Ying Xiaozheng used both hands and feet, and wanted to escape from Xue's knees.

But he is only two years old, and Xue can hold it down with one hand. His ass hurt again, and the tears that Ying Xiaozheng had been howling for a long time did not come out, and now they immediately flew out.

Ying Xiaozheng's uncle, who asked for help, quietly probed from the door.

Zhu Xiang covered his eyes with both hands, and his fingers were too wide.

Ouch, look, there's a cub in there who was pinned to his knee and spanked because he was disobedient. Tut-tut, tears and snot flowed out, so miserable, miserable.

Take another look!

Zhu Xiang was so happy. This must be written in a journal!

Ying Xiaozheng saw Zhu Xiang.

His uncle looked like he was covering his eyes, as if he couldn't bear to see him beaten, and in fact the corners of his mouth were bursting with laughter.

The clever Ying Xiaozheng understood that the hateful uncle didn't want to save him at all, and he was happy to see him beaten!

Wait for me to grow up, wait for me to grow up......

Ying Xiaozheng's smart little head turned rapidly, and he finally figured out what he should do at this time.

"Auntie! Zheng'er is wrong! Zheng'er doesn't dare anymore! Zheng'er will no longer play dangerous swords! Ying Xiaozheng shouted at the top of his voice, "Zheng'er is wrong!" ”

Snow lowered her hand that was raised high again.

A trace of regret appeared in Zhu Xiang's eyes. I didn't expect Zheng'er to be so smart, and immediately noticed the right way to deal with it. Alas.

Xue pulled up Ying Xiaozheng's pants and took out a handkerchief to wipe Ying Xiaozheng's snot and tears: "Uncle patted your ass a few times with her empty hands, and you will cry in pain." If you were hurt by a sword, how much would it hurt? Your New Year's money and toys, your aunt and uncle will help you put them away. I'll give it back to you when you grow up. ”

Zhu Xiang saw enough of the excitement, and walked over and said: "As long as you learn to read and count, you can take care of the New Year's money; When you learn to use the sword, the dagger will be returned to you. Now you don't know anything, and your elders can only collect things for you, understand? ”

Ying Xiaozheng drooped his head and said: "So I gave my uncle the New Year's money to change the dagger, it's useless!" ”

Zhu Xiang smiled: "Yes, it's useless." I'll take your New Year's money too. ”

Ying Xiaozheng wanted to cry again.

Zhu Xiang laughed. No wonder the elders like to take away the children's New Year's money and dangerous toys in person, and it is really pleasant to watch the children's expressions from happy to sad.

Is this the bad taste of being an elder?

However, Zhu Xiang is not a completely evil elder. He cut paper into a palm-sized notebook, asked Xue to bind it with a needle and thread, and remembered the New Year's money and gifts received by Ying Xiaozheng today.

Zhu Xiang handed the small book to Ying Xiaozheng: "This is Zheng'er's private money account book." Now my uncle helps you save money and things, and when Zheng'er grows up, he will have a lot of money and gifts. In the future, everything that Zheng'er gets will be recorded on it. ”

Ying Xiaozheng hugged the ledger tightly: "Really? ”

Zhu Xiang smiled: "Of course." The uncle will prepare a small warehouse for Zheng'er, which will only store Zheng'er's property. ”

Ying Xiaozheng pursed his lips and said, "I want a beautiful wooden box to hold the dagger given by the teacher." ”

Zhu Xiang nodded: "Okay, we will visit Xianghe tomorrow and let Xianghe order a small wooden box for you with a dagger." ”

Ying Xiaozheng's mouth did not continue to deflat.

Children's emotions come and go quickly. Ying Xiaozheng quickly fell in love with the account book and left behind what he had just been beaten.

Zhu Xiang stretched out his hand and poked Ying Xiaozheng's meaty ass: "Does it hurt?" ”

Ying Xiaozheng jumped up suddenly: "Uncle! ”

Zhu Xiang: "Hahahahaha. "Which pot is not opened, which pot is mentioned, so happy!

