Chapter 635: Liu Cheng: I'm Still the Boy From Before
Chapter 635 Liu Cheng: I am still the same young man as before...
Liu Shui's fiancée Wu Mei and Dong Bai were not estranged from each other.
The two have met many times, and Dong Bai doesn't have a strong personality, so they get along very well.
But at this time, Wu Mei seemed very nervous and extremely reserved.
After all, at this time, in addition to her sister-in-law, the people eating with her also included her brother!
This brother is now a big man and a prominent figure.
Today I just became the King of Han.
His status, as well as all the honors he held, made people dare not show any slights.
It is impossible to say that I am not nervous.
Liu Cheng naturally noticed this. He smiled and said to Wu Mei, "Don't feel restrained, this is home."
No matter how high his status or reputation is outside, one thing will never change, that is, he is Liu Shui's brother and Wu Mei's brother.
Then he asked Wu Mei if she was used to living here.
He also said some time ago that he would choose a good and auspicious day to get married to Liu Shui and the others.
She said that Liu Shui would bully her in the future, and asked Wu Mei to tell her sister-in-law that she, the elder brother, would step in to deal with Liu Shui.
After some talking and getting along, the tension in Wu Mei's heart suddenly disappeared a lot.
Reticence and the like have also disappeared.
After all, although the brother in front of me has a great reputation outside, he is indeed very kind.
The relationship with her husband is displayed here.
My husband regards my brother as a brother and a father, and I also regard my brother as a brother and a father.
After Wu Mei stopped being so reserved, the atmosphere at the dinner table suddenly became much more peaceful.
Liu Cheng and others were talking to each other while eating.
Among them, the two main speakers were brothers Liu Cheng and Liu Shui.
As for Dong Bai, he and Wu Mei would talk to each other from time to time and exchange some words.
But more importantly, I was still there listening to my husband and two brothers talking to each other.
Each had a happy smile on their face.
Liu Cheng and Liu Shui didn't talk too much about serious matters, and basically talked about some of their own experiences.
After talking like this for a while, he somehow started talking about things from their childhood.
The days at that time were really hard.
Dong Bai and Wu Mei have never experienced this kind of hard life.
Both of them have very good family backgrounds. Even in the most difficult times, they don't have to worry about food, clothing, housing and transportation.
The two Liu Cheng brothers were different. They really had one meal but no next meal.
He will starve to death at any time.
The two brothers sat here and talked about the past, but as they grew older and their status changed, there was no longer too much bitterness when they talked about it.
On the contrary, I still miss some interesting things from my childhood.
After talking like this for a while, Liu Shui sighed: "It would be great if uncle and aunt were still here!
They will be very happy when they see this.”
After Liu Cheng and Liu Shui ate here for a while and chatted about some things, the two brothers got up from here and headed to another place.
Leave this place to Dong Bai and Wu Mei to eat here.
The reason why this happened was because Lu Yang also came over.
Lu Yang was the first retainer Liu Cheng accepted.
Moreover, over the years, allowing him to found and take charge of Jinyiwei can be said to have made great contributions to Liu Lili.
At this time, the role of Jinyiwei became more and more important.
Under such circumstances, how could Liu Cheng neglect Lu Yang?
After knowing that Lu Yang was coming, Liu Cheng asked Lu Yang to come over and sit down to eat together.
As a descendant, he didn't think there was anything wrong with doing this. In later generations, everyone ate at the same table.
But Lu Yang didn't think so. He was a retainer, and there was also the mistress of the house and Liu Shui's fiancée. How could someone like him dare to sit at the same table and eat at the same table?
He just said that he had eaten, and there was nothing wrong with him. He just hadn’t seen each other for a long time, so he came to see the emperor’s uncle...
"Uncle Emperor, you go to dinner, I have nothing to do..."
When Lu Yang saw Liu Cheng and Liu Shui coming over, he quickly said this.
Liu Cheng smiled and said, "I've already eaten."
How could Lu Yang believe it? After all, when he went to visit him just now, the food on the table was still very rich, and it looked like they had not eaten for a long time.
He knew that it was because of his coming that the emperor's uncle had only half finished the meal and then left it behind.
For a moment, I felt guilty and deeply moved.
