As soon as Xiao Jing entered the house, she smelled a sour smell in the air. She subconsciously looked in the direction of the restaurant and had a bad premonition.
It was difficult for Yan Jun to conceal her joy. She said, "Yesterday, when I heard that you were coming back, I made the chef at home pick the freshest ingredients."
"Mother, did you make this?" Shen Chengfeng looked at the long line of dishes on the table, the answer was obvious.
She led her daughter-in-law into the dining room and said, "This is the dish I studied last night and your father-in-law tried it. Don"t worry, it"s all edible."
Xiao Jing sized up Marshal Shen Tian, who was sitting on the main seat with his face alternating between green and purple. She silently wanted to ask her future mother-in-law: "Are you sure this meal can be eaten?"
Shen Jingbin burped and stood up from the chair, "Although the taste is a little strange, it"s still worth ordering. For example, your grandma thinks that you might like this dish with soup and cabbage, so she put in two YD demon chilli peppers and also put in this dish, steamed bitter melon, which also has a very good tip in it: three walnuts to mend the brain and blood and then go to the fire."
Xiao Jing felt that her future father-in-law had become somewhat delirious.
Shen Chengyi stared at the table full of food, no wonder his mother repeatedly reminded him that he must come back for dinner today.
"My second brother is also back. Come and have a taste. Mother specifically left some soup for you." Yan Jun personally handed a bowl to him.
Shen Tian rubbed his stomach and sat back down on the chair. Thankfully, his second son had returned. He could finally stop trying to cook.
Before Shen Chengyi could react, a spoon was placed in his mouth, following that, an indescribable feeling of destruction spread from the tip of his tongue all over his body.
"How is it? I think it"s a bit unlucky, not hot enough. " Yan Jun had originally intended to drink by herself, but just as she put it near her mouth, she silently moved it away. She choked on her saliva, choked by the strong chili smell.
"Cough, cough, cough, cough." Shen Chengyi regained his senses and jumped a few meters away. When he could not find any water, he rushed out of the hall and jumped into the swimming pool, not caring about the cool weather in the past three months.
Yan Jun put down the bowl of soup. In the end, she placed a red cross sign in the pot of soup, which seemed quite normal.
"Mother, you don"t have to go through so much trouble." Shen Chengfeng walked into the kitchen and looked at the messy kitchen and said to the two chefs, "Let"s start preparing the lunch."
The two chefs looked at each other.
"Calm down a bit, don"t be too oily, and don"t taste too salty." After finis.h.i.+ng his explanation, Shen Chengfeng walked out of the kitchen.
Yan Jun sat back down on the chair and caressed the edge of the table with her fingers.
He held Yan Jun"s hand and said gently, "Children may not be accustomed to your cooking skills, but it"s alright. I"m used to it, so I"ll have to rely on you to cook for me for the next few decades."
Yan Jun smiled and asked, "Does Master not like to eat?"
"Didn"t Madame always say that I"m someone who doesn"t mean what I say? Although I said no on the surface, I actually feel very happy in my heart. " Shen Yi took a big gulp of the soup and said, "Although it"s very spicy, it"ll be done after a few more mouthfuls."
"Pfft." Yan Jun covered her mouth and smiled as she moved the bowl away. "Master, I"m afraid that I might damage your other tooth."
"The broken tooth will be fixed after a while. Madam is unhappy, so I will need a long time to coax her." Shen One picked up a piece of fish and placed it next to her mouth. "You try it too."
Yan Jun instinctively opened her mouth, and the smile on her face froze. She immediately spat it out. "Did I really do this?"
"Although it"s a bit salty and depressing, I"ll be going down after a few more mouthfuls of water." Shen ate two more mouthfuls in satisfaction.
Xiao Jing lightly tugged at the corner of her captain"s s.h.i.+rt. "Captain, I feel like I don"t need to eat to be full."
Shen Chengfeng covered his own wife"s eyes, "That way, I won"t be able to see it."
Xiao Jing pulled away his hand and took a sip of water. "Your second brother doesn"t seem to have floated up yet?"
"Maybe he"s too thirsty." Shen Chengfeng looked at the butler who seemed like he was prepared to fish, he stood up and said, "I will go out to take a look."
In the courtyard, a group of people were gathered around the pool.
Shen Chengyi gasped heavily as he floated out of the water, his mouth was completely red.
The butler hastily handed over the towel that he felt and asked, "Second Young Master, are you feeling better?"
Shen Chengyi"s mouth could not help but tremble, he shook his head, unable to speak.
"All of you, leave first." Shen Chengfeng walked forward and looked at his second brother who was drenched all over, and then gave him a coat.
Shen Chengyi s.h.i.+vered as his lips trembled, "Seems like you do have some conscience."
"Is there any progress in the research?" Shen Chengfeng"s intention of coming here was revealed.
