Daily life in the courtyard

Chapter 13

Host: Wei Pingan
Age: 20 years old

Main Occupation: Engineer (tentative)

Points: 66
Unlock skills: fitter (level 2210), cooking ([-]***)

Storage skills: 70
It has been several days since the last rest day.

Wei Pingan applied for the main skill upgrade yesterday with accumulated points.

As expected, upgrading from level 200 to level [-] does add [-] points, which is also the same as Wei Ping's skill leveling pattern in his previous life.

After the main profession reached the full level, it was automatically "delisted" and became a skill, but I didn't expect to unlock the sealed cooking skill from the previous life by the way.

And the main occupation is an engineer, which is expected by Wei Pingan.

It is not easy to change jobs in this era. The rolling mill has a high level of secrecy, and the binding attribute is even stronger. Wei Pingan can only "suffer" in the position of fitter if he wants to.

However, life is comfortable, work intensity is not high, and Wei Ping'an is very satisfied with the degree of freedom and comfort.

He is also happy to continue to live in a low-key manner in the melting pot of the rolling mill workshop.

The impetuousness and impulsiveness of the previous life, and the elegance and detachment of this life are simply two extremes.

There was no movement on the old Wutou's side, and the two of them didn't even make an appointment to go fishing together on this rest day.

Wei Ping'an will definitely go. The old Wutou is busy with work, so I don't know if it will be possible.

The contact with Wu Yuemin was only that day.

After lunch, the old Wutou grandson got up to say goodbye.

How confident I was before the visit, how disheartened I was when I left.

This guy Wei Pingan didn't save any face.

It may also be for the gasoline tickets sent by someone later... Anyway, Wei Pingan's goal has been achieved.

If Wu Jianguo hadn't developed a copper-skinned iron face with those comrades in these years, he really couldn't stand this kind of blow.

Wu Yuemin, on the other hand, regarded the experience at Wei Ping'an's house as a kind of magical contact, and got excited with the little girlfriends in the circle for several days.

Inferred from this, even if there is no old Wutou on this rest day, maybe it will not be boring and lonely.

The books borrowed from the library are almost finished, and Wei Pingan wants to change a few more.

This time, he earned a total of about 150 points through reading, which was less than half of what he expected.

Wei Pingan decided to switch to medical works and continue to try.

Different types of books will give Wei Pingan different levels of points.

This is what Wei Pingan learned in the last life, so with a library card, he can only try one type at a time.

Back in the courtyard at night, I accidentally saw Xu Damao's parents.

The old couple moved out of the courtyard house to the suburbs for retirement the year before last, and Xu Damao lived in the house all the time.

Wei Ping'an and Xu's father and Xu's mother are just acquaintances.

The old couple may have moved out of the courtyard, and their worries were much less. Xu's father even smiled and chatted with Wei Ping'an.

Only then did Wei Pingan know that Xu Damao had a blind date with Miss Lou, the director of the rolling mill.

Xu's father didn't say that the Lou family was the director of the rolling mill, and neither did the others in the yard know about Wei Ping'an.

But everyone knows that Xu's mother worked as a nanny for a period of time in a wealthy family. After the class struggle ended, the relationship with the main family has always been maintained.

Come to think of it, he is the child of that rich family.

Because Xu's father said that Xu Damao's partner had never stayed in a courtyard like this since he was a child, so let the neighbors in the neighborhood be more tolerant and take care of him.

This is an advance greeting.

In the evening, Xu Damao personally sent invitations, and two tables will be set up in the compound this weekend, and the number will be the same as that of the third grandpa's house.

As for the standard quality, it must be higher.

Looking at the overall situation, although Xu Damao is a villain, he is also a decent person.

Wei Ping'an was not stingy with the 5 cents.

The noodles are the same as the third master's house, so I don't eat them.

To eat at the same table as the poultry, you have to be hypocritical. Wei Pingan did that because he was very harsh on himself.

Although Xu Damao's family has no enmity or grievance with Wei Pingan, but there is no favor and communication.

You can get by.

Before you know it, the day off is here.

Wei Pingan went to Beihai early in the morning and caught a few fish leisurely.

