Everyone chatted for a while more. When He Jiong saw that it was only twelve o'clock, he asked, It's only 12 o'clock. Are we resting or playing games?"
" Play games for a while before sleeping," Huang Lei said.
" Sure. Are you guys playing poker or chess?" He Jiong asked.
Fight the Landlord! Deng Chao suggested.
"Fight the Landlord is great! "Bring me along to play," Chen Zixin said excitedly.
" Go to the side. Go home and sleep," Huang Lei hurriedly stopped him.
" I'm just going back to sleep. You don't have a share," He Jiong said anxiously.
" Hmph, so be it. I don't care to play." Chen Zixin walked out of the mushroom house while snorting." No, why didn't you bring Xin to play poker? Doesn't he know how to play?"
He Jiong said resentfully," Chao, if Zixin doesn't know how to play cards, there's no one in the mushroom house who knows how to play cards. Let me tell you, if you play cards with Zixin, you won't even know how you lost."
" Why? Is he very good at cards? Xiaoming Huang asked.
Have you seen the God of Gamblers?" He Jiong said.
" I've seen it. It's pretty good," Deng Chao said.
" Zixin's playing skills are quite good. He shuffles the cards and can give him all the cards he wants, so don't play with him. Otherwise, you'll lose badly," He Jiong explained.
" That's amazing. Does Zixin like to play cards?" Xiaoming Huang said in surprise.
" Zixin doesn't like it. He shuffled the cards just to practice the flexibility of his fingers. He's not interested in the cards, but he's very interested in playing chess with him," He Jiong said.
" Don't. Playing chess with him is torture. Didn't you see how good Xiaohu is? I don't have the guts to do that," Deng Chao quickly said.
" I don't have the guts either. I'm not like Teacher Huang, who has the guts to challenge the talents that Zixin taught," Xiaoming Huang said calmly.
" Sigh, don't say anymore. My heart is very fragile right now. Why can't I control my hands? What kind of chess are we playing?" Huang Lei said with a bitter expression.
He Jiong and the others laughed when they heard that. He Jiong said,"Let's go! Let's go in and play cards for a while before resting."
The few of them nodded and walked into the house. He Jiong took out his poker cards and everyone started playing. Chen Zixin returned home and went to the study room to write a novel for a while before stopping. He tidied up and went downstairs to the courtyard. He went to the stable to feed the horse before closing the door and leaving the house. He walked to the square to see if he had missed anything.
Chen Zixin came to the square and carefully inspected the stage several times. After confirming that there was no problem, he walked back to the mushroom house.
Chen Zixin returned to the mushroom house and found that everyone had gone to rest. He lay on the swing chair alone and closed his eyes to rest.
Just as Chen Zixin was resting comfortably with his eyes closed, the phone in the mushroom house rang. When Chen Zixin heard the sound, he quickly got up and walked into the house to answer the call. Hello, this is the mushroom house."
"Mushroom house, right? I'm your guest today."
Hello, hello."
Hello, I want to order."
" Alright, what would you like to order?"
I'll order a hot and sour shredded potato and hand-grabbed mutton. Just these two."
Alright, Yaya, I understand."
" Who's Yaya?
" Yaya is a beauty. She can cook in the hall, and she's a good wife and mother!"
You're wrong. I'm not."
"Hand-grabbed mutton is good! "Ya Ya, you're so nice. I just wanted to eat mutton, so you ordered it. When you come over, I'll slaughter the lamb," Chen Zixin teased.
" Chen Zixin, why are you so devilish? You want to slaughter a sheep?"
Ya Ya, you've been exposed. How did you know I'm Chen Zixin?"
Stinky Zixin, you're amazing."
I'm not teasing you anymore. Where's Yaya?"
I'm already at the village entrance. I'll be there in a few minutes."
Alright, bye."
" Bye-bye." Chen Zixin hung up the phone after hearing that. He walked out of the house and went to the swing chair in the courtyard to continue lying down.
Tong Liya pulled her luggage and walked on the road, revealing a sweet smile on her face as she said," Zixin, we meet again. I definitely won't give up this time. I like you." After Tong Liya finished speaking, she quickened her pace and walked to the mushroom house. Zixin, open the door."
Chen Zixin heard the voice and quickly got up to open the door." Yaya, okay!"
" Hello, Zixin." Tong Liya smiled sweetly.
Chen Zixin smiled and glanced at Tong Liya's huge suitcase."Yaya, your suitcase is not small! You even moved your house here!"
"No!" said Tong Liya. I didn't move."
"Let's go!" Chen Zixin said. Come and stay at my place! " Your room is still available." After Chen Zixin finished speaking, he pulled his luggage and walked home. Tong Liya smiled blissfully and followed after him.
Chen Zixin brought Tong Liya home and settled her down. The two of them had just come out of the room. After resting, they came downstairs and saw Tong Liya asking joyfully," Sister Yaya, why are you here?"
Tong Liya smiled and said,"I'm a guest at the mushroom house."
Reba said happily,"Really, we can sleep together tonight."
"Sure! "Let's have a good chat," Tong Liya said with a smile.
Chen Zixin said,"You two go to the mushroom house first. I'll go out for a while."
"Where are we going? "We want to go too," Tong Liya said happily.
" What are you going to do? You guys go and rest. I'll ride a horse over. You two can't ride a horse. Be good and listen to me. Wait for me at the mushroom house. I'll be right back," Chen Zixin said gently. He led the horse out, got on the horse, and ran over.
" Sister Yaya, let me ask you a question. Answer me seriously," Reba said seriously.
" What's the problem? Tell me," Tong Liya said with a smile.
" Are you in love with Little Wolf?" Reba teased.
" Reba, I don't like him. Don't spout nonsense," Tong Liya said with a flustered expression.
" Sister Yaya, don't deny it. It's written all over your face. I'm not the only one who knows. Sister Yifei, Sister Mi, Senior Martial Sister Shi, Sister Xiaogu, and Sister Tangtang all know that you like him. We don't blame you. It's normal for you to like him. He's too outstanding, so outstanding that it's fascinating. We've already agreed to marry him together, so just admit it!" Reba giggled.
" What do you mean by marrying him together? What are you guys thinking?" Tong Liya asked in surprise.
