Chapter 96, Quota

   Daohua followed Yan Zhigao and Mrs. Li, and welcomed Li Xingnian into the door. The group was talking while walking towards the old lady’s yard.

   "Sister, why did you think of growing watermelon? And it's so good." Li Xingnian asked Mrs. Li.

  He is a businessman, and he hasn't traveled from the north to the south in the past few years, but he clearly knows that watermelon is not easy to grow.

  Just after entering Xingzhou City, he passed by Yan’s shop and took a look at the watermelons sold in the shop. Good guy, it’s better than what he saw in Beijing.

  Ms. Li smiled and said: “It’s not the ghost girl Daohua. Last year, she planted two acres of watermelon in her hometown and harvested some seeds. It just so happened that the village we bought had vacant land, so let’s plant it.”

  Li Xingnian looked at Daohua, who was next to him, her expression and demeanor were very close to her, with a smile in her eyes: "You are brave, so you are not afraid of planting badly?"

  Ms. Li glanced at Yan Zhigao, and smiled: “I was worried about this problem at the time, so I didn’t say at home, Master, don’t be angry.”

  Yan Zhigao waved his hand: "You can take care of me at home, don’t worry, you don’t have to tell me everything."

  Li Xingnian took the words and said, "Fortunately, the crooked hit is right, and these watermelons have been planted. Otherwise, it would not have been harvested now."

  Ms. Li smiled and nodded: "Who said no, but the watermelon can be harvested thanks to the support of the old lady and the busy work of the third brother."

  Hearing this, Yan Zhigao's face smiled more.

   Daohua followed the adults and listened to them without interrupting. Seeing that Mrs. Li saw her natal brother, her brows stretched and her expression was happy, and her heart also rejoiced.

  Although my mother has been keeping correspondence with her natal family over the years, she has seen only a handful of times. No wonder she is so happy.

  Soon, a group of people came to the old lady’s yard.

  Li Xingnian pleased Mrs. Yan and met with Yan Zhiyuan and Yan Zhiqiang before sitting down to talk and chat.

   "Second uncle, eat grapes."

  Daohua smiled and put a plate of iced grapes on the Li Xingnian coffee table.

  Looking at the dark purple grapes that were big and round like agate, Li Xingnian smiled and said, “This grape is rare, I want to taste it.” As he said, he took one and put it in his mouth.

   "Well, it's so sweet!"

  The old lady Yan smiled and said: "The old lady feels the same way, I eat more delicious than watermelon."

  Li Xingnian ate another one, and then pushed the plate towards the rice flower: "Your little girl loves this thing, I will just try a few." This thing is not cheap, it is rare in the market, and my sister's house probably doesn't have much.

   Daohua was stunned for a moment, then her eyebrows were curved, and she pushed the plate back with a smile: "Second Uncle, you can eat with your stomach open. I planted this grape myself."

  Li Xingnian looked surprised: "You still grow grapes?"

  Daohua raised her head and said proudly: "I can grow a lot of things."

  Li Xingnian smiled: "You girl is not ashamed."

Daohua glared: "What's so embarrassing about this, I'm telling the truth." After speaking, he pushed the plate again, "Second Uncle, do you eat? Although I didn't grow many grapes this time, it is definitely enough for you. It's hard to eat."

  This time, Li Xingnian did not push back.

  They have eaten grapes, but they are rare, and the price is high, and there are many children in the family. Every time he tastes one or two, he really appetites and eats, never before.

   "The second uncle will enjoy the blessing of our rice flower."

  Yan Zhiyuan watched the interaction between the two and smiled: "Look at Daohua, get close to her second uncle."

   Hearing this, Mrs. Li glanced at Yan Zhiyuan and said with a smile: "It's probably the two uncles who haven't seen her before, but now they are rare."

Seeing that Li Xingnian likes to eat grapes, Daohua said, "Second uncle, when you go back, I will bring you some more, and let the elder uncle, the eldest aunt, the second aunt, and the cousins ​​and cousins ​​try it. "

  Li Xingnian: "Then the feelings are good. Your cousins ​​are all looking forward to your going to Fucheng to play. It was really unfortunate the last time you went."

   Daohua smiled and said, "It's okay, I will go again next time."

  At this time, Yan Zhiyuan spoke again: "Daohua, you can relax a little bit. Didn't you say that you want to use grapes to make wine? Don't run out of grapes then."

  Li Xingnian didn’t care about the other meanings in Yan Zhiyuan’s words. Instead, he looked at Daohua and said unexpectedly: “You still make wine?”

  It's hard to say that she can, and she smiled and said, "If you don't, you can learn."

  Yan Zhiyuan: "Brother Xingnian, listen to this. Don't let Daohua waste something as expensive as grapes. She listens to you, please persuade her."

  Li Xingnian looked at Daohua who was already pouting, and smiled at Yan Zhigao and the old lady: "There are brother-in-law and old lady here, how can I put my beak?"

  "But, I know a little bit about this wine. If it can be made, it will definitely be a huge profit. If nothing else, the rich and powerful will definitely be rushing."

   Daohua nodded: “That’s right, we don’t have much to offer at home. When Xiao Yeyang comes back in the future, I will entertain him with wine, and it won’t be too shabby.” Wine is rare in ancient times and is a rare thing.

  As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Yan and the others all looked over. They didn't expect Daohua to think of this.

  Li Xingnian's expression moved slightly, and he smiled and asked, "Will that nobleman come again?"

   Daohua groaned: "He promised me, he should come."

  Li Xingnian nodded: "Then you should prepare some good things to entertain others."

   Daohua agreed: "Yeah, wine is fruit wine, not so intoxicating, just suitable for entertaining Xiao Yeyang."

  As soon as the voice fell, Ping Tong, who was next to Mrs. Li, hurriedly walked in: "Master, madam, the little prince sent someone over and said that he was giving thanks to the old lady and the eldest girl."

  Yan Zhigao stood up with a ‘hit’, and then felt that the reaction was too great, so he sat back, and the others were not much better than him, all agitated.

   Daohua was an accident: "Xiao Yeyang gave me and my grandmother a thank you gift?"

  Ms. Li immediately asked: "Where is the person?"

   Pingtong: "Waiting outside."

   Yan Zhigao: "Please come in quickly."

   Soon, a middle-aged man in charge came in with a brocade box.

Although he met with Mrs. Yan and Yan Zhigao in advance, he said, "The little prince said, he likes the vegetables and fruits that the old lady gave. This is a thank you gift prepared by the little prince." Give it to Mrs. Li.

Mrs. Li took it and gave it to Mrs. Yan.

  At this time, the manager looked at Daohua again, and handed out the brocade box in his hand: "This is what the little prince ordered to give you."

  "What is it?" Daohua took the brocade box curiously, did not hide it, and opened the box on the spot.

  There are three envelopes in the box.

  Yan Zhigao saw the envelope, ecstasy flashed in his eyes.

Daohua opened one of them, and when she knew that this was the admission notice of Wangyue Academy, she immediately smiled and ran to the old lady with the envelope: "Grandma, Xiao Yeyang will give it to the eldest brother, the third brother, and the fourth brother. It’s time for Wangyue Academy."
