Seeing the contents of the three small bowls Song Qiyun placed on the table, and smelling the smell emanating from those bowls, Qin Zheng's face suddenly became very ugly. He swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva, turned his head and stared. Song Qiyun and Xia Jiu.
The group of people present had never seen such a ferocious Qin Zheng. The brothers Song Qiyun and Xia Jiu who faced him directly were frightened to the point of breaking out in cold sweats, but they still pretended to be calm and looked at Qin Zheng, pretending to be angry. Come as if you are not afraid at all.
"Hey, these two boys are quite capable. They just hit my uncle's weakness." Xue Ruitian stretched his neck and glanced at the things on the table, pulled Jin Jing back a few steps, and said in a low voice, " Let’s stay away, we may not know what will happen soon!”
"What do you mean?" Jin Jing was confused by what Xue Ruitian said, "Isn't this just mixed with celery? I also added a little coriander and sesame paste, and it smells quite fragrant. If I add some vinegar, it can be done directly. It’s time for dipping!”
"You think it's delicious, but my uncle hates these kinds of food. He usually eats mutton soup pot without any dipping sauce." Xue Ruitian lowered his voice and said, "After all, it is As a young master from a rich family, it’s normal to be picky about food. We also have things we don’t like to eat, right?”
"The most we don't like is to move it aside and not look at it. We won't be like him. Looking at this dipping sauce is like looking at an enemy, right? Also, look at how shaken our two county princes are. , is almost a sieve, and you are still pretending that you are not afraid!" Jin Jing rubbed her face, "I don't blame the two county princes, the deputy commander is still very scary. He looked at me like this at night. You’ll definitely have nightmares, right?”
"No!" Xue Ruitian raised his eyebrows, "We have rarely seen him like this. In my impression, I saw him once or twice when I was very young, and he just came back from the battlefield."
"It seems that such a thing happened, but I don't remember it for a long time." Jin Jing shook her head, "But now I understand a little bit why the foreigners in Liao and Jin are afraid of him. They don't need to do anything at all to be looked at by him like this. I'm about to kneel down." He looked at Qin Zheng, who was still staring at the three small bowls. "These children are really brave. They dare to tease the deputy commander like this. I'm not afraid that he will find fault. ?A few days ago, Xiaoyun was worried that he would not be able to pass the exam for the seventh grade of junior high school, and he would forget about serious things when he started teasing others? If the deputy commander makes things difficult for him, there is nothing he can do. "
"I did this just because I knew my uncle wouldn't make things difficult for him. Moreover, this was obviously not caused by these children. They had basically never had much contact with my uncle before, and they had no idea that he liked to eat. What, what don’t you like to eat? It was only when my uncle came back this time that we gradually became familiar with each other, but it was just a familiarity, far from being an understanding!" Xue Ruitian raised his eyebrows, "If I am not wrong, , one of the people who came up with this idea was Xiaocha, and the other was Uncle Yan. Moreover, I estimate that most of the ideas came from Uncle Yan. He is the person who knows my uncle best, which is why my uncle has not gotten angry for a long time. "
"That's it! Hey, hey, Xiaotian, look!" Jin Jing patted Xue Ruitian's arm and raised her chin, "Uncle Yan is out."
Jin Jing saw Uncle Yan, and Qin Zheng naturally saw it too. She even raised her head the moment Uncle Yan opened the door, put away her fierce look, and replaced her with a very gentle look. .
Qin Zheng's aggressive gaze finally disappeared. Song Qiyun and Xia Jiu breathed a sigh of relief. They stood slightly to the side, creating the illusion of surviving the disaster. Like Jin Jing, the two of them finally understood why those foreigners were so afraid of Qin Zheng. For a moment just now, they all felt that they would be killed by Qin Zheng's gaze.
Qin Zheng and Yan Bo looked at each other for a long time. He sighed softly, walked to the small table, picked up the small bowl in the middle, picked up the spoon, and ate the contents bit by bit. He put down the small bowl in his hand and picked up the second bowl. However, before he could eat it, Uncle Yan snatched it away.
"Okay, let's end it here!" Uncle Yan put the small bowl back on the table, took out his handkerchief and wiped Qin Zheng's mouth, "It's a cold day, don't waste time outside, come inside to warm up Get warm!"
After saying that, he pulled Qin Zheng into the house first.
Shen Haolin and Shen Cha were already standing at the door when Uncle Yan pushed the door open. When they saw Qin Zheng coming in, they saluted him.
