Sumu wood in the quadrangle welcomes spring

Chapter 172

"It's the same for Third Uncle. You eat what's mine and take what's mine, so don't talk about it. Hey, stab me in front of others. What the hell do you think this is? "

Qin Huairu heard the meaning of the words.

Holding back a smile on his face, he asked, "Teacher Ran is ignoring you?"

If Teacher Ran has no chance with He Yuzhu, then what happens with Qin Jingru...

Isn’t this matchmaker just like that?

"The ride was bumpy."

He Yuzhu said with an attitude of 'that's for sure'.

Qin Huairu's eyes changed.

Look, He Yuzhu is no longer a person, but a pile of lunch boxes.

A lunch box filled with Jinhua ham sausage.

The corners of his mouth couldn't help but grin.

In fact, when faced with other people's sorrow, she knew she shouldn't laugh.

But who said she has not received professional training?

How can I say that, unless I can't help it.

So, I couldn't hold it back.

"What are you having fun with?"

He Yuzhu was speechless.

"You, you will never have a wife in your life! Teacher Renran, because you are a good person, you paid the tuition for Banggeng, right? I have no other intentions, and I have no intention of dating you, ah."

"No, no, no, no, no, I, I don't think so, I don't think so..."

He Yuzhu was so excited that his mouth dropped: "So, you have to do me a favor. You, help me go to school and explain to Teacher Ran..."

The New Year is coming soon, and He Yuzhu wants Qin Huairu to help him go to school to explain to Teacher Ran, but that will have to be after the New Year.

But as long as you promise, you have to do it.

This is a matter of integrity.

He Yuzhu wanted to implement it first, and he kept thinking about it.

"I do not care."

Qin Huairu was feeling happy at this time.

I'll explain it to Teacher Ran for you, so won't my cousin's affairs become dirty again?
I still have to be the matchmaker.

Without favor, how can he help his family with his lunch box?

Little women's thoughts are easy to get into trouble.

Yesterday, Mrs. Jia Zhang had been thinking about Shazhu’s lunch box, coupled with Su Mu’s iron temper last night...

"Don't worry, we are still making dumplings together on New Year's Eve."

Qin Huairu also heard the first uncle mention it.

When several families come together to celebrate the New Year, each family must have something to offer.

Qin Huairu still thought that it would be better to save a little, so she casually said: "Are you buying meat?"

If He Yuzhu buys meat fillings again, he will have noodles, cabbage, and radishes all ready-made.

There is no more pressure.

Everything is for living.

"One dollar stuffing."

He Yuzhu stretched out his left hand and made an oath, and his words were categorical.

In order to win over Teacher Ran Qiuye Ran again, He Yuzhu was really cruel.

Qin Huairu lowered her head and rubbed her clothes, thinking about it in her heart.

It's not certain whether Qin Jingru's matter will work out, but it would be easy to go to the school to help He Yuzhu explain the matter between him and the third uncle.

The New Year's Eve matters are just around the corner.

Moreover, the steel rolling mill has closed wages for the holiday, so lunch boxes have to be packed after the Chinese New Year.

So I was a little excited.

"Two dollars."

At this time, the elder Yi Zhonghai, who had been waiting for the deaf old lady, came back with his hands in his pockets and spoke to her.

"I'll pay you a piece, and I'll call the deaf old lady up when the time comes, and the four of us will celebrate the New Year together."

He Yuzhu and Qin Huairu both turned and looked over.

"Okay then, I'll chop the stuffing and make the noodles."

"Okay!" He Yuzhu saw that the first uncle had also come over, he pointed in the direction of the front yard bitterly, gritted his back teeth and said: "The third uncle must not be happy..."

"Here, what's wrong with him?"

"Master, don't mention it, he is destined to be without a wife!"

Qin Huairu had nothing to hide: "This teacher, Mr. Buran, won't come to our hospital. I thought I could make it with Silly Zhu this time, but something went wrong again, and the third uncle got involved." …”

Hearing what Qin Huairu said, Yi Zhonghai felt more relaxed.

Didn't work out.

If it didn't work, it would be better.

……

After Su Mu helped the deaf old lady, he rode straight to the army compound in Xicheng District.

Every Chinese New Year in the compound, the management department will distribute "small stir-fry" coupons to each family of military personnel.

The number of coupons varies depending on the rank, but with each coupon, each family can get a plate of top dishes from the canteen such as braised liver tips, mu shu pork, twice-cooked pork and other top dishes.

If you have a special New Year's Eve dinner you want to eat, you can also pay in advance and make a reservation at the canteen.

Although the Su Mu family does not live in the compound, as long as there are family members in the capital, they will never be missed.

Moreover, from the first to the third day of the new year in the compound, almost every household goes to the canteen to eat. The family sits around an Eight Immortals table and gathers with the neighbors. Everyone talks and laughs and has a good time.