"We all like him. We agreed to marry him together. Since the country allows it, you can join us! "Instead of liking him in silence, it's better to say it out loud. The wolf cub is very passive. If you don't take the initiative, you'll miss it. Do you really think the wolf cub can't see through your thoughts?" Reba said.
" Zixin saw through it. How did he see through it?" Tong Liya asked.
"Wolf Cub is Young Master Wushuang. He knows us very well. The reason why he didn't make it clear was that he didn't want to hurt anyone. He was afraid that it would be unfair to you and me. Sister Yifei and the others confessed on their own initiative. If you don't take the initiative, you will miss your life. Brother Hu once told us that in Wolf Cub's heart, the person he likes is his reverse scale. He can hide his edge for the person he likes, or he can unsheathe his sword for the person he likes. A person like him is worth having. Oh right. Do you know how much money Little Lang gave Sister Yifei and I each in a bank card?" Reba said with a smile.
" How much is it?" Tong Liya asked.
"A whole 100 million. He said that he would hand over all his money after he got married and would not hide any private money. However, Little Lang is a little chauvinistic. The last time I saw him at the Running Man, I asked him to help with the competition. His phone ran out of credit, so he asked me to pay for it. You don't know how embarrassed he was at that time. He even returned the money to me after he came back. I had no choice but to accept it. However, Little Lang is very stingy to himself, but he is very generous to us."Look at the clothes and shoes he's wearing. They don't cost more than 200 yuan. If he gives us 100 million yuan, he'll go to a signing event this Friday. Sister Yifei and I have discussed it with each other. We're going to give Little Lang a good outfit, but we have to hide it from him. Otherwise, he'll run away," Reba said.
"100 million is too generous! "He's too rich. Didn't you guys say why we had to hide it from him when we brought him to buy clothes? Why did he run away?" Tong Liya said.
"Little Wolf doesn't like to buy clothes. Even if he wants to buy clothes, he will go to the night market stalls. He doesn't have high requirements for clothing, food, and accommodation. Last time, Sister Yifei and the others went to participate in a jewelry store's promotional activities. The organizer booked a presidential suite for Sister Yifei and the others. Even so, Little Wolf said it was extravagant. Later, Sister Yifei and the others brought Little Wolf to Brother Hu's restaurant for dinner. Little Wolf even paid the bill. Later, when they returned to the hotel, Sister Yifei and the others teased Little Wolf. They wanted to ask Wolf Cub to stay in their room, but Wolf Cub didn't dare to stay. He just gave them acupuncture point massages that could help them sleep. He booked a standard room to sleep. Wolf Cub might say some fancy words sometimes, but if we dared to tease him, he would become listless. He didn't dare to touch us. Even if you slept with him on the same bed, he would at most hug you to sleep. He wouldn't cross that red line."He's even more Liu Xiahui than Liu Xiahui," grumbled Hot Ba.
" If it wasn't for Zixin, why would he be so low-key? He even paid for Big Brother Hu's restaurant and didn't dare to lay on the same bed as you guys? Is he incapable? Besides, don't tell me you guys aren't attractive to him?" Tong Liya asked.
"Little Wolf is very low-key. He will pay for his meal at Brother Hu's restaurant. Brother Hu has explained that Little Wolf doesn't want to take advantage of us. He doesn't want to become unambitious because of this mentality. Brother Hu said that Little Wolf doesn't mind at home, but when he goes out, whether it's a restaurant he knows or Brother Hu's own restaurant, he will pay for his meal without any discount. It doesn't matter when he's at home. As for why Little Wolf doesn't dare to lay his hands on us in bed, it's not because we're unattractive. It was Lang Lang who had his own principles. He was very traditional. He wouldn't touch anyone unless they got married. He respected us very much. Sister Yifei once said that they had lived in Lang Lang's house in Hengdian for a few years, but Lang Lang had never entered their room. If Sister Yifei and the others took a bath at home, Lang Lang would go out for a few hours before coming back. To put it in a hooligan's words, even if we were naked and lying on the bed now, he wouldn't dare to look at us. Little Wolf's willpower is very strong, and he can be as calm as still water. Sister Yaya, let me tell you this. Little Wolf is a good man. Don't miss it! "We don't mind. If you don't take the initiative, you'll regret it to death," Reba said seriously.
" You guys really don't mind me? asked Tong Liya.
"I don't mind at all. We all know that you like him. Sister Yaya, take the initiative to confess! We've already said that we'll serve him together on our wedding night. With his abnormal body and physical strength, we can't handle him alone. Just give in! "We'll serve him together on our wedding night," she said lustfully.
"Ah, you guys are thinking too much! "Will he be able to serve him together? Tong Liya said shyly.
"How can his abnormal physical fitness not work? He can run 20 kilometers with a weight of 200 pounds. "Sister Yaya, you're going to have a hard time on your wedding night," Reba teased.
" Fatty Di, you're too lecherous. No, I have to brainwash you." After Tong Liya finished speaking, she went to tease Reba. Reba quickly dodged, and the two of them chased each other around for a while before arriving at the mushroom house.
When Tong Liya arrived at the mushroom house, Huang Lei and the others hurriedly greeted her. He Jiong smiled and asked, Yaya, when did you come? We didn't get a call."
" I came for a while. Zixin picked up the call," Tong Liya said with a smile.
" I see. By the way, what did you order?" He Jiong asked.
" A hot and sour shredded potato and hand-grabbed mutton," Tong Liya said.
" Hand-grabbed mutton is great. I'll go and slaughter the lamb now. Yaya, you're so good. I finally have a chance to slaughter the lamb," Huang Lei said excitedly.
" Teacher Huang, you and Zixin are indeed uncle and nephew. Your thoughts are the same. When he heard that I ordered hand-grabbed mutton, he wanted to slaughter the lamb. Isn't this a common problem of chefs? They want to cook the lamb when they see it," Tong Liya asked.
" Haha, that's a common problem for chefs. They want to cook the ingredients they see," Huang Lei said with a laugh.
He Jiong asked,"Zixin, why didn't he come with you guys?"
" Zixin went out on a horse. I don't know where he went," Tong Liya said.
Didn't he tell you where he was going?" Huang Lei asked.
" No, he only said that he was going out for a while and didn't allow us to follow him," Reba said.
