Chapter 652: I have a backbone!
Hua Duxiu talked and laughed, and the little face was satisfied, and the carriage staggered to its destination half an hour later.
After a report, the two were quickly released into the governor's palace.
Su Xiaoxiao followed behind Hua Duxiu, and said a little nervously: "Childe, you come to find Miss Peng and Miss Ding, Xiaoxiao follows...... Wouldn't it be inconvenient?"
Hua Duxiu smiled: "What's inconvenient about this, just remember to observe more and talk less."
Today, I'm afraid that the two of them haven't given me a good face, and they will inevitably have to hurt their brains again. β
"Childe is so hard......"
"Alas, knowing that I sin against me, it is only spring and autumn......"
Su Xiaoxiao tilted her head, indicating that she didn't understand.
When I came to the outside of Peng Yaoyao's small courtyard, I heard the sound of giggling and laughing from inside, and I didn't need to listen carefully to know that it was the voice of Yaoyao and Qiqi.
"Oh my God...... Hua Duxiu sighed, "I don't think anything is wrong with me?" β
Su Xiaoxiao wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, and then thought that she would pretend to be a son in the future, and she didn't know what problems she would encounter, and she couldn't help but get nervous again.
Hua Duxiu quietly opened the courtyard door and said in a low voice: "Ahem, ahem!"
No one paid any attention to him.
Hua Duxiu had no choice but to push the door on her own.
In the courtyard, Peng Yaoyao and Ding Qiqi were tinkering with a charcoal stove, with a lot of dry firewood scattered on the ground, and a small table next to them, on which were many skewers of raw meat, as well as bottles and jars containing various spices.
A few skewers were apparently cooked, lying on a large porcelain plate bubbling with aroma.
"Yo, what about the barbecue? It's better to come early than to come at a good time. β
Hua Duxiu walked to the table and coughed heavily.
But no one paid any attention to him.
Ding Qiqi was busy controlling the temperature of the flame, Peng Yaoyao was brushing the meat skewers with oil and ingredients, and the two were laughing and laughing and joking with each other while busy, not to mention how happy they were.
Hua Duxiu sighed, ignoring me and pulling me down, I just stood here and didn't believe that you couldn't see me all the time.
The tangy aroma penetrated into her nostrils, and Hua Duxiu couldn't help but reach out and touch the table.
On the rosewood square table, there are several skewers of cooked meat on a porcelain plate.
When he was about to succeed, Ding Qiqi, who was on fire on the side, quickly snatched it, gave Peng Yaoyao two strings, glanced back at Su Xiaoxiao, and said "surprised":
"Oh, little you're here, come on, come on, try our craft!"
Su Xiaoxiao looked at Hua Duxiu with a hesitant face, Hua Duxiu's old face was dark, and he nodded indignantly.
Xiaoxiao was relieved and quickly took the meat skewers handed by Ding Qiqi.
She wanted to divide a few skewers for her son to eat, but before she could hand it out, she was pulled by Ding Qiqi and squatted on the ground together, chatting around the charcoal stove.
Well, while chatting and eating, it is very suitable.
Gollum......
After a busy morning, Hua Duxiu's stomach was obviously hungry, especially watching the three little fairies eat a lot, smelling the aroma of the nose, his stomach growled uncontrollably.
"Qiqi, Yaoyao, I, I also want to eat ......"
Hua Duxiu took two steps forward, holding his stomach and saying with a bitter face.
"Hee-hee, little one, try this, it's chicken. β
"Oh Qiqi, you put the fire a little smaller, the tendons are going to be baked!"
"Oops, it's really mushy!"
The flames rose, and a few skewers of fine beef tendons were baked into black charcoal.
"It's a pity, it's a pity. β
Ding Qiqi snorted, and put the strings of black charcoal to the back side, which happened to be in the porcelain plate in Hua Duxiu's hand.
"This ......"
Hua Duxiu smiled wryly, this is for me to eat?
Qiqi, are you trying to poison me!
In other words, as a master of the "Venerable" realm, you can't control this little fire?
Hmph, I think you're trying to poison me on purpose.
Hua Duxiu sat down on the grass with a depressed ass, forcibly endured the grunt in her stomach, and stared at Ding Qiqi and the three of them with her eyes squeezed.
Su Xiaoxiao was pulled by Qiqi and Yaoyao every time she secretly looked at Hua Duxiu, and stuffed her with a bunch of delicious food to prevent her from being divided into two parts.
