I'm not a god of wine

Chapter 198 Xu Zheng's

Cooking and eating with the undead divine phoenix, even the gods don't have such a luxury...

Xu Zheng gave him a strange look, and said casually: "Isn't it just a little chicken? There's nothing to make a fuss about."

"Mother, that's not a little chicken..." Xu Le wanted to cry without tears, and said with a wry smile, "That's..."

Halfway through the speech, it stopped abruptly. Xu Le opened his mouth, not knowing how to explain it.

"What is it?" Xu Zheng asked.

"Chirp."

Just when Xu Le didn't know how to explain, a childish Qingming came from outside the door.

Xu Le was taken aback for a moment, then turned his head to look.

I saw Huangfu Yunyan walking in holding Jiujiu in her arms, stroking its head with her fingers from time to time, Jiujiu squinted her eyes, with an expression of enjoyment on her face, her fluffy body arched vigorously towards Huangfu Yunyan's body. It seemed very intimate.

call.

Seeing that Jiujiu was fine, Xu Le breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out that it was just an oolong.

"Mother, don't make such a joke next time, it will scare people to death." Xu Le looked at Xu Zhengshi helplessly.

Xu Zhengshi glared at him, picked up a chopstick and hit his head hard, and said, "Why, in your heart, mother is not as important as this little chicken?"

The corners of Xu Le's mouth twitched twice, and he was speechless for a while.

"Mr. Xu, I'll give you Jiujiu back." Huangfu Yunyan pursed her lips and chuckled, and handed Jiujiu to Xu Le.

"it is good."

Xu Le nodded and reached out to pick it up.

Jiujiu blinked a pair of mung bean-sized eyes, looked at Xu Le, and then, without saying a word, flapped his wings stumblingly, and flew into Huangfu Yunyan's arms.

"..."

Xu Le froze for a moment, his outstretched hand froze in the air, his face covered with black lines.

Huangfu Yunyan's face turned red, she looked at Jiujiu flying towards her in bewilderment, her face was full of embarrassment.

This bird thing, sees the color forgets the righteousness!
Xu Le cursed in his heart, cursed secretly, and put down his hand resentfully.

Obviously, I am its owner, but as a result, when this daring little thing sees Huangfu Yunyan, it rushes into Huangfu Yunyan's arms with all its might...

"Master Xu..." Huangfu Yunyan looked at Xu Le, bit her lip, and asked cautiously, "Can...can you let me take care of Jiujiu for a while?"

Xu Le smiled wryly and nodded, at the same time, he gave a certain bird that valued sex and despised friends fiercely, and then said to Huangfu Yunyan: "Since it likes you so much, then please."

"So, thank you Mr. Xu." Huangfu Yunyan immediately smiled, and gently kissed Jiujiu's little head.

She also loves Jiujiu very much, so she was very happy to hear Xu Le's answer at this moment.

Xu Zhengshi looked at the two, and suddenly said: "Le'er, mother thinks, since Miss Yan'er likes this chick so much, why don't you give it to Miss Yan'er, what do you think?"

"Auntie can't."

Before Xu Le could speak, Huangfu Yunyan shook her head and said: "Jiujiu's master is Mr. Xu, I can't take away people's love, I can be satisfied if I can take care of her for a few days."

Xu Le glanced at Huangfu Yunyan gratefully, and said helplessly: "Mother, it's not that my son is stingy, even if I want to give it away, I can't."

"Oh?" Xu Zheng asked puzzled, "Why? Isn't it just an ordinary chick?"

"My mother doesn't know, Jiujiu is not an ordinary chicken, it is a spirit beast, and now it is my spiritual pet. The spiritual pet has only one owner in its life, so it cannot be given as a gift." Xu Le explained.

He didn't reveal the identity of the Jiujiu Divine Beast, because he was really afraid of scaring his mother, and even if he told her, she might not believe it.

"Spirit beast!" Huangfu Yunyan looked at Jiujiu in her arms in surprise.

In the Great Zhou Dynasty, spirit beasts were extremely rare, and even the most common low-level spirit beast could be sold for a sky-high price of millions of taels.

After monsters are subdued by humans and taken as spiritual pets, they are called spirit beasts.

Huangfu Yunyan really couldn't believe it, this cute little chick that looked ordinary, pink and tender, turned out to be a legendary spirit beast?

Xu Zhengshi was at a loss when she heard that, she was just an ordinary woman who didn't know anything about cultivation.

