Veteran

When I was young, I just ate and slept well.

Cheng Xiu stayed in bed until twelve o'clock before getting up hungry. The red marks on his arms had disappeared, and the aches and pains on his body became more and more intense. There was a long-lost familiarity. He came out with two nutritious lunches in his hand: "Eat less now, you can eat more for the celebration banquet."

Cheng Xiu looked at him with pity: "How poor are you?"

Cao Yu sighed: "Every man who supports his family thinks he doesn't have enough money to give his wife the best."

Cheng Xiu said, "Because those men really don't have enough money."

Cao Yu laughed and said, "I thought you would quarrel with me about the word 'wife'."

Cheng Xiu snatched the nutritious meal, sat cross-legged on the ground, gulped it all down to her mouth, and then wiped her mouth: "When I'm struggling, I usually do it directly."

Sitting opposite him, Cao Yu gracefully took out a spoon: "After you're full, you can eat as much as you like. Do you want me to take a shower before going to bed?"

Cheng Xiu said angrily, "With such a thick skin, it's useless to wash anything."

Cao Yu laughed at first, but when he saw Cheng Xiu stand up and walk out, he immediately followed suit, "Where are you going?"

Cheng Xiu said: "Liberate nature."

"There's a restroom here."

"Since it is to liberate nature, of course we must find a place with natural landscapes to solve it."

Cao Yu put down the nutritious meal: "I'll go with you."

Cheng Xiu looked disgusted: "When will you change the problem of peeping at other people's bathroom?"

Cao Yu said, "When will you allow me to appreciate it in an open and honest manner?"

"..."

Cheng Xiu finally solved the problem in the toilet that comes with the room.Cao Yu took advantage of this time to finish the nutritious meals quickly, and waited at the door: "I'll show you around."

Cheng Xiu was noncommittal, but followed automatically.

After the war, the starship was filled with completely different joys and sorrows of survivors and bereaved friends, so that everyone they met seemed to be smiling but not smiling, crying but not crying. In a word, the emotion leaks out.

Cheng Xiu said, "Are they also mercenaries?"

Cao Yu nodded: "They are all newcomers who have just entered the industry not long ago."

"Cheap and good quality?"

"This is one of the reasons. The new and old ones in the Cheshe Arena are quickly eliminated, and those who are too old can easily show their flaws."

"How did you find Jiaolong Arena?" He remembered that AC26 and DH33 were far apart.

Cao Yu said: "There are often people missing in the AC galaxy. The police are used to turning a blind eye. Fortunately, the attack on the resurrection laboratory caused a big commotion and the planet was under martial law. I found the entry and exit records of the Overlord Five, but It also took a lot of work. The time from knowing you were trapped in the Jiaolong Arena to Mr. Yu buying the car house was too short, so I had to find a group of new faces to make a living." This battle was won by luck, if it wasn't for Mr. Yu who happened to be around There is an undercover agent with unpredictable results.

Cheng Xiu looked at the little fresh meats walking around, and commented: "The psychological quality is a bit weak, but they are very dedicated."

Cao Yu said, "Do you want to recruit them?"

"I didn't weave it myself, what kind of weaving do I accept? Shall we weave flower baskets together in the sun?"

"I said, your wish is the direction of my efforts."

Cheng Xiu shook her head to express that she was not interested.

Cao Yu's expression darkened slightly.

Cheng Xiu looked at him: "You want to recruit me?"

Cao Huang lowered his head and said with a little grievance, a little guilt, and a little depression: "I owe you a marshal."

Cheng Xiu took a deep look at him: "The country owes me a Marshal."

He knew very well in his heart that even if Cao Xun had not been charged with a single vote, the government would never tolerate him taking the position of Marshal.It's nothing more than a great honor, mainly because the boundaries of power are difficult to determine.In the history of Xingguo, there has only been one marshal, and he is also a founding meritorious service. Not only did he assist in the government affairs during the president's serious illness, he concentrated all the power in one person, and after the president passed away, he directly became the president through election.During that time, the military had unprecedented power, and the government was suppressed so hard that it could not lift its head.With such a precedent, how can the government tolerate another marshal from the military?

