Traveling to ancient times to sweep the catering industry
Chapter 8 Are you scared?
After Qi Shuo finished his military affairs, he was urged by his subordinates to return home, saying that he wanted to visit his new wife and cultivate their relationship.
Although Qi Shuo did not marry voluntarily, now that she has come to his home, he cannot treat her badly. Besides, she was almost kidnapped and injured by bandits before. I am unfamiliar with his territory, so I should comfort her.
As soon as he returned to the mansion, the first people to greet him were two little kids. They hugged his legs and called him "Dad" all the time.
The two little guys were so cute that Qi Shuo couldn't help but laugh. He raised his hand and touched their heads.
"Ah Xing has grown taller again!"
Qi Xing jumped for joy, unlike his usual aloof look.
"Dad, what about me?"
"Aqi has grown taller too."
Qi Shuo picked up his daughter with a smile, and started to tease her, asking: "What have you been eating these days? Not only have you grown taller, but you've also gained a lot of weight!"
Qi Qi said honestly: "I went to eat at the new lady's place these days..."
"Aqi! Stop talking nonsense!"
Qi Xing didn't let Qi Qi speak. Qi Qi listened to his brother very much, so naturally he didn't say anything.
They even went to the new lady's house to eat barbecue the day before!
The new wife cooks delicious food, is a nice person, and is pretty.
Aqi likes the new wife very much, but her brother says that the new wife is pretending to be kind and wants to snatch away his father by trying to please them.
Ah Qi was also a little scared, afraid that her father would really be taken away and would no longer love them. But every time she smelled the delicious food made by the new wife, these worries were thrown out of her mind.
When Qi Shuo heard his daughter suddenly mention the new wife, he couldn't help but feel curious. It seemed that these two little guys had become familiar with the Cheng girl.
"Let's go see Miss Cheng!"
Ah Qi was puzzled: "Who is Miss Cheng?"
Qi Xing said, "Stupid, it's the new wife! Her last name is Cheng!"
Aqi laughed: "Okay, okay!"
Qi Shuo patted his son's head and said, "How rude!"
Qi Xing covered his head and groaned twice.
Qi Shuo also received letters from Wu Niang these days, which talked about some things about Miss Cheng and said that she was urging him to come back and get married as soon as possible. It seemed that she was a little anxious about the marriage, and it was inappropriate for him to keep ignoring the girl.
The three of them went all the way to Cheng Wenwen's yard.
When a maid in the mansion saw the general coming back, she quickly turned around and went to Wu Li's yard to inform her of the matter.
……
At this time, Cheng Wenwen was directing He and Pei'er to plant vegetables, and she didn't notice anyone coming to the gate of the yard.
He was still the sharp-eyed one, and suddenly asked, "General? You're back?"
"General? General!!"
Cheng Wenwen suddenly sat up in shock, feeling extremely panicked.
What I was thinking was: The man who was rumored to be old, ugly and prone to domestic violence is back?
Are you back? ! ! !
Didn’t you say you wouldn’t come back for half a year?
It's only been a few days? You're back already?
She turned her head and looked towards the door in disbelief.
There really was a man standing there.
The man stood tall and straight, holding Qi Qi in his arms.
Cheng Wenwen looked at the general's face, and the first thing she saw was the messy beard. He seemed to have not shaved for a long time, and his beard was about half a finger long, making him look a little sloppy.
But if you look more closely, you can see that the man has clear and bright eyes and a strong face. If he shaves off the messy beard, he should be good-looking. But no matter how good-looking he is, with half of his face blocked by the beard, he doesn't look very handsome. He can only be said to be so-so.
This man might be a general who often goes to the battlefield, so he has a cold aura that is intimidating without being angry. People can't help but feel afraid at first glance and dare not look at him a second time.
Cheng Wenwen remembered the rumors about his domestic violence and couldn't help but lower her eyes and ruffle her hair, hoping that the general would not fall for her.
Before Qi Shuo entered the door, he heard a woman's clear voice directing something.
As soon as I entered the room, I saw a pretty girl sitting on a chair, basking in the sun lazily. She looked very relaxed. She did not have the dignified and noble look of the aristocratic women I had seen, but she seemed quite approachable.
But when the girl heard me coming, she suddenly became alert and stood up. After seeing me, her face became uneasy and fearful again. I wonder if she was scared by me?
Qi Shuo couldn't help but think: I disturbed her peace and quiet, I didn't expect her to be so timid.
"What is Miss Cheng doing?"
He spoke in what he thought was a gentle voice, trying to soothe the girl's fear.
Unexpectedly, the girl was still afraid. She lowered her eyes and said, "I...I...kind of...kind of..."
The girl didn't say a word for a long time. Qi Shuo couldn't help but wonder, is it possible that Cheng has a stutter?
That's not right! He just heard her voice, it was normal.
Could it be that he was scared by himself?
Actually it was Cheng Wenwen who pretended.
If I want the general to look down on me, I can only act ugly and act like a stuttering woman who is not presentable. He should be uninterested in me, right?
Cheng Wenwen was secretly delighted and couldn't help but praise herself for being smart.
"Miss! What are you doing... Hey..."
Seeing her so careless, He was somewhat helpless and could only look after herself and say to Qi Shuo: "Don't blame me, General. The young lady is not like this normally. I think she is so happy to see you that she is too nervous!"
Cheng Wenwen looked towards He suddenly.
Aunt He! If you don't know how to interpret it, you don't have to interpret it.
Did she look like she was happy to see him?
When Qi Shuo heard what He said, he raised his eyebrows and looked at Cheng Wenwen. Seeing that this girl from the Cheng family did seem a little spoiled, he didn't say much.
“What are you planting?”
"The young lady brought some seeds, saying it was a kind of fruit that would be delicious when grown."
After He finished her reply, she quickly pushed Cheng Wenwen's shoulder, signaling her to take the initiative.
But Cheng Wenwen kept her head down, not looking at the general, and tried her best to appear more modest.
Qi Shuo looked at the girl who lowered her head, and thought that maybe he really scared her, so he said tactfully: "Then you guys keep planting, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
"General, will you...will you come to dinner in the evening?" Seeing Cheng Wenwen was not taking the initiative, He became anxious and had to take action herself.
After hearing He's invitation, Cheng Wenwen raised her hand and pulled He, signaling her not to meddle in other people's business.
Who wants him to come to dinner?
Qi Shuo naturally saw the girl's rejection of him, so he refused: "I have something else to do, so I won't come. If you need any help, you can tell the servants, or tell Wu Niang to do it."
He nodded awkwardly: "Yes, General, take care."
Watching the general leave with the two children, He angrily pulled Cheng Wenwen and said, "Miss, why did you fail at the critical moment? The general finally came back, but you didn't seize the opportunity to get close to him. Instead, you are like this...ah..."
He didn't know whether Cheng Wenwen was pretending or was really scared, but she was very disappointed with her.
Cheng Wenwen looked up and saw that the man had left. She breathed a sigh of relief and continued to lean back in her chair, ignoring what He said.
……
Qi Xing followed Qi Shuo away, looked suspiciously at the girl in the yard, and muttered: "Strange! She wasn't like this when I saw her a few days ago?"
"What are you talking about?" Qi Shuo asked after hearing his mumbling.
Qi Xing said directly: "The new wife doesn't stutter on weekdays, and she's not that timid!"
After hearing this, Qi Shuo understood and touched his face, becoming even more certain that the Cheng girl was frightened by her appearance.