Liu Cheng and Lu Yang smiled and said a few words, then said: "You two sit here and talk for a while. I will go to the kitchen to pack two side dishes and the three of us will have a drink together."
When Lu Yang heard this, he hurriedly stopped him.
Just kidding, the current lord is no longer the same as before. Today he has become the new King of Han. He has a high status and noble status. How can the King of Han be allowed to cook again?
Liu Cheng smiled and said: "Why is the King of Han not the King of Han? It's not just a level of status. Even if I really become the emperor, what will happen?
I am still me, still the pig-killing boy in Chenggao.
The relationship between you and me will not change in any way, and these are things that those people cannot understand or appreciate."
After saying that, he went straight to the kitchen, preparing to cook in person, and asked Liu Shui to accompany Lu Yang to wait for him here for a while.
Lu Yang's eyes were slightly red, and he was unwilling to sit here and wait.
After seeing that Liu Cheng insisted on cooking, he and Liu Shui went to the kitchen together.
After arriving there, Lu Yang rushed to kill him and light the fire.
Liu Cheng handled the dishes here with quick hands and feet. It didn't take long for the kitchen to be filled with fragrance.
Lu Yang, who was sitting there lighting the fire, looked at the lord who was cooking the food himself amidst the smoke. Not to mention the feelings in his heart.
I feel that my decision at that time was really the right one!
My lord, you are truly someone worth following for the rest of your life.
Even if he has become the King of Han, he is still the same as before, there is no difference.
With the dignity of the King of Han, he cooks for himself.
How important this is!
What an honor!
There were tears that couldn't help but flow out...
He quickly lay down at the mouth of the fire pond and blew on the fire, pretending that his eyes were hit by the smoke...
Liu Cheng's cooking skills were very good, and it didn't take long for him to prepare four dishes and one soup.
Liu Shui, Lu Yang and he and the three of them carried it, left the kitchen, went to a room, put it on the table, and then sat down to eat.
Liu Cheng called Lu Yang over, sat next to him, then picked up the jug and poured out some wine.
Then he personally brought it to Lu Yang.
Lu Yang hurriedly prepared to stand up and take it, but Liu Cheng smiled and pressed him down on the seat, preventing him from getting up.
"The few of us will have some homely meals and drink some wine together. There are no outsiders, so there is no need to be so formal."
Later, Liu Cheng took the lead in picking up the wine glass and invited Lu Yang and Liu Shui to drink together.
Several people clinked their glasses and drank them all in one gulp.
Then he started to eat the vegetables and chatted some words while eating.
Basically, it is also talking about the life in Chenggao.
Speaking of this, there was a sense of intimacy between the few of them, which arose in their hearts.
Especially Lu Yang.
"Who would have thought that my lord would be able to reach this point today.
The news about the emperor's uncle being crowned king has not been reported yet. If word spreads and people in my hometown know about it, they will be shocked and speechless."
Lu Yang picked up the jug and poured a glass of wine for each of Liu Cheng and Liu Shui, but did not pour any wine into his own cup.
Liu Cheng said with a smile: "Back off, I know you also like this drink. Since the establishment of Jinyiwei, I have been worried that drinking will cause trouble, so I have never drank more. Over the years, you have been wronged.
Today I came back and came to Chang'an.
Just make an exception and drink some freely to enjoy yourself.
If you get drunk, you can rest here tonight without worrying about anything going wrong.
Even if you really miss something this time, don't worry, nothing big will happen.
I’m here!”
As Liu Cheng said this, he reached out to take the jug from Lu Yang, and poured another glass of wine for Lu Yang himself.
"Come on, have a drink. I'm happy today. I'll make an exception when I retreat."
Lu Yang picked up the wine glass, clinked it with Liu Cheng and Liu Shui, and drank it all in one gulp.
After drinking two glasses of wine in succession, Lu Yang's eyes were a little moist and his eyes were red.
I just think this wine is the most delicious wine in the world.
I have never drunk such delicious wine before!
Lu Yang, who has a good drinking capacity, only drank two glasses of wine, but he already felt that he was drunk...
In the evening, Lu Yang stayed in the guest room of Liu Cheng's house to rest.
Lu Yang drank a lot tonight. Ever since he took over the responsibility of establishing and taking charge of the Jin Yiwei from Liu Cheng, he who had always liked drinking in the past suddenly became a total abstainer.
