"Hehe, in fact, the eldest brother is too busy, and we don't want to bother rashly, so," Geng Zhaozhong also said with a smile on the side. Originally, they were quite afraid of their eldest brother, and when they first came back, they could be said to have no understanding of the situation in Fujian. What Geng Jimao said to their two brothers before he died, they still remember it to this day. But when he started early, he really didn't care, but when he really understood the real strength of Fujian controlled by Geng Jingzhong, he was really about to bulge his eyeballs.

At the time of Geng Jimao's death, the Mawei Group already had 60,000 elites, hundreds of warships, and countless muskets and artillery. Even the Wa Kingdom surrendered to the feet of his eldest brother, and the entire Fujian can be said to have enough soldiers and food, which gives them the feeling that they are much more powerful than the Eight Banners of the Manchu Dynasty. The two of them followed Geng Jimao's last orders, stayed in Fujian and did not return to the capital. Fujian is the territory of their Geng family, and they will no longer have any scruples here, unlike in the capital, where there are dragons and grandsons with yellow and red belts everywhere, and there are a lot of people who can't afford to offend.

They thought that the real good days were coming, but under Geng Jingzhong's order, their dreams were shattered. First of all, Geng Jingzhong put the two of them in the barracks for more than half a year of intensive training, and while training, he learned scientific knowledge. They have known words for a long time, and they also know some of the Four Books and Five Classics, but they don't know anything about mathematics, physics, chemistry, etc., although their physical fitness is not bad. But it's not good. More than half a year of military training and evening training and cramming teaching have made up a lot for the two of them.

Although Geng Jingzhong's order was given. But how could the two of them be honestly obedient. went reluctantly, but he didn't listen to the command, and he hid in the bed in the dormitory all day to sleep. So Geng Jingzhong ordered again to let his two personal guards supervise the training, and strictly demanded that they come according to the rules of the military camp. In terms of academics, regular assessments will be conducted every week, and one day off of the week will be cancelled if they fail to pass. In addition, it is necessary to close the confinement, and cancel the monthly money for a month, so that even if you pass the guò next week, there will be no money to go out and play. This one is completely non-negotiable, after the two of them were punished twice, they were honest, knowing that Geng Jingzhong was playing for real, and when the struggle was fruitless, they had to cooperate honestly. Completed half a year of intensive training.

Half a year, although extremely hard. But the two of them are indeed half reborn, almost all the problems in the past are gone, and they have also made a lot of friends in the barracks, it should be said that they are comrades-in-arms. Of course, they hid their identities in the barracks, and it was in this way that they gained true friendship and truly realized what true friendship was, which was completely different from the wine and meat friends they had met in the capital before.

Next, after coming out of the barracks, Geng Jingzhong did not directly send them to take charge of the troops, but put them in the princess fang and the trading company to study, although they trained in the barracks for half a year, but after all, they are still the type of gentlemen in their bones, without the slightest city government, let alone any experience in doing practical things. Put them in these two places to study, so as to make up for their shortcomings. The reason why they are not put together is also because they will give birth to right and wrong together, so it is better to do one separately.

In the past two years, the brothers Geng Juzhong and Geng Zhaozhong have been very different from when they first came back, which can be described as judging the two of them, if their friends in the capital saw them, they would definitely be unbelievable. However, it is precisely because they have grown up and understood more things that the two of them are more afraid of their eldest brother. His eldest brother was not a few years older than them, but what he did was to throw them off for 108,000 miles, except for fear, what remained in his heart was admiration.

But Geng Jingzhong is their eldest brother after all, and he is usually very good to them, and he slowly knows Geng Jingzhong's temperament, and his fear is slowly eliminated. Geng Jingzhong did not let them be idle, but sent them to the training camp, full of gratitude. They themselves have long realized how ridiculous their original selves were, and that kind of life without an ideal goal in life is simply like a walking corpse, or a dung machine qì moth in society, which is really meaningless.

"What are you two talking about, we are brothers, I just have something and I won't turn you away, sometimes I'm busy, but you can still come over when I stay in the palace, bring a few little nephews and nieces together, play with Wenwen, and also promote the relationship between their brothers and sisters." When Zhuang Zhuang is older, he can join them, but his brothers and sisters will have to take him with them! Geng Jingzhong said with a smile.

Geng Juzhong and Geng Zhaozhong looked at each other and smiled, and Geng Juzhong said: "Big brother said so, we must obey our fate." But today, our brothers should have a drink! ”

"Not bad, not bad, good wine is not a drink together!" Geng Zhaozhong also agreed.

"Okay, don't be in a hurry to drink, how about the county taste my dish today, this is my own hand!" Geng Jingzhong pointed to the dishes on the table and said.

Geng Juzhong and Geng Zhaozhong have already learned that this is Geng Jingzhong's own dish today, they were still suspicious on the road before, and they were also surprised when they saw Geng Jingzhong serving the dish himself, this will be the real certainty: "It's really a dish made by the eldest brother himself!" Then we're going to have to try it! "Just kidding, the dignified prince cooks the dishes himself, even if the two of them are the younger brothers of the prince, I'm afraid that no one will believe it.

