Siheyuan: a hole in the sky with you

Zhou Jianguo had no idea that so many things would happen later. He was rushing home now. It was already half past ten. If he didn't hurry back and go back, the old lady would have to worry.

He is still a child now, and his heart disease has just recovered. If he goes back late, not only the old lady will be worried, but also the aunt will be worried.

Therefore, Zhou Jianguo pedaled the bicycle very fast with both feet, faster than a car. It was also for this reason that Qiu Liyan and the others quickly lost sight of Zhou Jianguo.

They also didn't expect Zhou Jianguo to ride so fast. In his mind, the bicycle could only reach a speed of ten kilometers per hour at most, so there was no way he could catch up.

Who knew that Zhou Jianguo would treat the bicycle as a car and suddenly increase the speed to more than 60 kilometers. At such a speed, it would be strange for them to catch up without a car.

At ten fifty-five, it would be eleven o'clock in five minutes, and Zhou Jianguo returned to the courtyard.

"Jianguo, he's back!"

"Jianguo, where did you go to play today?"

"Jianguo, our food will be ready soon. Come to our house and eat together."

....... Just returned to the courtyard, everyone greeted Zhou Jianguo warmly.

It can be seen that everyone's enthusiasm is sincere and there is no trace of falsehood.

Also, Zhou Jianguo is now the 'talker' in the courtyard, and he also knows a miracle doctor.

Although Zhou Jianguo had said before that this miracle doctor had left Huajing, everyone knew very well that if Zhou Jianguo wanted to contact this miracle doctor, he could still do so.

Everyone gets sick sometimes, and if there is a miracle doctor, they will have peace of mind.

Therefore, when everyone faces Zhou Jianguo now, their faces are full of enthusiasm, and there is nothing fake in them.

"No, the old lady is still waiting for me to cook." Zhou Jianguo smiled and greeted the people in the yard while rejecting their invitation.

It's not that Zhou Jianguo looks down on others, or that he doesn't want to get along with these people. Everyone lives in the same yard and are all neighbors. Zhou Jianguo still wants to get along well with everyone. Otherwise, he wouldn't take out those two in the morning.

Fifteen or six pounds of fat meat was 'divided' and given to everyone.

Zhou Jianguo refused because he would be embarrassed if he went to eat.

If he goes to dinner, people will definitely bring out the best things to entertain him.

Imagine that when it's time to eat, only the man of the house will accompany him to eat. There are big fish and meat on the table, but other women and children cannot be on the table.

If it were just like this, Zhou Jianguo would not refuse, because this is the custom in many places. No, it should be said that this was the custom before everyone's life really got better in the 1990s.

However, Zhou Jianguo knew very well that the food for those children and women was definitely very poor, because the good food was all on the table.

Do you think Zhou Jianguo was eating or not eating at that time?

If you don't eat, others will misunderstand you, but if you eat, you won't feel stable in your heart.

My child, the woman is eating chaffy vegetables while he is eating big fish and meat. It’s really not decent!

Therefore, Zhou Jianguo refused directly, which saved him from causing unnecessary trouble.

Back in the backyard, the old lady and the eldest mother were together, and they were folding the green beans that they had left behind.

It is still March in Huajing, and it is definitely a pleasure to eat fresh green beans during this month.

No, the other residents in the back are now looking at the old lady and aunt with envy.

The old lady and aunt obviously also liked this atmosphere. While everyone was preparing lunch, they talked about some news they heard from the "Chaoyang People".

Seeing this, Zhou Jianguo felt relieved. He was afraid that the old lady would have no one to accompany her when he was away. Now it seems that it is not bad.

This is the good thing about old ladies and aunts. They don’t ask questions about the origin of those vegetables. For them, as long as Zhou Jianguo brings it back, it belongs to their family. As for the origin of this thing, they

Won't ask.

Women in this era all have the idea that women take care of the inside of the home and men take care of things outside.

Men are responsible for making money to support the family, and women are responsible for taking care of the home. As long as it is money earned by men, women generally will not ask about it.

Of course, the old lady and the aunt knew Zhou Jianguo well and knew that he would not do anything bad.

"Eldest grandson, why are you back so late?" The old lady saw Zhou Jianguo coming back, and asked with some worry: "Are you feeling unwell? Yuyu's school is so far away, and there are so many trips back and forth. The eldest grandson is tired.

Alright."

After saying that, the old lady picked up the teacup on one side, poured a bowl of tea, and handed it to Zhou Jianguo.

"Thank you, grandma!" Zhou Jianguo took it and drank it all in one gulp. After riding for such a long distance, he was really thirsty.

