Cheng Haofeng introduced him to people who didn't know Ma Mingfeng, and they greeted each other one by one. There were two tables set up in this courtyard, and men and women sat separately, because of the low rank of tall and strong, there were too many people at the men's table to sit, so he was allowed to sit in the women's table.

When Ma Mingfeng came, he naturally sat at the man's table, and he went over to sit next to Hu Dacang and the third uncle affectionately. He said that the master was not there, and the affairs of the junior brother should be decided by him, the senior brother, and the three elders sat together to discuss family affairs.

In this way, Ma Shuo, who was originally next to Hu Dacang and the third uncle, was squeezed away. Ma Shuo was not happy, and laughed strangely, "Other people's affairs have already been done by themselves, what do you want your senior brother to do?" ”

Ma Mingfeng scolded Ma Shuo with a straight face: "Go, go, don't intervene when adults talk and children." Master Du, you are also an elder, and you also came over next to me. ”

Du Chuan walked past Qin Mufeng with a smile, and the second fat hurriedly moved the stool for Du Chuan to sit down. They moved so much that Ma Shuo didn't even have a place to stand after he stood up.

Seeing his angry beard and glaring eyes, Gao Zhuang smiled and beckoned to Ma Shuo, "Come and sit next to me, we are low-level, in their eyes, we are children who can be separated from men and women." As he spoke, he glanced at Kang Wuxi, meaning that he was as big as Kang Wuxi.

"Am I the same age as them? You just call them "uncle" and call them "aunt", we are all brothers. ”

Gao Zhuangzhuang pressed Ma Shuo on the seat, looked at him sympathetically, and looked at the mud egg with some resentment, "Don't fight, the mud egg is younger than me, I have to call him 'uncle' when it comes to seniority, alas...... Brother Shuo, come with me to eat obediently. ”

Ma Shuo shouted awkwardly: "You have to call me 'Uncle Ma', what 'Brother Shuo'?" ”

This table is Hu Xianxian, Aunt Hu, Du Wanzhi, Liang Huifen, Liang Huiping, Sanhua, Jiakang Wuzhi six women and a child, even if Ma Shuo and Gao Zhuang are added, the original large round table of ten people is still loose. Ma Shuo and Gao Zhuang sat next to each other, deliberately leaving a large space to distinguish themselves from the women and children.

The two of them were so deliberately awkward, and the other people at this table were also awkward, only the young Kang Wuxian was concentrating on eating the food in his bowl.

He was eating, and suddenly said with a serious face: "Today's dishes are all dishes that clear the liver and clear the purpose of the dishes except for the ham, sauce meat, smoked duck and the like brought by others, and this must be specially made for Granny Hu and the third master." ”

Liang Huifen gave a thumbs up to Kang Wuxi, and squinted at Gao Zhuangzhuang and Ma Shuo, "Look at the two of you, such a little eater can be famous, and you two are useless." ”

Du Wanzhi and Liang Huiping both looked at Kang Wuxian with approval and pity, Qin Mufeng listened to what he said, but asked him sternly: "No disease, don't just show off your ability, can you tell me in detail what are the benefits of these dishes?" ”

Kang Wuxian heard the master's words, got up and stood beside the table, and replied respectfully: "Stir-fried chicken with milk vetch and green beans clears the liver and nourishes the stomach, and can also prevent dry eyes, and the taste is delicious and not greasy; Stir-fried mung bean sprouts, dispelling stomach fire, moistening the intestines and diuretic, can eliminate the dampness and heat of the eyes. “

Qin Mufeng bowed slightly, his face was still very serious, and Kang Wuxi continued: "Pig liver is a good product for nourishing the liver and nourishing blood, but unfortunately the pig liver is fishy, and if you eat too much, you will get angry." Uncle Hu skillfully mixed pork liver with mint, the flavor is fresh and does not lose the original effect of the food. There is also this water chestnut and kelp stewed duck soup, which clears heat and dehumidifies, and is the best for those who have a shadow in their eyes. “

When he said it, everyone nodded and praised, Qin Mufeng also showed a little smile, and Kang Wuxian saw that the master affirmed himself, and said more calmly: "Fried pork kidney flower with chives can prevent dizziness and double vision in front of the eyes, and can also alleviate the symptoms of tinnitus and ear tightness." This steamed glutinous rice cake wrapped in mulberry leaves is sweet and can prevent dry fire in the eyes, so you won't get pink eye if you eat it in summer......"

