"What kind of food are you going to cook?" Duan Jingguang asked after pulling out the ingredients in the big and small bags.

Mu Dong rolled up his sleeves and said confidently: "Let's choose simple ones, such as braised pork ribs, chicken soup noodles, and tea eggs."

"Sounds okay."

Mu Dong put the live chickens that were clucking non-stop at his feet, and said in a posture of forming a formation: "Brother Jing, I'll clean up the chickens first, and you can cook tea eggs."

Duan Jingguang was stunned for a while, then hurriedly stopped Mu Dong who was going out, and humbly asked, "Hey Xiao Mu, what should I do with tea eggs?"

In fact, Mu Dong just ate it. He didn't know how to do it, so he could only give the answer for granted: "After the water is boiled, sprinkle a few tea leaves in it, and then put the eggs in and boil it."

Shen Ji was left in the room to practice calligraphy, and seeing his elder brother taking his brother-in-law out to cook dinner, he was really worried: elder brother obviously can't cook, so could it be that elder brother Duan, who looks so great, can cook?

After patiently writing a few more running scripts, he sneaked to the door, opened the curtain and took a look outside: he didn't see anyone.

After walking a few more steps to the door of the kitchen, what I saw with my head was Duan Jingguang, who was wearing an expensive black-bottomed purple-patterned brocade robe and a golden crown on his head. , looking focused and serious, as if he was doing something big.

Shen Ji walked over and asked, "What is Brother Duan doing?"

"I cooked tea eggs for you. Your brother was worried that you would be hungry, so Tete bought so many eggs and boiled them all for your convenience." Duan Jingguang turned to look at Shen Ji and explained.

——This, this is too exaggerated, I'm not a three-year-old who can't do anything and can only wait for adults to feed me!

Shen Ji stepped forward to take a quick look: there are many tea leaves floating in the pot of boiling water. There is too much water, and dozens of eggs are bouncing up and down happily. It is estimated that they will be broken in ten times. .What a pot of simple and rude tea eggs!

I really want to tell this big brother Duan that even the simplest tea eggs should be filled with star anise cinnamon and pepper dark soy sauce, and an appropriate amount of salt and sugar should be added...

It's a pity that I don't know him well, and I'm too embarrassed to speak up. Shen Ji watched anxiously for a long time. Seeing that many eggs had been broken and the egg liquid flowed out. The cleaned chicken came in.

——The description of this chicken is a bit strange, it is naked, and the skin has been removed.Mu Dong noticed Shen Jifa's straight eyes and raised the chicken and explained: "There are too many hairs, and it will take time and effort to pull them out."

Well, it is also a good way.

Shen Ji felt that he had to make a move, and he didn't know what would happen if he let these two people play freely.So under Shen Ji's command, Mu Dong's established menu was still completed, and the three of them sat around, with chicken noodle soup and braised pork ribs, and finished their dinner happily.

Duan Jingguang was very interested tonight. What happened in Mu's house gave him an illusion: it seemed that he and Mu Dong were a real couple. The husband and wife lived together with their single uncle, and the family lived happily Happy and happy...

And this beautiful fantasy will always be shattered.It was late at night, and the Mu brothers were going to rest, and he didn't have any suitable reason to stay, and Mu Dong didn't feel the need to keep him - because he had to go back to Duan's mansion to visit and appease the elderly parents.

"Brother Jing, be careful on the road." Mu Dong stood at the door and ordered.

"Brother Duan, walk slowly, come and sit down often when you are free." Shen Ji sent him off politely and met warmly.

So, in the silent night, there are lights and joys from other people's houses everywhere, and beside him there is only the big black horse that has been with him for many years, silently carrying him on his back, and he can find his way home without any guidance— —Alas... When will such days come to an end?

Returning to the Duan Mansion in the middle of the night and knocking on the door, as soon as he opened the door, he met the boy who was delighted and surprised, took the whip graciously, and took the black horse to the stable; In the snow-covered cloak, the clever little girl pursed her lips and brought hot tea with a smile. Just as she sat down and drank a cup of tea, sure enough, Lady Duan’s confidant, Yunniang, came to invite her with a smile on her face:

"Young master is back. Madam has been talking about you every day. Now that I heard that you are back, she hastily got up after taking a rest and asked Yun Niang to invite the young master to talk to you!"

"Mother has already rested? Then please don't worry about getting up again. Anyway, I'm not in a hurry to leave tomorrow." Duan Jingguang said helplessly.

"That's a good relationship, but Madam Zi has already woken up and is waiting for you to go over. Why don't you go over and sit down?" Yun Niang is about 50 years old and is Madam Duan's dowry girl. According to the rules, she wanted to send the old general She was a concubine in the house, but Yunniang could see clearly. When she was old, she begged Mrs. Duan to betroth her to a young steward in the mansion. That man was Liu Song. After many years of hard work, she finally became Being a relaxed and decent housekeeper, compared to those sisters who became wives after marrying as dowry, life is much more comfortable.

Duan Jingguang had no choice but to get up, and walked towards Dongyuan, asking Yunniang if she was in good health recently?Are you having a good time?For issues like these, try to fulfill your responsibilities as a Son of Man.

