Chapter 12

"I'm back. As usual, Xiao Zheng Mingsheng raised first and then entered later.

"Hmm. Zheng Zong smiled lightly, but it was rare for him to cook today.

"Wow-it's so fragrant......" Xiao Zheng Ming leaned over and picked up the kitchen counter, and he had to stand on tiptoe to see it.

After all, he is not too tall, and he has to step on a wooden stool to cook on weekdays.

However, although Xiao Zheng Ming was quite eager to know what to eat tonight, the lid of the pot was covered, so he couldn't be specific.

Whew——

A moment later, when Zheng Zong lifted the lid of the pot, he poured a small half-gourd of liquor into the pot along the edge, stirring up a burst of steaming heat and oil smoke.

At that time, there will be another aroma of wine, which is intoxicating and mixed with the appetizing aroma of meat.

Looking at it, the soup is rich, the side dishes are also complete, but it is a good pot of stew, pheasants and wild fowl.

"Wow-" Xiao Zheng Ming looked at the dishes in the pot with starry eyes, and couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva greedily.

"Whew, uh-huh. Seeing this, Zheng Zong couldn't help laughing, and then put the lid back on the pot, and said with a smile: "Let's go and clean up the table and prepare the dishes and chopsticks." ”

"Hmm!" Xiao Zhengming nodded heavily, and hurriedly ran over to prepare the tableware.

"Whew. Zheng Zong smiled slightly, and after waiting for a while, he raised his hand to remove the lid of the pot, and a large portion of the simmering pot also came out of the pot.

"Ahh Xiao Zheng Ming followed behind Zheng Zong with his arms around the dishes and chopsticks, smiling happily.

Soon sat down.

"Today is a day of remembrance. Xiao Zheng Ming sat on the stool happily, he held a chopstick in one hand, and kept gently beating the table with his fist, and said with a smile: "Uncle Zhang and Uncle Zhang's family welcome a son, and it is rare for Daddy to cook in person, which is really good." ”

He's waiting for Zheng Zong to serve him a meal.

Hearing this, Zheng Zong, who was serving a meal to Xiao Zheng Ming, smiled slightly, but he didn't stop serving the meal, and said casually: "I heard, Zhang Duan, a good name, a good child." ”

"Hmm!" Xiao Zheng Ming nodded heavily, smiling.

Zheng Zong smiled, and then handed the rice to Xiao Zheng Ming first, and then gave himself the rice.

"Hah. Xiao Zheng Ming took the wooden rice bowl with both hands, hugged the bowl and chopsticks with happiness and satisfaction, and said, "Thank you, Daddy." ”

Hearing this, Zheng Zong shook his head with a smile, put down the wooden spoon that served the rice, and when he first sandwiched a piece of pheasant leg for Xiao Zheng Ming, he said softly: "Eat, see what you are gluttony." ”

"Hah. Xiao Zhengming's laughter is still as crisp and pleasant as a baby, but he is not slow to move.

During the full meal, Xiao Zheng Ming shook his little head beautifully, and he looked extremely happy when eating.

......Seeing this, Zheng Zong smiled shallowly, he looked at Xiao Zheng Ming softly, and the kid in front of him seemed to overlap with the baby on the lotus leaf.

Zheng Zong looked at Xiao Zheng Ming quietly, or had a lot of feelings, but in the end it was silent.

Seeing his father staring at him, Xiao Zheng Ming couldn't help but be stunned, and then muttered inarticulately: "Why doesn't Daddy eat it." ”

Hearing this, Zheng Zong immediately came back to his senses, smiled and shook his head one by one and said, "It's good to chew and swallow slowly." ”

"Hmm. Xiao Zheng Ming nodded lightly, as if he understood or not.

"That's right, Daddy. After swallowing the food in his mouth, Xiao Zheng Ming seemed to suddenly remember something and asked curiously: "You say, why are our human children born in lotus, but when Xiaobai gives birth to Xiaoxiaobai, he has to eat raw pregnancy grass?"

