"Hey, here comes the pot of meat!"
Silly Zhu Pidianpian brought a large plate of pot-roasted meat into the house, and even made a half-circle to his eldest cousin. He put the dish in front of his cousin with a smile on his face, and apologized: "Comrade Fengchun, I am People are just mouth-talking, Sir, you don’t care about the faults of others, just take care of them."
"Do I really care about you?"
The eldest cousin's almond-shaped eyes widened. She slammed the chopsticks she just picked up on the table and said with lingering anger: "I tell you this is not over yet."
"Brother Zhuzi." Ni Yinghong was afraid that the two men would fight again, so she quickly stood up and pulled Shazhu aside and said to him: "My cousin has a firecracker temper. No one can stop the fire when it breaks out, but it disappears quickly. , you don’t need to pay attention to her, she will calm down after a while.”
"Hey, you said this was a big deal, so I'll leave first." Silly Zhu scratched his head and had to roll back to the main room in dejection.
After he left, Ni Yinghong returned to her seat, gave her eldest cousin a piece of pot-roasted pork with a smile, and at the same time advised: "Okay, cousin, eat your food quickly, Silly Zhu is such a talker, don't follow suit." He cares..."
"That's right, why are you arguing with that guy? Anyone who has not had much contact with me knows that he is a fool." The second aunt also persuaded him, and then picked up a golden piece of hotpot meat stuffing. After putting it in her mouth, her eyes lit up and she said to the people at the table, "Hey, this pot of pork is pretty good. It's sour and sweet, crispy and fragrant. Try it now."
Women, most of them like this kind of sweet and sour food.
After hearing this, other people also took a piece and tasted it, and they all praised it.
“It’s so delicious, better than anything I’ve eaten in the Northeast.”
"It feels a bit like charred pork strips, but the taste is different."
"I like this, it's better than the charred pork strips."
…
When the eldest cousin saw this, she couldn't help but pick up her chopsticks and pick up the meat slices in the bowl. After taking a bite, a smile appeared on her face: "It's very delicious. It's better than what my mother makes. That bastard Duzi is not a very good person, but cooking is just that."
Ni Yinghong saw that her expression finally cleared up, she breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly gave her another piece.
The atmosphere inside and outside the house became harmonious again.
The time soon came to 3:30, and the women who had finished eating early were sitting in the small courtyard chatting, and they were all very enthusiastic about making plans for the few fields that had been ruined during the move.
Some people say to grow leeks and cabbage, others say to grow radishes.
After all, it is already the end of August, the long summer is about to pass, and this ancient city is about to usher in the poetic late autumn.
Vegetables that mature too late cannot be harvested even if they are planted.
Ni Yinghong blinked her big eyes and looked at the short and pitiful field ridges. She wanted to plant everything, but she dared not plant anything for fear of wasting the seeds.
At this time, the men finally finished their drinks. Chu Heng, who was still slightly drunk, raised his hand and shouted to Miss Ni: "Daughter-in-law, clean up and make a few pots of tea to sober up everyone."
"coming."
The women who had been idle for a long time got up. Some came to the wine table to clean up the dishes that were cleaner than dogs licked, while others went to boil water to make tea with Ni Yinghong.
At almost four o'clock, the men and women who had finished drinking tea and cleaning up the mess left one after another.
Silly Zhu waited for his eldest cousin to leave for more than ten minutes before leaving.
He is afraid of being blocked...
What a clever guy!
After Chu Heng sent away most of the guests, he led Du San and others to send back the borrowed tables, chairs and benches, and then got on the car and went to the unit for handover.
Ni Yinghong was left at home by him.
After all, it's quite a distance from Xiaolihua Hutong to Sanliangdian, so there's no need for both of us to go through it together, right?
He has always been a good man who loves his wife.
After driving in a hurry, Chu Heng arrived at Sanliangdian in less than twenty minutes.
As soon as he entered the room, he quickly took out the fruit candy from his bag and shared it with everyone.
The joy of moving to a new house should always bring some happiness to others.
He Daesheng Heng was usually generous, so naturally he couldn't be stingy at this time.
Otherwise, wouldn't he lose his reputation as a prodigal?
"Congratulations, Xiao Chu." Aunt Sun happily put the candy in her pocket and said, "How is living in the new yard?"
"That's for sure. Not only is it spacious, but no one will bother you." Chu Heng grabbed another handful of candies and gave them to her. His yard was collected by Aunt Sun with great effort. We can't forget to dig for water. Isn’t he from the well?
"That's enough, that's enough. What are you doing with so much?"
Aunt Sun pushed her aside and opened her trouser pocket so that Chu Heng could put his hand in more easily.
"You have many children at home, take some more to sweeten your mouth."
Chu Heng stuffed the candy in politely, then chatted with others for a while before returning to the office.
After sitting in the office for a while, I saw that it was still a while before I got off work.
The thief muttered for a moment and then ran out of the shop, got on his car and went straight to the department store where Guo Kai worked.
When he arrived at the place, he went to the fabric counter with a clear purpose and bought a very long roll of red silk for nine yuan and eighty-five cents.
Immediately, Chu Heng happily carried the silk and left the department store with a cheesy smile.
When he returned to the grain store, it was almost time to get off work.
After waiting for a while, Aunt Han walked into the room swaying her arms, completed the handover with him at lightning speed, and left again swaying her arms.
After Chu Heng put the account books away, he ran out in a hurry.
When he came outside the grain store, he looked up at the red sun and couldn't help but think of his little wife who was alone at home. He got on his bicycle and rushed home like a mad dog.
It's daytime now!
Hey!
Soon, Chu Heng returned to No. 22 Xiaolihua Courtyard.
The door was open, and there was noisy chatter and laughter coming from the courtyard.
"Are there guests?"
He raised his eyebrows and hurriedly pushed the cart into the courtyard. He saw many aunts gathered in the main room, eating melon seeds and talking animatedly to Miss Ni.
A happy and harmonious look.
Some of these people he knew, some he didn't, but they all looked familiar. They were all neighbors from various courtyards in the alley.
"Hey, Director Chu is back. You are really dedicated to your job. You don't forget your work even when moving is such a big thing." Seeing him enter the hospital, an aunt sitting next to Ni Yinghong greeted him with a smile.
This aunt is a little fat and has a matchmaker's mole on her charitable face. She is Aunt Yang from the east courtyard. There are six families living in the small courtyard, and she is the manager of the courtyard.
The status is equivalent to that of several stewards in the courtyard.
The big tabletop that Chu Heng used when drinking was borrowed from the east courtyard, so he had contact with Aunt Yang.
From the current point of view, he is a very kind person.
"Hey, don't you know that a grain store cannot live without people." Chu Heng put his bicycle at the door and walked to the main room with a smile: "What were we just talking about? Is it so lively?"
He looked at his daughter-in-law who had successfully entered the circle of aunts when she first arrived and expressed great joy.
You don’t have to worry about being judged right or wrong in the future.
