Chapter 732: Preparing for Action
The Christmas Eve dinner ended smoothly, hundreds of people were in the cafeteria, and no one chose to leave.
Although it was not too cold, someone brought a brazier.
Think of a family reunion at home for a sumptuous dinner. Then sit around the roaring fire, play the piano and sing, and talk about the joy of family. What could be better than that?
"A man must be faithful, and fire must be hollow. Chongqing took two pieces of charcoal and put them in the brazier, and then put the tongs on the brazier, "Which of you wants to eat glutinous rice cakes?"
There is a small iron pot next to the charcoal fire, which contains water and acts as a fire extinguishing gas. In fact, no one knows if it's useful, but it's just a habit to put one. Akagi sat next to her, she peeled a citrus and stuffed the peel into a small tin can: "I want one." ”
Chongqing glanced at Chicheng lightly, and thought, Chicheng, everyone is an enemy, okay, do you have any self-consciousness. Come to think of it, she's actually used to it. It's like everyone is usually in the kitchen.,Except for little Lori,Japanese don't usually come in.,Only Akagi joins in the fun.。 So he took out two glutinous rice cakes and placed them on top of the fire tongs that had been erected.
Ning Hai and Pinghai sat together, and she said, "I want to roast sweet potatoes." ”
"I'm going to bake potatoes. The person who spoke was Changchun, she was lying in Yixian's arms, and potatoes were her favorite.
Everyone is a ship, not a battleship. Although this is well understood, Kaga has always been resistant to the mistakes made by the aircraft carrier Kaga. At this time, she held a small plate, drank a small wine, and watched Akagi and the fishery boats sit happily together, thinking that the history of the past is nothing at all, and now everyone is sisters. Live in the same town and have the same admiral. So, do you want to find any excuse to go over and warm the wine and say a few words?
Princeton is performing a magic trick, taking out a rabbit from his magic hat, a pigeon, and then a cane to share the little Lori from the onlookers.
"Wow!" The expression was the fullest, not the most exaggerated, Arashi covered her mouth with her hands, and looked surprised.
Cushing wasn't much better, she took the crutches and bounced around.
Nevada was holding a deck of poker and dealing a card to everyone in front of him. At a rare time of joy, Washington did not educate her with an ax not to gamble in the town guard's mansion.
"Do you want to?" said Nevada, "and remind you, if you don't do it at six o'clock, you will starve to death." ”
Colorado waved his hand.
Maryland cautiously glanced at her own cards, which seemed to be a little small, and she knocked on the table: "Yes." ”
Nevada flies down a card, eight.
His shoulders slumped down in an instant, and Maryland flipped his cards, adding up to thirteen points for the two cards: "Burst." ”
Santiago watched from the sidelines, and she asked, "What are you guys playing?"
"Half past ten. Nevada said, "Would you like to play it?"
After a while, Santiago's tail wagged, and she timidly asked, "Does this count as five small?"
There was no activity, Su Gu and everyone sat at a table and chatted.
Lexington asked, "Admiral, how does the turkey I made taste like?"
I've been in charge of everyone's dinner before. Since coming to the Zhenshou Mansion, as more and more people have come, especially the superb chef Xianghe, as well as the supreme chef, the beautiful chef, and the great enemy Yixian have returned to the Zhenshou Mansion, she has only entered the kitchen once. The only time I did it, for my sister or for the Admiral, I made a supper...... At the beginning, in order to train CV-16 to become an excellent wife, not only teaching housekeeping, but also cooking skills were essential, and she went into the kitchen more often during that time.
Although it looks good and shiny, however, when eaten in the mouth, the turkey meat is a bit chai and not so delicious. However, Su Gu knew very well that Lexington wanted to be complimented, and he said, "Very good. ”
"But when I ate it, I didn't feel good at all. "It's not that easy to deal with, Lexington blinked. But this is the truth again, and it feels completely inferior to the dishes that Yatsen usually prepares. If you want to capture a man's heart, you must first grab a man's stomach, and I feel that this point cannot be completed. It's not that our army is incompetent, it's that the enemy is too cunning.
