C220 Lord Jin's Arrival

The day that the Lord Jin, from King Jing, arrived at Mu Family Village was the day that Mu Family Village was hosting a bonfire party.

In the evening, he brought two guards with him as he rode into the Mu Family Village. However, he discovered that it was completely empty inside, with no adults chatting or laughing, and no sounds of children playing around either … At first glance, it looked like an empty city.

He thought that something big had happened to his Mu Family Village and immediately instructed the guards beside him, "Hurry and go check if there are other people still alive."

The first thing he thought of was that his Mu Family Village might have encountered bandits, who not only robbed things, but also robbed people.

The bodyguard at the side was still somewhat rational. Seeing that the doors to every house were shut properly and there were still things hanging in the yard without a hint of disorder, he knew that this village hadn't been robbed or anything like that.

"Lord, this village doesn't have a trace of disorder or the smell of blood. This subordinate thinks that they went out together and did not meet with any mishaps." Guard A spoke out his conjecture in a neither humble nor arrogant manner.

Hearing his words, Lord Jin took a careful look at the surroundings. It was indeed as A had said. Every household had their doors and windows closed, and the yard was also very clean. Not a single trace of a bandit could be seen.

It was good that something did not happen to him. Lord Jin was a bit worried, but he was also a bit puzzled. Recently, there weren't any big festivals, so where would the entire village go? Even if there was a festival, most families would have people staying at home.

Before he could come up with an ugly team, another guard shouted, "Sir, there's smoke coming from over there."

Guard B, riding ahead, saw smoke coming from the end of the village and pointed it out to Lord Jin.

"Master, should we go over to take a look?" The guard asked.

"Let's go." It could be there.

"..."

When they rode closer, they saw that there was a bonfire in the empty land at the end of the village. Beside the bonfire, there were a few strange metal shelves, and the villagers were all carrying baskets full of things to place. Their old acquaintance Xu Yanlin stood on the side and directed them to do their work, he had a very happy expression on his face.

"Be careful, be careful. Don't knock down my roast lamb …" Xu Yanlin said to the few villagers who were carrying the sheep, afraid that they would accidentally overturn the sheep.

"Master Xu, we'll be careful. Don't worry." Amongst the four people carrying the sheep, there was a lively young man who playfully whistled at Xu Yanlin.

"Be careful. If something goes wrong, be careful of your skin." Xu Yanlin glared at him fiercely.

The man laughed, he did not care about Xu Yanlin at all, who knows about Mu Family Village, Master Xu is a good person, it's good for anyone, he laughs all day long.

"You don't seem to have any prestige?" Shen Jingli and Mu Chen were sitting not too far away from him, and upon seeing this scene, they couldn't help but mock him.

"That's because I'm kind." Xu Yanlin said shamelessly.

"Puchi …" Mercy, just him? Shen Jingli glanced at him mysteriously, then lowered his head and snickered while lying on top of Mu Chen's body.

Seeing him like that, Xu Yanlin wanted to get angry, but seeing Mu Chen's cold face, he did not dare do so.

The grill over there was designed according to Shen Jingli's blueprint and was already neatly arranged. There were also skewers of good meat and vegetables as well as some seasonings on the side.

Not too far away from here, there were seven iron cooking stoves. On top of each of them was a large pot, and two were simmering thin meat porridge with a large bone soup, and two were stewing the meat while the other three were stewing the soup.

It had already been simmering for two hours, and the place was already emitting a fragrant smell. Xu Yanlin took a deep breath, the smell was really fragrant, Shen Jingli was really a glutton, he would eat all these everyday.

"Sir Xu, shall we roast them?"

On the other side, the villagers had already finished setting up the sheep, and were waiting for Xu Yanlin's order to roast it.

"Let's start the roasting." Xu Yanlin said.

Because of Xu Yanlin's strong request, all the villagers of Mu Family Village came to participate in the bonfire party. The young men helped with the work, while the women took care of the children.

Seeing them like this, Xu Yanlin told the other ladies that he wanted to scoop a bowl of porridge for each child, then a bowl of radish pellets.

When the children heard his words, they all clapped happily and shouted, "Sir Xu is such a good person."

He was probably going to be a father soon. When Xu Yanlin saw these little lumps, he felt really happy, and thought that before long, there would also be a cute child calling him a father, making him very happy in his heart.

He stroked the heads of some of the children. "As long as you don't run around and listen to me, there's a lot to eat tonight."

