Chapter 314: Military Thorn
The dinner in Chen's Mansion is very rich, with chicken, duck, fish and meat, and it is enough to make people salivate by looking at its color and smelling its taste.
Ying Ying was quite surprised, she knew for the first time that Chen Xu still had this craft, and at the same time, she couldn't see through him more and more.
Since the two got married, Chen Xu seems to have been upgraded from a beggar to a nobleman. Ying Ying has seen beggars and beggars, even if they are given a piece of hard steamed buns, they will gobble it up and want to eat it to become a fat man.
Chen Xu is definitely an exception, even if it is delicacies from the mountains and seas, he will not be able to walk because of greed.
Seeing Chen Xu's cooking skills, she suddenly understood that the big fish and meat at home were really not a delicacy in his eyes; At the same time, she also became more and more puzzled, since Xianggong has this craft, why did he become a beggar again? If you have the chance, you must ask clearly.
Xi'er had already woken up, looking at the strange room and strange people, because she was nervous, her little hands were clenched tightly.
Chen Xu hugged his little daughter who trembled slightly in his arms, and he felt distressed.
"Xi'er, your little belly is growling."
Chen Xu said to his daughter with a smile, he stroked his daughter's little belly as he spoke, he didn't dare to show the slightest sadness on his face, he kept smiling, only a smile could make Xi'er relax.
Xi'er didn't speak, her pitiful eyes looked at Chen Xu and secretly glanced at the buckle meat on the table, and her little tongue secretly licked her lips, pitiful.
In the days of Yixiaolou, Xi'er not to mention eating delicious food, coarse tea and light rice often did not get enough, and Hu Yang once stole a piece of meat for her - a half-fat and half-thin half-finished product boiled in salt water - she thought it was the most delicious thing in the world, and she still remembers it vividly.
Looking at the large pieces of buckled meat on the plate, she felt familiar, and at the same time she was aroused.
Xi'er still didn't speak.
Chen Xu looked at his daughter's expectant gaze, he was sad and happy, and picked up a small piece of button meat with chopsticks.
"Xi'er, call Daddy."
Xi'er refused to scream. She just glanced at Chen Xu's chopsticks with her eyes. Regarding this matter, Chen Xu can't screw his daughter.
Watching Xi'er chew, Chen Xu felt that this was simply the happiest thing in the world; Xi'er glanced at Populus Hu with her eyes, as if she wanted him to taste the delicious food but didn't dare to say it.
Chen Xu sighed, the girl is outgoing.
Look at her daughter, Chen Xu is very entangled in her heart, her daughter doesn't know which bastard will be cheaper in the future, look at Populus euphratica, although she is a little jealous, she is more grateful. Grateful for the one he did for his daughter.
"Populus Hu, I thank you for this glass of wine for Xi'er."
Chen Xu poured himself wine, he raised his glass to Hu Yang and said, and drank it all after speaking.
"Xianggong, you drink less, be careful of getting drunk."
Ying Ying saw Chen Xu pour herself another wine, and she couldn't help but interject.
Chen Xu shook his head, his alcohol consumption is definitely not bad, and he once fought with the eldest and second children. The two of them together couldn't drink him.
Of course, since the defense of the capital, Chen Xu has not been stained with wine, not without conditions. He must always ensure that his mind is clear and calm.
Today, however, he is breaking his vows.
"I'm fine, I'm happy today."
Chen Xu stroked his daughter with pity.
After all, Hu Yang is only a six-year-old child, and Chen Xu's strength has left an indelible impression on him. Such a powerful figure toasted him, and he only felt uneasy.
On the wine table, the glass is changed, and the etiquette is still exchanged, and the poplar knows a little. In a panic, he held up the chicken leg handed to him by Ying Ying to salute Chen Xu, and he looked respectful as if he was going to his grandfather's grave.
Chen Xu laughed, "Master doesn't like to eat chicken legs, you can eat them with an open stomach." After a pause, he looked directly at Hu Yang, "From today on, you can eat whatever you want, only if you are strong enough, you will be able to protect Xi'er in the future." β
Chen Xu said that he doesn't like to eat chicken legs, this is by no means hypocritical, in his mind, as a successful person, he can only eat chicken feet and chicken wings, and only gnaw two bites of chicken neck when he is in a good mood. As he spoke, Chen Xu fished out a chicken claw, and he tore off the meat of the palm of the chicken claw and stuffed it into his daughter's mouth......