Cao Yu said: "I think we can still get it back if we work hard now."

Cheng Xiu said: "And then, in the midst of all the turmoil, you will encounter an assassination by relatives and enemies?"

Cao Yu said eagerly, "I will protect you."

Cheng Xiu ticked his fingers at him: "Lower your head."

Cao Yu was vigilant: "You don't hit someone in the face when you hit someone."

"I won't hit you."

Do you want to...

Cao Yu pursed his lower lip, knowing that it was impossible, but lowered his head expectantly.

Cheng Xiu squeezed his face: "I was reborn to make up for the shortcomings of my previous life, not yours."

Cao Yu said, "Isn't it more efficient to make up for it together?"

"As long as you don't hinder me."

"I support whatever you like."

"I like you wearing floral pants."

Cao Yu smiled: "When there are two people, it's not impossible to think about it."

Cheng Xiu lifted her leg and left.

Walking to the command room, Cao Qizhi's butt was still sitting on the command seat.Seeing him earnestly commanding everyone to count the mechs, repair the starship, replenish energy, and resettle the wounded, Cheng Xiu looked relieved: "The salary you paid him must be very high."

Cao Yu said, "He is still posting upside down."

"...Give me a dozen of such talents!"

"You nod, he is sharing resources."

"Shall I split it in the middle with a watermelon knife first?"

Cao Qizhi, who had been whispered by them for a long time and heard it clearly, turned his head unbearably: "I'm still in the probationary period."

Cheng Xiu said, "No wonder you worked so hard."

"No, I mean, I can leave at any time." Cao Qizhi stared at Cao Yu and said earnestly, "If the boss is too outrageous, I won't tolerate it."

Cheng Xiu comforted Cao Yun: "I think you are too 'big' outrageous, and there is still a 'little' distance from 'too' outrageous, you can continue to be outrageous."

Cao Qizhi didn't want to talk to him anymore.

Cao Yu walked to the seat and glanced at the console: "Is there any problem?"

Cao Qizhi said: "The mercenaries want to leave early, from the planet Moore in the Pella galaxy." Thinking of Cao Yu's lack of common sense sometimes, he added, "The Pella galaxy just became a regular from the immigrant galaxy five years ago. It's from the Pang family. Planet Moore has a hellfire landscape and is a popular tourist star in recent years."

Cao Yu said, "Do you need identity verification to enter the Pella Galaxy?"

Cao Qizhi was stunned for a moment, then looked at Cheng Xiu: "If he remembers his identity before he was kidnapped, he can make up a copy."

And then a national sensation?

The great general sang "I still want to live 500 years" to cheat the corpse.

Cheng Xiu and Cao Tong looked at each other.

Cao Yu said, "I'll figure out a way."

Cao Qizhi said: "It's really not possible, it's okay to send it to an orphanage."

Cao Huang refused: "The government suspends adoption. After entering an orphanage, you must wait until you are an adult before you can get an ID card."

Cheng Xiu asked, "Why is the adoption suspended?"

Before Cao Yu could speak, Cao Qizhi said, "Because there is General Lin Ying."

……

I have been dead for so many years, is this also my fault?

When Cheng Xiu raised her eyes, she seemed to see that fate had used a trick of "a thousand arrows" to shoot herself into a hedgehog who "will never die".

Cao Qizhi said: "Lin Ying was adopted from an orphanage and became a seven-star general of Xingguo. After his death, many people imagined that they could find the next Lin Ying. People in the military, political circles, and business circles, as long as they have a little Xiaoqian, I went to the orphanage to try my luck. After finding it for a few days, I found that the qualifications were too poor, and I found various reasons to abandon him. It was like raising people as pets! So the government simply closed the adoption channel and allocated a certain amount every year. The money is dedicated to raising this group of orphans."

Cheng Xiu: "..." Blame him for being too handsome, too smart, too capable?

Cao Huang frowned, and it took him a long time to come up with two words: "Nonsense." If there are loopholes in the policy, they should be patched. Even the software that is easy to use needs to be patched from time to time. What has no loopholes?When encountering difficulties, one size fits all, not so much for the sake of the people, as it is too troublesome and too lazy to take care of it.