Ying Xiaozheng was so angry that he kept hitting Zhu Xiang with his head, but he didn't dare to do anything to his aunt who had just beaten him.

Xue watched the two uncles and nephews quarrel again, and couldn't help laughing.

She was still a little worried that if she beat Zheng'er, Zheng'er would hate her. But the women she asked for advice said that children must be educated. If you indulge it now, you will regret it later.

Fortunately, Zheng'er is a good child, and her lover also supports her.

"Okay, General Li and Mr. Cai are still waiting for us outside." Xue waited for her uncle and nephew to make enough trouble before she said.

She hesitated, but was still a little worried: "Zheng'er, does it hurt?" ”

Ying Xiaozheng wanted to say that it didn't hurt anymore, but looking at her aunt's concerned expression, she changed her mouth when the words came to her mouth: "It hurts~." ”

Xue picked up Ying Xiaozheng, touched Ying Xiaozheng's face, and said guiltily: "Next time my aunt will be lighter." ”

Ying Xiaozheng pouted: "Can there be no next time?" ”

Xue Gong said with a straight face: "Zheng'er will be obedient in the future, and there will be no next time." ”

Zhu Xiang immediately interjected: "That must be difficult." Xue, I'll find you a thin bamboo stick next time, it hurts to pump your butt, but it won't hurt. lest thou shalt smite thy hand, and it hurts thy hand. ”

Ying Xiaozheng screamed: "Uncle! ”

Zhu Xiang: "Hahahahaha. ”

Xue's face couldn't stop it, and she sneered: "Love, don't tease Zheng'er." ”

Zhu Xiang laughed: "I didn't tease him, I'm serious!" ”

Ying Xiaozheng's cheeks were so angry that they puffed up, as if they were giving his uncle two fists.

Li Mu and Cai Ze were still a little worried that Ying Xiaozheng would not be taught too much, but after a while, they heard Zhu Xiang's rampant laughter and Ying Xiaozheng's angry noise.

The two looked at each other and relaxed.

They themselves don't spoil their children too much, but they can't help but spoil more in the face of Ying Xiaozheng. In addition, it is not good to teach the child a hard lesson during the New Year.

"Uncle, I hate you!" Although he was beaten by his uncle, Ying Xiaozheng decided to hate his uncle.

Zhu Xiang said seriously: "Okay, Zheng'er, you must try to hate your uncle until tomorrow dawn!" ”

Ying Xiaozheng said stiffly: "It's not tomorrow!" I hate my uncle the day after tomorrow! ”

Zhu Xiang said regretfully: "Really? The day after tomorrow is Zheng'er's birthday, and my uncle still wants to cook delicious food for Zheng'er that he has never seen before. It seems that Zheng'er can't eat it. The uncle, who was hated by Zheng'er, was not in the mood to cook a big meal. ”

Ying Xiaozheng: "......"

Snow was already laughing so hard that she couldn't hold her nephew in her arms.

Li Mu and Cai Ze exchanged a helpless look.

Li Mu: This uncle is even more naïve than his nephew.

Cai Ze: Poor Zheng'er.

Chapter 18 Baked potatoes dipped in salt

Ying Xiaozheng's hatred for his uncle didn't even last for the little time before going to bed.

Zhu Xiang only changed a magic trick for him, and Ying Xiaozheng surrounded Zhu Xiang, constantly bowing his head and arching Zhu Xiang with his little head wearing a hat, asking Zhu Xiang to change again.

Zhu Xiang's magic trick is the simplest "the bead is gone", as long as you are quick and add a little visual deception, you can do it.

Farming and field work are very boring, and Zhu Xiang learned a lot of strange tricks from the video. When lecturing to students, he would occasionally use these tricks to attract the attention of sleepy students.

Putting aside how he talked in class for the time being, relying on these little tricks, students gave him high marks when they chose courses, praising him for being lively and funny and handsome.

