In the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, Changxing Island was very lively. The sound of "crackling" firecrackers is non-stop, and after nightfall, fireworks explode one after another in the sky with brilliant brilliance. The entire Changxing Island is like a battlefield, and the nose is full of the smell of gunsmoke. Xiaoyu set off fireworks for a while and saw Li Xiao standing in front of the large glass window watching. Suddenly, I felt stupid to be freezing outside on a cold day, so I turned around and ran into the house and got into my eldest brother's arms. Inside the warm room, watch the fireworks that keep exploding outside.

Li Xiao stood in front of the glass window and smoked a cigarette, watching Li Hao grab a chicken downstairs, twist his neck and throw it into the pot of boiling water.

Silly boy, I don't know that killing chickens requires bloodletting. Li Xi is a little worried about tonight's Chinese New Year's Eve dinner! However, Li Hao, who didn't even dare to kill chickens in previous years, now dares to kill chickens, which is indeed a big progress, and needs to be praised.

In the living room below, Li Xiu was rolling dumpling wrappers. Unexpectedly, this guy's dumpling skin is still well rolled, not to mention the uniform thickness, and the size is just right. After Sister Qiao'er's hand pinched, it became a dumpling like an ingot.

I don't know when these hands, which have thousands of lives, practiced this kung fu.

"Big brother, the third brother won't come back!" Xiao Yu hugged Li Xiao's arm and looked at the fireworks, and her big eyes were curved like crescents.

"His ability to be the chief of Shanhaiguan has been decided. This group of them are all company-level officers, and they will all lead troops in the future, and they can't stop people if they don't have any real skills. Li Xiao touched Xiaoyu's head, and suddenly found that Xiaoyu had grown to the height of his waist.

The younger siblings are growing up day by day, and life is getting better day by day. Li Xiao still remembers that when he escaped from Liaoyang, he didn't even have a place to shelter from the wind and rain on Phi Island. In the wood-paneled house in the winter, I don't know how to survive it.

"Sister Yanrong has a big belly, and Sister Qiao said that she has my little nephew in her belly. Big brother, how did the child come out? The fourth brother said that he wanted to cut open Sister Yanrong's belly, he said that he had seen people's stomachs cut open, and the intestines were blue and similar to pig intestines, so Sister Yanrong would not die. Xiao Yu raised her head and looked at Li Xiao with big eyes. The innocent questioning made Li Xiao feel a little scary!

It is not the right decision for a child who should be in elementary school to learn to kill people. Li Hao is so small, will his view of right and wrong be seriously distorted. Li Xiao didn't think that the person called Scar could teach children benevolence, righteousness, etiquette, wisdom and faith.

glanced at Li Hao worriedly, this guy was holding scissors in his hand. Take a pigeon out of its cage and cut off its head at once. When the pigeon is thrown on the ground, its wings are constantly fluttering.

Li Xiao's worries are getting more and more serious! Children are too malleable, always going from one extreme to another. Children who don't dare to look at killing chickens now dare to cut the pigeon's head with scissors. Li Xiao absolutely believed that Scar had once dissected a living person in front of these children.

I have never had a family in my two lives, nor have I had children. When it comes to the education of children, it's really inadequate. Why don't you hand over Li Hao to Mao Wenlong ......! It's almost inevitable that you will play with the old fox all day and become a little fox.

Think about it......!

Walking downstairs with Xiaoyu, he wanted to ask Li Xiudu what Li Hao had experienced.

"Down? This year's New Year is much more lively than last year, and last year's Tartar made a fuss, and the New Year was not good. Sister Qiao saw Li Xiao walking down, with a happy look on her face.

"The Tartars didn't dare to come this year, and they probably won't dare to come in the future. The front is moving north year by year, and in a few years we will almost be able to return to Liaoyang for the New Year. Li Xiao took a dumpling wrapper rolled by Li Xiu and wrapped one. The appearance is too poor, and it looks like a piece of compared to Sister Qiao'er's ingot-like dumplings.

"That's it! Come on! You're the one who does big things, this is what our girls do, so don't you interfere. Erya, come over and help. Sister Qiao shouted in the direction of the kitchen.

"Hey!" There was a crisp yes in the kitchen, and then a young man in a red cotton jacket walked out.

When the girl saw Li Xiao, she lost her smile and became extremely restrained.

"It's ......!" Li Xiao was a little stunned, he had never seen such a girl before. Big eyes, apple-like face. He is tall and looks to be at least 1.7 meters. Tall chest, strong figure. It seems that it is the young version of Sister Qiao'er.

