Zhang Wuliang held two house deeds in his arms, looking at the restaurant that now belonged to him.

Today is really the right time, not only bought a yard, but also got a shop on Yongxing Street, this shop is much bigger than Baiyufang on Yonghua Street.

There is a two-story building in front of the reception area, and the kitchen stove in the backyard is more professional than Baiyufang, and there are matching tables, chairs and benches. He will redecorate it according to his own ideas later. , these can be reused.

Zhang Wuliang was very satisfied with today's harvest, so he asked the hoe to go back and tidy up the yard first.Then he locked the door of the restaurant and went to the dental shop.

This trip not only made up for the introduction fee, but also brought back a lot of newcomers, more than a dozen children, and two adults.

Children, both boys and girls, ranging from eight to 11 years old.

The two adults are a couple who fled from the famine. They are around 30 years old and have no children. The man still has a limp in his legs.But it's okay to do light work.

The woman said that the housework was done well, and she could do laundry and cook. Zhang Wuliang brought them back because he wanted them to watch the yard and help him take care of the children.

Bringing everyone back to the yard, the hoe was already waiting at the door. Seeing so many people behind Zhang Wuliang, he nodded and motioned for them to follow him, and took them to the place where he lived.

"When did Zhang Yuanwai and the others leave?" Zhang Wuliang also followed behind, looking around and asking.

Hoe shook his head: "When I came back, the door was ajar, and there was no one inside."

Zhang Wu Liangliang nodded and didn't say anything else, but Hoe hesitated and finally said: "It's a separate small courtyard, and the courtyard where the servants live is a bit off."

Um?Zhang Wuliang was stunned for a moment before he realized: "It's okay, you can arrange it."

Hoe breathed a sigh of relief.

Walk through the corridor all the way, pass through a few arches, and then walk through a small path, and you will see a yard with a "Bamboo Garden" plaque.

Zhang Wuliang walked in and took a look. He saw that the garden was indeed as its name suggests. Bamboo is the most common thing in the yard. Occasionally, a few other trees also made the scenery in the yard not so monotonous.

From the outside it looks like there are plenty of rooms in the courtyard.And it also has its own small kitchen. Zhang Wuliang pushed open the doors in front of him and looked in, although not all of them were big.But it also has all internal organs, Zhang Wu highlighted and nodded, it was just right for them to be placed.

Turning around again, I saw that Hoe had already beckoned everyone to come in, and now he was standing in the middle of the yard under the sun, standing neatly like a punishment.

Zhang Wuliang squinted his eyes: "Everyone, except Uncle Li and Aunt Li, stand together in pairs, men and women are separated."

A group of children hesitated for a while, and then led by the older children, they began to move.

It's really a move, because they were originally standing close according to their relationship.

Zhang Wuliang squinted at their formation, the oldest boy among them should be very popular.

Because even if the two of them stand together, other people will surround them meaninglessly.

"All selected?" Zhang Wuliang asked.

No one spoke, and Zhang Wuliang just watched them in silence. Time passed by, and the people under the sun were so hot that they began to sweat.

Finally, someone couldn't help but secretly turned his head. The moment he met Zhang Wuliang's eyes, he immediately lowered his head and curled up, wishing to hide his body in the shadows.

"Are you dumb?" Zhang Wuliang couldn't hear any emotion in his voice.

"Okay, okay, go back to the master, okay." Finally someone summoned up the courage to answer his words, Zhang Wuliang turned his gaze, and it was the oldest boy.

"What's your name?" he asked.

"If you go back to the master, my name is Shu Gen'er." The boy lowered his head, a very earthy name.

"From today on, you will be called Quan Rui." Zhang Wuliang gave him a new name.

"Yes, thank you, Master, for giving me the name." There was no objection or hesitation.

Zhang Wuliang nodded in satisfaction, then asked Hoe to arrange the room for them, and asked Aunt Li to see what was missing. Hoe took her out and bought it once, and familiarized the surrounding area by the way.

Zhang Wuliang even stayed in the town for one night just to see if there was anything wrong and make it up the next day.

Because it was the first time for Hoe to come into contact with these affairs, Zhang Wuliang even made a special trip to Luo's house, and asked Luo Mingyue to borrow a steward to teach him, anyway, he became a hands-off shopkeeper.

After everything was over, Zhang Wuliang returned to Shuangwan Town, by the way...

He left the hoe, on the one hand, because he was worried about those people, and on the other hand, he asked him to prepare a housewarming banquet in a few days.

Although Zhang Wuliang is not ready to move his family to the town.But as his new house, and also his first house in the town, he had to invite his relatives and friends to get together no matter what... Luo Mingyue said.

There is no way to eat people with short mouths and soft hands. Zhang Wuliang can only shamefully obey.

It happened to be the holiday of Taolin Private School three days later, he could bring the whole family to the town for a few days, and the housewarming banquet was set at noon the next day.

All the people who received the news were very curious about Zhang Wuliang's new yard.

Four days later, Luo Ming took advantage of the favorable location and rushed to Zhang Wuliang's new home early.

As a result, after visiting for a while, I sighed again and again that Zhang Wuliang was really lucky.

