat on him and began to massage him.

Xiao Yeyang showed an expression of enjoyment on his face: “I really want to stay at home and not go out.” Daohua: “Danhe has been

taken back, you should be able to rest for a while?”

Xiao Yeyang shook his head: “Do you still remember Is that Ma Teng?”

Dao Hua nodded, “I remember, what happened to him?”

Xiao Yeyang: “That guy has some skills. I asked him to pay attention to the movement of the Xiliao people. Not long ago, he sent a message that the Xiliao people have been training soldiers for the past two years.”

“The frontier army from Xiliang It’s a mess, let’s not talk about combat capabilities, because the guards are incompetent, they can’t even eat, can such an army expect them to fight?” He

paused for a while.

“This time, in addition to promoting me as the commander of the Ganzhou Guards, Uncle Huang also gave me the Tiger Talisman that can mobilize the Xiliang Frontier Army.”

“There are four guards bordering Xiliang and Xiliao. Uncle Huang means that The other three guards also need to build an important military town like Ganzhou Wei.”

Daohua’s face collapsed: “Aren’t you going to be busy again?”

Xiao Yeyang nodded helplessly: “Building a military important town is a must. On the one hand, it’s convenient, on the other hand, I have to inspect the defense areas of the other three guards, and those frontier troops have to practice.”

Daohua was silent for a while, and said worriedly: “Didn’t you say before that Xiliang The nine guards, most of the commanders are the commanders, will they cooperate with you?”

Xiao Yeyang snorted: “I have a tiger charm, and the frontier soldiers dare not disobey orders.” Said, wrinkled Frowning, “If the guards don’t cooperate, it will indeed be troublesome.”

The rations of the frontier army are provided by the guards, and if the guards really take the opportunity to make things difficult, it will also give him a headache.

Xiao Yeyang sighed: “There are too few people I can use. They are all people who will fist up when they disagree with each other. There is a lack of counselors who can coordinate the relationship between all parties.”

Daohua: “Then what should I do? Write a letter When I return to Beijing, how many people can I ask my grandfather and uncle to help me introduce?”

Xiao Yeyang thought for a while: “That’s the only way to go. The education here in Xiliang is too backward, and nine and a half out of ten people can’t read big characters. One, it is too difficult to find a learned person who understands the local situation.”

These Daohua could not help Xiao Yeyang, so he could only say: “It may be that we have not been here for a long time, you can let Jin Lingwei Ask about it.”

Xiao Yeyang didn’t have much hope: “Even if there was one, it was gathered away. I’ll write to the capital later.”
