Wang's little lady

The backyard of the Yamen is a large courtyard specially used for the residence of the serving county magistrate.

At this time, in the lobby, the servants served food one after another. Jiang Huaizhi changed into light clothes and waited at the table.

"Sir, the Xie family girl and the old lady are here."

The young man bowed and saw the adult extending his hand to indicate to sit down, so he led the three of them to sit down.

It was the first time for Mrs. Xie to see such an important official, and she still sat at the same table to eat.

If you blow it out, people will look at you.

However, I was a little nervous in my heart, and I couldn't help but show it on my face.

Xiaoya couldn't speak anyway, so she just stared at the table when she sat down, as long as there was something delicious.

Anko was not so nervous, but more embarrassed.

The person I met earlier, I didn't expect to meet again, and the other person turned out to be my immediate boss in the city where I lived. It was such a coincidence.

Jiang Huaizhi could sense the restraint between the two of them. As the host, he smiled to break up the awkward atmosphere:

"How are you two doing lately?"

"I have never met this girl before, but is she a relative or friend at home?"

The Xie family seems to have only one younger brother. I have never seen such an older sister in the family before.

Granny Xie did not expect the county magistrate to be so kind, as if she had seen him for the first time, and the tension in her heart eased a little.

"Thank you for your concern, sir. Our family is doing well now. We have food, drink and shelter. Our life is pretty good."

"Her name is Xiaoya. She was picked up by my family. Although she can't speak, she is diligent with her hands and feet. She is a good child."

"How are you doing, sir? Haha."

Jiang Huaizhi saw that the old lady seemed less restrained and talked to her with a smile:

"Please bear with me. It's not a bad idea."

"That's good, that's good, hehehe."

Granny Xie really didn't know how to answer the call.He had no choice but to turn his attention to Hongdou for help. It was better to let his granddaughter take action in this situation.

However, Hongdou and Mr. Jiang are not familiar with each other. They have only met each other twice, one of which was in the court.

But when someone invites you to a meal, it’s not easy to just sit and cook.

No matter what, I still want to express my gratitude.

"Thank you for being your host today. I can't hide it from you. We were shocked when we saw the county magistrate was you in the hall just now."

"I haven't recovered from it for a while."

"Please don't blame me for being disrespectful."

Seeing Anko being so polite was completely different from how sharp-tongued she was when he first met her.

Jiang Huaizhi made a rare joke: "But I look too scary?"

Hongdou didn't expect the other party to ask this, and was a little surprised. This adult seemed quite easy-going?
"Of course not, it's just that the adults are too young, which is surprising."

"I heard from people in the town that it is very difficult to study for the imperial examination. Many people who take the examination will only be scholars throughout their lives."

"So it's hard to avoid admiration when you see that your Excellency is already an official at such a young age."

Jiang Huaizhi looked at Hongdou with a smile. This girl was still so good at talking. She didn't look like she was raised by someone like the Xie family.

"Hahaha, Jiang, thank you girl for the compliment."

"It's nothing important to invite the three of you here today. First, I have received the tea sent by Miss Xie and I have tasted it. It is really good."

"Secondly, I have been transferred here, and I have no relatives or friends around me. It is rare to meet acquaintances today, so I wanted to get together."

"Today is just a simple meal, just enjoy it as much as you can."

Even though they are here, Hongdou and the other three will not be disappointed, and they start to move with Mr. Jiang's chopsticks.

Xiaoya couldn't wait any longer.

There was so much delicious food, but no one touched it, and she didn't dare to eat it alone.Now that I can finally use chopsticks, it’s natural to make food.

Although Xiaoya ate well, she ate a lot, and one meal shocked Jiang Huaizhi and the servants behind her.

This girl looks so thin, how can she eat so well?

This meal is equivalent to what other people eat in a day.

Jiang Huaizhi has seen some of the market. After all, the other party is a little girl, so it is not easy to treat her as an alien.

However, the food on the table was indeed not enough, so Jiang Huaizhi asked someone to quickly deliver more food.

Hongdou explained with some embarrassment: "We were in a hurry to go out in the morning, so we just ate two pancakes to make up for it."

"Xiaoya has a better appetite, so it cost you money."

Jiang Huaizhi smiled and shook his head. The little girl has a long body, so it doesn't matter if she eats more.

After the meal, Jiang Huaizhi made a few cups of tea given by Hongdou.

"This tea is refreshing and refreshing. Even if you work at night, you don't have to worry about getting sleepy. It's really good."

If the gift is liked by others, the person giving the gift will naturally be happy as well.

"As long as you like it, this tea will relieve the heat in the summer. If you use mountain spring water to cold brew it, it will also have a great flavor."

"But it's better to drink less at night, so as not to have a bad rest."

"If you like it, sir, I will send it to you after the next batch is made."

Jiang Huaizhi put down the teacup and listened to Hongdou talking about tea. He didn't feel trivial at all.

At the same time, I kept thinking in my mind that the tea can be kept so fresh and tender, and the preparation is simpler than the tea on the market today.

"Does this tea girl have any plans?"

When Anko heard this, she was slightly stunned, but she came back to her senses after a moment.

"To be honest, sir, I like this tea myself. I plan to make it in large quantities and sell it. I have already made a verbal agreement with the Zhao family in the town."

"We are working together."

While Hongdou was answering, her mind was racing rapidly. She was already wondering, as the person in power in Fengdu County, why would he suddenly invite a commoner like them to dinner?
I guess Master Jiang also likes this tea and wants to put it into practice, right?

Thinking of this reason, Hongdou relaxed a little. It is better to know what our county magistrate has in mind than to remain in the dark all the time.

Jiang Huaizhi sniffed the tea, it was indeed good tea.

"If Miss Xie really wants to do this tea business, I'm afraid she'll be too busy, right?"

"Daqing is such a big country, and only your family knows how to make new tea. Even if you are busy day and night, it is not enough."

After Hongdou thought for a moment, he said implicitly:

"Reporting to your lord, I plan to use the limited edition high-end route for this tea, so there won't be too many finished products at one time."

Mrs. Zhao's thirty kilograms were sold for 300 taels, which ordinary people might not be able to afford.

Moreover, tea was heavily taxed, so she could not sell it at a low price.

"Even if the limit is limited, there are many wealthy businessmen and dignitaries in Daqing. Even if the requirements are raised, it will be difficult for the Xie family alone to supply it."

Hongdou was a little unsure of Master Jiang's true thoughts. Could it be that he wanted to get a piece of the pie based on his status?

She was being targeted before she even started doing this. I really don’t know if it’s a good thing or a bad thing.

"My little girl is stupid. I would like to ask, in your opinion, what should I do?"

Jiang Huaizhi held the teacup, looked at the nervous Hongdou and laughed: Who does Miss Xie think of him?
"Jiang took the liberty to ask, does Miss Xie's new tea-making method only make green tea, or does it have other styles?"

When Anko heard this, she couldn't help but her eyes widened slightly.

I don't know if officials are smarter, or if Mr. Jiang is extra smart, I can all guess whether he is the same as her. . .

Jiang Huaizhi looked at the other party's reaction and had an idea. It seemed that there was more than one way to make it.

Then he expressed his plan.