Hearing this, Zheng Zong was stunned, after all, he didn't think deeply about this kind of thing.

"Probably...... That's the case with this species. Zheng Zong shook his head slightly, and he was a little uncertain.

"Oh......" Xiao Zheng Ming nodded as if he didn't understand, and then suddenly asked with a light in his eyes: "Then you said, if you let Xiao Bai use the human way to derive offspring, will the result be the same?"

"......" At this time, Zheng Zong was indeed asked.

After a meal, Zheng Zong shook his head silently, and then knocked on Xiao Zheng Ming's head with chopsticks, and said nonchalantly: "You have a lot of problems, so don't hurry up and eat." ”

"Hehe...... " Xiao Zheng Ming scratched his forehead with a smile, and after knowing that it was not good to ask again, he quietly followed his father to eat together, but this question has been haunting his heart and cannot be dissipated for a long time.

After the meal, Xiao Zheng Ming suddenly remembered the appointment with Li Sheng, so he mentioned to Zheng Zong that he was going to hunt in the forest caves, although Zheng Zong had slandered Xiao Zheng Ming's head and had a bad memory, but he did not discourage the other party's interest, so he agreed to let him go.

The next day, early in the morning.

The hour had not yet arrived, but many people had gathered outside the entrance of the village, and most of them were well-equipped hunters with bows and arrows. And among these people, Li Sheng's father Li Wanquan should be the leader. As for Li Wanquan's son, Li Sheng, he was standing not far from the entrance of the village at this time, slightly away from his father's group.

"Wow—it's really unjust! There's no morality at all!" Li Sheng was so angry in his heart, but he couldn't help but crane his neck and look around, trying to find his team members from the empty village road or other corners.

Li Sheng is carefully dressed today, he is dressed in a professional hunter's attire, whether it is a complete set of equipment, or the way of hanging and wearing on his back, he is impeccable, and it is obvious that this is a qualified and professional hunter.

Of course, if he was taller.

To be honest, Li Sheng is now anxious and angry, he is anxious because his father finally agreed to let him form his own hunter team, but this first expedition, no one dared to come, and only he was left as a bare-bones commander.

And he is angry, because of this, but there is another reason, that is-Originally, when Li Sheng wanted to come, as soon as he came out with such a costume and style, his friends would definitely chase after him one by one, and he did his best to pat the horse, and he was envious and worshipped, after all, this equipment, how spirited!

However, when the hour was approaching, instead of waiting for his teammates, he was ridiculed by his father, which made him really faceless and upset.

Having said that, in Yiyuan Village, Li Sheng's family can be regarded as a prosperous "household" family, because they have an uncle and a father, an ancestor in the elderly, and a flat-headed brother among their peers. In addition, his father Li Wanquan is the chief hunter in the village, and his second uncle Li Gaoquan is also the chief of the village, so this one, in Yiyuan Village, is also a family with quite a façade.

"What time has it been, why hasn't anyone come yet!" Li Sheng was really impatient, so he paced there with his hands behind his back.

Li Wanquan was chatting with the members of the hunting team and friends in the village, but after inadvertently catching Li Sheng's appearance, he couldn't help but smile and grinned: "Stinky boy, let you ...... with Lao Tzu."

"Ha, ha, ah......" At this moment, Xiao Zheng Ming ran over from the direction of the bamboo forest. He saw Li Wanquan and the others at a glance, and even found Li Sheng at the back, and waved his hand with a smile on his face: "Zisheng!"

"Huh?" Hearing this, Li Sheng, who was so anxious that he scratched his ears and cheeks, instantly shook his head, he didn't move for a while, but when his shoulders moved slightly, he also turned around, and stretched his arms to Xiao Zheng Ming in the distance, and choked up: "Ziming......"

It turned out that just Xiao Zheng Ming's call made Li Sheng almost burst into tears......

