Chapter 8 Cheng Xudong
Not long after Dong Ruo just left home, Cheng Xi hurried to Dong Ming's study, stood respectfully opposite Dong Ming, and saluted, "General, are you looking for me?"
"Lao Cheng, how many times have you said that you don't have to talk about so many rules when there are no outsiders. We have been friends for many years, and we are not in the army now." Dong Ming sighed, got up from the chair and walked to Cheng Xi's side, patted Cheng Xi on the shoulder and said.
"Yes, General!" Cheng Xi answered, but although he agreed, Cheng Xi's body was not relaxed at all, and his thin body still stood straight.
Although he didn't continue to say it, Dong Ming looked at Cheng Xi with a little more praise. After gently patted Cheng Xi on the shoulder, Dong Ming returned to his seat and sat down. "I saw the young man named Duan Peng last night. Although he was not as outstanding as Xiao Ruo said, he was indeed a rare genius."
Cheng Xi listened quietly to Dong Ming's words, but from time to time he nodded gently to agree with Dong Ming's words without interrupting.
Dong Ming did not ask Cheng Xi what he meant. He picked up the teacup at hand and took a mouthful of his saliva and continued, "You will arrange that Duan Peng to enter the study from tomorrow. It's not our habit to waste genius."
"Yes, General!" Cheng Xi answered respectfully, but his body did not move. In the evening, he will not call him here until the young lady goes out. He believes that Dong Ming will never tell him these trivial things, and there must be anything more important later.
Sure enough, he didn't wait for too long. Dong Ming continued to say, "Xiao Ruo always likes to go out to play, and I don't know how much homework has been pulled down recently. You can also help me urge her when you are free recently. After all, you are also an uncle who watched her grow up."
"I will, General! But the young lady is very smart. As long as she spends little effort, she is much better than the other children in the village!" Hearing Dong Ming mention Dong Ruo, although he watched Dong Ruo grow up, Cheng Xi was still very cautious when speaking.
As for Cheng Xi's evaluation of Dong Ruo, Dong Ming just nodded without saying anything and did not continue. Soon Dong Ming changed the topic and asked, "How is Xudong's child recently?" I haven't seen him for a long time!"
Cheng Xudong is Cheng Xi's son. Suddenly, he heard Dong Ming ask about his son's situation. Cheng Xi, who was standing straight, suddenly became more tense. After a while, Cheng Xi opened his mouth and said cautiously, "Xudong has come back relatively late recently, and I haven't asked him for a while!"
Seeing that Cheng Xi seemed to be a little nervous, Dong Ming smiled and pressed his hand and said, "Lao Cheng, why are you nervous? Xudong, the child, also watched him grow up, just like half my son. If you have time to talk to him, you can't just focus on training. You should also take some time to come out and take more care of Xiaoruo.
Hearing Dong Ming's words, Cheng Xi's heart suddenly jumped wildly and almost suspected that there was something wrong with his ears. His eyebrows trembled quickly twice, but soon calmed down, "Yes, General! I will tell Xudong when I go back.
"Okay! You go back first!" Dong Ming waved his hand to signal that the conversation was over, but just as Cheng Xi was about to walk out of the door, Dong Ming said again, "by the way, Lao Cheng, you can also tell Xudong when you go back and ask him to help restrain the children in the village and don't bully the new partners. When I went to see Duan Peng last night, I found a very interesting thing. Duan Peng actually had a brother who was a prospective martial arts master, and the village also added a lot of strength!"
Dong Ming's last sentence was very light, but it was like a shocking Thunderbolt in Cheng Xi's ears, and the steps under his feet were also slightly stopped. However, soon Cheng Xi adjusted over and followed his footsteps. Cheng Xi turned around and saluted Dong Ming: "Yes, general General, please rest assured that I will convey the general's meaning to Xudong when I go back. I believe Xudong will also do his best.
Dong Ming nodded with a smile and said, "You should also go back to rest early!" We are no longer young. Children will be worried if we go back late!"
Walking out of the room and closing them, Cheng Xi immediately stretched out his hand on the wall beside him, and his chest was also slightly undulating. He was stunned for a while. Cheng Xi pinched his thigh with the other hand. The pain from his thigh made Cheng Xi frown involute involute. It was not a dream, but true.
shook his head twice, looked at the door beside him, and took a deep breath. Cheng Xi raised his steps and walked quickly in the direction of his home. This is not the place to think about the problem.
............
After dinner, Duan Peng originally wanted to send Dong Ruo, but Zhong Xi kept him and arranged Zhong Li to complete the escort task.
After everyone left, Duan Peng sat down in front of Zhong Xi. He knew that Zhong Xi must have something to say to him.
Sure enough, as soon as he sat down, Zhong Xi asked, "Xiao Peng, did you get anything from going out all day today?"
