Siheyuan: Bringing Warehouses to 1959

After traveling through time for almost a year, Zeng Wangcai has become more and more integrated into this world.

Because of his military service, he doesn't have much contact with the characters in the original novel, and he doesn't have much contact with Qin Huairu, who readers despise (and want to overthrow). There is a lack of interaction, so there is not much to watch.

And because of the time period, he was unable to interact with Lou Xiao'e, the second most popular porcelain doll in the original work, which once again lost a highlight.

But then again, Zeng Wangcai doesn't care about this. He thinks Zhang Xiuzhi is a great girl. She's young at the age of a loli, but has the figure of a queen. Although she has a tough personality, she's really good to him. Why should he worry about what's going on outside?

In Zeng Wangcai's opinion, Qin Huairu and Lou Xiaoe are not a good match. One is a vampire and the other has a time bomb hidden in her house.

"You haven't settled the matter with the Lou family yet?" Zeng Wangcai put down his wine glass and asked, "No, that's not right. Didn't I help you last time and you went to the Lou family?"

"To be honest, it didn't work!" Xu Damao said with a wry smile, "Otherwise I wouldn't have asked you to come buy something. Half a year has passed, and I haven't been to the Lou family yet."

"Wait a minute, what are you talking about?" Yan Bugui asked after listening, "Are you talking about Lou Bancheng? The one with the rich family, the shareholder of the steel mill, Big Cat, do you want to be their son-in-law?"

The fact that Xu Damao wanted to be the son-in-law of the Lou family has always been Xu Damao's secret. He has never told anyone in the Siheyuan. It is estimated that only Zeng Wangcai knows Xu Damao's thoughts.

Now it seems that Xu Damao has no choice.

"Yeah, can't you?"

"It's not impossible!" Yan Bugui said under the influence of alcohol, "We are just ordinary people, but Lou Zhenhua is a wealthy man. He lives in a small western-style building, drives a car to go out, and eats a lot of food at home. We can't even imagine it. He doesn't have to work, and the money comes just by lying down. How can people like us who live in a slum?"

Yan Bugui was almost saying that Xu Damao was a toad wanting to eat swan flesh.

This kind of thinking is very normal, but any normal person would find it impossible, because they do not have the eyes of God.

However, Zeng Wangcai knew that Xu Damao would succeed without external intervention.

wrong......

An idea flashed through Zeng Wangcai's mind, and he began to carefully recall everything about Xu Damao and Lou Xiao'e in the original work, and inferred the time when Xu Damao and Lou Xiao'e got married in the original work.

The original novel was first published in 65, and it begins with a scene where Bang Geng steals a chicken. The chicken he steals is not someone else's chicken, but the chicken that Xu Damao brought back from the countryside.

At that time, the two were already married. Later, during a meeting of the whole hospital, Sha Zhu and Xu Damao had a quarrel. Sha Zhu teased Xu Damao not to mention the eggs, secretly mocking Lou Xiao'e for not laying eggs.

At this time, Sha Zhu has a line that points out that Xu Damao and Lou Xiao'e have been married for many years...

From the words "many years", we can infer that the two people have been married for more than two or three years.

Another basis is age.

Xu Damao was born in 38 and is 22 years old this year, which is a good age to get married. Lou Xiao'e should be 40 or 41 years old, which is also the best age to get married.

Based on this, Zeng Wangcai judged that in the original work, Xu Damao and Lou Xiao'e were married either in 60 or 61.

And now, the two of them are still in this state, so... the plot has changed.

"Lou Zhenhua has other ideas!" This conclusion came to Zeng Wangcai's mind. Only this conclusion seemed to be able to reasonably explain Xu Damao's current state.

"I think what Third Uncle said is right!" Zeng Wangcai continued Yan Bugui's words, "It is impossible for rich people like the Lou family to be interested in ordinary people in our compound. You'd better think about this matter, otherwise you will end up losing more than you gain."

