After rebirth, the Queen and I are on the run.

Chapter 697: So Good at Fighting Others
Grandma Qin asked again: "Where is the banquet for the mountain people and soldiers?"

Qin Dashi replied, "It's being made. It will be ready in three quarters of an hour at most. Then the Song family will ask the Xue family's servants to deliver it to the Xue family's warehouse for them to eat."

These mountain soldiers are all under Dalang’s command. This is the first time they follow Dalang to his home, so he must treat them to a feast.

"Okay." Grandma Qin nodded with satisfaction and helped Qin Dashi and the others to serve the dishes.

Braised lamb, steamed pork with chestnut flour, half-fried fish, fried duck with basil, braised chicken with dried seafood, bacon, double-mixed braised dishes, vegetarian dishes mixed with Liufu, stir-fried sprouts, and a dish of lamb offal soup.

The dessert was a plate of chestnut cake and a plate of kudzu powder and osmanthus cake, served with winter melon sweet tea.

Just looking at this feast, not to mention Aunt Alan and the others, even General Hua was stunned: "This, your family is too expensive, this feast is more sumptuous than the one General Liang invited us to eat... From the smell, there are seafood from the south, this is not cheap!"

"Seafood from the south?" Aunt Alan stood up, came to the table, and asked Grandma Qin: "Which dish has seafood? What does the sea look like?"

This was considered very rude, but Grandma Qin didn't mind. She pointed at the chicken stewed with dried seafood and said with a smile, "This is it. Under the chicken is a layer of dried seafood. It's the New Year's gift that Young Master Huang's family sent to my family... Before cooking this dried seafood, it's best to soak it for a day and a night..."

"Oh, the sea. I heard from Dalang's scholar grandfather that the sea is vast and boundless..."

Grandma Qin told Aunt Alan in detail what she knew.

Aunt Alan then asked about the cooking method of dried seafood.

Grandma Qin heard what Huang Yanglong said and gave an answer.

Ah Ling listened with great interest, but she was more interested in the cakes: "Are these the cakes you outsiders talk about? How are they made? How can they look so good? They are as transparent as ice cubes."

Then he hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, Grandma Qin. If the recipe can't be passed on, please don't tell me. I'm just asking out of curiosity."

Qin Xiaomi: "..."

Dramatic!

"It's just a pastry recipe. My family doesn't rely on it to make money, so of course I can tell you about it..." Grandma Qin smiled and explained the method of making kudzu powder and osmanthus cake.

They were talking so lively that the third village chief was alarmed... Look at the happy expressions of these women. Their hearts have fled outside the mountain. Are they willing to go back to live in the mountain? !
The third village chief smiled and said, "The food outside the mountain is really tempting. I am hungry just by smelling it."

Ah Hei's face turned dark instantly; the village chief didn't change at all.

Grandpa Qin hurriedly said, "Chief, Third Chief, Ah He, the Mountain Doctor, Ah Hei, Mengzi, it's almost noon, shall we go to Da Lang's house for a feast?"

He asked inquiringly in a tone that was afraid of angering the village chiefs and causing trouble for Dalang and the Wei army.

"Hey." The village chief stood up and motioned Grandpa Qin to lead the way.

"Everyone, please." Grandpa Qin was happy and took them, as well as General Hua, Guan Shuli, Xiaobai, and several men to the Jiang family's shop.

Not knowing the mountain folks’ tempers, Grandpa Qin didn’t prepare any wine.

But Wen Tao asked Mr. Qu Si to bring them some wine.

Before he even entered the door of Jiang's shop, the sentry came running to report: "General Flag, Mr. Qin, Mr. Qu Si is here to deliver wine, saying that he is sent by Mr. Wen Tao. Do you want to let him in?"

Hua Zongqi's face turned black. Can't Wen Tao stop causing trouble? !
"Mr. Qin, take the guests in. I'll be right back." Hua Zongqi went to the sentry post to chase them away. When he saw Mr. Qu Si, he was not happy: "Where's the wine? Bring it here."

