Xiao Ruxun laughed and said, "Big brother, just wait. When we really start eating later, this soup and these dishes might not be enough. During the war, I would often ask the cooks' army to cook a jar of rice, then roast meat and cook meat soup to go with the rice. Five or six people would be able to sweep everything clean and say that my cooking is delicious, but the cooks' army cooks' are all pig's food. I also don't know whether to laugh or cry."
"You are a dignified marquis and a commanding general. It is beneath your dignity and dignity to cook personally."
Xiao Rulan comforted him with good intentions.
"Cooking for my comrades and family, that is the feeling of comradeship and kinship. Who can say anything when I cook for my comrades and family? I don't believe it! Come, big brother, bring those two chickens over. Just now I asked the chef to kill them and stew a pot of chicken soup for Caiyun and sisters-in-law. Speaking of which, big brother, you got married six years earlier than me. Why don't you have children? Is it because you are too busy with military affairs? "
Xiao Ruxun had a sneaky smile on his face. Xiao Rulan suddenly recalled some interesting things when she was young. She slapped Xiao Ruxun's head and pretended to be angry, "Brat, you have grown up and your wings have hardened, haven't you? When you were young, father was too busy. Even washing clothes for you was done by me, your big brother! Now you dare to overturn the heavens? "
Xiao Ruxun hurriedly put on a frightened look, "Don't, don't, don't, big brother, don't hit me. People say that an elder brother is like a father. I will remember it in my heart!"
"That's more like it!"
Xiao Rulan was very happy in her heart. She got up and went to prepare the chicken. Xiao Ruxun prepared some spices and salt, and set up a large chopping board. When Xiao Rulan brought the chicken over, Xiao Ruxun took the kitchen knife and cut the chicken into pieces of different sizes. Her knife technique was a little rough, but it was obvious that she had practiced and was not a newbie. In just a few moves, the two whole chickens were cut into a chicken platter.
On the other side, several sisters-in-law surrounded Yang Caiyun and looked at Xiao Ruxun's sharp skills. They were a little surprised and asked Xiao Ruxun if he cooked at home and why he was so skilled.
"I didn't cook before, but after I came back, I made some porridge and side dishes. I said that I learned it from an old cook in the army when I was idle on the battlefield in Korea. He said that I should cook for my family."
Her words carried some childish teasing, but the strong feeling of happiness lingered no matter what. Being able to let her husband, a marquis, cook personally, Yang Caiyun herself felt boundless happiness, not to mention her sisters-in-law. They looked at Xiao Ruxun's skillful technique, then looked at Yang Caiyun's protruding belly, and then looked at their own deflated bellies. Especially the eldest daughter-in-law, Madam Li, suddenly felt a lot of pressure.
"No, I can't go on like this. Otherwise, if I don't have children for a long time, I have no reason to stop my husband from taking concubines into the family, and I have to swallow the bitter fruit with a smile. In this day and age, having children and continuing the family line is more important than anything else."
The bodyguards brought the chopped firewood and washed rice. This rice was not wheat from the Northern Real Estate, but rice produced in the south of the Yangtze River. Xiao Ruzhi brought it from the south. She said that this white rice could be used to make porridge to nourish people, and it could be used to nourish the body of the fourth sister-in-law. As a result, when they came here, they were delayed because of this white rice. Now it was just the right time to use it.
After setting up the stove and lighting the fire, they set up the pot and began to cook the rice. After that, Xiao Ruxun threw the chopped and washed chicken into a pot of water to boil. He added all kinds of spices and some nourishing things such as wolfberries and let it simmer slowly. At the same time, he chatted with Xiao Rulan from time to time. At the same time, he processed some of the beef and mutton obtained through special channels to barbecue, while waiting for Xiao Wenkui to come back with the game.
Around noon, Xiao Wenkui, Xiao Ruzhi, and Xiao Ruhui came back with the team. They carried all kinds of game of different sizes. At first glance, it was obvious that they came back with a full load. What was different from when they left was that Ma Gui, Ma Hu, and a group of Ma family's boys also came back with them. This made Xiao Ruxun a little surprised.
"Admiral!"
The group of generals of the Ma Clan threw down their prey and rushed over to greet Xiao Ruxun. They even used the address they used in the Korean battlefield. Although Xiao Ruxun was also a commander now, she didn't have control over the Ma Clan army that had returned to the Great Xuan Military Region. Their actions could only be said that they were sincerely convinced by Xiao Ruxun and admired her to a certain extent.
Especially Ma Gui. In the Ningxia battlefield, he called Xiao Ruxun brother, but it changed in the Korean battlefield. Even now, they still called each other brothers in private. However, on the surface, Ma Gui admired Xiao Ruxun very much. He called him admiral more than anyone else, which made Xiao Ruxun feel a little embarrassed.
"Don't be like this, don't be like this. Brothers, it's true that we fought together, but now that the war is over, I'm not in charge of you anymore. Plus, we're all on vacation now, so we're just ordinary friends. There's no relationship between superior and subordinate. And you, brother Ma, how old are you? Don't you feel ashamed calling me admiral? I used to call you brother back then!"
Ma Gui laughed heartily, not minding the difference between them. He only resumed addressing Xiao Ruxun as' brother ', calling her' little brother ', indescribably intimate.
The Xiao brothers looked at the scene in front of them and were a little surprised. They were surprised that what Ma Gui said just now was true.
When they were hunting, they met Xiao Ruzhi and Ma Hu fighting over a plump hare. The two of them were fighting endlessly, and when they introduced each other's names, Ma Hu was stunned, because this name was too similar to Xiao Ruxun's. After asking, he found out that Ma Hu was Xiao Ruxun's elder brother, and the old man behind him was Xiao Ruxun's father. Immediately, he was frightened and quickly apologized. Ma Gui followed closely behind to apologize, and then proposed to meet Inspector Xiao together.
This was very unusual.
After the death of Qi Jiguang, before the appearance of Xiao Ruxun, the most famous twin stars in the military of Daming were Li Chengliang and Li Rusong, and Ma was Ma Gui.
The illustrious prestige of the Ma Family Army in Xuan Da had also spread throughout the military circles of the Great Ming Dynasty, and was rather famous. But now that Xiao Ruxun had appeared out of nowhere, this prestige actually made the unruly Ma Family brat so obedient and obedient. Not only did they offer the hare with both hands, they even gifted some other prey, and even wanted to come along to apologize to Xiao Ruxun. This was enough to show what kind of position Xiao Ruxun held in their hearts.
The prestige of the battle had reached such a level. Even the experienced Xiao Wenkui couldn't help but be secretly shocked.
His youngest son was very good at winning people's hearts. During the battle, he could win the morale of the army, and after the battle, he could still be so powerful. He could make the little tigers of the Ma Family surrender willingly. It had to be said that his youngest son would definitely be a military god in the future.
However, such a character was enough to bring honor to his ancestors and make the military group excited. But it might not be accepted by the civil officials. They had worked so hard to get the power. If it was threatened by the strong rise of Xiao Ruxun, it was hard to guarantee that they wouldn't do some private things to Xiao Ruxun.