"Erya! I begged Lao Ao for a little one, why did I come over to help, did I let the handsome make dumplings for you to eat. Sister Qiao glared at Erya with a smile, and when Erya passed by Li Xiao, she bowed to Li Xiao, and then ran to the marble table and began to make dumplings. Obviously, Li Xiao's appearance put a lot of pressure on her. So much so that the hands of making dumplings are a little trembling!

The wife marries a little wife to her husband, and the men of this era are so happy!

Looking at this sturdy body, it does belong to the one that Ao Canghai likes.

"Lao Ao is outside all the year round, and he can't do it without a woman by his side. Rather than asking him to find the mess back, I'd better find one for myself. Erya is a native of Korea and went to Liaodong when he was a child. I can speak our Chinese! Look at this board, this **, this ass, it looks like it's easy to raise. After waiting for us for a year and a half, I will be able to give birth to a fat doll. Sister Qiao showed off her treasure, pinched Erya's breasts, and patted her buttocks. made Erya's red cotton jacket sticky with a lot of flour.

"Very good! Hehe! Very good! Looking at Sister Qiao'er's satisfied smile, Li Xiao could only say these two words in embarrassment.

"You look good, don't you! After the New Year, I will send it to Shandong. Take it with you when you leave, and send it back when you have a child. Without me watching, my heart is not steady. "Sister Qiao'er is like instructing a child, instructing Li Xiao.

"Uh......! Yes! You wrap it, I'll wander around. On this matter, Li Xiao didn't want to speak again. His current identity does not allow him to talk nonsense. Sometimes a word from those in power can lead to unexpected consequences.

At the door, Yan Rong and Xiaohong were giving Li Hao a hand. The pigeon feathers were scalded with hot water and began to pluck their feathers, and Mao Wenlong sent a Guangdong cook. It is said that he did a good job in Guangdong, and Li Xiao watched him make yellow mud pigeons. The process is similar to that of calling a flower chicken, at most it is the difference in materials.

In fact, Li Xiao has no good impression of Cantonese cuisine, he went to Guangdong for morning tea in his last life, and was tortured to death by sweet steamed buns. In this life, when I saw Cantonese food, I felt a little resistant. But I think Yuan Chonghuan loves Cantonese food, after all, his hometown is Dongguan.

"Yanrong has a body, rest for a while. Xiao Hao, if you love to eat, you can kill one or two. Seeing that Li Hao had a tendency to kill all the pigeons in a cage, Li Xiao had to stop it. These pigeons are for the smoke to replenish the body, specially bought from the capital of the meat pigeons, one by one to feed fat.

Yan Rong stood up at this time, and this month has been revealed. Holding his stomach in both hands, it seems that it has been very hard just now.

The status of the concubine is a little higher than that of the servant, even if it is a pregnant concubine, the status is not noble. This is also in Li Xiao's family, if it is in another official family, killing a concubine is not a big deal.

There are even many officials who send concubines back and forth to each other. Mingli calls him a brother, but secretly he has already become a godbrother. Some shameless people also say that this is the true meaning of the good of the family.

Yanrong's identity problem has not been solved for a day, and her heart is uneasy for a day. Live like a rabbit all day long, stay with Xiaohong and huddle together to keep warm.

"Find a place to rest for a while, it's inconvenient for people who have a body. Eat with us at a table in a moment! After Li Xiao finished speaking, he shook his head helplessly.

"Xie Dashuai!" Yanrong and Xiaohong's tears are about to flow down, and the concubine is not allowed to eat on the table. Now the head of the house lets them serve the table, this is the ......! It's just that both of them are on the table, so ......! Soon a new troubled mind enveloped the sisters again!

Li Hao glanced back in surprise, and his head was blown off by Li Xiao. Half-size, I want to eavesdrop on everything a day.

There are constantly firecrackers, and fireworks explode in the sky from time to time. A piece of joy!

This year is a world away from the miserable year a few years ago.

After looking at the courtyard for a while with his hands behind his back, he suddenly had an overcoat on his body. When I looked back, it was Tokugawa Chihime, and when I saw Li Xiao looking at her, her arm immediately wrapped around Li Xiao's arm.

Holding Tokugawa Chihime's soft body, her identity is also a concubine. Although Li Xiao has no other wives, she is a little wife in name.

The Japanese people don't know how to make dumplings, and Tokugawa Chihime is ingenious, but she hasn't learned it. Perhaps this is the innate skill of the Chinese nation, or maybe Tokugawa Chihime is unwilling to learn.

"Hey! I have to ask Wang Tong to encourage more ducks and geese! The shoulders were pressed heavily by the military coat, and Li Xiao couldn't help but start complaining.

