Chapter Twenty-Five: A Simple Engagement
At this time, Old Man Li came in with a pot of things, but he smelled fragrant, and he didn't know what it was! After coming in, he smiled and said: "You two boys, if you have wine, you don't call me an old man to drink, if I don't come to give this stewed hare, I can't know that you are secretly drinking here, haha!" ”
"Oh, Old Man Li, aren't we afraid that you will be busy, so we didn't dare to alarm you, saying that we had a good drink together at night!" Lin Feng hurriedly responded with a smile. Then Xiao Hao hurriedly gave up his position to Mr. Li, and said by the way: "I'll go get you a pair of bowls and chopsticks!" Then he ran out.
After sitting down, Old Man Li asked with a smile, "Xiao Feng, how do you feel?" I only caught this hare at noon, and then I came back and asked someone to stew it for you, eat more and make up for it! ”
Lin Feng nodded and smiled: "Thank you, Old Man Li, in fact, you don't have to be so troublesome, hehe." By the way, I want to ask you the old thing, it's the 'demon grass' this morning, can you help me get more? Then Lin Feng pointed to a few leaves left on the ground and said, "This is too little, it's not enough!" ”
Old Man Li looked at the 'demon grass' on the ground and said, "Well, I know it's not enough, I've already told you, and if you encounter it on the road, you will pick it and bring it back!" At this time, Xiao Hao also came in with dishes and chopsticks, and he was still holding a small stone in one hand, which seemed to be used as a stool.
After filling all the wine, Lin Feng picked up the bowl and said to Old Man Li: "Old Man Li, come, I respect you for this bowl, and the matter of 'Demon Grass' will bother you more!" After speaking, Lin Feng drank all the wine in the bowl.
Old Man Li and Xiao Hao also drank, and then chatted about the past two days. Lin Feng felt that something was wrong, this old man Li would not be idle and had nothing to do to come to him to drink and chat, he must have something important to tell him, but Xiao Hao was here, he was not easy to speak.
Just thinking about finding some reason to break Xiao Hao away, Xiao Zhou ran in with a basket on his back sweating profusely at this time, and when he saw their face, he was stunned for a moment, and then scolded with a smile: "I'm almost tired from running up and down, it's better for you to drink and chat here!" After speaking, he threw the basket aside, picked up Lin Feng's bowl and drank the wine in one sip, then poured it and drank two more bowls in a row, and then pointed to the basket and said: "Boss, this is the 'demon grass' that Old Man Li ordered us to bring to you, I won't talk to you about anything else, and the last two batches of food, I'll go and finish that one first!" After saying that, he ran out again!
Lin Feng glanced at the basket thrown on the ground, pointed to Xiao Hao and said, "Xiao Hao, don't drink it yet, and then drink it again at night!" Go do something for me first! The 'demon grass' over there, you find two people, you separate and dry those 'demon grass', smoke and dry them, you know? I'm going to use it at night! ”
Mao Hao nodded and said, "Well, I know, then I'll go first!" After speaking, he drank the last bowl of wine, got up and said, "Big brother, Old Man Li, you two continue to drink, I'll go and get busy first!" Then he turned around and went out with the basket, and brought the door to us by the way. Looks like this kid has seen something, too!
After Lin Feng watched Xiao Hao go out, he poured a bowl of wine and asked Old Man Li, "Old Man Li, is there something wrong with me?" Now that there's no one, just say what's wrong! After speaking, Lin Feng took another piece of hare meat and chewed it.
Old Man Li put down the bowl and asked with a serious face: "Xiaofeng, if I ask you something, you have to answer me truthfully!" ”
Lin Feng was stunned for a moment, but recovered in an instant, and nodded: "Please speak!" ”
"What do you think is our daughter, Xiaoyun?" Old Man Li looked at Lin Feng and asked.
"Ahem," Lin Feng was choked by this sudden question, and quickly took a large sip of wine to smooth his throat, and then looked at Old Man Li incredulously and asked, "You, what do you mean by this?" ”
"Oh? What's the point of that? Don't you understand what that means? Old Man Li's eyes suddenly became extremely sharp, and he stared at Lin Feng motionlessly.
"I, I, that," Lin Feng was very uncomfortable stared at by these eyes, and then gritted his teeth, let go, and said: "Xiaoyun is very good, she is also beautiful, and she is also very sensible, very good, very good!" As he spoke, Lin Feng didn't know what to say.
"Haha, good, good, I was right!" Old Man Li suddenly laughed, and then said: "Xiao Feng, Xiaojun is my daughter, I watched her grow up, I know exactly what she thinks!" You see that it is also a troubled time now, and you also think that Xiaojun is very good, then I will be the master of her, and I will marry her to you, and this family business is so decided! Come on, drink one! ”
Lin Feng was a little confused when he heard it, but he picked up the bowl and drank all the wine, and then he reacted and hurriedly said, "Old man Li, this, isn't this a bit too much... ”
"Huh? Too what? Or do you kid not look down on our family Xiaojun at all? Old Man Li's eyes suddenly became extremely sharp again, and Lin Feng was stared at uncomfortably!
"No, no, I didn't mean that, hey! Don't talk about it, drink first! Lin Feng hurriedly waved his hand and explained. The more I talk about it, the more chaotic it becomes, don't talk about it!
The two of them didn't end until they drank the two jars of wine, and Old Man Li was a little shaky when he walked, but before going out, he still waved his hand at Lin Feng and said, "Okay, you have a good rest, then the matter is settled, I will ask Xiaojun to come over and ask you to eat together in the evening!" After speaking, he left without waiting for Lin Feng to reply.
Lin Feng sat on the bed and still didn't react, could it be that getting married in ancient times was so simple? Just a word to her dad when she's happy? Yes, this old guy must have drunk too much to amuse himself! But to be honest, Xiaojun is really good!
But as soon as Lin Feng thought of the two momentary looks in this old guy's eyes, he always felt that Old Man Li was an extraordinary person! Ordinary people don't have such sharp eyes, even perennial hunters can't have them! Because that kind of look will only appear on the strong, even if it is not an emperor, it will be a prince!
But from the usual point of view, Old Man Li does not have any aura that a strong man should have, just like ordinary people or hunters, he is just a simple villager, and the adjectives of kindness and approachability are the most appropriate expressions!
Ay! No matter what, let's take care of the leg injury first! When you're full, you have to sleep well and absorb nutrients well! In addition, I have to think about the things of the next night, in addition to Xiao Hao as the head of the military training, there are a few other things to discuss with everyone! Let's take a break!
When it was approaching the evening, it was Mao Hao who woke Lin Feng up: "Brother Feng, the 'demon grass' you asked me to get has been made for you according to what you said, I have already brought it over and put it on the table, is there anything else?" ”
Lin Feng rubbed his head that was a little sore, dragged his injured leg and half leaned on the bed, glanced at the pile of tobacco brought by Xiao Hao, and said with satisfaction: "Okay, it's good!" Go and get a knife, and you will cut these into shreds, and cut them right here. Also, don't call this 'demon grass' in the future, this thing is called tobacco, you know? Rolling it up and sucking like I did can be refreshing, and the tobacco shreds applied to the wound can also play a role in anesthetizing the wound and relieving the pain of the wound! By the way, call Xiaojun, I don't think you can use a kitchen knife either! ”
Xiao Hao smiled awkwardly on the side and said, "Got it, I'll go now!" With that, he turned and walked out of the house.
