Chapter 869: Happy Events [3]

"Oh, be good and don't cry. Your grandma from the Sixth Clan just has a loud voice. Let's not bother with her." Grandma Qin lowered her voice and coaxed little Yunping softly.

Qin Jingyi, Qin Xiaomai, Jiang Xiaozhu, and Xiao Fubao also gathered around the stove bed, coaxing little Yunping: "Don't cry, little Chuba. Your brother/sister has given you a beautiful lantern. Little Chuba is the child in Taifeng Town who has received the most lanterns this year..."

There was a lot of chattering, which was a bit noisy. Little Yunping twisted his body uncomfortably.

The four little kids saw it and cried out in excitement: "Little Chuba is moving, he is responding to us, he really understands what we are saying, little Chuba is amazing."

"Little Chuba is so smart, we can't delay him. Brother Yi knows a lot of words, so hurry up and recite to little Chuba. In this way, little Chuba will be able to speak a lot when he turns one year old." Xiao Fubao said.

"Yeah, sister Xiaomi said that early education is very useful. Maybe the child can speak eloquently at the age of three and become famous." Jiang Xiaozhu said.

Eryong's wife blushed for Xiao Yunping when she heard this, and said hurriedly: "Chuba doesn't move much usually. He is probably lazy, or he is like your uncle Eryong, he is dull and has no ability to make a name for himself."

Well, the workshop has a "literacy class" and Eryong's wife, who is the manager, has also learned a lot of idioms.

Little Fubao has been immersed in the joy of being a big brother recently. He shook his head when he heard this: "Aunt Eryong, that's not right. Sister Xiaomi said that if you talk and read to babies often, they will become very smart."

Papapa, he patted his chest and said, "I have been talking to my little Lubao and reading to him recently. He is very smart now."

Fu, Lu, Shou and Xi, Aunt Xu said that her grandchildren's nicknames will be given in this order.

Granny Qin rolled her eyes at Little Fubao and complained, "Your Second Aunt is only four months pregnant. The piece of meat in her belly hasn't even formed a fetus yet. How can she be so smart? You read to it in vain."

"It's not in vain. My little Lubo can understand and is smart." Xiao Fubao cares about Xiao Lubo the most now, and no one is allowed to say anything bad about Xiao Lubo.

"Sixth brother's wife, please talk less. Are you going to make little Fubao cry?" Grandma Qin said to Qin Liupo, and then said, "Keep your voice down. If you make little Chuba cry again, you won't be able to rest for half a day. Go back to work in the workshop."

Then she said, "Forget it. I think you have rested enough. Go and help Miss Yao, Nanny Meng San, and Nanny Xiao prepare festival gifts for the female workers. They will be distributed tomorrow."

Today is November 11th and tomorrow is November 12th. I will get a holiday gift after working for half a day, then have four days off and go back to work on the 17th.

"Fifth sister-in-law, I... I'll listen to you and go right away." Qin Liupo didn't want to go at first, but thinking that she might be able to bring some festival gifts home, she went happily.

Su knew what she was planning, but she was sorry: "Sixth Aunt has worked in vain. With Miss Yao and Old Nanny Xiao here, how could she succeed?"

Jiang Xiaozhu: "Yeah, even after failing so many times, Liu Po ​​is still confident that she will get something this time, but in the end, she gets nothing every time."

Hahahaha, this made everyone in the room laugh.

The laughter was a little loud, and little Yunping was not satisfied, so he started laughing again!

Everyone in the room burst into laughter again.

Eryong's wife looked at the old and young people surrounding Xiao Yunping to coax him, and sighed that this bad boy really had a good time.

Thinking of my deceased child, I couldn't help crying.

……

Dangdang Dangdang!

The sound of gongs was heard again in the Xinda Street area.

"Fellow villagers, please make way. The holiday gift from Wang's Charcoal Shop to Mr. Qin's family has arrived!"

"Mr. Hu's family from the Capital Restaurant has sent a holiday gift to Mr. Qin's family!"

"Mr. Zhao from the cotton goods store..."

Car after car rushed into the New Street area.

The villagers were already quite skilled and stepped aside to make way for the convoy.

only……

"Haven't these masters already sent festival gifts? Why are they sending again?"

"I don't know. These wealthy masters are like crazy, sending gifts to Mr. Qin's family one after another."

The villagers were very confused and thought that the master was just burning his money.

The villagers soon found out the reason.

Boom boom boom!

Boom boom boom!

"The sound of drums! This is the sound of war drums!"

"The sound of war drums? Why are there war drums? Could it be that the East Desert Army is coming?!"

"What? The East Desert Army is coming? Run, run for your life!"

Things in the countryside are so outrageous that with just a few words, a rumor was spread that an army from the East Desert was attacking.

Fortunately, three messengers rode up on horseback, banged the gong and shouted, "Because the distinguished guest is coming, the government army has sent a hundred soldiers from the second gate to provide protection! Don't panic, don't be afraid, just live your life as usual!"

This was shouted dozens of times to make sure everyone heard it, then the soldiers led their horses to the Mid-Street sentry post to deliver the letter to General Hua.

Hua Zongqi and the others nodded after hearing this: "Got it, we will go and report to Master Qin right away."

After hearing this, the three messengers left and went to the old street to inform the clerk's office.

The so-called distinguished guests were none other than the team of students led by Mr. Jing.

Regarding this matter, Silifang, the county government, and Qin Jiang's family all received the news in advance.

Therefore, when General Hua went to inform the Qin family, they were not too surprised and just prepared to entertain Mr. Jing for a simple meal.

But this is enough to keep the Qin family busy.

Grandma Qin called over Old Nanny Xiao, Madam Yao, and several stewards from the palace and said, "Draw up a menu that is within the rules but presentable."

"Yes." Old Nanny Xiao, Madam Yao, and the stewards from the palace responded and began to prepare the menu.

When Qin Xiaomi came back, she saw them busy with this matter. She was sitting in the armchair, supporting her chin with her hands, looking at them. Her expression was a little hard to describe.

"Xiaomi, you're back. Have you almost finished cleaning up the medicine workshop?" When Grandma Qin saw Qin Xiaomi, she asked with a smile, then got up and went to the kitchen to bring her a bowl of sweet soup: "Eat something to fill your stomach. I'm afraid we'll have to have dinner half an hour later tonight."

"We should be busy welcoming Mr. Jing and his friends. They are famous people, and even your Grandpa Jiang admires them."

When Mr. Jiang was alive, he told them about Taizhou Academy and the famous scholars there, and his eyes were full of admiration and yearning.

"Your Grandpa Jiang often recited a few lines of the poem "Visiting the Ancient Capital of Taizhou" when he was alive."

Grandma Qin was talking enthusiastically, but when she saw that Qin Xiaomi didn't agree with her, she was worried and asked hurriedly, "Xiaomi, what's wrong? What happened? Let's go back to the house and tell grandma."

The old lady was worried that her granddaughter might get into trouble when she went out, and she was extremely anxious.

"Grandma, I'm strong enough to kill bandits, who would dare to plot against me? I'm fine, you can rest assured." Qin Xiaomi smiled and explained the reason: "Grandma, after Mr. Ji came to live here for a long time, our family can no longer live a normal life."

Although she was greedy for money and power, her purpose in doing so was to be able to live a stable and peaceful life.

Now, life is more lively than a boiling oil pan.

However, this excitement was forced by Duke Yan, just to protect the Qin family... Otherwise, the Qin family would have been killed without a trace after setting up the Xiangwu Hall.

But the Qin family had to make this suggestion because the ban on migration trapped them here. If they wanted to survive the war, they had to allow many people to have military power.