"The old lady is in good health, but she is worried about the lifelong affairs of the young master. Yunniang will not hide it from you. The old lady has really broken her heart in the past two years. No, I accompanied the old lady to Hong Kong a few days ago. Going to the Fa Temple and meeting the third girl of the magistrate, she looks so good that I really have nothing to say..."

Listening to Yunniang's chatter with a heavy heart, he arrived in Dongyuan not long after. Duan Jingguang walked to the living room of the main room, saw the door was open and the lamp was in hand, and stepped in to see that Mrs. Duan was wearing a light blue dress. Brocade gown with filigree cloud pattern, sitting on the head with a smile on his face.

"My son, please greet my mother." Duan Jingguang went in and knelt respectfully to pay his respects. This move really won the favor of Mrs. Duan.

"Okay, okay, okay, my son, get up quickly!" Duan's mother got up, lovingly helped the eldest son up, and sat him next to her, firstly stroking his hands and face.

"Oh, why have you lost weight again? There has been another war in the barracks recently, is Jing'er not injured?"

Duan Jingguang broke free from Duan's mother's arms in embarrassment, sat down on the chair at the bottom, and came back after gathering his composure: "Mother, it's nothing, don't worry about it. By the way, my father is sleeping. Is it down?"

"Well, your father's old illness has relapsed in the past few days, and he took a rest after drinking the medicine. How long can he stay this time?" Mother Duan has been disappointed too many times, and she has become accustomed to asking first in recent years.

"The main reason is to come back to see your two elders. I will leave the day after tomorrow. I can't leave because there are too many things in the military camp." He likes to stay in the military camp, where he is free and accompanied by people he cares about.And when they get home, they will face the dilemma of deceiving the elderly.

"Oh..." Duan's mother couldn't hide her disappointment, and then realized that there was not much time, and she had to get the business done first.

"Jing'er, my mother went to the temple to offer incense a few days ago, and met the magistrate's wife. She took her three daughters and watched coldly for my mother for a long time, and found that the girl is still good, good-looking, gentle and virtuous. Ah, I urged you in the early years, and you always said that you were busy with official duties; but no matter how busy you are, you can't delay the important events of your life. Your father is your age, and you are already five years old..."

Duan Jingguang was once again overwhelmed by Duan's mother's long-winded and thoughtful speeches, but he had his own difficulties, and he couldn't say that he already had a relationship with him, so he could only perfunctory his relatives year after year, feeling very sour...

"Jing'er, Jing'er! Are you listening to what mother is saying?" After Duan's mother finished speaking, her mouth was dry and she had to pick up a teacup to moisten her throat. Staring at the blue, white and red plum vase in the corner, he looked in a trance.

"Oh, I'm listening, mother, don't worry, you can't force this matter. Didn't Xiaoyuan give you two big fat grandchildren? That's not enough for you to worry about." The only thing that is gratifying is that Duan Jingguang still There is a younger brother, Duan Yuanguang, who married a wife and had children three years ago.

"Yuan'er is Yuan'er, you are you! Don't you need to get married and have children? Jing'er, tell mother honestly, do you already have a crush on someone? Then you can bring it up. Mother doesn't care about her family background and family background. No, as long as it is a child with a good character from an innocent family!" Duan's mother gritted her teeth and promised cruelly.

She felt that the elder son was getting more and more strange. When he first grew into a handsome young man, he was very gentle and careless to the maid around him. Overcome him and ordered him not to spend all his thoughts on his children's personal affairs.

——At the beginning, she tried every means to stop her, lest her son would become a licentious person, unable to support the lintel of the general's mansion; in recent years, things have gotten worse. It seems that her son has been treated a little too much, and he has turned into a A posture of asceticism!

Duan Jingguang had been suppressed for too long in his heart, and he really didn't want to lie anymore, so he chose to confess:

"Mother, there is indeed someone in my son's heart. He has been in love with him for eight years, but that person is far from what mother always expects, so my son has never dared to say it, for fear that you will be angry!"

Duan's mother was shocked: "It's really like this? Then which family's lady is she? How old is this year?"

Duan Jingguang smiled: "He is 24 years old, a child of an innocent and ordinary family, with an absolutely upright character, and his son has admired him for many years."

"24? Jing'er, isn't she engaged, or married to someone else?" Duan's mother was terrified, my son, this is really amazing...

"Never, he's not yet married, so my son is not so stupid." Duan Jingguang felt a little bit in his heart when he fantasized that he had been infatuated with a certain young woman in his boudoir for many years.

"Then what?"

"His parents died young and kept filial piety for many years, and there was a young brother at home who had to be supported and dragged, so he stayed until 24 without getting married." Angry.

"Oh, from this point of view, she is a kind and righteous person! What kind of girl is it? Mother will help you palm your eyes and make peace with me?" Forget it, only the son is willing, and almost innocent girls are also willing to do it first. Let's marry and come in, if this drags on, there will be more ugly rumors about the young master of the Duan family.

Duan Jingguang calmly refused: "Mother, don't worry, wait for your son to get some air with him first, I don't know if he likes his son, this matter has to be taken slowly!"

When I meet Mu Dong next time, I must make my heart clear. Anyway, Shen Ji and Jiang Feng are involved at the moment, Mu Dong is in a state of desperation, and Duan Jingguang's idea is to fish in troubled waters.
