"Five years ago? Isn't that when the eldest daughter of your family just turned eighteen? She became a body-building warlock at the age of eighteen, and also took over the entire Bian Mansion's hundreds of thousands of gold bars - such a grand thing. Did your boss organize an eighteenth-year-old coming-of-age ceremony for Bian Wanqing?"
Ye Congwen asked with interest, if all the future heads of the three mansions have an eighteenth-year-old adult ceremony, then I can't fall behind. After all, they only become body-forging warlocks when they are eighteen years old. I will already be eighteen years old next year. He is a master of body shaping and perfection.
"Such a good thing must be done in a big way! If you think about it carefully, he became a body training sorcerer just after he turned eighteen. This cultivation talent is the first person in the entire Lizhou Prefecture!
In addition, the head of my family personally spoke and designated the eldest lady as the future head. This is something that has never happened in the Bian Mansion for hundreds of years!
It's such a great thing to have double happiness, why don't we celebrate it with a three-month feast? "
Bian Xuan said eloquently that Bian Wanqing was the first among the heirs of the three mansions to become a body-building sorcerer. He outshone Jia Zhenzhu and Zhen Yingjun, which really gave the head of the Bian Mansion a face. Everyone set up assembly lines to celebrate, and the neighbors' homes didn't even have to open fires to cook for three months.
Behind them, Yu Yueyue and Lin Xiaoyu were speechless. No wonder Bian Wanqing spent money lavishly. This was a problem brought from her mother's womb. The entire Bian Mansion was used to extravagance and waste.
"Are you deliberately mocking me? You said in front of Deputy Commander Ye that I have great talent in cultivation. How old is he this year?"
Bian Wanqing glared at Bian Zhuan. She used to be very proud of her talent for becoming a body-building sorcerer at the age of eighteen, but now, she might as well not mention it.
"This, this, this, I didn't mean this."
Bian Chuan immediately choked up. He was about to argue a few words when he heard Ye Congwen start to ask again how many dishes Bian Wanqing had prepared for his eighteenth-year-old coming-of-age ceremony, which respectable people were invited, and how much gift money each person received. .
Bian Wanqing raised her head and looked at Ye Congwen's serious look. Suddenly she became a little awakened and asked:
"You asked in such detail, do you really plan to prepare for your eighteenth-year-old adult ceremony next year?"
"I have been lonely since I was a child, and I have never had a lively birthday. If I don't have a lively birthday party when I turn eighteen, wouldn't it be a lifelong regret? You have experience in this area, can you make some preparations then?"
Ye Congwen invited with a smile, "This kind of big scene where we often have to live on a running table for three months must be handled by an experienced person."
"Okay, anyway, I'm going to stay in your Iron Tower Village to raise my baby, and I'm a little bored with nothing else to do. Let's do this, you give me a thousand gold bars as a budget, and I promise to help you make it a success."
Bian Wanqing felt that there were few people in Tieta Village, and even if the running water mats were placed in Wanquan County, a thousand gold bars would be enough to last three months.
"A thousand gold bars?"
Ye Congwen gritted his teeth when he heard this. I can marry a beautiful wife with a thousand gold bars. Isn't that much more affordable than having a coming-of-age ceremony?
For a birthday party, wouldn't it be enough to just buy a few pigs, buy a few cows, kill them and prepare ten or eight dishes? It costs a thousand gold bars, can I get my money back?
If it weren't for Bian Chai, the Bian Mansion's spy, watching from the side, Ye Congwen would have really wanted to throw Bian Wanqing off the third floor. This prodigal woman must not let her interfere in spending money. The price of the buns is like gold.
"Why do you think there are too few? Not grand enough or luxurious enough? I only plan to rent 1,800 luxury boats to carry the flowing water mats from Iron Tower Village to Qingshan Array. The boats will be fixed with ropes, and wooden planks will be used to build pontoons between the boats. Put up lanterns and confetti, and then arrange for the singers in the painting and music studio to play the piano and music all night long."
