Chapter 36: Zhu Bajie Giving Birth to Chang’e

The old steward had no choice but to continue busy skinning and gutting. Not long after, Old Xie came over carrying a big pot and some seasonings. The old steward originally wanted to help, but he was directed by Old Xie to start a fire on the side, saying he didn’t trust Chris Chen’s skills. Chris Chen couldn’t win against Old Xie, so he had to do as he was told.

Then, Old Xie began to skillfully put the dog meat into the pot and started making dog meat soup. Old Xie held a kitchen knife and cut swiftly, quickly cutting the dog meat into several large pieces. Then he salted it to remove the earthy smell, took it out, cut it into small pieces, and washed it thoroughly with clean water. Next was putting it into the pot. First, he stir-fried it with a little cooking oil and vinegar. After the water dried up, he added water and a small amount of vinegar in proportion, heated it to a boil, and removed the floating foam from the soup surface.

After finishing these steps, he added various seasonings and water, boiled for about half an hour, and then changed to low heat to simmer. When it came time to simmer over low heat, Old Xie let out a long breath and smiled at Chris Chen, “This simmering needs at least two hours until the dog meat is soft enough to melt in the mouth. By then, you will know what ‘dog meat rolling three times, even the gods can’t stand steady’ means, haha!”

“Oh, Young Master, may I ask what is a god?” Chris Chen asked, not quite understanding.

“Huh?” Old Xie reacted only then. It turned out there were no gods on this Continent. However, he didn’t care about this at all. He just pretended and said, “You remember, I am a god. Do you understand?”

“Understood, understood!” Chris Chen hurriedly nodded, “So god is your title!”

“Haha!” Old Xie was amused by him. However, he didn’t bother to correct him, just smiled and said, “Just think so. Alright, I’m tired. I’m going to sleep first. You watch here. Remember to call me when the dog meat is soft!”

“Yes, Young Master, don’t worry. I’ll watch here!” Chris Chen hurriedly said.

“En!” Old Xie nodded reassuringly and slipped into the villa to sleep.

It had to be said that the Duke’s Mansion arranged a very comfortable place for the little young master. The big bed was soft and comfortable. Old Xie almost fell asleep as soon as he lay down.

He slept for about two hours. The reason he woke up was entirely because he was startled by a strong fragrance. Tempted by this fragrance, Old Xie almost jumped down from the bedroom on the second floor with his eyes closed, then dashed to the big pot in a few steps, looking intoxicated.

Chris Chen was startled by Old Xie’s amazing move, thinking that Old Xie would surely break a leg. It wasn’t until he found that Old Xie was fine that he felt relieved. But his heart was still beating fast. He couldn’t help complaining to Old Xie, “Young Master, with such a high building, please don’t jump. I was almost scared to death!”

“Hehe!” Old Xie opened his eyes and said with a smile, “Don’t worry. Not to mention this height, even if it were ten times higher, it would be fine!”

“But this is not in accordance with Noble etiquette!” The old steward Chris Chen was about to launch into a long lecture.

Old Xie had been with him these days and was naturally extremely familiar with his routine. In order not to suffer his ears, he quickly said, “Chris Chen, hurry up and get the tableware. I think the dog meat is about ready!”

The old steward had no choice but to reluctantly stop his speech and turned to get bowls and spoons. Old Xie stood by with a proud, wicked smile.

However, just as Old Xie was about to enjoy the pleasure brought by the fragrant meat, his interest was disrupted by a noise of footsteps. Angrily, he turned his face and saw a group of guards escorting a Noble young man walking into his courtyard with Killing Intent.

This young Noble was just over 20 years old, with a oily and pink face. That seductive little face was simply exquisite. If a beauty saw it, she would probably die of jealousy. Although this person looked good, his eyes flashed with a lewd and cowardly color, which ruined the overall beauty. If he looked like a beauty, then he was simply a useless vase.

After that kid came in, he saw the bloody skeleton hanging on the flower stand and was scared out of his wits on the spot, so much so that his whole body trembled in fear. Then he let out a sky-shattering scream. This annoyed Old Xie greatly. He thought, I just came back, and after much effort cooked the dog meat and was about to enjoy it, but now this guy comes here to wail like a ghost?

Thinking of this, the angry Old Xie suddenly became bold. He rushed over in a stride and slapped the guy’s pretty face, cursing at the same time, “Cry your ass!”

Although Old Xie deliberately showed mercy, how could that Pretty Boy withstand his slap? A slap sound was heard, and the poor kid fell to the ground and fainted. A stream of blood flowed out of the kid’s mouth. This scared the group of people. They hurried over, patting and stroking.

“Damn, I only used ten percent of my strength?” Old Xie couldn’t help saying depressingly when he saw this.

At this time, the old steward had also come out from inside. He recognized the person Old Xie knocked down at a glance. His face turned green with fright, and he hurriedly said to Old Xie, “Young Master, you’re in trouble. That is the Eldest Young Master, Madam’s only son. You, how did you hit him?”

“So what if I hit him!” Old Xie said impatiently, “These bastards are chirping and really annoying. Just kill them all!” Saying that, he was about to go over and take action.

Those guards naturally did not dare to fight Old Xie, but they also dared not just leave the Eldest Young Master there, so they hurriedly picked up the Young Master and ran out. As soon as they ran out, Old Xie heard a shrill scream, followed by a woman crying, “My son, what’s wrong with you?”

“Madam, it was the Little Young Master who hit him!” a guard said indignantly, “The Little Young Master is too unreasonable. The Eldest Young Master just went in to ask him a question, but before he could ask, he was beaten like this by the Little Young Master. Madam, you must seek justice for the Eldest Young Master!”

“That damn bastard, kill him for me!” that woman shouted immediately.

Old Xie was angry when he heard this. This bitch actually dared to curse him. He was so angry that he jumped out, wanting to have a big fight. However, after Old Xie went out, he saw an extremely strange scene.

It turned out that there were over a hundred people standing outside the door at this time. Besides the dozen or so guards who escorted the Eldest Young Master, there were two more groups. Although their clothes were almost the same, they were clearly divided into two sides. One group surrounded a middle-aged noblewoman. The woman looked ordinary, not beautiful, but not very ugly either. She had a haughty air of a superior, but her youth was gone, and she wore too much powder on her face. Scraping it off would probably yield half a pound. The other group was led by a wretched fat man.

At this time, although the fat man still looked wretched, his facial features twisted by anger made him completely transform into another fierce appearance. He rushed over and first gave the woman a hard slap, knocking her directly to the ground. Then he pointed at her nose and cursed, “You fcking remember for me, Little Steven’s mother is the woman I married properly. And Little Steven is the only heir who inherited the family blood. As for a bastard, there is indeed one in this family, but don’t you know who he is?” Saying that, he fiercely glanced at the Pretty Boy on the ground. The anger in his eyes could almost spurt out.

Old Xie was amused when he saw this. It couldn’t be helped, because the difference in appearance between the so-called father and son was too big. The fat man had a face full of pits, as many as the stars in the sky. His complexion was dark, and he was short. He was only a bit taller than Wu Dalang, but limited. Looking at the Eldest Young Master on the ground, he looked like a flower. If this were really father and son, then Zhu Bajie could give birth to Chang’e! Anyone would know that there must be something fishy going on.
