Era: Craftsmen in the Siheyuan

Chapter 166 "Life"

He Yuzhu said: "You don't understand what I mean, you don't want to think about it anymore? Now everyone in the courtyard is talking about you!"

Xu Deyong said calmly: "The mouth is on someone else's body. I can't control whether it's talking or farting. I'm alive, not living in someone else's mouth!"

He Yuzhu: "..."

Makes sense!

The corners of his mouth twitched and he said: "Okay, it's May Day, right? I understand, leave the cooking to me. Then, when will you bring it back and let me show you what kind of woman makes you so obsessed?" Three ways."

Xu Deyong smiled and thought for a while and said, "Let's do it next weekend. I'll let you know more about it then."

"Hey." He Yuzhu said disdainfully: "It's like my brother has never seen a woman before."

Xu Deyong curled his lips and said: "Yes, you must have had countless women."

Then he threw him a small piece of chocolate and said, "This is the deposit. If you dare to let me go, I won't let you go."

He Yuzhu hurriedly took it, grinning happily and said: "Oh, it's still in foreign language, chocolate, I know it, don't think I don't understand anything!"

Xu Deyong said: "Don't eat all of it, leave half for the rain."

He Yuzhu said: "Are you stingy? The two of us won't give two yuan...!"

Before he finished speaking, He Yuzhu ran out of the house. He stretched out his little hand to He Yuzhu, but his face turned towards Xu Deyong and said: "Thank you, brother Deyong. I wish brother Deyong a happy marriage and a son soon."

Xu Deyong said with a smile: "Well, the rain can still speak. After you finish eating, I will ask your new sister-in-law for dessert. I will make sure you are not empty-handed."

"Okay, I understand." He Yuyu said with a smile.

Seeing that He Yuzhu was still dawdling, he pouted and said, "Brother, give it to me."

He Yuzhu's mouth twitched and said: "My hands are not warm..."

As he said this, he put it into his sister's hands carelessly.

He Yuyu took it and ran back to the house.

He Yuzhu muttered: "I haven't tasted anything yet..."

……

After Xu Deyong finished exercising, he opened the blind box with a thought.

"Clang, clang."

Two festive spittoons fall into the blind box space.

Xu Deyong grinned, "Okay, let's just treat it as a courtesy!"

After breakfast, Xu Deyong put on a mask, put on his feet, and went out wearing clean, dusty clothes.

Riding at the entrance of an alley, some people pointed behind me, full of gossip.

Nothing can be hidden from these old ladies with little feet and the "masses".

Xu Deyong rode all the way to Xu Huizhen's house and knocked on the door. Xu Huizhen opened the door for him.

"I'm washing my clothes again." Xu Deyong said.

Xu Huizhen shook her hand, rolled her eyes at him and said, "You think raising a child is easy."

Xu Deyong smiled and said: "Okay, okay, mothers are the greatest."

As he spoke, he took out forty yuan and said, "Grandma said this money will be used to buy you new clothes."

Xu Huizhen twisted her waist and turned around and said, "No, I don't lack clothes."

Xu Deyong said with a smile: "If you don't want me, I can put it away."

Xu Huizhen said: "Just keep it. Even if marriage is simple, it still costs money. I'll give you another hundred yuan."

Xu Deyong held her waist from behind and said, "Don't worry, your man still has a small treasury, it's enough to marry you."

Xu Huizhen patted his hand a little shyly and said: "The door is not closed, don't do anything, I still have to work."

Xu Deyong let go of his hand and said eagerly: "Daughter-in-law, when will we get the certificate..."

He wants to eat "meat"!

Xu Huizhen bit her lips and said, "After the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, I will write an application to the street. It will take time for approval from the higher ups."

Xu Deyong slapped his head and said: "Yes, I still have to go to the neighborhood committee to write an application. I'll do it when I get back from drinking."

Xu Huizhen said: "Don't worry, there are still some days before marriage."

Xu Deyong said: "When I come back, I have to renovate the house. There are only two rooms in the house, and grandma has to give up the inner room to be our wedding room."

Xu Huizhen glanced at him and said, "Then you... didn't consider letting the elderly people move here."

Xu Deyong said with a smile: "She doesn't agree for the time being. When you give birth to a fat great-grandson, she will definitely come over happily."

Xu Huizhen spat at him and said, "Who gave birth to you..."

Xu Deyong smiled "hehe" and took out two boxes of fragrant powder, placed them next to her and said, "Num, these are for you. Make yourself smell good. Come back and wait for me."

After saying that, he kissed her on the cheek suddenly and ran to move the wine jar.

Xu Huizhen covered her pretty face, gave Xu Deyong a "severe" look, and muttered: "Little hooligan."

After saying that, he picked up the powder box and smelled it. He couldn't help but smile. Then he thought of something, his cheeks turned red, and his eyes filled with tears...

Xu Deyong packed the wine jar, and Xu Huizhen handed him a net bag, which contained bread, chocolate, etc. given by Elena, which was regarded as borrowing flowers to offer to the Buddha.

