Chapter 689 Qiong Xiao: I Understand, My Brother-in-Law Is Not in Good Health! [Seeking Monthly Votes]

Early in the morning, Li Yu came back from running. Mu Guiying had just gotten up and was sitting in the pavilion, browsing online shopping pages while waiting for breakfast.

It was a bit cold today. She put on the hood of her pullover and looked like she was asleep from a distance.

Li Yu walked over and asked:

"Are you still asleep?"

"I woke up early. I plan to buy a few sets of winter clothes. They don't need to be too formal, as long as they are comfortable...Does my husband have any good suggestions?"

Li Yu said:

"Just pick cotton home clothes, or search for winter pajamas. There are a lot of them online, and they are not expensive. Now even prisoners wear such pajamas during trial, which is quite funny."

Mu Guiying tried to search and found several cartoon-style clothes:

"It feels more suitable for Little Cicada Fairy, but since there is a Pikachu version, I will buy two sets of critically, and buy two sets of Venom version for Little Cicada Fairy by the way. She wears so many sets of her clothes, so I have to give her a symbolic return gift."

Li Yu: "..."

The clothes that Baby Cicada buys you are all cute things like Minions, Pikachu, and Little Yellow Duck. You buy her dark style like Venom, right?

Li Yu sat down and asked Mu Guiying:

"What do you think is a good meal for Xiaochan to go home in the afternoon?"

Today is Friday, the day when Baby Chan goes home, so I have to cook a few more dishes in the evening to reward the only student in the family.

Mu Guiying rested her head on Li Yu's shoulder and said while placing an order:

"Your wife actually asked me that you, my husband, are not a good husband... Or we can just eat baked buns with vegetables. After I sent the message yesterday, Xiaochan Fairy must have been craving for it, so I can make up for it once."

I don't know if Diaochan wants to eat it, but Mu Guiying didn't eat enough, so she gave this suggestion.

Li Yu thought this was a good idea, but he had to cook a few more dishes to satisfy the little girl's craving.

After buying clothes, Mu Guiying and Li Yu came to the restaurant and started to eat breakfast, then went back to deal with things in the village, and came back in the evening to take advantage of Xiaochan Fairy's welcoming banquet.

She served herself a large bowl of eight-treasure porridge and added two spoonfuls of sugar:

"What are you going to do today, my husband?"

"Take your sister Yunxiao for a walk and pick up Xiaochan in the evening."

"Don't forget to buy some delicious food for the weak, pitiful and helpless me."

"Don't worry, I will never forget you when I have delicious food."

After breakfast, Mu Guiying brought some food to Li Fengyang and hurried back.

Li Yu drove to the city and met Zhou Ruotong and Yunxiao who were having breakfast in a time-honored flat noodle restaurant.

He sat down, picked up a piece of fried cake and tasted it:

"Why didn't you go to eat Cantonese breakfast?"

Zhou Ruotong said:

"Yunxiao wanted to see the diet of the locals in Yinzhou, so I brought her here... This flat noodle restaurant has been around for decades, right?"

Li Yu nodded:

"It is indeed a time-honored brand. I often came here when I was a child. It was very cheap at that time, but now it has increased many times."

Yunxiao likes this kind of smoky place very much. People of all kinds come here, order a flat noodle dish, and eat it happily with fried cakes, starting a busy and fulfilling day.

There is a meeting at the Cultural Relics Bureau today. After Zhou Ruotong finished eating, he went directly to the meeting. Li Yu paid the money and came to the outside of the breakfast shop. He looked at Yunxiao and said:

"This dress is good, it matches your temperament very well."

Today, Yunxiao wore a more fashionable long coat, a slim sweater inside, dark shark pants and flat boots underneath, beautiful and cool, very similar to Professor Zhou.

But Professor Zhou is a bit colder, with a strong aura, and people dare not approach him.

Yunxiao is very friendly. She looks like a graceful big sister next door, especially her long legs, which made Li Yu soon suffer from the medically difficult "leg obsession".

Yunxiao adjusted his collar and said:

"My sister took new clothes from the closet for me, and told me to be brave to try and not stick to a single style."

Li Yu responded:

"Yes, don't learn from her. She is a cold-faced queen. You can try different styles of clothing... I will try JK later, with leg rings, I think it is very good."

Such a pair of charming long legs, it is a bit regrettable not to try leg rings.

Yunxiao asked:

"What is that?"

