Chapter 85 Beef Hot Pot

The words "big sea, it's full of water" shocked everyone.

Everyone secretly thought, indeed, this is the style of the old Cheng family.

Just listen to Cheng Chumo's courageous recitation.

"The sea, it's all water!"

"A horse, it has four legs!"

"Spider, it's all legs!"

"Youran, you are so beautiful!"

"Under the nose, there is a mouth!"

The sound suddenly stopped!

At this critical moment, Cheng Chumo actually forgot his lyrics.

Everyone looked confused.

This nondescript thing has never been seen by anyone present.

However, it sounds quite impressive.

Li Eryi slapped the table: "What nonsense, Cheng Chumo, you are really capable of talking nonsense."

Wei Zheng said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, Cheng Chumo is clearly trying to make excuses and make excuses. Your Majesty, you must not listen to his nonsense."

Li Er rubbed his numb head and suddenly felt that this matter was not easy to deal with.

Whether it is Wei Zheng or Cheng Yaojin, they are his right-hand men. If they are not handled properly, they may break the hearts of the ministers.

He stood up and said: "Huh, this matter will be discussed another day. Cheng Chumo will continue to be detained in Dali Temple and withdraw from the court!"

Everyone was dumbfounded.

This matter has not yet come out, and you are retreating from the court?

But who dared not listen to Li Er's words? Everyone dispersed immediately.

Cheng Yaojin walked up to Wei Zheng proudly and whispered: "Master Wei, this matter cannot be solved for a while. I have a suggestion. You might as well listen to it."

Wei Zheng snorted and said nothing.

Cheng Yaojin said to himself: "You see, these two children have a good relationship, and Chumo is sincere to Youran. How about I, old Cheng, choose a day to come to your house to propose marriage? From now on, we will be a family. "

Wei Zheng angrily tossed his sleeves and turned to leave.

In Lao Wei's heart, he did look down on Duke Lu's mansion.

This family is so rough, who would want to marry their daughter?



In the afternoon, news from the palace reached Du He's ears.

Before Du He could react.

Then they saw Cheng Yaojin, Qin Qiong, Yuchi Baolin, Qin Huaiyu, and Hu Lala all arriving at Laiguo Duke's Mansion.

Cheng Yaojin actually brought over a newly killed calf.

Du He was stunned when he saw this scene.

This period of time happened to be just after the spring plowing, so the Wuhou of Chang'an City paid special attention to the buying and selling of cattle when they patrolled the city. If anyone dared to kill cattle and eat meat, they would be caught in the prison of Chang'an County Government. He will be imprisoned for several months and fined a sum of money.

Du He was really shocked by Lao Cheng's cunning tactics of committing crimes against the wind.

Cheng Yaojin stepped forward and said with a smile: "Du He, I came here specifically to thank you today. The meat of this little ox is very tender. Let's eat hot pot here today. This beef is much more delicious than mutton, hehe. ...Don't worry, Lao Du, I won't cause you any trouble. This cow was killed in my house. I have sent someone to inform Chang'an County Magistrate Xu Zhiyuan. I am a strange cow. I always commit suicide when nothing happens, so this It was suicide."

Even Du Ruhui next to him showed a yearning expression.

Du He was speechless.

Lao Cheng has done this thing not once or twice. It's like being familiar with the road. The cow is sick, the cow wants to commit suicide, the cow is about to die of old age... Anyway, he can find a reason every time.

When the incident reached Li Er's ears, Li Er could only turn a blind eye.

However, seeing the tender yellow beef, Du He couldn't help but lick his lips.

After coming to Datang, I have been eating mutton, but I haven’t eaten beef much.

Immediately, Du He called the old man over and made arrangements himself, preparing for the cook to take action.

But Qin Qiong stopped him and said, "It's rare that everyone is in the mood today. Why don't you, Du He, take charge and let's do it?"

So, under the command of Du He, Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin, and Du Ruhui all went into battle, cutting meat, washing vegetables, and lighting fires.

If others saw this, they would inevitably be accused of being a gentleman far away from the kitchen, but the few people present did not have such ideological baggage, and they were happy to work.

In a short time, the hot pot and side dishes were ready.

Cheng Yaojin kicked Cheng Chumo: "You idiot, why don't you hurry up and get the fine wine that I have been collecting for five years?"

Cheng Chumo silently went to get the wine.

After everyone sat down, Cheng Yaojin poured the wine, stood up first, and said to Du He: "Ordinarily, I should drink this glass of wine with Lao Du first, but today's silence was all arranged by Du He.

Okay, you little brat, you are indeed as smart as Lao Du. Come on, I'll give you a toast."

After Du He drank, Cheng Yaojin said again: "It's just that Chu Mo is still imprisoned in Dali Temple now, and I don't know when he will be released. I have to ask you for more help."

Du He smiled slightly and said: "Uncle Cheng, please don't worry. Chu Mo and I are as close as brothers. I can't just sit idly by when something happens to him. Don't worry, the key to this matter now lies with Wei Zheng. I'll think of a solution from now on."

If you start with him, Chu Mo will naturally come out when the time comes."

"Okay, I like this temper, haha, I'll toast you again!"

As he said that, he picked up the cup again.

Fortunately, the alcohol content of the wine at this time was low. If it had been a higher-strength wine, Du He would probably have collapsed by the time he drank two large glasses of it.

The atmosphere immediately became lively.

Cheng Yaojin drank the most, and in the end he pulled Du He's hand in a daze and said, "Little bastard, to tell you the truth, I really wanted to beat you before, especially when you escaped from marriage, if I hadn't seen you beating me.

But for the sake of your bodyguard, you have been beaten into a pig head by me, Old Cheng. Hey, during this period, you have really opened my eyes. As long as you can rescue Chu Mo, Du He, you

He will be my brother from now on, haha..."

Du He hurriedly shouted: "Uncle Cheng, the seniority is at odds."

It's a pity that Lao Cheng has been drunk for a long time, so he can't care about this.

Finished one meal.

It was almost midnight.

In the end, Du Ruhui arranged for Qin Qiong and Cheng Yaojin to be sent away.

Then, Du Ruhui turned around, looked at Du He solemnly, and asked: "You were so sure that you could rescue Cheng Chumo just now. He'er, what good idea do you have?"

Du He smiled and said: "There must be a way, but I haven't thought of it yet."

"..."

Du Ruhui was a little speechless.

He found that he couldn't understand Du He more and more.

Du Ruhui looked at Du He's mature eyes that were obviously beyond his peers, and said softly: "He'er, when you grow up, no matter what you do, your father will support you. But you need to be more careful. Now your eldest brother is out there.

As an official, you don’t have anyone around you to help you, so you still have to rely on yourself for everything.”

Du He nodded and said seriously: "Dad, I understand."

In the original time and space, Lao Du died four years after Zhenguan, but here, Lao Du has lived until now. Although he looks healthy, his health has never been very good. Thinking of this, Du He couldn't help but feel worried.
