Chapter 25 One Night at the Temple of Heaven
Chapter 25: One night in the Temple of Heaven
If you want to go deeper, Chen Zikun is an apprentice of Jingwu Sect and Bao Zhilin. He is much higher than the unknown Swallow Sect. However, in this situation, he has to cooperate. Chen Zikun said solemnly: "It turns out that Xiaoqing's martial arts skills are famous in the family. This past is really regrettable. Uncle, you are a person with temperament."
Master Xia smiled indifferently, with deep wrinkles on his forehead, and he could vaguely see his elegance back then.
"The Swallow Sect is not a famous sect... Forget it, let's not mention this, my martial arts are quite mixed. I learned the skills of the Swallow Sect from Cangzhou, and later I learned some of the skills of the Swallow Sect from Xiaoqing's mother over the years. Over the years, I have summarized a set of light skills and body techniques. After you get married to Xiaoqing, I will officially teach you."
Chen Zikun understood Master Xia’s intention and immediately said, “Uncle, don’t worry, I will definitely be good to Xiaoqing. However, I am in a military position and will have to go abroad to study military affairs in a while. It will take about three years to come back.”
Master Xia pondered for a while and said, "It's okay, just let Xiaoqing go abroad with you."
Chen Zikun smiled bitterly and said, "This is probably not easy. Military academy is not an ordinary school and cannot be brought to the family."
"That's fine. As long as you two fall in love, let alone three or five years, it's okay if you wait ten or eight years. But, young man, you can't be Chen Shimei."
"I dare not, I dare not." Chen Zikun called out secretly. He was just here to see his old acquaintance, but why did he become a son-in-law?
While talking, Xia Xiaoqing came in with two plates of dishes, stir-fried mutton with scallions, stir-fried pork intestine, put it on the table, then put it in apron, and took a cucumber in the kitchen, fried the plate of peanuts and brought it up. The two of them raised their wine glasses and said, "Let's go."
After three rounds of drinking, Master Xia said, "We are from our small courtyard, so we don't care about those false condoms. Today, we will settle your marriage with this drink. My father is ineffective. I'm afraid he won't live long. Zikun and Xiaoqing will leave it to you."
As he said that, Master Xia took his daughter's hand and solemnly handed it to Chen Zikun's hand.
"Dad!" Xia Xiaoqing's tears fell like rain.
Chen Zikun was also moved, and pinched Xia Xiaoqing's hand and said, "Uncle, I will definitely take good care of Xiaoqing."
"Okay, let's go." Master Xia smiled with relief and picked up the wine glass again.
This wine was very enjoyable. Master Xia was drunk. Xia Xiaoqing served him and lie down and sent Chen Zikun out. The two walked beside Longxugou. Chen Zikun suddenly laughed and said, "Suddenly there was a wife. The world is changing so fast."
Xia Xiaoqing snorted coldly: "Who said she would marry you? Remember, this is just to make my father happy. If you really want to marry me, you have to make me happy."
Chen Zikun smiled and said nothing. Suddenly, a group of people hurriedly pulled a cart. A woman with a big belly was lying on the car. Her face was sweaty and she kept moaning, as if she was about to give birth. But strangely, she was wearing a middle school student outfit.
Behind the cart, a middle-aged man came over with a gloomy face, gritting his teeth and muttering words such as indifference and misfortune at home. Chen Zikun was stunned. Isn’t this man the man who beat Hu Banxian in the morning?
Hu Banxian is well-deserved!
Seeing Chen Zikun dazed, Xia Xiaoqing reached out to shake in front of him: "Silly, what are you thinking?"
"Nothing." Chen Zikun came to his senses, took out forty dollars from his pocket and a few silver slots and photographed Xia Xiaoqing in his hand: "Hold it, the uncle's illness cannot be delayed."
Xia Xiaoqing did not refuse and said stuttered: "When will you come again?"
"Come when you have time, don't send it, just come here." Chen Zikun said.
"Yes." Xia Xiaoqing nodded.
Chen Zikun turned around and left, suddenly heard a shout behind him: "Oh!"
He suddenly turned around and saw Xia Xiaoqing coming over with a red face, pecking her on her face, then turned her head and ran away, as if she was flying.
