Civilization Guardian Front

Leaning back, the young man who just got up fell back on the quilt.

"Help me, I was hungover from you yesterday, and I haven't recovered yet."

"You, it's really..." Changxiu smiled wryly and shook her head, of course she knew that the man in front of her was talking nonsense.

Last night, the two of them only drank three buckets of wine at Huajian Winery, and when they left, Chios had clear eyes and was not drunk.

Now say I'm hungover...

Even though she knew what Chios was thinking, the girl still took the initiative to jump into the opponent's obvious trap.

Xiaobu came to Chios's side, and after putting aside the lacquer plate containing a rich breakfast in his hand, Changxiu stretched one hand to the back of the young man's neck, and pressed the other hand on the young man's chest and asked:

"Master Chios, what's wrong with you?"

"Yeah..." Chios suddenly opened his eyes.

"I haven't had my hangover soup yet."

After finishing speaking, the young man stood up and kissed Changxiu's cherry lips that were caught off guard.

"Ummm...cheep..."

Half a quarter of an hour later, the girl who had difficulty breathing was finally free.

"Huh...huh...Master Chios is really too much..." Changxiu opened the folding fan to cover the blush on his face that couldn't go away for a while, and he couldn't tell whether he was complaining or being coquettish:

"I stuck my tongue in before I washed it, 89 points."

"This is really a subtle score..."

Having said that, Chios turned his attention to the breakfast on the lacquered wooden plate.

The rice served in the crimson gold-patterned lacquer bowl is as clear as grains of white jade, and the steam is slowly rising from the top; the five exquisite small dishes are pickled radish, wasabi octopus, tamagoyaki, and saury Sashimi, grilled eggplant; the last black lacquer bowl, the contents are covered by the bowl lid, but the miso fragrance wafting faintly explains everything.

"I let you bother to prepare such a sumptuous meal for me."

The young man took Changxiu's soft hand and kissed her fingertips slowly, expressing his gratitude to the girl for her dedication.

"It's so itchy, Mr. Chios..." Even though he said that, Changxiu didn't withdraw his hand, and looked at Chios' tender behavior with soft eyes.

The sunlight penetrated the paper window and shone obliquely into the room, making the young man's already handsome face more vividly outlined. Where the light could not reach, the deep shadows produced invisible magnified the sense of mystery on his body.

"Master Momori is a guest at the little girl's house, how dare he neglect you, 95 points..." The fingers dodged playfully, and sometimes they took the initiative to get up to let the young man peck.

"Besides, Mr. Chios, who is about to leave for three months, finally came to the little girl's house for a day, and I don't know which beauty will be with him tonight. The little girl can only seize the opportunity in front of her and serve Curios as much as possible." Mr. Stan, isn't he?"

Changxiu's tone was indifferent, as if he didn't care at all.

Chios saw it, and felt guilty in his heart.

but...

Saying things like sorry now is hypocritical and meaningless.

Grabbing Changxiu's hand and gently pulling towards her, the girl's slender body threw herself into Chios' arms without any resistance, and was hugged tightly by the young man.

Hugging Changxiu with such strength as to crush the opponent, Chios whispered in Changxiu's ear:

"Thank you, Manchiyo."

"Breakfast...it's getting cold, Mr. Chios..." Even though it was difficult to breathe, there was always a happy smile on the girl's beautiful and gentle face.

Chapter 140 Three? A Warm Home

As the general manager, Niwa Chohide has to deal with a lot of government affairs every day. Although the girl really wants to continue to spend the whole day hugging Chios like this, she can only think about it.

After the two had breakfast together, Changxiu suppressed the reluctance in his heart, and left Niwa's house first, and went to Qingzhou City to start today's work.

After a brief wash, Chios changed into a crimson kimono with a pattern, and then walked out of Niwa Nagahide's mansion.

Walking alone on the streets of Qingzhou Castle Town, I took out my pocket watch and glanced at it. The time was just past seven in the morning.

"It's been a busy day..." Looking at the sky, Chios let out a sigh of relief. He came to a shop full of clay pots at the door, lifted the curtain and walked in.

"Welcome, customer... ah!" The shop owner, who was immersed in his abacus, raised his head after hearing the slight movement at the door, and the polite smile he had put on when he saw the visitor suddenly turned into panic.

