Chapter 77, Lively Village Banquet
Kong Xiyan took a look around and saw that everyone was present before she had the prepared Chinese medicine distributed to Zhong Qihan and other guests.
Although this Chinese medicine tasted bitter, we had been drinking it for a week after all. Besides, everyone knew that it was a limited-edition good stuff, so no one resisted it, especially Cheng Ze, who drank it all in one gulp.
After drinking it, he turned around and whispered to Cheng Yue, "I have to talk to Village Chief Xiao Kong about buying the prescription."
"Yeah." Cheng Yue nodded. Her skin condition has been very stable these days. She eats a lot without gaining weight or getting acne. She plays outside every day without getting too tanned. It can be seen that it is really effective.
After Cheng Ze finished speaking to Cheng Yue, he turned to look at Zhong Qihan, who was staring at the bottom of his bowl in a daze with a look of astonishment on his face: "What's wrong, brother?"
"Sweet." Zhong Qihan then looked at Cheng Ze: "My bowl is sweet."
"Are you okay?" Cheng Ze looked at the bottom of Zhong Qihan's bowl, then leaned over to smell it. It was obviously the same as the one he was drinking.
Seeing that Zhong Qihan didn't look like he was lying, Cheng Ze suddenly understood and patted Zhong Qihan on the shoulder: "Don't worry, brother. When Village Chief Xiao Kong and I buy the prescription, we will definitely not forget you! This medicine... you still need to drink it! There's no time to waste!"
Cheng Ze's eyes were full of regret. He couldn't understand how Zhong Qihan, with such a handsome face that was said to be Nuwa's graduation project, could have such kidney deficiency?
I am willing to drink such a hard-tasting kidney tonic!
The corners of Zhong Qihan's mouth twitched. He was too lazy to explain to Cheng Ze and just looked at Kong Xiyan strangely.
There was nothing wrong with the smell of his bowl of medicine, but there was a very noticeable sweet aftertaste when he drank it.
Kong Xiyan, who was sitting in the main seat, met Zhong Qihan's inquiring gaze and knew that Zhong Qihan had already drunk the medicine.
Then it's okay.
The medicine has been taken, and now we just have to wait for the poison to take effect.
Retracting her gaze, Kong Xiyan cleared her throat, and someone next to her immediately signaled everyone to be quiet, as Village Chief Kong was about to speak!
"Fellow villagers, distinguished guests, program staff, members of the archaeological team, and guests who have come from afar." Kong Xiyan picked up the cup and stood up. "Let me say a few words first."
Kong Xiyan first said a few unnecessary opening remarks to go through the motions, and then told them that Cheng Ze and his sister, as well as Zhong Qihan and his sister, were going to invest in a museum in the village and build a public library for everyone.
Cheng Ze immediately pulled Cheng Yue and Zhong Qi Han on both sides of him to stand up and accept the applause of the villagers.
Zhong Yangyang had no choice but to stand up and her face turned red with shyness.
Chu Lizheng, who was sitting at the very edge, had a smile on his face, but his hands hanging under the table were pinching Chu Xiaoxiao's thighs harder and harder, silently venting his anger and jealousy. Chu Xiaoxiao lowered her head and endured it silently, as if she had long been accustomed to it.
After the applause died down and the two pairs of siblings sat down, Kong Xiyan continued, "I've already discussed the location of the museum and library with the higher-ups. There's a piece of land in our village that needs to be demolished."
When we heard that the house was going to be demolished, we all became excited. What does demolition represent? It means real money!
"The location has been decided. It's the fields that belong to Uncle Liao on the west side of the village!" As soon as Kong Xiyan finished speaking, everyone looked at Uncle Liao with envy.
"No!" Uncle Liao stood up and beat his chest, stamping his feet: "Why is it demolished again? I just want to stick to my original intention! Why is it so difficult?"
After hearing what Uncle Liao said, the expressions of everyone present were indescribable, and the audience in the live broadcast room also had complicated emotions.
Although I know Mr. Liao is not being pedantic, it is still hard for me to empathize with him.
When others say "never forget your original aspiration," I might think they're just being pretentious, but when Mr. Liao says "never forget your original aspiration," I think he's serious.
[He demolishes everything he does, how can this not be considered good luck! He's like a walking God of Wealth! I strongly hope Mr. Liao can come to our village, no, come to our home!]
[Receive wealth! Receive the God of Wealth! Receive demolition! Receive Mr. Liao!]
【Pick up the uncle! 】
…
When netizens in the live broadcast room were flooding the screen with messages like "Pick up the old man", Kong Xiyan had already proposed a solution to Mr. Liao.
"Uncle Liao, I've already discussed this with the higher-ups, and they'll allocate you a new piece of fertile land! It won't interfere with your work! I also wish you continued happiness in the future, and that you never forget your original aspirations!"