"When Zheng'er is born, my uncle will make Zheng'er even more powerful!" Zhu Xiang smiled and rubbed his nephew's round little head.

Ying Xiaozheng hugged Zhu Xiang's waist and legs: "Definitely!" ”

"Definitely." Zhu Xiang crossed his nephew's little head and promised.

Children are energetic, but they also run out of energy very quickly. Ying Xiaozheng made a fuss for a while, yawned for a while, and was carried to sleep by the snow.

Li Mu, Cai Ze, and Zhu Xiang were young and decided to stay up for a while longer to keep vigil at night.

Not long after eating the roasted whole lamb, the three big men were hungry again. They lit a campfire in a different place and roasted potatoes while roasting the fire.

When men are together, they always talk about national affairs. The three of them talked from Handan to the Xiongnu in the north, and then talked about the other six countries.

Zhu Xiang dipped the baked potatoes in some salt: "You say, will the war end?" ”

Cai Ze said: "Only when the world is unified can the war end." ”

Li Mu said: "Anyway, in my generation, I'm afraid it will be difficult to end the war." ”

Zhu Xiang divided the potatoes between the two: "What if I say that in our generation, the war will end?" ”

Cai Ze and Li Mu looked at Zhu Xiang in amazement, who almost didn't talk about national affairs, and would turn to farming on any topic.

Cai Ze smiled: "What, finally don't hide it?" Tell me about it? ”

Li Mu was curious: "Now that the seven kingdoms have been standing side by side for hundreds of years, why is Zhu Xiang sure that the war will end in our generation?" Is it a pinch? ”

Zhu Xiang shook his head: "It's not a calculation." The war has stretched the endurance of civilians to the limit. If a powerful country raises the banner of war with the goal of unifying the whole world, the morale of resisting the unification of the whole world will definitely be very low. Although a strong general may delay the unification of the world, the world is unstoppable. ”

He looked at the shocked expressions of the two and shook his head helplessly: "Just let me talk nonsense." In this era dominated by aristocrats and scholars, what the people want is very much like an idiot's words. ”

Cai Ze and Li Mu fell into deep thought and did not answer immediately.

Zhu Xiang took a bite of the potato.

Baked potatoes are soft and delicious with a little salt.

In fact...... It's not very tasty either. How delicious can baked potatoes be dipped in salt? Diet meals are better than this. Brush with some oil, sprinkle some cumin peppercorns and paprika.

Zhu Xiang went through the delicacies of the future in his mind, and sighed in his heart. He really wanted to reproduce all the delicacies of memory, but he didn't dare, for fear of fame and being forced to enter the palace.

"Your remarks are interesting." Cai Ze was the first to answer, "With your remarks, can the common people also decide the victory of the world?" ”

Li Mu quietly looked at Zhu Xiang's face illuminated by the firelight.

"When it is no longer the private soldiers of the nobles who fight, but the peasants who cultivate the land, the common people can already decide the victory of the world. Among the seven countries, whichever country has the best common people, the strongest fighting power. Zhu Xiang dug the fire and said, "Actually, the common people of the Seven Kingdoms are not doing well, but there are always people who are worse off than others." It's a worse world. ”

Cai Ze asked, "Why did you suddenly talk about this today?" ”

Zhu Xiang said in his heart, because Li Mu was about to go to the north to fight the Xiongnu, and Cai Ze had already decided to enter Qin. The three of them probably gathered around the fire for the last time to eat baked potatoes.

"I just want to say that the unification is unstoppable, and the two of you will have to be loyal to different kings in the future, right? If you encounter yourself against the general trend, don't be so noble, do your best, and run if you can. When the world is unified, we still have to figure out how to make the devastated civilians live better, and we also have to annex the north to continue to guard against the Xiongnu. ”

Zhu Xiang planed the fire: "If you can, don't die, you can do more things if you live." ”

Cai Ze was stunned, and then smiled dumbly: "So you want to say this?" Do you think I look like someone who will die with the king? General Lee is. ”

Li Mu: "...... Are you praising me? ”
