Chapter 67: The Emperor's List Is Here
"Let's move our chopsticks." The dishes were served one by one, and Chen Lao began to beckon them to eat, and his eyes deliberately stayed in front of the wine daddy, he was a little curious, what will this wine daddy do later?
Although he had been chatting with Ah Xiu just now, his attention had not been withdrawn from the wine father, and he always felt that the wine father was not so simple.
Unfortunately, he observed for a long time, and only saw his back rising and falling, and there was nothing unusual at all.
It's rude to fall asleep like this in someone else's house, but who calls someone a drunkard!
"This ......" Chen Lao picked up the wine glass, wanted to say something, and then toasted Daddy with a glass of wine.
Although he knows that others call him Daddy, he doesn't always call him that. He still didn't know what the surname of the Daoist family was, and suddenly a sentence choked in his throat.
"Everyone calls Wine Daddy, Chen Lao, you can call it whatever you want!" Ah Xiu saw that his father woke up with difficulty, but unfortunately his eyes were on the wine, so he didn't pay attention to Chen Lao at all, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
But speaking of which, she really doesn't know what her surname should be, she has always been called Ah Xiu, but it can't really be the surname "A", and her own father has never said it.
"Brother Liquor ......," Chen Lao said with some difficulty.
As soon as Ah Xiu heard this title, he sprayed directly, although his father was full of beard, but it should be more than enough to be the son of Chen Lao, how could this Chen Lao be so ruthless to use such a title.
In fact, Chen Lao is also very entangled in his heart, on the one hand, he is respectful. It's not good to call it too casually, after all, he is Ah Xiu's father, but on the other hand, this wine daddy's entire face is hidden under his beard, and he can't see his appearance at all.
He knew that Ah Xiu's age was definitely more than enough for his granddaughter, but looking at the appearance of this wine father, he was definitely old when he was a son.
Maybe people just came late to get a girl......
"Old Chen, you can call it whatever you want, my father doesn't mind these false names." Ah Xiu hurriedly said. She was afraid to hear that strange name again.
And her dad doesn't just care about fame. He's a guy who doesn't even care about his real name!
"Then I'll do it first." Chen Lao didn't want to bother with the title anymore, so he directly drank a glass of wine in one go, which could be regarded as an expression of respect.
Although this "lovesickness" is strong, this cup is very small. A glass is just a sip. Chen Lao still has such a small amount of alcohol.
Daddy Wine rarely glanced at Old Chen with his eyes open. It's just that his eyes seem to be covered with a veil, and people can't see through it.
Old Chen only felt that he was looking at him like this, and his whole body was a little uncomfortable. But I was a little more determined in my heart, this man is not simple.
"Wine ...... Kindness...... Not bad. After the wine father finished these words slowly, he drank the whole jar of wine in one gulp under the stunned gaze of the big guy.
There is no panting in the center.
"Bang!" But in a breath, the wine daddy poured on the dinner table.
Ah Xiu and the three of them all looked at the wine daddy a little stunned, this wine is too fast!
Chen Lao was distressed but couldn't show it, and glared at him secretly, he had hidden this wine for three years and was not willing to drink it.
It's good now, it's all in his stomach.
"He's okay with that, is he?" Chen Lao hid his distress before he asked with concern.
This "lovesickness" has a lot of stamina, and he doubts that he will burn his brain if he drinks a jar in one go.
It's not that there are no such cases, children are ignorant, steal the wine at home, and directly burn their heads.
If that were the case, then he would have been guilty of greatness.
"It's okay, he's like this every day anyway, let's eat!" Ah Xiu glanced at the wine father, saw that he was breathing smoothly, and he was asleep at a glance, so he didn't plan to care about him.
"Then why don't I find someone to move him into the house first?" Chen Lao was still a little worried.
"It's okay, it's okay, it's just lying on your stomach, and I'll take him back after a good meal." Ah Xiu didn't care, anyway, it wasn't once or twice, in the past, when he was at his own house, he often slept in the middle of eating.
Chen Lao's hand, which was originally going to call someone, suddenly paused in mid-air again, such a father-daughter relationship is inevitably too weird.
"Oh, Old Chen, your chef's skills are so good!"
When Chen Lao looked up again, he saw Ah Xiu gnawing on pig's trotters with a smile on his face.
He couldn't help but glance down at the drunken father who was lying on the table, unconscious.
He doesn't have children of his own, and he rarely gets along with children, but this shouldn't be the case between father and daughter......
"Eat more if you like." Chen Lao's tone was a little stiff, after all, eating on a table with a person lying on his stomach was also a rare experience.
"Eun." Ah Xiu didn't have anything in his mouth and it was inconvenient to talk more, so he just nodded vigorously and tried to eat.
She dared to pack the ticket, this cook must have been specially invited by Chen Lao, this cooking, delicious Ah Xiu was moved to cry.
