Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
As the head of the family, Han Baozhu naturally had to say a few words. He was facing familiar villagers, so he was not nervous. “The villagers watched Lan grow up. It hasn’t been easy for this child all these years. He and Ah Jue have experienced a lot of hardship. It’s really not easy for them to finally get back together. In the future, everyone should love them more. Today, everyone has witnessed their happiness. I hope they can be safe in the future.”
Parents’ hope for their children was safety. Nothing was better than living well.
Evervone nodded.
Then, Nangong Jue also said, “I’ll treat Lan well and be filial to my parents-in-law. I hope everyone will accept me as their son-in-law.”
“If you treat Lan badly in the future, the entire village will settle the score with you. No matter how rich you are, it won’t work,” someone shouted.
The people around him hooted.
“Don’t worry. All the a.s.sets under my name, including all kinds of real estate, have been transferred to Lan’s name now. In other words, I’m working for Lan now. If I let her down, I’ll be kicked out with nothing.” Nangong Jue spread his hands. “So, I won’t dare.”
Everyone immediately laughed.
“Then won’t you become a freeloader?” Someone teased Nangong Jue again.
“That’s right.” Nangong Jue admitted generously. “Isn’t it as the saying goes? There’s food to eat if you listen to your wife, so I’m proud to be a freeloader.”
After being stunned for a moment, everyone laughed again. However, Nangong Jue was successfully acknowledged by the villagers because of this.
“Here, I have something to say.” Nangong Jue raised his hand. When everyone quietened down, he turned to look at Le Yao. “Lan has always treated herself as the daughter of Pear Tree Village. What she wants the most is for everyone to become rich. Therefore, next, we’ll discuss with the county, town, and village to see how to develop the Pear Blossom Mountain. If we can make our pears into a brand…”
When everyone heard this, they immediately exploded. If this place could be developed, everyone would be able to find a job here. This was a good thing.
“Alright, we still need to discuss this matter. Once we confirm the plan, we will inform everyone immediately,” the village chief said loudly.
Everyone immediately calmed down, but they were all looking forward to it.
“Alright, I’m done talking. Let’s start the banquet. Today, everyone must eat and drink well. Don’t be restrained. We’ve prepared enough.” Nangong Jue gestured.
Fang Ming waved his hand, and the well-trained attendants immediately removed the snacks, sunflower seeds, and so on before serving cold dishes.
The few stoves also opened fire at the same time. Immediately, they started cooking.
Everyone was quickly attracted by the food because they had heard of many dishes and had never eaten them before. For example, sea cuc.u.mber rice, abalone soup, lobster…
In addition to the main courses, there was also ice cream and various pastries.
Especially the children, they were overjoyed. At this time, the adults could not care less about them, so they ate happily as if it was the new year.
When they were almost done eating and drinking, Han Baozhu and Han Xiangdong brought Nangong Jue to each table to toast everyone.
Le Yao, on the other hand, was happy and idle. She sat there eating and drinking.
“Han Binglan, you’re so lucky.” Han Bingmei ran over and said sarcastically..
