Siheyuan: Superintendent at the beginning, wife Reba!

Zheng Juan followed Zhang Chengfei's line of sight and saw a row of three-story white buildings across the road. A little further away, there was a row of red European-style buildings.

She told Zhang Chengfei that the small white building not far away was left over from the previous puppet period. Even though the devils and devils are not good people, their houses are really well built. They are all one-and-a-half-bedroom layouts. The houses are spacious and bright, and are equipped with wells, toilets, and laundry rooms.

The walls of the house are half a meter long, and the cement used is the cement used to build blockhouses. It is said that it will remain as strong as ever for hundreds of years.

After the foot pot chickens were removed, those small white buildings were expropriated by the unit and turned into cadre housing, which was allocated to the cadres to live in.

As for those red buildings, it was earlier. When the Mao Xiong Kingdom became independent, the former nobles and rich people were afraid of being liquidated, so they took advantage of the snowy river to freeze and drove their carriages to the outside of the pass. Some of them also ran there. Anshan.

"They brought a lot of gold and silver with them when they fled, and they built villas and gardens here. Even for fugitives, their life in Anshan at that time was absolutely upper-class..."

"Later, after liberation, these people fled again and left their houses behind. These houses were also expropriated, and the people who live in these villas now are all cadres above the thirteenth level."

"These various buildings represent the history of Anshan in different periods. Although architecture cannot speak, architecture knows everything." Zheng Juan held her chin up and looked at the houses in the distance in a daze.

Zhang Chengfei saw that she was talking about history in a clear and precise manner, and couldn't help but ask, "Zheng Juan, what is your academic qualifications?"

"Me?" Zheng Juan turned around, looked at Zhang Chengfei and smiled, "I graduated from junior high school. When I was in school, I studied very well. Russian was always the first in the school!!!"

--The school she attended was in Dongshan Street, Tiedong District. The predecessor was also established by Tiaobenji. Later, after liberation, the school was renamed as an experimental school. It was changed from a primary school to a primary school and a junior high school was integrated.

The Experimental School is one of the few integrated schools in Anshan, and it is very enviable to be able to study here.

In fact, she had great hopes of getting into a technical secondary school, but her mother's health was deteriorating day by day, and her younger brother was too young to help the family.

Helpless, she returned home in tears after graduating from junior high school. At that time, the school’s teachers specially chased her to the school and mobilized her to continue taking the technical secondary school entrance exam. They told her that after passing the exam, she would be able to receive state subsidies without spending a penny from her family.

But what did she say at the time? ?

She said, "Teacher, you can get money from technical secondary schools, but look at the situation at home. My brother is only four years old, and my mother is over 70. Her health is getting worse day by day, and she is sick again. If I don't help at home, While they’re at it, they can’t even put food in their mouths.”

"My biological parents abandoned me, my mother adopted me, and I couldn't abandon her."

The teacher looked at Zheng Juan's house with only four walls and her mother lying on the bed whining. He understood that what Zheng Juan said were objective facts, so he had no choice but to sigh and said it was a pity.

"Your life is trapped in Taiping Hutong, Zheng Juan. When will you leave Taiping Hutong and the photon film, when will you be able to usher in a new life." These were the last words the teacher left for Zheng Juan before leaving.

Recalling the past, Zheng Juan couldn't help but feel sad on her face. Ever since she became sensible, she has often thought about a question, that is, why did her biological parents abandon her at that time?

She is not blind like her brother Zheng Guangming, and she has no other physical problems. On the contrary, she is strong and even very beautiful. People in the alley say that Xi Shi looked like her in ancient times.

In this day and age, every household has five or six children, and having one more child is not too much. Are her parents really just short of her?

If she had not been abandoned by her biological parents, she might have been able to get into a technical secondary school, or even go to university, and become a cadre, or at last a worker. If that were the case, her life might be completely different.

But there are no ifs in this world. She is always just Zheng Juan in Taiping Hutong who "everything is fate and no one can control it at all"...

Zheng Juan was immersed in her emotions for a while and couldn't extricate herself. She didn't come back to her senses until all the food was on the table and Zhang Chengfei asked her to eat.

"Ah, the dishes are here. Brother Zhang, hurry up and try it." Zheng Juan suppressed her self-pity and raised her hand to put a chopstick of pot-wrapped pork in Zhang Chengfei's bowl.

"This is our specialty Guobao Pork from outside Guanxi. It is made from large pieces of fine meat, fried in batter, and then paired with sweet and sour sauce. It has a crispy texture and a taste that is sour and sweet, and sweet and sour."

Zhang Chengfei picked up the piece of pot-roasted meat and put it into his mouth, savoring it slowly, nodding with satisfaction, "It's crispy and delicious, and the sound of chewing is heard for thousands of miles. The sweet and sour sauce uses tomato paste instead of vinegar, so it's soft." ,Not bad."

--Actually, his uncle and aunt live outside the customs. He has been to other cities outside the customs many times, and has eaten hot pot pork several times. But in front of Zheng Juan, he still gave her face and ate several pieces in a row.

Seeing that he was happy with his meal, Zheng Juan hurriedly introduced other dishes. The two of them talked while eating and drinking, and the atmosphere at the dinner table was very harmonious.

It is said that the portions of Guanwai cuisine are large, and the dishes are served not on plates, but on basins. Now that Zhang Chengfei was eating, he realized that that was an exaggeration, but the portions of the dishes here were indeed very large.

What surprised him more than the amount of food was Zheng Juan's appetite. This girl looks very frail, similar to Lin Daiyu, but unexpectedly, she tastes like black Li Kui when she eats meat.

Four dishes and one soup, Zhang Chengfei ate half of it, and Zheng Juan ate the other half in a hurry.

Looking at the clean dishes on the table, Zheng Juan finally breathed a sigh of relief. Before, she was worried that she wouldn't be able to finish the food and waste it.

Seeing that Zhang Chengfei had finished eating and was drinking tea, Zheng Juan stood up and asked the waiter to pay, but she was told that the payment had been made. What surprised her even more was that the waiter took out three lunch boxes and handed them over.

"Here are the three dishes of Guobao Pork, Braised Pork and Twice-cooked Pork that you are going to pack. Take them."

"We didn't pack it...?" Zheng Juan suddenly came back to her senses after saying this. She turned her face and looked at Zhang Chengfei as if she had thought of something, "Brother Zhang, did you pack this?"

Zhang Chengfei lit a cigarette and nodded, "We can't just go out and improve, we have to leave some with your mother and Guangming."

"Why, why are you so embarrassed? You clearly agreed that I would treat you to dinner." Zheng Juan was at a loss for a moment as she held the mesh bag with the lunch box in her hand.

---Originally, I invited you to dinner to repay your kindness, but now I end up owing more and more.

"Hey, why are you so polite to your elder brother?" Zhang Chengfei rubbed his hair and said, "Let's go, I was so full from eating just now. Now I'm going out for a walk with my elder brother."