Hearing Zhong Xi's question, Duan Peng's eyebrows suddenly raised. He said excitedly, "Brother Xi, it's really amazing. There is indeed a mecha repair shop in the village. My father's previous suit is simply incomparable with here."
"Real?" Zhong Xi raised his eyebrows, not disbelief, but Duan Peng was still young and not too rich in knowledge.
"Hmm." Duan Peng nodded hurriedly and said, "Today, I stayed in their mecha repair shop for a day and saw their whole repair process. Not only are the repair tools comprehensive, but they can also produce some simple mecha parts. Although these mecha parts are not enough to assemble a complete mecha, they are absolutely Most mecha failures are completely no problem.
Hearing Duan Peng's explanation, Zhong Xi couldn't sit still any longer. Although Duan Peng's knowledge is not rich enough, he can also assemble three mecha that can run and jump from Duan Peng with a pile of garbage, so Zhong Xi is still more convinced of Duan Peng's judgment on mecha. At first, just because there were more mecha in the village, he felt that the village must have a relatively large mecha maintenance center and wanted Duan Peng to carry out a more systematic study here, but now he had to re-evaluate the village.
"Xiaopeng, according to your judgment, how many mechas should there be in this village?"
Duan Peng frowned and thought for a while before saying, "Yesterday we saw ten when we entered the village. Today, I saw three more mechas being maintained in the repair shop, and these three are different from the ten that appeared yesterday, and Xiaoruo also stopped in our yard and just appeared. There are already 14 in front of me, but I'm not sure if there are any other mecha in the village.
After listening to Duan Peng's analysis, Zhong Xi was silent. Originally, he just wanted Duan Peng to systematically learn the knowledge of mecha here and leave, but now he has to consider whether it is a wise choice if he wants to leave in the future. In addition, when Dong Ming came here last night, although he did not show any kindness, the meaning of solicitation had been expressed very clearly. Zhong Xi also had to consider whether Dong Ming would let them go so easily when Duan Peng learned enough knowledge.
"Brother Xi, is there something?" Seeing that Zhong Xi fell into meditation and hesitated for a while, Duan Peng asked carefully.
Looking at Duan Peng, Zhong Xi sighed in his heart. Now they are still too weak to go or stay. Although they are not too comfortable, Zhong Xi's face did not express it. He smiled at Duan Peng and said, "It's okay, Xiaopeng! How are the people in the repair shop? Can they learn something by following them?
Duan Peng stared into Zhong Xi's eyes, as if he wanted to see if there was something hidden in Zhong Xi's eyes. However, Zhong Xi was still old and spicy. After looking at it for a long time, Duan Peng could not see anything wrong with Zhong Xi. "The uncles in the village are very good. When they repaired, they let me watch by. I have already today. Have you learned a lot?" Speaking of mecha, Duan Peng's tone was involuntarily excited and tightened his fist. Duan Peng continued to say, "After a few more days of learning from them, I will also sort out our mecha well."
Zhong Xi stretched out his hand and gently rubbed his head and said, "That's good!" But don't relax on other things. After a break, you can read a book for a while!"
"Hmm!" Duan Peng nodded heavily, stretched out his hand and clasped it into a fist in front of his chest, and said solemnly as if taking an oath, "Brother Xi, don't worry, I will definitely not relax until I save my parents again!" After saying that, Duan Peng ran to his room.
Looking at Duan Peng's back, deep worry emerged from Zhong Xi's face again.
............
Back to his yard, Cheng Xi's footsteps did not stop until he entered the house and closed the door. Cheng Xi closed his eyes, gently leaned against the door, and began to recall what Dong Ming had said to him at night.
"Dad! What's wrong with you? Are you not feeling well?" A young man with a beautiful face came out of the room, quickly walked to Cheng Xi's side and picked up Cheng Xi's body.
"I'm fine!" Cheng Xi pushed away Cheng Xudong's help and said, "Why are you at home at this time? How are you practicing today?"
"What else can I do? Almost no one of my age is my opponent, and I want to go out to fight, but I won't let it." Cheng Xudong's interest was not too high. Looking at his father beside him, Cheng Xudong asked carefully, "Dad, what's going on with those people brought back by Xiao Ruo? Did Uncle Dong say when to let them go?
I'm afraid that there are few people in the whole village who don't know about Cheng Xudong's feelings for Dong Ruo. As Cheng Xudong's father, Cheng Xi's son's thoughts are even clearer, but Cheng Xi has not expressed support for Cheng Xudong in this regard before, but today Dong Ming sent a message, which is different. Cheng Xi pointed to his son and scolded with a smile, "You boy, before Dad came to the second sentence, his mind turned to Xiao Ruo. Don't worry! The general said, from tomorrow, you will be responsible for Xiaoruo's training!"
