Cheng Chubi had a dark look on his face. This father really didn't have any taboos at all. He would say such things easily. I was really convinced.
Cheng Chumo picked at the desk with his carrot-thick fingers unhappily. "Dad, why can Brother Niu go?"
These words made the kind old father roll his eyes. Cheng bit the gold wine glass and went to the table to have a meal.
"You kid, can Niu Weituo be the same as you? That kid is ambitious and has wanted to go into battle and make contributions since he was a child. What about your kid?"
"When I was 14 or 15 years old, I went to the dog hole with my third son and sneaked out of the house to play."
"???" The corners of Cheng Chubi's eyes stood up. He was so damn stupid. That's not me. I didn't do it.
Cheng Chubi reminded him somewhat unhappily. "Dad, when you say eldest brother, just say eldest brother. Why are you taking me along with you?"
Cheng Yaojin laughed loudly. "Okay, dad was wrong and I didn't take you with me."
But boss and second brother, it’s really hard to let you go out in battle this time. After all, dad is not the coach. The three guards your Majesty mobilized this time,
The Guardsmen staying with you two just missed it. I can't go to the Ministry of War at this time.
Putting you in those three guards, isn't this robbing people of their jobs?"
After such explanation, although the eldest brother and the second brother were a little reluctant, they still accepted the result honestly.
After all, the old Cheng family is not like Uncle Niu's family. They are relatively open-minded. The family usually does things through consultation, and the relationship between father and son is very close.
It's not like Uncle Niu and his son, they are just two boring gourds, squatting together and probably not being able to say more than two sentences a day.
Cheng Chubi felt extremely tired when he thought of the exchanges between father and son when they met in the suburbs in the west of the city that day.
Maybe on weekdays, the communication between father and son is: Eat? Eat. Leave. Hmm...
After comforting the eldest and second child, Cheng Yaojin stroked his thick beard like a steel needle, and his kind and doting eyes fell on the third child who was immersed in eating meat.
Cheng Chubi, who was gnawing on the leg of lamb, soon felt his father's awl-like gaze.
Turning his head, he saw his father's big, shining eyes, and the smile on his face looked so meaningful, even a little proud.
Cheng Chubi was completely confused. "Dad, what are you looking at me for? Is there something wrong with the child?"
I saw my father happily stroking his thick beard like a steel needle and shaking his head.
"Haha... It's okay. I just feel that the third child in our family is good at both civil and military skills and is very eloquent. This is very similar to me when I was young."
Cheng Chubi quickly flattered him. "This is all because of your good teaching, dad. Otherwise, how could the child have such a future?"
The eldest brother Cheng Chumo also quickly echoed, "Yeah, yeah, yeah, dad's teachings are good."
The second brother Cheng Chuliang took a nap. "Dad is right."
Cheng Yaojin glared unhappily at this guy who couldn't even flatter him sincerely. Forget it, I'm in a good mood today and won't argue with the kids.
But having said that, when I go out with the army, I must ask the third child to come and see me off.
When Cheng Yaojin thought about it, he would praise it with great dignity, and the third child shook his head and wrote a poem for his old father, who was both civilized and military, which would be remembered forever.
I wonder if those old guys would go crazy with jealousy at that refreshing feeling. Thinking of this, Cheng Yaojin couldn't help but laugh out loud.
This sudden and mysterious laughter frightened the Cheng family who were eating and shuddered in unison.
I don’t even understand what’s going on with my father, who has a sinister expression and furtive eyes.

Cheng Chubi hummed a little tune and entered the East Palace with square steps. The second deputy leader of the Royal Tang Dynasty and Prince's security team began to work again.
It was only then that Cheng Chubi rushed to the vicinity of Lizheng Hall, and happened to see that Yuchi Baoqing, who was about to take over his duties, looked like a New Year stall owner.
There he was waving a large piece of paper full of colors in his hand and shouting loudly.
"Come on, come on, brothers who have just arrived on duty, this year's Chinese New Year, if you want to guard your home to avoid evil spirits, you can go to a certain house and get two. Each person has two. It's free."
Cheng Chubi squeezed over curiously, picked up one and looked at it intently, immediately feeling happy.
"Hey, brother Baoqing, can this be your father and Uncle Qin?"
Yuchi Baoqing glared at Cheng Chubi with a resentful look, and said with a strong voice, "Of course, alas..."
"Brother Baoqing, why are you sighing? Speaking of which, why did you bring this thing to the palace to give away? Isn't it sold outside?"
Yuchi Baoqing threw the engraving art works in his hands to his subordinates and asked them to continue distributing them.
Then he pulled Cheng Chubi to the side, and then stared at Cheng Chubi with a resentful look on his face.
Cheng Chubi immediately got goosebumps all over his body when he saw the big black-and-white eyes of this big, muscular, round-waisted man staring at him with resentment.
"Brother, if you have something to say, just say it. Can you please stop being so sad?" Cheng Chubi rubbed his elbows and looked at this man warily.
"Sigh... After all, it's not because of your father..." Yuchi Baoqing sighed deeply.
"Who made your family become good things that the people of Chang'an City use to ward off evil spirits in their homes? But my father is not happy about it."
From Yuchi Baoqing's mouth, I learned that General Yuchi dragged General Qin and the two of them to find the artist Yan.
He painted pictures for the two of them, and then General Yuchi personally paid for them and gave them to the engraving and printing house to make them for sale.
However, a large amount of the market has been taken over by "Cheng Family's Picture of Exorcising Evils in Houses", which makes "Yu Chi Gong and Qin Qiong's Pictures of Exorcising Evils in Houses" somewhat unsaleable.
The displeased General Yuchi became even more unhappy, so he ordered his two sons to pick up the "Yuchi Gong, Qin Qiong's House Exorcism Picture" to give to Paoze's friends.
Only then did the scene appear in front of him. Looking at Yuchi Baoqing with a resentful face, Cheng Chubi covered his stomach and almost fell on the snow with laughter.
"You are so damn funny, how about you, dear brother, help me distribute some?" Yuchi Baoqing glared at Cheng Chubi unhappily, then softened after thinking about it.
Seeing Yuchi Baoqing looking like he was about to draw his sword at the slightest disagreement, Cheng Chubi laughed happily.
"Okay, but just give me a few sets. I can't give away more. After all, in our workshop, almost all of them are portraits of our old Cheng family."
Well, I just happened to take a few sets home to show to my father, so that our whole family can enjoy the misfortune.
"By the way, I heard that your father is also going to lead the army on an expedition?" After throwing a few sets of "Yu Chi Gong, Qin Qiong's House Exorcism Pictures" to Cheng Chubi, Yu Chi Baoqing asked with envy.
Cheng Chubi nodded and happily squatted with Yuchi Baoqing to brag.
"Well, my father has already said that your right servant Li Jing, who has already served as an official, has been appointed by Your Majesty again. This person will definitely be able to deal with those barbarians in Tuyuhun."
"Oh, it's a pity. My father also wanted to fight for a reputation, but unfortunately he didn't get it." Yuchi Baoqing shook his head helplessly.
"It was still embarrassing for your father. He almost got into a fight with General Hou in the court. Although he was fined a salary, he finally got a quota..."
