Chapter 168(1/2)

Li Xiao woke up naturally in the morning and lay in bed looking at the curtain on the ceiling for a long time.

Then he stood up and rushed into the toilet like flying.

Chihime Tokugawa, who was sitting by the bed waiting for her husband, was stunned.

After falling for thousands of miles, I shivered happily.

"What time is it?" Li Xiao asked while lifting his pants.

"Half past eleven!"

"What?" Li Xiao looked at the big clock in the corner in shock.

Sure enough, the time was already 11:30 noon.

Li Xiao's biological clock has always been very accurate, and he usually wakes up before six o'clock in the morning.

But I didn't expect that I actually slept until half past eleven today.

"You're hungry! People have prepared food, including the rice porridge and meat buns you like to eat.

The minced meat minced in the morning was wrapped by my own hands." Before Li Xiao could speak, Tokugawa Chiki had already walked outside to give instructions.

Li Xiao's requirements for breakfast are similar to those in the military camp.

As long as you stay in the capital, it's usually steamed buns, rice porridge, or steamed buns.

Li Xiao doesn’t eat stir-fried vegetables in the morning, and the dishes are usually pickles. The essential one is the cold seaweed!

Japan is an island country, surrounded by the ocean.

Therefore, the Japanese people have unique insights into cooking seafood, and Tokugawa Chihime is a master of cooking seafood.

An ordinary dish of cold seaweed tasted much more delicious when she made it.

Soon, the door opened.

Two maids came in pushing the dining cart and placed all kinds of food on the table.

The warm rice porridge and the exquisite two-cup steamed buns are still steaming. I don’t know how Tokugawa Chihime did it.

There was an egg on the plate, and there were only two kinds of dishes.

Cucumber mixed with sting skin, and the unbeatable seaweed salad.

While serving dishes, Li Xiao saw that Tokugawa Chihime was particularly elegant today.

The skin on her face was as tender as a peeled egg, and her cheeks were still rosy red.

The whole person looks radiant and energetic!

The culprit who woke up at half past eleven has been found. It seems that this woman needs a man to nourish her.

Just like Tokugawa Chihime who was nourished by Li Xiao, like a blooming hibiscus flower.

"Why didn't you wake me up earlier? There were a lot of people waiting to see you, and a lot of things were delayed." Li Xiao picked up the bowl and started drinking porridge.

Chihime Tokugawa peeled the eggs with a smile. After peeling one egg, she placed it on a plate.

"My lord, you are tired on the front line. You can have a peaceful sleep at home.

It only takes one morning, so if you delay, you will be delayed.

I heard from Lin'er that there aren't many battles on the front line now.

If we delay for a whole morning, those yellow-haired people will not be able to change the world."

"That's what it says,

But the Ming Dynasty didn't rest even with millions of troops in Russia. How could I, as the commander-in-chief, rest?

Peel another egg!"

Li Xiao likes to eat this kind of sugar-filled eggs. The yolk is between solidified and not solidified.

This requires a good grasp of the heat and time when boiling eggs.

"promise!"

"I'm not coming back tonight, I'm going to Jinzhou." While talking, Li Xiao had already finished a basket of steamed buns and drank a large bowl of rice porridge.

The two plates of pickles were all eaten up in one go.

"You came back from such a far away place and you didn't have a good rest for two days?" Tokugawa Chiki peeled an egg again and put it on Li Xiao's plate.

"I don't have time to rest. I have a lot of things to do when I come back this time. I'm afraid I'll have to stay in Liaodong for more than half a month.

Then I’m going to Xi’an and then to the Western Regions!

There are many things along the way that you have to see with your own eyes, otherwise you won’t feel at ease.”

"How can you see such a huge country with your eyes? Why don't you let Lin'er help you see it? Father and son are going into battle. Why don't you worry about sending him?"

"Don't get involved in these things. Just take care of the affairs in the house."

"There is something really going on in the house. Lin'er is eighteen this year and has reached the age of getting married.

During the Chinese New Year, the historian even vaguely asked the Nu family about Lin'er's marriage...!

What do you think, Miss Shijia can't always wait like this."

Tokugawa Chihime said with some embarrassment.

"Oh, this is the matter.

Lin'er wants to accompany me to Liaodong to inspect the equipment. You can take care of it here. I will hold an engagement ceremony for him when I return to Beijing.

As for the wedding, we have to wait until this battle is over.

In this way, we can also give historians an explanation."

"My Lord, in our family, when we marry a daughter-in-law, we must have some etiquette.

The Nu family asked someone and found out that the Ming Dynasty paid attention to three matchmakers and six appointments.

You are like this..."

"Oh!" Li Xiao frowned. He was unfamiliar with these complicated etiquette.

The main reason is that I have lived two lifetimes and never experienced this incident.

"Matchmaker..., let me tell my fourth brother.

He is Lin'er's fourth uncle and the second minister of the imperial court, so his status and status are appropriate. He is from his own family!

As for other things, let the fourth brother go find Sun Ruyou.

He is the Minister of Rites and understands these things.

We must give the historians enough face, and spend the money that should be spent on big things. We must not make people think that our family treats others lightly, understand?"

"No! With you, it will be done."

"Let me tell the historian clearly that it is not our Li family who wants to hold the bridge, but the battle on the front line is not over yet, so I am planning a grand wedding for my son. This is not appropriate."

"Master! When will this battle be over? If it takes three to five years...!"

"Soon!

The yellow-haired people have already sent their old men and children to the battlefield, and they will not be able to hold on for long."

"Hey! I don't understand national affairs. I'm just afraid that you won't like Miss Shijia.

With you now, the slave family will know what to do.

Just look at it, I will definitely hold a grand engagement ceremony for Lin'er."

Women seem to have an addiction to taking care of things. Although Li Lin is not Tokugawa Chiki's biological child, Tokugawa Chiki is very good to Li Lin.

After receiving the errand of organizing the engagement ceremony, Tokugawa Chiki's nose was shining with excitement.

Li Xiao had already finished breakfast in a hurry, and Tokugawa Chiki personally waited on Li Xiao to change clothes.

When I went out, I saw Li Lin and Zhao Liangdong waiting at the door.

"Have you ever seen Huniu?" Li Xiao glanced at Zhao Liangdong, who had obvious dark circles on his face.

You can tell at a glance that I didn't sleep well last night.

"I've gone to see you. Hu Niu came to say hello to you in the morning.

Before you get up, my aunt sent someone to call and asked me to pay you a visit on her behalf."

After Zhao Liangdong finished speaking, he would kneel down and kowtow.

"Oh! Just don't do it. You know, our Li family doesn't like these kinds of gifts.

Have you met your old lady?" Li Xiao glanced at Li Lin.

"I went to see her with my brother-in-law last night, and she was in good health.

I even had two drinks with my old lady!"

"Um!

Your mother-in-law doesn’t have any children either, so you should pay her respects more often on weekdays.