" Then he's probably dealing with something. We'll talk about it when he comes back," Huang Lei said.
Reba and the others nodded and said, Teacher Huang, shouldn't we prepare dinner for tonight?"
" It's already past two o'clock. It's time to prepare. What do you guys want to eat?" Huang Lei asked.
" Think about it. Deng Chao's three-cup chicken, Sun Li's boiled vegetables, Xiaoming's braised pork, Qiao En's tomato fish, Yaya's shredded potatoes, and hand-grabbed mutton. There are already six dishes, so we won't order. Wait for Zixin to come back and discuss how to deal with it," He Jiong said.
"Alright then! "Let's wait for Zixin to come back and discuss what dishes he'll cook," Huang Lei said.
He Jiong nodded, and the sound of horse hooves could be heard. Huang Lei said, Our Zixin is back."
He Jiong and the others laughed. Chen Zixin dismounted from his horse and walked in with a basket of fruits." Come, Little Cutie, you two wash the fruits." Chen Zixin handed the fruits over.
Reba and his sister took the fruits and washed them. Chen Zixin came to the pavilion and sat down to drink a mouthful of tea. Chen Zixin put down the teacup and asked Tong Liya with a smile, Yaya, were you sent here by my brother and sister?"
" No, I was invited over as usual," Tong Liya said with a smile.
"Is that so? "Then should I call my brother and ask him what you think?" Chen Zixin said with a faint smile.
"Ask away! "But turn on the speaker. I'll listen," Tong Liya said.
Chen Zixin smiled as he took out his phone and dialed Brother Hu's number. Soon, the call went through. Yo, my precious little brother, you're finally willing to call his brother."
When Chen Zixin heard this, he immediately covered his face. Huang Lei and the others held back their laughter.
Chen Zixin said,"Brother, can we not call each other so intimately?"
" Yo, you're still shy? What's the matter?"
Brother, did you send Yaya over?"
Kid, you guessed it."
"Is there a need to guess? She brought a huge suitcase with her when she came. It must be my sister's idea!"
Hehe, that's right, it was your sister's idea."
I knew it was my sister. Only she would use this method to deal with me. I'm not criticizing you, but why can't you even control your own wife?"
Brother, how do you want your brother to manage me?"
Sis, you're beside me!"
Are you unhappy that I'm here?"
"Sister, look at what you're saying. Why am I unhappy? "Let me tell you, your idea is too good. It's simply unprecedented and will never come again. It's perfect."
Look at you. Since you've guessed it, are you coming or not?"
Sis, give me a few days to think about it. Even if I want to go, I have to arrange my work properly."
"Alright then! "I'll give you time to think about it. By the way, your brother and I happen to be free at your signing event on Friday. We'll go over to support you. You'll pay for the round-trip tickets, food, and accommodation."
Alright, I'll take care of everything. I'll cook a meal for you."
That's more like it. Alright, talk to your precious brother!"
Sister, when did I ever call you Baby Brother?"
" Tch, haven't you shouted enough?
Alright, pass the phone to my brother."
Brother Hu, your precious little brother is calling you."
" Brother, how was it?"
" I'll arrange the work at hand. When are you guys going to do it?"
" It'll be held at the end of the month in Shanghai.
I know, Brother. You ordered a suit for me."
I ordered a set for you and got Ya Ya to bring it over."
I know, Brother. How's my book from last time?"
" Dalinzi agreed. Li Meng said he wants you to personally take action."
"Alright then! I'll do it personally, brother. I want to release Ghost Blows Out the Light in a while."
"Release it! Send it over and I'll settle it with the publishing firm."
"No need, brother. I've talked to Xindi. They'll help me publish my books in the future."
"You're good, kid! How's your wuxia novel coming along?"
I can finish it by the end of the month. I'll bring it to you at the end of the month."
Alright, but I want a handwritten draft."
Sure, I have a script that's finished at the end of the month. I'll bring it over for you to take a look."
" A script? A movie?
" It's a movie script. Brother, let me exaggerate. This script is my favorite and I've been writing it for three years."
Yo, you've put in a lot of effort. Bring it to me at the end of the month."
Alright, that's it. Bye."
"Bye bye."
Chen Zixin hung up the phone and said," Yaya, how is it? My precious big brother said so. Don't hold on anymore."
"Alright then! "It was sent by your brother," Tong Liya said.
"Didn't I say so? There must be something wrong with such a big suitcase. You have the suit my brother gave me, the oranges my sister brought me, my favorite book in Hengdian's study, and the rest are your luggage. Am I right?! Chen Zixin said lightly.
" Impressive. Your brother said that as long as you read that book, you have to agree even if you don't want to," Tong Liya said.
" Give me the book tonight. I have to sleep with it," Chen Zixin said.
" I'll give it to you tonight, but how much do you like that book?" Tong Liya asked.
" That book was the first time I earned money to buy it, so it's a memorable one. Also, that book was my brother's way of coaxing me to sleep. Do you understand?!" Chen Zixin said.
" I understand. No wonder Big Brother Hu wrapped it in three layers when he handed it to me," Tong Liya said.
Chen Zixin chuckled and changed the topic. Uncle, I'll cook tonight. Please help me out."
" You said you'll do it? All of it? Huang Lei asked.
" I'll do everything. You just need to help me out. I'll let you rest for the day. I'll still need you to host the meeting tonight," Chen Zixin said with a smile.
" Hai, since you said you're going to cook, I'll help you out. Haha, let's go. The two of us will go to the warehouse to get the vegetables. Teacher He will bring them to work. Zixin will be the one cooking tonight. Let's go, Zixin!" Huang Lei left after saying that.
Chen Zixin hurriedly got up and followed. He Jiong smiled and said,"Everyone, go to work! Haha, tonight's dishes are all at the standard of a national banquet. Just thinking about it makes me excited."
" Let's go, let's go. Hurry up and get to work. I'll eat more tonight." Deng Chao hurriedly walked out after saying that.
He Jiong smiled and led his men out. They quickly went to the seedling field to transplant the rice seedlings. Chen Zixin and Huang Lei came to the warehouse and quickly took out the ingredients. The two of them carried big and small bags and walked towards the mushroom.
