Era: Craftsmen in the Siheyuan

Chapter 190 Do you know

Xu Huizhen got out of the car with Li'er in her arms, and Xu Deyong pushed the car into the yard.

I saw two boys, Yan Jiekuang and Liu Guangfu, staring at each other at the door of the reverse room.

"Yan Jiekuang, you want to play with me." Liu Guangfu said with wide eyes.

"I'm afraid you won't succeed." Yan Jiekuang said not to be outdone.

At the age of eight or nine, he is stubborn and refuses to admit defeat.

When the two heard the noise, they turned around and saw it was Xu Deyong. They almost said in unison: "Brother Deyong, sister-in-law Huizhen."

"Yes." Xu Deyong nodded and said, "You continue."

Sometimes people are like this. If you try to persuade them to fight, they will still be energetic, but if you ask them to continue, the anger will be released.

Xu Huizhen nodded and responded. When Xu Deyong said this, she rolled her eyes at him angrily.

The two young men looked at each other, and Liu Guangfu muttered: "Brother Deyong, we are just joking."

Yan Jiekuang rolled his eyes and said, "Yes, we are just joking."

There are all kinds of strange reasons for children to have conflicts, and Xu Deyong didn't have the curiosity to figure it out.

Xu Deyong took the braided mat and half a catty of cut meat and vegetables.

There is also some fruit, which are sour apricots that farmers from the suburbs pick up and sell in the city.

The Liang Fei boy looked at it with greedy eyes. Xu Hui was really sensible and kind-hearted, so she took out the two Xing'er and gave them to each one and said, "Let's play."

"Sister-in-law Xie Huizhen."

The two of them glanced at Xu Deyong and accepted happily.

Xu Deyong didn't say anything and took his things into the yard.

The third aunt was cooking at the door. When she saw the two of them, she smiled and said, "Deyong and Huizhen are back."

"Third aunt is cooking." Xu Huizhen said with a smile, and Xu Deyong also said hello.

The third aunt said with dripping eyes: "Oh, Huizhen, you always go home empty-handed. Now Aunt Nan is not only respected by people, but also enjoys the blessings with you."

Xu Huizhen said politely: "What did you say? It is necessary to be filial to your elders."

Xu Deyong also smiled and said: "Raise children to prevent old age, store grain to prevent hunger. When your children grow up and work, you and the third uncle will enjoy even more happiness."

"Just don't be irritating and let us worry about it." The third aunt said with a smile.

After chatting casually for a few words, Xu Deyong and Xu Huizhen entered the middle courtyard.

Yan Jiekuang directly rubbed the apricot on his body. It tasted sour, sweet and delicious.

Yan Jiedi came out of the room and said, "Third brother, what did you eat?"

Yan Jiekuang said proudly: "Xing'er, sister-in-law Huizhen gave it to me."

Seeing this, the third aunt said: "You damn girl, you don't come out when you should call for help. Just watch now. If you are as talkative as your brother, I can worry less."

Yan Jiedi pursed her lips and said, "Third brother, can you give me the apricot kernel?"

Yan Jiekuang clicked his tongue and said, "If you don't give it, I'll still use it to sharpen my whistle."

Yan Jiedi burst into tears when she heard this.

The third aunt said angrily: "Just cry and go back to the house to wait for dinner."

After all, Yan Jiekuang had some conscience as an older brother. He curled his lips and said, "Stop crying. I'll see what's left at Brother Yong's house later. I'll get one for you."

"Oh."

Yan Jiekuang said: "Sister, why are you afraid of Brother Deyong? Brother Deyong feels better than his own brother. The eldest brother and the second brother will only steal our food..."

Yan Jiedi blinked and said nothing, and she didn't know why.

……

Xu Nanshi was also about to cook. When she saw them coming back, she put down her things and said:

"Oh, our little girl is here." Xu Nanshi took Xiao Li'er from Xu Huizhen's arms with a smile.

"ah……."

Xiao Lier grinned.

Seeing this, Xu Nanshi smiled and said, "Oh, my tooth is stuck, I can eat now."

Seeing them coming again with things, some complained: "Don't bring anything with you next time. What are you spending the money on? I don't need anything."

Xu Huizhen smiled and said: "I know, grandma, you can play with Li'er while I cook."

"Well, then you do it." Xu Nanshi followed suit.

She is also smart. Everyone has different tastes. My granddaughter-in-law cooks her own food, no matter how it tastes. She saves trouble and does not need to be complained about.

After saying that, she hugged Li'er and went to play on the bed.

Xu Nan is very satisfied with her current life. Although her granddaughter-in-law is married for the second time, she must have a decent appearance, a good temper, and no one can fault her words and deeds.

As for her, she lives in this large courtyard, has familiar neighbors, has things to do, and feels comfortable and not lonely.

The grandson and granddaughter-in-law come back three or four times a week, which saves them from having to worry about too many things and conflicts.