Okay, you girls, you deliberately fix me, right?
Hmph, I've got a temper yet, I'll see what tricks you can play!
Hua Duxiu was stubborn, and sat behind them without speaking or leaving.
Half an hour passed in a flash, and the little bellies of the three girls were bulging, and a maid sent a fruit plate......
"Oh, I can't eat it, it's too supportive!" Qiqi patted his little belly and said with a smile.
Yaoyao glanced at Hua Duxiu without a trace, and hesitated: "We still have so much left, don't waste it, let's bake it all." β
"Can't you eat it when it's baked?
Yaoyao smiled: "Let's bake it out first." β
"Good!"
The three girls were busy all the time, and they baked dozens of skewers and put them on a porcelain plate.
Hua Duxiu: "......"
Hmph, young master, I have backbone!
Ding Qiqi pretended to say: "Oh, what can I do if no one eats it? It's a pity to lose it, or ...... Or I'll eat it all if I top it again!"
Yaoyao hurriedly persuaded: "You've eaten so much, don't hold on!"
"What then, no one eats?"
Peng Yaoyao's face was slightly red, and she secretly glanced at Hua Duxiu again.
"Gollum ......"
Young Master Hua's stomach screamed again, but he was full of backbone, and he said that he didn't say anything to look at this "food that came to him".
Ding Qiqi snorted lightly, and said without replying: "Last time, will anyone eat it!
"I eat, I can't eat!"
Hua Duxiu wailed, and finally couldn't pretend anymore.
"Hmph, do you like to eat or not!"
Ding Qiqi left a cruel word, got up from the grass and pulled Peng Yaoyao and Su Xiaoxiao to the house.
Iniquity......
Hua Duxiu sighed with tears in her eyes, silently picked up the porcelain plate, looked at the dozens of skewers of bubbling meat inside, and couldn't tell what it tasted like.
I tasted it, and oh, it's delicious?
Can the girls have skills?
Hua Duxiu held a plate in one hand and a skewer in the other, and followed Peng Yaoyao and others into the living room.
The three of them chatted lively, but still no one took care of the flowers.
Hua Duxiu didn't care, the wind swept away a plate of barbecue, and went out to bring in a fruit bowl.
Seeing the son's dejection and eating, Su Xiaoxiao couldn't help but feel a little messy.
Childe's temperament is really strange, sometimes he has seen extraordinary sentences and says on key points, and sometimes he speaks whimsically without any righteousness, as if he is eating at this time regardless of his image, which is completely different from his usual suave and gentle manners.
Childe, how can you make me imitate you!
In the blink of an eye like this, the three girls were having fun, Hua Duxiu yawned on the side, and simply squinted and pretended to sleep.
It's actually quite fun to listen to the girls chirping like magpies.
Hua Duxiu doesn't like to participate in the excitement, but likes to watch the excitement.
It's not the kind of bystander who "doesn't think it's a big deal to watch the excitement", but the people close to him can talk and laugh carefree, even if he is silently watching from a distance, he also feels very warm and down-to-earth.
"Whew...... Whew......"
Hearing Hua Duxiu's soft snoring, the three girls stuck out their tongues and lowered their voices, not daring to wake him up.
Peng Yaoyao whispered: "Brother Xiu/It's hard to run around day and night, let him sleep for a while." β
Ding Qiqi snorted lightly: "For the sake of his performance just now, I won't trouble him." β
Su Xiaoxiao said cautiously: "Two young ladies, the son is so pitiful, not only do you have to worry about the family's business, but also help the Demon Liufu do things, don't bully him......"
Ding Qiqi pretended to be angry: "It's obvious that he bullied the two of us......"
Twitter, twitter, saying that it was okay not to be noisy, Hua Duxiu was woken up by the three girls again.
After tossing for a long time, the third girl didn't want to keep hanging Hua Duxiu and ignored it, so she allowed him to interject and say a few words.
Soon the sun will set, and the beautiful day will pass again.
Hua Duxiu calculates the time, it's time to do something serious.
The third daughter knew that he still had something to do, but she didn't leave him behind, and let Hua Duxiu leave alone.
cough, even Xiaoxiao has rebelled and won't go with him.
Hua Duxiu first went to Shen Mansion to chat with Shen Lijia about each other's future plans, Shen Lijia had decided to stay in the government army, and Hua Duxiu didn't want him to follow him around anymore, nodding his head and saying good.