"Lord Chios, why bother you to come to the shop in person?"

"It happened to be free, so I wanted to say that I would pick up the goods in person..." Wen Wen smiled and waved his hand, signaling that the other party should not be nervous.

"Boss Zhu Qilang, the Nanman goods I ordered more than a month ago, have they been delivered?"

"Yes, yes, Master Chios has specifically instructed you, how dare the grassroots neglect..." The shop owner Shichiro nodded quickly, wiped the sweat that appeared on his forehead with his sleeves, and then turned his head. shouted into the house:

"Master Chios is here, hurry up and move out the Nanban goods delivered yesterday!"

""yes! ""

There were energetic replies from several handdai (shop handymen) in the store, followed by the sound of busy moving goods.

Then, Sushichiro turned his head quickly, and said to the young man in front of him with a flattering smile on his face:

"Actually, Mr. Chios doesn't have to wait here for a long time. I will personally urge the hand to deliver the goods to your house."

"It's okay, it's not a big deal to wait a while." Chios patted the shoulder of the shop owner friendly.

"Don't put too much pressure on me, have the rumors in the neighborhood called me so vicious?"

"Absolutely not, it's just that when a big man like you comes to the shop, the grassroots are of course terrified..."

Seeing Chios's gentle and sincere expression, Sushichiro finally calmed down, patted his heart with an exaggerated expression, and responded jokingly:

"Master Chios, please think about us people, this is really bad for the heart, so I almost stopped."

"Haha..." Looking at the shop owner's exaggerated facial expression, Chios couldn't help but chuckle.

"Don't worry, if I have the opportunity to scare you a few more times, the heart will be stronger."

"Please spare the grass people!"

While chatting with Sushichiro, the shop assistants moved quickly, and quickly moved out the goods ordered by Chios, stacked them neatly on the wooden truck, and tied them tightly with straw ropes to prevent them from slipping.

"Lord Chios, all the Nanban goods you ordered are ready." Assistant Shichiro gestured to the truck and asked Chios to inspect it.

There is a faint familiar smell in clay pots of different sizes...

Flour, honey, butter, jam...

Sniffing the small amount of breath remaining in the air, Chios's worries about the quality of the goods disappeared without a trace, and he nodded secretly.

"Very well, let's go then."

Seeing the young man's expression of satisfaction, Sushichiro was silently relieved.

These goods bought from Portugal and Spain through Japanese merchants, because of the change of hands and scarcity, it took Chios a full three hundred pens to purchase them all.The shop owner is so nervous because he knows that these goods are of high value, and if they are accidentally knocked over and damaged, he will not be able to explain them at all.

Although he didn't know what these southern barbarians bought by Chios were for.But judging from the fact that the aroma alone can arouse the appetite, it is still worth eating.

After all, Mr. Chios was born in the Southern Barbarian Kingdom, so he always feels homesick...

The heroes of the Owari country try their best to eat a meal of hometown cuisine. As a Owari person, how can we not work hard to realize this little wish for Mr. Chios.

With such thoughts in mind, Sushichiro felt a sense of mission on his shoulders, and waved his hand with a serious face:

"Be careful with the goods, and be sure to deliver the goods safely to Mr. Chios's home!"

""yes! ""

The five hands were infected by the boss's earnestness, as if they were daimyo's guards, each of them guarded the Nanman goods with firm expressions, and set off pushing the wooden cart.

Seeing this, Chios helplessly supported his forehead, and muttered to himself in a low voice:

"Hold back, don't laugh..."

...

Kiyosu Castle Sannomaru, Goga Courtyard, Chios House...

The road from Xiamachi Commercial Street to Qingzhou City is very safe, and with Chios at the side, there is no trouble in the delivery of the goods.

The wooden wheel rolled on the road and made a rattling sound, and the truck vibrated, causing the goods on it to tremble slightly, but the straw ropes used to fix it were tied extremely firmly, firmly protecting the goods.

Through the main entrance, a group of people entered the courtyard inside the wall.

Since Chios became the governor of Mormori City, this house has rarely been inhabited, but it does not mean that this house will become desolate.

On the contrary, due to the special relationship between the owner and Owari Daimyo, Oda Nobuna ordered people to renovate the house many times.

