Wei Cheng didn't expect to see her, his former wife, again so soon.
To be honest, he is a bit smart at this moment.
He had always been afraid of being recognized, so he tried his best to avoid contact with acquaintances from his previous life. For this reason, he even hid in the mountains and forests, just not wanting to expose his secrets.
But, has what is supposed to come finally come?
Wei Cheng could only bite the bullet and let Hao Dadao bring him up. Now there is another way, which is to pretend to be serious.
After all, he is a person who was almost buried. It is normal for his mood to change a little. Well, this Gangbeaver.
However, what surprised Wei Cheng was that after the woman came up, she went directly to the [shabby room].
Wei Cheng scratched his head and felt that his worries were in vain. Didn't the relationship between the former couple be very good?
At this time, little Aning was looking around Cai Yan in the shabby room mischievously. Her big eyes fell on Cai Yan's face, full of envy. This was the most beautiful sister she had ever seen.
Cai Yan also likes this little girl very much. If she got pregnant after marrying Wei Cheng, the child should be a few years younger than this little girl now, she thought in her heart.
"Sister, sister, are you really Brother Wei's wife?" Little Aning raised her head and asked.
Cai Yan thought she was cute and half-crouched down to support Aning's shoulders, "Yes, the wife Ming Media is marrying is someone she will stay with for the rest of her life."
"all my life?"
"It means being together forever."
Little Aning blinked, as if he thought of something, and suddenly said: "Then I also want to be Brother Wei's wife, and I also want to stay with Brother Wei for the rest of my life."
Cai Yan looked startled.
But I heard the little girl continue to say happily: "This way I can eat the delicious food cooked by Brother Wei every day, and I can also drink delicious juice and wine, hehehehe...suck it..."
Cai Yan didn't react for a while. When he saw the little girl crying, he thought about what she said, Wei Yan could actually cook?
Cai Yan shook her head, feeling that it was unlikely. In her impression, Wei Cheng had always been frail and sickly. His favorite thing to do on weekdays was to hide in the study, read biographies of famous people, and study ancient books such as epigraphy and potions.
Wei Cheng did cook, but that was to make soup for himself, and it didn't seem to be a delicacy.
Cai Yan frowned slightly, feeling that the little girl Tong Yan Wuji must have misunderstood something.
At the entrance of the courtyard, Hao Niang and Xiao'e walked in holding hands. When they saw Cai Yan, they bowed and said, "Sanniang (Xiao'e), I have met Mrs. Wei."
Cai Yan looked at the two of them and returned the salute gracefully, but his eyes stayed on Hao Niang's face for a moment.
Through the gauze, the burn scars on Hao Niang's face could be vaguely seen. Cai Yan was amazed by Hao Niang's beauty and beauty, but also felt a little sorry for her. A very beautiful person was ruined just because of a scar.
When she was looking at Hao Niang, Hao Niang was also looking at her secretly.
Cai Yan's appearance is absolutely perfect. In addition, she comes from a scholarly family and has learned everything from piano, chess, calligraphy and painting since she was a child. Over time, she has naturally developed a unique temperament.
Compared with Cai Yan's appearance and extraordinary posture, Hao Niang lowered her head in shame, and many of her past fantasies were gradually extinguished. She, who was already low on self-esteem because of her scars, suddenly seemed to have lost the meaning of life.
At the entrance of the courtyard, Wei Cheng walked in with heavy steps.
When Cai Yan saw him, he hurriedly pulled his sleeves together and saluted: "Husband."
Wei Cheng was afraid that the fact that his soul had penetrated would be exposed, so he bit the bullet and responded: "Yeah."
Mainly, he didn't know how his predecessor and his wife greeted each other on weekdays. However, what he didn't expect was that this "hmm" sound accidentally reproduced the expression and tone of his predecessor.
Cai Yan's expression darkened. After all, my husband still refused to get close to me.
Then look at little Aning running over, pulling Wei Cheng and saying coquettishly: "Brother Wei, I want to eat noodles and drink juice."
Wei Cheng, who had a straight face at first, suddenly seemed to have changed. He smiled and responded, "Okay, then we'll have noodles for lunch."
Cai Yan looked at the smile on Wei Cheng's face in surprise. It could be said that this was the first time she had seen Wei Cheng smile after being married to Wei Cheng for so many years.
Wei Cheng noticed that Cai Yan was staring at him and hurriedly put away his smile and told Hao Niang: "Sanniang, I need to ask you and Xiao'e to do a favor. Just eating noodles won't work. You can go to Zhengtou and ask for one."
Fresh chicken, let’s make shredded chicken.”
"Shredded chicken?" Aning heard that there was something he had never eaten before, and asked curiously: "Brother Wei, what is shredded chicken? Is it delicious?"
