A Journey Beginning in a Siheyuan

After He Yuzhu entered the kitchen, he still ordered Lou Xiao'e to wash the vegetables.

"Brother Zhuzi, can you teach me how to chop vegetables? I want to learn how to chop vegetables and cook." Lou Xiao'e said quickly.

"Why do you want to learn to cook all of a sudden? You don't want to feed me food in the future, do you? From now on, you can just be responsible for the food. I will do it and make you fat and white."

Facing He Yuzhu's naked confession, Lou Xiao'e immediately blushed with embarrassment.

He said in a low voice: "I cook for my mother. She has a birthday in a few days. I'm so old and I haven't cooked for them yet. You will definitely cook for me in the future. And I don't want to

So fat!"

He Yuzhu listened carefully to Lou Xiao'e's words. He thought she was filial at first! Why did it change later?

"But she is indeed the girl I like. She is so sensible and has a shy look that is so beautiful. He Yuzhu looked at Lou Xiao'e and thought."

"Why do you keep staring at people? Is there something on my face?" Lou Xiao'e thought there was something on her face and hurriedly patted her face with her hand.

"Yes, a flower grew on my face, and it's still in my heart." He Yuzhu's disgusting words made him really commotion.

Maybe this is how a man looks when facing the woman he loves?

Lou Xiao'e was already extremely shy.

"Hurry up and teach me how to chop vegetables! And teach me how to make two simple and delicious dishes."

"Okay, I'll teach you right away." He Yuzhu replied.

Of course, you can’t teach that many things at once. You can only teach Lou Xiaoe some knife skills and techniques for cutting vegetables.

The Lou family started to have dinner, and He Yuzhu was still chatting with Mr. Lou about what was happening in society.

During the conversation, Mr. Lou asked another more pointed topic.

Let’s talk about your views on going to the countryside.

He Yuzhu knew that it was not easy for him to evaluate such issues, and this activity would take a long time to develop, at least not until the late 1970s and early 1980s.

This is a sensitive issue, so I won't say anything more.

He Yuzhu did not dare to say anything more. After all, this was a major social event, not to mention that it was the early 1960s.

In the original work, the Lou family was labeled as a capitalist roader, and was finally acquitted because He Yuzhu went to seek help from the leader, and finally left Hong Kong."

"Yes! Yes! It's better not to talk about such issues. I also agree with Brother Zhuzi's point of view." Lou Xiao'e quickly agreed.

Although Director Lou was not very satisfied with what He Yuzhu said, He Yuzhu did not dare to say anything more. It was natural.

In Lou Dong's heart, his family was very patriotic. During the war of resistance and liberation, they were able to contribute a lot of materials, money and food to the country.

He felt very sad and anxious, worried about the future of the country. Maybe this is what a conscientious entrepreneur should do!

As for He Yuzhu who did not dare to say anything, Lou Dong also understood that if He Yuzhu said everything, then he would have to consider whether to hand over his daughter to him.

If you dare to say such offensive words to the father of a person you have only known for a few days, is he stupid? Do you dare to hand over your daughter to such a person? Father Lou would not dare to do so anyway.

"Okay, don't talk about such big things during meal time. Let's just live our own lives. Madam Lou couldn't stand it anymore. After speaking, she even looked at Lou's father with her eyes, telling him to stop talking and eat quickly!

"

Lou's father said nothing more. After dinner, Lou Dong began to teach He Yuzhu how to play chess, while Lou Xiao'e made tea for the two of them.

He Yuzhu was still very interested in playing chess, and even taught him how to play Go. He only knew backgammon and chess, and he knew nothing about Go.

He always thought playing Go was cool and handsome. Every time he watched others play, he didn't know the meaning of the place he played.

It is a dream to have Lou Dong teach him now.

After teaching for an hour and a half, He Yuzhu proposed to go back. After all, he had other things to do. Father Lou thought it was not safe at night, so he agreed.

He Yuzhu still made an appointment with Lou Xiao'e, and he would come to cook for her tomorrow evening. This made Lou Xiao'e very happy and full of expectations.

He Yuzhu said goodbye to Lou Xiao'e, rode his bicycle slowly all the way to Brother Hei's address, and knocked on the door.

Brother Hei had already prepared it. For this reason, he did not go to the black market today. He only left three younger brothers watching over there. As for the others, he arranged for them to come over.

Opening the door, I saw He Yuzhu still looked familiar, with a black hat and a mask. It was impossible to tell what he looked like at night, except that he was quite tall and looked quite strong.

As soon as He Yuzhu came, he felt that he was safe this time. He was very excited. He was finally going to make a big fortune. Tonight was a new chapter in his life.

"Brother Hei, are you ready?" He Yuzhu couldn't help but ask.

"Brother, don't worry. I've got all the people ready. They're all brothers I can trust. Nothing will happen to them. They're all doing gun-and-gun business. I'll definitely be cautious."

"That's good. Are the poles, baskets, and carts I asked you to prepare ready?"

"It's ready, let's wait for brother's goods." Hei Ge said as he went to the market.

"Okay, then let your brother go with us! But it's a bit special for so many people to walk together. Even though it's night, ask your brothers to go separately, two together, and then follow them at a distance, as long as they see people.