Cao Qizhi looked at his rarely expressed anger suspiciously: "It's not just one or two things they messed about."

Wang Zhen came in from the outside: "The flower shadow is here." The familiar tone was obviously not the first time.

Cheng Xiu silently speculated in her heart when they would secretly plot against each other, and then heard Cao Yu say, "Come with me."

"Unfamiliar."

"It's also a junior."

Cao Qizhi and Wang Zhen: "..." Such a little guy has younger generations, and Huaying's generation is also... His ancestors were very anxious to have children for generations, so advanced.

Cheng Xiu still followed Cao Yu, since he had nothing else to do anyway.

Goodbye Huaying, she no longer had the ease and calmness she had when they first met. She was gloomy, with a gloomy air between her brows, curled up in a chair, hiding in the shadow of the curtains, holding half of her fingertips cigarette.Seeing Cao Huang come in, he casually nodded and took another sip.

"There are minors here," Cao Yu said.

Hanakage stuffed the cigarette into the ashtray by the table.Close the lid of the ashtray, automatically turn on the air conditioner, change part of the air, and exhale the fresh fragrance of jasmine.

Cheng Xiu sneezed and rubbed her nose: "It's not as good as the smell of smoke."

Cao Yu reluctantly turned off the ashtray.

Huaying said, "When are you leaving?"

Cao Yu said, "After attending the celebration banquet."

Huaying said: "I'll leave after a while, you leave some people for me."

Cao Huang raised his eyebrows: "Your grandfather is not in good health, and I really want to see you."

Huaying smiled mockingly: "Because the boss was reported for corruption, his reputation was discredited, and the second got into a fight and went to jail, ruining his future, so do you really want to see me?"

Cao Yu said: "The fourth child is young and still in elementary school, so he is unreliable. The eldest brother and the second child will not be able to develop in five years. The right time, place and people have paved the way for you. Why don't you go?"

Huaying said: "My parents were chased and killed, and there were no dead bodies. I was wandering outside when I was seven or eight years old, and I have lived stumblingly by myself until now. After so many years, if I want to see me, I will go to see me?"

Cao Yu said: "Frustrations are inevitable in life, you should clearly think about what you want."

Huaying raised her head, showing a strange smile: "I want Ye Zihe."

Cao Yu suddenly had nothing to say.

Back then, he was one step away from reaching the top, why did he give up? Isn’t it——

Does he want Lin to win?

Cao Xun gave birth to a comrade-in-arms feeling of sympathy and sympathy.Although Cheng Xiu is by my side now, it is impossible to erase what happened, and it is impossible to come back what was lost. The days in between are difficult, and you will only know after experiencing it. "Didn't catch up?"

"He's avoiding me." With a violent expression on her face, Huaying slammed her fist on the table, "Don't let me catch you, Hu Shu."

Cheng Xiu lit the wax for Hu Shu, and congratulated him for perfectly interpreting the word "cannon fodder".

Cao Yu didn’t try to persuade him any more. Anyway, finding him was a matter of chance. If he succeeded, he would show his face at Hua’s house. If he failed, no one would say anything. There are so many people who have accepted the task of “Looking for the third son of Hua”, who would pay attention to one of them? A collateral branch of the Cao family.

Fu Chenxi held the celebration banquet originally to calm people's hearts and show off his strength by keeping Huaying and Cao Tong behind. However, after hearing the words of Xiao Zhuizi and Lao Wu, he was full of thoughts that Mr. Yu would make a comeback soon. The chair was already hot before it sat still.

During the day and night when Cao Yu and Cheng Xiu recharged their batteries and settled their suspicions, he had been struggling in dire straits, and finally made a difficult decision.After taking that step in his mind, his whole body relaxed. When welcoming the guests, he greeted people with a smile and a personable demeanor, vaguely regaining the demeanor before the incident.

His cronies, including Song Yu's younger brothers, all attended the banquet, because of Song Yu's matter, they were still a little lukewarm towards Cheng Xiu.

Of course, Cheng Xiu wouldn't take it to heart, there are too many people who are lukewarm to him, and it's not like he was allowed to live to the end.

