Chapter 374: Warm Hospitality!
After Qin Zhizhi went in, she picked some ingredients and found two baskets to pack them.
"Zhizhi, are these ingredients enough?"
Ning Ning had no idea what these things were and was afraid that she wouldn't bring enough.
"That's enough! If you take any more, the village head will get angry with us."
Qin Zhizhi smiled and took out two pieces of floral cloth to cover it so that it would not be so conspicuous when she carried it out later.
"That's right. I'll go to the yard first."
Ning Ning carried the two baskets that Qin Zhizhi had packed with ingredients out of the kitchen. Qin Zhizhi checked the remaining ingredients again and exchanged some with Wanwan for more.
Since we have agreed to treat everyone to dinner in the evening, we must make sure that everyone is well fed. People in the countryside don’t care about so many things, but there must be enough meat.
Ning Ning picked up the two baskets and felt they were quite heavy, thinking they were quite solid.
Ning Ning put the basket on the stone table in the yard and waited for Qin Zhizhi to come out.
"Second sister-in-law, wait here for me. I'm going to see how Xinru and Shopkeeper Wang are talking."
"Zhizhi, go ahead. I'll wait for you here and keep an eye on the ingredients."
Ning Ning heard that Qin Zhizhi was going to look for her cousin and Shopkeeper Wang, so she chose to wait for them in the yard.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, sister-in-law!"
Qin Zhizhi walked towards the main hall, but before she arrived, Wang Xinru and Manager Wang came out.
"Sister Zhizhi, I've already discussed this with the shopkeeper. Are we going to the village head's house now?"
"Well, I brought some ingredients, we can go!"
"OK!"
"Second Miss, I'll go back first!" Shopkeeper Wang bowed and prepared to go back.
"Sister Xinru, why don't you, Shopkeeper Wang, stay here today and get to know the village head and the others. This will make business cooperation easier in the future."
Qin Zhizhi thought that they would not be able to come to Qinjia Village often in the future, but the business of the Wang family and Qinjia Village had to continue.
Let Manager Wang and the village head get familiar with each other so that it will be more convenient to do business in the future.
"Okay, Manager Wang, then you can stay and have lunch with us today. We'll go to the village head's house later."
Wang Xinru fully agreed with Qin Zhizhi's idea, and she was also confident in Manager Wang's work.
"Thank you, County Lady, and thank you, Second Miss!"
When Manager Wang heard that there would be business cooperation in the future, he was very happy. Who wouldn't want to meet the head of Qinjia Village?
"Let's go. If we don't leave now, my aunt and sisters-in-law will have to prepare lunch."
Qin Zhizhi originally planned to go earlier, but the unloading was delayed for a while, so she had to set off quickly.
"Yeah, let's go help soon!"
The three of them walked towards the front yard to look for Ning Ning.
Ning Ning was getting bored waiting alone when she saw Qin Zhizhi and others coming over.
"Zhizhi, cousin, you're here. Shall we set off now?"
"Yeah, let's go."
Qin Zhizhi reached out to pick up the ingredients, but Shopkeeper Wang got there first. "County Lady, let me do it."
As a result, Shopkeeper Qin only picked up one basket, and the other basket was taken away by Ning Ning.
"Shopkeeper Wang, I'll bring this up!"
"Second Young Master Madam, why don't I do it? This basket is quite heavy, and it's still very heavy to carry."
Shopkeeper Wang wanted to help Ning Ning carry the basket, but was rejected. "No, I can do it."
Qin Zhizhi smiled helplessly and said, "Manager Wang, just let her do it!"
Several people walked towards the door, and Qin Mu was still waiting there.
"Second sister-in-law, give me the basket. How can I let you carry it? Otherwise, Brother Qingyun will beat me up next time he sees me."
Qin Mu took the basket directly from Ning Ning's hand. The basket was covered with cloth. He didn't know what was inside, but the basket was quite heavy.
Qin Mu glanced at Ning Ning. His second sister-in-law looked so weak, but he didn't expect that she was quite strong.
"Oh well!"
When Ning Ning heard Qin Mu mention her husband Qin Qingyun, she had no choice but to give him the basket.
There is still some distance between the village head's family and the Gu family. Qin Zhizhi greeted villagers warmly when she met them along the way, and sometimes stopped to chat for a few words.
Ning Ning was somewhat glad that she had let Qin Mu carry the basket, otherwise it would have been really tiring.
When they arrived at the village head's house, before they even entered the door, Qin Mu shouted loudly, "Mother, eldest sister-in-law, second sister-in-law, Lihua, come out quickly, Zhizhi and second sister-in-law, Miss Wang is here."
Everyone who was busy in the kitchen ran out when they heard Qin Zhizhi and the others had arrived.
"Zhizhi, the second young lady from the Qingyun family, you are here. Come in quickly. Sit down and take a rest. We will have dinner soon."
The village head's wife and daughters-in-law warmly welcomed them in.
"Auntie, this is a small token of our appreciation. We'll add a dish to your lunch."
Qin Zhizhi took the two baskets and handed them to the village head's wife and daughter-in-law.
"Why did you bring anything with you? How does your uncle do things? I specifically asked him to tell you this morning that everything is ready at home."
The village head's wife felt that her husband was really unreliable. She gave him many warnings, but Qin Zhizhi and others still brought things to her house.
"Auntie, please accept these. These are what Shopkeeper Wang just bought. We are sorry to bother you today!"
"It's not a bother at all. I'm looking forward to your return every day!"
The headman's wife had a good relationship with Li, Zhang and Wang before, and she missed them very much after they went to the capital.
"You guys take the ingredients to the kitchen."
The headman's wife asked several daughters-in-law to take the ingredients to the kitchen. The meal they prepared was very rich, but they could order a few more.
"I understand, Mom. You stay here and chat with Zhizhi and the others. We're going to the kitchen!"
Several daughters-in-law carried the ingredients to the kitchen.
"Why don't you go and call your father back!"
The headman's wife saw that the shopkeeper Wang was also traveling with them, so she asked Qin Mu to call Qin Hai.
"Mom, I'll go right away!" Qin Mu didn't dare to delay and ran out quickly.
As a result, I met Qin Hai and Old Man Qin and others at the door.
"You're such a grown-up, why are you still so irritable?"
The village head was almost bumped by his son, and he caught him and scolded him.
"Hey, I'm just in a hurry to go out and look for you. Zhizhi and the others are here, as well as Shopkeeper Wang. Mom asked me to go and call you."
Qin Mu was afraid that his father would beat him, so he quickly moved his mother out.
As expected, Qin Hai stopped scolding him and led a few people to the main hall. Qin Mu followed behind and breathed a sigh of relief.
After a few pleasantries, Qin Zhizhi introduced everyone to each other and talked about future business.
While everyone was chatting, the headman's wife went to the kitchen again and asked the wives to add a few more dishes.
Everyone was chatting happily in the main hall, and the village head and manager Wang hit it off right away.
The lunch was very rich and delicious. Qin Zhizhi, Ning Ning and Wang Xinru also enjoyed it very much.
The village head also took out his collection of fine wine to entertain Manager Wang and Old Man Qin and others.
The meal was well-respected and Qin Hai's eldest daughter-in-law kept serving food to everyone.
Her husband is in charge of road construction and is very powerful now. She is very grateful to Qin Zhizhi.
Qin Zhizhi enjoyed her meal and she was happy in her heart too.