When they passed by the farmland where He Jiong and the others were transplanting rice seedlings, Chen Zixin shouted," Teacher He, how's the work going? When will it end?"
" Soon. We'll be able to finish planting the last mu of rice seedlings at five or six o'clock," He Jiong said.
" I understand. Try to be quick and have dinner earlier tonight. We still have a meeting to discuss it," Chen Zixin said.
" Got it. It won't delay anything," He Jiong said.
Chen Zixin nodded and returned to the mushroom house with Huang Lei. The two of them began to work. The division of labor was clear. Chen Zixin would cut and wash the vegetables while Huang Lei would cook.
Time passed by slowly. When the workers returned from the paddy field, Huang Lei called out," Hurry up and wash up. Zixin is just short of a serving of hot and sour potatoes."
He Jiong and the others quickly washed up and sat in the pavilion. Chen Zixin scooped out the sour and spicy shredded potatoes and said," Come over and bring the dishes over. I'll go get the wine." After Chen Zixin said that, he went home to get the wine.
Huang Lei and the others brought the dishes over. Everyone looked at the dishes on the table and could not help but swallow their saliva. Deng Chao swallowed his saliva and said, No, this dish smells too good. I can't even hold back my saliva."
" You can't hold back your saliva. I'm already drooling," Xiaoming Huang said.
" Zixin's cooking is so beautiful. Look at the flowers carved from the radish. They look so real. No, I have to take a photo and post it in the group." Sun Li quickly took out her phone and took a photo.
" I have to take photos too. I'll make Chen He and the others envious," Deng Chao said.
" I'll take a photo too and post it on WeChat Moments." Xiaoming Huang took out his phone and started taking photos.
"…" Just as everyone was taking photos, Chen Zixin walked over with two bottles of wine and said," Here, a bottle of 15-year-old grape wine and a bottle of kiwifruit wine that I brewed two years ago. It's just nice that the time is up today; try it."
" Yo, we tasted a new wine today. Peng Peng, hurry up and pour the wine," Huang Lei called out.
Peng Peng quickly opened the wine, and a wave of wine fragrance immediately spread out. Everyone was surprised," D * mn, this wine is too fragrant. Zixin, your brewing skills are top-notch."
" Zixin, how strong is this wine? Can we women drink it?" Sun Li asked.
" It's about 15 degrees Celsius. You girls can drink it. It has beauty benefits, weight loss, and digestive effects," Chen Zixin explained.
" That's good. Come, come. Us girls will drink this. You guys can drink the wine!" Sun Li said.
" Come, Peng Peng, quickly pour the wine. I can't hold it in anymore," Huang Lei said.
Peng Peng quickly poured wine for everyone. Huang Xiaoming saw that he did not pour wine for Chen Zixin and asked Peng Peng,"" Peng Peng, why aren't you pouring wine for your brother?
" My brother never drinks. His master has a rule that forbids him from drinking. He says it affects his martial arts. We all know that," Peng Peng explained.
" I see. Zixin won't be able to enjoy it anymore. I can drink more," Xiaoming Huang said with a laugh.
Chen Zixin and the others smiled. Huang Lei invited everyone to eat and drink. Everyone had a good meal. After everyone cleaned up, they sat in the pavilion drinking tea and chatting after eating to their hearts 'content. Deng Chao said, I ate the most today. I actually ate three bowls of rice."
" It's mainly because Zixin's dishes are too delicious. Even though I don't usually eat meat, I ate a lot of braised pork," Sun Li said.
" What about me? I've already used the soup to eat it," Xiaoming Huang said.
" Didn't I eat a lot of rice with soup? Zixin, why didn't I see any fish bones in the tomato fish you made?" Chen Qiaoen asked.
" I've already shaved them off so that everyone can eat without worry," Chen Zixin said.
" You're amazing. You can actually shave off all the fish bones. How did you do it?" Chen Qiaoen said admiringly.
" How should I put it? You can practice your knife skills every day since you were eight. When I first started learning this dish, the master asked me to kill more than ten fish every day. It took me two weeks to meet the requirements. Even so, I was reprimanded by the master," Chen Zixin said.
" It's already very good that you met the requirements in two weeks. Why is your master so strict with you?" Chen Qiaoen asked.
" Extremely strict. My uncle should know that if I slack off one day, my punishment will be quite harsh," Chen Zixin said.
" That's right. His master is very strict with Zixin. If Zixin slacks off even a little, he'll make Zixin do the horse stance on the water tank for a long time. If he accidentally falls into the water tank, Zixin will have to do the horse stance in wet clothes. When his clothes are dry, he'll come down to eat," Huang Lei explained.
"My God, your master is too ruthless to you! Don't you feel bitter when you have to wear wet clothes and do the horse stance, not on the narrow side of a water tank? Chen Qiaoen asked with concern.
" This isn't bitter. This is sweet. I'm already sick of it," Chen Zixin said nonchalantly.
" You're tired of playing around and you're treating punishment as a game. Do you have masochistic genes?" Deng Chao asked.
" A little. My master once took me to the mountains for survival training. He let me live alone in the mountains for half a month, but he didn't interfere. I had to solve the problem myself. I really have the masochistic genes. He told me to survive for half a month before I came out. I survived for a month before I came out," Chen Zixin said calmly.
" With my brain, how could you have such a masochistic gene? How did you manage to live in the mountains for a month? How old were you when you trained?" Deng Chao asked.
"Isn't it easy? "When I'm thirsty, I drink spring water. When I'm hungry, I eat wild fruits. Otherwise, I catch fish, catch pheasants, and roast them. When I'm sleepy, I go up a tree to sleep. I still have to pick herbs and boil them for myself. Don't be too carefree. I'm so happy that I don't even think about home. I was only seven years old at that time," Chen Zixin said.
" Seven years old? Are you kidding me?! Deng Chao asked.
" Zixin wasn't joking. When he came out of the mountains, his master and I went to pick him up. Other than his torn clothes, he was fine and very excited. After I went home and found out about it, I was angry at his master for the first time. Why would he think of letting a seven-year-old live in the mountains? After I slowly understood, I wanted to beat Zixin up," Huang Lei said.
What do you mean by beating up Zixin? Were you that angry back then?" He Jiong asked.