Shen Chengyi was stunned, "Do you take me for a genius doctor? Give me something that"s easy to do and it will turn into something magical, something that"s going to take a long time. "
Shen Chengfeng"s gaze instantly fell on his body, "So you still haven"t broken through?"
"I"m trying my best to confirm my previous a.s.sumption, but this also requires a process."
Shen Chengfeng walked closer step by step, "You should know how important this is to her. She has always thought that you are giving an affirmative answer, not an ambiguous answer."
Shen Chengyi was forced to take a step back, he once again hung onto the edge of the pool, "I only gave a suggestion, how would I know that she is a woman, and even more so I didn"t expect that you would really have children."
"Why can"t a normal man and a normal woman have children?" Shen Chengfeng asked.
Shen Chengyi scrutinized him from top to bottom: How can you be a normal man?
Shen Chengfeng ignored the doubt in his eyes and continued, "If she comes to ask you this question in the future, you must tell her that it is for sure, and not for some repet.i.tive experiments?"
"You want me to lie to her? What if not? In the end, I took off my own signboard. "
Shen Chengfeng narrowed his eyes, "Or do you want me to take off the signboard for you?"
Shen Chengyi did not even have a breath to catch his breath, he was forced to hold his breath, and looked at his third brother who was threatening him with grievance. Shen Chengyi was forced to hold his breath, and looked at his third brother who was threatening him with grievance, and felt that he was the wrong person, and was about to be his benefactor.
"Second brother, you"re also a soldier, so you should know what a felony it is to misunderstand the military situation." Shen Chengfeng said.
"..." Did he just convict himself of being an unforgivable prisoner?
Shen Chengfeng"s eyes were fixed on him, it was obvious, Shen Chengfeng was indeed a sinner in his eyes.
Shen Chengyi almost fell into the pool again. He felt that he had to let this brat know his ident.i.ty. Whether it was his family"s status or the military"s position, he was a head above him.
"Sir." Xiao Jing came running in from the house.
Shen Chengfeng hugged her excited figure and said, "Why are you in such a hurry? "Slow down."
Xiao Jing pursed her lips and smiled. "I just remembered that I haven"t asked the chief about that matter."
Shen Chengfeng blocked her way without leaving a trace, "What do you want to ask?"
Xiao Jing smiled. "I"m pregnant now. Can we proceed to the next stage? For example, to speed up the experiment, do you need to draw blood? "
"Second brother has his own plans, we can"t pressure him too much, that way he"ll be very nervous." Shen Chengfeng said.
Xiao Jing looked at the silent Shen Chengyi and frowned, "Does this mean that there"s no progress?"
Shen Chengfeng shook his head, "We need to believe in second brother. He has evidence, right?"
Shen Chengyi felt a formless pressure. If he were to say something wrong at this time, his third brother would mercilessly kick him, allowing him to feel the warmth of the pool again.
Xiao Jing"s heart was in her mouth as she hurriedly asked, "Sir, what stage has the experiment progressed to now?" Do you need my cooperation? "
"Cough, cough." Shen Chengyi pretended to be profound and coughed, "I"ve succeeded in my experiments, I do not need your cooperation. Don"t worry, when I need you, I will be the first to inform you."
"That"s good." Xiao Jing grinned, "But sir, aren"t you cold?"
"Achoo." Before he finished his sentence, Shen Chengyi let out a long sneeze.
Shen Chengfeng quickly pushed his second brother away and blocked his wife, afraid that the sneeze would infect her.
Shen Chengyi"s body trembled, both of his arms continuously drew blood in the air, and finally he fell into the pond with a plop.
"Sir!" Xiao Jing shouted as she saw her coat slowly float to the surface of the water.
Whooooosh. Shen Chengyi stuck his head out of the pond and bared his teeth as he shouted, "Shen Chengfeng, you heartless little b.a.s.t.a.r.d."
Xiao Jing thought about whether she should go to the pond to fish for the rotating boss. However, just as she stretched out her hand, her team leader pulled her over.
Shen Chengfeng spoke with a light tone, "The chef should have already prepared lunch, go in."
Xiao Jing whispered, "What about your second brother?"
"He"s quite good at swimming, so there"s no need to pay attention to her." Shen Chengfeng pushed open the gla.s.s door.
In the dining room, the leftovers were taken away and replaced with a normal lunch.
A faint fragrance floated in the air from the combination of Chinese and Western dishes.
"This can be considered as a coincidence that I came earlier than you." Old Mistress Shen"s clear laughter came from the living room.
Everyone stood up obediently and waited for the madame to take her seat.
Old Mistress Shen waved her hands, "Since when did our Shen family have so many rules? Everyone is sitting here eating your food."
"Little Jing, have a piece of meat." Yan Jun picked up a piece of meat and placed it into her bowl.
