The Happy Life of Xu Damao in Siheyuan

After returning to the courtyard, Xu Damao first went to the third uncle's house.

When it comes to introducing things like blind dates, Ran Qiuye is too young, does not follow the rules, and does not have enough weight. In the final analysis, the third uncle is the most suitable. Who makes him the oldest teacher of Hongxing Primary School?

"Is the third uncle at home?"

As soon as Xu Damao opened his mouth, the third aunt immediately opened the door and greeted him with a smile: "The third uncle hasn't come back yet. Damao, if you have anything to do with him, you can tell me. I'll tell him later!"

"It's a little personal matter. Please ask him to come forward and arrange a marriage for my friend. I'll set up a blind date banquet and eat it at your place. You can tell him later."

When the third aunt heard this, her eyes narrowed with joy, and she quickly said: "Oh, no problem! I'll tell him to go later!"

No wonder the child's father complimented Xu Damao so much. He always came to see him and it was good for him. This time he held a sumptuous blind date banquet at his house with great fanfare. Wouldn't all the leftovers be his family's disposal?

That's a good thing.

Here Yan Jiecheng heard the noise, stuck out his head, struggled and hesitated again and again, and sneakily touched the wall to come out, as if he was afraid of being seen, and stopped Xu Damao in the corridor of the middle courtyard.

Xu Damao knew it well, but he pretended to be confused on the surface: "Yan Jiecheng, what are you..."

"Um... Director Xu." Yan Jiecheng rubbed his hands nervously with a flattering smile on his face, "Didn't you promise us before, this..."

Xu Damao suddenly realized: "Oh, you are talking about this Feige brand bicycle. Don't worry, I keep my word!"

Yan Jiecheng breathed a sigh of relief and said happily: "Then when is it convenient for you, this..."

"Jie Cheng, as you know, I have recently become a director and have a lot of work and social activities. I still need this to keep myself going. Let's do this. When I finish working for a while, I will come over to you. I will definitely, definitely!"

Xu Damao casually used the drag technique to make Yan Jie Cheng stunned. Yan Jie Cheng didn't know how to respond, so he could only look at Xu Damao's back in a flattering manner: "Director Xu, um... I'm waiting for your news.

.”

It happened that Yu Li had just come back from the front yard and came over to Yan Jiecheng and said, "Who were you saying hello just now?"

"Xu Damao!" Yan Jiecheng said beamingly, "How about I say that Director Xu is so open-minded in his work? People say he has been busy with social activities recently and can't spare any time. When he is done, he will come and sell the flying pigeons to us in person!"

When Yu Li heard this, her mood exploded and she couldn't help but curse Yan Jiecheng in her heart.

Why is this guy so useless? Is his head rusty? Can't you tell that this is what Xu Damao said on purpose? Do you understand the delaying tactic?

So if Xu Damao is never finished, will they have to wait forever?

She was so angry that she didn't know what to say. She thought to herself, "Who asked you to come over and join in the fun? You might have offended Xu Damao. She had said a lot of nice things in the past two days. She specially bypassed Haitang and secretly counted the money twice for Xu Damao.

This allowed Xu Damao to soften his words a little.

Just when it was about to happen, who would have thought that this pig teammate would pop out.

"Um...daughter-in-law, did I do something wrong?"

Yan Jiecheng looked at Yu Li's increasingly unkind eyes, swallowed his saliva in a panic, and became restless.

Yu Li gritted her teeth and said: "You did a good job, you did a good job! Very good!!"

"Daughter-in-law, what are you doing?"

"Go to No. 1!" Yu Li left angrily without looking back.

"Huh? Isn't the public toilet over there?"

Yan Jiecheng scratched his head stupidly, thinking to himself that this woman's temper could change at any time. Could it be that her aunt is here? Forget it, I can't afford to offend her!

When Xu Damao passed by the middle courtyard, Sha Zhu hadn't come back yet. He saw He Yuyu sitting on the steps, making a pot of plant ash and smearing it with mud. He was wearing pigskin gloves to pickle preserved eggs in a traditional way. Of course, he chose to use

It's eggs. It's good to get eggs these days. No one cares whether they are duck eggs or chicken eggs.

"Hey, the rain is making the eggs loose. Shazhu brought them back to you, right?"

