Chapter 463: Decree
Chapter 463 Imperial Decree
The servant stood in front of the incense table, his eyes slowly swept across the crowd, he took out the imperial decree and opened it, and soon the servant's high voice sounded.
"By God's blessing, the emperor said: Here is Lan, a woman from Shanghe Village, Anren Town, Chongxian County, Yishui County. I hereby confer the title of sixth-rank township lord, three thousand households in Shiyi... hereby!"
After the imperial decree was read out, there was silence in the courtyard. After a long while, Yang Lan'er finally realized.
Salute respectfully and receive the imperial decree: "My wife accepts the decree to thank you."
Except for a few people and a few children in the courtyard, everyone present looked dull.
The servant curled his lips inwardly, shocked!
"Ahem, get up!"
Yang Lan'er glanced at Steward Wang.
Steward Wang just woke up like a dream, stood up quickly, and stuffed a purse that he had prepared earlier: "The angel has worked hard all the way."
The waiter burst into a smile instantly: "It should be, it should be, Mr. Xiang is too polite."
Wang Butler bowed his hands to the two rows of guards in the yard, and smiled happily: "The angels have come from afar, we should do our best to be the landlords. In the evening, our husband...Xiangjun has prepared a banquet at Qingyuan Restaurant. At that time, I would like to ask all the adults to show respect."
From then on, he had to change his tune and call his wife the township lord.
At this point, he really couldn't believe what happened in front of him, it was too unreal.
From now on, his wife is no longer a commoner. Lord, I really care about my wife.
The servant smiled at the corner of his mouth: "Our family is here first to thank the Lord for your hospitality, and we are all welcome."
The servant left, and Su Yongqing also left with him. He still had to arrange the residence of these people.
Yang Lan'er looked at Su Yongyuan, and asked anxiously: "Mr. Su, do you think there is something wrong with today's arrangement?"
Actually, it was the first time for her to deal with people in the palace in her past and present lives, so it is always right to ask more.
When Steward Wang heard the words, his whole body tensed up, and he pricked up his ears. He didn't know what to say, and wanted to hear what Mr. Su had to say?
Su Yongyuan glanced at her, opened his fan with a flick, and said with a smile: "You arranged it very well, don't be too deliberate."
Yang Lan'er glanced at the fan in the man's hand, she wanted to ask him: Is it cool?
Concentrating on his thoughts, he nodded slightly: "That's good, butler, you make arrangements at the restaurant, and remember to move a few jars of our brewed wine over there."
"No, madam." Steward Wang responded, and immediately got busy with all his energy.
Yang Lan'er returned to the main courtyard, sat by the window and meditated quietly by herself. If she wanted to live well in ancient times, she must hug the emperor's thick thigh. When the angel returns tomorrow, she has to prepare some gifts for the emperor.
It’s too expensive, otherwise I can’t explain why she, a peasant woman, has such a valuable item.
Giving some shows that gift is more important than friendship, and it should be delivered to the heart of the emperor.
Hey, headache!
It was dusk, and the firecrackers outside Qingyuan Restaurant were ringing non-stop. The whole restaurant was full of joy. No matter the waiter or shopkeeper, the smiles on the faces of the restaurant never stopped.
Tonight, the private room on the second floor is closed to the public, only the lobby is open, but the business is still booming.
When the customers in the hall saw the county magistrate entering the restaurant with his servants and majestic guards, the first floor fell silent.
Su Yongqing laughed and comforted everyone: "You don't need to be cautious, we are also here to eat."
After finishing speaking, he politely asked the waiter to wait on the second floor.
Yang Lan'er greeted them on the second floor with her pregnant belly upright. After all the people were arranged and everyone was seated, she was already so tired that her back hurt.