After all, the military compound is almost filled with 'outsiders' from all over the country.

On the second day of the Lunar New Year this year, a wedding will be held in the large dining hall in the courtyard.

Su Mu's New Year greeting plan is about to be shelved.

Just take a walk today.

By the way, I plan to go to the tofu room in the cafeteria to get some tofu.

The ones I buy outside are all in small pieces, and if I want to buy more, I won’t give it away.

And Su Mu planned to wrap up Yuan'er in a cage.

Anyway, he had received the Xiaochai ticket and wouldn't be using it tomorrow, so he just got accommodating and exchanged it.

In fact, Su Mu quite liked the New Year atmosphere in the army compound.

But Su Chuanbai is not in the capital, and his eldest brother and sister-in-law are also far away in Shandong.

I called before. I have a heavy workload during the Chinese New Year this year and I won’t be able to come back.

If the eldest brother doesn't leave, the sister-in-law and the children won't come back.

Came to Uncle Li's house.

It happened that the family and the guards were busy cleaning.

The atmosphere in the compound is different from outside.

The management department will notify each household to clean every time, and then conduct door-to-door inspections. Today is the last moment of the compound's hygiene evaluation every year.

One of the activities that every household attaches great importance to.

Tian's mother is washing a large chopping board in the kitchen that is no smaller than half of her body.

It looks like it hasn't been used for a long time.

Su Mu was not polite, rolled up his sleeves and took it.

"I won't be here the day after tomorrow. I'll give you some New Year's goods in advance. I'm thinking of visiting Uncle Zhao, Uncle Kong and Uncle Xiao later..."

After noon on New Year’s Eve, notices about helping the cooks will be posted on the blackboard in the cafeteria.

Tian Mama and others are among the active members.

At that time, you have to pick up your own curtain, rolling pin, etc., and then go to the cafeteria with a group of family members and aunties from the neighborhood to help make dumplings.

Because in addition to rushing to make New Year dumplings, the canteen also organizes Spring Festival entertainment activities.

Pull a long length of lead wire, write riddles, hang up lantern riddles,

Fishing rod followed by empty wine bottle,

Various fancy games such as blindfolded touching the birthday girl...

Sumu is a solitary figure. He has just escaped from the smoke-filled battle, but he appreciates this kind of excitement but keeps a distance.

Tian's mother patted Su Mu's shoulder warmly.

After finishing the chopping board and curtain, Su Mu followed him out of the kitchen and went to the second floor to greet Old Uncle Li. When he opened the door, he saw Old Comrade Li lying under the desk with his butt sticking out and wiping under the drawer.

An old Red Army comrade who has always wanted to be strong in his life, he failed to check last year and lost someone in the health evaluation. This year he is working hard.

After leaving Lao Li's house, Su Mu went to Uncle Zhao's house in the next door yard, and then came back to visit Uncle Kong. After the family moved, there were also elderly people staying at Uncle Hu's house next door, and finally came to Xiao's house.My senior apprentice majoring in sketching and painting is already on the verge of excelling with his hard work and hobbies.

Go around in a circle.

The time came in the evening.

Lunch was at Uncle Kong’s house.

I drank less than half a kilo of wine.

Dinner naturally fell on Uncle Xiao's side.

Su Mu was not polite either.

The New Year's goods given to each family are very hard.

At noon, Uncle Kong cut the pork elbows in sauce.

For dinner, Uncle Xiao also stewed a large piece of bacon and cabbage vermicelli.

In fact, the cafeteria in the compound has been very busy since yesterday.

Therefore, the military family members have a tacit understanding that they rarely go out to open a small stove and try to solve it at home as much as possible.

Su Mu gave Xiao Chunsheng and Xiao Yanqiu extra gifts.

A picture album was given to Xiao Chunsheng.

It was drawn by Su Mu in his spare time when he was on a mission. It not only broadened Chun Sheng's horizons, but also made him yearn for being a soldier. It also allowed him to improve his skills through painting.

The best of all three.

What was given to Yanqiu was also a B5-sized notebook written by Su Mu.

There are Su Mu's demonstrations on the first few pages, and there is space for Yanqiu's own doodles at the back.

A handbook.

Girls are good at managing money.

Yanqiu is the little housekeeper of the Xiao family, and Yanqiu likes this account very much.

After the meal, Su Mu went back to his room across the street and stayed for a while.

I didn't spend much time here, but it left a deep impression.

During the time when I traveled to this world, the turning point of my destiny and my experience of the joy and excitement of life began here.

Night falls.

Su Mu left the compound by bicycle.

Returned to Xijixiang Alley.

It's New Year's Eve.

On the morning of New Year's Eve, he hoped that when he opened his eyes, there would be Sister Xueru by his side.

I think it must be quite happy.

……

Thirty years.

Everyone is busy.

