The status is different, and Ning Changrong is not as presumptuous as before. At the dinner table, he repeatedly invited Chang Yuan to say a few words to everyone.

After several rejections, Chang Yuan had no choice but to accept. He watched everyone raise their cups first with a smile, "Today is the home of Mr. Ning's family. Since Mr. Ning has kindly invited you, I will take the lead. In special times, we will Substitute water for wine, I first respect Mr. Ning's family. Join our Chang Army, and we will be a family." After speaking, he immediately fell back and drank all the water in the glass, and the others followed suit.

After Ning Changrong finished drinking, he declined and said, "The general is too polite, our family is just ordinary people, we deserve it, we deserve it."

Everyone sitting at the table knew the details of their family, and when they heard Ning Changrong's humble words, the corners of their mouths couldn't help but twitch.

ordinary people?Ordinary people don't have such great skills. First, they escaped Hu Dadao and his group and led the villagers in their hometown to live on the mountain for more than half a year.

They exchanged a large amount of food with the hand crossbow blueprint, and exchanged a large amount of cloth and other supplies with peppers.If the imperial army hadn't helped them, the family would probably not have joined them.

Just joined, it was gunpowder, and repeating hand crossbows and so on.

One after another, which one can be called the work of ordinary people?

Chang Yuan laughed loudly: "Mr. Ning doesn't have to be too modest."

Ma Honglin also said: "Yes, brother Ning, we are all on our own, what are you doing with those vain? Don't be like those literati, and make it pedantic. You are so happy when people praise you, but you want to Act like you don't care."

Mr. Bai, who was sitting by the side, felt as if he had been internalized.

He glanced at Ma Honglin as if he didn't notice him, and he opened his mouth but still didn't say anything.

There are men and women at this table, Wang Xiujuan and Ning Qingxi, an old woman, and a half-grown child.

Those sitting here are all generals on the battlefield, or scholars like Mr. Bai from Zhihu. Although they are curious about these two people, it is difficult for them to talk too much, but the two of them did not feel bored.

Fu Linjun took care of them the whole time. Although it was Ning Qingxi's family banquet, after all, Fu Linjun's status was different, so she was still the leader during the period, for fear that the two of them would be reserved and talk to them non-stop.

Seeing that the main table above chatted and ate, all the people below let go, but some of them were restrained and did not dare to speak loudly.

There are also some female relatives below, but they are not qualified to sit at the main table above. Some women will look curiously at Wang Xiujuan and Ning Qingxi who are more prominent on the main table from time to time.

"Why can the two of them sit there?"

"Who knows? They must be capable, otherwise General Chang would let them sit where?"

These female relatives are also often invited by Mr. Fu Lin, but they are just chatting among women, just for friendship, and they rarely get in front of Chang Yuan.

For them, it is a great thing to be able to talk to a general's wife with the position of their own men, let alone sit with General Chang.

Ning Qingxi and her grandma have already discussed it, and neither of them is very good at dealing with these people, so the main person in charge of talking is Ning Changrong.

Except when Chang Yuan introduced the two of them at the beginning, they greeted everyone, and the rest of the two tasks were only to eat.

From time to time, Fu Linjun would pay attention to the two of them and say a few words to them to make them more integrated into the group.

Ning Lao Er and Ning Lao San's family, except Li Dafeng who did not come out of the house, were also sitting at the table. Beside their table, besides their own village people, there were also some other people who came to eat wine.

Everyone was a little cautious when facing these people. After a while, they found that the people opposite them were also a little cautious when facing them. Thinking of this, everyone relaxed a lot.

While eating and chatting, the relationship unknowingly became much closer.

"The one on top is your mother? It's really amazing to be able to sit at the same table as General Chang."

Ning's second son narrowed his eyes after being praised.

"Yes, my mother and the others are very powerful. At the beginning, our village suffered disasters. If it weren't for my mother, how could they be where they are today?"

Third Ning took the conversation and began to tell these people vividly how they avoided the refugees, how they ran to the mountains, and how they developed on the mountains.

Everyone was stunned after hearing it.

"Brother, you are so lucky to have such a good big brother."

"I just said, how did the chili come from? So your mother made it? It's so delicious, it's uncomfortable to eat too much, and I panic when I don't have anything to eat. Unfortunately, most of the chili is shipped to the Northland , we only have a little left here."

Youngest Ning was flattered by others, as if they were praising him, "I still have some peppers at home, and my mother will definitely continue to grow them. I will send some to your family when the time comes."

Second Ning felt that something was wrong, Mother never said anything about planting peppers, so she nudged him with her elbow, but how could Third Ning care about such things?Those in front of him were all soldiers, some of them were small captains. When he met these people in the past, he didn't bow his knees for fear of bumping into them.They were so friendly to him, and kept praising his elder brother's family. Isn't praising his elder brother's family just praising him?

Ning Lao San didn't feel Ning Lao Er's anxiety at all.

Those soldiers laughed happily when they heard Ning Lao San's promise: "That's a good relationship! Brother Changgui, don't worry, we will never take you for nothing, as much as it should be!"

Third Ning was even more happy to hear that.

Ning's second son secretly gave it a sigh of relief, but luckily it was bought with silver.

Everyone had a great time at the banquet. After the practice, Ning Changrong's family had gained a firm foothold in Chang Yuan's team. Everyone knew that his family was capable people that Chang Yuan valued.

……

They were all men in the army, they had prepared enough meals, and these people ate up all of them, so there was not much soup left.

After all the people were sent away, they started to wash the dishes again, and those who returned the dishes and chopsticks returned the dishes. With the help of Village Chief Ning and others, the speed was fairly fast, and they all finished before dark.

Before leaving, Wang Xiujuan did not forget to promise three pumpkins to Wang Hanting's mother, Mrs. Cai.

After tidying up the yard, they dealt with the two families casually and went to check what gifts they had received.

Ning Changrong and Wang Xiujuan were in charge of unpacking the parcels, and Ning Qingxi was in charge of keeping the accounts. Everything here must be remembered, so it is good to have a reference when giving gifts in the future.

Everyone is a man in the army, and most of them were farmers in the past. In fact, there is nothing precious, except for generals who have won battles, and they can get some gold, silver and jewelry as rewards. Wang Hanting and Ma Honglin gave them this.

But the jewelry at this time is not as valuable as silver, but it is also a wish of others, and they do not dislike it.