Chen Zikun touched his face and laughed.
The supper was taken to the car factory for dinner. Baoqing invited everyone to drink, eight bowls of large noodles, and the second pot head was enough. The coachmen accompanied him to drink it and went back to sleep one after another. In the end, only Chen Zikun and Xue Baoqing were left.
"Big brother, I thank you, I'm done!" Baoqing picked up the wine bowl and drank it all, tears in his eyes, "The court sentenced Ma Laowu to death, was executed in autumn, and the rickshaw that was occupied by the Ma family was sent back. Xing'er and I were also engaged. Dad, Dad, you should be in peace in your eyes."
Chen Zikun didn't say anything. He knew that Baoqing had been suppressing for too long and needed to vent. This strong young man like a calf actually had a heart like a sheep.
"Da Kunzi, the car factory is yours. We will help you guard this family business. When will you come back..." Baoqing said, and his head tilted and he snored.
It was a little cold in the summer night. Chen Zikun took off his military uniform and covered him with his coat and started to clean up the dishes, chopsticks, cups and plates. Xing'er walked over and said, "Let me go."
Chen Zikun watched Xing'er move quickly and packed the leftovers. A picture appeared in his mind. Baoqing replaced him with himself, while Xing'er became his wife who had not passed the door. The two lived in a courtyard house in Beijing, driving a car factory, and there were old mothers, fat maids, loofah racks, goldfish tanks, and a lion dog at home.
Perhaps, for most people, this is happiness.
Thinking of this, Chen Zikun shook his head hard, and the figure lying on the table turned back to Baoqing.
"This is not the life you want." Chen Zikun said to himself.
He slept in his own room at night. Chen Zikun was still the boss of the Ziguang Car Factory. The west room of the main house was his bedroom. He kept it for him and no one was allowed to occupy it. Chen Zikun lay on the bed, took out a booklet from his close-fitting jacket, and read it in the candlelight. Five words were printed on the cover of the booklet: ** Declaration.
He came from Wu Peifu's study. One of the editors is Li Dazhao from Peking University. The content is interesting. Chen Zikun always likes to take it out and take a look before going to bed. It is more effective than counting goats.
The next day, everyone went to the suburbs to burn paper for Xue Pingshun's grave, put seven plates and eight bowls in front of the grave, and everyone cried for a while, and then went to the Yanhong grave to worship.
Chen Zikun took some money from the car factory and bought a gift to visit his future father-in-law in Longxugou. Although the marriage was half true, the etiquette that should be given when doing a show is not missing.
Master Xia was very happy and solemnly introduced to the neighbors that Chen Zikun was his son-in-law. Chen Zikun also took out the cigarette in the front door and scattered it around. The uncle and aunt shouted, his mouth was much sweeter than Xia Xiaoqing.
When he returned to the house, Master Xia looked at the things in the basket and was shocked: "Child, why do you buy such expensive things?"
In the basket is a box of Changbaishan ginseng, two deer antlers, and a bottle of tiger bone wine. They are all good supplements, which cost a lot.
Chen Zikun said: "Your illness has been accumulated over many years of hard work. You can recover by taking care of it carefully. Don't go to the wind and rain to perform in the future. I will bear the cost if there is any."
Master Xia said: "Child, although we are a family, we don't speak two families, but you are not rich. If you spend all your money, how can you two live in the future?"
Chen Zikun smiled and said, "You underestimate me, right? I am now a second lieutenant officer, and I drive thirty yuan a month. In addition, I have reopened the Tsinghua Truck Factory. There are a lot of money every month. You don't have to worry about the money."
There were several green glass bottles in the basket. Master Xia picked them up and looked at the sunshine, and said suspiciously: "What kind of supplement is this?"
Chen Zikun smiled and said, "This is not a tonic, it is beer. I respect your old man."
When he heard it was wine, Master Xia became interested: "Oh, open a bottle and try it."
Chen Zikun said: "This wine is not what I drink, Xiaoqing!"
"Hey!" Xia Xiaoqing, who was photographing cucumbers in the outer room, put down the kitchen knife and lifted the curtain and came in.
"Dig a bucket of cold well water and ice these bottles of wine." Chen Zikun ordered.