"What do you do with ducks and geese?" Tokugawa Chihime asked curiously.

"Duck down and goose down are tucked into the inside of the garment, which is better than the warmth of cotton, and the weight is far lighter than that of a military coat." Li Xiao hugged Tokugawa Chihime, but he was thinking about the down jacket in his heart. This thing is lightweight to wear and has good thermal properties. It is really a must-have product for home travel and killing.

"Yanrong's belly is bigger, how can the concubine's belly ......!" Tokugawa Chihime's big watery eyes looked at Li Xiao, full of longing. She didn't dare to be interested in a down jacket or something, but she was very envious of Yanrong's belly.

If Yanrong's child is a girl, it will be fine, and if it is a boy, it will be the first boy in the next generation of the Li family. Although it is a concubine, the status will still be very special.

As a woman of Li Xiao, she fell behind in the matter of pregnancy. Yanrong felt a deep crisis, and the woman's face was sometimes supported by her belly.

“……！” Li Xiao was speechless, it stands to reason that he has been working hard for a long time, and there should be a harvest. But so far there is still no harvest!

"Teacher!" Zheng Sen's voice came from behind him, which could be regarded as dragging Li Xiao back from his embarrassment.

For Zheng Sen and Li Xiao, he actually felt a little guilty, this child was self-learning most of the time. Only ask questions when you are with yourself once in a while. But for a studious child, none of this is a big deal.

This kid has nothing to do and learns basic medicine from Tang Ruowang and Li Zhongzi, this guy can be regarded as a dual major in Chinese and Western medicine. It is said that it has become a little bit now, and you can see some headaches and brain fever and other problems.

I also learned a lot of elementary mechanical knowledge from Yu Lao, especially after Li Xiao taught him the formulas for measuring area and volume, this guy became like a fish in water. Now he often follows the fisherman to the major weapons test sites, and it is said that the steam engine, which covers an area the size of half a basketball court, has his share of credit.

"Sister Qiao said it was time to eat!"

"Oh! You go and call Xiaohao and them, let's have Chinese New Year's Eve dinner. Li Xiao walked into the room with a smile. It is very rare to be able to come back to spend a year with my younger brothers and sisters, and it is conceivable that Man Ye and Ao Ye should be drinking in the distant city of Jinan at this time.

Li Xiu had already washed his hands and sat on the table watching the servants at home busy with their work. His seat is next to Li Xiao, the standard second master.

There are already a few dishes on the table, crabs with big pot lids, and shrimp with thick arms. Abalone is a pound, and as for whether you can eat it all, it is not within the scope of the cook's consideration. This year's seafood pays attention to one word, big!

But the most eye-catching dish is a huge pork knuckle. It is said that Zu Dashou went into the mountains to hunt and accidentally hunted a wild boar. Looking at this appearance, it seems true to say that this wild boar has a thousand catties.

"Let's eat!" Xiaoyu sat beside Li Xiao, Li Hao looked at his occupied position helplessly, and ran to Li Xiu's head to sit down.

"Sister Qiao, don't show up, let's eat!" Li Xiao greeted Sister Qiao with a smile.

"It's coming!" Sister Qiao sat down next to Xiaoyu.

When Yanrong and Xiaohong sat on the seats, Li Xiu's face changed.

"Huzi's blood in Penglai can be exchanged for this seat." Li Xiao patted Li Xiu's shoulder.

Li Xiu finally didn't speak, didn't object, and of course didn't agree. With such a reaction, Li Xiao was already quite satisfied.

"It seems that the old man is not too late!" The fisherman and Inafuyou walked in together.

These two old glasses now have a tendency to evolve into conjoined babies, and they are paired wherever they appear. They are the guests specially invited by Li Xiao this year, and this year, the Changxing Island Arsenal has repeatedly produced high-tech products.

What shocked Li Xiao the most was that these two guys, with the help of the steam engine, really came up with a batch of fixed ammunition. Through the test of the Battle of Big Tiger Mountain in Montenegro, both single-shot rifles and revolver rifles are quite reliable. The infantry who can lie in the trenches, and the Houjin army who are still playing linear tactics.

If it weren't for the premature destruction of the mortar position, Cao Wenzhao could easily hold the main position of the Great Black Mountain.

"It's too late, let's all have a meal." Li Xiao bowed his hand to the fisherman and Dao Fuyou. The two old fellows hurriedly returned the salute, and the two were led into their seats by the servants.

The last guest had arrived, and Li Xiao gave the order to officially open the table.