."

Brother Hei didn't expect He Yuzhu to think so carefully, so he quickly gave instructions to his brother.

He Yuzhu walked with Brother Hei and one of Brother Hei's men. He Yuzhu talked with Brother Hei as he walked.

The bicycle was thrown into space by He Yuzhu. Brother Hei and the others didn't have bicycles, so He Yuzhu couldn't use it.

Moreover, taking out the bicycle will also expose some of his personal information. Don't forget, He Yuzhu's bicycle has been registered.

For people like Brother Hei, if they want to find you, they can still do it.

Therefore, He Yuzhu did not rely on himself, but grew insignificantly, taking one step at a time, unable to eat hot tofu in a hurry. In such an era, every step of caution is the right thing to do, and he is saving his own life.

Finally, Hei Ge was brought to the yard he rented for the afternoon. Hei Ge looked at the place and found that it was quite close to the black market. This was great. He could ship the goods tonight.

He Yuzhu took him to a room where half of the room's things were stored. When He Yuzhu came, he observed that Hei Ge had a lot of people, twelve people. Maybe this amount of things was not enough, but it was also the first time to cooperate to see the effect.

This batch of goods is actually not that small, at least He Yuzhu thinks he can sell it on the black market for three nights.

Brother Hei was so happy when he saw half of the room. This was much better than collecting fish every day, and no one went fishing recently. This is why he valued He Yuzhu so much. After all, he relied on him to raise fish.

There are many brothers.

After He Yuzhu and Hei Ge concluded the transaction happily, they agreed to hand over He Yuzhu's share of the money to him next Monday.

As for the goods, I will give them to Brother Hei next time.

He Yuzhu didn't say much to Brother Hei. The more he said, the more mistakes he made.

It was already around 11:40 p.m., and He Yuzhu finally returned to the courtyard after more than 40 minutes of journey. As soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw the figure of the third uncle, who had gotten up to go to the toilet and returned.

Nowadays, the large ones have to go to the public restrooms. There is one in the front yard, the middle yard and the back yard of the compound. But the small ones can be settled at home. They will prepare a urinal at home, and they will be able to use it when they wake up in the morning.

Fell in the toilet.

He Yuzhu not only misses the toilet in modern homes, he also misses paper towels when going to the toilet.

Nowadays, there are no such good paper towels in the toilet. The only things that can be used are newspapers, old books and some cardboard products. It feels like using it. When He Yuzhu came here, he was not used to this kind of life.

But there was no way, he couldn't complete the task, he just had to stay here, and after a while he got used to it, but he tried his best to use newspapers, because using other things was too uncomfortable.

For this reason, He Yuzhu would sell a lot of newspapers when he saw them.

Third uncle, I was thinking of tricking He Yuzhu into helping with the banquet tonight!

Suddenly he saw He Yuzhu pushing his bicycle back and finishing using the toilet. He felt relaxed and comfortable all over.

"Hey! Isn't this Zhuzhu? Are you back? I want to talk to you about something today? Who knew your house was locked? When I inquired later, I found out that you had asked for leave at noon. What were you doing, Zhuzhu?

"

"What do you want from me, Mr. Third? Didn't I ask for leave at noon to buy a bicycle? Doesn't it look pretty to you? As for coming back so late, of course the boss asked me to cook. I have been talking to the boss for a long time about work."

The third uncle listened blankly. He Yuzhu said that he bought a bicycle. He originally thought that he was the second one in the compound to buy it, but he didn't expect that He Yuzhu beat him to it. As for the banquet, the third uncle had forgotten about it.

Zhonghe could only see He Yuzhu's bicycle.

"Third uncle, there's nothing to do. I'll go back first. After all, it's so late and I have to go to work tomorrow morning!"

"Uh, okay, go to bed!" The third uncle said a little dazedly.

He Yuzhu ignored so much. He was tired enough today. As for taking a bath in the north, he didn't wash it every day. He was already very tired today, but he didn't even sweat, so he decided to go to bed directly.

Winter is getting ready. He Yuzhu has recently felt that the weather is changing day by day. Maybe when he wakes up tomorrow, the window will be white. With some random thoughts, He Yuzhu fell into a deep sleep.

But the two girls in school were not sleepy at all.

He Yuyu and Yu Haitang went out for a day today. They went shopping around Wangfujing. The happiness of the girls now is to eat food from the vendors. Today they had popcorn, salted peanuts, rock sugar water, etc.

.

They also brought two portions of popcorn, hoping to take it back to their relatives to try, but they were so engrossed in shopping that they didn't realize it was already very late. When they found out, they decided to go home tomorrow.

Since it was close to the school, they chose to live here. After all, they were a little tired and fell asleep as soon as they came back.

After sleeping for three hours, the two girls woke up from hunger. Then they ate popcorn. Then He Yuyu invited Yu Haitang to his home as a guest. Yu Haitang was moved by He Yuyu's words.

Because He Yuyu told her that her brother’s cooking was delicious, and their family often ate oil and water. Yu Haitang hadn’t eaten meat for a long time. Even when she went out to play today, most of it was paid for by He Yuyu.
