Chapter 1135: New Year's Eve Dinner
Chen Xiao walked in, and a huge round table was already set up in the hall. This round table is usually in the dining room, and it is only moved from the dining room to the living room every year during the New Year's Eve dinner.Eating New Year's Eve dinner in the living room is lively, and everyone can sit down.There are seven or eight guards in the entire Chen Mansion, including the old man and Chen Xiao, there are a total of ten guards.
"Xiao'er, you're back?" The old man was reading on the sofa beside him, and when he saw Chen Xiao coming in, he hurriedly put down the book in his hand, and then said with a smile, "Okay, I have to go get them to serve the food, and the Chinese New Year is coming soon." gone."
"I'll go." Chen Xiao hurriedly got up and walked towards the kitchen.
Under Chen Xiao's urging, the kitchen finally started serving food.The first dish is Roasted Suckling Pig for Money, and the second dish is Xianghe Sanyuanbao... One after another very creative dishes were delivered from the kitchen.Today, except for Chen Xiao and the old man, all the guards were busy. They were all so busy that they wished they could have hands and feet.Twenty dishes almost squeezed the entire table into a mess.Large and small plates are clustered on this table, and the colors are very rich. Almost all kinds of colors and delicious dishes are served.
Because the old man used to be a Sichuan army from the land of Bashu, so the taste is heavy.Although he has lived in the capital for most of his life, the old man's taste has never been changed.Therefore, most of the dishes here are spicy and numb.However, Chen Xiao also likes this taste.
When the last dish was served, the guards who had been busy in the kitchen all day took off their aprons, wiped the sweat from their foreheads and walked out of the kitchen, standing neatly in the hall, listening to the The old man's lecture.The old man glanced at everyone and said: "Another year has passed, I am one year older, and you are all one year older. Today's New Year's Eve dinner, thank you for being with me again for the New Year's Eve. I didn't say much Already, today you eat with your belly open, drink with your belly open, good wine and good food are all you need.”
"I wish the old commander a blessing like the East China Sea, and a longer life than Nanshan." Everyone shouted.
"Okay, listen to my order and find a place to sit down." The old man's voice was sonorous and powerful, and everyone sat down in their seats immediately. Chen Xiao helped the old man to sit down on the main seat.The old man said to the guard Xiao Liu: "Xiao Liu, go to the wine cellar and bring up those special Moutais. Today, you can drink all the special Moutais. You can drink as much as you can."
Everyone was overjoyed at once, the old commander had been very strict with his Moutai on weekdays, but he didn't expect to let everyone open their stomachs to drink this time, which is very rare.There was excitement in everyone's eyes, and they all stared at Xiao Liu's back like greedy cats. Xiao Liu ran into the wine cellar, and then brought up a box of special Moutai, with six bottles in each box. , One bottle is one catty, six bottles are six catties.Chen Ling estimated that six catties of wine might not be enough for these ten people to drink, at least another case would have to be ordered.
Calculated according to the market price, a bottle of Moutai, which is special for the military region, can sell for about 30 to 60 yuan.One box costs [-] million yuan, and two boxes costs [-] million yuan.Of course, the old man never considered the price when drinking. After all, this wine was specially supplied by the Moutai Group to the military region to reward the leaders of the military region.As for the price issue, I don't think about it at all.Moreover, these Moutai wines are basically brewed from pure grains, not alcohol blended. Generally, alcohol blended wines do not benefit people at all, and will only damage people's health.
Six bottles of special Moutai were placed on the table, Xiao Liu opened two bottles first, and filled them up one after another for the old man and others.He hurriedly put away the box, and then sat upright on the chair.The old man raised his glass first and said, "Happy New Year to everyone."
"I wish the old commander a happy new year and a long and healthy life." Everyone stood up one after another.Afterwards, everyone raised their heads and took a sip of wine and drank it down.After drinking a glass of wine, the old man's face immediately turned red, and the wrinkles on his face were piled up with a smile.The old man is very happy today, not only because today is the New Year, but also because people from the Yang family will come to talk about marriage in a few days.Thinking that his grandson was about to get married, the old man was full of joy, and he seemed to be much happier.
This time, everyone at the New Year's Eve dinner was as crazy as in previous years. Two boxes of Moutai were not enough, and it was only after they moved out the third box that they completely fell down.Guard Xiao Liu has always kept himself from drinking too much, because he doesn't want what happened a few years ago to happen again.After the old man was drunk, Xiao Liu hurriedly helped the old man back to the room to rest. As for the other guards, he didn't bother to care about them, and let them lie on the ground and sleep.
Even though everyone was drunk, Xiao Liu remained sober. After cleaning up the scene, he immediately put on his steel gun and returned to the gate to stand guard.The most important thing for a soldier is his post, and leaving his post without authorization is a capital offense.Although it is an era of peace, the vigilance must not be lowered.Chen Xiao walked over and said, "Xiao Liu, go and rest, let me stand guard today."
"Master, how can we do that?" Xiao Liu hurriedly shook his head and said, "Standing guard is the job of our guards."