Su Gu was not panicked at all, he said: "It is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, and turkey meat is originally this taste. I just wanted to say that your cooking has improved. ”
Lexington pursed his lips and smiled, "Really good at talking." ”
It is rare that Richelieu also wears a Christmas dress, with a Santa hat on his head and a headband with reindeer antlers, which is sexy. She looked at the fantasy running around: "Before I returned to the town guard's mansion, I used to like to dress up as a reindeer, pull a sleigh, and pull Walkland. Originally, Sukuv was playing with her, and she ran blindly with a fantasy, but she turned a corner, and the sleigh was too late, and once she hit a tree, and then she never played again. ”
Richelieu smiled again: "Joan of Arc wears a knight's outfit and looks serious and rigid. She usually wears an apron and her hair is braided...... Admiral, you said that people are like village girls. Hehe, she actually likes skiing. ”
Su Gu looked longing: "I've never seen a heavy snowfall, and I can't even think about skiing." I remember one time, when I was a child, I was seven, eight or nine years old, and I was still in elementary school anyway. Just one time, that year, it snowed a little. It's not goose feather snow, it's rice snow. Then my brother and I wasted a lot of energy, filled a basin of snow with a basin, and built a snowman. ”
Su Gu continued: "In winter, it is most comfortable to stay at home, and sleep lazily every day. In order to see the snow, I went to the north specifically, so forget it. Speaking of which, in our place, the spring is wet, the walls and the floor are full of water, and the clothes are not dry. Hot in the summer and cold in the winter. I still like autumn, lukewarm, an autumn coat during the day, and a quilt at night, comfortable. It happened to be October, and a street was full of osmanthus fragrance. ”
The Prince of Wales said: "It seems that there has never been Christmas before. ”
Thinking that you would not be able to take care of children at all, Su Gu said, "You are embarrassed to say." ”
……
Christmas Eve is the same thing, do small games, chat, and it passes quickly.
Little Lori has long been asleep, although there are also a few people who are unwilling to sleep, such as Mahan and Utopia. Helena said this, and the Prince of Wales coughed lightly, and they immediately went back to their rooms.
After midnight, many adults also went to sleep. Like the Royal Oak, which was already drowsy, but didn't want to leave alone, I'm afraid it's already asleep.
There are still sporadic lights in the dormitory building, and this is the warehouse, but the lights are still on.
It's not that Leipzig is here, but I saw a lot of gifts on the ground, big and small, like a courier store, and many people were inside, Lexington, prestige, Su Gu......
Instead of going to bed so early, Saratoga looked at the gifts on the floor, and the labels with their names on them. After all, there are many people in the town guard mansion and many gifts, so it would be embarrassing to give the wrong gift. Looking at it, she didn't see the gift with her name written on it, and asked Su Gu, who was holding the gifts one by one and putting them in the big pocket, and asked, "Brother-in-law, what gift are you going to give me?"
Of course, you can't turn on the lights when giving gifts, and even if you have a flashlight, it's still inconvenient to find a gift in a big pocket. Try to remember who the different gifts belong to, the size, shape, and wrapping paper. I had just filled a pocket, and inside it were gifts from the submarine, the Fletcher-class family, Xiao Xiang Thunderbolt, and others. Hearing Saratoga's words, Su Gu didn't raise his head and said, "You really want to know?"
What do you hate the most? It's nothing more than spoilers. If you know what the gift is beforehand, it won't be interesting to open it, and there will be no surprises at all, Saratoga said: "Forget it." ”
After thinking about it, Saratoga asked, "Brother-in-law, what gift did you prepare for them?"
"Who are you asking?" said Su Gu.
"Those little ones. ”
"I just bought some casually. "After all, no matter who it is, adults or little Lori, everyone's gifts are carefully chosen. For this, I asked a lot of people what they liked. What does Quincy like, ask New Orleans. What does Xiaoxiang Thunderbolt like, ask Tianlong and Longtian...... Still, everyone's meaning is just for reference.
Saratoga said with a smile: "Brother-in-law, you won't buy scarves for fireflies again, she already has a lot." ”
"I'm not that stupid. Su Gu smiled dryly, remembering that there had been this situation before, because fireflies like to wear scarves around them, and every time they sent scarves to her, they were complained about fiercely. After all this time, I finally know that I can't just think about what the other person likes, but also what the other person needs.
Gently picking up a gift with a label that says Black-backed Jackal, Saratoga asked, "What did you give Black-backed Jackal?"
Su Gu said, "Gloves." ”
"Why?"
"I feel like she needs it more. ”
"Rafite?"
