Chapter 357 Barbecue in the Garden
However, this toy rifle is for children to play with, not the larger rifles that adults play with.
"I understand, big brother."
Nian Nian put down the spear and said, "I don't like this weapon. It's too hard and hard to hold."
"Sister, here is a whip. Would you like to use it as a weapon?"
Chen Yang handed the whip he took out of the box to Nian Nian as if he was presenting a treasure.
Nian Nian took it in her hand and smiled at Chen Yang, "Thank you, brother Yang, I like it very much, so I will accept it."
Chen Yang scratched his head and said with a smile: "This is given by my aunt, not mine. If you want to thank me, it should be my aunt, not me."
Chen Yang chose and chose, but he didn't expect that the seemingly weak little boy would choose a heavy weapon, a hammer.
These weapons are big and small, and the small ones are more like toys that Maidong brought for the children to play with.
There are also large ones, several boxes of weapons.
Lu Yu told Chen Jingyan about these weapons because he wanted him to take a look. These weapons were found in a small country outside. He didn't care about them at first, but Mai Dong saw them and bought them. Because many of these weapons had been stored for too long, they looked a bit dull, and the price was negotiable.
After leaving that small country, Mai Dong told Lu Yu that she wanted to buy these weapons as gifts for her brother.
The reason they have achieved this level of business is because they rely on the Marquis' Mansion. No one from outside is investigating, and things go smoothly. But they can't really just not want to pay anything.
In addition to the taxes he had to pay, Maidong also wanted to take some money from his profits to supply the military camp.
Take from the people and use it for the military.
After Maidong came back, he stayed in the Marquis' Mansion. Lu Yu did not stay in the Mansion because he had other business matters to deal with.
Everyone in the Marquis' Mansion is her family. Mai Dong feels more comfortable living here than staying in the Zhao family, so naturally there is nothing to worry about.
Lu Yu left in the middle of the afternoon.
Maidong's room was cleaned up by Yunqiao in advance, and it was the yard where she lived before.
The independent courtyard faces south and has excellent sunlight. Maidong doesn't like to be served by many people, so he is only accompanied by two maids who know some martial arts. These two maids were bought by Chen Jingyan and specially trained for half a year. After learning martial arts, they went to the Zhao family with Maidong as dowry maids.
Maidong took a nap in the morning, and when he woke up, Lu Yu had already left.
"Madam, are you awake? The master left in the afternoon. Before he left, he told me to take good care of you."
"Just now, Sister Dingxiang from the Marquis's courtyard came and saw that you were still asleep, so she left again. She told me to tell the servants that you were awake and to inform the front courtyard so that they could bring you some food."
Maidong listened to the maid's words and nodded.
"Did the master say he was busy with something?"
"He said he wanted to pack the weapons he brought from outside and ship them away, thinking he would send them to Mobei." The maid Qiuyue said as she put an outer coat on Maidong. At this hour, the weather was a bit cold, so he needed to put on more clothes.
"Yeah, I understand."
Seeing that he was neatly dressed, Maidong stood up, rinsed his mouth, and then said, "Let's go to the front yard."
When she arrived, she saw smoke rising from the garden in the front yard.
"Is there a fire?" There was a strong smell of smoke.
Maidong couldn't help but quicken his pace.
The maid Qiuxi immediately came forward and supported her arm, "Madam, please go slowly. You are still pregnant."
Before I got there, I heard the noises of children laughing.
"My grilled chicken wings will be ready soon. I'm also going to grill two chicken legs and give them to my aunt later."
"My baked potato chips are ready. I'm going to give them to Mom. She just wanted to eat my barbecue."
"Brother, go slower, I can't bake it well..."
When Chen Yang was grilling, his little face was covered in black dust, and he looked like a little clay doll.
Yun Qiao was preparing barbecue skewers with her maid. She also started to prepare when she heard Dingxiang shout, "The girl is here."
Yun Qiao looked up and said with a smile, "Mai Dong is here, but he slept well. I was thinking that you shouldn't sleep too much, otherwise you will suffer from insomnia at night."
Maidong yawned and walked towards Yunqiao.
"Ever since I got pregnant, I've been either sleeping or on my way to sleep, and I've done less."
"Sister-in-law, you guys were making a barbecue. I thought there was a fire. I was so worried. You guys were having so much fun."
She could see clearly that there were several little ones barbecuing, each with a small stove, and the children were having a great time.
Yun Qiao: "I was thinking about what to eat for dinner, and suddenly a few of the kids said, 'Auntie hasn't had barbecue yet, so why not have barbecue?'"
Yunqiao has taken her children to eat here several times. The little ones like it very much, and they also like this original barbecue method. Moreover, they make it themselves, and the food they eat after grilling is also very delicious.
Even Chen Yang, who was a little picky about food, was cured by his own food.
No matter how bad it tastes, as long as I baked it myself, I will eat it all.
Yun Qiao asked Mai Dong to sit down and wait for the children to roast the meat and bring it to her as a tribute.
But Maidong didn't want to.
She also wants to barbecue.
The two maids tried to persuade her but it was useless.
Yun Qiao had no choice but to give her a small stove and said, "You better take it easy. You're still pregnant."
"Don't worry, sister-in-law, everything will be fine." Maidong found a small stool to sit on and asked the maid to bring her meat. Another maid prepared charcoal and seasonings for barbecue.
In fact, she just needed to do some work, and the maid had already prepared the rest.
"Qiuyue, Qiuxi, take good care of your wife."
"Sister-in-law, I'm fine. If a child can do it, I, an adult, can do it too."
It's no wonder Yun Qiao was worried. This was in ancient times, and giving birth was like walking through the gates of hell for women. Even in modern times with such advanced medical care, many people died from childbirth, let alone in ancient times.
In ancient times, giving birth to a child depended entirely on strength and luck.
Seeing that she liked it, Yunqiao went along with her to play.
When Chen Jingyan came, he was holding Nian Nian's hand in one hand and holding a basket of fruit in the other.
"Daddy, don't tell Mommy, okay?"
Chen Jingyan lowered his eyes and looked at Nian Nian, "Your mother is very smart. Even if we don't tell her, she will know."
Yun Qiao looked up and saw the father and son.
Nian Nian also went for a nap just now. Yun Qiao was reluctant to wake the child. Seeing the father and son coming together, Yun Qiao immediately washed her hands, stood up and walked towards Nian Nian.
He reached out and touched her forehead first.
"You don't look well? Is there something wrong?"
