Get something in the courtyard

Chapter 377 Between Neighbors
Silly Zhu is the descendant of Tan family cuisine.

Tanjia cuisine is one of the most famous official dishes in China. Tanjia cuisine is the family banquet of Tan Zongjun, a bureaucrat in the late Qing Dynasty. Because it was the second most popular dish in the second year of Tongzhi, it is also known as the "No. [-] dish".

The cooking methods of Tan’s cuisine are mainly roasting, stewing, simmering, leaning, and steaming. Tan’s cuisine is “good at making dry goods” and “good at cooking eight delicacies in high soup and old fire”.

Silly Zhu is not good at anything else, but he has mastered the basic skills of Tan's cuisine.

Although the smell of the mutton soup on Yan Bugui's body was weak, it still couldn't hide it from Sha Zhu's nose.

Silly Zhu felt very angry when he thought that Wang Kun did not show respect to the deaf old lady by delivering mutton soup to the front yard.

He even lost his good temper towards Yan Bugui.

"Third uncle, my guess is correct. The soup you drink is not the first soup. You regard the leftover soup as a treasure. Tsk tsk, you are not ashamed. You are still a cultured person. Really awesome Cultural people are a disgrace.”

Either that or Silly Zhu has a bad mouth.Sarcasm targets people's weaknesses.

Yan Bugui was proud of his status as a teacher and often regarded himself as a cultural person in the courtyard.This is his strength against Yi Zhonghai, an eighth-level worker, and Liu Haizhong, a seventh-level worker.

He usually makes calculations in the courtyard, and he still cares about his face.Now, Silly Zhu took off his face and threw it to the ground.

There were more and more people in the courtyard. Yan Bugui didn't want to continue to be embarrassed, so he turned around and went home angrily.

Shazhu didn't care about Yan Bugui's feelings. He took a proud look at Wang Kun's home and went to work with a smile.

Yan Bugui returned home full of anger.

"What's the matter, Lao Yan?"

Yan Bugui snorted and repeated what Sha Zhu said.

Yu Lixin said that what Shazhu said didn’t sound nice, but it was the truth.Who would have thought that teacher Yan Bugui would be so stingy.

The third aunt felt that Sha Zhu shouldn't say that, but Sha Zhu had such a temper that no one could do anything about it.

"Okay, Silly Zhu is a fool. Don't be as knowledgeable as him. He said that our family drinks from other people's bodies. Doesn't it mean that he can't drink if he wants to?"

Yan Jiecheng took a nice sip of the mutton soup with a lot of water added, "My mother is right. Silly Zhu can't even eat, but he still thinks about our family. He is jealous."

"That's right. Doesn't the mutton soup sold outside add water? It's just that the mutton soup at home has no meat. Sister-in-law, next time you go to Wang Kun's house, bring back some meat."

Yu Li finished the mutton soup in the bowl in one gulp, stood up and left.Why should people give it to your family if you bring back meat?Even if you get it, how much can you eat based on the Yan family's tradition?

Yu Li shamed her brother, and Yan Jiecheng immediately said to his brother: "It would be nice if I let you drink mutton soup. I still want to eat meat."

Yan Jiefang and Yan Jiekuang knew their family's traditions and were afraid of the family settling scores. They hurriedly finished the food in the bowl, took their bags and went out.

Yan Jiedai regretted not following Yu Li. With her relationship with Xue'er, she went shamelessly, and maybe she could still eat meat with her.

They all complained about Yan Bugui, saying that Wang Kun would not let Wang Kun bring them back if too many of his family members went there.

Wang Kun didn't know that just ordering mutton could cause trouble in the morning.After breakfast, Wang Kun was ready to send Xueer to school.

The little girl was worried that Wang Kun would not come home for a few more days, so she specifically asked Wang Kun to send her to school.

Lou Xiao'e pretended to be angry, which scared Xue'er and ran over to comfort her again.Xueer felt the taste of her mother in Lou Xiao'e, and she was particularly attached to Lou Xiao'e.

