Fang Zerong was speechless.

"General, we\'re brothers who have gone through life and death together. Aren\'t you being too stingy?"

Tang Jinghong fell into thought. He really didn\'t want to give him these snacks, but Fang Zerong was indeed a brother who had fought alongside him. Forget it, give him one.

He opened the bag. The pancakes varied in size, but the same pancakes were placed together.

Tang Jinghong reached out to the smallest oil paper bag and handed it to Fang Zerong. "Take it."

Fang Zerong was speechless.

"General, can you give me the biggest one?"

Tang Jinghong pretended not to hear him. He stuffed the pancake into Fang Zerong\'s hand and ignored him. Then, he took out the biggest oil paper bag and opened it. It was a red bean pancake.

It was a kind he had never seen before. He took a bite out of curiosity. It was crisp, sweet, fragrant, and delicious.

Fang Zerong looked at the sesame pancake in his hand and then at Tang Jinghong\'s red bean pancake. He swallowed hard. He wanted to eat the one in the general\'s hand…

Tang Jinghong automatically ignored Fang Zerong\'s prying eyes and ate the red bean pancake in big mouthfuls. Then, he took out the second largest oil paper. It was a crispy pancake.

It was also a type that he had never seen before. He took a small bite. It was crisp, sweet, fragrant, and multi-layered. It was also extremely delicious.

Fang Zerong took a bite of the sesame pancake tentatively. After chewing twice, he was stunned. "General, this is incredibly delicious!"

Tang Jinghong glanced at Fang Zerong and took out the sesame pancake. The surface of the sesame cake was covered in sesame seeds. It was obvious that it was delicious.

Crispy, sweet, full of sesame fragrance…

Tang Jinghong was conquered after taking a bite. "It\'s indeed delicious. Qingzhi\'s culinary skills are better than those of the imperial chefs."

With that, he took out a few more pancakes to eat.

Seeing Fang Zerong\'s eager look, Tang Jinghong sighed with emotions. He gave him each of the other two pancakes. "It\'s time for you to find a woman!"

Fang Zerong seemed to have been hit in the acupuncture point. He stood rooted to the ground, but he was complaining in his heart. General, I know you\'re not a bachelor anymore, but can you not hurt bachelors like me? Did you forget that you were a bachelor not long ago?

Tang Jinghong continued to choose to ignore him. "Eat quickly. We have to continue after eating."

A carriage drove over, and Ning Yuting and his grandfather got out.

Ning Yuting helped his grandfather into the tea stall. "Grandpa, be careful."

Grandpa Ning was about to meet his granddaughter-in-law and was all smiles. "It\'s okay. This place is flat. I won\'t fall."

During the marriage proposal, an elder needed to be present, and Ning Yuting\'s parents were no longer around, so Grandpa Ning came personally.

The reason why he came to propose marriage so late was because Chu Qingyue requested it. She wanted to wait for Chu Qingzhi to come back. Only when this lucky star sister was around would she feel that the wedding was perfect.

Hearing their voices, Tang Jinghong stood up and greeted them.

Ning Yuting was very surprised to see Tang Jinghong. "Brother Jinghong, why are you here?"

Tang Jinghong said, "I have something to do in the capital."

Ning Yuting introduced him to Grandpa Ning. "Grandpa, his name is Tang Jinghong. He\'s Qingyue\'s fifth sister\'s fiancé."

Grandpa Ning was very well-informed in the capital. When he heard that it was Tang Jinghong and saw so many soldiers around, he immediately realized Tang Jinghong\'s identity and knelt down. "Greetings, General Tang."

At the same time, he was very shocked. This family was really not simple. They actually had a daughter who could marry the National General. He wanted to see his future in-laws even more.

In his shock, he was secretly happy that Ning Yuting had good luck. Not only did he marry a wife on this trip, but he also had a brother-in-law who was the National General. Indeed, one would be blessed after surviving a calamity.

Tang Jinghong helped Grandpa Ning up. "You\'re welcome, Old Master. Have a seat."

Grandpa Ning quickly agreed. He was honored to sit at the same table as the National General. "General Tang, please."

The three of them sat down. Tang Jinghong asked the owner of the tea stall to serve tea.

After chatting for a while, Tang Jinghong continued to head to the capital with his soldiers.

Grandpa Ning said solemnly, "Yuting, you must cherish Qingyue. Don\'t let her down."

Ning Yuting asked in a joking tone, "Grandpa, will you force me to take a concubine?"

"What concubine?" Grandpa Ning said seriously. "Don\'t be like those hedonistic sons of rich families in the capital. Yuting, be loyal to Qingyue. Just like your parents who loved each other. Do you understand what I mean?"

Ning Yuting did not want to take a concubine either. His previous fiancée had hurt his heart. He initially wanted to take revenge on her, but later on, he met Qingyue and dispelled this thought. He only wanted to protect Qingyue well, just like how Qingyue took care of him when he was seriously ill.

"Grandpa, I understand."

Grandpa Ning patted Ning Yuting\'s shoulder. "Let\'s go. I really want to see my granddaughter-in-law."

Ning Yuting smiled. "Okay."

…

In the Chu Village.

After the land manager finished measuring, he noted down the location and size. This land was really barren. The land manager gave a price of one tael of silver for an acre of land. "Miss Chu, there are a total of twenty acres of land. Just give me twenty taels of silver."

So cheap?

Chu Qingzhi agreed readily and said, "Sir, it\'s already noon. Why don\'t you stay for lunch?"

The land manager refused. "There\'s no need, Miss Chu. It\'s close to the county city. You don\'t have to trouble yourself."

Chu Qingzhi sincerely wanted to treat this land manager to a meal to express her gratitude.

"It\'s no trouble. My family will treat the villagers to a meal tomorrow. Many villagers came to our house today to help prepare for tomorrow\'s banquet. There are many people who will stay for lunch."

"Is that so?" The land manager hesitated for a moment before agreeing. "Then I\'ll have to trouble you."

"Sir, please."

When the family heard the identity of the land manager, they immediately invited him to take a seat and called the village chief over to accompany this esteemed guest.

The land manager thought to himself that this family was really hospitable. No wonder the county magistrate thought so highly of Chu Qingzhi. She was polite and capable.

There were a total of five tables. The aunties quickly served the dishes. The villagers were not particular and started eating after the dishes were served.

Chu Qingzhi poured a bowl of beer for the land manager. "Sir, try this."

The land manager was considered experienced and knowledgeable, but when he looked at the beer, he was puzzled. "This is?"

The village chief answered, "This is beer. Sir, try it."

"Beer?" The land manager took a sip and his eyes lit up. "It\'s delicious. Who made it?"