Wei Cheng's words also caught Cai Yan's attention. Yes, what is shredded chicken? It sounds like it's very barbaric.
Wei Cheng glanced at Cai Yan and saw that her expression did not change much, so he said: "You will know in a moment that the heat in this summer is so strong that people have little appetite, especially hot food.
The chicken is ice cold, appetizing and delicious.”
The summer heat is severe and I don’t like to eat hot food.
Cai Yan recalled in her mind the summer of the second year after her wedding. It was the first time she cooked by herself. As a result, Wei Yan didn't touch a single chopstick of the food she cooked. She asked the maid to reply to her message, which was the ten items above.
Character.
At that time, Cai Yan's feeling of loss was beyond words. She looked at the knife wounds and blisters on her hands alone and cried all night long.
Is he just speaking his mind?
Cai Yan looked at the somewhat unfamiliar Wei Cheng and felt that he had changed, but it seemed that nothing had changed.
What has changed is that his attitude towards others has become friendly, but what has not changed is that he is still cold towards himself.
Knowing that Wei Cheng wanted fresh pheasants, Chengtou immediately went down the mountain to hunt. This guy had several hunting strongholds, and he brought back three strong pheasants in a short time. The meat of pheasants is relatively good, so he took it
It's perfect for making shredded chicken.
Tear the muscles into thin strips, mix them with freshly picked bracken, cat's claws, mountain onions and other ingredients, then pour the sauce prepared by Wei Cheng, and finally chill them with cold stream water for a while. After the noodles are cooked,
The temperature of the shredded chicken has basically dropped.
The ice mirror used for cooling was also brought from Wei's. There was no ice in it, but stream water was used as a coolant for cooling. Although the effect was average, it was better than nothing.
There was also a jar of juice in the iceberg. Wei Cheng didn't want to take it out for fear of revealing too many secrets in front of women, but when he remembered, Aning had already walked out with the jar in his arms and poured it for Cai Yan.
A big bowl full of bright yellow orange juice.
"This is..." Cai Yan was about to speak.
Wei Cheng said hurriedly: "Let's have a bowl to cool off the heat. I'll try the noodles and shredded chicken later. It tastes good."
Cai Yan, who wanted to ask "What is this?" was stunned for a moment, and then a blush appeared on his cheeks.
It's not that she's so miserable, but that after being married to Wei Cheng for so long, this is the first time that Wei Cheng cares about her so much.
"Many, thank you for your concern, husband!"
Wei Cheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Hearing her thank you, he didn't notice the change in her expression and just nodded lightly.
Cai Yan pursed his lips, picked up a piece of shredded chicken, paused, and put it into Wei Cheng's bowl.
Wei Qing thought to herself that this was probably their daily relationship as husband and wife. It seemed normal for a wife to pick up food for her husband, so she responded: "Thank you, madam."
However, what Wei Cheng didn't see was that Cai Yan's little hand holding the chopsticks trembled slightly, and his eyes looking at him were filled with incredible brilliance, mixed with a little touch of emotion.
Wei Cheng was thinking, if she picks up food for me, should I pick up food for her too? Seeing Cai Yan holding the chopsticks motionless, Wei Cheng thought to himself, he's already pretending, so why not just pick up a dish?
Well.
So, Wei Cheng also picked up a piece of chicken with chopsticks and said, "Try it, too. This shredded chicken requires the chicken legs, including the skin and meat, to be delicious."
In the eyes of outsiders, the scene between the two of them is no longer as simple as an ordinary show of affection. They simply treat each other with respect and support each other.
Hao Niang waited on the side, feeling sad in her heart.
For a handsome young man like Wei Teng, it is impossible to say that she has no ideas, but it is a pity that all this has nothing to do with her. She thinks that she cannot compare to Mrs. Wei no matter what.
After meal.
Wei Cheng learned that Cai Yan was going to live with him here permanently, but was too embarrassed to ask her to go back, so he asked Hao Niang to help clean up the warehouse where the boxes were kept.
He plans to live in the warehouse by himself at night. As for living together, that is something he would never dare to think about.
Fortunately, Cai Yan was used to it and didn't say anything. She just silently helped Hao Niang clean the room.
The boxes where Wei Cheng kept his things were all locked with copper locks, so he wasn't afraid of exposing anything, so he simply ran to the village to avoid the opportunity to be alone with Cai Yan, lest he talk too much and make mistakes. Just in time, let's take a look.
How prepared are their fortifications?
After all, Hu Biao was the commander in chief of the 500-strong navy, so he still had to have the necessary defensive measures.
At the lift platform, Hao Dadao sighed and said, "I hope we don't get to that point."
This year was already difficult, and now that Xiao'e was about to offend the local snake Hu Biao, Hao Dadao, as the village leader and clan leader, couldn't help but feel uneasy, fearing heavy casualties.
