"Third uncle! Third uncle!"

The little girl held Wang Zhong's hand with a bright smile on her face,

Wang Zhong bent down and picked up the little girl. The little girl hugged Wang Zhong's neck, put her hand to cover her mouth, and whispered in Wang Zhong's ear: "Let me tell you, my mother made a lot of delicious food!"

Wang Zhong laughed: "Oh? A lot?"

"There are so many!"

The little girl opened her hands to describe it, her expression and tone were somewhat exaggerated.

Wang Zhong said: "Then let's go back quickly and see what delicious food my sister-in-law has made!"

"Go back! Go back!" the little girl shouted happily.

As soon as Wang Zhong entered the second door with the little girl in his arms, he saw Mrs. Wang Li coming out anxiously. Seeing that Wang Zhong had the same look on his face and a smile on his face, not tired or strange, his expression became a little brighter.

But I still can't help but feel a little worried.

Wang Zhong took the lead in greeting Mrs. Wang Li: "Sister-in-law!"

"Thank you for your hard work, uncle!"

Mrs. Wang Li saluted Wang Chongfu.

"It's just sitting in the tribute courtyard for a few days. It's very hard. But it's my sister-in-law who takes care of the family and outside. It's really hard!"

After getting along with Wang Zhong for a long time, Wang Li knew that Wang Zhong was always polite to her, and she did not argue with Wang Zhong. She immediately changed her voice and asked directly: "Uncle, are you hungry? Should you bathe and change first, or eat first?"

Wang Zhongdao: "Let's take a shower and change clothes first!"

Mrs. Wang Li hurriedly walked forward and stretched out her hand to take Wang Qian'er from Wang Zhong's hand: "Sister Qian, come to mother and let your third uncle bathe and change clothes."

Although Wang Qian'er couldn't bear to leave her third uncle, she also knew that his third uncle had just come back, so she obediently stretched out her arms and let Mrs. Wang Li hug him.

There was hot water boiling on the stove, but Wang Zhong did not let anyone prepare it.

In the past nearly two years, whether it was a hot summer day or a cold day, Wang Zhong always bathed in cold water. Wang Li didn't understand it at first, but as time went by, he gradually got used to it.

Wang Zhong walked to the bathroom, took a bath with cold water as usual, then changed into a loose, wide-sleeved uniform, and then came to the dining hall.

While Wang Zhong was taking a bath, Mrs. Wang Li had already had the prepared meals brought to the dining table one by one. The round Eight Immortals table was filled with

"Third uncle, hurry up, hurry up, if you don't come, I will finish all the delicious food."

Wang Zhong hugged the little girl in his arms: "Fortunately, Third Uncle came quickly, otherwise he would have to pick up the leftovers from my sister Qian's food!"

"I've been suffering in the Gongyuan these days, uncle, eat more!" Wang Li helped Wang Zhong scoop out a bowl of hot soup to relieve the fatigue of many days.

"Thank you sister-in-law!"

"Mom, I want some soup too!" The little girl next to her immediately started shouting when she saw Mrs. Wang Li serving soup to Wang Chong.

"Okay, okay, Mom, let me serve it for you!" Mrs. Wang Li said dotingly. As she spoke, she filled another bowl of meatball soup and placed it in front of the little girl.

"Third uncle, meatball soup!" Wang Qier showed off the meatball soup in front of her to Wang Zhong as if she was offering a treasure.

Wang Zhong rubbed Wang Qian'er's head and said, "Sister Qian, you need to eat more. Eat more so that you can grow up quickly!"

"Uncle San will eat it too!"

"Let's eat together!"

With Wang Qian'er, a living treasure who has a lively atmosphere, the meal is more delicious than before.

The next morning, Wang Zhong was lying on a bamboo deck chair beside the bamboo forest outside the backyard, holding a cattail leaf fan in his hand and a eucalyptus table beside him. He was eating tea leisurely and blowing the autumn wind, feeling very happy.

Not far away, there was smoke rising from the kitchen, and Yu Chu's second daughter-in-law was grilling meat skewers carefully in front of a simple stove made of red bricks.

From time to time, Wang Zhong would open his eyes to take a look, then close them again.

"Salt!"

"cumin!"

"Brush oil!"

"A little bit of pepper powder!"

"Apply more oil!"

"chopped green onion!"

"..."

Wang Qier sat on the small ladle next to her, staring at the barbecue that Yu Chu's second daughter-in-law was churning in her hands, and kept swallowing her saliva.

"Brother Zihou is so elegant!"

While directing Yu Chu's second daughter-in-law to barbecue, a familiar voice suddenly rang.

Perhaps he has just entered the period of voice change, and his voice is a bit different than before, a little more hoarse and harsh.

Wang Zhong stood up. When he saw the person coming, he smiled and cupped his hands and said, "Who am I? It turns out that I am the virtuous brother Zecheng. The official came to the humble house. It is really a brilliance, a brilliance!"