"You"d better have a bowl of soup before dinner." Shen scooped up a bowl of soup and handed it over.
"She likes to eat pig"s feet." Shen Chengfeng placed the roasted pork leg onto her plate.
"You guys give her a pile of meat the moment you start. A pregnant person eating too much fat isn"t good for their stomach. You guys need to eat something light first. Come and eat some vegetables." At the same time, the old mistress did not forget to place a plate of sprouts into her bowl.
Xiao Jing looked at the plate full of food, and ate two mouthfuls, "You don"t have to give me food to eat, I can take it myself."
"That"s true. Why are all of them acting this way?" "Little Jing, why don"t you take a bite yourself?" Old Mistress Shen stirred her bowl of soup and glanced at her son, whose mouth was dripping with oil. "You should also be more open about it. After all, a new daughter-in-law has come to visit you. Pay more attention to her image."
"Cough, cough." Shen Tian put down the piglet"s hooves and wiped his mouth. "Yes, mother."
Old Madam Shen then looked at Xiao Jing, "Eat quickly, don"t be restrained. If you don"t have the guts to eat, eat whatever you don"t want. I"ll bring it over for you."
"Don"t any of you care about your second son who has fallen into the water?" Shen Chengyi ran into the restaurant as he felt wronged. Staring at his parents and elders, he stomped his feet and left a puddle of water before proudly running up to the second floor.
Yan Jun hastily stood up from her chair. Xiao Jing thought that as a mother, she should care about her second son, but she told her.
Yan Jun said, "Wipe the water clean. What will happen after you step on it?"
Shen Yixing slammed his hands on the table and said, "This guy has been getting more and more presumptuous lately. After getting a puddle of water, tell everyone not to give him any food for lunch today."
Xiao Jing walked in front of her captain and lowered her voice. "Why do I feel like your second brother picked him up?"
"Aren"t you hungry? "Just eat obediently." Shen Chengfeng placed some other dishes into her bowl.
After lunch, the fragrance of tea wafted in the air.
The bright sunlight shone in the courtyard as a gentle spring breeze blew by. The air was also mixed with the sweet fragrance of nectar.
"I set the wedding at Qishan Manor. Mother, what do you think?" Yan Jun personally brewed two pots of tea. One cup was placed in front of Old Madam Shen, while the other was placed in front of Xiao Jing.
Old Mistress Shen picked up a black piece with a grave expression on her face. "You can handle these matters as you wish."
"What does Little Jing think?" Yan Jun then turned to look at Xiao Jing, who was engrossed in studying the chessboard.
Xiao Jing nodded, "Grandmother just need to pay attention."
Yan Jun looked around and was sure that the two didn"t take her words to heart. She shook her head and said, "You two can slowly eat. There"s tea here when you"re hungry."
Old Mistress Shen rested a hand on the chair as her expression turned more and more serious. "You little girl, you"re not simple. You actually forced me to such a state."
Xiao Jing smiled. "Then Grandmother must have deliberately given me water."
"No, no, no. My wife wouldn"t deliberately go easy on someone just to please them. That would be disrespecting the game." Old Mistress Shen put on the black cloth once more.
Shen Tian stood at the side, already eager to go on stage.
Old Mistress Shen glanced at him, "What"s wrong?" You dare to come up and make a fool of yourself with just a little fire? "
Shen Tian smiled and said, "Mother, I will just take a look and won"t say a word more."
Xiao Jing continued to observe the situation as she unconsciously tightened her grip on the chess piece. She had to think about this.
"Alright, I"m not going again. Although this chess game is focused, it"s easy to damage your mind. You shouldn"t think too much about it right now." Old Mistress Shen gave up playing chess on her own accord.
Xiao Jing hurriedly said, "Grandmother, I can still continue."
Old Mistress Shen took out a towel and wiped away the sweat on her forehead. "There"s no need to force yourself."
Xiao Jing also felt that her strength was insufficient. She propped herself up from the chair and held on to the edge of the table. She had been maintaining this posture for too long, so her legs were numb.
Shen Chengfeng hung up the phone and hurried over from the other side of the yard, "What happened?"
Xiao Jing shook her head and hammered her feet. "Maybe I"ve been sitting here for too long."
"Hurry up and take her for a walk. Let"s move out." Old Mistress Shen was a little tired and took two sips of tea.
Shen Chengfeng took her hand and led her through the courtyard. In the spring when the flowers were blooming, birds were flying low in the air.
Xiao Jing lowered her head and smiled. "Captain, this feeling is really good."
Shen Chengfeng did not understand the meaning behind her words, "What do you feel?"
"It"s like an ordinary couple. You can see the scenery as you walk and stop, but I"m worried that you"re walking too fast, or that I"m walking too slow. I"ve always been walking side by side with you."
