There is a saying that goes well, life is like XX, since you can’t escape, it’s better to lie down and enjoy it.
This sentence very vividly describes the state of the two brothers Qing and Bai at this time.
He was helpless, his eyes were dull, he was mechanically digging the food in the casserole, and at the same time he was squinting at Chi Yao, who had piled up a stack of empty bowls next to him.
I’m not bragging, but there’s something really special about the local chicken stew made by my second aunt. The chicken is crispy and rotten. It’s a whole chicken before you open the chopsticks, but as long as the tip of the chopsticks is touched lightly, the chicken will fall apart immediately, like doing acrobatics.
Same.
Coupled with the delicious chicken soup and a variety of equally delicious side dishes...
It is no exaggeration to say that with this skill, it is no problem to establish a century-old store brand!
However, Chi Yao also somewhat understood how Qing and Bai felt, because after he ate five bowls in a row and used up all the stock of the second aunt's local chicken pot, the next thing she served was braised chicken, dry pot chicken, and saliva
Chicken, white chopped chicken, large plate chicken...
All in all, the second aunt spent her whole life studying how to cook chicken.
Although the taste is not bad, if you eat it for more than ten years, it will inevitably make people feel tired.
Perhaps it's been a long time since the second aunt has seen someone eating the food she cooked so deliciously. The look she is looking at Chi Yao now is filled with indescribable affection, and her favorability level has skyrocketed.
"Xiao Yao, eat slowly, it's not enough and there's still..."
After serving several more plates of Kung Pao Chicken and a large bucket of rice, the second aunt asked with a smile, "Xiao Yao, how old are you this year?"
"Just turned sixteen."
Chi Yao, who had already filled his belly, also slowed down his eating speed and chatted while eating.
"Hey, I'm just in high school!"
The second aunt was a little surprised, "You are young and promising when you come out to work so early!"
"No, Second Aunt, I'm already in college." Chi Yao explained, "I just registered a month ago."
"Going to college at the age of sixteen? Junior class?!"
The second aunt was almost overflowing with admiration, "Which school are you in? Qing and Meng are also in college! Maybe you are still alumni!"
"No, no..."
Chi Yao could hardly stand the praise, "I'm just the kind of person who just gets a diploma. In the southwest, I can't go to a university."
"Oh~ That's awesome! Did they treat you well this time? How was your time?"
"Some, some, they all helped me a lot, I'm very grateful."
Chi Yao nodded repeatedly and said sincerely.
"That's right! Then they are quite sensible..."
The second aunt lightly glanced at the three of them, and her eyes stopped on Zhuge Meng, "Hey, Xiaomeng, the hairpin on the top of your head seems to be moving?"
"You said this..."
Zhuge Meng reached out and grabbed the jade butterfly from the top of his head and placed it on his fingertips, "This is a meeting gift given to me by Chi Yao. Several of them have them! But mine is the most beautiful!"
"Really?"
The second aunt turned to Chi Yao again and said, "You came just as you said, and you don't have to give me any gifts. It costs a lot of money! So cute, have you given Xiao Yao a gift in return?"
"Um..."
At this time, the three of them were stunned.
Fortunately, Chi Yao came to the rescue: "I have come back, they have helped me a lot, and such a small gift is nothing."
"Really?"
The second aunt obviously doesn’t believe it.
"Really, really!"
Chi Yao's eyes were sincere, "If nothing else, Dameng taught me how to meditate, and Qing helped me find a magician's method of practicing Qi. These are not just one or two gifts..."
Before he finished speaking, the second aunt suddenly stood up: "What? Qing, how can you just teach others how to use Qi as a sorcerer?"
"Second aunt, don't worry, what I gave you is a popular product, not something passed down from our family."
Zhuge Qing said that you can rest assured that I will do my job.
Unexpectedly, what the second aunt wanted to say was not this, "Is this the question I'm talking about?! The practice of a warlock is extremely dangerous, and there is always the danger of insanity. You, you, you, how could you leak it so casually?
What should I do if Xiaoyao’s practice goes wrong?”
"Um..."
These words left Zhuge Qing and the others speechless.
It’s not just the second aunt’s special preference for Chi Yao, but also the fact that they recalled the blow of Chi Yao’s sudden entry into the four realms.
Zhuge Meng was speechless: "Don't say that, you still made mistakes in practice. He fell into silence and didn't make any mistakes, but he almost scared us out!"
"Huh? What's going on?"
The second aunt realized from her tone and the expressions of brother Zhuge Qingbai that things were not simple.
"This guy said that he has never practiced Jing Gong before."
Zhuge Meng pursed his lips at Chi Yao, "Then I'll teach him. There's no secret to the method of entering tranquility. What's the result? I taught him well, but this guy repaid me with kindness!"
"Hey, hey, Dameng, what you said is too much, as if I did something to you."
Chi Yao quickly put down his bowl and prepared to explain.
"Huh, don't you care about me?"
Zhuge Meng snorted arrogantly, and then cried, "You've hit me! Second aunt, this guy entered tranquility for the first time, and he directly achieved the four Zen states of pure equanimity and thought, and he spent all his time in it.
For more than half an hour!"
"What?"
The second aunt was stunned, then turned to Zhuge Qing and confirmed, "In half an hour, will your thoughts be pure?"
"Well, it can't be fake."
Zhuge Qing squinted his eyes and nodded.
"This, this is an effect that can only be achieved by a pure heart as pure as a blank sheet of paper in the legend!"
The second aunt said excitedly, "Such a person...such a person..."
Halfway through her words, she stood up, turned around and left.
This sudden movement shocked several others.
"Second aunt, what are you doing?"
Zhuge Meng asked loudly in confusion from behind.
"I have to tell my eldest brother the news!"
The second aunt's voice came from far outside.
The four people at the dinner table looked at each other. After a long while, Chi Yao asked carefully: "This, that, Qing, Da Meng, Xiao Bai, second aunt, what do you mean? This eldest brother..."
"The eldest brother in my second aunt's mouth is my father."
Zhuge Qing explained, "But why she rushed to tell her father about this matter, I can't figure out the reason. Even if I think you are innocent and want you to join our family, you should go
Let’s discuss it with Da Meng’s father. Why are we talking to my father?”
At the end of the sentence, he also showed obvious confusion.
"Bah, bah, bah! Why are you looking for my father?! Besides, although static skills are very important to a warlock, counting talent is equally important. Has Chi Yao shown any talent in this area? How could the second sister be so
Eager?"
Zhuge Meng retorted, "Since the second sister is looking for your father, obviously this matter has nothing to do with me! Hehe~"
Her last words had a hint of gloating and not taking things too seriously.
