Chapter eight hundred and twentieth: Five blessings come to the door
He deserves to be blamed for his slowness. On the one hand, he underestimated the allure of Chen Lao's delicious food to these big guys.
On the other hand, I also forgot about the ingredients on the table, which are delicacies that even Old Man Zao and the others find difficult to taste.
Seeing everyone's expressions of enjoyment, Ding Xiaoyi could only put down his chopsticks helplessly.
Fortunately, Mr. Chen’s serving speed is quite impressive.
Charcoal-grilled Chilong Sheep, Eight Treasures Fulu Duck, Braised Wufu Pork, Buddha Jumping over the Wall, Boiled Cabbage, Laughing Mountain Junmi Soup are just the main dishes, there are more than ten side dishes and so on.
There are more than ten tables in total, and all the dishes are served in a blink of an eye.
Thanks to Mr. Chen's superb cooking skills and the fact that he started preparing one after another three days in advance, many of the semi-finished products were processed and could be cooked in just a few clicks.
Otherwise, if the dishes were served one after another at the speed of a flowing mat, I wouldn't have to use chopsticks at all.
Although the serving speed is fast, every dish is full of life and flavor.
Especially when the dish of boiled cabbage was served, everyone was amazed.
The cabbage, which is shaped like a flower bone, is placed quietly on the dinner plate, seemingly inconspicuous, but when the soup is poured on it, the cabbage will bloom like a peony.
The soup seems to be as clear as boiling water, but it is even more sparkling with crystal light. It actually surrounds the cabbage, outlining the wheel of life and surrounding it with mist.
It's surprising that this dish is served per person, so Ding Xiaoyi naturally doesn't worry about being unable to compete with others, and the soup is as juicy as a mouthful.
Intuitively, the whole taste buds seem to be dancing.
In a daze, it was like a ray of scorching sun shining on my cheek, and the warmth seemed to come from my mother's hands, making me feel an indescribable warmth and security in my heart.
As the taste changes, a picture of mountains and flowing water emerges in front of you.
Between the ridges, shrouded in mist, a big buffalo was swimming leisurely in a clear pool, while a shepherd boy beside him was playing his flute, with a cheerful and innocent smile on his face.
There is a small house at the foot of the mountain, filled with smoke. Outside the house, three acres of fertile land are already full of various vegetables and fruits.
One mountain and one cow, one house and one field, the gods are carefree, and there is no fear of sewage. The happiness welling up from the depths of my heart emanates from the taste buds and goes straight to the depths of my soul.
Suddenly, even the big guys who were doing it couldn't help but fall silent in this seemingly indifferent but carefree and fairy-like happiness.
At this time, the old man was shocked. He saw a golden light shining on his body, and a word "Fu" appeared in his palm.
This scene made everyone's eyes widen with envy on their faces.
Fatty, who was sitting next to Ding Xiaoyi, took a look and couldn't help but murmured: "This old guy is so lucky, he is blessed with longevity.
The big guys present were able to get the Five Lucky Pigs, and very few received blessings of good luck.
In addition to the bad old man, the brother and sister Xie Qifanba sitting at the other table actually both received blessings of good fortune. They were blessed with wealth and good virtue.
Seeing Xie Qi's face full of little girl holding Fan Ba's arms crookedly, it was as if he had fed his tablemates, including the cow head and horse noodles, a mouthful of dog food.
After Ding Xiaoyi drank a few sips, his whole body felt hot, and he realized that he had received two different blessings of good fortune.
A good blessing and a lucky blessing.
The happy expression on his face instantly made him feel so happy.
I thought that as expected of Mr. Chen, the soup he had put in a lot of effort to make was not large in quantity, but it almost contained the essence of a whole Wufu pig. He was blessed with double blessings and was extremely lucky.
Just when he was secretly happy.
On another table next to the screen, light suddenly surged, and a golden light shot straight into the sky.
Suddenly, golden rain fell from the clouds and fell on the ground, immediately dyeing the grass golden.
Even the emperor was startled at this moment. He quickly put down his chopsticks and swept aside the screen to take a look. He saw Yu Niang holding the child in her arms with a confused look on her face.
The child's body is radiant with golden light and he looks like a little golden boy.
There is a word "福" on the child's palms, soles of feet, and chest, which is shining and dazzling with gold.
They are the five blessing characters [longevity, wealth, good virtue, health, and luck].
"Oh, my dear, this little baby is blessed with five blessings!"
Zhong Kui and others came forward to take a look. The leopard's eyes were wide open and his voice was roaring like thunder. It seemed that he had never seen such a rare thing in his long life.
The emperor looked at the little Ding Peng in Yu Niang's arms and said with joy: "This child's blessings are beyond the heavens. From now on, the blessing seal will last forever, which is equivalent to half of the incarnation of luck."
