Siheyuan: Chen Xueru helped me intercept Hu Qin Huairu

Chapter 171 Xu Damao wants to intercept Hu Shazhu

"How did you know it was going to rain?"

"That makes sense. Your sister and my legs are more accurate than those weather forecasts."

"As long as my legs hurt, it's going to rain."

He Daqing was startled when he heard this, and immediately thought of an old disease, 'rheumatism'.

It is said that people with rheumatic joint pain have this function. If this is the case, it seems that it is definitely going to rain.

Since it's going to rain, there's no need to buy too much food, just enough for the second half of the year.

Twenty pounds of grain is enough to be distributed every month.

Just thinking about this, he suddenly thought of Li Xiuzhu again.

That kid never makes a fool of himself, what if what he says is true? Thinking about He Yuyu and his wife, He Daqing muttered: "Why don't you give in? Buying a hundred pounds is enough."

It's just that although the price of food has not increased now, food stamps are already 40 to 50 cents, which works out to 78 cents per pound.

He Daqing used to be a bit distrustful of others, but now he trusts Li Xiuzhu more, so he also listens to the advice.

As if hearing He Daqing's muttering, the aunt was stunned for a moment and asked: "Why buy a hundred pounds?"

"Ah, it's nothing, thank you, sister."

After He Daqing finished speaking, he left with a worried look on his face.

Within three days, He Daqing purchased hundreds of kilograms of fine grain.

It rained the next day, but it wasn't heavy. It was just a burst of sunshine. It rained twice and it just wet the ground.

Although there was relatively little rain, He Daqing was not sure for a while whether it had rained or not.

This person is not sure, so naturally he will not pay more.

But this little effort is still necessary, but the time is one month late, and it costs an extra fifteen yuan.

Seeing that autumn planting has begun, it has only rained twice, and all smart people know how to harvest food.

Li Xiuzhu was shopping that day when he suddenly saw He Daqing. He immediately stepped forward, smoked out a cigarette and handed it to Lao He, saying, "Lao He divided this piece?"

He Daqing nodded when he heard this and said: "I didn't expect to be separated from Nanluogu Lane, but it's okay, I'm familiar with this area."

Li Xiuzhu originally wanted to ask about food, but after thinking about it, he still didn't say anything. Instead, he said, "Old He, I heard that Sha Zhu is looking for someone, but you didn't go and see?"

Hearing this, Lao He looked at Li Xiuzhu blankly and asked, "Why didn't I know what happened when?"

Li Xiuzhu smiled and said: "We are on a blind date these two days. There is Li Qiaojiang in the east of the city, his daughter."

"I met someone yesterday, and he was a good-looking person."

He Daqing was confused. He, as a father, didn't know that his son was going on a blind date. This kid, Silly Zhu, was really a bit stiff.

He Daqing's expression changed and he said, "Hey, this kid told me that he wanted freedom of marriage, and I agreed to it."

"It's okay. Maybe it's not settled yet. If it's settled, you'll definitely come and talk to me."

Li Xiuzhu nodded, took a puff of cigarette and said, "Old He, you are right. Silly Zhu is a little filial boy. There is no way he can do things without telling me."

"I'm waiting for your wedding banquet. Let's go first."

He Daqing looked at Li Xiuzhu leaving with a bad expression, but he still responded to Li Xiuzhu's back: "Okay, I can't miss your bite."

At the same time, Xu Damao was also taking action.

The girl who went on a blind date with Sha Zhu yesterday has not come out of Sha Zhu's house. He squatted for a long time in vain.

But it wasn’t completely in vain. I dug my heels in and arrived outside the girl’s house early this morning.

Song Yunping was intercepted as soon as she left the house.

Song Yunping looked at the shoehorned face in front of her with vigilance and asked, "What are you going to do? This is a new society, and it's broad daylight."

Xu Damao was stunned when he heard this, then smiled and asked: "No, girl, do you think I am a bad person?"

Hearing this, Song Yunping nodded seriously.

"picture!"

The words that came to Xu Damao's lips made him speechless.

Xu Damao complained in his heart and explained at the same time: "Girl, you misunderstood, your name is Song Yunping, right?"

When he heard that Xu Damao could call out his name at a glance, he obviously knew him, and he immediately let down one-third of his vigilance.

"How do you know my name? What do you want from me?"

Xu Damao was not nervous at all. Hearing this, he said, "Hey, it's not like I saw you coming to our yard for a blind date yesterday. I asked about it this morning."

"I just heard that you were on a blind date with Shazhu. I was worried that you were deceived, so I saw you just now and kindly reminded you."