"Brother-in-law, what do you think of Lu Ziye?"
Hua Duxiu was stunned: "What's the matter, by the way, you don't say that I can't remember, what about Brother Ziye?"
Shen Lijia shrugged his shoulders and said, "He thought I was too utilitarian and didn't look good, so he moved outside and rented a small courtyard to practice by himself." β
This surprised Hua Duxiu: "You two quarreled?"
"It's not a quarrel, it's just that we get to know each other better after getting along for a long time. β
"What do you mean?"
Shen Lijia thought for a while and said, "I think he thinks a little pedantic, and he thinks I'm too unscrupulous.
Usually it's okay, when it comes to some major issues of right and wrong, we will inevitably pee in a pot, and we will often quarrel or something. β
The three views do not agree?
Hua Duxiu nodded slowly, thoughtfully.
"After all, Brother Ziye has helped me a lot, and he has come all the way from Mobei to join us, so it's not good to hang him like this. β
"Brother-in-law, what do you think?"
"It's the New Year, let's have a lively time.
Just talk to him, I'm going to take Qiqi out of the courtyard after the year, you're going to go to the army for drills, see what he says. β
Shen Lijia smiled: "Didn't you make it clear that you wanted to drive him away." β
"Saying that, if he is willing to stay, it is okay to go to the Hua Clan's Dart Bureau to be a dart master, but what I am going to do is a bit dangerous, but I can't drag Brother Ziye to take risks with me. β
"Well, when are we going to find him?"
"Let's go now, just have a drink together. β
"Yo, brother-in-law, do you want to drink?"
Hua Duxiu laughed: "The main thing is to get drunk Brother Ziye, and if you trap him, this matter will be handed over to you." β
"All right!"
The two took a carriage to find Lu Ziye's temporary residence.
The location here is a little remote, but the surrounding environment is quite quiet, with some low houses on the left and right, mottled ancient trees, and few people entering and exiting.
In fact, with the silver taels given to him by Shen Lijia, it was enough to live in as many high-end inns as he wanted, but Lu Ziye didn't like extravagance and waste, so he just rented a small courtyard in the outer city.
Seeing Lu Ziye, the three of them chatted for a while and came out to find a stall, ordered all kinds of side dishes and ordered a few pots of old wine, and chatted with each other.
Under Shen Lijia's repeated invitations, Lu Ziye really drank too much, and the two quarreled again on some issues at the value level.
Hua Duxiu was upset when she heard this, and interrupted the two of them: "Brother Ziye, after the New Year, Jiajia officially went to serve in the army, do you have any considerations?"
Lu Ziye's broad face was hazy with wine, and he burped and said, "I, I don't have any considerations?"
"Then what are your plans for the future? Do you want to stay in the Trapped Demon Valley?
If you want, with your strength, we can arrange for you to enter the army, if you don't like to be restrained, you can also come to my house to be a dart master. β
Lu Ziye shook his head, and a faint aura appeared in his eyes.
"I have benefited a lot from this trip to the Northern Plateau and Canghaiyue, seeing a lot of the world, and also coming into contact with many big people who I couldn't think of before. β
Hua Duxiu and Shen Lijia glanced at each other and listened carefully to Lu Ziye's words.
It seems that he was not really drunk.
"Jiajia is right, what bullshit is most of the time, it is not as good as fists.
I'm still too weak in this way, so weak that I still fantasize about getting things done by reasoning, which is really naΓ―ve......
In fact, the days of this trip are really not short, and it is time to go back.
There is no such thing as a feast in the world, and I am very grateful that you have taken care of you both for so long. β
He pointed to his heart, and his simple face was full of sincerity.
Shen Lijia was suddenly a little reluctant: "Brother Ziye, what you said makes me feel uncomfortable." β
Lu Ziye shook his head and said with a smile: "It's okay, you should be happy for me."
This experience of more than a year is a great wealth for me, and after the new year, I will return to the master to retreat, and with my current Dao heart, I believe that I will make great improvements in the future. β
Hua Duxiu nodded: "That's naturally a good thing." β
Lu Ziye picked up his wine glass and touched Hua Duxiu and Shen Lijia heavily: "Respect our friendship, long live friendship!"
Hua Duxiu was full of emotion, Shen Lijia sighed, and the three of them raised their glasses together and shouted:
"Long live friendship!"
Under the silent night sky, laughter and clinking glasses were endless.
The cold wind can't blow away the fiery friendship, and the night favors the people who return late.