"Hey, both of you are worrying too much." Xu Damao said nonchalantly, "The Lou family is no longer what it used to be. Lou Zhenhua is always trembling with fear, afraid of being robbed. I am from the working class, and I have the opportunity. If this kind of investment pays off, it will be a return hundreds or thousands of times."

Well, this guy actually has such vision. If you want to make trouble, just go ahead.

Just... do you have that diamond drill?

Zeng Wangcai didn't plan to say it again. He had said it once, and their relationship had not reached that level yet.

He knew that if the plot changed, Xu Damao would be less likely to get into trouble.

After three rounds of wine and five dishes, the topic became more and more extensive, and finally turned to Zeng Wangcai's slaughtering of pigs.

"You are the only one who is willing to kill a pig to entertain guests." Yan Bugui was drunk and said with envy, "I don't know who you are inviting to spend so much money."

"There are only a few old men and Secretary Wang from Maihe Commune. There is no one else." Zeng Wangcai was still sober. "It's a pity that Big Cat invited Sha Zhu to be the chef. Otherwise, you could come and have a drink."

"Since Shazhu is the chef, can't I have a drink?" Big Cat was already high, and said unconvincedly, "I insist on coming. When will you treat me?"

"Sunday!"

"That won't work. I'm going to Lou's on Sunday!"

"Haha, Wangcai, don't believe him. He's just afraid of Shazhu."

"I'm afraid of him? Grandma!"

Xu Damao was tough on the outside but honest on the inside. The next day he packed his things and prepared to visit Lou Zhenhua. He didn't know that this visit not only prevented him from getting closer to Lou Xiaoe, but instead pushed Lou Zhenhua to Zeng Wangcai's side.

In the central courtyard, at the doorstep of Sha Zhu’s house, a tea party is held every day without fail.

The participants included Sha Zhu, the Qin Huairu sisters, the three old-fashioned uncles Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui, and a few neighbors in the Central Courtyard who liked the hustle and bustle.

The topic naturally turned to Yan Bugui's salary increase, and once this topic was brought up, Qin Jingru could no longer sit still.

"Shazhu, do you think that if I give the cherry tomatoes to the leader of the steel mill, will I have a job?" Qin Huairu asked.

"Well, it's fine, but I'm afraid the canteen director doesn't know what it is." Sha Zhu hesitated for a while, "Besides, the cherry tomatoes are not enough, I ate half of the stick..."

"Isn't there still more than half left? Besides, this kind of rare thing will be gone if it's less." Qin Jingru said relentlessly.

"I've eaten a lot of the remaining rain water. Now there are only two taels left. How can I give this away?" Sha Zhu said depressedly.

My sister wants to eat, so I can’t just refuse to give her food, right?

Qin Jingru became unhappy instantly and pouted without saying a word. She had been in Siheyuan for quite some time and had always wanted to marry into the family, but things did not go as she wished. Qin Huairu went from supporting her to secretly sabotaging her and instigated her to work, so it had been delayed until now.

Qin Jingru was definitely unhappy because she finally had an opportunity but it slipped away.

Seeing this, Qin Huairu whispered in Qin Jingru's ear: "You are stupid, let him go to Zeng Wangcai to ask for it. I saw it during the day. Zeng Wangcai has a lot of small tomatoes, baskets and baskets of them. Zeng Xiaoqiang and Zeng Laifu eat them as meals."

Qin Jingru fell silent, and the corners of her mouth curled up at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"What are you two talking about?" Liu Haizhong couldn't help but ask.

"What else can I say?" Sha Zhu pouted, "Let me go find Wangcai!"

Shazhu is really not stupid, he guessed it.

After the tea party, Liu Haizhong did not go back, but took Yi Zhonghai to Yi Zhonghai's house.

"Lao Yi, I think this is an opportunity. The gift of cherry tomatoes is absolutely amazing..."