Seeing this, Huangfu Yunyan pursed her lips and explained to Xu Zhengshi: "Auntie, if this little fellow is really a spirit beast as Mr. Xu said, it is worth at least a million, or even tens of millions taels." silver."

With such an easy-to-understand explanation, Xu Zheng immediately understood it.

She looked at Jiujiu in astonishment, and suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, I didn't really kill Jiujiu to cook, otherwise, I would have lost an astronomical amount of silver, and I don't know how distressed I am, who has always been diligent and thrifty in housekeeping.

"Le'er, where did you get this chick... the spirit beast?" Xu Zheng looked at Xu Le solemnly.

Xu Le smiled and said: "Mother, don't worry, Jiujiu's origin is absolutely innocent, and, as long as the two of you don't tell, who would know that it is a kind of spirit beast?"

"That said...but..." Xu Zheng was still a little worried when he heard this.

Xu Le quickly changed the subject, looked at Huangfu Yunyan and asked, "By the way, is today the exam day?"

Huangfu Yunyan was taken aback, nodded and said: "That's right, today and tomorrow are the martial arts exams, after the martial arts exams, there will be liberal arts and women's exams, and the last three days are the time for the examiners to judge the admissions."

Xu Le nodded and asked, "How long is it until the martial arts exam starts?"

"It's almost an hour before it starts." Huangfu Yunyan said to Xu Le after some calculations.

an hour.

Xu Le breathed a sigh of relief, but luckily he had time.

Thinking of this, he cleaned up the food in the bowl, pulled Huangfu Yunyan away, and at the same time did not forget to turn around and say: "Mother, I'm leaving first, and I'll be back after the exam."

Before Xu Zheng could react, Xu Le had already rushed out of the house.

"This child..." Xu Zheng shook his head, sighed, got up and began to clean up the dishes on the table.

Although she is the wife of a wealthy family, as long as she can do what she can, she always likes to do it herself, and she doesn't want to let the servant girl serve her.

It is precisely because of this that even though they are already one of the most wealthy families in Jialing City, the Xu family's family style is still simple.

Except for Xu Le who spends a lot of time eating out and drinking, there are no other bad rumors...

Halfway through clearing the bowl, Xu Zhengshi's hand trembled suddenly.

"Snapped!"

With a crisp sound, the bowl in her hand fell to the ground and broke in half.

Xu Zhengshi slumped down on the chair, his face was pale, he was covering his heart, and there were big drops of cold sweat on his forehead.

"Old lady!"

A maid walked in, and when she saw this scene, she was frightened out of her wits.

She knelt down, with tears in her eyes, and said helplessly, "Old madam, what's wrong with you? You are...you are..."

The maid came back to her senses and hurriedly got up and said, "I'll call the Second Young Master back right now, just persevere."

She turned around and was about to leave, but at this moment, Xu Zheng grabbed her and said with a weak voice, with a weak smile: "Don't call him, I'm fine... It's an old problem, and it won't be long before it gets better. "

"But..." The servant girl was anxious.

Xu Zhengshi interrupted her, closed his eyes and said softly: "Le'er...he is going to take the martial arts exam, I can't influence him...he will be fine soon, soon."

Not long after, Xu Zheng's complexion gradually returned to ruddy. She opened her eyes and found that seven or eight maids had surrounded her.

"Old lady."

Seeing Xu Zhengshi waking up, the maids looked at her nervously.

"It's all right." Xu Zheng waved his hand and said with a smile: "I've gotten used to the old problems that I fell into when I gave birth to Le'er 20 years ago. Don't worry, you all step back and go about your own business."

Several maids looked at each other in blank dismay, and after saluting to Xu Zhengshi, they retreated one after another.

At the dining table, Xu Zheng took a deep breath, leaned back on the chair, closed her eyes evenly, and fell into a deep sleep...

Xu Le and Huangfu Yunyan walked out of the inner hall, but saw ragged little beggars squatting on the ground in the open space of the outer hall, eating porridge with steamed buns and pickles.

Judging by the number of people, there were no fewer than five or sixty people, almost filling up the entire open space.

In front of these little beggars, some servants and maids of the Xu Mansion were responsible for distributing porridge, steamed buns and other food to them.

Seeing Xu Le and Huangfu Yunyan approaching, the servants and maids of Xu's mansion stepped forward to salute one after another, calling them young master and young lady.

"This is?" Xu Le was taken aback.
