The winter in Sijiucheng in 1963,
The cold wind is so fierce that even when someone goes out to relieve themselves, they can't help but shiver.
On this day, Lu Yan got off work from the research institute and happened to buy a chicken at the vegetable market to stew.
After all, it’s winter, so I have to give the children some supplements, right?
He didn't care about food, but Luo Jing and Luo Ling were still growing.
Over the past year, Lu Yan had made a lot of delicious food, so the two brothers and sister "reluctantly" filled the original vacancy.
If the child is unable to recuperate later, then Lu Yan will probably have to go back to his old job of carrying people up the mountain and digging holes and filling soil!
Since receiving "physics" education, Lu Yan feels that the people in this courtyard still understand what it means to be a man who knows the current affairs.
After all, not everyone who is mentally retarded can withstand Lu Yan's armor-breaking hammer.
Back in the yard, Lu Yan happened to see Sha Zhu coming back with the lunch box.
The moment he saw Lu Yan, Shazhu quickly hid aside with a guilty conscience, turning his back to him.
Seeing this scene, Lu Yan stepped forward and kicked him: "What a coward, like a thief!"
After being kicked, Silly Zhu glanced at Lu Yan and did not dare to speak.
Seeing that he still dared to stare at him, Lu Yan raised his hands and said, "What are you looking at? Do you want to be beaten?"
"No, I just want to see if your shoes are dirty!"
After hearing Lu Yan's words, Shazhu quickly explained,
Over the past year, he has also tried to resist, but it was useless. The title of the God of War in the Siheyuan was completely gone.
Lu Yan firmly stepped on him,
"Build it!"
Silly Zhu looked at him angrily, while Lu Yan walked into the yard swaggeringly,
When he saw Lu Yan appear, Yan Bugui hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Hey, Xiao Lu is buying chickens!"
"A couple of games?"
Seeing Yan Bugui step forward, Lu Yan looked at him playfully,
But after listening to Lu Yan's words, Yan Bugui turned around and said, "No, no, I don't have enough food for the winter! I don't dare to play chess with you!"
Watching Yan Bugui leave, Lu Yan sighed helplessly.
His chess skills are simply unbeatable!
Yan Bugui: I'm a shameless person. If I can't do it, I'll threaten you with a hammer. How can I be a scholar? It is simply insulting to gentlemen!
When we came to the house, a fire had already been lit and it was extremely warm.
Seeing Luo Ling doing her homework, Lu Yan stepped forward and said, "Well, not bad, the handwriting is quite good!"
"Master, if you only praise my words, am I doing something wrong?"
Raising her head curiously, Luo Ling asked in surprise,
"I even praised your beautiful handwriting, so don't expect so much, little one!"
Reaching out to rub Luo Ling's head, Lu Yan laughed.
When Luo Yan said this, Luo Ling pouted aggrievedly and said, "Ah, I wrote them all wrong, so what should I do?"
"It doesn't matter, erase it and rewrite it!"
After comforting Luo Ling, Lu Yan asked, "Where is my brother?"
"Brother went out to buy soy sauce and will be back soon!"
While explaining to Lu Yan, Luo Ling looked at the chicken and said, "Do you want to eat chicken today? Master!"
"Yes, let's eat chicken, Master is cooking!"
Speaking with a smile, Lu Yan pointed out the mistakes in Luo Ling's homework and left.
Not long after, when Luo Jing came back, he immediately placed the soy sauce and said, "Master, I saw Bangge and the others roasting chicken behind the pipe in the open space!"
"Oh, is it?"
Hearing Luo Jing's words, Lu Yan couldn't help but become curious.
With the Jia family’s situation, how can they have money to buy chicken? Unless Silhu was "smooth" from the factory, it would be absolutely impossible.
But even if you are a fool, you can't catch a chicken. That's not against the rules, it's against the law.
Thinking of the people raising chickens in the yard, Lu Yan immediately understood what was going on. Didn't this happen to Xu Damao? How interesting!
In order to watch the show, Lu Yan didn't pay much attention.
After all, he would have to prepare peanuts and melon seeds later. How could he not bring these things to the theater?
