Wang Le had endless things to do. Ever since he came out of the gathering place, he had never stopped working. Although he was busy, Wang Le lived his life to the fullest. Because only when he was busy would he not think about the Romance of the Three Kingdoms that he might have to face when he returned home.
The news of Zhang Xiaoqiang's future was brought over by Zhang Huai'an. Today, Zhang Huai'an was different from usual. The gloominess and depression on his face had completely disappeared. His whole face was glowing. Carrying two bottles of unlabeled liquor and a bag of sliced pig's ears, he went to Wang Le's work place.
Wang Le loved liquor as much as his life, but Zhang Huai'an's arrival did not attract his attention. There were too many things that needed to be done, even if there was liquor. The focused Wang Le could resist the temptation of ordinary liquor. Of course, he could only resist ordinary liquor. When Zhang Huai'an unscrewed the lid and took a small sip, Wang Le dropped the tools in a daze and found his way to the place where the liquor was smelling like he was sleepwalking.
"Hundred … Hundred years old liquor. Zhang Huai'an, you old thing, you actually have private goods?"
Wang Le's lips trembled. He grabbed the other bottle, unscrewed the lid, and took a small sip. Then, it melted in his mouth. After a long while, he swallowed it down his throat and let out an intoxicated moan.
Zhang Huai'an glanced at Wang Le with a face full of disdain. He picked up a piece of pig's ear and stuffed it into his mouth. While chewing, he said,
"Look at you. Do you have to be like this?
I gave you quite a lot of liquor in the past. If you drank sparingly, you wouldn't be like this. "
After saying that, Zhang Huai'an shook his head with a look of anger. Actually, Zhang Huai'an wasn't any better. The liquor that was given to him last time had been finished long ago. Zhang Xiaoqiang and Mu Peipei got drunk and broke a wine jar. Zhang Huai'an bribed Meow with a Type-95 rifle. Only then was he able to steal half a jar of wine from Zhang Xiaoqiang. Thus, without anyone knowing, Zhang Huai'an still had some private goods.
Wang Le didn't care about Zhang Huai'an who kindly gave him the liquor. He enjoyed the liquor in the bottle alone. Zhang Huai'an didn't say anything and drank with Wang Le. After two bottles of liquor went down his stomach, Wang Le couldn't bear to waste the remaining liquor. He carefully covered the lid and glanced at the liquor bottle in Zhang Huai'an's hand unwillingly. He shook his head and said, "Aren't you so busy that your butt is on fire?
Why do you have the time to come drink with me? "
"Gulp …"
Zhang Huai'an fiercely gulped down a mouthful of liquor. He opened his mouth and exhaled a breath of alcohol. He raised his eyebrows and glanced at Wang Le. He shook his head and said with a slight teasing tone, "Wang Le, Wang Le, can't you see that I'm different from usual today?"
Zhang Huai'an was happy. Previously, he had given up on himself because of guilt. If he hadn't been busy with work, he might have started to let his imagination run wild. When he suddenly learned that Zhang Xiaoqiang had a child, he felt as if he had a grandson. Zhang Huai'an had always told others that he was Zhang Xiaoqiang's uncle. Zhang Xiaoqiang didn't refute it. Over time, Zhang Huai'an also thought so. Although Zhang Xiaoqiang had found him a daughter, it was not as intimate as a boy.
With a child, Zhang Huai'an had the hope to live on. Although it was still a long time before the child was born, Zhang Huai'an decided to manage Zhang Xiaoqiang's business well and leave a good foundation for the next generation. Therefore, Zhang Huai'an found a goal in life and was no longer as decadent as before.
"There's nothing different …"
Wang Le didn't want to drink anymore. He ate the braised pig ears that Zhang Huai'an had brought over. Zhang Huai'an didn't care and said proudly, "Ha, I have a grandnephew."
Wang Le was confused when he heard this. Zhang Huai'an's family was all dead. Where did he get a grandnephew?
"Wang Le, Zhang Xiaoqiang has a child. I have a grandnephew …"
Wang Le was surprised at first, but then he was happy. Then he thought about how to prepare a gift for Zhang Xiaoqiang's son.