Originally, according to the process of previous years, the three uncles were supposed to start with the deaf old lady in the backyard and post couplets on the courtyard.

The first and second uncles organized it, and the third uncle wrote the inscription himself. By the way, he received some benefits such as melon seeds and peanuts, and the euphemistic name was: polishing the pen.

But today, defective products came out of the front-line workshop, and both Liu Haizhong and his son Liu Guangtian were called back to the factory.

The collective interests of the country outweigh everything else.

The task of writing and posting couplets became the task of the first and third uncles.

In the backyard of the deaf old lady's house, go to the corridor threshold of the middle courtyard, at both ends of the hall, there are hanging flower gates and golden pillar gates...

The first uncle held the beaten paste, and the third uncle held the written couplets, and the two of them cooperated and posted them from behind to the door.

"Third uncle, your handwriting is really good. The more I read it, the more I like it."

Yi Zhonghai sighed sincerely.

Yan Bugui's calligraphy is really good, which he has practiced hard since he was young.

The third uncle, Yan Bugui, was obviously very impressed by Yi Zhonghai's compliments, but he was not modest at all.

He smiled and said: "The words are like the person, and the writing is like the person. According to the old saying, if you can only see the words without seeing the person, you will know the person."

The two uncles stood at the door, looking up at the couplets, sighing with emotion, and chatting.

A figure appeared around the corner behind him.

Xu Damao couldn't help but suffocated when he saw the two uncles standing at the door.

I rushed to the countryside to watch movies during the Chinese New Year, just to mix in more local specialties.

In the past few days, I have made a trip almost once every two days, and every time I come back, I come back with a full load.

If more people see it, it will have a bad impact.

Moreover, I came back very early in the morning, not in the afternoon or evening...

But everyone is already here, so I can only push the cart forward and say hello.

"The third uncle, the first uncle."

Yan Bugui turned around and saw Xu Damao pulling a large bundle of green onions behind him. There were several large bags hanging on the handlebars in front, and his eyes were shining behind his lenses.

"Da Mao, your life is quite busy now."

Xu Damao laughed awkwardly: "I go to the countryside every day to show movies to people."

"Haha, you gain something every day..."

The third uncle smiled pointedly.

Xu Damao knew what was going on, heard the words, lowered his head and took it out from a pocket on the handlebar.

"A little mountain product..."

As soon as Xu Damao started to move, before Yan Bugui could pull the beast out, he stretched out his hands and walked down the two steps to greet him.

"Ouch, okay, okay."

A bunch of dried wild mushrooms were taken into his hands.

Xu Damao continued to pull out: "Master..."

"No, no, no, I don't want it anymore."

Yi Zhonghai quickly waved his hand.

He can remain indifferent, but he will never be complicit.

This small favor is not worth it.

After all, Yi Zhonghai's income is not low. The salary of an eighth-level worker is 99 yuan a month.

Not greedy for these little wild mushrooms.

A trace of regret flashed in Xu Damao's eyes, and he subconsciously looked at the third uncle Yan Bugui.

"It's okay, I'm not welcome, I'm not welcome."

He waved his hands to Xu Damao, then turned to the elder Yi Zhonghai and said, "Wild mushrooms are chewy."

"Okay, then I'll go in first."

"You walk slowly!" A handful of wild mushrooms changed the third uncle's position from 'you' to 'you'. He also kindly helped Xu Damao lift the back of Xu Damao's bicycle: "I'll help you pick up a handful."

"Okay, thank you."

Xu Damao left without looking back.

Yi Zhonghai refused in person, which made him reluctant to come to Taiwan and not want to stay longer.

The third uncle, Yan Bugui, smiled and shouted from a distance: "Pay attention."

When Xu Damao entered the hanging flower door, he stopped his smile, and asked Yi Zhonghai with a little confusion and envy: "Master, Xu Damao has been dumping things at home every day for the past two days. I want to be a projectionist in your factory. Fatty!"

"Third uncle, let's go in." Yi Zhonghai did not respond directly to Yan Bugui, but changed the subject: "I still have a few pieces of red paper over there. Let's see who hasn't written anything on it. Could you please write a couple more. "

As soon as he heard this topic, the third uncle smiled again.

"It doesn't take much effort, just a little polish on the pen."

The two returned to their original state of talking and laughing, and stepped into the yard.

They went in, and Su Mu appeared at the entrance of the alley riding a Phoenix bicycle.

He did not go to Xiaoshi today.

I slept with Sister Xueru until I woke up naturally.

After posting couplets in Xijixiang Hutong, I was sent here to post couplets on the door of the house, as well as window grilles and New Year paintings.

Aunt Li has already prepared it.

The two women were cleaning up the house and packing the food, and they were going to stay up together to celebrate the Spring Festival on New Year's Eve.

Chen Xueru is looking forward to this Spring Festival very much.

Not only do I have a family, my lover is also by my side.

It's all over.