Before this, Li Sheng can be said to be full of anxiety, chagrin and self-blame without catharsis, at this moment after looking forward to and waiting for a long time, his psychology suddenly relaxed, and all kinds of worries and distresses before have also become grievances in an instant, yes, it is not so much that Xiao Zhengming's arrival seems to be a timely rain, but rather that Li Sheng sees Xiao Zhengming as the last straw......

"Ugh. Seeing Li Sheng's strange appearance from a distance, Xiao Zhengming couldn't help but slow down his pace in a daze, and then continued to walk forward, while turning his head to look at Li Wanquan who was not far away, and cast a questioning gaze.

Seeing Xiao Zhengming's view, Li Wanquan also shook his head in embarrassment, then raised his hand and tapped his temples, and shook his head with a snicker at the corner of his mouth.

Seeing this, Xiao Zheng Ming felt even more inexplicable.

"Ziming!" didn't think about it, seeing that Li Sheng after Xiao Zhengming slowed down, he took the initiative to run over, only to see him holding Xiao Zhengming's right hand in the palm of his hand like a savior, and was about to cry with joy and choked up: "You are finally here, Ziming......"

In the depths of his affection, Li Sheng sobbed and wiped a handful of bitter tears, and then poured out in a choked voice: "You don't know how much I have been stared at and ridiculed by the old guy...... I'm really, I'm so my ......"

Xiao Zhengming scratched his head in embarrassment, and wanted to withdraw his hand No, don't pull it out, it doesn't seem to be, I want to comfort the other party, but I don't seem to know how to say it.

"Hey, a stinky boy!" Just when Xiao Zheng Ming was in trouble, it was Li Wanquan over there who helped to relieve the siege, but when he saw him, he smashed his mouth in a weird way and said: "My uncle is to let your kid go hunting with him, your uncle is good, and his uncle's place has become a monkey." ”

Hearing this, Li Sheng couldn't help but be stunned, and then turned his head to look.

However, he was really stunned like this, and he stood like a monkey......

"......" Xiao Zheng Ming scratched his head a little embarrassedly, and smiled a little embarrassed and pulled his hand back from Li Sheng. But Li Sheng was still holding on to the air there.

"Hey, are you going to leave your uncle?" Seeing that the stupid boy was still stunned, Li Wanquan suddenly became angry, and reprimanded him a little angrily.

"......" Li Sheng was speechless, only froze there with a gloomy face.

"It's really his uncle's ......" Seeing this, Li Wanquan scolded angrily, and then turned around and left here with a big wave of his hand: "Let's go!"

"Okay—" Li Wanquan responded, and the other members of the hunting team who were smiling and watching here also followed one after another.

"Hey, old man, you wait for me!" Seeing this, Li Sheng suddenly shouted in a hurry, and then ran over with big strides.

"Ziming, let's go, let's be angry, we can't be left behind and careless!" Before he could take two steps, Li Sheng turned around and shouted at Xiao Zhengming.

"Oh......" Xiao Zheng Ming scratched his head a little puzzled, and then first turned around and saluted the other three villagers, and then turned around and ran towards the hunting team.

"Hehe, it's still polite ...... Ziming"

"Ah Sheng, this kid can't be compared, but people, they can't be compared......"

"Hehe......"

The three of them talked and laughed, and when they saw the hunting team walking a short distance, they waved their hands together to see them off, and shouted: "Be careful when you enter the forest, don't be careless!"

"Got it, I'm here, don't worry!" Li Sheng, who was trotting to keep up with the hunting team, waved his hand and responded.

Li Wanquan raised his right hand lightly, and then slapped Li Sheng on the back of the head lightly and heavily, slapping Li Sheng, who had just run to his side.

Syllable!

After a slap, Li Wanquan locked Li Sheng's neck again, and dragged Li Sheng to his side forcefully, and then raised his left hand high and waved.

In this process, Li Sheng struggled and slapped several times, but finally lost his temper.

At this time, Xiao Zheng Ming had just joined the team.

The group gradually drifted away......