"Well, you will know later. I just ate. Where are you going to play? I can accompany you all the way."

He planned to watch a movie and enjoy the city life, but Yunxiao did not want to stay in the city. Instead, he wanted to see the entire Red Flag Canal Scenic Area.

When Li Yu heard this, he drove to buy a pair of sneakers first, then drove to the scenic spot and had an in-depth tour with Yunxiao.

At noon, the two had lunch at a farmer's house in the mountains.

They were lucky and caught up with the farmer's slaughtering of pigs and making bacon. They had a delicious meal of slaughtering pigs. Li Yu also helped to press the pigs and was very busy.

During the meal, Yunxiao asked:

"It's still early in the twelfth lunar month, why are you making bacon so early?"

Li Yu chewed the crispy bones and said:

"As soon as the weather turned cold, they started making bacon. Although winter is not the peak tourist season, people who come to play like to try the local specialties and consume a lot of meat."

However, it is generally not called bacon in Yinzhou, and the method is different from the smoked bacon in the southwest.

Here, it is spread with pepper salt, marinated first, and then hung up to dry. This way it tastes better and can be preserved for a long time without spoiling.

Before leaving, the two bought some pecans, red persimmons, a bundle of mountain chives, and some wild vegetables that were not available near Fengming Valley.

At 4:30 in the afternoon, Li Yu drove to the vicinity of the Moral Education Bilingual School to pick up the little girl.

Yunxiao was holding a cup of 70% sugar bubble taro milk tea. On the way here, she heard that Diao Chan liked milk tea, so she asked Li Yu to buy it at the milk tea shop.

Worried that the temperature would drop over time, she also asked the store to add an insulation bag.

At this time, there were parents coming to pick up their children around, and the school gate was blocked.

Li Yu and Yunxiao went against the flow of people to the school gate and saw Diao Chan standing inside the gate.

The little girl was wearing a hoodie, school uniform jacket, and a pink woolen hat. When she saw Li Yu, she quickly stretched out her white and tender little hand and waved, then rushed out of the school gate with her suitcase:

"You are finally here. I thought you forgot me."

Li Yu took her suitcase and said:

"Silly girl, I can forget anyone but our little cutie. Your sister Yunxiao heard that you are a fan of milk tea, so she bought it for you. Try it while it's hot."

Yunxiao handed the milk tea in her hand to Diao Chan:

"I don't know what flavor you like. Try it and see if you like it."

"I like it, I like it very much. Thank you sister Yunxiao. You are so beautiful. Even a woman like me is moved by it."

The little girl skillfully put a straw in the milk tea, took Yunxiao's arm and walked out. Li Yu carried Diao Chan's schoolbag and dragged the suitcase behind.

When they arrived at the car, Diao Chan and Yun Xiao sat in the back seat. They were so affectionate that they looked like sisters who had been separated for a billion years. Li Yu returned to the state of a Didi driver.

He put away his suitcase and drove away from the school. When he passed the vegetable market, he turned in and bought some prawns and mutton, and then went home.

Now that there were no outsiders, the little girl was very lively:

"Husband, I am so thin because of hunger. What are you going to eat tonight?"

"Eat baked buns with vegetables. Your sister Yun Xiao is good at making baked buns with divine power. She can make thousands of them at a time. I guarantee you will enjoy it."

Yun Xiao said:

"I made baked buns yesterday. Today I am going to make the lotus leaf pancakes for eating roast duck. I heard that if it is put in a special small steamer, the pancakes can always stay warm. I don't know if it is true or not."

Li Yu had seen that kind of operation in the roast duck restaurant. A candle was lit under the plate, and the pancakes were indeed always hot.

He said:

"There is no need to make it so complicated for our family, as long as it is delicious."

After returning to the B&B, Li Yu started to cook.

Cut the mutton and make cumin mutton later, which is the little girl's favorite.

Stir-fry another portion of Beijing-style shredded pork. I didn't eat enough last night, so I made more today.

As for the prawns I bought, peel the shrimps, coat them with batter and fry them first, then put them back in the pan to make sweet and sour flavor. The taste is sweet and sour, and the texture is crispy, which will definitely make the ladies at home unable to stop.

While Li Yu was busy doing these, Yunxiao came to the Fengshen World and started making lotus leaf pancakes.