The stewed hooves are soft and flavorful, and melt in your mouth.
There are also winter melon pork ribs, which are cut to a thickness and after a period of cooking, they present a wonderful transparent color.
Six dishes and one soup, and the taste of each dish is so just right.
The most amazing thing is a dish of fried fatty meat, of course, such an ugly name is naturally given by Ah Xiu casually.
In addition to the ingredients, the whole dish is fatty meat, but because the fat is soaked in soy sauce, it presents an attractive sauce red, but it has its own transparency.
Ah Xiu is not a picky eater, but as a normal girl, she is somewhat repulsive to fat.
She didn't know that Lu Dao was fat meat at first, but after taking a bite, she was immediately captured by the taste, and ate two more bites in a row, only to know later that Lu Dao was actually fatty meat.
It's unbelievable, and fat meat has such a beautiful time!
If it weren't for Ah Xiu's knowledge of his limited cooking skills, he really wanted to rush directly to the kitchen to ask for the secret recipe for cooking.
She once again strengthened the heart of the medicine to work hard to make money and hire the cook.
Under Chen Lao's somewhat dull gaze, Ah Xiu put the last piece of meat into his mouth, and after swallowing it, he smiled shyly at Chen Lao: "Thank you for your hospitality." ”
Chen Lao suddenly felt that his vision had been refreshed again.
"If you like it, you can eat it again when you have the chance." Old Chen subconsciously said politely.
"Eun, then bother." Ah Xiu nodded directly, not giving Chen Lao a chance to regret it at all.
Although Chen Lao was surprised in his heart, he was not a person who picked the door, and if Ah Xiu came more, the two of them would be able to communicate more about medical skills.
"I'll find someone to take you back." Chen Lao glanced at the wine father, he still had no traces of sobriety.
Although this wine daddy looks thin, he is a big man after all, and two people with thin arms and legs like Ah Xiu and Shen Dongli can't move.
"Then it's troublesome for Old Chen." Shen Dongli breathed a sigh of relief, although he wanted to help, but he was still self-aware, and he knew that he didn't have the strength.
"Daddy?" Ah Xiu poked his father twice on his arm now, and found that he hadn't even changed his breathing, so he knew that he was really drunk this time.
There was a moment of helplessness, but I also had a new understanding of that wine.
You can only watch from a distance, not play with it!
You must know that Lu Dao's own father has drunk wine for so many years, and he has never been drunk like this.
"Listen to bamboo, go prepare the ox cart."
"Yes."
The speed of listening to bamboo is very fast, and the town is small, but with a cup of tea, it will arrive at Ah Xiu's house.
Although Tingzhu is young, he has also learned a little leg and foot kung fu, compared with the weak scholar Shen Dongxuan, he has a lot more strength.
With his help, Daddy Liquor made it to his bed safely.
After thanking Tingzhu, Ah Xiu took a basin of warm water, planning to wipe it for the wine father.
Fortunately, the wine daddy has a good wine, and he just sleeps when he is drunk, and he doesn't have the bad problem of exploding or spitting, which also makes Ah Xiu breathe a sigh of relief.
Rejoicing in preserving what little reputation he had left.
"Huh?" As soon as Ah Xiu untied the wine father's coat, he felt that the clothes were a little strange, and there seemed to be something in the center.
She didn't know that there was such a hidden hidden bag in her father's clothes, and she hadn't found it after washing his clothes for so many years.
Ah Xiu was curious, and seeing that he didn't react at all, he couldn't help but pull out the thing with his hand.
took a closer look, and she found that this thing was very familiar, and it turned out to be an emperor's list.
And according to the above content, Ah Xiu remembers very well that it is the one he saw when he and his father went to the town together, and it was written on the list that the new emperor ascended the throne and reduced taxes.
She remembers the day she bought venison, as well as the delicious donkey meat buns.
It's a pity that the steamed bun shop has changed people now, and the steamed buns don't taste so good. She didn't buy venison again, much to her disappointment.
Of course, none of this matters.
Ah Xiu now feels that what he can't figure out is why his father wants to treasure such an imperial list.
Did he have some strange fetish that he just didn't notice himself?
Ah Xiu thought of the men who liked to collect women's underwear in his previous life, and suddenly trembled, unwilling to think about it anymore.
Afraid of being discovered, although Ah Xiu didn't come up with a reason, he quickly stuffed the emperor back into the hidden pocket.
When she started to work on other things, Ah Xiu had a flash of inspiration, and she suddenly remembered.
When they saw the emperor list that day, their father was still crying.
Although he said at the time that it was the sand that got into her eyes, she always felt that it was not that simple.
After contacting the gossip I heard on the road, it was said that someone had stolen the emperor's list.
Connecting these things, Ah Xiu came to an astonishing conclusion.
Nima, this snake spirit disease that stole the emperor's list can't be his own father! (To be continued......)