The original half-person-high fence outside the house was doubled in height, and the simple earthen wall was transformed into a beautiful screen wall; the inner courtyard was like Xinnai Tea House, with lawns, white sand, and strange-shaped stones added to the garden landscaping; the wood chips that previously lacked aesthetic feeling The roof is now made of black-dyed bamboo sheets in fish scales. Bronze wind chimes hang down from the eaves, swaying gently with the wind; the paper sliding doors are pushed open, and the sunlight shines into the house obliquely, presenting a brand new interior furniture. .

More than two months ago, it was just a house of a down-and-out samurai residence, and now it has become a warm and exquisite home...

Looking at his own house in front of him, Chios felt a warm current in his heart, and a smile from the heart naturally appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Her Royal Highness, the princess in the castle tower, is really touching his heartstrings all the time...

"Just move the goods to the front of the house..."

Chios turned his face sideways to give instructions to Sushichiro and the others, his eyes swept across the inner courtyard, and he quickly found the person he was looking for.

A traditional European oven is placed on the open space in the courtyard, which is particularly conspicuous in the pure Japanese architecture. The oven is full of firewood and can be burned at any time.

The petite girl who didn't wear a tiger-head hat for going out, and didn't have the iconic vermilion short gun in her hand, just wearing a light bathrobe, was standing by the oven curiously, observing with amber innocent eyes.

"Inuchiyo!"

Hearing the young man's greeting, the girl suddenly turned her head.

"... Chios." Inuchiyo's usually expressionless face, when he saw the tall figure at the gate of the house, was instantly stained with a layer of happy light.

"...CAKE, I really want to eat it!"

Chapter 140 Four? Open your mouth, ah——

It was not an easy task to make cakes in Japan during the Warring States period, let alone Chios, who used the local cookers with painstaking efforts.

In order to fulfill the promise he made with Inuchiyo, Chios ordered people to build a European-style oven in his own yard according to the structure he was familiar with. Write out a list of goods in different languages, and let Sushichiro order various goods from European merchants.

Now, finally all the preparations are in place...

Until recently, I didn't know that Chios had worked so hard for this, and even spent a huge amount of money to purchase cake materials. Inuchiyo, tossed and turned for several days, and spent the long night with a reddish face.

I don't know what she associates with Chios' contribution...

Zhu Qilang and others put the goods neatly in front of the house, and then left quickly.

"...Chios, what is this white powder?"

"Flour is the most important raw material for making cakes."

"...where's this sweet-smelling golden syrup?"

"That's honey..."

Chios and Inuchiyo were busy placing clay pots filled with food ingredients in front of the ground stove. The girl who was completely unfamiliar with each item would curiously pull the corner of the young man's clothes and ask about it.

While answering the questions, he quickly raised the fire to preheat the stove in the house and the European-style oven in the courtyard.

Then, Chios took a custom-made large bowl, cracked two eggs, and used a wooden spoon to thoroughly break up the egg liquid evenly.

He is very good at western desserts. He skillfully adds sugar and vanilla seeds, and then stirs rapidly until the contents of the bowl form a creamy consistency, then pours flour, icing sugar, and almond powder through a sieve, and then Mix well.

Inuchiyo, who had never seen this kind of cooking method before, knelt on the tatami, his eyes unblinking, staring at Chios's movements with all his attention.

"...It turns out Chios really knows how to cook..."

"Your emotion is very impolite..." Chios retaliated by rubbing Inuchiyo's lop-eared dog hair, and stretched his fingers into the hair to gently scratch the top of the girl's head.

"Don't move, this is punishment."

"...uh..."

The tingling sensation spread from the head to every corner of the body, and the petite body trembled slightly, and Inuchiyo couldn't help but hum softly.

The immature and immature body, the skin is more sensitive, and it can't withstand Chios's tricks at all, so he can only close his eyes and hold back.

As for the option of rejecting something, it was not in Inuchiyo's mind from the beginning.

This "torture" didn't last long, just when the girl almost couldn't control her whole body trembling...

The magic hand on the head suddenly withdrew.

"I'll forgive you this time..." Saying this, Chios stretched his arms around Inuchiyo's slender shoulders, and kissed her on the head.