He also packed a lunch box with food for him on the road and told him: "Slow down on the road..."

The babble completely led to the identity of the little daughter-in-law.

Xu Deyong grinned, got on the bike and set off with a wave of his hand, feeling even more energetic.

……

Walking in the wind, stop and eat.

There were obviously a lot more pedestrians on the road. Far away from the city, you could see busy figures in the fields on both sides of the road in the distance.

This cropland is the most practical, and the harvest depends on how hard you put in it.

Of course, this is unless there is a disaster.

God is always looking down on things and keeps creating difficulties for this "broken and reborn" land...

Xu Deyong did not stay on the road and arrived at Niulan Mountain smoothly. It was less than two o'clock.

When he arrived at the winery, Xu Deyong threw a cigarette to the guard. The guard already recognized him and called Xu Huisu to him with a smile.

When Xu Huisu saw him, he patted his arm with a smile and said, "You guys are coming faster and faster, come in quickly!"

Xu Deyong said with a smile: "Isn't this just to meet Brother Hui Sol as soon as possible?"

Xu Hui said: "Put it down, I'm not a big girl, it doesn't matter if it's early or late, hahaha..."

The two of them talked and laughed and came to the place where the wine was stored.

Xu Hui said bluntly: "If you come here at this time, your sister-in-law should still be in the field, and no one at home will help you. I'll give you the key, and you can go home and rest by yourself. It's not enough to take care of me."

Xu Deyong grinned and said, "Brother Hui Shu, there is no need to see anyone outside. To be honest, we will be a family from now on."

Xu Huisu was not too surprised. He nodded and said: "Last time you and Huizhen came here, I knew this day would come, but you have to be nice to Xiao Zhen. It's not easy for Xiao Zhen. If you behave like this again, ..., don’t blame me for going to you kid with a gun.”

Xu Deyong touched his nose and said, "That's not possible. Brother Huisel, don't worry. I will definitely treat Huizhen well."

"Hey." Xu Huisu sighed and said, "Don't feel pressured. You were chosen by Xiaozhen himself, and you have to live your own life. I, the elder brother, am far away and can't help you much. "

Xu Deyong said quickly: "You have helped a lot. Without you, Huizhen Bistro would not be as prosperous as it is."

"Okay." Xu Hui said bluntly: "If one family doesn't talk about two families, have you decided to live together?"

Xu Deyong smiled and said: "Huizhen and I have discussed that the date will be May [-] for the time being."

"Yes." Xu Hui nodded and said, "It's a good day. We are all working people. Your sister-in-law and I will definitely go there then. I'll cover the wine. That's enough!"

Xu Deyong said: "This is also..."

"Don't be polite to me, or I will agree to your matter." Xu Huisui threatened. Xu Deyong smiled and shook his head and said: "Then I will be disrespectful."

Seeing that the wine jars had been removed, Xu Hui said: "Okay, let's stop ink stains, brothers. Now that you have accepted the door, go back and rest by yourself. I won't see you off."

Xu Deyong said: "I'm not tired. Wherever my sister-in-law is working, I'll help her."

Xu Huisui waved his hand and said: "You don't need to do it. It's all a collective job now. If you're not tired, just go and have fun."

Xu Deyong smiled and said: "Sure, if nothing happens, then I will go to the river to catch fish."

Xu Huisui smiled and said: "Fishing is done by people who have free time. Wait, I will get you some wine grains to make nest materials."

After a while, Xu Huisu packed a large bag for him. Xu Deyong took it and left on a cart. He first went to Xu Huisu's house to drop off his things.

Then I dug up some earthworms, "took" the fishing rod and the sack and walked to the Chaobai River.

Okay, give this fishing rod a break.

I chose a fishing spot, inserted the bamboo fishing rod section by section, tied the fishing line, put on the earthworms, adjusted the float, threw it into the river and started fishing.

Then he dug out another piece of sand, mixed it with the distiller's grains, and threw it to the fish float.

The next step is to take the bait.

The sky is blue, the water is clear, and the sun is just right, giving you a half-day of leisure.

After five or six minutes, the fish float started to move. Xu Deyong got excited and moved earlier, but missed the fish.

carry on.

The next time came soon. Xu Deyong calmed down this time, seized the opportunity and said loudly, "Wow!" The fish fled wildly in the water, and the bamboo tip of the fishing rod bent into a bow shape.

Hey, it's not small, it's a big crucian carp.

Xu Deyong didn't give it a chance to struggle. He lifted it out of the water with a gentle pick and grabbed it in his hand. He couldn't hold it with one palm!

Good start!

Then the fish started to be caught continuously. The fish that should be attracted by the nest of distiller's grains were all crucian carp.

After catching seven or eight fish, I settled down and started catching some small miscellaneous fish...

……

Time flies very fast, more than two hours have passed, and the sun is about to set.

Xu Deyong also put away his pole and went back, and the harvest was good. He caught five or six kilograms of fish. He didn't fish deeply, and most of them were crucian carp. He only caught one small carp weighing more than one kilogram.

