Father Meng removed the wooden planks around the cabin, and the sunlight shone into the cabin, and the black and shiny wood carving placed inside was revealed to everyone. The Eight Sages King walked over briskly and looked at the wood carvings in amazement.

This wood carving weighs four or five hundred pounds, a plum blossom is taller than an adult, and the attractions inside are lifelike and full of meaning.

"Good, good!" The Eight Sages King looked at the wood carving intently, and said a few words in succession.

Lord Gao looked at Meng Xia with a happy face, but Meng Xia was not as excited as he appeared, and nodded at him lightly.

The Eight Sages King circled around the wood carving a few times, watching carefully, and had no intention of stopping. Lord Gao, Meng Xia, Meng's father, and Qin Jiugong also followed the Eight Sages King around the wood carving, echoing a few words from time to time.

Finally, the Eight Sages King stopped, turned to look at Meng Xia, and said, "Little lady of the Meng family, what do you want this king to reward you?" ”

The conditions are as you can mention, and this kind of treatment makes everyone present can't help but get excited.

Meng Xia blessed the Eight Sages King and raised his eyes to look at him seriously, "Don't reward the people's women, there is only one request." ”

What not to reward?

Everyone's eyes widened and they looked at Meng Xia in disbelief, as if they were looking at a big fool.

"Don't want to reward?" The Eight Sages King's eyes flashed with interest, and he walked towards the hall, "Come in and talk!" But I would like to hear what your request is. I don't want the king's reward. ”

Meng Xia, Master Gao and the others followed the Eight Sages King into the hall, and the others listened to the movements in the hall outside.

Wang and Qin Meihua came in with freshly brewed tea, and then withdrew with low eyebrows.

The Eight Sages King took a sip of the tea, then put it aside, looked at Meng Xia, and asked, "Little lady of the Meng family, you can talk about it now." He was really curious about what kind of request Meng Xia would make.

Meng Xia smiled and nodded, "The woman asked to engrave the word [Yashang Pavilion] on the bottom of the wood carving, and a few days ago, the woman asked Master Gao to register the shop of [Yashang Pavilion]. ”

Having said this, not only did the Eight Sages understand her intentions, but the tall man also suddenly came to his senses.

It turned out that she had registered the store name and shop icon with herself a few days ago, just to prepare for today. This is really a good way to engrave her shop name in the birthday gift to the Queen Mother, that is, to open up her popularity.

It's better than any reward.

The Eight Sages King did not speak, but looked at her quietly, and Father Meng's hand was on his knees, motionless, but it also revealed his nervous mood. Father Meng quickly imagined in his mind what might happen next, and the more he thought about it, the more empty his heart became, and his forehead was covered with fine sweat.

He was afraid that the Eight Sages King would be angry, and he was afraid that he would think that Meng Xia was meritorious and demanded too much.

Meng Xia still had a faint smile on his face.

"Hahaha!" The Eight Sages King suddenly laughed, looked at Meng Xia with a smile, and gave her a thumbs up, "Little lady of the Meng family, this king thinks that you were born to be a business material, and your abacus is really shrewd and cost-effective." ”

"The prince has won the prize." Meng Xia smiled.

The Eight Sages King looked at her with admiration in his eyes, "Your request, this king has granted." However, this should have been your credit, you made this king so face-to-face, and could give such a special and exquisite gift to the queen mother, this king wants to reward you with something. Think about it, what more do you want? ”

Meng Xia got up, saluted, looked at the Eight Sages King with a frank face, and said, "Lord Wang, this is enough, thank you Lord for your love." ”

"Do you really want anything?" The Eight Sages King looked at Meng Xia, "After this village, there won't be that shop?" ”

"That's enough." Meng Xia smiled back.

The Eight Sages King nodded with satisfaction and said lightly: "This reward, even if you don't want it, this king must give it." In this way, this king will keep it for you first, and if you want it in the future, you will propose it to this king, and this king will honor it. ”

"Thank you, Lord Wang."

"The king should thank you for this."

Father Meng looked at the scene in front of him, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, and quietly reached out to wipe the fine sweat from his forehead.

"Lord Wang, the Meng family has already nailed a fitting wooden box, dare to ask Lord Wang, should we immediately let people pack and prepare to transport the wood carvings back to the capital, or?" The tall man arched his hand towards the Eight Sages King and whispered for instructions.

The Eight Sages King thought for a moment, looked at Meng Xia, and said, "Little lady of the Meng family, you go and engrave your [Yashang Pavilion] first." Later, the king asked people to pack and start transporting the wood carvings back to the capital. ”

"Yes, lord."

Meng Xia saluted, retreated, and asked Meng Dong and Meng Yang to help him carve words on the bottom of the wood carving.

Father Meng saluted and said: "The prince is here, and it is almost noon now, I wonder if the prince has a coarse tea and light meal in the cold house?" ”

When Qin Jiugong heard this, he also raised his head and looked at the Eight Sages King earnestly.

The tall man was smart and didn't make a sound, because he couldn't see the thoughts of the Eight Sages King clearly, since this is the case, it is better to speak less, save more words and make more mistakes.

"Farmhouse food, it doesn't seem exquisite, but it pays attention to a real word. In this way, the king stayed and tasted the authentic Leting farmhouse cuisine. The Eight Sages King responded without hesitation, and he seemed quite happy.

Lord Gao happily agreed, "The prince is right, the farmhouse dishes are really delicious." ”

"Then the grass people will go out and let the clumsy Jing prepare, please sit down for a while." Father Meng bowed, hurried out of the hall, summoned Wang and Qin Meihua, and asked them to prepare lunch.

Hearing that the Eight Sages King and Master Gao were going to stay for dinner, the Wang family was very nervous. At this time, Qin Jiugong came out and asked the village women who came to Meng's house in the morning to help stay and help make lunch together.

The women gathered around for a while, and then they went home to get the ingredients they had.

After Meng Xia finished carving, he went to the water tank to fetch water and wash his hands, and when he saw that the water in the tank had been used up, he went out of the house with Qin Meihua, who went to the vegetable garden to pick vegetables. She has been staying at home for the past few days to catch up on work, and she has long wanted to go out to breathe.

"Third sister, why don't you ask for a reward?" Qin Meihua was a little puzzled, "The child is about to be born, there are many places to use money, haven't you thought about asking for some silver?" In the future, whether it is a business or a child, this is a good thing. ”

Meng Xia smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, the word [Yashang Pavilion] is engraved with it, if this wood carving can win the eyes of the Queen Mother, it will be countless silver." At that time, the money will come to the door of its own. ”

She has already thought about what business [Yashang Ge] will involve in the future.

Wood carving, house pavilion and gallery design and painting carving.

Hearing this, Qin Meihua's mind lit up, and she finally figured it out.

"Third sister, sister-in-law is short-sighted, don't laugh." Qin Meihua said, a little embarrassed, lowered her head and walked blindly, her face flushed.

"Sister-in-law, can you ......" Before Meng Xia finished speaking, he heard someone shouting angrily: "Stinky boy, don't run!" You come back for me......" Immediately after, she was hit hard in the stomach, and she staggered and fell to the ground.

Belch?

"I... I didn't mean to......" Qin Xiaoan looked at Meng Xia with a panicked expression, his face turned white with fright, and he kept shaking his head. He hasn't gone out since he was blinded by Li Xiaocui's left eye, and now looking at his sunken left eye, it's really terrifying.

Meng Xia stroked her stomach, looking at Qin Xiao'an like this, she wanted to comfort him a few words, but her stomach suddenly cramped, and she was in cold sweat immediately.