Cao Yu took him to search for delicious food.

As he expected, even though the war had just ended, the planet was in ruins, and reconstruction work was imminent, but in order to show her excellent work ability, Fu Chenxi carefully prepared a sumptuous dinner.

Holding the dessert in one hand and holding Cheng Xiu in the other, he lowered his head to ask questions from time to time, with a gentle look on his face. From outsiders' perspective, he had the posture of a good brother.

Song Yu's former younger brother was drinking a little too much, and the more he looked at it, the more he found the picture glaring, he couldn't help but walked over, and sneered: "You are still amazing, at such a young age, you have such vicious methods. of."

Cheng Xiu raised her eyebrows and was about to speak when she was hugged.Cao Yu patted the person in his arms to comfort him, and said to his drunken brother, "I'm not his brother, I'm his husband."

……

The younger brother blinked his eyes, and before his head could catch up with the meaning of the sentence, Cheng Xiu and Cao Tong almost started fighting.The so-called almost fight means that Cao Yu didn't fight back, it was Cheng Xiu's unilateral attack.

Although he is only seven or eight years old, his shots are fierce, and he attacks people's weak spots. After being hit a few times, Cao Yu's whole body is sore and numb. If the dessert was not picked up by Cheng Xiu in time, he would make a fool of himself.

Cao Yu smiled wryly and rubbed his arms: "I just want to annoy him."

Cheng Xiu swallowed something: "I hit you to scare him."

Cao Yu: "..."

Farce curtain call.

Cheng Xiu and Cao Tong had a temporary truce and ran to a corner to eat.

Cheng Xiu rubbed her arms, her current body was too small, too soft and tender, and she felt like she was falling apart when she moved a few times: "When will I grow up?"

Cao Yu said: "It depends on your physique. The resurrection water can be effective for a long time in a frozen state. Once the body returns to normal temperature, its medicinal effect will gradually fade. At that time, you will be able to grow up."

"You won't become an old man all of a sudden?"

Cao Yu smiled and said, "Anyway, I will accompany you until you grow old."

Pigtail pulled Lao Wu over to say hello.People rely on clothing, Buddha depends on gold clothing.Xiao Zhui and Lao Wu put on their suits and immediately became energetic. With the same style of gold-rimmed glasses, they seemed to be able to complete major life events in the wedding march of "Dangdang Dangdang" at any time.

The four of them sat and chatted together for a while, Cheng Xiu and Lao Wu both finished their desserts, and found that they had similar tastes, so they ran happily together to find something to eat.

Cao Yu was going to follow, but was stopped by the braid: "Are you a little too clingy? I and Lao Wu are not like that."

Cao Yu said: "The fifth child is not as good-looking as Cheng Xiu."

To actually say that his wife is not good-looking, I must not bear it!

The little braid said: "My wife is strong in fighting!"

Cao Yu: "..." Hehe, someone dared to challenge Lin Ying's combat effectiveness.

The little braid said: "My wife and I sleep in the same bed every night."

Cao Yu: "..." Lost.

The little braid wanted to show off, but Cao Yu changed the subject: "How did you know each other?"

The little braid said: "I fell in love at first sight. Mr. Yu asked the boss to choose a personal training, and I fell in love with him at the first sight. He is silent, and when we are together in the future, he must listen to me. But I didn't expect him to be an undercover agent."

Cao Yu: "..." I don't want to hear his tangled mental journey at all.

"I'm so happy." Little Braid said excitedly, "I have long felt that life is too boring, running around abducting children every day, without any technical content. Before I found out, he had been ignoring me, and I found out Then I threatened him and reported him if he was not with me. He stayed with me. Hahahaha..."

Cao Yu: "..."

The little braid said: "Afterwards we got along day and night, and he was slowly moved by me."

Cao Yu: "..."

Seeing Cao Yu looking at him with a complicated face, the little pigtail said dissatisfiedly, "What's your expression?"

Cao Yu said: "After hearing a magical story, I really want to give a reward."

"What I said is real."

"Is your relationship a deal?"

"You're still a pedophile!"

Want to explain but can't explain.Cao Yu's chest was congested.