Xu Damao was sitting at the table eating and had no reaction to this scene.He was also used to waking up and sleeping on the ground in the morning.After eating, Xu Damao said directly: "Ezi, you clean up the house, I'm going to work."

Lou Xiao'e frowned and looked at Xu Damao, "Why did you go so early today?"

Xu Damao said without looking back: "Why do you care so much?" Seeing Lou Xiao'e about to get angry, Wang Kun stopped her, "Si Zhu ran to work just now, he must be following Si Zhu."

Lou Xiao'e shook her head, no longer cared about this, and started to clean up the house.

Wang Kun is preparing to take Xueer out.

Niu Qian led Xiaowei and Doudou over, "Wang Kun, I'm troubling you again today."

Wang Kun said with a smile: "Sister-in-law Tian, ​​it's okay. I was just letting Xue'er call Doudou."

Niu Qian let go of Doudou's hand and asked her to whisper to Xue'er. "I came to you to discuss something with you."

"Sister-in-law, what do you say?"

"Isn't it almost winter? I'm going to renovate cotton-padded clothes for Xiaowei and Doudou. I remember that when you brought Xueer over, you didn't bring any cotton-padded clothes."

Wang Kun suddenly realized that he had indeed forgotten this.Xueer didn't have many clothes in her hometown. She only had a cotton coat. Wang Kun saw that there wasn't much cotton and it was quite shabby, so he didn't let her take it with her.

These are planned to be made new directly for her.

Although it is not cold yet, when it does, it will be too late.

"Sister-in-law, thank you for reminding me. Otherwise I would have forgotten about this matter."

Niu Qian smiled and said: "You are a grown man, so it is normal to think of nothing. Our Lao Tian is going to exchange some cloth tickets with others to make cotton-padded clothes. If you are going to make them for Xueer, then find a way to exchange some cloth tickets and cotton tickets. .”

Wang Kun did not lack cloth tickets, but he lacked cotton tickets.The cloth ticket was given by Li Huaide, who was very generous in order to get the medicinal wine from Wang Kun.Two sets of tickets were collected for the three major items.

But there are too few cotton tickets, mainly because no one will wear cotton clothes until winter.

"Sister-in-law, I have cloth tickets at home. I'll go get them for you right now."

Every era has its own unique clothing.Wang Kun can use golden fingers to get better cloth than those sold outside, but those cloths are different from what everyone wears every day.The clothes were worn outside, and Wang Kun didn't want to cause trouble for himself.

Since Niu Qian planned to buy cloth, Wang Kun asked her to help her buy it together.

Wang Kun turned around and went home. He actually took out a few cloth tickets from the space. "Sister-in-law, see if these are enough."

Niu Qian took it and took a look, "That's enough. This is enough to make several sets of clothes."

"That's good, sister-in-law. Since you bought it, let's buy more. Make some new clothes for the children to wear during the New Year."

Niu Qian knew that the children Wang Kun was talking about also included the children of Qian Yingwu and Zhu Minghui's family.With good things in his possession, Wang Kun never forgets those two children.

"Thank you on behalf of the children."

"Sister-in-law, don't be polite to me. As for the cotton tickets, I'll find a way. Even if I can't get the tickets, I can still get the cotton. Let's just say that we bought it together."

Niu Qian nodded, "Don't worry, you won't let anything slip. By the way, I can ask you..."

Wang Kun shook his head, "Sister-in-law, don't ask what you shouldn't ask. I don't know what his condition is."

Lou Xiao'e heard the conversation between Wang Kun and Niu Qian. After cleaning up the house, she came out and said, "Sister-in-law, when are you going to buy cloth? Let's go together. Use Wang Kun's tricycle."

Niu Qian said: "Let's wait for two days. By the way, Wang Kun, every household will stock up on cabbage and buy coal in a while. You will also need to use your tricycle at that time."

Wang Kun naturally would not refuse.If others care about a tricycle, will he care about someone with a golden finger?
After talking about the daily necessities, Wang Kun took Xueer to school.With the help of these three companies, Wang Kun actually saved a lot of trouble.This is how neighbors should treat each other, instead of asking others to pay specifically like Yi Zhonghai did.