After getting along with Wang Zhong for a long time, Chang Bai gradually gained a better understanding of Wang Zhong's temperament. He knew that Wang Zhong loved to joke and was not as rigid and pedantic as those old masters.

"It smells so good!" Changbai's servant was very attentive and helped Changbai prepare a small dish for him, and asked Changbai to sit down next to Wang Zhong.

Wang Zhong waved to the little girl: "Sister Qian, come here quickly!"

Wang Qian'er ran up to Wang Zhong in a hurry, her big black and white eyes full of curiosity, and she was looking at Changbai non-stop.

From ancient times to the present, people have always been happy with beautiful things.

Men like beautiful women. Although they all have their own preferences for vegetables and radishes, all beauties have their own characteristics.

And women naturally like good-looking men, who are like jade trees facing the wind, who are suave, with faces like crown jewels, high-spirited, and extraordinary in manners...

And Changbai is the best among them! He has inherited Sheng Hong's good looks and intelligence, and the calmness and sophistication of his maternal grandfather, Mrs. Wang. Although he is still young, his appearance is already very good.

If we only talk about appearance, Wang Zhong is really not as handsome as Chang Bai.

"This is your uncle Changbai, third uncle's best friend!"

"Wang Qian'er, pay your respects to your uncle and say hello to him!"

Wang Qian'er immediately broke away from Wang Zhong's hands, followed what her mother, Wang Li, taught her in the past, and bowed to Changbai to greet her.

Changbai was stunned, not because of Wang Qier's salute, but because he was not used to the sudden change in his identity.

He is a junior at home, and his oldest cousin has not yet gotten married, but now he has become what others call his uncle.

Although it was unexpected, Chang Bai was obviously very happy. When he took off the jade pendant from his waist and handed it to Sister Qian's little hand, he said, "I often hear Zihou mention my niece at home and praise her a lot. When I saw her today, she is really smart."

It’s so cute. When we first meet, this jade pendant should be regarded as a meeting gift from my uncle to my niece!”

Naturally, he said this to Wang Zhong because he was afraid of Wang Zhong's rejection.

What a pity! Chang Bai underestimated Wang Zhong's shamelessness.

Without Wang Zhong's reminder, the little girl was all smiles, holding the jade pendant in her hand, and said with joy, "Qian'er, thank you uncle!"

"So good!" Chang Bai raised his hand and rubbed Wang Qier's little head, with a bright smile on his face.

"Sir, the meat is ready!" Yu Chu's second daughter-in-law came over respectfully, carrying a plate of golden and oily barbecue skewered on bamboo skewers.

"Well, go and prepare some juice. I want to have a few drinks with Zicheng."

"Slave, go now!"

Yu Chu's second daughter-in-law is now arranged by Mrs. Wang Li to serve as the leading nanny next to Wang Qian'er, responsible for taking care of the two little envoys in Wang Qian'er's room.

On the eucalyptus board next to it, there are already prepared thin pancakes, shredded cucumbers, prepared sauces, etc.

Wang Zhong spread out the pancakes in his palm, grabbed a few meat skewers and placed them on them. He grabbed the pancakes and clasped the hot mutton on the bamboo skewers. He pulled out the bamboo skewers with a strong pull with his other hand.

After it came out, he immediately put the cut vegetables on top, poured some sauce on it, rolled it up and handed it to Changbai.

"The sheep that were just slaughtered this morning, please try and taste them!"

The little girl next to her couldn't wait any longer and urged Wang Zhong to roll one for her.

If you just eat meat skewers, it tastes good, but if you eat too much, you will inevitably feel tired. After all, there are too many seasonings on the meat skewers, but if you add a pizza and some vegetarian dishes, the taste will be completely different.

As soon as he took a bite, Changbai gave him a thumbs up!

Although there is no shortage of delicacies in the Sheng family, and there is no shortage of cooks with superb cooking skills, such simple and crude ways of eating are rare.

Moreover, the method of eating meat skewers wrapped in pancakes was also more popular in the north in later generations. Changbai's ancestral home is Youyang. In recent years, he followed Sheng Hong to serve as an official abroad, mostly in places south of the Yangtze River, and less in the north.

Moreover, both Sheng Hong and Wang are from the south, so their diet naturally favors the south.

Changbai always followed rules and had a fixed time for eating. This was the first time he was so casual. Moreover, Yu Chu's second daughter-in-law was really good at cooking. This meal lasted more than half an hour.

Wang Zhong also went to the battle in person, taking Chang Bai to barbecue together, teaching all the key tips one by one, while he made Wang Qian'er's belly round and bulging by having fun with him.

In the past, Changbai was busy studying at home and never left the door. Now that he suddenly came to visit, Wang Zhong was really surprised.

After eating barbecue, it was past noon. Wang Zhong led Chang Bai around the small bamboo village. Today's small bamboo village is no longer the small village with only more than 60 acres of land in the past.

With years of development, the scale of Xiaozhuzhuang has become larger and larger. Let alone the breeding farm, just the fields have increased four to five times on the original basis.

Some of them are newly reclaimed wasteland, while others were bought from small landowners from all over the country.
