As a parent, Han Baozhu naturally had to say a few words. Since he was facing familiar villagers, he wasn't nervous: "The villagers have all watched Alan grow up. These years have been tough for this child. She and Ajue have gone through many hardships, and now they've finally come back together. It's truly not easy. From now on, everyone should cherish them. Today, we've witnessed their happiness, and we hope they can live peacefully and safely in the future."
Parents' greatest wish for their children is for them to be safe and sound; nothing is more important than living well.
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Then Nangong Jue also said a few words: "I will treat Alan well and be filial to my parents-in-law. I hope everyone will accept me as their son-in-law."
“If you treat Alan badly in the future, the whole village will come after you, and no amount of money will help you,” someone shouted.
The people around them joined in the commotion.
"Don't worry, all my assets, including all my real estate, have now been transferred to Alan's name. In other words, I'm working for Alan now. If I wrong her, I'll be kicked out of the house with nothing." Nangong Jue shrugged. "So, I wouldn't dare."
The crowd burst into laughter.
"Then wouldn't you be considered a gigolo?" someone teased Nangong Jue.
“That’s right.” Nangong Jue readily admitted, “There’s an old saying, ‘Listen to your wife and you’ll have food to eat.’ So, I’m proud to be a kept man.”
After a moment of surprise, everyone burst into laughter again. As a result, Nangong Jue successfully gained the villagers' approval.
"Here, I'd like to add something." Nangong Jue raised his hand to quiet everyone down before turning to look at Le Yao. "Alan has always considered herself a daughter of Lishu Village. Her greatest wish is for everyone to prosper. So, we'll be negotiating with the county, town, and village officials to see how to develop this pear orchard area, and if we can make our fragrant pears a brand..."
Everyone was thrilled when they heard this, because if this area could be developed, they would be able to find work right at their doorstep, which was a great thing.
"Alright, this matter still needs further discussion and research. Once a plan is finalized, we will inform everyone as soon as possible," the village chief said loudly.
Everyone immediately calmed down, but they all felt a sense of anticipation.
"Alright, I've finished speaking. Let's begin the feast. Everyone, please eat and drink well today. Don't be shy, we've prepared plenty of food." Nangong Jue gestured.
Fang Ming waved his hand, and the well-trained waiters immediately removed the snacks and melon seeds, and started serving cold dishes.
Meanwhile, the large stoves were also turned on at the same time, and frying, stir-frying, and cooking immediately began.
Everyone was quickly drawn to the food, as many of the dishes were things they had only heard of but never tasted before, such as sea cucumber rice, abalone soup, and lobster...
In addition to main meals, there is also ice cream and various pastries.
The children, in particular, were overjoyed. At this time, the adults didn't have time to look after them, so they could eat as much as they wanted, and they were as happy as if it were New Year's Day.
After they had eaten and drunk their fill, Han Baozhu and Han Xiangdong led Nangong Jue to each table to toast and introduce the guests.
Le Yao, on the other hand, was enjoying her leisure time, sitting there eating and drinking.
"Han Binglan, you're really lucky." Han Bingmei ran over, her tone somewhat sarcastic.
