Chapter 74 Good news!
During the New Year holidays, there are indeed a lot of things to do at home.

But no matter how many things he had to do, her figure often appeared in his mind.

The way she sowed and planted vegetables was so casual and neat...

She looked so serious when she was cutting vegetables and cooking in the kitchen...

She was so frank and direct when reporting to her leaders...

Every scene was like a big movie, playing over and over in his mind.

Even when he came to her house to pick her up yesterday, he appeared calm on the surface, but his heart was beating faster than ever before.

But after thinking it over, he was still unwilling to express his feelings.

First of all, they had only known each other for a few months.

If I tell her, it’s still a question whether she believes it or not, let alone agree to it.

Secondly, what she said was right. The country needed her now, and she had no time to quarrel with Lu Yun or talk about love.

More importantly, he was afraid of being rejected.

As he was thinking, Li Qian had already parked the car in front of him.

Li Qian was the middle-aged man who delivered the food last time.

He is not only Song Ze's bodyguard, but also Song Ze's martial arts teacher, and even more so Song Ze's close friend regardless of age difference.

But because Song Ze works in the company, he can't follow Song Ze all the time.

So only when Song Ze is on vacation will he stay by Song Ze's side.

Seeing that Song Ze had been silent since he got in the car, he suddenly asked, "We just separated, and you're already thinking about Miss Gu again?"

As soon as Li Qian said this, Song Ze frowned, "How did you know?"

"Third Young Master, I watched you grow up." Li Qian said with a smile, "How could I not know what you are thinking?"

"Besides, there are seven or eight cooks at home, and you don't like any of them. Yet you specially go to Miss Gu's house for a free meal. Isn't that obvious?"

The Third Young Master is indeed picky, but the cooks at home are not bad either.

You know, they have all won international awards.

Before joining the Song family, they all cooked for their leaders.

Not everyone can afford the food they cook.

But even such a group of chefs, with their carefully researched dishes, could not catch the Third Young Master's eye.

He had eaten the dishes cooked by Miss Gu last time.

It tastes really good.

But compared to what the chefs make, there is still some distance.

But the third young master just likes it.

What does this mean?
This shows that the third young master has a special liking for her.

Not to mention that Miss Gu’s cooking skills are pretty good, even if Miss Gu cooked him a dish that was so salty that it was inedible, he would still eat it with gusto!
Listening to what Li Qian said, Song Ze's brows furrowed more and more, "Is it so obvious?"

Li Qian nodded, "It's that obvious."

Song Ze was silent for a few minutes, then asked again: "Do you think she figured it out?"

Her neighbor Aunt Wang noticed it, and other people in the village noticed it, and now Li Qian also noticed it...

What about her?
Doesn't she still think that she likes Lu Yun?
Li Qian hesitated for a moment and said, "Well, I'm not sure..."

Song Ze was a little disappointed that he didn't get the answer he wanted, but he felt a little better when he thought that he could come to Baisha Village to meet her in a few days.

……

In the next two days, Gu Mingzhu was busy like a top.

There is a lot of work to be done in the greenhouse, and ancestor worship is also imminent.

Because she was not familiar with the process of burning incense and lighting firecrackers, the senior members of the team took her to rehearse the process several times.

After the rehearsal, Gu Mingzhu felt more confident.

Early in the morning on the twelfth day of the lunar calendar, she changed into the new clothes prepared for her by the team and took Minghua directly to the ancestral hall.

Because she was the one who burned the first incense, before her arrival, everyone else in the team could only wait at the entrance of the ancestral hall and no one could go in.

As soon as she arrived, several old elders followed her obediently. She led everyone into the ancestral hall, kneeling every three steps and knocking every nine steps.

There were quite a few people standing outside the ancestral hall.

There were men, women, young and old, from our team and from other teams.

To be honest, it’s the first time in the whole Baisha Village that a woman burns the first incense and nods the first firecrackers!
Look, when everyone saw it, some were envious, some were admiring.

"I'm seventy-six this year. This is the first time I've seen anything like this in my entire life. But this girl on your team is really capable!"

"Of course not! She solved the problem that the experts from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences couldn't solve! She not only brought honor to your team, but also to our entire Baisha Village!"

"That's right! Jiangwan Village next door built a greenhouse and was proud of it for a few years! Now our Mingzhu has become the hope of the whole country, and our Baisha Village can be proud of her forever!"

"But then again, let's just keep this a secret within our village, and don't tell anyone outside! The leaders have issued instructions, so we shouldn't cause trouble for Mingzhu."

"Of course! Whether we can eat rice every day in the future depends on her. Whoever causes trouble to her will cause trouble to the country! Not to mention that the leaders will not let him off easily, we will not let him go!"

Outside the ancestral hall, everyone was talking one after another, and it was very lively.

In the ancestral hall, Gu Mingzhu led a group of elders to burn incense and kowtow to their ancestors.

As she kowtowed, the old patriarch wiped his tears and said loudly to the tablets of his ancestors: "Ancestors, our Gu family has produced a talent who can help the country."

"Today, Mingzhu will lead our Gu family to burn incense to our ancestors! We hope that our ancestors will bless Mingzhu!"

As soon as the old patriarch finished speaking, hundreds of Gu family members in the ancestral hall shouted, "May our ancestors bless Mingzhu and our team!"

The ancestral hall was not very big, and their voices echoed in the hall. People outside the hall could hear them clearly.

When the people outside heard this, whether they were from Team 1 or other teams, they all shouted: "May our ancestors bless Mingzhu and our Baisha Village!"

When Gu Mingzhu agreed to burn the first incense and fire the first cannon, she actually didn't take the matter seriously.

Firstly, she had never lived in the village before and didn't have much idea about the clan.

Secondly, the original owner was a girl and had never participated in ancestor worship activities on the twelfth day of the lunar year before.

In the original owner's memory, the ancestor worship activities on the twelfth day of the lunar year, from burning incense to setting off firecrackers, to buying groceries and cooking, were all done by men.

No woman ever got involved.

But now, she was kneeling at the front, listening to the shouts behind her that were getting louder and louder, and was suddenly touched by the power of the clan.

In this small village, people often have disputes and dissatisfactions.

There will also be times when you are jealous of me and I am envious of you and can't stand seeing you do well.

But when it comes to major issues, no matter whether you are from Team 1 or any other team, everyone is of one mind.

It was also at this second that the system brought good news to Gu Mingzhu!
