Siheyuan: Start as a truck driver

No words in the middle of the night, mid-migration.

The next day, early in the morning, just after dawn, Wang Weidong was awakened by the sound of firecrackers.

He carefully sat up and was about to get dressed, when his arm was hugged by a slender arm.

Guan Tingting opened her eyes and said sleepily: "Brother Hong Chang, it's hard to have a Sunday, why don't you take a little rest."

Wang Weidong braved the cold wind to rush back to the small courtyard in the middle of the night last night, which really touched Guan Tingting.

Moved by her, she performed to her best, and the two of them fell into a deep sleep from exhaustion until early in the morning.

Seeing Wang Weidong getting up so early at this time, Guan Tingting was worried that he had not had a good rest.

Wang Weidong has gone through several weeks of fighting, and his physical strength has long been far beyond that of ordinary people. Although he went through two fierce battles in one night, he did not feel tired at all.

"It's okay. Yan Jiecheng is getting married today. As the grand master of the courtyard, I should be present. You can sleep a little longer."

"Yeah." Guan Tingting was exhausted and tired, and she yawned.

She was about to fall asleep hazily, and seemed to think of something again. She tried to open her eyes, looked at Wang Weidong's back and said: "Brother Hong Chang, I will get up and help you make breakfast after I sleep for a while. Well, the breakfast must be rich."

a little."

"Be more sumptuous? Yan Bugui is hosting a banquet today, so he will naturally have a big meal. Is there any need to waste it?" Wang Weidong was stunned for a moment.

Guan Tingting laughed when she heard this and said, "Are you really stupid or are you pretending to be stupid? Would a stingy person like Yan Bugui be willing to host a sumptuous banquet?"

Wang Weidong frowned after hearing these words. Yan Bugui is a little stingy, but today is Yan Jiecheng's big day. He shouldn't make the Yan family a laughing stock just to save a little money, right?

After thinking about it, Wang Weidong nodded, lest Yan Bugui would be really shameless.

"Okay, you can sleep a little longer and then get up and cook." Wang Weidong ordered.

"Yeah." Guan Tingting yawned, fell back on the bed, and fell asleep.

...

It was still early, it was gray outside, and there was a waning moon hanging in the sky.

When Wang Weidong came to the entrance of the courtyard, he saw Shazhu, Yan Jiedi, Yan Bugui, Qin Huairu, and the young people from the courtyard waiting outside the courtyard.

They stood on tiptoe, stretched their necks and looked into the distance, as if waiting for Yan Jiecheng to return with his new wife.

Xu Damao also yawned and walked out at this time, his face was still full of drunkenness.

Seeing Wang Weidong, Xu Damao smiled apologetically: "Master, I'm really sorry. We agreed last night that I would entertain you, but I got drunk first."

Wang Weidong looked over Xu Damao's shoulder, glanced at Qin Jingru behind him, and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, I had a great time last night."

"Really?" Xu Damao turned his head and looked at Qin Jingru with admiration: "Daughter-in-law, thank you."

"Ha, that's what I should do! After all, the uncle has helped our family so much." Qin Jingru raised her lips slightly, her dark eyes flowing with spring water, and subconsciously cast a wink at Wang Weidong.

Thinking of Wang Weidong's instructions, she trembled and quickly lowered her head, her expression looking very strange.

When Xu Damao saw Qin Jingru's look, he thought she was embarrassed, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, Qin Jingru is really a simple rural girl.

The two chatted for a while, and then the sound of wheels scraping against the ground came from the distance.

In the light mist, Yan Jiecheng's figure riding a bicycle gradually emerged.

The driver and Yan Jiecheng had big red flowers hanging on their chests. Sitting in the back seat of the car was a girl wearing an old tawny military uniform.

When Wang Weidong saw clearly what Huang Xiaocui was wearing, he couldn't help but give her a thumbs up in his heart.

Today, Huang Xiaocui is dressed quite conservatively. She is wearing an old military uniform that has been washed white, and a pair of black cotton mulberry-soled shoes. Her hair is simply tied back by a red rope, and she has no makeup on her face.

From a distance, she looks like a simple female worker.

Behind Yan Jiecheng's car, there were two other cars, ridden by Yan Jiefang and Yan Jiekuang respectively.

Their car carried quilts, hot water bottles, and spittoons. What caught Wang Weidong's attention was that Yan Jiekuang's car actually carried a radio box in the back.

Did Yan Laoji buy a radio for Yan Jiecheng?

When he saw it clearly, Wang Weidong burst into laughter. The radio box was broken and had childish drawings drawn with pencil on it.

Obviously, this radio box is quite old.