"No, this is an order, and it is also a request." Chen Xiao looked at Xiao Liu with firm confidence, and said, "This is an order from a major general to you, and it can be regarded as a request. I just hope that I can stand up for the old man again." Ban Gang."
When Xiao Liu heard this, he couldn't help sighing, and said, "Okay, since the young master said so, then I'll be lazy for a while."
After finishing speaking, Xiao Liu saluted Chen Xiao and changed the guard according to the specifications. Chen Xiao also returned the salute, walked up, and took the steel gun in Xiao Liu's hand.There are bullets in this steel gun. Although the bullets are not loaded, they are all real bullets.
It takes two hours for one shift to stop.During these two hours, the sky gradually dimmed, and the lights at the intersection gradually lit up.Several other families in this alley are also gradually entering the New Year's Eve dinner time. After the New Year's Eve dinner, everyone is busy watching TV at home.Although some bigwigs will be invited to watch the Spring Festival Gala live on CCTV, most of the bigwigs still like to watch the Spring Festival Gala at home with their relatives.
Two hours later, Xiao Liu hurried out from the inside, then walked up to Chen Xiao, and said, "Master, it's time for the changing of the guard."
"En." Chen Ling nodded, then stepped down from the post and handed the steel gun in his hand to Xiao Liu.Once the post is considered complete.The weather outside is quite cold, the winter in the capital is very cold, especially after nightfall, the temperature suddenly drops to several degrees below zero.Despite the severe cold, the guards still have to stick to their posts.After Xiao Liu's two-hour post, the other guards gradually began to sober up.
Chen Xiao ran back to her room to sleep. Tomorrow is the first day of the Lunar New Year, and there are quite a lot of things to be busy tomorrow, so it is time to go to sleep now.Back in the room, Chen Xiao fell asleep, but as soon as Chen Xiao fell asleep, his whole consciousness was pulled into the Two-dimensional world by the fire unicorn, and the fire unicorn looked at Chen Xiao with a smile, and said, "You are so lucky, boy! .”
"What's wrong?" Chen Xiao was taken aback.
"The Suzaku eggs are probably about to hatch." The Fire Qilin said with a chuckle, "I never thought that the old thing from the Suzaku tribe would give you two of the most powerful Suzaku eggs."
"Really?" Chen Ling was startled, before guessing that the old thing had given him two Suzaku eggs that could not be hatched, but now it seems that these two Suzaku eggs are the best.However, Huo Qilin grinned and said: "I guess that old man from the Suzaku clan didn't think that these two Suzaku eggs would be two blue-headed Suzaku once in a hundred years."
"What is the blue-headed red bird?" Chen Ling looked at the fire unicorn suspiciously.
"The so-called blue-headed Suzaku is actually an evolution of the Suzaku." Fire Qilin said with a chuckle: "In the Suzaku clan, generally the hatched Suzaku have red heads, and occasionally there will be blue-headed Suzaku. It seems that you humans have only one child under normal circumstances, but occasionally there will be two, or three. It’s just a matter of probability. This green-headed rosefinch is a kind of ancient beast, but because it is born with supernatural powers , so he is called the King of Suzaku. I guess the old man will vomit blood with anger when he finds out about this."
"Ah..." Chen Xiao was taken aback for a moment, then overjoyed, and said, "That's great, I didn't expect it to be a blessing in disguise. Haha..."
"Don't laugh too, the green-headed rosebird needs a lot of fairy grass and fairy medicine to feed after it hatches, and the herbs in your boy's place will probably suffer." Fire Qilin snorted softly.Who knows, Chen Ling smiled indifferently and said: "It's okay, eat as soon as you eat, you can go to Wuhuan to find the fairy grass and fairy medicine, but the King of Suzaku is not something you can get if you want it! "
"Well, you are somewhat enlightened, kid." Huo Qilin nodded.
Chen Xiao personally went to the cave of the Pterosaur King to check the two Suzaku eggs. Some movement could indeed be felt inside the Suzaku eggs, and there were some cracks outside the shells. It might not be long before they could hatch.Chen Ling had to find a way to quickly deliver these two Suzaku eggs to Tang Yan and Mingxue.Once Suzaku breaks out of its shell, the first person it sees will be its future owner.However, there are at least ten days before Little Suzaku emerges from its shell.Therefore, Chen Xiao still has plenty of time.
After knowing the approximate time, Chen Xiao also breathed a sigh of relief, as long as he arrives at the last moment.Chen Xiao smiled, then continued to sleep.
In the early morning of the next day, Chen Ling was awakened by the sound of electronic firecrackers outside.In this small alley, unwritten rules have long been formed, and fireworks and firecrackers are completely prohibited.Regardless of any holiday, electronic firecrackers must be used.Electronic firecrackers are not only effective, but also economical, and most importantly, they can protect the environment.Chen Xiao hurriedly got up, and a guard had already delivered a set of brand new and clean military uniforms.
"Xiao'er, you're back?" The old man was reading on the sofa beside him, and when he saw Chen Xiao coming in, he hurriedly put down the book in his hand, and then said with a smile, "Okay, I have to go get them to serve the food, and the Chinese New Year is coming soon." gone."
"I'll go." Chen Xiao hurriedly got up and walked towards the kitchen.