"Sister Wanqing, you have a great idea. Use 1,800 boats to connect from Tieta Village to Qingshan Town. We sit on the boat and cook hot pot and eat fish fillets. The singers on the boat sing and dance, and the water flows under the boat. This is called the real flowing water mat!" Lin Xiaoyu interjected from the side, with a look of yearning and obsession on his face, as if he suddenly answered the question of going to the source of Lishui for the first time to dig for miraculous effects.
"Xiaoyu, this is a good idea. Usually, we usually eat pork and beef at running water banquets. This time we will change the way of eating and eat fresh fish fillets in hot pot. Have you ever eaten printed mandarin fish?"
How about we use more than fifty kilograms of printed mandarin fish slices to make hot pot this time?
But in this case, the funds are not enough, Ye Congwen, you have to add more money. "
"Stop, stop, stop, just pretend I haven't asked you. Bian Dian, have you arrived in guest room No. 1? I'll send your eldest daughter to bed first. She's been gone for a day, and she may be tired from walking."
When Ye Congwen heard that Bian Wanqing wanted to add more money, he immediately didn't want to listen to her anymore and urged Bian Zhuan to open the door quickly, just wanting to throw Bian Wanqing away.
Bian Zhui led everyone into the most spacious room with the best view. There was no need to light candles. The stars were shining all over the sky, and the room was filled with colorful crystal balls. Under the background of the stars, the whole person seems to be traveling in the starry sky.
"Wow! It's so quiet and beautiful in here! Is the roof made of glazed tiles?"
Lin Xiaoyu asked curiously, his eyes moving wildly, and he was overwhelmed by the scenery of the bright starry sky, and could not see it at all.
"Ye Congwen, what do you think of this starry night scene?"
Bian Wanqing saw Yu Yueyue, Lin Xiaoyu and the giant all smacking their lips and talking. Only Ye Congwen frowned and said nothing, so she asked.
"It's very beautiful. What if it rains and the sun comes out?"
Before Ye Congwen finished speaking, Bian Tiao slowly pulled up the curtains on the roof, covering the ceiling in an instant. The room immediately became pitch black, and no one could even be seen.
"If you like it, when you build the palace next year, how about decorating our wedding room like this?"
Ye Congwen wanted to throw Bian Wanqing on the bed, but the woman hugged his neck and refused to let go.
"Marriage room? You, you two are getting married?"
Bian Dian shouted in surprise from behind, and suddenly opened the curtain again, his hands shaking with fright.
"What a fuss, haven't you seen that the eldest daughter of your family has such a big belly? Our consistent rule in Iron Tower Village is to marry a child. At most, in June or July next year, the triplets will be born. Then you remember to come to Iron Tower Village to drink Wedding wine!”
Ye Rulang tapped Bian Dian's thin shoulder with his palm, almost knocking Bian Dian to the ground.
"Okay, okay, Bian Laojiu, hurry down and prepare the signature dishes. We'll get ready to go to bed after eating. We have to rush home tomorrow."
Ye Congwen hadn't thought of a way to get the best of both worlds, so he felt inexplicably irritable when he heard about the triplets.
Bian Dian said a few words to the follower behind him, and the man ran and jumped to prepare food for the giants.
Lin Xiaoyu was very interested in Bian Wanqing's idea of setting up a flowing mat in the river, so he lingered in the room and pestered Bian Wanqing with questions.
Ye Congwen asked Bian Zhu to pay off this month's food expenses, and the two of them walked to the accounting room on the first floor.
Bian Zhuan was familiar with Ye Congwen. As soon as he walked out of the gate, he gave a thumbs up to Ye Congwen behind Bian Wanqing's back and admired enviously:
"Brother Ye, you are such a capable person! Last time you brought Miss Ninth to my place, and now you bring Miss Ninth to my inn. Are you specifically targeting the future head of our Bian Mansion?"
