Silly Zhu's incident did not affect Li Weidong's good mood.
you are not a fish, how to know the joy of fish.
Silly Zhu is willing to be a licking dog, why do you ghosts and ghosts need to worry about him?
I'm a little tired after working all day, and I'm really too lazy to cook, so I might as well make hot pot.
There is half a kilogram of butter in the space warehouse, as well as various seasonings such as cinnamon, star anise, sanye, fennel, and grass fruits.
Close the doors and windows as usual, and sit the iron pot on the coal stove.
The operation is as fierce as a tiger, and the fragrant hot pot base is stir-fried until it is complete.
Add water, squat in front of the coal stove and use a book to fan the air inlet. When sweat breaks out on your forehead, the hot pot begins to boil.
Add the chopped mutton strips, Chinese cabbage, coriander...
Simple hot pot is made.
Picking up a piece of mutton and putting it into his mouth, the mutton was so tender and fragrant that Li Weidong almost bit off his tongue.
The only regret is that there is no sesame sauce, candied garlic, or chive flowers.
Well, if I have a chance to eat at Donglaishun, I will ask the waiter if the condiments are for sale.
Eating hot pot is comforting in the winter. Li Weidong was eating enthusiastically when the sound of a broken gong came from outside the door.
"Attention everyone, we will hold a meeting in the middle courtyard after dinner!"
It is impossible to go to a meeting. For a person who knows the results, holding a meeting is a pure waste of time.
There are only 36,000 days in a person's life. Leaving aside the ignorant childhood and the incapacitated old age, there are less than 21,600 days; and leaving aside the rest time, eating, drinking, having sex, and talking about love. The total time for love and reproduction is less than 200,000 hours. The conference takes two hours, which is a waste of time.
Might as well finish reading the book I borrowed from the library last time in the house.
There is no way, Li Weidong is so pursuing!
After eating the hot pot, the smell in the room became lighter. I opened the door to disperse the smell and took the iron pot to wash it under the faucet.
It was easy to eat but difficult to clean the pot. There was no detergent, so Li Weidong spent a lot of effort to clean the pot.
Alas, it’s better to marry Yu Li back quickly and let her take over!
After taking a look at the crowded middle courtyard, he turned around and went back to the house, ready to study.
Suddenly, there was a rapid knock on the door outside.
"Who is it?" He shouted, but no one answered, so Li Weidong could only get up and open the door.
I saw a girl with a dry figure standing in the dim sunlight.
"He Yuyu?"
The girl is He Yuyu.
The predecessor, Li Weidong, had a good relationship with Silly Zhu. When his buttocks were bare, He Yuyu would play with him behind his butt all day long.
Later, when the eldest girl grew up and learned to avoid suspicion, the two of them became estranged.
He Yuyu got engaged a while ago, and the man is a small-time police officer.
When they got engaged, Li Weidong and his aunt went to Xiaopian Police House as their natal family.
That family is all honest people and has a good financial background.
When I came back, my aunt kept mumbling that He Yuyu had married into a good family.
"It's cold outside, come in quickly. Congratulations, Yuyu, have you agreed with Xiao Zhou on when to get married?" Li Weidong let He Yuyu into the room and poured her tea.
He Yuyu held the enamel jar to warm it for a while, then there was a trace of blood on his face, and said: "Brother Wei Dong, I'm afraid this marriage won't work out."
"Why? Xiao Zhou is giving you a hard time. Let me talk to him when I have time. How dare he, a small-time policeman, behave in front of my driver?" He Yuyu is almost like a little sister to Li Weidong. After hearing the news, He was naturally furious.
"No, Zhou Zheng is very good to me, and his family is also very good to me. It's just that all his family members are from the police, and he has no other requirements for the girl's family. The only thing is that his family must be clean."
"My family is innocent. How come our family is not wealthy..."
Halfway through the words, Li Weidong understood that He Yuyu was referring to Silly Zhu stealing the chicken.
Reputation is very important these days, and Tumo Xingzi can drown people.
Why is Yi Zhonghai able to take charge in the courtyard? Just because he has a good reputation.
If there is a thief in someone's family, everyone in the family will be implicated, and their marriages, children's schooling and work will be in trouble.
In the original work, Sha Zhu "stole" an old hen. Although he was suppressed by Yi Zhonghai, he did not report it to the police station.
From then on, he also got a bad reputation as a chicken thief. The man was from the police, so he definitely couldn't hide it.
I don’t know how He Yuyu got through the difficulties. It wouldn’t be easy, otherwise she wouldn’t rarely return to the courtyard after getting married.
"My brother is not a thief, but no matter how hard I press him, he just keeps drinking and doesn't talk. What should I do?" After a while, big tears had already overflowed from He Yuyu's eyes.
"You have the best relationship with my brother. Can you help me persuade him?"
At this time, Li Weidong also figured out that Shazhu would have reached a dead end.
The reason why Silly Zhu admitted to stealing the chicken was not entirely because he wanted to lick Qin Huairu, but to a large extent because he could not explain the origin of the chicken in the pot.
Think about it, who buys a chicken without a head or wings during the holidays?
This was clearly brought from the kitchen.
Compared with the crime of stealing chickens, the crime of stealing public property is more serious.
As long as Silly Zhu is not stupid, he will get off the donkey and admit that he stole the chicken, and by the way, he can gain Qin Huairu's favor.
Xu Damao received compensation, the Jia family escaped, Silly Zhu also avoided being sent to the police station, and the courtyard could return to its former peace. This was a happy event for everyone.
Except for He Yuyu, she had to face the strange looks from her husband's family.
In the end, it was this innocent girl who silently took on everything.
Isn’t this a situation where evil people are in a good mood and good people suffer.
As a time traveler, if Li Weidong can no longer help the little sister next door, his life will be in vain.
"Yu Yu, do you believe me?"
"Yes." Seeing that Li Weidong was willing to help, He Yuyu quickly wiped away his tears with his sleeves and nodded heavily.
Li Weidong waved and asked He Yuyu to come over, whispering in her ear: "You will be like this later..."
When He Yuyu heard the last part, his eyes widened suddenly: "Is this impossible? How could a good person like Sister Xiao Qin do such a thing?"
Li Weidong said: "Which do you think Qin Huairu cares about more, Shazhu's reputation or the Jia family's reputation?"
He Yuyu still wanted to refute, but he was stunned for a long time after hearing the words, shook his head with a wry smile and said: "Unexpectedly, I misjudged her and thought she was sincerely helping our family."
Li Weidong took out a handful of toffee from his pocket and stuffed it into He Yuyu's hand.
"Remember, if you want to save yourself, you have to rely on yourself!"
He Yuyu nodded heavily, turned around and ran outside.
Since it was getting late, Li Weidong also put on a thick cotton-padded jacket, closed the door, and went to attend the conference.
night.
Thousands of lights gradually light up in the capital, and each one represents a different life.
It was now the depth of winter, the ground had thawed, and there was a crisp sound when you stepped on it.
When we arrived at the middle courtyard, people were already crowding under the old camphor tree.
In the center of the crowd, there was an Eight Immortals table with an enamel jar saying "Serve the People" on the table.
The three uncles sat on the Grand Master's chair in a humanlike manner, resembling the patriarchs of the feudal era.
"Damn it! What are you doing? Whose little wife stole someone, and there was such a big fight?"
Li Weidong's words caused a burst of laughter. The residents of the courtyard had long been tired of holding meetings and were more willing to take it as a joke.