As long as she has a few more great-grandchildren, she will be completely satisfied in this life, and she can close her eyes one day.

Xu Deyong touched his nose and felt that he had been ignored. He carried the mat into the house and said with a smile: "Grandma, the mat I made for you will be cool in the summer."

"Put it over there." Xu Nanshi teased Xiao Li'er and said without looking back.

When your grandson gets married, he is already an adult. You can no longer treat him like an adult as before. Her care must be left to the next generation.

Of course, she still had to show off this mat "accidentally" after all, it was made by her own grandson.

Xu Deyong grinned when he saw this, he should help his wife cook.

Then, in order to express herself, Xu Huizhen asked him to stay away from causing trouble.

Hey, if you don't let me do it, you can eat it yourself.

He washed Xing'er with clean water and gave it to grandma. When Xiao Li'er saw it, he immediately stretched out his hand to catch her, mouthing "bah, bah, bah" like a greedy cat.

Xu Deyong picked a big one for her, and she immediately stuffed it into her mouth. Of course, the skin was only broken a little by the impatient operation.

He stuffed another one into the mouth of his wife who was cooking, and then sat leisurely on the threshold to eat.

At this time, the aunt came out from the backyard.

Xu Deyong greeted: "Auntie, what are you busy with? Eat an apricot."

The eldest mother smiled and said: "No, no, I'm cooking for the old lady in the backyard and cleaning it up."

Xu Deyong said: "You are the only one who cares about the old lady in our courtyard. Where is the uncle?"

The eldest mother said: "Lao Yi is working overtime in the factory. You and Huizhen are bringing the children back."

Xu Huizhen also smiled and said: "Yes, Auntie, please come in and sit for a while."

The aunt hesitated and said, "Then I'll have a chat with Aunt Nan, sit down for a while and then go home."

As she said this, she entered the room, sat beside the bed with Xu Nanshi, and looked at Xiao Li'er with great curiosity.

For a woman in her forties who still has no children, you can imagine how much gossip she has been subjected to before. How can she not like the fair and tender little Li'er who laughs when teased?

Talking to Xu Nanshi is just a matter of course, but looking at the children is true.

Because he has no children, he naturally has time to take care of the deaf old lady, and the relationship between the two families naturally becomes closer.

Xu Deyong ate an apricot, threw away the apricot core and paused for a moment, washed the apricot core, took out a hunting knife and flattened one end, picked out the almond with a pin, and drilled two small holes.

An almond whistle is ready.

"Shh..."

Xu Deyong put it to his mouth and blew it. The sound was naturally not very pleasant, but it carried the joy of childhood for many people.

"Ah..." At this time, a scream came from He Yuyu's room.

Xu Deyong frowned immediately, knocked on the door and asked, "Yu Yu, what's wrong?"

He Yuyu's somewhat frightened voice came out: "Brother Deyong, I, I'm bleeding..."

Xu Deyong thought for a moment and figured out what was going on. Over there, Xu Huizhen's aunt also heard the sound and came over, and Qin Huairu also opened the door and came out of the house.

"What's going on?" Xu Huizhen asked.

Although Xu Deyong guessed it, it was inconvenient to say, so he said, "You guys should go in and have a look."

Xu Huizhen, Auntie, and Qin Huairu went in, and Xu Deyong turned around and went back.

Xu Nanshi stood at the door holding Xiao Li'er and asked, "What's going on?"

Xu Deyong shrugged and said, "It shouldn't be a big deal."

Xu Nan handed the child to him and said, "Just watch it while I heat up the steamed buns for lunch."

Xu Deyong took Xiao Li'er and sighed: "Okay, I'm eating mixed noodles again."

Xiao Li'er concentrated on dealing with Xing'er in her hand and ignored him.

Xu Nanshi said angrily: "What's wrong with mixed noodles? It's good to eat some. You have never experienced famine. People must learn to be content."

Xu Deyong cupped Xiao Li'er's head with a playful smile and said, "Li'er, are we satisfied?"

Xiao Li'er had some objections to him interrupting her eating, so she pushed him with her little hand, "Ah!"

It seems to be saying "don't move".

Xu Deyong rubbed her little hand and said: "If you dare to push daddy, I will let you eat steamed buns every day from now on."

Of course, there are several kinds of steamed buns.

The best is steamed millet noodles. Millet rice has larger grains than millet and is lighter in color.

The steamed buns of millet noodles are "steamy" and have meaty ends when chewed, just like steamed buns. The skin can be peeled off and have a special fragrance. They are also the raw materials for snacks "noodle tea" and "tea soup".

Most people rarely eat it, it’s expensive, but it’s delicious and you can eat a lot more.

Next is millet noodles, also called small noodles and three-legged noodles. The ingredients are millet, corn, and soybeans.

Thirdly, cornmeal, that is, hybrid flour and cornmeal, is made of pure corn. In some periods, there were also "mixed noodles" (Japanese and Puppet period), sorghum noodles and sweet potato noodles.