Sure enough, when Xu Damao came back, he immediately discovered that his chicken had been stolen.
He immediately searched the yard, and after smelling the fragrance, he immediately came to Shazhu's house and roared: "Sinzhu, you can't steal my chicken if you are greedy, right?"
"Why do you mean I stole your chicken? You don't have eyes. You're just doing nothing if the chicken is gone. Lu Yan is still making chicken soup in the front yard? Why don't you go find him!"
Hearing Xu Damao's words, Shazhu quickly retorted,
"Lu Yan knows how to steal chicken? If he wants to eat it, I can give it to him myself. Do you think everyone is the same as you?"
He looked at Silly Zhu angrily. Xu Damao was not stupid enough to trouble Lu Yan.
I work in an archaeological research institute and my monthly salary is 70 yuan. What’s the point of buying a chicken?
Besides, with his status, he is destined not to be able to do such a thing!
Lu Yan: Hey, after you said that, I feel like I’m pretty decent!
"No, you guys are just looking at people buying the discs, right? Why did I steal it!"
Looking at Xu Damao angrily, Shazhu also picked up the hook unhappily.
"What, what? What are you arguing about?"
Just when the two sides were arguing, the second uncle Liu Haizhong came in.
Seeing this scene, he immediately stepped forward and said, "Okay, Silly Zhu, the chicken soup is pretty good!"
"Second uncle, you came just in time. Silly Zhu stole my chicken to eat. This is not allowed. We must hold a hospital-wide meeting!"
Shouting, Xu Damao directly pushed Liu Haizhong up.
Seeing what Xu Damao said, Liu Haizhong was also addicted to food and said quickly: "That's right, we are holding a hospital-wide meeting. We can't let any thieves happen here!"
Just as the second uncle and Xu Damao were crowding around the yard, Lou Xiao'e came to Lu Yan's house.
Looking at the three people who were eating, he immediately said: "Are you eating, Brother Lu?"
"Xiao'e? You're here just in time, let's have some together!"
With that said, Lu Yan brought bowls and chopsticks to Lou Xiao'e.
"Aunt Lou, eat some!"
Stepping forward to invite Lou Xiao'e, Luo Jing and Luo Ling couldn't help but drag her.
Because in the entire courtyard, apart from Lu Yan, the only one who had shown kindness to them was Lou Xiao'e!
This silly and sweet girl should not be among this group of evil people!
"I!"
After delaying, Lou Xiao'e planned to refuse, but Lu Yan looked at her and said, "No face?"
"I eat!"
Embarrassedly picking up the bowl and chopsticks, Lou Xiao'e had already forgotten about Xu Damao outside when she took the first bite.
When she was full, she found that her belly was bulging, and then she said awkwardly: "That!"
"Aunt Lou, is Master's cooking delicious?"
Looking at Lou Xiao'e happily, Luo Jing laughed.
At this moment, Xu Damao came. Seeing this scene, he was about to get angry, but he saw Lu Yan staring at him,
He immediately said with a sneer on his face: "Hey, Xiao'e, you said you were eating here! Brother Lu, there is a meeting in the yard. Do you want to come and take a look?"
"Okay, let's take a look?"
Hearing what Xu Damao said, Lu Yan tidied up a little and walked out carrying the bench.
When he arrived, people in the courtyard dispersed, leaving a good spot for Lu Yan.
Holding the melon seeds in his hand and handing them to Lou Xiao'e, Lu Yan looked up and said, "Hurry up, it's freezing at night!"
"Now that everyone is here, today we will talk about the loss of Xu Damao's chickens."
Just as Liu Haizhong was talking back and forth on the wheel, Lu Yan couldn't help but said: "Stop that, silly Zhu, I'll ask if you stole the chicken!"
"no!"
Putting his hands in his sleeves, Shazhu heard Lu Yan's words and quickly retorted,
"Okay, you didn't steal the chicken, then it must be someone from the yard. Call the police! An old country hen costs at least five yuan. I've finished my words. Who is in favor and who is against?"
Turning to look at everyone, Lu Yan raised his eyebrows and asked, as if, who dares not to agree to give it a try!