Su Gu thought for a while, and he said, "A bat." ”
"She doesn't play bats. Saratoga said he thought there were no baseball stadiums in the town, and there were no football fields.
"She can hit people with a bat. Su Gu said, "I've asked me many times before, but I didn't buy it for her." ”
This group of little loli is already difficult to educate, Helena is angry and says, "Do you want her to beat people everywhere with a bat?"
Su Gu said: "She knows how to be measured, otherwise there are too many things in the town guard mansion that can be used to beat people." ”
Saratoga asked, "Where's the otaku?"
"Pillow, Bismarck's pillow. ”
Even though she has only been a member for a year, Missouri is considered a big name in everyone's mouth, and she has been featured in many decisions of the Town Guard. At this time, she would certainly not have gone to bed so early, and she said, "Bismarck's pillow, did you really buy a small house?
I thought it was just talking, but I didn't expect Missouri to really change into Christmas clothes. Her figure is already proud, and her face is even more pretty, charming, and exquisite, so she must be a very qualified juice squeeze. Su Gu glanced at Missouri, retracted his gaze, and said, "Bismarck is a real person, I hug it every day, but Bismarck's pillow is rare in a small house." ”
Although the North House went to sleep, Bismarck did not sleep. She stood aside, looking out the window at the pitch black, and said nothing. I thought to myself, my own admiral is really open-mouthed.
Filled with curiosity, Saratoga crouched on the ground and picked up another Christmas present, and she asked, "What did you give Siggsby?"
"Bracelets. Su Gu said. Thatcher is a little fool, Sullivan is the most well-behaved, Siggsby is a little goblin, she is not an ordinary little Lori. Unlike Ugolini, who is just a lust, Siggs knows how to dress up at a young age, and usually reads fashion magazines when he has nothing to do.
Missouri said, "Sue someone, you don't really have an idea of Sigsby, do you?" What does it mean to give a bracelet? I want to tie you up for the rest of my life. ”
Su Gu didn't explain: "Do I still need to tie up?" I am the Admiral, as the ship's mother, Sigbis will never leave me." ”
Missouri was speechless for a moment, it was really like that.
Everyone was helping, and Saratoga was completely joining in the fun: "What's this oversized gift?"
"The stuff inside was small. Su Gu laughed, "It just looks big, and it's specially prepared for York City." ”
"You really like her. ”
"It's fine. ”
Finally no longer asked, Saratoga walked down the hallway, she looked at the dorm building, and there were still a few windows with lights on: "Some people haven't slept yet, how do you give gifts?"
Su Gu said: "Then wait a little longer, otherwise it will be delivered tomorrow." ”
"Will you go to your room?"
It had already made people angry, Su Gu said: "I didn't want to go, but some people said to go, so everyone just gave gifts like this." ”
Saratoga reminded: "Don't be crooked. ”
"I don't want to die. Su Gu said.
"Hmph. Saratoga didn't believe it.
Although I know that there is no Santa Claus in this world, the gifts are all sent by the Admiral. A group of little Lori hung Christmas stockings in their rooms early, and even put away milk and biscuits, reminding them to remember.
It's not a child, and adults don't pay so much attention to formalism, but some people still look forward to it. It's like a wedding ship, without saying anything, looking forward to the surprise of the Admiral, and you can see a gift the next day. Like Raiders, Wichita, South Dakota, and others, they want you to go to their room. I can't even help it, I have to do something, I definitely won't resist, but cater to ...... This is still up for debate. Even if it was Zeppelin, the Colossus, Hindenburg and so on, if it was to give gifts, the admiral, who was destined to be together for the rest of his life, ran into his room, as long as he didn't move his hands and feet, he wouldn't say anything.
I finally waited until the lights in the dormitory building were all turned off, and it looked like I could move. The gifts were all put into the big pockets, and everything was packed. Originally, everyone changed into Christmas clothes, and as a commander, of course, it was no exception. But it wasn't until now that Su Gu put on a big beard and became like Santa Claus.
Su Gu carried his big pocket, and Saratoga circled around him, pinching his chin: "Seriously, brother-in-law, you look so stupid." ”
"It should be fine. Su Gu took two steps, wanting to see his image, but unfortunately there was no mirror.
Saratoga sneered, "Still stupid." ”
"Silly is stupid. Su Gu said.