"Don't talk nonsense. Bian Qianqian and I are just good friends. Don't make blind assumptions. By the way, didn't we agree to spread my high-end rice to all Jintang Inns in Bian Mansion and all high-end restaurants in Lizhou?
Why did it stop suddenly? "Ye Congwen warned in a low voice. Yu Yueyue was still following him not far or close behind him. It's better not to talk nonsense like this.
"I only recently found out what the problem was. Originally, my plan was implemented quite smoothly, but it was suddenly rejected by the headquarters in September without any reason or explanation.
Guess what the problem is? "
Bian Chai answered with a smile, but kept glancing towards Bian Wanqing's room on the third floor. Ye Congwen, such a shrewd person, understood it instantly. After thinking for a while, he said half-heartedly:
"I see, I had a falling out with your eldest lady in August. I guess she took my grudge and deliberately made trouble for me.
But now that we have reconciled, she will soon be the mother of my child. You should quickly talk to the people at your headquarters and get this matter settled before the end of the year.
If we can’t sell the rice in Tieta Village, how will the giants eat your inn’s signature dish in the future? "
"I'm more anxious than you, but there's nothing I can do now. The head of the Bian Mansion has changed again. If I continue to do things under the banner of the eldest lady, what if it backfires? You also know that once the emperor and his courtiers, This power play is very subtle."
Bian Chuan looked helpless and waited for Ye Congwen to slap him in the face.
Ye Congwen hesitated for a while, thinking that Bian Wanqing had been kicked out by the head of Bian Mansion. When the family changed to Bian Qianqian, mentioning Bian Wanqing's name would no longer work. After a long time, he whispered:
"It's okay, Bian Qianqian and I have a life-long friendship. As long as you let her know that this rice belongs to my Iron Tower Village, she will definitely nod."
"Brother Ye, tell me the truth. Are Miss Ninth and the eldest miss at odds? Did they fall out because of you? If you don't explain the complicated relationship to me clearly, I won't wade into this muddy water. ”
Bian's head shakes like a rattle, and even gods can't persuade a woman to become jealous. I don't want to get into trouble here.
"What's the point of discord? We will all be a family in the future. If she dares to ignore the interests of my Iron Tower Village, will she still want to enter the door of my Ye family in the future?"
Ye Congwen was instantly angry. It was understandable that there was a minor conflict. If Bian Qianqian stopped me from buying rice in Tieta Village just to make Bian Wanqing jealous, I wouldn't skin her later.
Bian Xuan said "Oh" meaningfully, as if he was despising Ye Congwen's previous concealment behavior. This kind of secretiveness of the blessing of Qi people is too little to regard me, Bian Xuan, as a brother.
Bian Xian thought about it for a while, and still felt that it would be safer to find a way to get the best of both worlds, and quietly suggested:
"Brother, I'm not telling you as a brother, you can't deliberately ignore Miss Ninth and act like you want to draw a clear line with her just because the eldest miss is pregnant.
The palms and backs of your hands are full of flesh, so you have to make a bowl of water even! "
"Brother Zhuan, what do you think? How can we do this kind of thing in a fair way?"
"It's not easy. Wouldn't it be enough if you let Miss Jiu get pregnant as well? Women like to compete all their lives. Before they get pregnant, they will compete with each other to see who gets more favors and who you spend more time with.
When they are all pregnant, the competition will be about who can have more children. Is having a son the same as having a daughter? "
Bian Zhuan said disdainfully that he was born in the Wuhou family and knew these things very well.
Ye Congwen had a feeling of enlightenment. Could this be the legendary plan to encircle Wei and save Zhao? Just as he was about to praise the young man from an aristocratic family for being so far-sighted, he suddenly heard a cold snort coming from behind him.
Turning around, she saw Yu Yueyue looking at Bian Dian coldly, with the fire-breathing look in her eyes. If she hadn't been standing in front of Bian Dian, she might have taken action to teach Bian Dian a lesson at any time.