" I wasn't the only one who wanted to beat him up. Even Sun Li wanted to beat him up. This brat entered the mountain voluntarily to train. I was so angry at that time. This brat actually treated training as a game. You don't even know what he said when he came out. I still remember it even now," Huang Lei said.
" What did you say? You remembered it for so long," He Jiong and the others asked.
" He said that this training is much more interesting than watching your windmill. He didn't have enough fun," Huang Lei said gloomily.
" No, I'm dizzy now. Are you stupid to treat it as a game?" He Jiong asked.
" I have goosebumps. I was still in school when I was seven," Deng Chao said.
"Aren't we all in school? Aren't you afraid, Zixin?" Chen Qiaoen asked.
" What's there to be afraid of? Let me tell you, it's very interesting in the mountains at night. You can hear the nightingales, see the stars, and even see fireflies. I'm still wandering around the mountains alone at night. By the way, do you guys want to experience it? I'll take you guys out to play," Chen Zixin said with a smile.
" Don't. We're not as bold as you. We'd better forget about it. We don't have the fortune to enjoy it," He Jiong and the others said while shaking their heads.
Chen Zixin complained,"You're so timid to not participate in such fun things."
Everyone was speechless when they heard that. Chen Zixin changed the topic and said," Uncle, can we go in for the meeting? We have to hurry up and decide."
" Let's go in for a meeting." Huang Lei entered the house after she finished speaking. Chen Zixin and the others also entered the house and sat down.
"Sister, take notes of the meeting," Huang Lei said.
The younger sister nodded and went to take a pen washi over to sit down. Huang Lei said," We're having a meeting now. The theme is the bonfire party. If anyone has any questions or suggestions, we'll discuss and resolve them."
" I have a question. Who's going to inform the people who are coming over to play?" He Jiong asked.
" Leave this to Reba and my sister. The two of you are responsible for informing everyone," Huang Lei said.
" Alright, we'll be in charge of informing them," Reba said.
" Then how are we going to solve the accommodation problem for these people?" Deng Chao asked.
" I'll take care of it. The mushroom house and my house can both be used. My horse farm has a house for tourists to rest in. There are dozens of rooms inside that are enough to live in. It's clean and sanitary," Chen Zixin said.
" Then the accommodation problem has been solved. I saw the stage today. Should we decorate it?" Deng Chao said.
" I've already discussed this with the production team. We'll be responsible for settling it. The money will come out of nowhere," He Jiong said.
"Oh, I see. Then Teacher He can't be the only host, right? At the very least, a man and a woman should be compatible!
" Let Yaya do it. She hosted the Spring Festival Gala before, so there won't be a problem," Huang Lei said.
" Yaya, you hosted the Spring Festival Gala before. You're amazing," Chen Zixin said in surprise.
" How is it? You didn't expect it, did you?"
" I didn't expect it. Amazing. Are you willing to host it?"
" Hai, since your Young Master Wushuang has spoken, how can I refuse?"
I have a lot of face. Do you want money?"
"Hey, you're really stingy. I don't want money, okay? Can you make me a meal?"
" No problem. By the way, do you have any suggestions for Mushroom Hut to be released?" Chen Zixin asked.
"A show? Let me sing a song! He Jiong said.
" Then I'll work with Dalinzi," Huang Lei said.
" I'll sing a song too," Xiaoming Huang said.
" Sure. Deng Chao, Sun Li, why don't you and your wife dance together?" Chen Zixin asked.
" Good idea. Deng Chao, Sun Li, you two can dance together," Huang Lei said.
"Alright then! "But Deng Chao, you can't play tricks," Sun Li said.
" Definitely not," Deng Chao said.
" Then, Peng Peng, what are you going to perform?" Chen Zixin asked.
" Bro, I learned a magic trick recently. I'll perform it," Peng Peng said.
Alright, where's my sister?"
"Brother, I can't. I'll just sing a little. Forget it."
Just a little. It's okay. We're not competing; we're just having fun. There's no need to be so serious.
"Alright then! "But I want to invite my friend over. I'll work with her, is that okay?"
Sure, you'll be responsible for this matter."
" No problem."
Little Daddy, why don't you do a Xijiang dance?"
Don't. I haven't danced for so many years. I've almost forgotten."
"Are you trying to scare me? You've been learning since you were young. Are you embarrassed to say that you've forgotten? "It's settled then. Little Sister, remember it," Chen Zixin said domineeringly.
Reba leaned on the table angrily after hearing that. Chen Zixin smiled and said, Qiao En, why don't you sing a song?"
"Alright! "I sing," Chen Qiaoen said with a smile.
" Zixin, we all have performances. What are you performing?" Tong Liya asked.
"I've prepared everything. My sister has also sent over my seven-stringed zither. That day, I played the Smiling Proud in the Pugilistic World. Uncle, can you help me find someone to bring it forward by one day? I want to train with him." Chen Zixin said.
" Alright, leave this to me," Huang Lei said.
Zixin, do you have any rules here?" Xiaoming Huang asked.
" Yes, everyone who comes to the bonfire party will drink a bowl of welcome wine. This is a must. This is the custom of our village and also a way to welcome guests," Chen Zixin said.
" How about this? How strong is the wine?" Xiaoming Huang asked.
" It's home-brewed rice wine. It doesn't have much alcohol content," Chen Zixin said.
" That's good. What other rules are there?"
" It's the rules. You have to finish the welcome drink in one go. You can't leave any wine behind. That's impolite," Chen Zixin said.
" Got it," Xiaoming Huang said.
" Reba, sister, explain this rule clearly when you notify them. Don't make things awkward," Huang Lei said.
Reba and his sister nodded and He Jiong asked, Zixin, what's so fun about that day?"
" There'll be hoops, archery, riddles, and clay figurines. At night, there'll be a fireworks show and a barbecue. When it's time, we'll invite someone to light up the bonfire in the square. Then, everyone will dance around the bonfire and play. It's very lively. Oh right, Peng Peng, dress up a little better that day. It'll be good for you," Chen Zixin said.
" Brother, what do you mean?" Peng Peng asked.