After everyone heard the emperor's words, they immediately looked at each other.
What is the incarnation of luck? If luck is water, then the incarnation of luck is the source of water.
The reason why the Five Blessed Pig King is the empress's favorite pet is because it is the incarnation of luck.
Now that the child has received the Five Blessings, he is equivalent to half the incarnation of luck, although not as defiant as the Five Blessing Pig King.
But it is enough to make the great gods like them envious. The most important thing is that the five blessings come to his door. As long as this child does not do anything that harms his morality in the future, the five blessings will always be on him.
Basically, he is the kind of person who picks up gems when he goes out and encounters adventures as soon as he sleeps. Who dares to catch his attention, haha... I guess he will be blocked by countless accidents before he takes action, so he is not lucky.
He probably didn’t even know how he died.
Even Ru Tu Tu and ghost emperors like Du Ziren would not dare to kill him rashly, unless they risked the possibility of their own luck being ruined.
Even Pangpang and the others were so surprised that their jaws almost dropped to the ground. After looking at the child carefully for a moment, their expressions suddenly straightened.
Putting his hands together, he said with a solemn and precious look on his face: "Five blessings are coming to my door. Golden rain is coming from the sky. This child... is destined to be destined to be my Buddha. Why don't Xiao Yi let the child worship me as his teacher now?"
As soon as Pangpang finished speaking, the scalps of the Tenth Hall Yama and others felt numb. Disciples of the Lord of the Netherworld, will this little brat not walk sideways on the huge underworld in the future?
Unexpectedly, the bad old man on the side raised his leg and kicked Pangpang away: "Fuck off, why are you destined to Buddha? You are obviously destined to me. I made an agreement with Xiao Yi a long time ago that I will personally teach this child from now on."
.”
As the old man said this, he did not forget to wink at Ding Xiaoyi.
It means that if you cooperate, I will benefit from you.
"Fart, when did it happen, why didn't I know? This kid's face is full of happiness, what future does he have with you, a big devil??" Pangpang rushed up and pointed at the old man's big nose and yelled.
"The Ding family has only one child for generations. If I follow you, I will be extinct first. How can I be called a blessing?" The old man immediately counterattacked.
"Fart, who told you that you can't have children if you practice Buddhism? I will accept him as a lay disciple." Pangpang was caught on the pain point and immediately became anxious.
Seeing that the two of them were arguing and had a huge quarrel, other people who had originally thought about it also gave up the idea.
After all, if there is a big boss like this who wants to fight, even Du Ziren, a powerful ghost emperor who dominates one side, cannot win.
Compared with the envy of the big guys.
Xie Qifanba and others enjoyed eating the beef head and horse noodles on the side table.
The roasted lamb chops held in the cow's head were chewed with gusto. While eating, he asked: "What are they fighting about?"
The snoring Buddha jumped over the wall and ate like crazy. Hearing this, he squinted his eyes and said, "Eat your food. It's not our turn to fight over anything. Eh? Where's my duck head??"
Niu Tou nodded, raised his wine glass and drank with Fan Ba, and everyone ate happily.
At this time, the emperor took out a small golden lock with strange light from his sleeve and put it on the child himself. While putting it on, he said:
"It's too strong and easy to break, and having too much luck may not be a good thing. Carrying one with you can suppress his luck by three points. Don't let your child take it off unless absolutely necessary."
"Good luck is not a good thing??" Ding Xiaoyi stood aside with a question mark on his face.
The emperor glanced at him and said calmly: "Some people are very lucky and get everything they want throughout their lives, but just one bad luck is enough to kill them.
On the other hand, there are also people who are extremely unlucky and spend their entire lives in poverty, but they only need one stroke of luck to soar into the sky, and no one can stop them."
This point caused many people to nod. They are all old guys who have lived for a long time, and they are the gods in charge of the underworld.
Naturally, I have seen such extremely outrageous cases.
The emperor continued: "Once anything reaches its extreme, if it cannot break through the shackles, it will plummet and fall quickly. This is the case for too many peerless geniuses in history."
Seeing what the emperor said was so serious, Ding Xiaoyi felt relieved.
"If you lose three points of luck, you have to make up for it." The empress held the child in her arms, thought for a moment, stretched out her hand, took out a small golden bell, and tied it to the child's ankle.
"This bell is called the ground bell. Wherever you go from now on, you only need to shake the bell, and all the elves in the surrounding plants and animals, including those running on the ground and swimming in the water, will listen to it."
The Emperor and the Empress made up for each other. The little guy had a longevity lock on his neck and a golden bell on his feet. He smiled happily.
Others also took out the gifts they had prepared in advance and presented them to the children.
I can’t say how effective these gifts are, but each one is rare enough.