Steam steamed steamed buns with clean noodles: sugar steamed buns are made with sugar, vegetable steamed buns are made with vegetables, jujube steamed buns with a few dates are called jujube steamed buns, and vegetable dumplings are made with meat, oil, shrimp skin and cabbage.

The steamed bun is golden in color and has a conical shape, so it is nicknamed Golden Tower, also known as Tuozi, also known as Li Yi Wai Jiu (holding the steamed bun with both hands, nine fingers on the outside and one finger on the inside).

At this time, Xiao Banggan took advantage of the door opening to run out of the house, came to Xu Deyong and said, "Uncle Deyong."

As he spoke, his little eyes looked at Xiao Li'er chewing Xing'er.

"Well, have you eaten yet?" Xu Deyong said with a smile.

"Eating right now." Xiaobanggan said, swallowed and said, "Hello, sister."

Xiao Li'er looked up at him curiously, then lowered his head to deal with Xing'er. The little guy was in a fight with it.

"Uncle Deyong, why doesn't my sister say anything?" Xiaobanggan pouted.

Xu Deyong smiled and said: "My sister is still young and can't speak yet."

As he said that, he glanced at the Jia family, and he could feel a gaze staring at them, which was a bit disturbing.

He then took out an apricot and handed it to Xiaobanggan and said, "Num, go home and eat."

Xiaobanggan pursed his lips, but did not answer. He pouted and said a little frustrated: "Uncle Deyong, my little wooden sword was broken by someone else again."

Xu Deyong raised his eyebrows and said, "Didn't your grandma go find her?"

Xiaobanggan said: "I ran away. Grandma scolded me, but she couldn't fix it."

Xu Deyong couldn't help but grin. This little guy wants to be too lazy to have sex with me. He can't spoil me all the time, so he said: "Let your dad do it. Uncle Deyong's tools are not here, so your dad will definitely do it."

Xiao Banggeng curled his lips and said, "Dad is stupid and lazy."

Xu Deyong gave an idea and said: "Tell your father every day that it will be done for you in a short time."

"Oh." Xiaobangjie said a little disappointed.

But what is the future of this guy? His current appearance is still annoying. Xu Deyong said softly: "Look back, if your father doesn't make it, tell me and I will make another one for you when I have time."

"Yeah." Xiaobangjie nodded quickly like a chicken pecking at rice.

Xu Deyong said: "But you have to remember, don't take this for granted."

Xiaobangge nodded as if he understood.

"Okay, here you go, go home." Xu Deyong handed Xing'er to him and said.

The little stick happily took it, turned around and skipped away.

He just passed by and gave this little sapling a hand. It was not up to him to decide whether it would be straight or crooked in the future.

At this time, Xu Huizhen and others came out of He Yuyu's house. Qin Huairu glanced at Xu Deyong, said hello, and went home with her buttocks twisted.

The eldest mother is still staying in He Yuyu's house. She is alone at home, so she should take more care of the little girl's emotions.

When Xu Huizhen returned home, Xu Nanshi asked, "What happened to that girl Yu Yu?"

Xu Huizhen whispered a few words in her ear.

Xu Nanshi sighed and said: "This girl is quite pitiful. She doesn't have a mother to tell her, and her father has run away. Fortunately, she still has a brother. Although he is sometimes inconsistent, he can take care of his sister like this. After all, Without a father or a mother, and with this dragster, it will be difficult to find a partner at the age."

"Yeah." Xu Huizhen responded.

Xu Nanshi blinked her eyes and suddenly whispered: "Nothing happened yet?"

Xu Huizhen's pretty face blushed slightly, and she whispered: "Not yet..."

Xu Nanshi nodded and said: "Don't worry, grandma just said it casually, don't have any ideas."

"I know." Xu Huizhen said.

……

After dark, He Yuzhu came back first. He knocked on Yuyu's door and said, "Yuyu, have you eaten yet?"

"Have eaten." He Yuyu's muffled voice came.

He Yuzhu couldn't help but muttered: "This girl is getting more and more outrageous. She doesn't even call her brother."

This guy looked through the window and took a look at Xu Deyong's family, young and old, enjoying themselves. He couldn't help but show a touch of envy in his eyes. He snored randomly, ruffled his hair, went into the room and lay down on the bed, not even bothering to take off his clothes.

Although it's still early, what are you doing if you don't sleep?

Ma De, I can't sleep with anyone, why can't I still fall asleep?

So... he had insomnia at night. After finally falling asleep, this guy actually had a dream, and what he dreamed about was--Chen Xueru.

In the dream, he confessed his love to Chen Xueru...

……

The thatched cottage is full of sleep in spring, and the sun is getting late outside the window.

When He Yuzhu woke up the next day, he thought of his dream last night. He sat up and was stunned for a while. Then he stretched his body and opened the door with messy hair. He saw Xu Deyong cleaning up the chicken coop.

After hesitating for a moment, he said: "Ahem, Deyong..."