"Grandma, don't worry, there's nothing wrong with me." Zhou Jiaguo said with a smile. After that, he took out some vegetables from the bag on the back seat of the bicycle and handed them to the eldest mother.

"Grandma, I just went to get vegetables." Zhou Jianguo explained while getting them.

"That's good, that's good." The old lady was relieved. She had been worried just now whether Zhou Jianguo's heart disease had recurred. Otherwise, why hadn't he come back for so long?

It's fine now. Zhou Jianguo went to get vegetables, so the delay was not due to heart disease. The old lady was finally relieved.

Zhou Jianguo took out another bag of river shrimp, brought it to the old lady, and said with a showy face: "Grandma, look, this is your favorite river shrimp. I'm lucky today. I met someone on the way back.

I went to some fish collectors and bought three kilograms of river prawns, all of which are large river prawns. I will definitely give you, grandma, a good meal this time."

After the old lady saw these river shrimps, her eyes suddenly lit up. She would not have such a big reaction to other things, but this river shrimp is indeed her favorite thing to eat.

"Well, this is good. The old lady's favorite food is river shrimp. She hasn't eaten it for two or three years." The old lady smiled broadly. Her eldest grandson was just thinking about her. Why don't you buy it back?

So many river shrimps for myself to eat.

"Grandson, just boil the river prawns directly, don't braise them!" the old lady warned.

"Okay." Zhou Jianguo agreed, looked back at the old lady, and said with a smile: "Grandma, it's better if you know how to eat. You know that steamed and boiled river prawns are best."

"That's right, old lady, I have been eating river prawns all my life, so of course I know how to make the most delicious river shrimps." The old lady said with a proud face, and then she talked endlessly about how to make the best river shrimps.

"If the river shrimp is only the size of a toothpick, it will taste best when used directly to make shrimp paste. If it is as thick as chopsticks, use flour and paste, plus some fresh green onions, to make pancakes. The taste is called

What a beauty..."

When the old lady said this, she narrowed her eyes as if she was imagining the wonderful taste. Zhou Jianguo and Auntie both laughed.

"Grandma, if you want to eat it, grandson, I will cook it for you right now," Zhou Jianguo said.

There are so many river shrimps in the two rivers in Dongtian Baozhu that they are overflowing, so they are full of river shrimps.

"That's not possible." The old lady refused with a serious face: "Such a big river shrimp tastes best and is freshest when boiled. If it is used to make pancakes, wouldn't it be a waste of such a big river shrimp?

.”

The more than three kilograms of river shrimps that Zhou Jianguo brought back were quite large, as big as a thumb. Such large river shrimps would indeed be a bit of a waste if they were used to make pancakes.

These river shrimps were all selected by him. In fact, he also had bigger river shrimps, but it was a bit scary to take them out.

"Okay, then I'll listen to you, grandma. This time we'll make it boiled. Next time if we buy suitable river shrimps, we'll make shrimp pancakes. Then grandma, you can try them and see how my skills go."

Zhou Jianguo responded.

"Well, that's how it should be." The old lady nodded, very satisfied.

At the same time, the uncle brought a middle-aged man in his forties back to the courtyard. This was a worker he had hired to build a toilet.

After knowing that Zhou Jianguo could cure himself and his aunt's infertility, the eldest man suddenly seemed ten years younger. He only felt that he had endless energy and could do things differently.

Extremely positive.

Originally, the matter of building toilets had to wait for two or three days, until people had a rest, but now the first man couldn't wait any longer and wanted to finish the matter that Zhou Jianguo mentioned as soon as possible.

It was obvious that Mr. Yi was trying to flatter Zhou Jianguo.

There was no way, who could tell Zhou Jianguo to be so generous? He didn't hold any grudges at all, and even took the initiative to tell the eldest mother to help them solve their infertility problems, which moved the eldest brother...

In fact, the uncle knows that even if he does nothing, Zhou Jianguo will never forget this matter if his aunt is here, and will definitely help to handle it. However, this person will always think too much once it involves himself.

.

Like the uncle, he has been worried about the fact that he did not treat Zhou Jianguo well before, and worried about the fact that he sided with He Yuzhu instead of Zhou Jianguo. Therefore, whether it is to restore his impression in Zhou Jianguo's heart, or

In order to repay his kindness, this time the uncle acted very simply.

He came to the door in the morning, and then brought people to the courtyard at noon, preparing to build the toilet requested by Zhou Jianguo as soon as possible.

Moreover, in order to speed up the work, he also made a promise to finish the work one day earlier, and he would add a reward of five yuan. Once this reward was given, there was no need for the first man to urge him, and Xu San in turn urged him to go back to the courtyard.
