Chapter 305 Provocation
Xia Chuxiao and the other person sat down. At this moment, she finally saw someone who looked like her. Xia Chuxiao took a few glances, her face calm and steady, without any surprise.
On the contrary, when Xia Yawen saw her, she was so excited that she almost shouted out. Ouyang Yu held her hand to calm her down.
Xia Yawen slowly calmed down and paid attention to the person in front.
It seems that she knows something. The way she looked at me just now was as if she saw someone she hadn't seen for a long time.
They do look alike, but her face is noticeably rounder.
Xia Chuxiao thought lightly in her heart.
Several people sitting in the seats also noticed something, but didn't say much.
Before the meal, Xia Chuxiao said a few words, and Ouyang Li and others had a new understanding of her courage, magnanimity and heroism.
But there are always a few provocative and sarcastic ones.
A pair of sinister eyes swept over intentionally or unintentionally. The man looked sinister and cunning. He said with a fake smile. "The Xia team is indeed young and promising! It's our blessing to be invited by you!"
"That's right, no wonder even the Gong family dotes on me so much!"
"However, Captain Xia, your vegetables are very good. They are much better than those grown in our base."
“…”
Xia Chuxiao sneered without saying anything. These people were praising them on the surface, but in fact they were trying to sow discord between them.
The other people also understood what they meant, and Bai Zimu and the others immediately became hostile to him.
Several people thought at the same time, how dare they say that to their sister-in-law, how despicable!
Bai Zimu and Feng Pan really wanted to scold these people, but were stopped by Bai Ziyue. They would not tolerate these old guys just because they were from the upper class.
Gong Yuhan's face had already turned dark, and Ouyang Yu and the others' faces were not very good either. The atmosphere in the hall was stiff and depressing.
Finally, Gong Hao and Liu Fang said, "Xia girl is already a member of our Gong family!"
"I'm old now, it's time to enjoy my life! It's good to have them take care of me!"
Ouyang Li agreed, "That's right, I should learn from you, Xiaohao! It's time for Hua'er to take over!"
When they heard his words, they were surprised, then angry. At this time, one of them said sarcastically, "Old Master, you are right, but after all, it is a matter of generation. The younger generation should abide by their duties, otherwise where will the face of us older generations be?"
"Team Xia, the vegetables you've produced are quite good. Why don't you consider joining the base to cultivate the garden? We all happen to be acquaintances now."
After hearing this, several people became angry and felt extremely disgusted with this man. He was so despicable and shameless that Feng Pan spat the soup in his mouth back into the bowl, almost choking him to death with anger.
"It's time to stop," Ouyang Yu said in a warning tone.
Those people acted as if they hadn't heard anything and continued, "Women should follow the rules of being a good wife and cook at home. My wife is the one who does that."
Bai Ziyue shook his head, thinking to himself, "I don't know where these people get their confidence from. The Second Master is right in front of them, and they're still so fearless!"
A loud "bang" sound was heard.
The people in the hall were stunned, and there was a moment of silence. A few people looked at the bowl lying on the ground and shrank back. Bai Zimu whispered, "My sister-in-law is mad!"
Those people were also startled. One of them touched his face. The thing just flew past his face too fast, too fast. Several people were still scared.
Xia Chuxiao felt the gazes falling on her, raised her eyes and explained calmly, "It's the night of the celebration, and it's family custom to set off firecrackers. Unfortunately, we don't have any firecrackers, so we can use something else instead!"
Xia Chuxiao spoke sternly and quickly, not giving them any chance to get angry. Her dark, cold eyes swept over them and she continued, "I haven't practiced for a few days, and my hands are shaking. I wonder if I've scratched this gentleman."
Hearing this, several provocative people wanted to get angry, but they had no reason to be angry with her, so they could only endure it, "No, no!"
Ouyang Hua smiled and said, "Cousin, your skills are too good. How long have you been learning?"
Xia Chuxiao smiled faintly, "Usually, I only studied for half a month!"
When those people heard this, they were shocked.
Gong Yuhan's eyes sparkled slightly, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, "My Xiaoxiao is just too low-key, she can do everything!"
Xia Chuxiao, "You're making fun of me again!"
Gong Yuhan responded, "I'm not kidding. The last time I tried to kill that mutant python, you subdued it with just one move!"
The two sang together.
Captain Wu said friendly, "Team Xia's women are truly as capable as their men! That python last time must have been at least 20 to 30 meters long. If it hadn't been, we would have been swallowed by it!"
Xia Chuxiao smiled faintly, "By the way, Captain Wu, has your powerful man found out what he does?"
Captain Wu raised his eyebrows and said, "Team Xia, this isn't my guy. He's the one assigned to us by Elder Chao!"
Xia Chuxiao curled her lips and smiled evilly, "Oh!"
"I remember that person's ability to transform into the abilities of other people with special abilities. I don't know what potion he drank. This person of yours is really amazing, Mr. Chao!"
When Mr. Chao's name was called, his expression changed slightly. He said with a smile, "You're kidding. How would an old man like me know?"
Xia Chuxiao glanced over and keenly sensed something. She retracted her gaze and said to everyone, "Everyone, eat more. This yellow eel meat is very nutritious!"
Bai Zimu and the others were stunned and puzzled. They thought that the sister-in-law was going to drive them away or teach them a lesson.
Gong Yuhan picked up some meat for someone and asked Xia Chuxiao to eat it. Xia Chuxiao didn't want to invite these people here, but just came to test them out.
As expected, it was discovered that there was something fishy about this man named Chao Lao, and the disappearance case was probably related to him.
After the meal, no one talked much. Only close friends stayed to chat while Aunt Gong and several aunts cleaned up the dishes.
Several masters were chatting, and it was not until she and Xiao Hanhan were called over that she realized they were talking about the potion.
Ouyang Li said in an old voice, "That potion is not something that our base can research. Have you seen it before?"
Xia Chuxiao and Gong Yuhan replied, "Chief, I think we should put the potion aside for now, because the person who used it may have accomplices, and it is obviously difficult to develop this potion."
"Let's plan the next step first. Don't let the potion issue get in the way. I remember the vaccine to prevent zombie transformation has already had its first successful attempt. We can research it first!"
"I agree with Xiaoxiao. We should use the time when there are no zombies to research and develop the vaccine."
Ouyang Li and the others pondered for a moment, and Ouyang Li said solemnly, "Okay!"
They chatted for a while and then went back.
She and Xiao Hanhan had also thought about the same questions they had thought about. The potion was so magical, and there probably weren't many of them. Otherwise, if they used the potion to train soldiers, those people would have been in great trouble long ago.
As soon as Xia Chuxiao returned to the room, she heard the little snake's anxious voice.
"Master, it's bad, a monster has grown in the space!"
Xia Chuxiao was stunned when she heard it, "Monster?"
"Yes, master, please come to the space quickly," said the little snake.
Xia Chuxiao narrowed her eyes. Gong Yuhan behind her sensed her emotional fluctuations and asked, "What's wrong?"
