Chapter 133 Magistrate Sun is Drunk
"Everyone, stand up!" After taking a look at the villagers around him, County Magistrate Sun stepped forward and personally helped up the villager closest to him.
Upon seeing this, the villagers helped each other to stand up, and everyone's eyes revealed infinite expectations and sincere respect for County Magistrate Sun.
Afterwards, Li Youran led Magistrate Sun and the three officials into the spacious and bright courtyard of the new house, and carefully arranged comfortable tables and chairs for them to sit on.
After everyone was seated, Magistrate Sun and the three officials began to carefully appreciate the unique layout of the courtyard and the exquisite furnishings of each room.
At this time, Father Li stood quietly by, patiently introducing every detail to County Magistrate Sun one by one.
Just at this moment, Sun Wanyi squatted down lightly, looked at Li Youran tenderly, and said softly: "Sister Youran, today is the day when your family is celebrating the raising of the beam, and I have specially selected an exquisite gift for you." As she spoke, she took an exquisite wooden box from the maid beside her.
Li Youran was flattered and waved his hands repeatedly, his face full of gratitude, and quickly responded: "No need to spend so much money, we have only just met twice!"
Sun Wanyi smiled slightly, shook her head gently, and gently put the wooden box into Li Youran's arms, saying softly: "Take it quickly, this is not a precious thing."
Li Youran had no choice but to accept it, a grateful smile on her face: "Thank you, Sister Wanyi." She took the gift with a smile and thanked Sun Wanyi in a sweet voice.
Sun Wanyi looked at Li Youran's cute appearance and couldn't help laughing: "Sister Youran, please sit with me for a while!" She looked around and finally found an empty seat, then gently took Li Youran's hand, motioning her to sit down with her.
Li Youran followed Sun Wanyi obediently, and the two sat together. The surrounding villagers cast curious glances at the daughter of Magistrate Sun.
Just then, Li Yuanbo and Li Kangze came over.
They bowed slightly to Sun Wanyi to show their respect. Sun Wanyi smiled and replied, "No need to be polite!" When she saw these two men with extraordinary looks and elegant temperaments, she couldn't help but feel moved.
They seemed to be about the same age as herself, which made her feel a little familiar.
Li Yuanbo and Li Kangze straightened their backs slightly, nodded politely, turned around and left, continuing to warmly entertain other guests.
Song Nanyao originally wanted to say hello to Li Youran and Sun Wanyi, but considering the inappropriate occasion, he finally decided to remain silent.
He quietly found an empty seat and sat down, observing the situation around him quietly.
After a while, Li Heming came in from outside. He saw Song Nanyao sitting alone on a chair at a glance, and found that there was no one else beside him, so he ran over without hesitation and chatted with Song Nanyao about martial arts.
When the two cousins saw Li Youran going to help in the new house, they took the initiative to go to the kitchen to help Ye.
After a long while, Village Chief Li hurried over. When he heard that County Magistrate Sun had arrived, he kowtowed before him.
Father Li also hurried out to invite Old Man Li and Old Lady Cheng, and brought the two elderly people over.
On the way, Old Man Li heard from Li's father that County Magistrate Sun had come to their Lijia Village, and had come to his third son's house for a drink. He was so excited that he almost tripped.
He secretly sighed in his heart that his granddaughter was so capable.
"I'm going to pay my respects to the great judge!" Old man Li said as he quickened his pace and walked quickly in front.
Finally, he arrived in front of County Magistrate Sun. Without saying a word, Old Man Li kowtowed firmly.
When County Magistrate Sun learned that the two elderly people were Li Youran’s grandparents, he quickly stood up and helped the two elderly people up personally.
Old man Li was so excited that tears were about to fall from his eyes. This was the first time he met the county magistrate in his life!
Old Mrs. Cheng was not in much better condition. She stood up tremblingly, with a layer of fine beads of sweat already appearing on her head.
After all the villagers were seated, the Ye family began to busy themselves with serving the dishes.
One after another, the delicious dishes were placed on the table, the aroma was so fragrant that it made people salivate.
Just looking at the colors of these dishes makes one feel that they must be delicious.
There was a large table for Ye's family, but Ye Wenzhi and Du were invited to sit at the same table with County Magistrate Sun. They were flattered. Village Chief Li was also invited.
Old Man Li and Old Lady Cheng were also invited to sit at the same table with County Magistrate Sun. When the four elderly people saw that they were relatives, they shook hands and hugged each other.
Magistrate Sun looked at the scene before him, and a warm feeling welled up in his heart. He was very pleased to see that the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, and their lives were full of vitality.
All this made him feel that his efforts and contributions as a parent official were rewarded.
Some villagers boldly walked up to County Magistrate Sun and respectfully offered him a glass of wine to express their gratitude.
Magistrate Sun took the wine glass with a smile and drank it all. Seeing this, other villagers lined up to toast Magistrate Sun to express their respect and gratitude.
County Magistrate Sun was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling. He interacted with the villagers and made the atmosphere lively.
As time went by, Magistrate Sun gradually got drunk, but he was in a good mood and enjoyed this wonderful moment.
Finally, he could no longer bear any more alcohol and had to be carried back to the yamen by the guards.
At the same time, the three wealthy men were no exception. They were also drunk and were finally carried back home by their servants.
However, Li Youran did not join the banquet at the table.
It wasn't because there were no seats, but because she didn't like such noisy occasions, especially among strangers.
She prefers a quiet environment unless she is with her family.
Song Nanyao had been accompanying Li Youran, standing at the door of the old house. He asked with concern: "Xiao Ran, what's wrong? Did you encounter any troubles?"
Li Youran shook her head and replied, "No, I'm just not used to this kind of scene." In fact, she really didn't have any worries, she just wasn't used to this lively atmosphere.
She squatted down, picked up a small stone, and drew circles on the ground casually.
After lunch, the women in the village naturally began to clean up the dishes on the table, and the men took the initiative to help move the tables and chairs back to their respective homes.
Father Li looked at the scene in front of him and couldn't help but feel moved.
Every family presented a gift, some brought a basket of eggs, some brought a fat old hen, and Li Yuanbo recorded all the various gifts one by one.
At this time, a young woman accidentally caught a glimpse of Li Yuanbo's handsome face, and she couldn't help but cast a charming look at him. This woman was Li Feipeng's wife in the village, Qiao Rouer.
"Sir, are you free today?" Qiao Rouer asked softly when no one was paying attention.
However, Li Yuanbo did not respond to her. He knew that he was still a teenager and would not ruin his future by being seduced by a girl.
Seeing that Li Yuanbo ignored her, Qiao Rouer just glanced at her indifferently and turned away.