Seeing him say for a long time, Du Wanzhi scooped half a bowl of porridge to him: "Moisten your throat", and looked at Qin Mufeng with a little disgust, "This is the time to eat, not the time to take the homework, you let him have a meal with peace of mind." ”

Qin Mufeng waved his hand, smiled at Kang Wuxian and said, "Sit down and eat." ”

Kang Wuxian took the porridge bowl, thanked the master and the mother before sitting down, after he took a sip of the porridge, he smacked his mouth: "This is schisandra, wolfberry, lily millet porridge, it is an authentic medicinal diet for clearing the liver and brightening the purpose." “

Sanhua heard that many of these foods have medicinal effects, so she asked Kang Wuzhi if there were any foods for whitening and freckle removal. Kang Wuxian said seriously, rock sugar pear white fungus soup nourishes yin and moistens the lungs, soaked fungus to detoxify, peanut stewed pig's trotter tendon moisturizes the skin and nourishes the skin......

Sanhua heard this, turned around and shouted at Da Niu: "Da Niu, you help me remember this, I can't remember so much."

Da Niu agreed, and the others looked at them both and laughed meaningfully.

Sanhua was blushing with laughter, hugged Aunt Hu and said that Aunt Hu is the best, and everyone else is thinking crookedly.

Aunt Hu smiled and patted her head, "You are really not young, I think you are a good match for Da Niu." Alas, don't drag it like a fairy......"

She said that Hu Xianxian felt a pain in his heart, and Cheng Haofeng looked at Hu Xianxian who was guilty, and smiled gently.

Seeing them like this, Aunt Hu sighed and asked, "Xianxian, your medical skills are so magical, why don't you treat the eyes of that kid from the Cheng family?" ”

Hu Xianxian lowered his head and looked for something to say to his mother, "To be treated, he is more seriously ill, and he needs some medicine to be cured." ”

Du Wanzhi didn't want to say more of these words that made the atmosphere heavy, so she persuaded Aunt Hu to eat more vegetables, and the atmosphere slowly became cheerful again.

After the meal, when sitting around and chatting, Mudan'er suddenly sighed deeply: "The fate of all things in the world is really wonderful, I didn't expect that such a magical person in my eyes would become my sister and brother-in-law." ”

He grew much taller, but he was still thin due to the lack of nutrition in his childhood, and he was born with a baby face, and he looked even younger. It seems that he was so young and weak that he suddenly let out such an emotion, and instead of arousing everyone to sigh with him, they all laughed.

Mud Egg's face turned red from laughter, and he eagerly explained, "What are you laughing at? Sister Xianxian is just like my own sister, my life was saved by my brother-in-law, and I am truly grateful to God for allowing me to meet him. ”

Cheng Haofeng looked at the mud egg a little dazed, and it took a while to come back to his senses, isn't the mud egg staying by the side of the second elder of the Hu family on behalf of the Hu family's brothers and sisters an adopted son? Hu Xianxian is her sister, and the "brother-in-law" he refers to is, of course, himself.

Cheng Haofeng smiled and said: "At that time, it was your Immortal Sister and my sixth junior brother who contributed the most to save you, don't blindly thank me." ”

"I know they do a lot and I'm grateful to those who aren't here today. However, if you hadn't made the decision at that time, they might not have helped me to the end. You said, 'I'm a real god, I have a way to help him,' and I remember it clearly. ”

Several people present at the time recalled the scene at that time, and they were really arguing about whether to help the mud egg save the "Hu Ah Gong" he said, and Cheng Haofeng, who had not spoken, made a final decision as soon as he spoke.

Hu Dacang looked at Aunt Hu, and then at Cheng Haofeng, as if to tell her that if this kid didn't speak, we wouldn't be able to reunite. Aunt Hu looked at Cheng Haofeng's gaze much gentler, and then turned her head to look at Hu Xianxian, her eyes full of regret.

The mud boy spoke energetically, standing in front of everyone and gesturing as he spoke, "Also, his eyes swept like this at the time, 'Saving a person, can't we all do it?' 'Hey, there's no one to argue with going to save Daddy right away. ”

He was originally shy by nature, but today when he saw that everyone listened to him, he listened to him with relish, and he became more and more energetic, and he also ran outside the door to pick up a dry branch to learn the way Cheng Haofeng fought with Orihun.

