Chapter 90 Banquet



Everyone stayed away. Nangong Beichen cast an isolation shield on himself and flew directly to the tree to pick the beehive down.

When the bees saw that their nest was gone, they flew everywhere. Nangong Beichen cast an isolation cover and wrapped all the bees in it.

Nangong Beichen removed the isolation mask only after everyone had left.

A group of boys happily returned to the ancestral hall with a beehive bigger than a winnowing basket.

Xiaoshu ran to the basket of bowls and chopsticks and took out a large bowl. The boys opened the beehive, which contained honeycombs. The small holes in the honeycombs contained bee pupae.

Everyone took a little and pulled the bee pupae out of the box. The village chief saw the boys gathered together and came over to take a look.

Seeing that it was a bee pupa, he said, "Hey, this is a great thing to go with wine. Did you get stung?"

The little tree said proudly, "Grandpa Village Chief, I found this. Achen climbed up the tree and picked it. None of us got stung."

The village chief looked at Nangong Beichen who was sitting upright beside him. He knew his identity. His grandson had said when he came back that he had played games with the emperor.

He was also friends with King Chen. The village chief didn't believe it at first, but he asked Old Man Feng before he believed his grandson's words.

His grandson has become successful and can even play with the emperor. The village chief is so proud of himself during this period.

It took half an hour to pick all the bee pupae from the hive, filling two large bowls.

Xiaoshu handed the bee pupae to Da Wangshi, who was the best cook among the people inside.

Seeing so many bee pupae, Da Wang fried them in a pan in several batches, then chopped the green peppers into small pieces and poured the fried bee pupae into the pan and stir-fried them. Then the aroma came out.

The children were drooling over the aroma, but no one took the initiative to ask for it. They were also greedy for Fengjiu.

With so many people craving for food, she had no choice but to endure it. After the food came out of the pot, Da Wang used small bowls to fill it up with thirty-four servings, but with less bee pupae and more chili peppers.

We already prepared more than 30 tables today, otherwise there wouldn’t be enough to share if there was less, so we had to put more chili.

After a while, Nangong Beichen quietly pulled Fengjiu to the back of the ancestral hall and entered the space with Fengjiu.

As soon as Fengjiu arrived under the grape trellis, he saw a small bowl of fragrant bee pupae on the table in the space.

Fengjiu looked at Nangong Beichen: "Achen, when did you go to get it? Why didn't I notice it?"

Nangong Beichen touched the phoenix wine lovingly: "I asked my aunt for a bowl right after it was made. Eat it quickly, otherwise it will get cold."

Fengjiu happily grabbed one from the bowl with her fingers and put it into her mouth. The overbearing fragrance of the bee pupa spread in her mouth. It smelled so good.

Fengjiu took another one and fed it to Nangong Beichen's mouth. Nangong Beichen opened his mouth and ate it.

Fengjiu: "Is Achen delicious?"

Nangong Beichen nodded: "It's delicious. We will go up the mountain to find some in a few days and then you can have enough to eat."

Feng Jiu smiled and said, "Okay, we'll bring some for the Emperor and the Empress when the time comes."

Nangong Beichen nodded lovingly, and the two of them finished eating a small bowl of bee pupae in the space one by one before leaving.

The friends were still squatting there watching, Fengjiu and Nangong Beichen were also squatting there.

Xiaobao suddenly came close to Fengjiu and said, "Wow, you smell so good, just like the little bugs I just fried."

Feng Jiu didn't feel guilty at all: "Maybe I just passed by there, so I have this fragrant smell. Xiaobao, you have a very sensitive nose."

Nangong Beichen couldn't help but laugh when he saw Fengjiu fooling the child. By noon, all the dishes were ready.

The patriarch shouted and everyone found a place to sit down. Even the two parrots had their own seats, and the bowls in front of them were filled with various dried fruits.

The clan leader said: "Today we all celebrate the New Year in advance, and tomorrow we will celebrate with our families.

This year is the first time that we, the Feng people, celebrate the New Year together. From now on, we will celebrate together on the 29th day of every year. This year is also the most prosperous New Year for us, the Feng people.

Ever since Fengjiu was born, the lives of our Feng clan have been getting better and better.

This year's fruits and vegetables, including the instant noodle factory, have brought us a lot of money. I hope everyone will continue to work hard next year.

There will be hot springs next year, and we will try to grow more vegetables and fruits next year so that we old guys can earn money at home.

Let the boys go forward to pursue their future without worries. Let us toast to them with our first glass of Feng wine."

Everyone raised their cups and stood up. Feng Jiu also held up his cup with a smile. Everyone shouted in unison: "Cheers."

Everyone drank the wine or juice in their glasses in one gulp. The clan leader said, "Everyone, start eating. Don't be polite. This is funded by the clan. If you don't eat more, you will lose out!"

Everyone laughed when they heard the clan leader's teasing words. Fengjiu saw a long banquet set out on the cement road.

I suddenly thought of my previous life. In my previous life, people in Sichuan would hold banquets in the village during the Chinese New Year, which were called Baba Banquets.

The table was filled with a variety of dishes, eighteen bowls in total. Various game were served today, as well as fresh vegetables.

The men at the table were chatting about everything, the women were talking about family matters, and the children were also talking and laughing at the table.

After a while, the man started talking about his embarrassing childhood memories, making everyone at the table laugh.

Nangong Beichen had never seen such a united village before, and all the villagers were very kind.

Feng Jiu also likes the way the people in Fengjia Village get along with each other, and her heart is warm. Everyone present is her relative. She is extremely fortunate to have come to this world and have relatives and friends she cares about.

Even Nangong Beichen's four secret guards sat with the villagers, which was also allowed by Nangong Beichen.

The villagers did not treat them as outsiders and soon became familiar with the secret guards. Some were playing finger-guessing games, some were bragging, and the whole Fengjia Village was filled with laughter.

It was almost dark when the drunk man was helped home by his family and took home all the things he had brought with him. Only then did the banquet end.

After returning home and washing up, everyone went back to their rooms to rest. They were all exhausted today.

Feng Jiu washed up and entered the space. After a while, Nangong Beichen also came in. The two of them practiced in the courtyard.

The spiritual spring water from Nangong Beichen is even better than the spiritual spring water from Fengjiu, and the spiritual energy contained in the spiritual spring water is several times more.

There is also a new medicine garden in the space on Nangong Beichen's side. The medicinal herbs planted in it are all precious spiritual herbs in the world of immortal cultivation. Many elixirs require spiritual herbs.

At their current cultivation speed, they would be able to reach the second level of Qi Refining in less than two years.

After letting the spiritual power circulate in the body for 9981 times, Feng Jiu stopped practicing.

At this time, Fengjiu also felt that someone had entered the space. Fengjiu flashed into the villa and saw that it was Liu Quan, the housekeeper from her previous life.