It was rare for Huang Quan to spend some time with Chen Ye. Chen Ye looked at the food she cooked and frowned. Zhang Xiaoqiang had more and more evolvers, so Chen Ye, who wasn't outstanding in any aspect, had to leave the frontline. Huang Quan welcomed Chen Ye's departure. Chen Ye didn't like fighting, so she led the second-line troops to maintain order.
Seeing that all the other women were cooking for the soldiers at the frontlines, Chen Ye decided to make a dinner of love for Huang Quan. However, no matter how she looked at it, the food was not pleasing to the eye. There was no fragrance, no color, and the plate of stir-fried vegetables looked like moldy dried vegetables.
The rice was not right either. Chen Ye didn't know why the rice looked the same after it was cooked. If it wasn't for the steam, Chen Ye would have thought that the rice had not been boiled.
Although Chen Ye was not satisfied, Huang Quan was very satisfied. He was happy that Chen Ye was willing to cook for him. He could learn if he didn't know how to cook, but if he didn't want to, he would never have the chance to eat home-cooked food.
Huang Quan picked up a vegetable that looked like dried vegetables and put it in his mouth. He ate it without changing his expression. He then took a bite of the half-cooked rice and chewed happily. Chen Ye couldn't help but worry that Huang Quan would have diarrhea. However, she felt sweet inside. It was rare for her to be moved by Huang Quan.
"Don't eat it if it's not good …"
Chen Ye tried to persuade him gently, but Yellow Springs didn't care. He grinned and continued to eat. As he ate, he said,
He said while eating, "It's okay. It's better than compressed biscuits. I can eat compressed biscuits for months. This is nothing …"
"Pfft!"
Chen Ye burst into laughter. She gently hammered Huang Quan's shoulder a few times and turned to look at the stars in the distant night sky. After a while, she suddenly turned back and stared at Huang Quan's eyes without blinking. Huang Quan put down his bowl and chopsticks and looked at Chen Ye.
"Why do you like me? I'm not outstanding, I'm not beautiful, and I don't have a good temper …"
Chen Ye had always felt inferior. She was just a very ordinary girl. If it weren't for her ability, she would probably still be in the base with her classmates, preparing to get married, have children, make clothes, and do odd jobs.
In the past, Huang Quan wasn't outstanding, and Chen Ye wasn't prepared to live alone for the rest of her life. She wanted to make do with it, but who knew that Huang Quan was the most promising general under Zhang Xiaoqiang. He suddenly became the commander of Zhang Xiaoqiang's direct troops and commanded thousands of soldiers. Although he was still a captain in name, everyone knew that if Zhang Xiaoqiang reorganized the troops, Huang Quan would be a captain, and his military rank would be at least a major.
In other words, in terms of military affairs, Huang Quan was the number one person after Zhang Xiaoqiang. Three had already been left far behind, and his rank would be the same as Old Frank and the rest. It could be said that his future was limitless, so Chen Ye became less and less confident. In addition, Huang Quan still had a beautiful first love, Zhao Xiaobo. She was worried that Huang Quan wouldn't want her, but she was also worried that she wasn't worthy of Huang Quan, so she was always in a dilemma. Until today, Chen Ye suddenly wanted to ask for an explanation. Maybe Zhao Xiaobo's daily activities stimulated her, or maybe Mu Peipei's pregnancy gave her some ideas.
"Our Huang Family is a large family that has been passed down since the Song Dynasty. Although there have been ups and downs, our Huang Family has always abided by the ancient teachings. It is also because of this ancient teaching that our Huang Family has never been severed.
One of the ancient teachings is that the Huang Family's daughter-in-law doesn't look at her background, looks, or knowledge, but only looks at her character.
If she's virtuous, then even if she's ugly, we can't look down on her. If she's immoral, then even if she's as beautiful as a goddess, she's not allowed to enter the family. "
Huang Quan didn't know how to dispel Chen Ye's suspicions. He might as well pull out the flag and let his ancestors testify for him. Then, he recalled whether the Huang Family really had ancient teachings?
It seemed like his grandfather didn't mention it when he was young.