He Yuyu rolled his eyes angrily. He didn't want to talk to Xu Damao at first, but then he thought about it. The eggs and pork liver were sent by Xu Damao as compensation, so it couldn't be justified without saying hello.

At that moment, he just replied in a dull voice: "My brother told me, thank you for the pork liver."

She didn't talk about the eggs, because in her opinion, this pound of eggs was a reasonable compensation for her sacrifice a few days ago, and there was no need to say thank you.

Xu Damao didn't say much, and didn't even mention the matter of introducing Wen Li to the blind date. Now He Yuyu was a standard second- and fifth-year-old boy. If he told her, Qin Huairu would basically get the letter. What he wanted was to give Qin Huai

It's like a sudden attack, the kind that kills with one blow.

In the middle courtyard, Huaihua and Xiaodang looked at Xu Damao longingly, their faces full of expectation and pitiful looks.

Xu Damao insidiously only threw a piece of White Rabbit toffee to spread positive energy every day.

"I caught this, you can't take it away from Sophora japonica!" "My sister ate half an egg from Sophora japonica the day before yesterday, so Sophora japonica wants to eat candy this time!"

Xu Damao had just returned to the house when Yu Li followed him through the door. Xu Damao just smiled knowingly and winked at her. Yu Li looked around and closed the door nervously, then helped Xu Damao light the charcoal fire.

, the room suddenly became warm.

"Director Xu, I just said some nonsense, don't take it to heart..." Yu Li apologized quickly and carefully observed Xu Damao's face.

There is no reason not to knock on this blackmail that is delivered to your door.

"If it weren't for your sake, I would have fallen out just now. Is he worthy of talking to me?" Xu Damao said with an unhappy expression, "It makes me very angry now!"

Yu Li looked at the pile of change that Xu Damao spread out on the table. There were cents, one yuan, and many scattered pennies. Yu Li wanted to please, so she knelt on the ground obediently and counted the money seriously:

"Two cents, one cent three, two cents seven..."

In the middle of the process, because I was not very good at arithmetic, I hesitated and counted several times and got the wrong number.

But it was much better than before, and in the end, the change in Xu Damao's pocket was calculated to be thirteen yuan and twenty-five cents.

"good."

Xu Damao collected his change in a refreshing mood. He didn't expect that he still had so much pocket money, and he felt much calmer now.

Yu Li took the opportunity to compliment: "Director Xu, now that you have calmed down, can we have a good talk about the Feige bicycle? Don't use your busy schedule as an excuse."

Xu Damao said generously: "Don't worry, according to our previous agreement, for one hundred and ninety yuan, you can take the car away now."

Yu Li was overjoyed when she heard this, took the money from her pocket, and said excitedly: "Great, let's trade now..."

"But..." Xu Damao protracted his voice and poured a basin of cold water on Yu Li, "But I can't sell you the electric tube together."

Yu Li smiled and thought something was wrong in her heart. She quickly said: "Why can't we sell them together? They are all in one piece anyway. If they are dismantled, it will affect the appearance."

Xu Damao didn't accept this trick and said calmly: "Your father-in-law spent one hundred and ninety yuan to buy the permanent one, and he didn't bring a friction tube. Why do you have to give it as a package when it comes to you?"

"Don't tell me that you don't know the value of friction tubes. Just second-hand ones start at 30 yuan. If you want, you can. I won't ask for more. Just add 30 yuan."

"This..." Yu Li suddenly felt a little embarrassed. She really liked the shape and appearance of Feige Bicycle, and her expectations for the motorcycle tubes had reached their peak. If the motorcycle tubes were removed, how could she be worthy of her efforts these days?

What about the hardships?

But if she was asked to pay another fifty yuan, where would she get so much money?

Before they were separated, their monthly pocket money was only five yuan per person. All their wages were turned over to the third uncle. The one hundred and ninety yuan was borrowed from their parents' family with interest. The third uncle's side was ten yuan.

I gritted my teeth and borrowed more than ten yuan at a certain interest rate.

Xu Damao smiled playfully: "You can borrow money from me and make an IOU for 30 yuan, without any interest."

When Yu Li heard this, her eyes suddenly lit up. She had to say that Xu Damao's proposal made her heart move.

Anyway, when this Feige bicycle was resold, with a price difference of 500 yuan, could it be possible that Xu Damao's IOU could not be repaid? Not to mention that there was no interest!

"No problem, I'll write you an IOU right now!"
