499 Expected Surprise

Three days later, Xiao Ming came to deliver a letter, and Master Qin and his family set the wedding date on the tenth day of March.

"Master, today is already the sixth day of the first lunar month. The farm has already started preparing the dishes for the banquet. The farmers are all very happy to hear that we are going to have a banquet together."

Thirteen-year-old Xiao Ming has now grown to Ping An's shoulders. Among those getting married is his older brother, and the little guy is so happy that he can't stop smiling.

"Master, my courtyard has been decorated and is very festive. Master Qin said that there are two more couples getting married, which means there are six couples. Brother Fang Wu said he wanted to get married here, but it's too late."

Ping An smiled. This time when they returned to their hometown, he asked Fang Wu, Wu Qi, Hu Zi and Qing Shi to go back and get married, but they would bring their wives with them after the marriage. Before they got married, the master had already given him the deeds of the four women.

The wives of the four men were chosen by their parents, and they were all female doctors in the Medical Valley.

The small courtyard on the village still needs to be built, and his business as a parent is getting bigger and bigger.

"In another six or seven years, I should help Xiao Ming get married."

Xiao Ming opened his mouth and laughed: "Master, you like to laugh at me. How old am I? Master, when my brother gets married, I will come back to you. Master Da Wu said that I am good at training. Sometimes he even asks me to help him train new people. Liu Hu likes to follow me."

Liu Hu was officially brought into the village two months ago and is the same age as Xiao Ming.

Ping An held up two fingers and said, "Xiao Ming, stay in the village for another two years and learn your skills well. You will have plenty of time to be with me in the future."

"Of course, I will follow the young master for the rest of my life. My brother said he will too. Even if the 20-year contract is up, we will not leave and will extend it for another 20 years."

Ping An rubbed his head: "Okay, go back, otherwise the teacher will chase you away soon. Tell Master Qin that the farmer's wedding will be held together. According to the old rules, for the farmer's wedding, the couple will get an extra ten taels of silver in red envelopes. Two rooms will be vacated over there as a bridal chamber, and a set of daily necessities will be purchased for them.

My mother will go to the village a day in advance, but my master, my master's grandfather and I will rush over that morning. Please talk to Master Qin."

"Understood, Master."

The young master gave each of these personal guards a red envelope of 60 taels, as did the female doctor. The total amount given to his brother and sister-in-law was 120 taels. The daily necessities such as cabinets and quilts were all paid from the public account of the manor.

He is probably the only young master in the world who has such a good master, right?

In the afternoon, he asked Xiao Wu to go back home, tell his mother everything, and then talk to the master, who also agreed to go.

Wenzhu is also Bao Shu's son. In the master's heart, Bao Shu's position is similar to that of Fang Xiao brothers.

Three days later.

Ping An brought his husband and grandmaster to wait for the master at the city gate, and they agreed to meet at noon.

Soon, the master's carriage arrived, and the great master also came.

The two old men were of similar age and got into a carriage directly. Mr. Wang naturally followed them.

"Master, I guess the Grandmaster will scold me when he goes back. We are almost the same age, but I call him Grandmaster and the other one is called Great Grandmaster. There is a gap in seniority, right?"

Sun Sicheng rolled his eyes at him and said, "You think too much. Let's talk about our own things. It's a pity that Wenzhu's parents, grandparents and grandparents can't come to get married."

There was nothing that could be done about it. He needed people who knew Youzhou and Qingzhou well to help look after them, while the younger generation like Wenzhu wanted to follow Ping'an and the others.

Wanli's two sons and He Jin's son are now with Changqing and Changyuan.

When the carriage arrived at the farm, Wan Changsheng, Sun Hongyu and Mei Niang came out to greet them.

Several elderly people were amazed by the scenery in the village.

How can this be a farm? It's like a paradise.

There are flowers everywhere, even the air you breathe is sweet, and new houses are lined up in an orderly manner.

Are there so many people living in the village?

Ping'an was quite proud. There was a wedding in the village today and the atmosphere was joyous. Everyone, young and old, wore new clothes and the children were all smiling as if it was a holiday.

The two old men walked towards the peach blossom forest, and Sun Sicheng and Master Wang followed closely behind.

"Ping An told me how beautiful this place is, but I didn't quite believe it. I thought there was no such a nice farm. It seems I wronged Ping An. Now it seems that this place is even more beautiful than he said.

I have to come and stay here every now and then. Living here will help me live a few more years. Ping An even said he would leave a small yard for me."

When the old man of the Sun family heard this, he said, "That's great. Sicheng has a room here, so I'll stay there. We can come together later, under the peach blossom forest, to chat, play chess, and practice Tai Chi together in the morning. What do you think?"

Old Master Wang laughed, "Good, why not? This place is much better than the city. It's a pity that Ping An was taken away by Si Cheng, otherwise I would have liked to have him become my grandson-in-law."

"Haha, you can't snatch him away. My Sicheng has raised Ping'an as his son-in-law since he was a child. Besides, Ping'an is the closest to you now, no one can compare to him. Are you still not satisfied?"

"Kiss them all, hahahaha, kiss them all, hahahaha."

Sun Sicheng and Master Wang also laughed.

A smile makes you ten years younger. The elderly will indeed feel much better in such a good environment, and when they are in a good mood, their health will naturally be good as well.

What they want most is that the elderly are in good health and live a long life.

"Sicheng, if nothing unexpected happens, Ping An may give all of us a surprise this time, but we can't tell you for now. There are still ten days left, and the results will be out in ten days."

"Master, you have made Ping An suffer a lot over the years."

Master Wang shook his head: "How could that be? How can that be called suffering? There are some sufferings in this world that are sweet to endure.

This child has given me so many surprises, and I, an old father, love him dearly. We didn’t expect that we would have such a deep connection with this child. The connection between people is simply indescribable.”

On that day, they had an unforgettable wedding banquet at the farm. Sixteen tables were set up in the huge restaurant. One hundred and fifty to sixty people gathered together to hold weddings for six couples.

Mr. Wang could never have imagined that one day he would have such a feast with his old father. There was a big steaming iron pot on each table with many ingredients stewed in the pot. The taste was surprisingly good and they enjoyed the meal very much.

He had been raised in luxury since he was a child. There were many servants and farmers in his family, but he had never gotten along with them like this, just like the villagers.

From that day on, the two old masters decided that in spring, summer and autumn, they would come together when they had nothing to do, or learn how to grow vegetables, and in winter they would go to the Sun family's hot spring resort to hibernate, striving to live to be a hundred years old.

Ten days passed in the blink of an eye.

March 20th.

The entire capital city was shaken.

The eldest son's apprentice, the 19-year-old Ping An, actually won the first place in the imperial examination.

In the Great Zhou Dynasty, it was not uncommon to get three first place in the imperial examination, and some people even got four first place.

But he still ranked first in the imperial examination, which is rare.

Many people are wondering what other people’s children eat and why they are so smart?
