Xu Chunsheng said, "Uncle Dashan, I kowtowed to you for the younger generation in this village. You deserve it, Uncle Dashan!"

The old man said, "Okay, don't thank me anymore. You and your father can have lunch at my house and try my wine. Besides, let's discuss the road construction!"

The village chief agreed.

Wang's mother-in-law, daughter-in-law and other three knew that the village chief would stay at home for lunch, so they prepared a few more dishes, put them on the table, and the whole family sat down.

The old man sat next to the village chief and took out a jar of wine and filled the village chief's glass. It was the first time the village chief had seen red wine, so he asked, "What kind of wine is this? Why is it red?"

Qibao said, "Grandpa Village Chief, this is the wine I told you about last time. It's delicious!"

The village chief was a little surprised and said, "You really made this wine? I really want to try it."

The old man said, "Didn't this girl have a master? Her master has traveled a lot and has seen a lot. He mentioned it to her, and she immediately insisted on learning how to do it. You know, she's my only precious granddaughter, so I let her do everything. I didn't expect this girl to actually do something like that!"

The village chief was even more surprised and asked, "When did Qibao become a disciple? How come I didn't know?"

The old man said, "We didn't think of making it public at the time. Isn't it you, the village chief? We won't hide it either. Qibao's master is quite mysterious. He's traveling around the world now, and we don't know when he'll be back!"

The village chief said, "I see. I was wondering if Qibao was different from the other girls in the village. It turns out she has an incredible master! I'd really like to try this wine!"

The reason why the old man told the village chief that Qibao had become a disciple was because his family was going to live in the village. As time went by, Qibao's differences would sooner or later be noticed by others, so he informed the village chief in advance today.

The village chief took a sip of the wine, smacked his lips, and after a while he said, "It's really a good wine! It has an indescribable fragrance and a mild nature. It's really delicious after one sip! I feel a lot lighter! Good wine!"

The old man said, "Since the village chief likes to drink, then my brother and I will drink to our heart's content!"

Xu Chunsheng said, "Uncle Dashan, Dad, you still have to discuss the road construction. You can't get anything done if you're drunk!"

The old man also poured Xu Chunsheng a glass of wine and said, "Let's drink and talk at the same time. Chunsheng, you should try this wine and see how it tastes!"

Xu Chunsheng looked at the particularly beautiful wine, his throat rolling, and said, "Okay, then I'll try it!" Then he picked up the wine glass and took a sip. His eyes lit up and he said, "It's delicious, not too strong, just like my dad said!"

The old man got back to the point and said, "Village Chief, this is what I'm thinking. All the strong laborers in the village are working in my family now. We need people to grow vegetables in the greenhouse. As for the people who are going to build the road, do you know of anyone suitable?"

The village chief pondered for a moment and said, "We can find them, but how much do you plan to pay them?"

The old man said, "Road construction is hard work. I plan to pay each person 25 cents!"

The village chief was surprised and said, "So much? Fine, I'll leave this to you!"

The old man said, "Then I'll trouble you, Village Chief. We also need to buy stones, sand and other things. I wonder if you know where I can buy them?"

The village chief smiled and said, "Brother, don't worry about it. Your family has spent so much money to build roads for the village, so as the village chief, I will do more. Leave these things to me."

The old man said, "Okay, I'll leave those matters to the village chief. I'll let the second son follow you. If there's anything, just tell him!"

Xu Laoer said, "Dad, don't worry, I will definitely get this done!"

The old man nodded and said, "Then we'll start construction when the road is easier to travel on. We'll find more people and see if we can finish it before the New Year."

The village chief patted his chest and said, "Okay, brother, don't worry, just leave the road construction to me. I will definitely make it beautiful!"

The matter was settled. After dinner, the village chief was about to go home. The old man stuffed a jar of wine into the village chief's hand and said, "Village chief, you like this wine too. Take this jar back and drink it slowly. When you're done, come back and have a drink!"

The village chief didn't hesitate to pick up the wine, say hello to the Xu family, and then take his son home!

After the Xu family had finished packing, Wang asked with some concern, "Old man, you said the road workers are getting 25 cents a day, which is 5 cents more than the villagers working in the greenhouse. Will the villagers feel uncomfortable?"

The old man said, "I've considered it. Road construction is indeed much more tiring than working in a greenhouse, so it makes sense to pay them more. Another point is that greenhouse work is a long-term job, which is different from road construction!"

Uncle Xu said, "Dad is right. Our villagers won't think too much of it. When the time comes, we'll tell them about it. I guess they'll be so happy to hear about the road construction!"

After hearing this, the others stopped talking. Since the old man had made the decision, they just had to support it.

In the afternoon, the four of them sat together making cotton-padded jackets. Wang said with some worry, "I wonder how Wenwu and the others are doing in town. It's been raining for the past few days, and I haven't had a chance to visit them."

Zhang said, "Mom, don't worry. If anything happens, someone from the barbecue restaurant will come and inform you."

Mrs. Li also comforted her, "Yes, mother, they are not young anymore. It's time for them to be more independent. We, as elders, can't take care of them forever!"

Lin also said: "What the eldest and second sisters-in-law said is right. Besides, the children are in the academy during the day and in the barbecue restaurant at night. It's not far away, so you don't have to worry!"

Wang said, "I just wonder if the children have gotten used to living in town after not being able to go home for a few days."

Zhang said, "Wenwu and Zhiyong are older, they will take good care of the younger brothers!"

After hearing what her three daughters-in-law said, Wang felt relieved a little. She missed her grandson very much after not seeing him for a few days, even though she could see him every day.

…………

After a few days, the weather was good and the road was passable. The villagers started to work. After a few days of rest, a few weeds had grown in the greenhouse, and the village chief began to busy himself with road construction.

However, the village chief had not yet informed the villagers about the road construction. Thinking it would be a good idea to greet the villagers, he picked up the gong and started beating it in the village.

The villagers rushed over when they heard the noise, and the men working in the greenhouse also gathered together. Not knowing what had happened, they also rushed over here since they were not far away.

The Xu family also knew what happened, so the old man came as a representative.

The village chief said, "I've called everyone here today because something great is going to happen to Xujia Village, which will benefit future generations!"

When the villagers heard that it was good news, they all smiled. Xu Daniu asked, "Village Chief, what is the good news? Tell us quickly!"
