Chapter 120: Cheng Chumo
The father and son consulted until midnight, and then went back to their respective rooms to sleep.
The next day, when Li Xiang hadn't woken up yet, Cheng Chuliang had already brought his eldest brother Cheng Chumo over, and Cheng Chuliang also wanted to go to the front line, but the court had the rules of the court, although your father was the deputy marshal this time, but he could only bring one son over, and other families had also arranged people, if you take all the people from your family, next time your father will not get the opportunity to go to the front line, and your children don't want to go to the front line.
When he saw Cheng Chumo, Li Xiang knew that these two people must be brothers, the same big man and the same beard, if he put on a bear skin, this would definitely be a beast.
"I've seen Your Highness."
After the introduction, Cheng Chumo hugged his fists, even if the two sides have met, after all, there are not so many courtesies in this era.
"Compared with Second Brother Cheng, Brother Cheng seems to be as good as Second Brother Cheng, what do you usually eat? How can it grow like this? If this punch continues, the tiger will have to be killed, right? ”
Li Xiang said with a smile, Cheng Yanjin himself is very burly, these two sons are slightly more powerful than him, no wonder the family is developing in the army, if you come to be a civil official, it is estimated that you will scare the people as soon as you sit in the court, let alone judge the case.
"Hehe, Your Highness laughed, our father taught us to eat more and grow strong since we were young, and people can only be bullied when they are strong, and our brothers just listen to Dad, and they can eat five or six steamed buns in one meal, and now they have grown to eight or nine."
Cheng Chumo said a little embarrassed, and Cheng Chuliang next to him also touched his stomach, he was in a bit of a hurry in the morning, and he didn't seem to have eaten much.
"It just so happened that I didn't eat breakfast, so the two brothers sat down and ate together."
Li Xiang walked to the flower hall next to him, and Miss Mengqin immediately came up with a small snack.
"Delicious ......"
Li Xiang naturally didn't like these dim sums in the Tang Dynasty, so he wrote the recipe himself, and then asked the master in the house to make it himself.
Belch...
The two brothers didn't treat themselves as outsiders, when Li Xiang finished eating a piece of pastry, the other plates on the table were already empty, Li Xiang hurriedly waved his hand, and Miss Mengqin asked people to go down to prepare.
"I'm really sorry, Your Highness, your dim sum is so delicious, I haven't eaten this thing since I'm so old."
Cheng Chuliang stuffed the last piece of dim sum into his mouth, these two brothers are not only very similar in size to Cheng Yanjin, but also have the ability to learn hob meat very similarly, and they don't know what politeness is when they go to other people's homes.
"I'll bring it back to the two of you later, and next month Zhidao Bao will sell these pastries, and if you have an idea, you can send someone to buy it directly, but the eldest brother shouldn't be able to eat it, we should be going to leave soon, right?"
Regarding the time of departure, the emperor said that the two generals would decide, but Li Xiang naturally did not know.
"My father said last night that we will set off in about three days, and Tuyuhun's army has already begun to provoke, even if we hurry up, it will take more than ten days to reach the border."
Cheng Chumo clapped his hands, and when it came to serious things, the two brothers also became serious, which is also Cheng Yanjin's usual behavior.
The three of them are all young people, and after chatting for a while, they can be regarded as acquaintances, mainly because the two brothers who have a family are broad-minded, and they are also honest people, although there will be a little calculation, but the three views are absolutely fine, and Li Xiang is also willing to associate with such people.
"What's wrong with the two brothers?"
Li Xiang saw that these two people looked at each other, there should be something to ask of him, not to mention that he was about to go to the front line, even if he didn't go to the front line, the three of them were in such a relationship, and they should help each other if they had something.
"Let me tell you, my eldest brother is thin-skinned, he wants to ask you for a steel knife, of course it's not for nothing, my eldest brother doesn't save money in normal times, so he can't take out 3,500 yuan, now it's only 2,500 yuan, and the remaining 1,000 yuan is waiting for you when the war is over, you also know that we all get rich when we go to the battlefield."
Cheng Chuliang saw the twisting and pinching appearance of the eldest brother, and immediately said these words, Li Xiang thought that what was the matter, it was nothing more than a steel knife.
"Say those words out of sight? Our brothers hit it off at first sight, I just gave Brother Cheng a hand, maybe this steel knife can save my life on the battlefield. ”
Li Xiang said nonchalantly.
"That's not good, how much money is how much is how much, your steel knife is also on the cost and time, if you don't take my money, then when I have never been here."
Cheng Chumo raised his face and said, it is not easy to let yourself owe money to get the steel knife first, if you don't want money, then you won't be able to get a real hob meat?
The most important thing is that Li Xiang is doing a business, if others hear the news, how should Li Xiang do business in the future? Can you still collect money from those people?
"Your Highness, just do what my eldest brother says, otherwise you will be embarrassed in the future, if you make your brother embarrassed, then we will see you half a head shorter in the future."
Cheng Chuliang saw that Li Xiang was about to shirk, and immediately said very solemnly, Li Xiang thought that everyone was a man, and they all wanted to be face-saving, if they were given a steel knife for nothing, Cheng Chumo might feel uncomfortable in the future, so he asked Qian Ping to go to the door to order money.
"Have a bar at my place at noon today, it's our Zhuangxing wine, it's always okay, right?"
Li Xiang looked at it and couldn't just eat snacks, not to mention that it was already ten o'clock in the morning, and the two brothers had no intention of leaving, so they clearly wanted to stay here and drink.
"That's a good ...... for daring"
When he said the money to buy a knife just now, Cheng Chumo was very serious, and now when he talks about drinking, Cheng Chumo doesn't want to do this anymore, you must know that Li Xiang must have the top Tang Tianjiu here, and their old Cheng family also bought a few catties, but it was his father's, and if the two brothers wanted to drink something, they couldn't wait for his father to beat them up.
Li Chengqian originally had something to discuss with his son, but when he heard that the two sons of Cheng Yanjin were drinking, Li Chengqian didn't come to join in the fun, it is said that he and Cheng Chuliang are the same generation, but Li Xiang is now the same as these people and brothers, Li Chengqian is a little inappropriate when he comes out, will his son and father call him brother when the time comes?
