The villagers of Qingfeng Village were all drooling when they saw the two tables of sumptuous dishes and the bottles of ten-year-old rice wine.
Chen Xia invited Fourth Grandpa to sit at the main seat and poured wine for the village elders one by one. The girls had soda, which they rarely had access to.
Chen Xia raised his glass:
"Fourth Grandfather, uncles, aunts, I toast to you all. Don't worry, these sisters are absolutely safe with me. I can still stand firm in Ke Town and won't let others bully our Chen family. They are still young now, so make good money. When there is a chance in the future, I will help them find a good family. Maybe they can all become city dwellers in the future."
Everyone laughed easily, and Chen Yigen took the lead and drank it all in one gulp:
"We trust Xiaoxia's character, and we're also confident in handing these most outstanding girls of the Chen family over to you. Qiaogu, listen up, no matter what happens when you're out, you must obey Chenxia. If anyone slacks off or acts cunningly, even if Chenxia doesn't punish you, I will punish you severely. Do you understand?"
Facing the lecture from the village leader, the seven girls stood up obediently and said, "I heard you, Grandpa (Fourth Grandpa)."
"I'm glad you understand. It's your good fortune to be able to work here with Chen Xia. You can say goodbye to your life as a peasant. In the future, you can marry someone from this town and you won't have to work so hard in the fields like your parents did.
Don't worry, Fourth Grandpa, I'm putting this out there. You can keep half of your salary and give half to your family. It's your responsibility to help your family, but it's also okay to keep some for yourself. Are you satisfied with this arrangement?"
Several girls had an unexpected surprise: "Hehe, thank you, Fourth Grandpa, I'm very satisfied."
Qiaogu was not satisfied, "Grandpa, I want to keep them all. I also want to buy a TV for my family."
Chen Yigen waved his hands. "What's the use of a TV? We can't get any TV stations in the countryside. How about I keep this money for you?"
"No, I won't. I'll keep this money for myself and buy cigarettes and wine for Grandpa in the future."
"Hahaha, grandpa loves you for a reason. You're the squad leader, so you must take good care of this family for Chen Xia. If anything goes wrong, you'll be the first one I'll blame."
Everyone laughed, and Chen Xia said with a smile:
"Sisters, it's not that troublesome to watch TV. Look, there's one in the living room of the main house. After get off work, you can watch TV whenever you want, or go to the movies whenever you want. Isn't that great?"
"Really? Xiao Xia, you have a TV at home? Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
When the little girls heard that there was a TV, they stopped eating and no longer cared about the meat. They all ran to the living room to watch the fun. Everyone at the table was gone in an instant.
After a while, someone shouted, "Xiao Xia, how do we turn on the TV?"
Chen Xia had to put down his job to teach them how to turn on the TV and how to adjust the antenna.
After a while, the Yue Opera "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai" appeared on TV. As the pleasant sounds of the opera spread, even the adults in the yard could not sit still and found excuses to take a look.
It wouldn't matter if I didn't look, but once I did, I couldn't take my eyes off it. Soon, the living room was full of people, all of them staring at the small screen in fascination...
The first day these seven girls came to Ke Town was spent in front of the TV with their work bowls on. Many years later, when they got together and recalled the scene of that day, they still sighed with emotion.
In the afternoon, the villagers of Qingfeng Village all went home.
Chen Xia invited Master Wang Hequan from the Chinese medicine pharmacy to formally teach the girls how to make Chinese medicine pills. Gu Lin, a veteran in the pharmaceutical industry, also jumped to the Plum Garden.
When she saw so many young and beautiful girls in the garden, she felt unhappy, pouting her lips and looking like "Come and comfort me!"
Chen Xia was busy preparing materials and tools with Wang Hequan and did not pay attention to this little ancestor for a while.
It was Chen Zhen who saw Gu Lin sulking in the yard and weakly asked Chen Qiu beside her, "Aqiu, could that young lady be your sister-in-law?"
Duang sound, Gu Lin pricked up her ears and heard it, her mood immediately turned cloudy.
"Sister-in-law, they actually call me sister-in-law, hahaha."
So he smiled and waved at Chen Zhen who was not far away: "Little sister, where are you all from?"
Chen Zhen was a little shy and hesitated to go over, so Chen Qiu helped introduce her:
"Sister Gu Lin, these seven sisters are our cousins, all with the surname Chen. My brother specially recruited them from the village. From now on, we don't have to make the pills anymore. We're free."
"Oh, it turns out to be my cousins!"
Gu Lin was very satisfied after hearing this. Now all potential threats were gone. Everyone on Earth knew that siblings from the same clan could not get married.
She immediately patted her not-so-full chest and said, "You are Chen Laoer's sisters, which means you are also my Gu Lin's sisters. If you have any problems in Ke Town in the future, come to me. I'm more useful than that careless guy."
Chen Qiaogu, Chen Zhen and other girls covered their mouths and laughed, and they also had a better impression of this beautiful and generous city girl.
Especially after seeing her take out a bunch of snacks from Chen Xia's room, he became even more certain that Comrade Gu must be Chen Xia's partner, otherwise why would she be so unreserved?
You should know that girls are generally not allowed to enter and leave boys' rooms at will.
At this time, Chen Xia clapped his hands a few times.
"Come on, everyone, come here. Now let's ask Master Wang to teach everyone how to make Chinese medicine balls. Today, Chen Qiu, Gu Lin and I will demonstrate it to everyone. If you watch carefully, you will find it is actually very simple."
It is actually very simple to make Chinese medicine pills. Master Wang was explaining on the side, and Chen Xia and others were demonstrating in person. After going through the whole process, Qiaogu and the others already had a general understanding.
So six girls took over the operation, and Master Wang and Chen Xia were there to provide guidance.
After Master Wang left, Chen Xia brought a box of pills and said mysteriously:
"Everyone, please pay attention. These pills are our Chen family's unique secret recipe. You must remember not to tell anyone else about them. Do you understand?"
Several girls nodded frantically, staring at the box of medicines with their minds full of questions. When did the Chen family produce a miracle doctor?
"Come on, now all of you follow my example. First, crush the tablet, then wrap it in the pill and start rubbing it like this. Keep rubbing it until it becomes a round shape."
Chen Xia taught and demonstrated at the same time, and soon, a round pill appeared in his hand.
After Qiaogu and the others tried it, they immediately mastered the technique, and the slight nervousness in their hearts gradually dissipated.
Nonsense, this kind of work is just simple rough processing, anyone with a brain can do it. If someone can't do it, Chen Xia will definitely suspect that this person has an IQ problem.
In one afternoon, we produced 50 finished products.