In order to show the strong financial power of the Yan family, Yan Bugui took him out of the house again.

The last time Yan Bugui bought a radio was probably seven or eight years ago.

The Yan family is the only one who can preserve the radio box so well.

.....

"Hurry up, the new wife is here, hurry up and let the fireworks go."

Si Zhu, who was in charge of setting off the firecrackers, lit a firecracker and threw it into the air.

Amidst the crackling sound of firecrackers, Yan Jiecheng slowly stopped his bicycle.

Huang Xiaocui got off the back seat of the bicycle gracefully, with her face flushed and her head lowered, just like a young girl getting married for the first time.

According to the rules of the courtyard, before the new daughter-in-law enters the gate, the groom must introduce the residents of the courtyard to the new daughter-in-law.

"This is Shazhu, an eighth-level chef."

"This is Xu Damao, the film projectionist at the steel rolling mill."

"This is Liu Haizhong, a seventh-level fitter."

"This is the eldest man of our courtyard, Liu Hongchang, the director of Lanhua Automobile Factory."

....

The director of Lanhua Automobile Factory? Huang Xiaocui, who had always lowered his head and pretended to be shy, couldn't help but raise his head and looked at Wang Weidong curiously.

This man has a knife-like face, thick eyebrows, a straight nose, and thick lips, which makes him the handsomest man in the Four-Nine City.

What made Huang Xiaocui even more excited was that this man was wearing a high-end woolen tunic suit and shiny leather shoes.

Although the watch on her wrist is looming, Huang Xiaocui can accurately call out the name: Rolex 6694.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The light brown cowhide strap, wedge-shaped three-dimensional scale, sharp sword-shaped hands and blue steel second hand, and Oyster steel case all reveal its identity.

Rolex did not enter the mainland in this era and could only be purchased from abroad or from Hong Kong cities. Each one was extremely precious.

Rolex 6694 is the finest among Rolexes, and only some people with great powers can get it.

Liu Guangde was once so greedy that he spent a huge amount of money but failed to get it. He has been thinking about it ever since.

As Liu Guangde’s pillow, Huang Xiaocui is naturally familiar with Rolex 6694.

There is a big factory director who is less than thirty years old, and there is such a person in the courtyard!

Huang Xiaocui's eyes wandered, not knowing what she was thinking.

Yan Jiecheng on the side saw Huang Xiaocui's demented expression and quickly touched her with his elbow: "Xiaocui, Xiaocui, please say hello to Factory Director Liu quickly."

Huang Xiaocui woke up with a start, reached out and brushed the hair around her ears, and said with a shy look: "Director Liu, my name is Huang Xiaocui, and I am Yan Jiecheng's wife. I hope you can take good care of me in the courtyard from now on."

This was said calmly, but paired with the peculiar tone, it always gave people an ambiguous feeling.

Especially between her frown and smile, she can make people feel all kinds of charm.

Wang Weidong felt that he had underestimated Huang Xiaocui and dared to flirt with other men on such an important occasion.

This woman is not simple.

"You're welcome." Wang Weidong replied lightly and stood aside.

He doesn't want to have anything to do with this kind of woman right now.

Huang Xiaocui seemed to be aware of Wang Weidong's coldness, but she didn't care.

There are still many days to come!

"Xie Cheng, let's go into the courtyard."

After getting to know all the residents of the courtyard, Yan Jiecheng took Huang Xiaocui's hand and entered the Yan family's house.

The residents who were watching had enough of the excitement and started to go back to prepare breakfast. Of course, a simple breakfast would be enough. They wanted to save their stomachs for a big meal at noon.

Wang Weidong also walked towards the small courtyard. After taking only two steps, he saw a thin young man running towards him on a bicycle.

"Comrade, help me..." The young man shouted loudly from a distance.

"What's wrong?" Wang Weidong noticed something was wrong from his panicked tone.

"The handlebars of the bicycle can't be turned, and the brakes are broken. Please help me stop..."

As the young man spoke, he rushed over on his bicycle.

At this time, his face was already a little pale, and the wall was behind Wang Weidong.

Today, Wang Weidong and him, one of them must fall.

Seeing the bicycle approaching at lightning speed, Wang Weidong did not panic, turned slightly sideways, dodged the bicycle, and grabbed the back seat of the bicycle.

Then he squatted down hard and stood firmly on the ground with both feet.

The fast-moving bicycle was actually firmly controlled by him.

Nan Yi on the bicycle had already closed his eyes and was about to compete with the wall. Seeing this, he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

He jumped off his bicycle and walked to Wang Weidong with his limp legs.

"Comrade, thank you so much. If it weren't for you, I would definitely have been injured this time."