Qiong Xiao, who was teaching the Daluo to fight the tiger in the Internet cafe, sensed that her elder sister had returned and flew to the Sanxiao courtyard:

"Eldest sister, elder sister, why did you go for so long? I thought you didn't want us anymore."

Yun Xiao said:

"I traveled there, which is equivalent to practicing. In a world without divine power, I can feel the wisdom and tenacity of the people more."

Qiong Xiao sat on a stool beside her and asked secretly:

"Eldest sister, you are not pregnant, right?"

This sudden question made Yun Xiao blush:

"What nonsense are you talking about? We...my husband and I haven't reached that stage yet."

Qiong Xiao raised her eyebrows:

"Is it because my brother-in-law is not in good health? I will go to the Western world and ask Junior Brother Lu Yue to prepare a powerful medicine for my brother-in-law...My elder brother said that dragon horns can also strengthen the waist. Bi Xiao has nothing to do recently, so why not let her peel the Dragon King of the East China Sea to help you and my brother-in-law."

Yun Xiao: ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

Good fellow, I haven't been home for a few days, and you two have become so lawless, right?

She waved her hands unhappily:

"Your brother-in-law is fine, we just haven't reached that stage yet. Emotions are not a transaction, they need emotions to set off. What should happen will happen naturally, and it's useless to urge."

Qiong Xiao: "..."

Eldest sister really loves her brother-in-law too much. Even when her brother-in-law is weak, she can make up so many reasons to cover it up... I will tell Junior Sister Gui Ling later and let her write it into the novel.

I will collect five facial masks from Junior Sister Gui Ling at that time. Isn't this reasonable?

Qiongxiao was worried that her thoughts would be discovered by her elder sister, so she quickly changed the subject:

"Eldest sister, what are you doing? Are we going to eat roast duck?"

Yunxiao said:

"Today, Xiaochan will come home from school, so we are going to make pancake rolls to reward her. I will make some for you later."

As she spoke, she took a chicken from outside the city, cut the meat into pieces, and quickly made cumin chicken, sweet and sour chicken slices, fish-flavored chicken shreds, and fried chicken shreds, etc., which were suitable for rolling.

After everything was done, she served a plate of each and put it in a large food box. She also divided one third of the lotus leaf pancakes, told Qiongxiao not to run around, and went to the real world.

As soon as Yunxiao left, Qiongxiao shouted to the outside at the top of her voice:

"It's time to eat. If you come late, you can only lick the plate!"

Before the voice fell, figures flew into the small courtyard and began to enjoy today's delicious meal.

Qiong Xiao originally wanted to announce her Jonderbach conjecture, but she was worried that her brother-in-law's shortcomings would be blown away by her mother, so she wisely did not mention it.

I planned to tell the little turtle spirit in a subtle way after dinner, and emphasized repeatedly:

"This story is purely fictitious. If there are any similarities, please do not take it personally!"

Well, let’s fill up the BUFF first, so that we don’t have to worry about being fooled by my eldest sister’s mother-in-law!

In the real world, Mu Guiying carried two boxes of lotus seed cakes made by the craftsmen in the village and handed them to Diao Chan:

"Congratulations to Fairy Xiaochan for winning the first place in the school in the final exam. This is a little tribute from our Muke village to you."

"Thank you, Sister Guiying, but my score this time is lower than last time."

"Isn't it still number one?"

"Yes, but the total score is low. I feel a little impetuous and regressing recently."

Li Yu, who was busy cooking, couldn't help but say when he heard this:

"How can a scumbag like me live when I get first place and still look sad... If I had to get first place in the school, my parents would have to carry the train back from the provincial capital overnight to celebrate."

Mu Guiying took a piece of freshly fried shrimp and put it into her mouth, and said with a smile:

"You should try to get used to having a bunch of top students like us at home... This shrimp is good, fried to a fragrant and crispy texture, and the inside is quite chewy. I want to eat more later."

When all the dishes are done, Zhou Ruotong gets off work, and everyone eats together.

Mu Guiying liked to eat this kind of transparent cake. She picked up one and put it in front of her mouth. She held a chopstick in her right hand and put the lotus leaf cake in her mouth. The moment she entered the mouth, the dough wrapped the dish firmly. , much better than holding the bag with your hands.

Diao Chan was dumbfounded. She didn't expect Lotus Leaf Cake to have such a speed-running mode.