After a few people finished speaking, Geng Juzhong and Geng Zhaozhong took the children to wash their hands at the door and then entered the dining room, there were several ice basins around the dining room, which made the temperature inside very cool, Geng Jingzhong thought that he didn't have to worry about being too hot when he ate spicy food like this, but at this time Geng Jingzhong found that a few children actually began to play with water, and couldn't help but scold, it was not good for children to play in water, and the dining room was full of water.

Geng Jingzhongli immediately continued to beckon everyone to take their seats, and then he spoke: "Although this chili pepper was introduced to the palace by me, the reason why the chili pepper can ripen depends on Huanxi and Chunzhu. It seems that several younger siblings also have credit. To express my gratitude. So I made a few dishes with chili peppers today. However, it is known in advance that the pepper has a strong spicy taste, and you may not get used to it at first, but when you get used to it, you will feel very delicious, and you may even feel no spicy in the future......

"Oh, Father, our stomachs are hungry for a long time. Let's hurry up and eat! Before Geng Jingzhong could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Wenwen, this little guy is only more than five years old, and he is so ghostly. As soon as he finished speaking, he took the lead in stretching out his chopsticks and picking up a piece of boiled fish, blowing it and putting it in his mouth. Although Geng Jingzhong has deliberately reduced the amount of chili peppers, boiled fish is a spicy-based dish after all, and it can be said that among these dishes, it is the spiciest. As a result, Wenwen was miserable now, and as soon as he put the fish meat in his mouth, he immediately spit it out again. Then he stretched out his pink little tongue and gasped, and said while gasping, "Water!" Give me water! It's spicy! ”

Seeing the tragic situation of the bracelet, several children who were about to put down the chopsticks were also startled, Geng Jingzhong had been prepared for this for a long time, and hurriedly handed a glass of ice water on the table to Wenwen, but he drank a few big sips in a row, and then he felt much better, but his mouth still felt hot. "Father, you lied, you said that the chili pepper is not too spicy, it is different from before. But this pepper is so spicy, how can it be eaten? Wenwen said with tears in the corners of his eyes, half spicy, half aggrieved feeling Geng Jingzhong deceived him.

"Haha~, my father has already told you just now, you may feel uncomfortable when you first eat the chili, but you will find its benefits when you taste it slowly, and the boiled fish you eat is the spiciest dish, of course you can't stand it, you can taste a few other ones that are not too spicy to try!" Zhou Zhong couldn't help laughing when he saw Wenwen wolf's appearance. "Remember my son, you are still a little younger, just eat these dishes here, this is a green pepper, and it is a slightly spicy one, the taste is very good, it is more suitable for you!"

At this time, Geng Jingzhong's words just fell, and I saw that Huan Xi next to Wenwen stretched out his chopsticks to pick up a chicken in the dish of Kung Pao Chicken, and then put it in his mouth and tasted it, it was really spicy, but it made people have a feeling of appetite, and the more they ate, the more they wanted to eat, which made Huan Xi very surprised: "Xianggong is right, come to Wenwen, try this, my mother has already tasted it." It tastes good! ”

Hearing what Huan Xi said, everyone else also stretched out their chopsticks to taste it, and found that it was indeed like what Huan Xi said, the spicy stimulation made people have a great appetite in this hot summer, and they couldn't help but taste a few other dishes at the moment, although they were all spicy and sweaty, but there was a transparent feeling, which was really wonderful. Wenwen and a few other little guys were so happy to see the big guys eating, and his father Geng Jingzhong even picked up the boiled fish and ate it non-stop, the two little eyes rolled around, and then plucked up the courage to taste the other dishes again, but after slowly getting used to the spicy taste, he soon found that it was indeed delicious, but he didn't taste the boiled fish again.

Although there was an ice basin in the living room, everyone in the dining room was still sweating all over their bodies, but even so, everyone still refused to stop, and ate all the dishes made by Geng Jingzhong one by one, and then began to make hot pot again, but at this time everyone liked the spicy taste, so the red pot was used when shabu-shabu, and the white pot that was not spicy was rarely moved.

"Whew~" Geng Jingzhong put down his chopsticks last, reminiscing about the hot and hot taste on the tip of his tongue. Half of this dish has been eaten, and the rest is the craftsmanship of the chefs of the palace. "Come on. Eat so fast, I forgot about the wine, cheers! Geng Jingzhong raised his wine glass and gestured.

"Big brother, I'll toast you!"

"Me too!"

The three of them drank it all. "Big brother, I've eaten this pepper before, it doesn't seem to be so delicious, but these you planted seem to taste much better, and the remaining peppers must be left for me, otherwise I won't be able to eat in the future!" Geng Zhaozhong finished drinking the wine in the cup, took another bite of the dish and said.

Geng Jingzhong heard that Geng Zhaozhong was addicted to eating chili peppers, and even asked for some chili peppers from himself, and several younger brothers and daughters-in-law on the other side also showed a little eager eyes, and smiled: "This chili pepper is the product of the scientific research base after several hybridizations, and the seeds will be left, and I plan to plant them on a large scale next year." For now, there won't be many fresh peppers that can be given to you, after all, the output in the house is here, and the three families will share one point, and it is still okay to eat one meal in a few days. When there is a large-scale harvest of chili peppers next year, we can all let go and eat it! ”

After hearing Geng Jingzhong's words, everyone was very happy and continued to eliminate the dishes on the table. Although there are still a lot of dishes on the table, everyone recognizes the spicy hot pot, and the one that eats is called a joy! (To be continued......)