After hearing what Kong Xiyan said, Grandpa Liao smiled again, and at the same time, two electronic sounds came out of his old cell phone.
1.2 million yuan received in Alipay account.
2.7 million yuan received in Alipay account.
Everyone could see that Uncle Liao was really smiling happily.
"Finally, I'd like to thank everyone again for their support and help this week. No matter where I go, I'll never forget where we are!" Kong Xiyan picked up the glass: "The rest is in the glass! I'll drink it first!"
After saying this, Kong Xiyan tilted her head back and drank the drink in the cup, and everyone cheered and applauded.
"Enjoy your meal, everyone." After saying this in conclusion, Kong Xiyan sat down and started eating.
The lively banquet began. Everyone ate meat and drank wine with big mouthfuls, showing their most simple and natural side. It was obvious that everyone present was very happy.
"It's obvious that everyone here trusts Xiyan." Patriarch Su turned his head and whispered to Luo Zhenxuan, "Xiyan is a really good girl, to be liked by so many people."
"She is the village chief. You can't chase her away even if you don't like her." Luo Zhenxuan was very stubborn, but his eyes never left Kong Xiyan from beginning to end.
The head of the Su family glanced at Luo Zhenxuan and curled the corners of his mouth.
Some people have the toughest mouths in the world!
His eyes have clearly exposed his little thoughts, yet he is still trying to hide them!
"I just want to remind you," Patriarch Su picked up a piece of pork ribs for Luo Zhenxuan, "A daughter of a family is sought after by hundreds of families, not to mention a girl as good as Xiyan. You should pay more attention to yourself!
I don't have many good years left. If I can see you find someone to spend your life with before you die, even in the afterlife, I can meet your mother and grandmother with a clear conscience. "
Luo Zhenxuan did not respond, but lowered his head and looked away when the head of the Su family mentioned his mother.
His revenge has not yet been taken, and now is far from the time to think about these things.
Seeing that Luo Zhenxuan seemed to be thinking about something, the head of the Su family stopped talking and just tasted the dishes on the table.
When Luo Zhenxuan looked up at Kong Xiyan again, Kong Xiyan happened to be looking at him, holding up the cup of drink in her hand and toasting him in the air.
When they met for the first time, Luo Zhenxuan felt that Kong Xiyan was too beautiful.
Especially those peach blossom eyes with upturned corners. When she has no expression, her eyes are ethereal, as if she has a sense of detachment and indifference as if she has seen through all the worldly things. When she smiles, there is a kind of self-confidence that all the best things in the world exist for her.
It is a kind of beauty that does not just remain on the surface, but is built up with knowledge and experience and integrated into the perfection of the soul.
For Luo Zhenxuan, it is charming and dangerous.
But he also knew that beneath such a superior appearance, he was a scumbag.
He hadn't yet avenged his great hatred, so he wouldn't be bothered by such things.
What's more, the other party is a real scumbag.
With a snort of laughter, Luo Zhenxuan felt that the Su family head's idea was really unnecessary.
At best, he only had a little curiosity and admiration for Kong Xiyan.
He wouldn't fall in love with a jerk! Humph!
At the same time, Kong Xiyan withdrew her hand and curled the corners of her lips.
This Luo Lao San's forehead is black and he looks dead. I really don't know who he has offended again.
Never mind, there are still three more times, she can just help him.
Here, Qin Siyang also brought Qin Muyu over to toast Kong Xiyan: "Little Village Chief Kong, thank you very much for taking care of us siblings during this period!"
"Of course not. I should thank you for adding extra meals to our meal and making so many delicious dishes!" Kong Xiyan immediately smiled and clinked her glasses with Qin Siyang's. "I'm not even an adult yet, but I'm drinking beverages instead of alcohol."
"Huh?" Qin Siyang and his sister were both stunned when they heard the voice.
Although they knew Kong Xiyan wasn't very old, given her pretty face, no one had expected her to be so thorough and experienced, even though she wasn't even an adult yet? They thought she just took good care of herself!
After the toast, the brother and sister, who were not good at socializing, went straight back to their seats and had their meal quietly.
After the meal was over, everyone went back to rest. Uncle Zhu collected some leftovers on the table and put them into his lunch box, then prepared to go visit Zhu Ge, who had been punished by family rules and could not see anyone.
I may be angry, but he is my nephew after all, and I can't really ignore his life or death.
I have to ask Zhu Ge later whether he is going to take care of that piece of land. If he really doesn't want to take care of it, then as his uncle, he should take some effort to take care of it so that it won't be abandoned.
When they arrived at Zhu Ge's house, Uncle Zhu lifted the curtain and heard Zhu Ge's voice coming from inside.
"What? Two million? Can you really give me two million?"
