Chapter 395 Chai Jin: Am I going to die? 【Ask for monthly ticket】
“This chicken feet is amazing!”
On the high-speed train, Li Yu ate various braised snacks packed from Linji and found that the dishes blessed by the Chef God system were delicious.
Especially the tiger skin chicken feet, which is said to be the earliest braised dish launched by Lin Kee Food. It has been popular for a long time and is sold out every day.
Wearing disposable gloves, Zhou Ruotong carefully opened a rabbit head and ate the dense-tasting rabbit brain:
"Fortunately, I don't stay in the capital very often, otherwise I would definitely gain weight."
Li Yu pinched a boneless duck paw and fed it to Tong Baobao's mouth:
"You still have a vest line now, so you don't have to worry about your figure at all."
While I was eating, the cell phone next to me rang.
When he saw it was his mother calling, he quickly took off his gloves and chose to answer:
"Mom, we haven't arrived in Baoding yet, can't you wait?"
Zhang Ping had just replaced all the bedding at home with new ones and bought a lot of daily necessities... Even if she only stayed for one night, she couldn't just make do. She had to treat her daughter-in-law to the highest standards.
She said to Li Yu:
"I originally wanted to eat at home, but your dad felt that it was too noisy. If someone smoked again, the smell would not go away for a long time, so he booked a private room at the restaurant at the entrance of the community. The two of us chose the dishes together... You really The taste is the same as Tongtong? You’re not telling lies to cheat people out of food, right?”
My dear mother, did you know that Professor Zhou was listening, so you deliberately said this to please your daughter-in-law?
Li Yu spit out the chicken bones in his mouth into the garbage bag and then said:
"It's true. Tongtong and I are a perfect match. We have exactly the same hobbies... By the way, in order to earn face for you, she specially prepared gifts for all her relatives."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Ping quickly said:
"There is no need to prepare gifts. Instead, the relatives here have to prepare greeting gifts... You kid, too. If you don't stop me, Tongtong will spend money."
Li Yu smiled and said:
"Just take it for you... Your daughter-in-law wants to say a few words. You two can chat while I go get a cup of hot water."
Li Yu handed the phone to Professor Zhou, then took out the thermos cup given by his father-in-law, and poured the Biluochun given by Zhou Bingshan into the tea grid. He first washed the tea leaves with some hot water, poured it out and refilled the water. The fragrance of the tea spread immediately. Come.
"Tsk, the tea the professor drinks is indeed different!"
He returned to his seat with the tea cup. Zhou Ruotong was still talking to Zhang Ping, smiling as if they were mother and daughter and he was just a son-in-law.
Alas, Professor Zhou can always pull people into her camp, which is amazing. Fortunately, we are in the same group.
After hanging up the phone, Li Yu handed over the tea cup:
"Drink tea to relieve tiredness, and there is a big meal in the evening. I have eaten all the delicious food in the past few days."
Zhou Ruotong took a sip of tea, nodded and said:
"Go back and eat vegetarian food for a while. After I finish arranging the work at hand, I will take Xiaochan out to play, and I will stay at home and do my business."
"Don't worry, besides being busy with business, I just miss you."
Fortunately, the Queen's household registration has not yet been completed. Otherwise, if these three people all leave, wouldn't we be alone?
He put on the disposable gloves again, turned his depression into appetite, and continued to eat the snacks prepared by Lin Xu.
Zhou Ruotong took two sips of tea, turned on the tablet and started studying.
The whole carriage is very quiet.
At around four o'clock in the afternoon, the young couple arrived at the Provincial City East Station, pulled their suitcases to the exit, and saw their father Li Jianxin and mother Zhang Ping waiting here.
The couple wore new clothes, brought two cups of milk tea, and held a bouquet of flowers, looking very solemn.
When Zhou Ruotong came out of the gate, Zhang Ping quickly sent the flowers over:
"Welcome Tongtong to my home. I don't know what kind of flowers you like, so I randomly matched them. I hope you won't dislike it."
You can even grow peach trees in the underworld. Does this mean you don’t understand flowers?
Li Yu complained about his mother. Just as he was about to take the milk tea and take a sip, Zhang Ping snatched it away:
"This belongs to me and Tongtong. You get in the car and drink boiled water. How can a grown man drink this?"
Li Yu: "..."
In the capital, I was a very polite uncle to all my relatives, but when I returned to my own home, I was no longer a human being... Could it be that Baby Tong and I had the wrong baby?
Arriving at the parking lot, Li Yu saw his shiny Camry.
My father has been frugal all his life, and he also adheres to the principle of fuel economy and durability when buying cars. Li Yu proposed to buy a new car more than once, but his father always refused because he was used to driving.