Li Yu rolled himself a piece of fried chicken with chopsticks and felt that Yunxiao's seasoning was impeccable. Even the taste of the sauce was wonderful, with the richness of dry yellow sauce and the sweetness of sweet noodle sauce.

This kind of taste, combined with the texture of shredded chicken, is more delicious than shredded pork in Beijing sauce.

During the bustling dinner at the B&B, Ma Chao was sitting in Linzi County, eating rolls of meat with the pancakes made from the freshly made kang.

The deputy general who followed asked:

"General, is this the Zibo BBQ you're talking about? It tastes really good, but it's a bit wasteful."

Ma Chao stuffed the rolled pancake into his mouth and took a big bite:

"This is what is written in the information given by the gentleman. It is said that this way of eating is popular in Zibo, which is now Linzi, and it became popular for a while. People from all over the country rushed there. Since we are here, we naturally have to experience it."

After eating and drinking enough, this guy imitated Jia Xu's inscription style, picked up a brush, dipped it full of ink, and left a set of calligraphy on the silk cloth:

“Linzi barbecue is the best in the world!”

We can't just fight, we must also retain some of the style of a Confucian general. In this way, in the evaluation of future generations, maybe our Ma Mengqi, like Zhou Gongjin, is also a Confucian general with a feather fan and silk scarf, and his oars and oars were wiped out in ashes while talking and laughing.

After finishing the inscription, Ma Chao was just about to stay and rest in place, waiting for Xu Rong and others who were eating ashes behind him. But at this moment, the scout caught a detailed work:

"General, this person is sneaking around outside the city, as if he is trying to find out information about our army."

As soon as the scout finished speaking, the man knelt down and begged for mercy:

"General, have mercy on me. I just sent a message for help to my governor. Now Beihai is in danger. Please, general, show mercy and save my governor!"

Ma Chao is interested:

"Who is your governor?"

"Kong Rong and Kong Beihai, my governor originally wanted to rule one area and restore peace to the people, but the Yellow Turbans are powerful and the county of Beihai is in danger. I hope the general can show mercy and save my governor from the fire."

Kong Wenju knows nothing about governing a party... Ma Chao complained in his heart and pretended to be in trouble:

"In the past, my father had an old relationship with Kong Beihai, but now I can't send troops without permission without the imperial court order..."

When the people who asked for help heard this, they immediately kowtowed and begged Ma Chao to save them.

Ma Chao paced back and forth, and finally sighed as if he had made up his mind:

"That's all, for the sake of your sincerity, I will lead my army to the North Sea. Even if I am reprimanded for this, I will have a clear conscience!"

In the original work, Liu Bei borrowed troops to rescue him, which made Kong Wenju burst into tears with joy.

Now that Liu Guanzhang is gone, this great reputation falls on the sunny and handsome man Ma Mengqi.

Ma Chao led the cavalry, and after more than a day's trek, they finally arrived at Juxian County, the seat of Beihai County.

Linzi is in Qi State, and Juxian County is on the border of Qi State. When Ma Chao arrived, the Yellow Turban Army was densely packed outside Juxian County, like overwhelming locusts.

There were at least 300,000 of these people. Unfortunately, they did not have any decent weapons or siege equipment. In addition, they were not organized. Even after besieging Jixian County for half a year, they failed to capture the city. Eaten everything around him.

Seeing these yellow turban thieves, several teams of the light cavalry were hesitant. The entire light cavalry only had 5,000 men at full strength, and the yellow turbans around Jixian County were so numerous that there was no end in sight.

With such a disparity in military strength, the entire army will be wiped out if not careful.

But Ma Chao was very excited because he knew the details of the Yellow Turban thieves. Despite their fierce fighting spirit, they were actually just fighting a smooth battle.

A group of rabble lacking armor, weapons, training, and little will to fight. The light cavalry is simply a nemesis tailor-made for them.

Ma Chao ordered:

"Line up! I'm going to challenge the leader of these Yellow Turban bandits."

This guy has read the original novel and knows that the leader is Guan Hai, so he wants to kill Guan Hai to win a good reputation for himself... This was originally the honor that belonged to Guan Erye, but Guan Erye is gone, so it has to be our Ma Mengqi.

Although Ma Chao came to save the situation, he neither contacted Kong Rong nor arranged a strategy of internal and external cooperation. Instead, he rode his horse to the Yellow Turban Army's camp and suddenly shouted with a loudspeaker:

"Rebel Guan Hai, get out and die!"