Little Braid spared no effort to attack him: "I said you, with such an innovative vision, you can't lag behind in technology. Blindly retreating will not bring peace, only attacking can convince the enemy!"

Cao Yu changed the subject again: "Did you design the anti-magnetic force wave device?"

The little braid sneered: "Where is the anti-magnetic force wave device? If I want to be so capable, wouldn't I go to the Academia Sinica sooner? I lied to Fu Chenxi, otherwise he would be so stupid, and ran to tear himself apart with Mr. Yu."

"What happened yesterday?"

"The magnetic force wave launcher on planet DH33 was designed and installed by me. I left a back door in it, which can be remotely controlled. I turned off the ones aimed at Fu Chenxi. You are too far away from them, so they are affected. The fourth child is mostly a chariot, they can't fly, and they haven't found it."

Cao Yu: "..."

Cheng Xiu lowered her head to choose a cake, and the fifth child suddenly said, "Mr. Yu is the leader of the terrorist organization 'Nine Thousand Lions'. Besides human trafficking, they also have their own base, army and weapons factory. You should be careful in the future."

Since it is a terrorist organization, it is no longer within the scope of police management, right?

Cheng Xiu said, "This is a case that the police are in charge of? Doesn't the military care?"

The fifth child looked down at him suspiciously, as if he was thinking about why a seven or eight-year-old child spoke in an old-fashioned way.But he still answered: "Terrorist organizations are defined by the government, and the military doesn't care."

This shows that the relationship between the government and the military has been so bad that they don't even bother to maintain face.

The fifth child said: "The management of the immigrant star is very chaotic. There are all kinds of people. Many planets are secretly controlled by terrorist organizations and families. You'd better leave here with Cao Yu and go to the regular star."

regular star?

Is it a new name after 100 years?

The planets are divided into three classes, six classes, and nine classes, and the citizens are divided into high and low.

Cheng Xiu felt a little uncomfortable.Back then, when he conquered the north and south, he worked so hard to lay down the vast star field, and it was definitely not to accelerate its internal division.

He and Lao Wu went back to the corner, and found that the little pigtail who always "closed his mouth" and the always gentle and polite Cao Yu were sitting silently.

Seeing that the fifth child came back, the little pigtail complained: "He doesn't talk to me."

Cao Yu spread his hands and said that he had tried his best: "I changed six topics, but I couldn't continue talking."

"..."

The little pigtail looked around: "I didn't see Fu Chenxi and Huaying."

The fifth child said, "Half an hour ago, they went upstairs."

"Oh, half an hour. That's a lot to do." The little braid licked his lips.

Cheng Xiu: "..." I finally understood why Lao Wu, who was obviously very talkative, was always so taciturn in front of the little braid, and also understood why Cao Yu couldn't continue the conversation.

With a tacit understanding, Cao Yu smiled and blinked at him.

Say Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrives.Fu Chenxi, who was still nagging just now, returned to the venue with Huaying.

Fu Chenxi's eyebrows were beaming, it seemed that the conversation just now went well, and soon she and her subordinates were engaged in the real celebration.

Huaying still had a gloomy face, since Zizihe disappeared, it seems that there is nothing in this world worthy of his happiness.He walked to Cao Yu and sat down: "Fu Chenxi wants to join the Hua family."

"You promised?"

"Why not?" Huaying said lazily, "I don't agree, he will probably pee his pants in fright. I can't be so wicked. Besides, when we leave, he will give you a big gift, don't take it for nothing." It's useless to ask for it.Anyway, since the things are in his hands, it is up to him whether to give them to the Hua family or keep them all to himself.Fu Chenxi thought that with a few nice words and a few gifts, he would write everything off?dream.It is true that Mr. Yu was the one who kidnapped him, but Fu Chenxi is always responsible for helping the evildoers.

Cao Yu was too lazy to care about this kind of nosy business, so he let him do what he wanted, and when he was leaving the table, he greeted Fu Chenxi and prepared to leave the next day.Fu Chenxi didn't stop him this time, and prepared a lot of things for him to take away, including his gift to the Hua family.

Cao Yu accepted all the orders.