After putting the suitcase away, Li Yu opened the car door and found that the car was spotless:
"Hey, has it been washed inside too?"
"At noon, your dad spent more than five hundred to find someone to clean it, which saved him a lifetime. When he heard that he was going to pick up his daughter-in-law, he chose the most expensive package and kept an eye on it the whole time, for fear that it wouldn't be clean."
When Zhou Ruotong heard this, he quickly thanked:
"Thank you uncle for your trouble."
"It's too late to say this. Let's go home."
After getting on the bus, Li Jianxin drove his family away from the high-speed rail station and arrived at a clean community near the convention and exhibition center.
At that time, this area was still a wheat field and could not be sold for thousands of square meters. However, Lao Li, who was in the design institute, seized the opportunity and bought a four-bedroom apartment of 150 square meters. Now the price per square meter has increased to more than 20,000. It was a mistake.
When he came home, Li Yu looked at the brand-new bedding and furniture in his room, and felt as if he had entered the wrong room:
"Isn't this too grand for you?"
Zhang Ping said angrily:
"If you do it yourself, it will still be the same old thing in ten years, but Tongtong will naturally have to get a new one."
Okay, you guys can have a kiss as a family, and I won’t bother you.
Li Yu came to the spacious balcony and saw the peach branch planted in the flowerpot.
Different from the shriveled ones last time, the peach branch now has two or three branches, and the longest one has five or six leaves.
According to this growth rate, by the time of transplanting in autumn and winter, the prototype of a small tree will have grown... Mom is really a gardening expert who was delayed by the dentist!
After looking at the little peach tree, he went to see the clay sculpture made by his mother and placed it nicely in the couple's room.
In order to avoid attracting dust, the old couple even bought a display cabinet for figures and put two clay sculptures in the cabinet. They were very delicate!
Li Yu came to his father's computer and looked at the design drawings of the Human Race's Hall of Sages.
The overall style of the Xianxian Hall is the architectural style of the Shang and Zhou Dynasties, but some architectural details of the Qin and Han Dynasties are added. The decoration is mainly red and black, which not only reflects the grandeur of the Xianxian Hall, but also implies the mainstream colors.
As for the statues inside, they include a series of human sages such as the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, Zhu Rong Gonggong, Hou Yi Shooting the Sun, etc.
After Li Yu read it, he thought the renderings were very good, so he asked his father to take the time to prepare the construction drawings and courier them to Yinzhou.
Once the drawings are obtained, Zi Shou is asked to break ground in Chaoge City and start building the Human Race Sage Pavilion.
The world of gods does not require much technological equipment. The group of gods alone can handle everything.
After reading the drawings, Zhou Ruotong opened his suitcase and took out the gifts he bought for his parents-in-law.
What was given to Zhang Ping was a Hermès bag, a scarf made of gold brocade, shoes and cosmetics, etc. It was all very complete, and Zhang Ping was so happy that she couldn't open her mouth from ear to ear.
As for Li Jianxin, he has a top-notch laptop with commonly used design software installed. He also has a Montblanc commemorative pen with a 24K gold nib to distinguish it from his relatives’ Parker Century.
Zhou Bingren also asked his daughter to give a purple clay teapot made by Gu Jingzhou. When he saw the price on the appraisal book, Lao Li's hands shook and he almost lost his grip:
"Isn't this... this too expensive?"
"Just keep it. My dad said that when he is not busy during the summer vacation, he will go to Yinzhou to stay for a few days and then meet you and talk in detail."
"Okay, okay, it would be great if the in-laws can come. We would like to give you a warm welcome. We haven't taken off the annual vacation yet, so we will go to a B\u0026B for a few days together."
Li Yu took some tea and asked Lao Li:
"Would you like to try this purple clay teapot against the Tieguanyin teapot?"
Old Li glared:
"Using such an expensive teapot to make tea? Isn't that a waste of money? Change it quickly. The relatives are coming soon. Don't let them wait too long."
Li Yu and Zhou Ruotong went back to their room, changed their clothes, and left the house with the gifts prepared for everyone.
When walking out of the unit building, Zhou Ruotong took the initiative to hold her mother-in-law's arm, which made Zhang Ping so happy that she lost her way. She walked around the community for a long time before going out. Everyone praised her for finding a good daughter-in-law.
I came to a well-known restaurant in the provincial capital outside the community. As soon as I entered the private room, several relatives came.
Everyone exchanged pleasantries for a while, and when everyone arrived, the waiter began to serve the dishes.