"There will be a lot of beautiful girls coming over to play at night. If a girl is interested in a guy, she will give away the purse she embroidered personally. Then, the relationship between the two of them will be settled. Let me tell you, the girls in our village and the nearby villages are all beautiful. They are good at cooking and have a good temper. They are gentle and virtuous. They are definitely the best candidates for a wife. When the time comes, dress up handsomely. By the way, don't stutter when you speak and don't keep smiling foolishly."If there's a girl you like and you can perform, the chances of success are very high," Chen Zixin said.
" Brother, there's such a good thing. I have to go. I have to study hard these few days and strive for success," Peng Peng said excitedly.
" Zixin, have you encountered such a good thing before?" Deng Chao asked.
" I've met them before. When I came back from the army these past two years, a group of girls surrounded me at the bonfire party. Everyone was so envious," Chen Zixin said smugly.
" Then did you receive the purse?" Reba asked worriedly.
" There were quite a few girls who gave me wallets, but I didn't accept any of them," Chen Zixin said.
" Why don't you want it?" Reba asked.
"It's unnecessary for you to ask this question. I've promised to marry you since I was young. Am I that kind of person who goes back on his word? Chen Zixin said seriously.
" Hmph, at least you're honest. You still remember the agreement," Reba snorted. However, he was happy in his heart!
" But Zixin can do it. He can stick to his heart for more than ten years. He can even reject girls from France," He Jiong said.
" Of course. Besides, I just treat that French girl as a patient. I don't have any other thoughts," Chen Zixin said with a smug smile.
"Zixin, don't you regret it? "She's the daughter of a noble family," Deng Chao asked.
" What's there to regret? If I don't have feelings for her, then I don't have feelings for her. Forget about the fact that she's the daughter of a noble. Even if she's the daughter of a foreign president, I won't do it," Chen Zixin said seriously.
" Zixin, you're really not bad. It's not easy to maintain your true self for so long," Xiaoming Huang said.
" Zixin, did something happen between you and her?" Deng Chao asked with a smirk.
" No, other than treating my illness, I've been fine," Chen Zixin said.
" D * mn, are you incapable? You're still fine?" Deng Chao said in surprise.
"Can a man say no? " I didn't see a woman here who could say such things," Chen Zixin said, embarrassed.
" This question is indeed awkward. Right, let's continue discussing the problem. Do you have any other questions?" Deng Chao asked.
I don't think so!" He Jiong said.
I don't think so!"
“……”。
"No, I'll say a few words. Try not to drive here when you come. The square will be filled with tables. "There's no place to park the car, so it's best to take a taxi over. Oh right, bring some vegetables over. We have to go out. Uncle, I'll discuss the menu with you in the next few days. Let's work it out," Chen Zixin said.
" We can take a taxi. We'll bring some vegetables over," Deng Chao and the others said.
" Alright, Zixin, let's discuss it over the next two days," Huang Lei said.
Chen Zixin nodded and looked at the time.""It's only 8:30. Do you have any suggestions? If not, the meeting is over."
" No, the meeting is over," Huang Lei said.
He Jiong said,"Zixin, why don't you perform a show for us?"
" Yes, Zixin's performance. Let's take a look," Deng Chao and the others said.
" Sure. Do you want to listen to the guzheng, the erhu, or the flute?" Chen Zixin asked.
" We've heard you play the guzheng and the erhu online, but we've never heard of the flute. Why don't you play the flute?" Xiaoming Huang said.
"Flute, right? "I'll go get it." After saying that, Chen Zixin left the mushroom house and went home to get the flute.
" I'm going to make a new cup of tea for my family. Sister, go get some oranges," Huang Lei said.
" Okay, I'll go get it," the younger sister said and went to get the oranges.
" Why? Does Zixin need to drink tea and eat oranges for his performance?" Deng Chao asked.
" Yes, that's his hobby. He's been used to it for more than ten years. Zixin really likes to eat oranges," He Jiong explained.
" He has this hobby. It's quite special," Sun Li said.
" I can't call you Young Master Wu Ming or Young Master Wu Shuang," Huang Xiaoming said.
" But Zixin's pen names are quite interesting. They all address themselves as Young Masters. Look, Young Master Wushuang, Young Master Wuming, Young Master Yu, and Young Master Tianyu," Sun Li said.
" Indeed, but how did Young Master Tianyu think of it?" Deng Chao asked.
" This is Little Lang, a house in Hengdian. His study room is named after him. Brother Hu guessed that it was Zi Xin's painting, The Legend of Qin, based on this name," Reba explained.
" It's just that Brother Hu knows Zixin too well. He can guess the name of the study room. Impressive," Sun Li said.
" How could I not be? Brother Hu is Zixin's precious brother. I don't even know how Zixin called him that. Jianing has never been called Brother Hu before," He Jiong teased.
" Haha, that can't be helped. The two of them are in love, and Jianing isn't jealous," Huang Lei said.
" These two brothers are really close. They're even closer than real brothers. Many people on the Internet are saying that the two of them should be together," Sun Li said.
" Don't. If my sister hears this, she'll rip off my ears and fry them with chili. I'd better not provoke my sister," Chen Zixin said as he walked into the house with his flute.
" Here's the flute. What song will Zixin perform?" Huang Lei asked.
" I'll perform a song that I spent three years writing. He can play it with many instruments," Chen Zixin said.
" It took three years to write this song. We have to listen to it carefully," Huang Lei and the others said.
Chen Zixin smiled and said,"Where's my tea and oranges?"
" Here, this is the tea I brought this time. Have a drink." Huang Lei handed him a cup of tea.
Chen Zixin caught it with both hands and sniffed it."Uncle, not bad! Where did you get this high-foam tea? I haven't had this tea in years. Which old tea house did you buy it from?"
"Sure! You can tell from the smell that I asked a friend to buy this. You haven't drunk it in more than ten years, right?! Huang Lei asked.
" That's true. Most people have never heard of this tea before. Only the people of the old Imperial Capital know about it. Nowadays, very few young people know about it. However, this tea is really not bad. Uncle, do you have any more tea bags?" Chen Zixin took a sip and said.
" I'll give you some tonight. I didn't bring much," Huang Lei said.
" Thank you, Uncle," Chen Zixin said happily.
" High-foam tea? Why haven't I heard of it before? What kind of tea is this?" his sister asked.
