The fool has become a spirit, and she can speak

Lu Siniang said: "What's the use of being able to recite poetry? You are just a coward."

Shang Xi said, "Fourth Lady, my uncle Ge is not only good at reciting poems, he is also a man of great talent. He served in the same court as my uncle in the past and made many contributions to the Great Lang Kingdom. If he were a coward, how could he accompany the Marquis? Don't you know who the Marquis is?"

A woman said, "Our Lord is a high-ranking official who is respected by everyone. So, Mr. Ge is not a bad person."

Shang Xi said: "Of course it's not bad."

Everyone was talking at once, and finally Lu Siniang showed a hint of smile.

The next day.

Everyone in the mansion had his own job. Some went up the mountain, some discussed matters, and there was no idle person in the whole mansion.

The group of girls who were threshing rice on the mountain yesterday appeared on the mountain again. They sat on the rice, threshing rice while talking about their parents. Their conversations were all about Ge Dongqing and Lu Si Niang. Look, they surrounded Shang Xi again, "Madam, who is arranging Si Niang's marriage?"

Shang Xi said, "Didn't I tell you yesterday? The Marquis' Mansion will take care of it."

A woman was very worried, "Who will take care of this? I think Ge Dongqing is very weak, can he take care of this?"

Shang Xi patted his chest and said, "Cheng Feng and I will take care of this matter ourselves."

"Young Madam, will you take care of it?"

Shang Xi smiled and said, "Why? You don't think highly of me."

"I think it's good, but can a little guy like you handle it? You seem to be only twenty-one, right?"

Shang Xi said: "It has nothing to do with age. I have helped others with this twice. I have experience."

A girl said, "Madam, if you are the one who is in charge, why are you still bringing us here to thresh rice? The twenty-sixth of this month is coming in the blink of an eye, shouldn't you be in charge of my fourth mother?"

Shang Xi said: "You forgot what I just said to you. I have experience. Not to mention the 26th of this month, even the 16th of this month, I can arrange it clearly."

Shang Xi was full of confidence, and his attitude was a bit intimidating, so everyone really believed that Shang Xi could handle the matter.

The woman asked Lu Si Niang again: "Si Niang, why aren't you anxious at all?"

Yes, Lu Siniang was threshing the rice steadily, and no one knew what she was thinking in her mind.

Seeing that Lu Si Niang did not respond, the woman continued, "Si Niang, what are you thinking about? Hey, Si Niang, I'm talking to you."

Lu Siniang came back to her senses and asked, "What's wrong?"

"I say, you are about to get married, why aren't you in a hurry?"

Lu Si Niang said, "There are still many days left, why rush?"

The woman said, "Fourth Lady, you are so careless. I counted on my fingers and it's not even twenty days yet. You should prepare your dowry now."

Lu Si Niang said, "I don't have much dowry, so I won't prepare any."

A woman said: "We still need to prepare our wedding dress."

Lu Siniang said, "Just buy any clothes."

Shang Xi said, "How can that be possible? Today I will find someone to measure Si Niang and make her some nice clothes."

A woman said: "Why should we look for others? We weavers deal with needles and threads every day. Who doesn't know how to sew? If we all work hard, we can make embroidered wedding dresses."

Lu Si Niang said, "No, we have so much work to do that we don't have time to embroider a wedding dress for me. Just listen to me and buy a dress. Getting married is not a big deal."

A woman said: "It's not a big deal for a woman to get married. What else is a big deal? This is the first happy event in our weaving workshop. I am greedy for this little bit of black."

The other women echoed, "Yes, I will embroider tonight. I know how to embroider, and I can embroider quickly and well."

A woman said, "I tailor. Every piece of clothing I tailor fits the body."

A group of women rushed to offer their help, and Si Niang had no choice but to give everyone this opportunity.

At dinner, a bowl of fragrant rice was placed in the center of the table. Wan Lianxing asked, "What does this mean? Are we going to eat white rice as a dish today?"

Cheng Feng smiled and said, "I'll have someone husk two bags of rice today and bring them back for my uncle to try."

Wan Lianxing asked: "Is this the rice you planted?"

Cheng Feng smiled and said, "This is the rice that I planted. It looks shiny, but I don't know if it tastes good."

Wan Lianxing smiled and said, "The aroma of rice is so tempting, how can it not be delicious? Give me a bowl first so I can try it."

A bowl of white rice was brought to Wan Lianxing. Wan Lianxing picked up the bowl and took a bite first. "Everyone try it. It's really good rice. You can eat a bowl of it even without eating vegetables."

It’s not that Wan Lianxing was giving face to Cheng Feng, it’s just that the rice is really delicious, and everyone at the table who has eaten it has spoken highly of it.

Cheng Feng smiled and said, "Since everyone agrees, we will plant this variety of rice in the next paddy field."

Wan Lianxing smiled and said, "Since it's handed over to you, you decide. You don't need to discuss with us laymen about what varieties to plant."

Wan Lianxing asked Shang Xi who was eating the rice, "Shang Xi, don't just focus on eating. Tell me how you are doing with the things I asked you to do."

Shang Xi said: "What is it?"

Wan Lianxing said, "The most difficult one."

Shang Xi asked: "The most difficult one? You mean Mochun County, right?"

Shang Xi was alluding to the iron ore factory.

Wan Lianxing said: "No, the matter between your uncle Ge and Lu Siniang is the most difficult."

Shang Xi said: "As for arranging the wedding, there is no rush. I have a plan in mind."

Wan Lianxing said: "I don't care what you do, but you must do it in a grand manner."

Shang Xi said: "If this requirement can be met, it will be a grand event, not difficult."

Wan Lianxing said: "You have to pay more attention."

Shang Xi said: "It's all in my heart."

Shang Xi, who was as steady as a rock, had been threshing rice in the mountains for three consecutive days. Finally, she could no longer sit still. "Cheng Feng, I won't go up the mountain with you to thresh rice today. I have to go to the street to buy some things for Uncle Ge."

Cheng Feng said: "I'll go with you."

Shang Xi said, "Are you free?"

Cheng Feng said: "My uncle gave two hundred servants. No matter how much rice there is, it is not enough for them to harvest. It has been harvested long ago, and the old farmers are already preparing to plant the next crop."

Shang Xi said: "I know everything you said. I mean, so much rice has not been stored yet, don't you go up the mountain to watch it?"

Cheng Feng said, "The rice needs to be turned over and dried. If it's not dried thoroughly, it will get damp and moldy. Don't worry about it. There are people to do it. My uncle has given someone else, and we still have people on hand. We don't have to worry about the work. I will accompany you to the street to buy things today. Buy whatever is good and whatever is expensive. My uncle is letting Uncle Ge and Si Niang have a grand wedding."

Shang Xi said: "Actually, I don't need you to accompany me."

Cheng Feng said: "Why?"