Zhou Ruotong took out gifts and distributed them to everyone, which made all the relatives extremely happy. They kept praising Li Yu for his vision, exaggerating Ping's good fortune, and praising Lao Li for educating such a promising child like Li Yu.
When the dishes were served, Lao Li opened two bottles of Moutai that he had treasured for many years and shared them with his relatives.
If you are happy today, naturally you have to drink the best wine.
After everyone had finished drinking and eating, Zhang Ping took Zhou Ruotong's hand and said:
"I just checked the price and found out that the pen cost tens of thousands of yuan, and the scarf is not cheap either, it's too expensive..."
Zhou Ruotong said:
"We are not around. If we need help with anything, our relatives can at least help."
"Okay, listen to Tongtong. When you get home, I'll boil you some peach gum to replenish your qi and blood."
Back upstairs, the family sat in the living room and chatted for a while. After drinking the peach gum stewed by Zhang Ping, they went back to their rooms to rest.
The next morning, after having a hearty breakfast at home, Li Yu and Zhou Ruotong went to the high-speed rail station and took the bus back to Yinzhou, successfully ending their trip to visit relatives.
Arriving at Yinzhou High-speed Railway Station, Wu Song, who came to pick him up, asked:
"When is Brother Li going to get engaged?"
"It's coming soon, it should be before the Mid-Autumn Festival...Is everything okay here?"
"Everything is normal and everyone is fine. Marquis Wen has joined Li Yan and arrived in Chang'an. Xun You is organizing troops to prepare for the attack on Hedong. Chang'an City has begun to promote the use of coal stoves and briquettes."
Wu Song started his X5 and introduced the current situation of each world in the book while driving.
The Three Kingdoms side has already mobilized troops to prepare for the attack on Hedong. It is said that the advance reconnaissance troops have already set off, and preliminary hydrological surveys have been carried out in the area where the pontoon bridge is to be laid.
The water level of the Yellow River has dropped significantly recently, making it easier to build floating bridges.
It is said that the Hedong side is also actively preparing for war. Zuoxian Wang Yufuluo and Bai Bo's army have robbed a lot of people's food and are still recruiting troops everywhere. It seems that they are going to fight the imperial army to the end.
Water Margin said that over at Yue Shijie, Liu Bei, under the banner of Fan Xingping, had taken back all the counties under the jurisdiction of Zhending Mansion, and was holding a grievance meeting, preparing to uncover the bullies who had done evil in the city.
When the people returned home, they organized people to dig canals, build roads, and carry out infrastructure construction through work-for-relief methods.
The spies from Qilin Village will also go deep into Handan City to prepare for the subsequent capture of the city.
In the world of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, construction of the pass in the back mountain of Fengming Village has begun. After the construction is completed, the entire Fengming Village will not only be impregnable, but also have tens of thousands of acres of arable land, making it absolutely self-sufficient.
Over in Fengshen World, the autumn harvest is completely over, and the planting of winter wheat is also proceeding in an orderly manner.
In order to pursue merit, more and more immortals joined the Shang Dynasty as officials. Wen Zhong also specially found a few upright immortals to serve as visiting envoys, responsible for assessing the performance of officials from various places during their term of office.
Once there is any behavior that violates laws and disciplines and harms the people, they will be immediately demoted to common people and investigated and dealt with in accordance with the law.
With this assessment measure in place, officials from all over the country have become honest and self-disciplined, trying their best to do good things for the people.
As the car turned onto the Ring Expressway, Li Yu asked Wu Song:
“Has the pontoon you ordered arrived?”
"We're here. The assault boats and speedboats have all been delivered. I saw someone selling water cannons, so I bought a few. If they work well, they can be used in the water village in the future."
Water cannons are high-speed water pumps that can shoot high-pressure water jets hundreds of meters away. They are very powerful. When encountering water troops, one sweep can overturn the opponent's small wooden boat.
Li Yu said:
"We can find someone to customize it later, and it will be even more powerful."
When we arrived at the B\u0026B, as soon as we got off the bus, Mu Guiying ran over to greet her enthusiastically:
"Sister Zhou, you have a hard time riding in the car. Fairy Xiaochan and I caught a pot of crabs and gave Sister Zhou a break at noon!"
"Okay, thank you Guiying!"
After moving the suitcase upstairs, Li Yu searched around the stairs and found that Gouzi was not there. After checking the surveillance camera, he discovered that this guy had actually gone to Longqishan again.
He will have to interrogate him when he comes back later and ask why he doesn't have a system... Li Yu came to the back door of the warehouse and saw piles of pontoons piled on the ground. He felt that the battle in Hedong was stable.