First time fishing, no air force, not bad!

He happily took it back to Xu Huisu's home.

Xu Hui, his wife and children had just returned home not long ago, and Xu Deyong smiled and greeted them.

"Little uncle." Xiao Yan'er called sweetly, probably under Xu Hui's instructions.

"Hey." Xu Deyong responded, touched her head and said, "Have you eaten the chocolate that uncle brought?"

Xiao Yan'er said: "Mom didn't let me eat it."

Li Xiufang smiled and said politely: "Deyong, what are you doing with those things? They are all in foreign language and they look very expensive."

Xu Deyong said: "It didn't cost any money. It was given by a friend of Dasu. I borrowed the flowers to offer to Buddha."

The two exchanged polite words, and he said, "Sister-in-law, where do you put the fish I caught?"

Xiao Huzi became more energetic after hearing this, ran out and blinked: "Fish, where are the fish?"

Xu Huisui chuckled and said, "You really caught the fish."

He said and found a black porcelain basin.

Xu Deyong said: "Just take a rest while fishing, because there are many fish in the river."

As he spoke, he poured the fish into the black porcelain basin.

"Wow, there are so many fish." Xiao Huzi's eyes lit up and he said, "I'll scoop out the water."

Then he scooped up water with a ladle.

"Wow..."

The water was poured into the black porcelain basin, the fish jumped up and down, and the little tiger laughed happily.

Li Xiufang warned: "It smells fishy, ​​so don't touch it with your hands and rub it on your body."

Xu Huisul chuckled and said, "Okay, leave him alone and let him play. It's better for boys to be tougher."

Li Xiufang said angrily: "Then you can wash their clothes later so that you can stand and talk without pain in your back."

"Hehe." Xu Huisu smiled and didn't care. He pulled Xu Deyong and said, "Let's go, don't worry about them. Let's go inside and drink tea. If you don't tell me, I'll tell you. The fish we caught are too small, so we just drink some soup." If you use oil to fry it, it will waste a lot of oil..."

In the evening, the two drank more than a kilogram of wine. Xu Huisui was drunk and dragged him to chat for a long time. In the end, Li Xiufang couldn't stand it and pulled Xu Huisui back to sleep, freeing Xu Deyong.

Xu Deyong also breathed a sigh of relief. This uncle is quite annoying when he talks a lot!

……

The next day, Li Xiufang asked Xu Deyong to take the fish with him. The little tiger suddenly became unhappy and cried and said that he wanted to keep it.

Xu Hui patted his head and said: "Why are you crying, little man? It's just a few fish. I'll ask you, Uncle Lin Chao, to take you to catch them later."

Xiao Huzi pouted and said, "You say that every time, but you never let me go."

Xu Hui smiled coquettishly and said, "You're still young, aren't you?"

Xu Deyong didn't plan to take it with him. It would be inconvenient and he would die if he went all the way back.

Seeing that Xu Deyong refused to take it, the boy burst into laughter.

After arriving at the winery, he packed the wine and Xu Deyong said goodbye and left. Before leaving, Xu Hui led him to pack another jar of distiller's grains for him to use when he went back to fish.

Xu Deyong didn't refuse, because he was afraid that if he took this thing back, his grandma would feed it to chickens!

After nearly five hours of riding we returned to the tavern.

Today, a district leader came to inspect the literacy class. He saw Cai Quanwu preparing lessons carefully in the cafeteria.

Xu Huizhen had just finished working in the cafeteria and was at home. When she heard the noise, she opened the door for him and said, "Come in first and have a rest. I'll get you a hot towel to wipe your face."

Xu Deyong followed his good deeds and sat down on the bamboo rocking chair in the courtyard. He had to show a hint of exhaustion even though he was not tired. Otherwise, how could he make the ladies feel distressed?

Xu Huizhen poured hot water on it, washed it with a towel and wrung it out, handed it to Xu Deyong and said, "Is the journey going well?"

"Yeah!" Xu Deyong covered his face with a towel, which was warm and comfortable.

The two chatted for a while, Xu Deyong told Xu Huizhen what he had seen along the way and Xu Hui's attitude, and Xu Huizhen told Xu Deyong some things about the tavern.

The two of them entered into a state of living in advance.

"Living" means living together, the trivial daily life of firewood, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar and tea; "日"...; "子" means having children.

Listening to Xu Huizhen's soft words in his ear, Xu Deyong almost fell asleep.

After lying down for a while, he got up to work and unloaded the wine...

……

Opportunities are reserved for those who have the ability. If you don’t have the ability, you won’t be able to take it even if you are prepared!

Xu Deyong and Xu Huizhen sat together and listened to Cai Quanwu's class together with the inspecting district leaders.

"Clatter..."

After the applause, when the district leaders learned Cai Quanwu’s identity, they highly praised the working people’s participation and said on the spot that “such talents cannot be buried.”

Also praise the bistro and Xu Huizhen!

Some people are happy, some people are sad.