On the contrary, the first-class people had no scruples, so Hao Zhao even picked up his Han sword and started practicing directly in the open space.
Wei Cheng observed it with great interest for a while. He didn't know what kind of martial arts he was practicing. He just felt that his movements were fierce and powerful, as if every sword strike could cut the enemy in half.
Wei Cheng felt something in his heart. He felt that Hao Zhao's martial arts route was more suitable for using weapons such as broadswords. Although the Han sword could also chop, the two tough swords were more suitable for lighter skills such as cutting, stabbing, and picking.
Cutting will obviously easily damage the sword body.
Thinking of this, Wei Cheng suddenly remembered the watermelon knife used to cut watermelons in Fang Xin's supermarket.
Just when he was hesitating whether to go back to modern times and give the villagers some knives and sticks as weapons, the vigilance officer suddenly shouted: "Brothers, we are robbing you, those idiots are really here.
"
After hearing this, Hao Dadao quickly walked to the edge of the cliff and looked over. The worried expression on his face was gradually replaced by cold sweat.
Wei Cheng also came closer. His eyesight was good, and he could see about twenty people riding horses rushing in their direction from a distance.
The leading man also had a flag on his back, with the word "Hu" embroidered on it in small seal script. The person coming was undoubtedly Hu Biao, or one of Hu Biao's men. Unexpectedly, they all rode horses. It seemed that this Hu Biao was not.
Short of money.
At a distance of a hundred meters, the other party quickly arrived at the foot of the mountain. The leader had a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, heavy dark circles under his eyes, blue lips, and looked like he was suffering from excessive sexual indulgence.
"That's Haojia Village up there. No one came down to greet me. How brave... Where is Hao Dadao? Hand him over quickly. I'll serve you with good wine and meat. I'm all hungry."
This man was the man who offered his advice in front of Hu Biao yesterday. Unlike the groveling and groveling in front of Hu Biao, his attitude was extremely arrogant when facing the people in Haojia Village, and his tone was in sharp contrast to his thin body.
As soon as the man finished speaking, a man behind him said: "Brother Ang, this Hao Dadao also has a daughter. Hehe, although there is a scar on his face, his figure is very beautiful, even better than the girls in our kiln.
And."
The wretched man's eyes lit up. At his level, looking at a woman is no longer just about her face. "Seriously?"
The man smiled and said: "How can there be any lie? The lazy guy Lao Liu told me personally that the girl accidentally burned her face when she was young, otherwise she would have been taken in as a child bride by the wealthy families in the city, oh
, By the way, you have met her two sisters before. Do you still remember the green radish and red plum that were next to the old lady of the Chen family? "
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, it turns out she is the sister of those two sluts. What a great relationship." The wretched man's eyes lit up, and he became excited. He licked his dry lips and said, "After a while, the brothers saw the opportunity.
Act, do you understand?"
"Haha, don't worry, Angkor, brothers will not let you down." A group of men laughed.
At this time, everyone in Haojia Village on the mountain was already flushed with anger.
It's just that those people spoke so brazenly that they had no intention of guarding against them.
Hao Dadao had veins popping out on his forehead. His original fear and uneasiness had long since disappeared when he heard them verbally insulting his daughter.
Everyone looked at Wei Cheng, and Wei Cheng couldn't bear to be angry at this time. Hao Niang is such a simple and kind-hearted girl, and these beasts have to worry about her. Okay, since there is no way to be kind, let's fight her.
Wei Teng held Hao Zhao tightly, who was about to run away, and said to Chengtou, "Are you sure you can keep them all?"
Zhengtou shook his head and said truthfully: "It's difficult. They are all riding horses. Although we are condescending, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Bows and arrows are easily blocked by dense branches. At most four or five are left."
Hao Zhao said angrily: "Then kill four or five first. If you dare to speak ill of my three sisters, I will kill them."
Wei Cheng patted his shoulder and said, "Calm down, the other side is obviously well prepared. Since we have made the decision to start a fight, we will try not to leave anyone alive this time. This way we can buy some time to prevent their next move."
A wave of intrusion.”
Hao Dadao frowned and asked, "Young Master, do you have any countermeasures?"
Wei Cheng looked at the wretched man shouting at the bottom of the mountain, nodded slightly, and said with a smile: "Nowadays, soldiers and bandits are causing chaos everywhere, and the Yellow Turban rebels are even more elusive. About twenty of them are riding horses. Isn't this an obvious ostentation."
With that said, Wei Cheng ordered Hao Zhao on the side: "Go to my house and bring the two black clay pots behind the courtyard door."
Looking at Weigou, he said: "Call all the hunters in the village. I want the ones with the best archery skills and the most accurate throwing. You can select twenty...twenty-three."