However, there is only so much equipment for three pontoon bridges. If we move to a place with a larger water area, we may need more supplies to build a pontoon bridge.
Li Yu looked at the list of supplies and made sure they were all there, and then he felt relieved.
Back upstairs at the B\u0026B, she saw Diao Chan wearing casual shorts and a T-shirt, studying high school knowledge by herself in the study.
"If you don't relax after the exam, why start studying again?"
"Lele said that if you learn high school knowledge in advance, it is possible to go to college early, so I want to give it a try, graduate early, and help my husband work early."
Why do you make me look like a shameless capitalist?
Li Yu said:
"Don't be so anxious. Even if you finish high school knowledge ahead of schedule, you still have to take the college entrance examination... Did the Lele you mentioned go to college ahead of schedule?"
"Yes, she was admitted to the Tsinghua University Intelligent Classroom and did not take the college entrance examination."
Li Yu:? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
Be good, do top students attract each other?
The little girl went to the capital to see the world for two days, and unexpectedly met a top student who was recommended to Tsinghua University, and was also a top student with a reputation for high IQ. She was convinced!
Diao Chan tilted her head and asked:
"Sir, if I am recommended in the future, do you think I should choose Tsinghua University or Peking University?"
I gave up thinking about this question in the third grade of elementary school... Li Yu felt that the head of the family should answer it. We are just a little scumbag, so we should not show it here.
"I'll ask your sister Zhou later. She should know how to choose. I don't have the ability, so I won't comment... What do you want to eat for lunch? I'll make it for you."
"Crabs, all the crabs we caught were fried. Some classmates will come to take photos in Hanfu. I have to entertain everyone."
Li Yu agreed and left the study.
As soon as he went out, Mu Guiying swooped over and hung on Li Yu like an octopus again.
But this time, she made a new discovery:
"Eh? Why aren't your legs weak?"
"I have been exercising frequently recently and my physical fitness has increased... Is your sister Zhou going to work?"
"Yes, I drove your car away and said I would come back during lunch. I heard that Fairy Xiaochan's classmates are here to play and asked you to cook a few more dishes that girls like."
Looking at the girl's hopeful eyes, Li Yu asked with a smile:
"I'm going to start cooking now, how about you help me taste the food to make sure it's done?"
"Ha, I knew you weren't sure. Let's go and see if I can capture the formation for you!"
At noon, Diao Chan entertained the classmates who came to the B\u0026B in the small private room. Everyone was wearing Hanfu and took a lot of photos. She was eating while looking through the photo album, preparing to pick out the good-looking ones to post on social platforms. .
Li Yu placed a portion of Coke chicken wings and a plate of cherry meat on the dining table and said to the little girls:
"Everyone eat more, and if you want to eat anything else, just tell me. We have everything at our B\u0026B."
After leaving the private room, he asked Mu Guiying:
"How about the chicken wings?"
“Perfect, super delicious!”
While everyone was enjoying a delicious lunch, a lively banquet was also going on at the Water Margin and Yue World, Cangzhou Chaijia Manor.
"Brother Shi and Dao Qiao have come a long way, Xiao Ke goes first out of respect!"
Chai Jin held a jade wine bowl with a gold rim and drank two ounces of high-strength liquor in one gulp.
Since the last time we left Cangzhou, good news about Qilin Village has continued to come.
Annihilating Zengtou City, wreaking havoc in Tokyo City, uprooting Cross Slope, setting fire to Happy Forest, defeating the Liangshan Army, and seizing the Zhending Mansion... one after another, Chai Jin's blood boiled with excitement and he wished he could take off his brocade robe. Fight with everyone.
After drinking for three rounds, Chai entered the screen and retreated to the left and right. He lowered his voice and asked Shi Xiu and Qiao Daoqing:
"You two are here in a hurry. Could it be that the emperor's uncle has something to call you?"
Qiao Daoqing nodded:
"There is indeed something for you to go to Zhending Mansion...Since Mr. Chai is interested in the Intelligence Department, are you willing to join in?"
"Yes, I'm so willing. I really didn't expect Brother Xiao Yi and others to be so powerful. Are you satisfied with following Brother Shi Xiu to kill them?"
Shi Xiu chuckled:
"This time I want to recruit you to join the Intelligence Department, go undercover in Daliao together, and do some things there... Is Mr. Chai willing?"
Chai Jin became even more excited after hearing this:
"I wish you could, how about we leave tomorrow?"
Qiao Daoqing took a mouthful of food and put it into his mouth, and said slowly:
"No, we have to wait first."
"What are you waiting for?"
"Wait until you die!"