Upon hearing that there would be a lot of food to eat tonight, the group of children immediately revealed expressions of ecstasy like hungry wolves. They said in unison, "We will definitely be obedient. We want to eat something delicious."

"Alright, then do not follow your own mother or Mama. You are not allowed to go outside to play, do you hear me?"

"Yes." The food was so attractive that the children answered seriously. As they talked, they lined up to receive the radish balls.

When the wives who were accompanying them heard this, they felt that Xu Yanlin was a good person. They accompanied their children to receive the porridge and radish balls, and watched the children eat with relish, feeling very happy in their hearts.

"This Zi An's wife is really amazing, this meatball is really not bad." A woman sighed as she ate the rice balls in the child's bowl.

"That's right. Ever since they came here, the children in the village all had blessings. Every day, they would be able to eat delicious snacks." Another woman said.

"The happiest person is Qing Sheng. After he became pregnant, he stayed at Zi An's house and ate the same supplement Zi An's wife every day. Recently, his skin has become more lively, and his complexion and complexion have improved by a lot." said a long-faced woman.

"Forget about Qing Sheng, just talking about Yi Lan's Mu Qi, I have been having fun with Mu Xi recently, and have been visiting him all day long, and have been eating a lot of white and fat food. Honestly speaking, Zi An's family's food is really good, there are a lot of normal things that can be seen, but when I go to his house, they all become delicious food. She said this with a bit of regret in his heart.

"If you say it like that, I also want to learn, and improve our family's food supply, but, Zi An's family will be returning to the capital in a few days, even if we want to learn, we won't have the chance."

"..."

As they chatted, they could not help but sigh.

In a short while, the entire roasted lamb was emitting an alluring fragrance, causing the women who had never eaten lamb to lick their mouths in desire.

The whole roast lamb had started to smell, and the grill had also begun to roast something. Xu Yanlin had also said that if everyone liked to eat anything, they would roast something themselves, and if they liked to eat any sauce, they would get it, so many people would go over there.

The happiest ones were the group of kids. After eating the radish balls, they immediately ran over and asked their parents to roast skewers for them.

In the eyes of the children, meat was the most delicious food. Everyone picked out a lot of skewers and lined up to let the person in charge of the barbecue to roast, or to let their parents roast, while the older children learned to roast themselves.

Seeing that everything was ready, Xu Yanlin officially said a few words, and then said for everyone to eat freely and enjoy themselves.

Everyone answered happily, then began to fill the soup, the meat, the wine, and the food.

Xu Yanlin dragged Mu Chen and gave toasts to every pile of people, said some words of thanks, and even made them taste good and fun.

Everywhere, then, there was the sound of wine and children fighting.

When Lord Jin and the two guards saw this scene, they consciously dismounted from their horses and tied them to a tree not far away. They walked over hesitantly.

"Brother, you're all Master Xu's subordinates, right? Come, come, let's drink and eat together." When a man who was not working in the mine saw Lord Jin and the other two, he assumed that they were guards working in the mine, so he pulled them along to eat and drink.

The guard that was being pulled looked at the man in confusion. He then turned around to look at Lord Jin, only to see that he was also being dragged over. He did not say anything further and obediently followed them, eating meat and drinking wine.

Lord Jin and the other two had never seen this kind of party before, so they all felt that it was very novel.

The man who had brought them in tore off a piece of the roasted lamb leg and told them to let go.

They ate meat and drank wine, feeling very comfortable in their hearts. After a while, they blended in with the surrounding men, drinking wine as they chatted.

After they were done eating, everyone started to dance around the campfire. Shen Jingli and Qing Sheng, because they were pregnant with children, didn't easily make any big movements. They sat on the side and watched them jump, humming a song while waving their hands.

When he was dancing, Xu Yanlin coincidentally saw Master Jin in the crowd. At first, he thought he was seeing things, but in the second round, he saw him again.

"Lord Jin?" he said uncertainly.1

Lord Jin was rather magnanimous, smiling at him. "Sir Xu, how are you doing here?"

It really was him. He thought he was seeing things.

Xu Yanlin was very happy and jumped to the side of Master Jin and held his shoulders, "Master Jin, you came. Why didn't you notify me? So I can send someone to pick you up. "

"It's not like I don't know the way. Why would I need you to pick me up? "Besides, we were lucky to run into you two holding a bonfire party." Master Jin drank a lot tonight, his face flushed red. He patted Xu Yanlin's shoulders and started to sing.

Lord Jin's voice was high and sonorous, a standard tenor. When the song was released, it won a unanimous praise. Everyone was in high spirits, which resulted in the party ending late.