I haven't met the old Wutou, and if I want to come to an old man in a high position, my time is not so independent and free.

I didn't meet the expected little girl Wu Yuemin, so I was a little disappointed.

Even if Wei Ping'an didn't intend to have a good relationship with Wu Yuemin, it didn't hinder his desire to feast his eyes.

Wei Ping'an prefers to live with the situation, and it may be that he didn't call Wu Yuemin in particular.

In his bones, Wei Pingan still resents the feeling of being looked down upon from a high position.

Even if there is only a trace.

When I returned to the courtyard, I saw a chef in his fifties busy, and He Yuzhu was also helping Qiedun.

Personal grievances are just that the two of them couldn't get used to each other in the process of growing up together, and they will not rise to the level of right and wrong.

Marriage is a major event in life, with the guidance of the elder Yi Zhonghai, He Yuzhu has to do it even if he is not happy about it.

It is said that He Yuzhu, the eldest son of the third master’s family, got married, and it also shows that although Shazhu is young, he has gone through the test, but Xu Damao hired another chef when he got married...

Is this a kind of grievance?

Maybe Silly Zhu couldn't think of this, or maybe he thought of pretending to be stupid and acted that he couldn't think of it.

But in terms of Sha Zhu's status in the industry, where he has not yet become the chef squad leader and is not well-known, the Xu family and the Lou family can barely justify not using him.

Just barely.

After all, you live in a courtyard, you don’t look at the monk’s face, you look at the Buddha’s face, and the neighbors around you don’t, so you have to use outsiders.

These are the thoughts in a moment when passing by, Wei Ping'an is too lazy to judge.

It has nothing to do with him.

Wei Pingan didn't see Xu's house, probably in the backyard or went to Lou's house and hadn't come yet.

The ingredients arrived, and the cook was busy. The third master was sitting on a table in the courtyard with a big horse. The prize shop was open, the teacup was beside him, and there were some melon seeds and peanuts on the table.

This job of hosting the writing and painting has always been the third master's job.

You can also earn a red envelope.

"Third Lord, when Da Mao gets married, I will take the money with you, so please remember."

Wei Pingan took out 5 cents and handed it over.

The third grandpa's family, Yan Jiecheng, got married, and Wei Ping'an also paid 5 cents, which is considered equal.

"Grandpa, we have to drink one later."

"I won't participate in the banquet. There are still things at home. Next time we have a chance, let's drink alone."

Wei Pingan declined.

According to seniority and status in the courtyard, the three uncles would sit at the same table, and the one Wei Pingan didn't like to talk to the most was Yi Zhonghai.

Why bother yourself.

Open a bottle of red wine and eat steak at home, isn't it delicious?
Wei Ping'an also saw that the banquet held in the courtyard today would be full of aroma, and he could eat something good by himself, which could cover up the aroma to a certain extent and achieve a concealed effect.

Surviving in a courtyard house is really not easy.

In fact, Wei Ping'an still doesn't know that the "ordinary" ingredients he considered in the past have long been hated in the courtyard.

I was trapped in the clouds and mist, so I couldn't find my way.

The sirloin steak drawn by the monthly lottery, individually packaged, and the butter redeemed by points, you can get an exclusive coupon for buying 20 slices, which can be used to buy tomato juice, black pepper sauce...

Points Mall is becoming more and more like a fight for Xixi.

He opened a bottle of Barolo wine and poured it into a swan-neck decanter as an aperitif. Wei Pingan didn't want to kill one bottle at a time.

Although only 12 points were exchanged for four bottles, Wei Pingan didn't want to waste it just because of the name Barolo.

Mainly because he planned to write something after dinner.

The stock of recently published articles is exhausted and needs to be replenished.

The steak is medium-rare, and the side dishes are tomatoes and carrots, dotted on the square dinner plate where the steak is placed.

Wei Ping'an is very good at enjoying life. When eating Western food alone, he cares about this sense of ritual.

It was just about to start, and before the first bite of steak was tasted, there was a knock on the door.

　This weekend, not going to work, happy... There is another chapter at 10 pm...
