Everyone sat down, and Tang Manman deliberately led everyone to chat about improving the canals, obviously trying to exclude Shen Ruoyan by talking about official matters.

Faced with a topic that she was not familiar with, Shen Ruoyan did not take the initiative to interrupt, but sat calmly and listened carefully.

Whenever she heard something interesting, she would nod slightly, as if she had learned something.

The beauty sat quietly aside and listened carefully to their words, which greatly satisfied the vanity of the men present. Each one of them acted more energetically, and deliberately avoided some professional terms when arguing, trying to make things simpler. .

Gradually, Shen Ruoyan found that Tang Xiuyuan, who was sitting next to her, also relaxed and listened carefully to everyone's conversation.

During the chat, while everyone was drinking tea, Shen Ruoyan said to everyone sincerely: "I have benefited a lot from listening to everyone's words today. Having insightful people like you contribute to Yizhou is a great opportunity for Daning." For the good fortune of the people, please let me offer tea instead of wine and give you a toast."

The people present are all young people. They once had talents but had nowhere to use them. They were depressed all day long. Now they have finally been appreciated by Lu Yan. They are grateful for having such an excellent opportunity to showcase their talents.

Now that she was praised like this by Shen Ruoyan, her heart suddenly surged with infinite pride, and she was so full of energy that she wished she could go to work immediately without even eating.

"Cousin, you're welcome."

"That's what we should do."

"It has always been Xiao's life goal to seek benefits for the people of Daning."

In the midst of the polite voices, Tang Manman muttered: "Humph, I have little knowledge."

Her voice was neither loud nor quiet, but it seemed particularly abrupt because it was out of place.

Shen Ruoyan wanted to pretend not to hear, but could not ignore it, so she asked Tang Manman: "Knowing is knowing, not knowing is not knowing, it is knowing.

Miss Tang is so well-informed, she must know everything she says. "

Tang Manman snorted coldly, drank a cup of tea in a short time, and did not want to talk to Shen Ruoyan.

Shen Ruoyan was not embarrassed and continued: "There are thousands of things in this world. You cannot ask others to know what you know. Do you also know what others know?

The boss of the steamed bun shop knows how to steam the steamed buns until they are big and white, so does Miss Tang know the technique?

By the same token, I don't think that I don't understand the art of canal development, but that I have little knowledge. "

What Shen Ruoyan said was neither condescending nor arrogant, and was very convincing.

The two young people present couldn't help but yelled "Hello" for her!

Tang Manman's face suddenly became embarrassed, and when he was about to retort, someone on the side stopped him and tried to smooth things over.

Just at this time, all the dishes ordered were served, and everyone naturally talked elsewhere, forcing the conflict to end.

Smelling the aroma of the food, Tang Xiuyuan, who had been pretending to be an ostrich, raised his head slightly. His long eyelashes stared at the plate of braised pork in front of him and then trembled, reflecting a row of small fan-like shadows. He was obviously very interested in the plate of meat. interested.

With the experience from last time, Shen Ruoyan asked before Tang Xiuyuan moved his chopsticks: "Ayuan, can you count?"

Tang Xiuyuan nodded seriously.

Shen Ruoyan picked up a piece of braised pork for him and put it into the bowl in front of him. She was afraid that he would eat it too quickly like the last time he ate steamed buns, so she warned: "I'll give you one first, remember to chew it fifteen times before you can eat it." Swallow it, do you understand?"

"One, Er, Shan..." Tang Xiuyuan was very obedient, chewing and counting at the same time. He took a long time to finish the whole piece of braised pork with a silly and naive attitude.

After swallowing the braised pork, Tang Xiuyuan showed Shen Ruoyan a flattering smile, as if to say: Sister, I chewed it fifteen times. Do you think I am good or not?

She was obviously taller than herself, but she showed such a pure smile. Shen Ruoyan was so amused by the contrast between Tang Xiuyuan and Tang Xiuyuan that she felt so soft. She raised her hand and gave him a piece of braised pork, and said with a smile: "I'll reward you again." Eat a piece, and remember to chew it fifteen times."

"Yes!" Tang Xiuyuan was extremely well-behaved.

When people on the side saw it, they couldn't help but praise: "Cousin, you are so gentle."

"Yes, my cousin will definitely be a good wife and mother in the future."

"Hmph, women can only do such inconspicuous things in the house."

The last sentence obviously came from Tang Manman's mouth,

Shen Ruoyan suddenly chuckled, raised her head, looked directly at Tang Manman, and asked, "Miss Tang, I imagine it must be very hard for your father to come here, right?"

Faced with this confusing question, Tang Manman realized for a moment that he didn't understand what Shen Ruoyan meant.

Shen Ruoyan never thought she would answer, so she continued: "Your father gave birth to you, raised you, took care of your daily life, and went out to make money for your expenses, so it must be very hard. Bar?"

"What exactly do you want to say?" Tang Manman seemed to have come to his senses and asked angrily.

"Miss Tang, is it your father who risked his life to give birth to you?

Isn't it women who wash and cook for you and raise you up?

You are a woman yourself, why do you always belittle women everywhere?

Have you ever thought that you are able to wear clean clothes and live in a tidy house. Who is responsible for these?

Who does the trivial things like spinning and weaving, cleaning and cooking? "

"I..." Tang Manman was at a loss for words by Shen Ruoyan's series of questions, and could only say stiffly, "You said it yourself, these are all trivial matters, how can they be compared with the major people's livelihood issues we just talked about?"

Shen Ruoyan seemed to be waiting for her words. Tang Manman's accusations against her yesterday were still vivid in her mind. Shen Ruoyan felt that she had not performed well at that time. When she thought about it at night, she felt extremely upset. She had already thought of a set of words. .

“Between weather and everything, there is yin and yang.

We enjoy the vitality of the day, but we also need the tranquility of the night. If we don’t get adequate rest at night, how can we fight better the next day?

Day and night, water and fire, sky and earth, summer and winter snow, men and women, these are all interdependent. No one can exist independently of the other. There is no one who is taller or the other. Whoever is lighter will be heavier.

No matter how knowledgeable a person is, he must eat and drink enough before he can do big things. So I don't think small things like washing and cooking for others are worthless. "

"That's great!" a man couldn't help but say.

"Yes, my cousin's words really enlightened me. I admire you so much!" Another person wanted to cheer.