Mud Dan'er's face was solemn, his body was straight, and he shouted: "Tai Chi Xuanwei Sword Technique!" ”

Although he has not learned martial arts or spells, he is young and flexible, and a withered branch dances in his hand with a sense of flowing water.

It's just that this kid is too complacent, and he uses the wall as an enemy thorn. After two or three strokes, the dead branch broke with full strength.

The mud egg couldn't contain its momentum, and as soon as the dead branch broke, it fell to the wall, but fortunately it was just a hand rubbing. Seeing his embarrassed appearance, everyone was amused and worried, he scratched the back of his head and blushed, bared his teeth and said, "It's okay, just break a little skin...... Don't look at my cowardice, my brother-in-law was really majestic at that time. ”

Hu Xianxian whispered in Cheng Haofeng's ear: "I didn't expect anyone to worship you so much......

Cheng Haofeng raised his eyebrows, and put on a look that he should be worshipped as a matter of course, causing Ma Shuo to pout.

Mud Dan'er was still excitedly saying, "Hey, I remember hearing them say that my brother-in-law later knocked that big crocodile off the cliff and was majestic again." ”

He crossed his waist with one hand, raised his head and squinted at the sky, and said, "If I don't become stronger, how can I be worthy of myself?" If I can't understand more and newer spells, won't I come to the world for nothing? ”

Cheng Haofeng's eyebrows drooped into a figure-eight shape, and he really wanted to yell at the mud egg - stinky boy, get out of the way, when have I ever made this kind of action? But who made him so praised at first? I'm embarrassed to talk about people at this time.

Hu Xianxian glanced at Cheng Haofeng, pointed at the mud egg, and then glanced at Cheng Haofeng. She really didn't know what to say, so she pursed her lips and snickered.

At this time, Liang Huifen smiled at the mud egg and said: "You worship him so much, it is better to worship him as a teacher and learn a few tricks." ”

"Okay." The mud egg promised crisply, but in an instant he changed his words, "It's not good, it's not good...... If you want to descend a generation, you can't get it. ”

Liang Huifen didn't understand, "Descend a generation?"

"The brother-in-law is an equal, and the apprentice is going to be a generation shorter, and worshipping him as a teacher is not a generation."

Seeing his serious appearance, everyone laughed, Hu Xianxian saw Cheng Haofeng's cheeks flushed with laughter, but his heart ached - he rarely smiled so easily, he really rarely had no heart and lungs to care about fun.

When it was time to apply, the guests all got up to say goodbye. The brothers and sisters of the Mai family left first with their friends, and then the second fat family and Liang Huiping's mother and son also left, and the Hu family's parents and mud eggs also left although they were reluctant. They all have something to do, and Yizhuang has no conditions to keep them overnight, so they can't enjoy the moon together on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival.

After nightfall, Hu Xianxian lit the lantern given by his mother. The orange-shaped lantern and the orange gauze cover reflect a warm orange color. The silent mountains and wilderness, the deserted Yizhuang, sure enough, are much warmer because of this light.

Cheng Haofeng looked at the lantern under the eaves, and his pale face looked much better under the light.

Hu Xianxian took out oranges for him to eat, he pinched the oranges and didn't peel them, looked at the lantern and said with a smile: "Three orange lamps, good omen, good omen." ”

When she saw that he hadn't peeled an orange, she took the orange and helped him peel it, peeled out the petal and fed it to him. He ate one and whispered, "You can't sleep with me tonight." ”

"Why?"

Before he could answer, Ma Shuo came out and said: "Today, the mud eggs are calling him, the 'brother-in-law' is long, and the 'brother-in-law' is short, and he can't hold it anymore."

Cheng Haofeng ignored Ma Shuo, touched the orange petal from her hand, and fed it to her. She smiled sweetly as she ate it, and fed him more. Seeing the two of them feeding back and forth like this, Ma Shuo spread his hands and walked away bored.

This orange is sweet, but there is a hint of bitterness in the sweetness of the white pulp stained on the outside of the orange petal. Hu Xianxian wanted to pick those white cakes, but Cheng Haofeng asked her not to remove them, so she ate them like this.

The orange light reflected his clear and shallow smile, and he held her hand and whispered in her ear: "A hint of bitterness in sweetness is not all bitterness, and bitterness in sweetness is a blessing; If you encounter a really bitter day, it will not be all bitter, and there will be a hint of sweetness in the bitterness. ”