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Shen Chengfeng rubbed her head, "There"s still one more month, are you ready?"
Xiao Jing faced him, looking at him with an exceptionally serious expression. "I have long since made my preparations. I can help you put on your wedding dress at any time."
"Even if the road in front is extremely difficult, both of my hands must be held tightly."
Xiao Jing nodded seriously, her eyebrows curving. "Even if the world is not compatible with you, I still appreciate your kindness."
"Bam!" A flower of honor shook the heavens, dazzling the entire sky with its brilliance.
The helicopter flew across the dense forest of the Qishan Mountains, rolling up the dead leaves and falling down like a light b.u.t.terfly.
The ten-kilometer journey from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain was covered with flying flags, giant cannons, and flying helicopters that sprinkled petals.
Everything was so beautiful.
In front of the Xiao family"s mansion, there were crowds of people. A tank was clearing the way as it pointed its cannon at the leader"s mansion.
The steward was so scared that he began to sweat profusely. Was this a marriage? Why do I look like I"m here to steal the bride!
The leader was a powerful team of grooms formed by the army. They all wore camouflage clothes and high-precision imitation guns. As long as the leader gave the order, they could immediately break in.
Of course, Marshal Xiao Yao also gave the order today, to make a ruckus! Otherwise, who would dare trespa.s.s into their leader"s private residence.
On the second floor of the Xiao family"s residence, Qin Ran looked at the formation in the direction of the Xiao family"s residence and was shocked. "What happened?"
Xiao Jing opened the curtain and looked at the menacing group of people. She gestured, "Are you ready?"
Behind her, a group of female soldiers stood side by side. They replied in a voice that sounded like they could shake mountains and rivers, "Yes, sir."
"It"s time to check your results for the past two months." An indescribable smile appeared on the corner of Xiao Jing"s mouth.
All the best men in the group swarmed forward and approached the door from all directions.
Qin Ran"s heart couldn"t help but beat faster. She anxiously looked at her family"s calm daughter and frowned, "My daughter, marriage is a day of celebration. How come you made it sound like a military exercise?"
Xiao Jing smiled. "Mother, you can treat it as a military exercise."
"We can"t play like this. There are still a lot of guests waiting at the villa. If we miss the best time, then it won"t be good."
Xiao Jing put her hands on her mother"s shoulders. "You don"t have to worry. We will stop there."
After she said that, Qin Ran saw her daughter take out her walkie-talkie. That"s right, was she planning to personally organize this exercise?
Xiao Jing looked at the timely screen in front of the computer. There were four armored cars and a new type of M5200 tank in front of the main car. As expected, it had taken a lot of effort.
Along the way, there were quite a number of reporters who had originally planned to secretly take photos. However, after seeing the scene before them, they were so frightened that they no longer dared to rashly come out.
Was there going to be a war?
Shen Chengfeng walked out of the car. Today, he was dressed in a black military uniform, his military boots had stepped on the branches. He used the binoculars to check the movements in the house and said: "Attack."
"Dong, dong, dong." The ground began to shake.
The reporters lurking in the shadows were scared out of their wits.
Boom! Boom! Boom! The entire manor began to shake as well.
Cheng Chen, who was running at the front of the group, suddenly looked scared. His pupils slowly contracted as he saw the ten MT-008 heavy machine guns being pushed out. He stopped and turned around to run back.
Xiao Man calibrated the aiming device and fired continuously with a bang bang.
The simulation bullets used for the wedding was a firework style. After each bullet hit the barrier, it would immediately scatter, just like the firework would when it hit a person"s body. It was just that it would burn a hole through the clothes.
Cheng Chen jumped into the bushes.
Jiang Xin turned the muzzle of her Tank Cannon towards the group of female soldiers.
BOOM! The artillery sh.e.l.l came out from the muzzle. It was also a ceremonial type of artillery sh.e.l.l. The moment it landed on the courtyard, the ground was like a spark that was split into pieces. The words more or less fell onto the opponent"s body.
Wei Ziqi shook the two fire beads on her body, picked up the long barrel, and growled, "Disperse."
The group instantly dispersed.
Cheng Chen knew he was in trouble, so he turned around and fled from the underbrush where he was hiding.
BOOM! The ceremonial flower exploded about a meter away from him. However, in the blink of an eye, his attire was torn apart, leaving only a pair of white eyeb.a.l.l.s on his face. As for the hair that he had painstakingly made, it was burnt into small tufts.
Xiao Man stood on the stairs and leaned on the flowerbed with one leg as he tore off the somewhat embarra.s.sed coat he wore that had been burnt. Her pink bridesmaid"s skirt fluttered in the wind as she said, "Sisters, attack."
In other words —
Hahaha, tomorrow we"ll continue fighting for the bride. Xiao Man is ready, what about you? Tomorrow at midnight!