" This is a tea that only the people of the old Imperial Capital drink. Almost no one else knows about it. It's the powder of various high-grade tea leaves. After mixing them according to the ratio, it's equivalent to today's tea bags. It's normal that you haven't heard of it. Many adults don't know about it. This kind of tea is basically sold in old tea shops. Moreover, you can queue up early to buy it. If you're late, it'll be gone," Chen Zixin said.
" Brother, your nose is really sharp. You can tell with one sniff," said his sister.
Chen Zixin smiled." You'll know when you drink too much. Alright, I'll play now."
" Come, come, everyone sit down and listen to the new flute music quietly," Huang Lei said.
Everyone took their seats. Chen Zixin put down his teacup, took out his flute, and tested the tune before officially starting to play. The melodious and light music came out, bringing Huang Lei, He Jiong, and the others in. The production team listened to this song and couldn't help but think about it. The live broadcast room was also silent.
After the song ended, Chen Zixin put down his flute and took a sip of tea. He looked at everyone with a faint smile. After a while, everyone woke up and applauded in unison. The live broadcast room was also filled with heated comments.
Chen Zixin smiled and said,"Does everyone understand what I mean?"
" I can tell. This song can tell that an ignorant young man is curious about the world, has hope for everything in the world, experiences, and grows," Huang Lei said seriously.
" Uncle, as expected of a teacher. You're really knowledgeable. Wait a few days until I finish writing the lyrics. You can take a look at him and see if he's still interesting," Chen Zixin said.
" There's another meaning," Huang Lei asked.
" Yes. Otherwise, I wouldn't have spent three years writing it," Chen Zixin said.
" Zixin, what's the name of this song?" He Jiong asked.
" The song's name is 'The Wind Rises.' I'll use the simplest name to express it. Teacher He, I'll have to trouble you with something," Chen Zixin said.
" What is it? Tell me," He Jiong asked.
"Aren't I going to the signing event on Friday? I want you to tell Teacher Zhang Jie that I can borrow his recording studio to record this song. Is that okay with you?" Chen Zixin asked.
" It's not a big deal. Leave it to me. This is the first time you've taken the initiative to record a song," He Ji said.
" I like this song very much. Otherwise, I wouldn't have spent three years writing it. Deng Chao, I'll bring the male runner song you wanted to sing to the male runner show," Chen Zixin said.
" Alright, thank you," Deng Chao said happily.
" Zixin, this song is really nice. I really want to look at the lyrics now and see what the lyrics can express," Huang Lei said.
" Soon. You'll see it. Don't worry," Chen Zixin said calmly.
Chen Zixin smiled and said," I won't chat with you guys anymore. I have to go back and practice. Bye."
" Bye bye," Huang Lei and the others said.
Chen Zixin nodded and walked out of the mushroom house. He returned to his study and began to sit quietly for an hour.
The people in the mushroom house chatted for a while before they went their separate ways to rest. Reba and Tong Liya returned to Chen Zixin's house. They first went to take a shower and put on their pajamas. They went to the study room and sat on a chair to watch Chen Zixin practice.
An hour later, Chen Zixin finished practicing and asked the two of them," What's the matter?"
" I have nothing to do with you, but Sister Yaya has something to talk to you about. You guys chat. I'll come over later." Reba ran off after saying that.
When Tong Liya saw Reba running away, she instantly felt shy. Chen Zixin asked," Yaya, why are you looking for me?
Tong Liya recalled what Reba had said to her and mustered up her courage to say, Zixin, I like you. I want to be your wife."
Chen Zixin was stunned for a few seconds."Ya Ya, did you say something wrong? How am I worthy of your love?
" You're worthy of my liking in every way. Zixin, I like you. I want to marry you. I'll serve you with Reba and the others," Tong Liya said seriously.
"Are you kidding me? "I'm just a commoner. I'm not worthy of your love," Chen Zixin said.
" I don't care. I've decided on you for the rest of my life. I want to be your woman." Tong Liya kissed him after she finished speaking.
Chen Zixin was speechless." Why are you all so proactive?" Chen Zixin also began to slowly respond. The two of them kissed very intensely. After a long time, their lips parted. Tong Liya said shyly," Hubby, you kissed me. I'm your woman now."
"A woman, right? "Let's go. I'll do it with you today." After Chen Zixin finished speaking, he carried Tong Liya.
After Tong Liya cried out in surprise, Chen Zixin placed her on the bed and said," You're not allowed to run. Sleep here today. I'm going to take a shower. If I see you run, just you wait."
After Chen Zixin finished speaking, he took a change of clothes and went to take a shower. After taking a shower, he saw Reba looking at him with a smile.
Reba smiled and said,"Hubby, how is Sister Yaya?"
"Not bad, let's go!" Chen Zixin said with a smirk. After saying that, Chen Zixin picked up the hot bar, ran into the study room, and placed it on the bed."Wifey, let's sleep here today! " I'll go turn off the lights," Chen Zixin said and ran out. He turned off all the lights and walked to the study room. Once the lights were off, he took off his shoes and lay on the bed.
Chen Zixin said," Heh, I'm really lucky to have two goddesses to sleep with me. They're also my wives."
Hubby, be happy!" Reba said.
" Happiness, happiness. Why isn't Ya Ya's wife saying anything?" Chen Zixin asked.
" What are you talking about? Go to sleep. I was pulled to sleep by you right after I confessed. Behave yourself at night. Otherwise, I'll kick you off the bed," Tong Liya said fiercely.
" Got it. Wifey, I'll hug you to sleep." After saying that, Chen Zixin hugged Reba and Tong Liya to sleep.
Reba and Tong Liya looked at each other, smiled, and hugged Chen Zixin to sleep.
At five o'clock in the morning, Chen Zixin woke up and looked at the two beautiful women on the bed. The corners of his mouth could not help but curl up. He gently got up and put on his clothes and shoes. He quietly walked out of the room to the courtyard, carried his backpack, and began his daily exercise.
At half-past six, Chen Zixin came back from his exercise and finished washing up. Reba and Tong Liya had yet to get up, so they went to the mushroom house's kitchen alone to make breakfast.
At seven o'clock, Huang Lei and the others ran back and entered the courtyard. They smelled the fragrance. Huang Lei walked into the kitchen and asked Chen Zixin, Zixin's making breakfast. What breakfast is he making?"
