Era: Craftsmen in the Siheyuan

Chapter 77: No coincidence, no book

Chapter 77: No coincidence, no book (please follow up)
Day after day, he died young.

In two days, what Xu Deyong came out with was lackluster, a bottle of soy sauce and a bottle of vinegar, focusing on a down-to-earth aspect.

As the saying goes, "Let go of the rough waves and make firewood, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar and tea."

His blind box space can almost open a small grocery store. Except for the "turbulent waves" in the front, he already has five of the seven daily necessities in the back.

With these things, he can survive for a while even if he is thrown on a desert island to survive.

The ore radio has already been prepared, and I will install it for the deaf old lady when I go home in the evening. I must send it as a filial piety that "it has not deteriorated".

This noon was the day when he handed over the wooden skates to the young man with a flat head. He put the wooden skates on before going out.

He picked up two customers in the morning and walked around the street for a while without meeting any customers, so he rode his bicycle to the old blacksmith shop, where he still paid the money and installed it.

But the old blacksmith insisted on charging five cents less.

The old blacksmith's wrinkled face showed a smile and said: "Man, someone came to use similar drawings to make ice skates two days ago. Was it you who introduced me?"

Xu Deyong thought that it must be Gangzi, he smiled and said: "I just mentioned it, you don't need to go out of your way to charge less."

The old blacksmith said: "That's not possible. The price is different if you hit more or less. If you and your friend come to hit again in the future, it will always be three dollars and seventy-five dollars."

Xu Deyong didn't have any ink marks either, and said with a smile: "Sure, I will accept your old love."

The old blacksmith waved his hand and said: "No, it's me, old man. I appreciate your kindness. Are you thirsty after riding the three-wheeler for a long time? There is no tea here, old man. As long as you don't dislike it, the water pipe will be enough."

Xu Deyong said: "Hey, you always say this. There is no reason to dislike it. That kid will ask you for a bowl of water."

The old blacksmith showed a simple smile and asked his daughter-in-law to pour a bowl of boiling water for Xu Deyong.

By the time Xu Deyong finished installing his skates, the temperature was just right enough not to burn his mouth.

Xu Deyong drank the bowl of black porcelain and white bottom in one gulp, wiped his mouth with his sleeves, handed the bowl to the woman and said, "Thank you, Auntie."

The woman smiled and said nothing.

The old blacksmith said: "She is mute and cannot speak. Don't mind."

As the old blacksmith spoke, he took out a dry tobacco bag from his waist. The potter scooped out the tobacco powder twice in the tobacco bag, took it out, pressed it with his fingers, and lit it on the stove.

Xu Deyong was stunned for a moment and said, "How can I? My aunt is a hard-working person who runs the house."

"Boom, boom..."

The old blacksmith took two puffs and exhaled the strong smoke and said: "In those days, it was good to be alive and marry a wife. MZX and GCD are better, so that the people can live a peaceful life without being bullied."

Xu Deyong smiled and said: "Uncle, you are absolutely right. In the future, we may be able to eat meat every now and then and drive a car!"

The old blacksmith smiled and showed his yellow teeth and said: "That's a good feeling. I hope I can see it again one day."

Xu Deyong said: "If you live to be a hundred years old, you will be able to see it in these forty-nine cities!"

"Hey." The old blacksmith said with a smile: "Why live for so long? Live well when you deserve to live, and don't miss when you die."

Xu Deyong said: "Yes, you have always understood. I'll see you later."

"Go slow!"

……

After coming out of the blacksmith shop, Xu Deyong went to the trust store again and found that the wooden tower clock he had repaired had not yet been sold.

If he can't sell it again years ago, he will find other ways.

Afterwards, I rode along the way to the entrance of Xueru Silk Store, where business was bustling.

He didn't buy anything, but he looked at the people carrying bags and snacks and was about to leave.

"Xu, are you coming to see Xueru too?"

Suddenly, Elena's unique accent came from behind.

Xu Deyong looked back and saw the tricycle that Elena was sitting on stopped.

He grinned and scratched his head and said: "Ah...ah, yes, what a coincidence, you are here too."

He just passed by and had no intention of going in. He never wanted to meet Elena.

Yes, when Elena saw it, it was a bit of a loss of character not to go in when he got to the door.

Chen Xueru, a girl, has spent a lot of money on herself. Speaking of it, she is currently the "big sister".

Elena got off the tricycle and paid the fare. Holding a bouquet of flowers in her arms, she said, "Let's go in together. Xueru works really hard. Even if her foot is injured, she still has to work in the store."

When you go in, you can't go in empty-handed to see people.

There was nothing he could do, so he pretended to dig out of the cloth bag at the back of the car and "took out" two bottles of canned fruit, a bottle of yellow peaches, a bottle of oranges, and a bottle of sugared pears that he had to keep for the old lady.