When I am happiest, I just use a small wine bowl and drink half of the bowl, just to taste it.
This is the first time I drank so much wine at once like today.
He drank too much and was swaying when he walked.
However, the whole person's consciousness seemed clear.
Thinking back on all this, I couldn't help but have a big smile on my face.
Lord, it’s really possible!
It’s really possible!!!
I really didn’t follow the wrong person!
At this time, relying on the lord, I have become famous, and no one dares to bully me and my family at will!
When faced with the situation like that, the people under his command were able to deal with a murderer like Cao Amo without any need to take action himself!
…
In Dong Bai's room, Liu Cheng, who smelled of alcohol, was lying on the bed with Dong Bai in his arms.
It was already the dead of night, but it didn't calm down here.
"Husband, you...haven't you already...
This...how can this be..."
Dong Bai's voice sounded with some shyness.
Liu Cheng's voice sounded: "Didn't you say that great-grandmother wanted us to have a child earlier?
How can I refuse my great-grandmother’s order?
It's hard work having children.
Your husband and I worked hard for my great-grandmother’s order..."
There was a brief silence in the room.
Then, Dong Bai's weak voice sounded.
"My husband... my wife... my grandmother said... said... that I was standing on my head..."
"Hiss~"
When Liu Cheng heard this, he couldn't help but take a breath of cold air. What kind of tiger and wolf words are these, and what kind of tiger and wolf methods are they?
This... this is really difficult!
…
After a long time, the room became completely quiet.
After a while, Liu Cheng's voice sounded: "Counting the days, your sister Zhaoji should be giving birth soon, and we will have to rush back to Yushan soon.
I will strive to welcome my first child into the world."
Hearing this, Dong Bai nodded and said, "Well, my husband is right. I also really want to see the little one come out."
When Dong Bai said this, the appearance of his great-grandmother appeared in his mind.
And my great-grandmother said more than once that she wanted to see her husband.
Dong Bai wanted to open his mouth and tell his husband this.
However, my husband does have a lot of things to do and is extremely busy.
Going back to see Sister Zhaoji give birth is also a very important thing.
After all, this is my husband's first child.
At this time, telling my great-grandmother what happened would only make things difficult for her husband.
well……
It's better to wait a little longer.
After her husband comes back from Yushan, she can talk to her husband about this matter...
As a result, it was at this time that Liu Cheng's voice rang out: "Tomorrow, Xiao Baibai, you and your husband and I will go to visit your great-grandmother.
After visiting my great-grandmother, I will return to Yushan the day after tomorrow."
After hearing Liu Cheng's words, Dong Bai couldn't help but be stunned, and a lot of warmth suddenly emerged in his heart.
"Husband...husband, it's better to stay with Sister Zhaoji. Let's go back to Yushan first. It doesn't matter if we go to my great-grandmother's place later."
Liu Cheng rubbed Dong Bai's head and said, "It's okay. Let's go to my great-grandmother first. It doesn't matter if I go back to Yushan one day later."
We have been married for a long time, and for various reasons, I have never been to my great-grandmother's place until now.
This is not good.
This time, I insist on meeting my great-grandmother."
"Husband..."
Dong Bai only felt endless warmth, wrapping himself up.
Full of deep happiness.
She was so excited that she couldn't help but hug Liu Cheng tightly.
Then, he started to slide into the bed inch by inch...
Unforgettable tonight...
"Husband, why don't you just sleep for a while? It's still early..."
Dong Bai opened his sleepy eyes, looked at the dim sky outside, and then looked at his husband who was almost dressed, and said this in a somewhat unclear manner.
"You have only slept for so little time...you have worked hard day and night, how can your body bear it?
Get more sleep, recuperate your spirit, and don’t burn out your body…”
He said he was about to get up.
Liu Cheng turned around with a smile and rubbed her forehead.
Press her down to prevent Dong Bai from getting up.
"Go to sleep, your husband is in good spirits.
On the battlefield, it is common to not sleep often.
I'm going to see my great-grandmother today. I can't go empty-handed. I'm going to make some things to take with me to see my great-grandmother.
This food takes some effort. If I get up late, I'm afraid I won't be able to make it..."