Song Yunping heard this and asked strangely: "Who is Shazhu? I don't know Shazhu. The person I went on a blind date with is He Yuzhu..."

As soon as the words He Yuzhu came out, Song Yunping immediately realized something was wrong.

Apart from anything else, both of them share the character "Zhu", so obviously these two names should be somewhat related.

"Si Zhu is He Yuzhu?"

"Yes, Silly Zhu is He Yuzhu."

Xu Damao explained: "But because he is stupid, we all call him Silly Zhu."

Although Song Yunping was not happy when she heard this, she still asked: "So why did you come to me? Don't say it was a chance encounter."

Xu Damao choked back what he said, and said, "You are right, I am indeed here to find you."

"I saw you once before I left yesterday."

"Really, even though it's the first time I see you, I already have a good impression of you."

"Of course, I didn't come here to do anything or ask you to promise anything. I just couldn't bear to see a young and beautiful girl fall into a pit of fire."

As he spoke, Xu Damao changed the topic and continued: "Of course, it would be better if you don't mind making friends. After all, my uncle often said that gentlemen are good at fair ladies."

"Your uncle?"

Xu Damao nodded and said, "Yes, he is my uncle, not a relative."

"My uncle is the Dinghai Shenzhen in our compound, and everyone respects him."

Song Yunping nodded after hearing this. Although she was a little curious, she was just curious.

Song Yunping thought that since he was Xu Damao's uncle, he must be forty years younger at least.

"Okay, but you just said He Yuzhu was stupid, what's going on? Why did you say that if I married him, I would jump into a pit of fire?"

Xu Damao smiled immediately after hearing this. After gaining initial trust, the rest was easy.

"It's a long story. How about we find a place to talk about it?"

Seeing that Song Yunping was still hesitating, Xu Damao said, "You can choose the place, and your home is also fine."

After hearing this, Song Yunping finally nodded and said: "Okay, let's go to my house and follow me."

The two returned to Song's house, and Song Yunping's mother was also there. She was stunned when she saw the two coming in.

"Yunping, who is this?"

Before Song Yunping could speak, Xu Damao said with familiar enthusiasm: "Auntie, my name is Xu Damao, and I am Song Yunping's friend."

"I met Song Yunping yesterday in our courtyard, so I got to know him a little bit. This understanding was incredible. He was a fool in my courtyard." "I thought to myself, this can't let Yunping ruin the rest of her life, so she I came here early in the morning and wanted to talk to you."

Mother Song was startled when she heard this, and immediately said with an ugly face: "Are you saying that the person that Matchmaker Wang introduced to my family Yunping is a fool?"

Song Yunping heard this and said quickly: "Mom, don't talk nonsense. I see that He Yuzhu is not that kind of person. Let's listen to what he said first, and then we'll talk."

Hearing this, Mother Song looked at Xu Damao suspiciously, as if she understood what Xu Damao meant.

This young man seems to like his girl, but this method doesn't seem very bright.

Xu Damao didn't mind being stared at by Song's mother. He smiled generously and said, "Auntie, Yun Ping doesn't understand what he said. We call him Silly Zhu in our yard."

"Of course, he's not stupid or ignorant. He looks normal when he's normal."

"But I'll tell you a few things and you'll know."

After hearing this, Mother Song nodded and believed most of it for a while.

Although I haven't heard it yet, my demeanor doesn't sound like he's telling lies.

"Okay, tell me."

Xu Damao heard this and said: "The origin of the name Silly Zhu was before liberation, when he was still a young man."

"Si Zhu was working in a restaurant with his father at that time, but the Republic of China party came into the city and were robbing everything."

"When Si Zhu's father saw it, he told Si Zhu to run away quickly and split up."

"In the end, Silly Zhu was lucky. He didn't run away in a hurry. Instead, he packed up all the big steamed buns and ran away with the steamed buns."

"It's okay if it's just repayment like this. It doesn't matter if it's money but life."

"But when Silly Zhu came home later, he met a man buying steamed buns, and he still wanted them all."

"Silly Zhu sold all the steamed buns."

Hearing this, Mother Song said, "Isn't this great?"

"It's so good. What the other party gave me was all fake money."

Xu Damao continued: "You tell me, he is not a fool, and this is not the first time he sells steamed buns to his father. He can't tell the truth from the false."

"Because of this incident, his father kept calling him Silly Zhuzhu after he returned, and the people in our yard also started calling him away."

"There are more similar things than this."

"For example, that time in 48..."