" Didn't we still have leftover mutton from yesterday? There's a thousand slices of mutton, seaweed, tofu, and so on in the fridge. I just made a pot of spicy soup and some scallion pancakes. They'll be ready soon. Go wash up first. You can eat after you wash up," Chen Zixin said without looking up as he cooked.
" Got it." Huang Lei walked out of the kitchen and said," Everyone, hurry up and wash up. We'll have breakfast later."
" Yay, I haven't had spicy soup in a long time," his sister said happily.
" Hurry up and wash up. We'll eat later," Huang Lei urged.
Everyone nodded and washed up. By the time they finished washing up, it was already 7:30.
Everyone came to the courtyard and sat down to wait for their meal. Chen Zixin scooped out the last scallion pancake and said,"" Peng Peng, come over and bring the breakfast out."
" Coming," Peng Peng said as he ran into the kitchen and brought the scallion pancakes over. Chen Zixin walked out from behind with a pot of spicy soup and placed it on the table."Let's eat! Do it yourself."
After Chen Zixin finished speaking, everyone scooped their own food and started eating.
The younger sister took a sip and said,"Brother, your spicy soup is very authentic. It's as good as my hometown. It's delicious."
" If it's good, drink more. Do you want chili oil?" Chen Zixin said.
" No need. I don't eat spicy food as well as you do. The spiciness is just right," his sister said.
" Teacher He, do you want chili oil?" Chen Zixin asked.
You didn't put mustard oil here, did you?" He Jiong asked fearfully.
" No, who puts mustard oil in chili oil? Don't worry, I'm not that bad," Chen Zixin said.
" Aren't you a scammer? Last time I made a bet with you to eat spicy food, you actually used mustard oil to cook. I'm impressed. I'm just afraid that you'll use mustard oil again," He Jiong complained.
" I really didn't put it this time. Eat it!" Chen Zixin said seriously.
" Seeing how serious you are, I'll believe you this once." He Jiong picked up the spoon and started eating the chili oil.
" How is it? You didn't, right?" Chen Zixin asked.
" No, you did well this time," He Jiong said with a smile.
Chen Zixin smiled and continued to eat. Everyone quickly finished eating and cleaned up. Deng Chao, his wife, and Huang Xiaoming had work to do. They took the wine that Chen Zixin gave them and exchanged numbers before leaving the mushroom house.
Huang Lei and the others sent them off and sat in the pavilion, drinking tea and chatting. As they were chatting, Chen Zixin's phone rang. Chen Zixin took out his phone, glanced at it, and picked it up. Hello, I'm Chen Zixin. May I know who you are?"
Hello, I was sent by your junior brother to deliver your plane tickets. I'm at the village entrance now."
Okay, wait for me for a moment. I'll go get it now. Bye."
"Bye bye."
Chen Zixin hung up the phone and ran to the village entrance. Huang Lei asked," Zixin, why did you run off after answering a call?"
" I'm not sure. I vaguely think someone sent him something. He went to the village entrance to get it," He Jiong said.
" Oh, I see. I'll ask him when he comes back!" Huang Lei said.
While everyone was chatting, the mushroom house's phone rang. Peng Peng ran in and picked it up. Not long after, Peng Peng came out and said happily," Tell everyone a piece of good news."
" What good news?" everyone asked.
" Just now, the production team called and said that they're organizing an outing for us. We can fly kites and have a picnic outside. The director even prepared a tent. The car is parked by the warehouse," Peng Peng said excitedly.
" Woah, that's great. We can go out and play. It only rained a few days ago, and it only cleared up these two days," He Jiong said excitedly.
" Don't get too excited. Did Director Peng Peng say that there would be guests coming?" Huang Lei asked.
"The director said that no guests will be coming today. Didn't Sister Qiao En stay? "The other guests won't be coming," Peng Peng said.
" Then what are we waiting for? Hurry up and clean up the food and drinks. I'll go get some oil, salt, sauce, and vinegar. There's also a knife and cutting board. Hurry up and clean up." Huang Lei ran into the kitchen excitedly and started cleaning up.
The others also began to pack their bags. After a while, everyone was done packing. Huang Lei smiled and asked,"Is everyone ready? Then let's set off!"
" Teacher Huang, Little Wolf hasn't returned yet," Reba said.
" Let's go to the warehouse first. He just happened to pass by the warehouse when he came back. Reba, go and lock his door. We'll go over first," Huang Lei said.
Reba nodded and ran back to lock the door. Huang Lei and the others walked towards the warehouse with big and small bags. Chen Zixin walked back with the plane tickets and happened to bump into them. Chen Zixin asked,"Why are you carrying so many bags? Move."
" Brother, we're not moving. The production team is organizing an outing for us," the younger sister said happily.
" For the production team to be so kind, there must be a conspiracy," Chen Zixin said.
" Hey, who cares about his schemes? Let's go play first," Huang Lei said.
"Alright then! "I'll go back and get something first. I'll meet up with you guys," Chen Zixin said.
"Go! "We're at the warehouse," Huang Lei said.
Chen Zixin nodded and quickened his pace to walk home. On the way, he happened to bump into Reba. Reba said happily, Little Wolf, let's go on an outing."
Chen Zixin smiled and pulled Reba back home. Reba asked, Little Wolf, let's go meet up with Teacher Huang. Why are we going home? I'll lock the door for you."
Chen Zixin smiled and didn't say anything. He pulled Reba home and opened the door. Once the door was closed, Chen Zixin kissed him. Reba also began to respond. After kissing for a long time, the two of them separated. Reba pouted and said, Why? Kiss me."
" Who asked you to ignite my fire so early in the morning? I have to kiss you," Chen Zixin said.
" Yo, you're firing. Do you want me to vent your anger for you?" Reba teased.
Chen Zixin was speechless." Hooligan, wait for me here." After saying that, Chen Zixin took the bamboo basket to the field to pick a few watermelons. He also took two bottles of wine and a flute from the study room. He carried the bamboo basket on his back and locked the door. Then, he and Reba walked to the warehouse to meet up.
When the two of them arrived at the warehouse, Huang Lei and the others were already waiting there. When Huang Lei saw them, she quickly called for them to get into the car. Chen Zixin put the things away and got into the car. He Jiong drove away.