For example, the Kamuluo fruit sent by Yama from the Tenth Palace is said to be gifted with wisdom when a child is three years old and eats it.
There are also the two pairs of jade balls that Du Ziren gave before, called Linglong Baixiu Balls, which can summon the true spirits of the beasts inside.
Pangpang gave him a cassock with eight celestial dragons embroidered on it, as if they could fly out at any time.
Old Man Zao gave him a Doumu Heart Seal, which contained twelve kinds of strange spells, which could be summoned by the child as long as he activated them with his spiritual energy.
As for the various other treasures piled up together, the little guy was almost surrounded by treasures.
The little dimples on her little face are exposed when she smiles.
Just like in the fairy tale, the little princess who was blessed by the witches was as happy, but in this fairy tale, the vicious bad witch did not appear.
After everyone had given away the gifts, they only waited for three rounds of wine and cleared away the food on the table. Then they happily called their pets who were still dancing next door and stood up to say goodbye.
The Emperor and the Empress left one after another. Looking at the direction in which they left, they were heading towards Youshan. No one dared to follow them, for fear that the two leaders would start a fight and bring disaster to fish like them.
.
"You guys have to hurry up, remember, report once every three months and report on the progress!"
When Zhong Kui left, he didn't forget to take Ding Xiaoyi's arm and give him instructions.
His tone has improved a lot compared to before. After all, the principle of being short-tongued and merciless can be used anywhere.
Just with the can of lard in his arms, even if Zhong Kui is selfless, he can't always criticize Ding Xiaoyi too much.
It was not easy to send all these big guys away.
Ding Xiaoyi just wiped the non-existent sweat on his forehead. He was exhausted after dealing with this.
Even Meatball, who was responsible for the strike, was exhausted.
He turned around and ran straight into the kitchen, looking at Mr. Chen who was still cleaning up in the kitchen, and said quickly: "Hurry, hurry, hurry, is there anything else to eat? I'm almost crazy with hunger."
This time the boss acted really fast and ruthlessly. A table of food was wiped out without even taking a single bite.
As a result, his stomach is not full now.
Mr. Chen seemed to have expected this. He pointed at the steamer, and Ding Xiaoyi opened it. Hehe, he saw eighteen bowls of sea food inside that were heating up.
He hurriedly greeted Yu Niang, and Shuang'er and the others came over to clear out a big table.
The group of people sat at the table and finally had a solid meal.
While I was eating, I saw Big Head running over from the backyard with a happy expression on his face.
Hongmao and Fairjord followed behind, their faces full of exhaustion, obviously they had been tortured enough.
On the contrary, it was Box Man, this idiot, with a naive look on his face, and his big eyes looking around, looking for anything to eat.
Ding Xiaoyi kicked away the box spirit who was approaching his son, and invited Datou to come over and eat with him.
Last time the Wufu Pig, Da Tou, a fool, ran outside and drifted for a long time without eating, this time he was finally allowed to enjoy it.
"happy!!"
After Big Tou happily ate two pieces of meat, he saw a golden light shining all over his body, as if he had changed into krypton gold skin. After a moment, he saw a word "福" growing out of Big Tou's tentacles.
Ding Xiaoyi couldn't recognize what kind of blessing it was. Anyway, if he was blessed, just bless him.
Datou obviously ate a lot at his own little party. He just gave it to the group of divine pets and ate a lot himself. He didn't have much appetite at the moment, so he happened to take over Yu Niang's child.
Take out the treasures sent by the gods one by one and use them as toys for the children.
Seeing the scene of his son lying on a pair of rare treasures, Ding Xiaoyi couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
I thought that the emperor might be right, there is nothing that cannot be done to the extreme. This little kid is so happy, just with so many treasures.
He is almost richer than himself, no, including this kid's accompanying artifact...well, he is already richer than himself.
When I go to school in the future, it seems like I should be more careful.
"Xiao Yi, we have discussed it. From now on, this boy will be our disciple. I will teach this bald guy from the age of three until he is twelve years old."
At this time, the old man and Pangpang seemed to have finally reached a conclusion on the issue of who should be their child's master.
Just by looking at the unhappy look on the old man's face, I knew that Pangpang must have taken advantage of him.
Ding Xiaoyi doesn't object to this at all, but after the child turns three, he has to go to school during the day, leaving only three hours for Pangpang at night.
This was his bottom line. No matter what Pangpang said, Ding Xiaoyi would not give in.
Although what I learned in school, let alone one day, even one year may not be as much as what Pangpang teaches.
But I still hope that my children can live more like children in their childhood.
The bad old man on the side silently gave a thumbs up, looking at the depressed look on Pang Pang's face, he felt so happy that he quietly put a package from under the table into Ding Xiaoyi's hand.