"Did you come up with this bad idea?" When Qin Zheng passed by Shen Cha, he pointed at her, "You are the only one who came up with this idea!"
"Master, happy events always have to be more lively. You can't be as serious as before, right? If master is unhappy, I will apologize to you!" Shen Cha smiled at Qin Zheng and pretended to apologize. The movement was stopped by Qin Zheng.
"Okay, I just said it casually, don't take it seriously." Qin Zheng waved to Li Yu, Zhang Jing and Mo Kai, and stuffed a big red envelope for each of them, "Thank you for your hard work today. A few unreliable brothers and sisters are messing around."
"Master, we are not fooling around anymore!" Shen Cha looked at the plum trees and plum bamboos, "Go and make a pot of hot tea. Add more ginger juice."
"Sister Miaomiao brought it over just now, and it's still hot now!" Mei Lin and Mei Zhu saw everyone entering the room, carrying a big teapot and pouring a cup of tea for everyone, "Deputy Commander-in-Chief, You look very handsome today!"
"Aren't you usually handsome?" Qin Zheng took the tea cup and smiled at Mei Lin and Mei Zhu, "You two have worked hard too!"
"No hard work, no hard work, this is what we should do."
Qin Zheng took a sip of hot tea and turned to look at Song Qiyun and Xia Jiu, "Two county princes, did you scare you just now?"
"A little bit!" Song Qiyun stretched out two fingers and gestured a little. He looked at Qin Zheng, then looked at Uncle Yan who was sitting side by side with Qin Zheng, and sighed, "You two really deserved it at that time. Beautiful uncles!" He looked at Jin Jing, "Our almighty military advisor, can you please draw a full-length portrait of these two beautiful uncles?"
"Of course, it's my honor!" Because Xue Ruitian and Shen Cha had said such things before, Jin Jing had already been prepared. He took the drawing board that he had left at Mei Zhu's place and sat opposite Qin Zheng and Yan Bo. "Because time is tight, I can only make a draft first. The other steps will have to be completed slowly after I go back. This painting will be handed over to you two in three days." He quickly drew on the paper. Lines were outlined on it, "Just think of it as my congratulatory gift!"
"Thanks!"
Jin Jing is indeed the all-powerful strategist among the people of the Shen family. In just one cup of tea, the images of Qin Zheng and Yan Bo appeared vividly on the drawing paper. The three children were watching the whole process, their eyes widened. Yes, with a big mouth, he looked at the drawing paper with a shocked face, and then looked at Jin Jing with admiration, and instantly felt that his image was taller than before.
"Okay, the foundation has been laid, and all that's left is coloring!" Jin Jing turned the drawing board to everyone, "Master Deputy Commander, Uncle Yan, take a look, are there any areas that need to be modified? If so, If so, I can change it now."
"No!" Qin Zheng and Yan Bo shook their heads at the same time, "The painting is very good, it is lifelike!"
"Thank you for the compliment!" Jin Jing wrapped the drawing board and gave it to Mei Zhu, asking her to send it back to her yard. Then, he walked to the door and looked at the sky outside. "It's almost time. We can go to the Nuan Pavilion." He patted the three children and said, "Put on your cloaks. You go at the front. The deputy commander and Uncle Yan will follow. Behind three kids, we’re behind you.”
"Okay!" Qin Zheng and Yan Bo nodded at the same time, "Let's go!"
The small courtyard where we temporarily settled was not too far from Nuan Pavilion. We arrived within a short walk. The generals who were invited to attend the family banquet, as well as their guards and shadows were all dressed in costumes and stood in a row under the eaves. Platoon, looks quite impressive.
"Coming, coming!" Qiao Zi adjusted his clothes, "Listen to my command!" Seeing Qin Zheng and Yan Bo approaching, he shouted, "Salute!"
Following Qiao Zi's order, everyone gave Qin Zheng and Yan Bo a fist salute. The guards standing on both sides of the door pushed open the door of Nuange and respectfully invited the two protagonists in today.
Qin Zheng and Yan Bo's seats were opposite the door of Nuan Pavilion. There was a vase on the table with several delicate wintersweet flowers in it.
"It's quite interesting!" After Yan Bo sat down, he raised his head and looked at the palace lanterns on the roof, then looked at the brand-new small table and cushions, and said with a smile, "The decoration is very good, I like it very much." He turned to Qin Zheng and asked, "What about you?"