Tsk, just one more glance will cause a little blood.

Elena knew about Xu Deyong's situation, and when she saw that he actually took out two bottles of canned fruit, she said with a smile: "Xu, you are really good at it this time, giggle..."

Xu Deyong pretended to be grand and said: "Hey, it's just two bottles of cans. The comparison between you and Boss Xueru is not worth mentioning."

Elena shrugged and said half-jokingly: "That's different. To be honest, I'm a little envious of Xueru. I hope that when I get sick in the future, you will bring something to see me."

Xu Deyong's tone left no room for doubt: "Of course."

The two entered the silk shop and greeted the tailor Lao Zhang.

Lao Zhang glanced at Xu Deyong, hesitated and said, "Mr. Hou is here today." Elena said, "Really? Speaking of which, I haven't seen Mr. Hou for quite some time."

With that said, he walked towards the office at the back.

Xu Deyong didn't do much. At most, he hugged Chen Xueru when she sprained her ankle.

He felt no guilt, seeing what happened to her man.

Before he could knock on the door, he heard faint sounds of arguing coming from inside.

Elena opened her eyes in surprise, mouthed at Xu Deyong, then knocked on the door and said, "Xueru, can I come in?"

This bitch is totally clueless!

The arguing inside stopped immediately.

Chen Xueru's voice came immediately: "Oh, it's Elena, come in."

Elena opened the curtain and pushed the door in, and Xu Deyong naturally followed.

"Hello, Mr. Hou." Elena shook hands with Mr. Hou.

Mr. Hou is about 24 years old, not tall, handsome and wearing glasses.

He naturally knew Elena, and said with a somewhat forced smile: "Hello Elena."

When he saw Xu Deyong following behind him, he frowned slightly and said, "Who is this...?"

Elena smiled and said: "His name is Xu Deyong. He is the person who accompanied Xueru and me to Shanghai before. He was also the one who sent Xueru to the hospital for her sprained foot. Xu is a pretty good person."

Mr. Hou said calmly: "Oh, thank you."

Obviously he had no intention of shaking hands with Xu Deyong.

Xu Deyong smiled and said: "You're welcome."

Mr. Hou immediately said: "I have to leave beforehand, you can chat."

After that, he and Elena nodded and left.

Elena tilted her head, as if a question mark appeared on her forehead, and couldn't help but ask: "Xueru, is there something wrong with your relationship with Mr. Hou?"

Chen Xueru said casually: "It's okay. It's inevitable for couples to quarrel and bicker. If you just sit down and pour your tea, I won't be polite to you."

Irina shrugged and gave the flower in her hand to Chen Xueru and said, "Give it to you, and wish your foot a speedy recovery."

"Thank you." Chen Xueru took it and said with a smile.

She glanced at Xu Deyong and saw that he put two bottles of canned fruit on the table without saying anything, so she said leisurely: "Why don't you say anything? Are you angry because of my husband's impoliteness just now?"

Xu Deyong chuckled and said: "No, everyone's vision and way of getting along with others are different. I'm waiting for you and Elena to finish talking."

Chen Xueru narrowed her eyes and said, "You say you won't, but you have a lot of arrogance deep in your heart, and you will show it inadvertently."

Xu Deyong smiled and said, "Really? I didn't even feel it myself."

Elena smiled and said: "I didn't feel it either, but I see you are very sincere, Xu. Two bottles of canned fruit."

Chen Xueru's eyes flickered and she said, "Open a bottle for me, I'm just wanting to eat something sweet."

"I also want to eat Xu's canned food," Elena said.

"Then open them all." Chen Xueru said.

Xu Deyong opened the two cans casually, and the two ladies each held one bottle and ate it with relish.

After seeing the people and giving away the things, he stood up and said, "You guys can talk, I'll leave first."

Elena said in surprise: "Leaving now? No, let's have lunch together."

Xu Deyong said: "No, I still have something to do. Besides, you sisters are whispering among women. It's a bit inappropriate for me to be on the sidelines."

Elena smiled and said: "Oh, Xu, do you know women well? Let's have dinner together next time we have time."

Chen Xueru also said: "Then I won't give it to you."

"You're welcome." Xu Deyong smiled and left.

When Xu Deyong went out, Chen Xueru curled her lips and muttered: "You still say you're not angry, you're such a stingy person."

Elena laughed and said, "You are too worried. I feel that Xu is not angry."

Xu Deyong is really not angry. He will not be angry at a person who is destined to be eliminated and does not even have a name.

The two girls obviously had something to talk about, so why was he staying here? It wasn't like playing poker with three people!
He was going to deliver the skates, and his briquette stove should have been nearly ready in the past five or six days.

He was ready to take it home and be beaten twice by his grandma, as well as being gossiped and watched by people in the yard...