Hu Yang almost burst into tears, in his memory, only the noble master is qualified to eat chicken legs, the master not only did not eat it himself but gave it to him, he was simply too good to himself.
Populus euphratica is a child who knows how to be grateful, whoever is good to him, he will be good to whom, from then on, the master is the dearest relative, and he will not hesitate to do so. Populus euphratica is a child, and he may not be able to say such a crepe idiom, but he really thinks so.
Ying Ying looked at Chen Xu's appearance of serving chicken soup to Xi'er and carefully feeding her, especially his meticulous care, she suddenly thought of a crucial issue.
Is Xi'er really his daughter?
If Xi'er is his daughter, then who is Xi'er's mother?
Ying Ying felt very uncomfortable, and she even felt the anger of being deceived.
Chen Xu deceived her feelings, and this deception was punished hundreds of years later by a crime that was put into law - bigamy.
"Xianggong, who is Xi'er's mother? Think for yourself......"
Chen Xu looked at Ying Ying, originally a little strange why Ying Ying was so generous that Cheng DΓΉ was beyond his expectations, but now he realized that she was a little slow to react.
"I don't know."
Ying Ying suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, but Chen Xu didn't say half a sentence.
Where is the child's mother, he is always looking for it.
The discomfort in Yingying's heart disappeared, and she actively gave vegetables to Xianggong, Populus, and Xi'er, and the hostess should be the hostess......
After the meal, Chen Xu asked Baoyu to arrange a room for Hu Yang.
"Hu Yang, sleeping alone at night, are you afraid?"
Populus euphratica had never eaten so much as today, and he even felt that this was heaven, and there was certainly no need to be afraid in heaven.
"Master, I'm not afraid."
Hu Yang said to Chen Xu with his chest puffed out.
Chen Xu nodded with satisfaction, and he instructed Baoyu to prepare bath water for him.
"Master, I... I can do it myself. β
Hu Yang couldn't imagine the life of being served, Sister Baoyu was better looking than the best-looking girls in the yard, how could he let her serve him in turn.
Chen Xu smiled and patted his head, and he instructed again, "Hu Yang, I believe you can do it, but I still have a few requirements, I don't know if you can do it."
"Master, I can!"
"Good! Then you should remember to develop the habit of paying attention to hygiene from now on, wash your hands before eating and after using the toilet, wash your face and feet before going to bed, and bathe regularly. β
Don't say that Hu Yang doesn't understand, Yingying and Baoyu are a little surprised, even if the young masters of big families are not necessarily so particular, what kind of thing is Xianggong (uncle) going to do?
Yingying asked Chen Xuxi where she slept? Hu Yang is already six years old, he can sleep alone, Xi'er is not yet independent.
"Of course my daughter wants to sleep with me."
Chen Xu said as a matter of course.
The child is easier to coax, Chen Xu fed her a meal, and the relationship between the two quickly warmed up, and Xi'er was no longer as vigilant as she was at the beginning.
Yingying: "......"
"Xianggong, you have to study hard."
Before returning to the room, Yingying did not forget to instruct Chen Xu. Chen Xu smiled, how can reading be as important as a daughter? It is more reliable to urge her daughter to study in the future.
Chen Xu bathed his daughter, grabbed the soap corner, he thought of soap, it was his patent, of course his daughter was eligible to enjoy it, and she had to prepare it tomorrow; And toilet paper, it's a shame that the rough toilet paper scratches my daughter's ass, and tomorrow I have to buy the softest rice paper, and it would be perfect if there was toilet paper......
Chen Xu hugged Xi'er and lay on the couch, coaxed her to sleep, and when Xi'er fell asleep, he quietly got out of bed and opened the wooden box under the bed.
Inside the wooden box is a sharp weapon for killing.
A sniper rifle, two pistols, and a military stab. The pistol had run out of bullets, and the sniper rifle was inconvenient to carry with him, and he held the spur in his right hand, and there was no smile on his face.
The military thorn is a symbol of the wolf's fang, the wolf's tooth directly obeys the emperor's orders, performs special tasks, whether it is the local government or the Jinyi guard, even the Chinese military governor's office has no right to intervene...... (To be continued.) )
