Chapter 265 You Don’t Understand

Ding Gaochang had tasted the tofu sold in Zhuang Qingning's tofu shop and liked it very much. Now that he heard that there was a tofu feast, his greed was aroused and he nodded hurriedly, "It's better to obey than to be respectful."

After saying that, he smiled and went into the yard with Zhuang Qingning.

The villagers who came out with Zhuang Qingning to see the so-called noble man of Zhuang Jingye, came back to their senses from their shock after seeing Zhuang Qingning and Ding Gaochang chatting happily as they entered the yard.

"Just now Miss Ning called him Lord Ding? Which Lord Ding?"

"You don't even know this. This is our county's magistrate, Lord Ding Gaochang!"

"Just now, Lord Ding said that he heard that Miss Ning was warming the room, so he came here specially?"

"Yes, he also said that he brought the county magistrate's calligraphy. That was written by the county magistrate himself. Look at this treatment. I wish I could get more calligraphy from the county magistrate someday. It doesn't even have to be a scroll. Even if it's just one word, I will definitely keep it as a gift!"

"When did this Ning girl become so close to Lord Ding? From Lord Ding's tone, it seems that they are more than just ordinary friends."

"Would she have told you when she became friends with Lord Ding? I don't find it strange that Miss Ning is so good at making money. Anyway, I only remember one thing, and that is that you don't need to worry about the rest."

"What is it?"

"Follow Ning girl, good things will happen to you in the future!"

"That's right, absolutely right. You have to work hard with Miss Ning in the future."

"Yes, yes."

“…”

The villagers have all made up their minds and decided to follow Zhuang Qingning and work hard in the future so that they can live a better and more prosperous life.

The villagers were also thinking about taking a good look at what the county magistrate, whom they had never seen before, looked like. They all crowded into the yard, wanting to take a good look at Ding Gaochang's appearance and see if they could take this opportunity to talk to the county magistrate.

The villagers were overjoyed, but Zhuang Jingye had a bitter face.

"Dad, what's wrong with you? Weren't you so happy just now?" Zhuang Le'an looked at Zhuang Jingye with some confusion.

It's really strange. Originally, he just wanted to ask for a calligraphy. Now that Lord Ding is here and brought the calligraphy, his father doesn't seem very happy. Why? Zhuang Jingye looked at Zhuang Le'an and his lips twitched several times, but in the end, he didn't say anything. He just reached out and patted Zhuang Le'an on the shoulder.

Forget it, you don’t understand how hard your father has gone through.

Thinking of this, Zhuang Jingye sighed even more and shook his head.

Originally, one thought that Ding Gaochang had come to congratulate County Magistrate Xu in person because he wanted to ask for calligraphy for Zhuang Qingning's family's greenhouse, so he came to congratulate him in person because of his sincerity as a village chief.

But now, it seems that Zhuang Qinghe and Ding Gaochang knew each other before and they seem to have a pretty good relationship.

Obviously, Ding Gaochang was able to come because of Zhuang Qingning, not because of him.

Well, after all, he was overthinking it.

Those words I just said, those brilliances I showed off, will eventually turn into a slap in the face...

The only thing to be thankful for now is that he was trying to be clever just now and didn't openly say the words "he was invited here". At least he saved his face and didn't end up being so embarrassed.

Otherwise...

Zhuang Jingye sighed again.

Zhuang Le'an still didn't understand what was wrong with his father. He hesitated for a long time, holding his ears. Then he laughed and said, "By the way, Dad, on the way here, Lord Ding kept praising you."

"Oh?" Zhuang Jingye's dark eyes suddenly brightened up. He grabbed Zhuang Le'an's arm and said, "Tell me quickly, how did Lord Ding praise me?"

"Master Ding said that you are a good village head. You always care about the villagers and the village affairs. That's why I wanted to ask the county magistrate for his calligraphy. The purpose is to praise the model and supervise the affairs of the village."

"Oh, yes, Lord Ding also said that it was thanks to you, Dad, that you brought this matter up between him and the county magistrate, otherwise he wouldn't have known about Ning's warm room and he wouldn't have been able to give away the gift in his hand." Zhuang Le'an said with a smile.

"Now that you put it that way..." Zhuang Jingye chuckled.

It seems that he played a very crucial role, otherwise, Lord Ding would not know about this matter. If he did not know about this matter now, he would definitely feel full of regrets if he knew about it later.

And he helped Ding Gaochang eliminate this regret!

So, he still played a key role.

I told you, he is the head of the village, how could he have made a mistake? Zhuang Jingye was immediately elated, raised his chin, put his hands behind his back, and went into the yard.

Zhuang Le'an saw that Zhuang Jingye was dejected just now but now he was smiling happily. He scratched the back of his head again and again in surprise.

I really can't figure out my father.

But he couldn't care too much at the moment. He just hurried into the yard to help take care of Ding Gaochang, congratulate Zhuang Qingning, and say hello to the villagers he hadn't seen for a long time.

Although Ding Gaochang repeatedly emphasized when he came that people don't need to care about his identity, and that he only came today as an elder to congratulate Zhuang Qingning on moving into a new home, in the eyes of the villagers, Ding Gaochang is the county magistrate and an official. How can an official sit outside and talk with the people and eat at the same table together?

Even though Ding Gaochang and Zhuang Qingning strongly requested, others still stayed away and didn't get close at all.

Finally, they had no choice but to set up a table for Ding Gaochang and others in the main room of the house, accompanied by Zhuang Qingning, Zhuang Yonghe, Zhuang Jingye, Zhuang Mingliang and several other prestigious people in the village.

"Ms. Zhuang's house is indeed well built." Ding Gaochang exclaimed repeatedly after following Zhuang Qingning to visit the new house.

From the moment I first arrived at the gate, I thought it was no different from an ordinary house. However, once I entered the gate, I saw that the welcoming wall was not like an ordinary wall in ordinary houses, but a hollow flower wall with a layer of lush roses on it. It was midsummer and the roses were in full bloom. The rosy-red roses were vying for beauty and were vying for beauty among the green leaves, which was quite a beautiful sight.

The small vegetable plot and flower garden in the courtyard were all neatly maintained, the vegetables were lush, the flowers were gorgeous, the swing on the side was creaking, the grape trellis had climbed up to the top, lush and green, and the tall and short bamboos on the wall were also full of green...

In a small courtyard like this, whether you are watching the young seedlings swaying in the wind in the spring, feeling the cool breeze and looking at the bright moon in the summer night, watching the wild geese flying north and south in the autumn, or brewing tea by the warm stove and looking at the snow-capped world of ice and glass in the winter, I am afraid it must be very comfortable.