"How do you talk?" Zhang Wuliang threw a peanut directly on his head.

"Hehehe, isn't this a compliment to your luck?" Luo Mingyue rubbed his head and smiled apologetically.

Luo Mingxi sat next to him without looking sideways.

Yes, that's right, Luo Mingyue not only came by himself, but also brought Y, X, Z, and L with his second brother.

Zhang Wuliang glanced at Luo Mingxi like this: This person doesn't seem like someone who will go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing.

Luo Mingxi felt his gaze, raised his head and smiled at him: "Brother Ning Yuan, don't you mind visiting this garden again."

Zhang Wuliang smirked professionally: "The second son is free."

Luo Mingxi nodded to him, then stood up, waved the paper fan that he never left his hand, and began to walk and watch in the garden.

Luo Mingyue looked at his teeth sour, but still explained to Zhang Wuliang: "Brother Liang, don't mind, I have long heard about the exquisite layout of Zhang Yuan's family's courtyard, and my second brother has always been fascinated by it. It's just that No way, now I finally have a chance to appreciate it, that’s why it’s like this.”

"I haven't seen you all this time?" Zhang Wuliang was puzzled, as Luo Mingxi, shouldn't he?

"Ahem..." Luo Mingyue cleared his throat in embarrassment: "After all, it was done by Ms. Zhang."

Oh... got it, Zhang Wuliang continued to eat his peanuts with his head down, indicating that Luo Mingyue didn't say anything and he didn't hear anything.

The three-day tour in Shuangwan Town soon came to an end, and Zhang Wuliang and his group returned to Taohe Village to continue their life of picking chrysanthemums and seeing Nanshan leisurely under the eastern fence.

However, there are still changes, as the most obvious person running back and forth between the town and the village has changed from Zhang Wuliang to a hoe.

Zhang Wuliang said that Hoe is his housekeeper, and Hoe is also doing his best to be the housekeeper.Not only Zhang's yard in Shuangwan Town, but also the farm chores in Taohe Village, he remembered clearly in his heart, and when the time came, he would bring Quan Rui or others back to help Zhang Wuliang with farm work.

Five years have passed in a blink of an eye...

Master Zhou has already researched many kinds of snack recipes that Zhang Wuliang wanted: Roujiamo, Liangpi, duck blood vermicelli and so on.Except for dishes with rare ingredients such as beef and mutton, everything else Zhang Wuliang can think of is almost done.

The youngest of the little radish heads brought back to learn how to make things is already 13 years old.

During this period, Zhang Wuliang occasionally went to the town to teach them how to read and write, and by the way inspected them, and then picked out a few smart and honest people to learn the craft.

As for the matter of opening a restaurant, Zhang Wuliang is not in a hurry at this time. He knew before that it cannot be done in a day or two. Zhang Wuliang has already rented out the shop on Yongxing Street, and it will take three months to arrive. Give people time to find another home.

Moreover, two major events happened during this period, which greatly changed the life of the Zhang family.

The first major event was that Luo Mingze's immediate superior, the magistrate of Chengde County, found Zhang Wuliang and said that he would cooperate with him in the preserved egg business before returning to Beijing to report on his duties.

Zhang Wuliang has always given money to Wu Mao. Zhang Wuliang doesn't know how he found himself here.

One of the parents was not easy to offend, so Zhang Wuliang quickly informed Wu Maoqian to come back, and handed over the cooperation to him. I don't know if it was because of the Luo family's face. The county magistrate didn't make things difficult for him, and took Wu Mao Maoqian went to Kyoto.

It was only later that Zhang Wuliang found out that the magistrate of Chengde County did not come to seek cooperation for himself, but for his master——

The former fourth prince, and how did Zhang Wuliang know, that is the next big thing.

Two years ago, the first emperor passed away and the fourth prince ascended the throne, and named Chengde Wu Shang (Wu Maoqian) as the imperial merchant. Only then did Zhang Wuliang know who Wu Maoqian was working for in the capital, and he also knew that he might not have been in the past few years. Just do the preserved egg business.

The night before the imperial decree came down, Huzi came with 10 taels of silver notes and bought the recipe of preserved eggs in Zhang Wuliang's hand. Zhang Wuliang knew that this was what Wu Maoqian meant.

He knew better that Wu Maoqian did this to protect himself, and the king of a country didn't mind giving petty profits to his servants who ran errands for him.But don't mind a minion who does nothing and holds the recipe.

Sure enough, not long after Huzi returned to the capital, the emperor's imperial decree came down.

Although Zhang Wuliang taught the people how to burn fat many years ago, he was given the reputation of a good man and the privilege of not kneeling before officials.

But everyone in it knows that this decree is because of his knowledge of the times and for the good name of the emperor's benevolence.

If he insists on not letting go, I'm afraid he won't have such a happy life now...

Sitting in the lotus pavilion of Zhang Zhai in Shuangwan Town, Zhang Wuliang sighed while holding Chen Xiaonian in his arms who had just been diagnosed as more than one month pregnant.

Compared with these, Zhang Ergou dropped out of school and went to Baiyufang to help his second brother. What kind of big deal is it?