"I like it too!" Qin Zheng nodded and saw that everyone was seated, including the guards and shadows. He picked up the wine bottle placed next to him and filled the glasses for himself and Uncle Yan. , the two people raised their glasses and said sincerely, "Thank you for planning such a surprise for us today and fulfilling our two biggest wishes in this life."
Shen Haolin led Shen Cha, Xue Ruitian, and Jin Jing to stand up, raised their glasses and returned the favor to the two elderly people, drank the glass of wine in their hands, and those who did not drink drank the tea in the glasses, and then sat down again. .
"Hiss, Jin Miaomiao!" Xue Ruitian looked at the wine glass with a look of disgust, then took another bottle of wine and smelled it, "It's a very good wine, why are you adding water to it?"
"Don't you still have work to do in the evening? I'm afraid you guys drank too much!" Jin Miaomiao, who was named, told the kitchen helper waiting aside to serve the food, and replied to Xue Ruitian, "Besides, the deputy commander has just recovered. , and you can't drink too much wine. Since it's not convenient for everyone to drink too much wine, and today's occasion requires drinking, the only way is to add water to the wine." Jin Miaomiao raised an eyebrow. , "I think this wine is still very good. Even if it is mixed with water, it still tastes good."
"That's good!" Uncle Yan spoke up to help Jin Miaomiao, "Old Qin is recovering from a serious illness now, and the medicine has not been stopped. According to my wishes, it would be good to give him a glass of plain water." He Looking at the small mutton soup pot brought in by the chefs, he pointed at Qin Zheng and asked, "Miao Miao, can Lao Qin eat it?"
"It's okay to eat less mutton and more vegetables and frozen tofu." Jin Miaomiao stood up and walked outside the noodle house. The assistant chef handed over a large tray full of dumplings. "At noon, I had already made the dumplings and left them outside to freeze all afternoon." She walked to Qin Zheng and Yan Bo first, "You two, you can't eat too much at night. How about six of each?"
"Let's get six for the two of us. There's so much mutton, vegetables, and frozen tofu, it's enough!" Qin Zheng nodded, "It's a waste if you give us too much and we can't eat it."
"Okay!" Jin Miaomiao put six dumplings into the empty plate, "I don't know if they will break if they are frozen like this and cooked in a pot."
"It will be pierced even if it's not broken, don't worry!" Uncle Yan smiled at Jin Miaomiao and served Qin Zheng a bowl of mutton soup, "Drink some soup first."
While Shen Haolin was serving soup to Shen Cha, he looked at Uncle Yan and Qin Zheng who were sitting at the main table, "When are you going to get that thing?"
"Wait until you're almost done eating, then find an excuse to go out." Shen Cha moved closer to Shen Haolin. Seeing that the mutton in the pot was cooked, he picked up a chopstick and put it into Shen Haolin's bowl, "I heard that Brother Xiaotian I also prepared a very mysterious gift.”
"Where did you hear this?" Shen Haolin raised his eyebrows and gave Shen Cha a mouthful of lamb wrapped in dipping sauce, "How does it taste?"
"The tribute mutton is naturally the best." Shen Cha nodded and saw Jin Miaomiao coming over with a tray, "If you don't hurry up and eat, why are you wandering back and forth? I'll let Seventeen and Eighteen take your place. "
"Stop messing around!" Jin Miaomiao stopped Shen Cha, "I've been smelling the mutton soup pot in the dining room for a long time, and I have no appetite at all. I have to slow down before I can eat it!"
"This is a normal reaction." Shen Haolin nodded and took six dumplings from the tray, "Many cooks say so."
"By the way, what gifts have you prepared?" Jin Miaomiao asked in a low voice, "I asked my brother and Sha Tian'er, but they didn't tell me."
"How can they tell you if they don't know?" Shen Cha stuffed a piece of radish into Jin Miaomiao's mouth, "I won't tell you either. You will know when the time comes and it will definitely surprise you."
"Okay, I'm just waiting for your surprise!" Jin Miaomiao took another piece of radish and moved to the table next to Song Qiyun and Xia Jiu.
After eating for almost half an hour, Shen Cha watched the generals headed by Qiao Zi and their lieutenants begin to toast Qin Zheng and Yan Bo in turn. She felt that the time had come, so she whispered something into Shen Haolin's ear. sentence.
"Be careful!" Shen Haolin put a cloak on Shen Cha and put on his hat, "It's cold outside, go back quickly and ask Seventeen and Eighteen to follow you!"
"Stop following me, there's too much noise, I'll be back in a minute!"
Shen Cha stood up, looked left and right, and ran away quietly while everyone's attention was on her master.