Xia Xiaoqing raised his eyebrows and pinched Chen Zikun's ears: "Good boy, even though he knew my father was not in good health, he still asked him to drink. Are you tired of living?"
Chen Zikun hurriedly begged for mercy: "This wine malt is made of not hurting people, it is for health."
Xia Xiaoqing then let go, picked up the wine bottle and went out, and continued to pat the cucumber. Chen Zikun touched his hot ears and said, "Xiaoqing, if you do it, you can only pat the cucumber."
"I'll fight!" A slipper flew in. It was adhering to the unique skills of the Swallow Gate's hidden weapon. It was extremely fast at first speed. Chen Zikun couldn't avoid it and got a ruthless blow on his face.
Master Xia shook his head and sighed, but the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
This supper was eaten at the Xia family. The dishes were still fried in the hutong er Meat shop, plus a few cold dishes. The yellow and orange iced beer was poured into the sea bowl. Master Xia took a sip and frowned and said, "How come he looks like a horse pee."
Isn't that true? The mules, horses and donkeys on the street lifted their tails and sprinkled them on the ground, and their colors and tasted similar to those of this beer.
Chen Zikun said: "It's good to get used to drinking it. This bottle of wine costs 50 cents."
When Master Xia heard that it was so expensive, he didn't dare to neglect it. He picked up the bowl and drank it all. He savored it, and suddenly burped it.
"Happy!" Master Xia poured himself another bowl.
Xia Xiaoqing blinked, and her long eyelashes flashed, "It's so delicious? I'll have a bowl too." She was not polite at all. She picked up the wine bowl in front of Chen Zikun, tilted her neck and fucked her, wiped her mouth and smiled, "It's not spicy at all."
As a result, there were four bottles of beer in total, one bottle of Chen Zikun and Master Xia, and the remaining two bottles were wrapped by Xia Xiaoqing. In the end, they inherited her father's drunkard genes. After drinking beer, they still cleaned the plate and washed the dishes.
After drinking and having a good meal, after a while of conversation, it became dark. Chen Zikun stood up and said goodbye. Master Xia was determined to create an opportunity for the couple to get along alone, and said, "Xiaoqing, come back and wash the dishes and go to see Zikun off."
"Oh." Xia Xiaoqing agreed, wiped her hands and took off her apron, and went out with Chen Zikun.
The wind blew gently on the summer night, the bright moon was in the sky, and the stench of Longxugou hit, destroying the romantic and beautiful feeling. Xia Xiaoqing suddenly said, "There is the Temple of Heaven over there, go and sit there."
Chen Zikun said yes, and the two walked silently one after another, and unknowingly came to the Temple of Heaven. The Temple of Heaven is the place where the emperor sacrificed to heaven. Now that the emperor is gone, it has become a park. There are towering ancient trees everywhere, quiet and deep, with insects chirping in the grass, and the moonlight is cut into countless pieces by the shadows of the trees.
"I'm afraid..." Xia Xiaoqing suddenly snuggled over, and Chen Zikun smiled and said, "What are you afraid of?"
"Fear of ghosts."
"Haha, even if there is a ghost, I'm afraid of you, the female yaksha." Chen Zikun said.
Xia Xiaoqing was furious and pinched Chen Zikun’s waist hard, ran forward, and suddenly squatted on the ground with a whisper. Chen Zikun quickly stepped forward: "What's wrong?"
"The feet twisted." Xia Xiaoqing looked sad.
"I'll help you rub it, and I'm also a master of light skills. I can twist my feet after running two steps." Chen Zikun scolded her while rubbing her ankles. Suddenly, a bright moonlight shone on Xia Xiaoqing's face, and her long eyelashes were shaking, which was extremely moving.
"What do you mean?" Xia Xiaoqing's eyes were as charming as silk.
Chen Zikun rushed forward, kissed her hard, and panted, "That's what it means."
"Bad guy!" Xia Xiaoqing was furious and beat Chen Zikun to death. Her long legs were even clamped between his waist. The two of them fought and rolled into the grass...
Xia Xiaoqing fiddled with the weeds on her head, buttoned her, and said to Chen Zikun very seriously: "From the future, you will be mine."