Nan Yi has no confidence at all in fighting against the wall.

Wang Weidong smiled and said: "The handlebar is broken and the brakes are out of order. How dare you ride a bicycle like this on the street?"

The capital city of this era was still very prosperous, and there was a constant flow of people on the streets.

Nan Yi also knew this, and explained with a smile: "I helped a customer cook yesterday. It was already dark when I got home. I accidentally fell into a ditch and broke my bicycle. I originally wanted to repair the bicycle today, but later

Then I remembered that I had to come to the Yan family to cook, so in order not to delay the Yan family's banquet, I had no choice but to take the risk and hit the road."

What a dedicated cook.

Wang Weidong walked to the bicycle and took a look at it. He clamped his legs on the bicycle's wheels, grabbed the handlebars and twisted it hard.

"Come on, try it."

Nan Yi gently turned the handle of the car and found that the car could turn flexibly again, and his eyes widened immediately.

"You, how did you do that?"

"...When the handlebars fell, the twisting range exceeded the preset range, causing the handlebars to get stuck in the limit slots. This is a small problem that anyone who rides a bicycle regularly will fix."

"..." Nan Yi felt that Wang Weidong was calling him stupid, but unfortunately there was no evidence.

Wang Weidong walked around the bicycle and found that the brakes on the bicycle failed because the brake line was broken.

He picked up the broken gate wire and said, "There is one in the car repair shop next to this thing. You can go and replace it. It won't cost more than fifty cents."

"Thank you, thank you..." Seeing Wang Weidong turning to leave, Nan Yi quickly took two steps and blocked Wang Weidong Road.

"Comrade, my name is Nan Yi, and I am a cook at the steel rolling mill. Thank you for helping me today. If you need help with anything in the future, you can come to me directly in the canteen of the steel rolling mill. My cooking skills are inherited from my family.

As good as a chef in a big restaurant."

As he said that, Nan Yi's face turned red and he hesitated: "Don't worry, I will definitely give you a discount when the time comes."

Oh, this guy is trying to do business with his savior, how embarrassing his life must be.

There is no shortage of good cooks around Wang Weidong. Guan Tingting and Yang Maixiang are both good at cooking, especially Guan Tingting who has specially studied for him.

He shook his head and was about to leave when he suddenly remembered something. He stopped and turned to look at Nan Yi: "What did you say your name was?"

"Nanyi! Nan in the south, Yi in the Yijing." Nanyi answered honestly.

Nanyi! Good guy, there are still characters in "We Are Iron Rice or Steel" in this world.

What a hodgepodge.

In the first episode, Wang Weidong had dealt with Nan Yi, but at that time Nan Yi was not married yet and was at a high-spirited age.

Now after Nan Yi married Liang Ladi, he not only had to take care of Liang Ladi's children, but also had his own children. In addition, his background was not good. In order to raise his children, he went through all kinds of hardships.

He was aware of the ups and downs of the world. He looked older than ordinary people, so Wang Weidong didn't recognize him for a while.

Wang Weidong still has a good impression of Nanyi.

Nanyi did not discriminate against Damao and the others because they were the sons of Liang Ladi's ex-husband.

The success of Liang Ladi's children was inseparable from Nan Yi's efforts.

"Well, you're fine." Wang Weidong secretly remembered Nan Yi's name in his heart and turned back to the courtyard.

"I am fine?"

Nan Yi was a little confused.

At this moment, Yan Bugui came out of the courtyard and ran over when he saw Nan Yi.

"Master Nan, why are you standing still? We have prepared the dishes and are waiting for you, the chef."

"Ah, good..."

Nan Yi followed Yan Bugui into the courtyard.

At this time, two pots and stoves had been set up at the door of Yan's house. Yan Jiedi and Yan Jiekuang were sitting in front of the pots and stoves to light the fire.

The third aunt and Yan Jiefang squatted in front of the big basin to wash vegetables.

Chinese cabbage, Chinese cabbage, white radish, carrot... My goodness, the Yan family is really stingy.

Nan Yi cursed a few words, put the guy on the chopping board, and started preparing for the banquet.

The first step in preparing a banquet is to ask the host what dishes he wants.

"Teacher Yan, how many dishes do you plan to order and what are they? I can prepare the seasonings." Nan Yi asked professionally.

"Oh, you can figure it out." Yan Bugui replied in a very unprofessional manner.

Let's see. What does it mean? Nan Yi is a little confused.

He took Yan Bugui's arm and said, "Teacher Yan, what do you mean?"

Yan Bugui pointed to the green vegetables and said, "These are the ingredients for today's lunch. See what you can make!"