Fourth Master Qu smiled bitterly: "General Hua knows my difficulties, please don't get angry."

The Qu family was just a half-slave family. Wen Tao asked him to deliver wine and have a meal at the same time so that he could get in touch with the mountain people and let the alliance of aristocratic families win over the mountain people for their own use. He had no way of refusing.

Hua Zongqi: "Humph, leave the wine, but get out. If the Wen family wants to entertain the mountain people, they can do so after the Qin and Jiang families' banquets. They are entertaining guests here, and you suddenly come in to butt in. How rude. You are a thousand-year-old family, and your rule for a thousand-year-old family is to rob people?!" Fourth Master Qu: "..."

No, so you are so good at scolding people?
Then my suggestion is that next time you see Wen Tao, you should confront him like this!

"Mr. Tao said that it is Yaoquan wine from the capital, a fairy product that costs one ounce of gold for one ounce of wine." Fourth Master Qu handed the box in his hand to General Hua.

One ounce of gold for one ounce of wine!

Hua Zongqi was so shocked that he gulped... Could he keep the wine? Then sell it and share it with the Qin and Jiang families?
If I don't sell it for money, I always feel like I'm drinking gold, it's stuck in my throat and I really can't swallow it!

"Go back and tell them that I was the one who drove you away. If Mr. Wen Tao has any dissatisfaction, let him go to our Captain Lang or General Liang to complain." After saying this, Hua Zongqi returned to the Jiang family with the box in his arms.

Hua Zongqi told them the value of the wine and sincerely suggested: "How about we exchange it for silver?"

One ounce of wine is worth one ounce of gold. It's gold. Who can drink it?
Although the chieftain and his men had not been out of the mountain for many years, they knew the value of gold. He said, "The master has the final say. We have no objection."

As soon as he said this, Grandpa Qin grinned, and for the first time today he was truly happy. He said, "Let's each drink a cup and taste the flavor of this fairy wine. The rest can be sold and we can share it when we get money."

Although this village chief is a serious person, judging from how he handles the wine, he is definitely a man who lives a normal life.

People who are living a good life can't be that bad.

Ah Hei also grinned, showing his white teeth, and nodded vigorously: "Okay, okay."

Not only can you taste good wine, but you can also sell it for a few cents. Anyone who disagrees is a fool.

Xiao Bai couldn't hold back his laughter anymore, so he pinched the back of his hand secretly, and finally managed to hold back his laughter. He nodded seriously and agreed: "Yeah, that's a good idea, I agree too."

The third village chief really couldn't laugh this time. His heart felt heavy and seemed to be falling.

"Come on, let's have a drink together." Grandpa Qin raised his glass, and everyone took a sip of the Yaoquan wine.

You know what, it tastes really good, clear and mellow, with a unique aroma. It doesn’t burn your throat but a small sip goes straight to your forehead, making you instantly sober.

With this wine, and the constant laughter of Qin Laoliu, Qin Ershu and Ah Hei, the banquet was very enjoyable.

As for the female members, everyone was really friendly with each other, so they had a great time eating. When they were having fun, Aunt Alan danced for them.

The bonfire dance in the mountains is very majestic and very different from the soft and light dance of the women outside the mountains.

And sing.

We couldn't understand the lyrics, but Aunt Alan's voice was so penetrating that even if we didn't understand the words, we were still fascinated by the song.

The guests at the Lu's Inn were all startled, and they followed the sound and came to the door of the Qin's shop to listen.

……

The banquet was very delicious. After the meal, Aunt Alan, Aunt Wen, as well as the first and third village chiefs suggested that they wanted to go to the workshop to take a look.

Today, both parties came here to get to know each other and then promote negotiations. The workshop was managed by Qin Xiaomi, so Qin Xiaomi agreed: "Okay, I'll take you around."

"Thank you, sister. You're so nice." A Ling praised her and wanted to hold her arm.

Qin Xiaomi pushed him away: "Before you give me the prescription for driving away the half-blood worms, it's not appropriate for us to get too close."
