Siheyuan: I'm Shazhu's Neighbor

Let’s talk about it!

When things come to a head, Mrs. Zhang will feel a little remorseful, but when she gets angry again, it's a different look.

Xu Dongqing sat on the sofa and looked at Liu Lan quietly under the night.

A graceful lady, a gentleman is a good man.

There are no messy things, but just the tolerance of a young daughter-in-law, turning a blind eye to Xu Dongqing's scumbag attributes, and more just doing everything she can.

Tolerant and generous!

In Xu Dongqing's opinion, Liu Lan still has some inferiority complex in her bones. She is very grateful to Xu Dongqing for improving her family's conditions.

As for love!

Maybe, maybe not, she was just paid silently behind the scenes.

Looking at the kitchen stove.

Liu Lan's skill at stewing fish is considered to be one of the best among the courtyard houses.

Maybe it’s because the children of poor people have grown up early, or maybe they are born to be good cooks.

Outside!

The second uncle sat in the room and boasted about his past achievements. In his witty remarks, he recounted how he studied in the "high school" and got his current position as the team leader of the steel rolling mill.

On the surface, he can be regarded as a cultural person, but the third uncle in the courtyard is just a teacher who teaches children.

Talking to myself about my scholarly family background!

In fact, he is just a Yan Laoji.

As Liu Lan talked, she looked at the braised fish on the stove and kept telling Xu Dongqing stories about her childhood.

Go hunting in the mountains and make turtles in the sea!

A proper female man is very different from the girls in later generations. Xu Dongqing saw too much independence in her.

It’s not about being independent in words, it’s about practicing it.

Everything is well considered for Xu Dongqing, like a virtuous wife. In contrast, Xu Dongqing is just a child who will never grow up.

Doorway!

Dong Dong~

Xu Dongqing looked at Silly Zhu outside the house and didn't know why this guy came here. He just came out from the hand-holding game outside. Come here, do you still want to ask for a drink?

"Holly."

Silly Zhu smiled and touched the back of his head, looking honest and courteous. Behind him was a beautiful girl, none other than He Yuyu.

This girl is a realistic person, far from refined egoism, but despite her careless character, she is also a little girl like Qin Huairu secretly.

Behind his back, Shazhu’s calculations are no less than Qin Huairu’s.

Poor pretty widow?

Xu Dongqing had read the original work and couldn't tell. He couldn't figure out why she finally persuaded Sha Zhu to stay. You must know that Sha Zhu and Lou Xiao'e also have a child.

It is clear that three people can live a prosperous and warm life for the rest of their lives!

What is the motive behind this incident?

Xu Dongqing looked on coldly and nodded slightly: "Brother Zhuzhu, what are you doing here?"

Silly Zhu rubbed the back of his head nervously and glanced at He Yuyu behind him. The girl was also a little unhappy and just looked at her fingers.

Just like a mimosa.

He didn't dare to look at Xu Dongqing, perhaps because he was amazed at Xu Dongqing's family conditions, or perhaps because he was amazed at Xu Dongqing's skill. He was also an employee of the steel rolling mill like Silly Zhu.

Why is the gap between the two so big?

Xu Dongqing, smiling the whole time, looked at the two people at the door, was greeted by Liu Lan, and sat next to the briquette stove.

A cup of hot water instead.

Since a year ago, Xu Dongqing dealt with Silly Zhu, and Liu Lan ignored Silly Zhu, which gradually made this guy realize the reality.

Don't do any unrealistic fantasy here. I have been honest for a while, and I didn't dare to speak rudely to Liu Lan in the canteen of the steel rolling mill.

Although Liu Lan also despised Sha Zhu for a while in her heart, but the harmony on the surface still had to wait and see? She did not pursue the original bad things about Sha Zhu.

"Can you lend me some money? I went out today, had a big meal with my date, and bought some things. I don't have any extra money anymore. You also know that the Chinese New Year is coming the day after tomorrow."

Silly Zhu knocked and said.

Xu Dongqing murmured in her heart: I guess this guy has already been borrowed from other people in the courtyard. Unfortunately, everyone has been suffering these past few days and didn't have any extra money to lend him, so they just came here.
As for He Yuyu, it is probably just an added bonus.

After all, if such a charming young girl stands aside, if she has the heart to refuse, then she is no longer a man, and she is not afraid of offending his face.

Ahem~

"It's not impossible."

Liu Lan walked out of the kitchen, hung the scarf around her neck on the wall, took out five yuan from her pocket and slapped it on the table.

"But there is one condition."

Liu Lan has a stern face, squinting her small eyes, watching every move of Silly Zhu. She is a veteran, and her eyes are shining, and she probably has some ideas.

It’s just that Xu Dongqing doesn’t know.

"Really?"

Silly Zhu looked at the five yuan on the table and swallowed. These five yuan are enough for one person to eat for a month, so this year, they will not live a poor year in a rigid manner.

"What conditions?"

He Yuyu tugged Shazhu's arm. Since he had something to ask for, he naturally couldn't agree easily. In this case, he might be able to ask for more...

Her small movements fell in Xu Dongqing's eyes.

It feels like child’s play.

If Qin Huairu were here, she wouldn't say it outright, but would be more reserved and not give people a feeling of oppression?

"I have a younger brother who wants to learn cooking from you. What do you think? This money can be used as apprenticeship money. I won't ask for it back, so I will give it to you right then and there."

Liu Lan explained.

He is indeed a smart man. Xu Dongqing gave Liu Lan a thumbs up mentally. It is better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish. This is to find a way out for his little brother.

Cook, in this era of material scarcity, is definitely a profession that everyone envies. Basically, eight out of ten fat and big-eared people are chefs.

The remaining two are office workers.

Less exercise!

Silly Zhu was a little hesitant. If his cooking skills were in the Republic of China, how could he be considered a great chef? The boss in charge of the back kitchen wanted to sell Tan's cooking skills for five yuan.

Isn’t it a bit cheap?

Ahem~

Xu Dongqing opened her mouth and said: "Brother Zhuzi, since Sister Lan wants her brother to learn cooking from you, what are you still hesitating about? There is no such shop after passing this village. Don't you also want it in the steel rolling mill?

Will you take a disciple? Will they give you money? As long as you pay attention, if Sister Lan's younger brother can become a disciple in one year, I can give you five yuan every month, what do you think?"

Since ancient times, it has been said that money moves people's hearts!

Silly Zhu's current situation is not particularly good. If he can earn a little more money every month, Xu Dongqing is confident that he will not refuse.