Xu Damao and Silly Zhu are happy enemies and bitter rivals. When it comes to finding each other's shortcomings, it's a given.

After saying two or three things, Mother Song frowned and asked, "Is everything you said true?"

After hearing this, Xu Damao hurriedly said: "Can I lie to you? If you don't believe me, ask someone to go to our yard to inquire. Whenever I, Xu Damao, tell a lie, I will be struck by thunder from heaven."

When Xu Damao said so confidently, the mother and daughter believed it even more.

However, this was not the end, Xu Damao continued: "And you don't know, this silly Zhu loves to hit people. Except for the children in my Uncle Li's family, there is no one who has not been beaten by him."

"But my Uncle Li is kind to everyone in the hospital and has great prestige. He may not dare to beat my Uncle Li's son."

"Of course, the main reason I am telling you this is to tell you that if Yunping marries Shazhu, she may be subject to domestic violence from time to time in the future."

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of Song Yunping and her daughter changed.

It's a shame that she hasn't married yet. If she did, her whole life would be ruined.

When Xu Damao saw that the fire was coming, he immediately stood up and said, "Auntie, Yunping, I have said everything that needs to be said, but you definitely don't believe it, so you can find someone to inquire."

"Also, there is something I want to say. I also have a crush on Yun Ping."

"If you think I'm okay, I'd like to make an appointment with Yun Ping."

"Besides, it was rude of me to come empty-handed this time. I will bring a gift next time."

Hearing this, Song's mother hurriedly said: "Hey, you're already here. Don't leave in a hurry. You can talk to Yunping again. Auntie will buy some food. You can eat at home at noon."

Xu Damao quickly pretended to refuse and said: "No, Auntie..."

"I didn't even bring anything. It's already disrespectful. It would be disrespectful to stay for dinner."

When Song's mother heard this, she quickly pushed Song Yunping.

Only then did Song Yunping react and said, "Let's stay and have a meal. If it weren't for you, I don't even dare to think about what the rest of my life would be like. Thank you, Xu Damao."

Only then did Xu Damao agree.

"Then I'll stay?"

Seeing Xiaoyi's appearance made the Song family's mother and daughter smile.

Because it was a disaster year, there was nothing delicious, so I just had a meal of white noodles and two vegetarian dishes to take away.

This is already considered a good dish at this time. Most people only eat two noodles, and boiling some vegetable leaves is a complete meal.

"I'm sorry, Damao, my aunt was late and couldn't buy meat."

He sighed and said: "The supplies are too scarce this year. It is too difficult to buy some meat."

Hearing this, Xu Damao hurriedly said: "If you want to eat meat, come to me. I'm a projectionist in our factory. I get some meat every time I go to the countryside."

Hearing this, Mother Song's eyes lit up and she quickly asked, "Da Mao, are you the projectionist, the one who shows the movie?"

Xu Damao proudly said after hearing this: "Yes, that's what you said, but I don't show it in cinemas, it's in factories and communes."

"I can probably go to the countryside once or twice every month. If it's the New Year's Eve, I have to go out for many days."

"We projectionists are all very knowledgeable, so we will definitely not be able to get enough of Yun Ping in the future."

Hearing that Xu Damao never forgot to mention herself, Song Yunping blushed with embarrassment.

With this ability to hit the ball, which man or woman would not be confused?

Xu Damao didn't hide it, and briefly talked about his family background and work.

Xu Damao didn't stay long after the meal, he was very measured, but as soon as he went out, Xu Damao waved his arms excitedly.

"Silly Zhuzi, let me see how you compare yourself to me. Now your wife will become my wife, huh~"

After Xu Damao left, Song Mu and Song Yunping discussed it and decided to find someone to go to the courtyard to inquire.

Their home is also a courtyard house, so it’s not too easy to find someone.

"Sister Sun, can I ask you a favor?"

Taking advantage of the break from washing dishes, Song's mother found a good neighbor.

Sister Sun was startled when she heard this, looked at Mother Song and asked curiously: "Tell me what's the matter, I'll see if I can help you."

Now is the year of disaster, and Sister Sun is obviously worried about borrowing money and food.

Song's mother was not surprised. She was like this now. She just smiled and said, "That's it. Yesterday, Matchmaker Wang told my family Yunping about a partner, but I heard that he seemed to be a fool and liked to fight. Please help me." Ask if it’s true.”

Sister Sun's eyes lit up when she heard this. She said that she liked this gossip the most.

"I don't want you to run away in vain. I have half a catty of peanuts and I will send them to you soon."

"Okay, sister will definitely handle it for you."
