Siheyuan: Smiling at the Birds

Chapter 3 Sharing Eggs

Li Tianyou discovered a problem and asked: "System, as a good young man in the 21st century, you sent me to this film and television world. How should I take a bath? I can't really take a bath like the people here, only once in a long time, right?"

[Ding~ Considering the host's personal hygiene, the host is rewarded with a personal space. This space can only be used by the host. 】

Li Tianyou came to this personal space as soon as he thought about it. He took a look and found that it looked very much like the current bathroom, with a toilet and other facilities, very complete.

Li Tianyou thought he didn’t have to queue up to use the toilet.

Li Tianyou walked to the mirror and looked at himself now. He also took off his shirt, revealing his muscular body. The muscle lines that were as sharp as a knife and an axe would never give people the visual sense of a muscular man. Instead, he looked thin when dressed and had muscles when undressed. Moreover, his already outstanding appearance became even more handsome.

In the world before the time travel, he would definitely be a handsome man.

After taking a shower, Li Tianyou returned to the courtyard. Li Tianyou asked: "System, how long have I been away? It feels like the time here hasn't changed much." (Because at this time, Li Tianyou didn't have a watch.)

[Ding~ The host left in less than a second. 】

Li Tianyou nodded, the system arrangement was still very considerate.

Li Tianyou said: "System, sign in today."

[Ding~Sign in successfully, congratulations to the host for obtaining, 1957 Big Black Cards (issued from 1964 to May 5), 100 catties of White Rabbit Milk Candy, 12 catties of pork belly, eggs, catties of white flour, three kinds of planting seeds (rice, wheat, corn), each of livestock cubs (pigs, cattle, sheep, chickens, ducks, geese), packs of Zhonghua cigarettes (special supply), and a box of Maotai liquor ( bottles)]

Li Tianyou became happier and happier as he listened to the system's prompts. You have to know that 1959 was a time when people were not able to eat enough. Even people in the city were not able to eat enough, so you can imagine the situation in the countryside.

I don't feel that when watching TV, but I really hear it from the old people. Tree bark and grass roots are common, and only city dwellers can eat steamed corn bread. White flour buns? That thing can only be eaten during festivals, not casually.

Because of hunger, many people died or were maimed while hunting wild game in the mountains.

You can imagine how rare and precious the sign-in items given by the system are.

Li Tianyou directed his consciousness towards the space. It was a pitch-black space filled with various things. The livestock cubs, on the other hand, went directly to the breeding space.

Li Tianyou planted the plant seeds in the planting space provided by the system without any hesitation.

Li Tianyou asked again: "System, how big is the space for planting and breeding?"

[Ding~Currently, the planting area is ten acres, and the breeding area has 100 livestock and poultry of various types. ]

Li Tianyou frowned and asked: "How about expanding the scope of breeding and planting?"

[Ding~ This needs to be developed by the host himself, this system cannot tell you. 】

Li Tianyou frowned and thought, forget it, I won’t tell you, I’ll study it slowly later.

Li Tianyou regained his composure and waved his hand. 60 eggs appeared on the table. Li Tianyou found the pot, lit the fire, added water, and started to cook the eggs.

Fortunately, there is still some coal and firewood in the house, otherwise I really don’t know what to do?

After Li Tianyou boiled the eggs, he went out and came to a house in the backyard with a chicken coop in front of the door. He took a look and thought, this must be Xu Damao's house. He looked at another house and this one must be the house of his second uncle Liu Haizhong.

Without staying any longer, I went to the front yard.

As soon as he arrived at the front yard, he saw the third uncle Yan Bugui standing in front of the gate as the door god. Li Tianyou walked over with a smile.

Looking at Yan Bugui who was staring at the door, Li Tianyou smiled and said, "Uncle, which old woman are you looking at?"

Yan Bugui was so focused on watching the door that he didn't notice Li Tianyou coming to his side. Li Tianyou's question also frightened Yan Bugui. He patted his chest and looked at Li Tianyou and said, "Comrade, why are you walking without making any sound?"

Li Tianyou said with a smile: "Third uncle, you were so absorbed in watching the old woman that you didn't notice me. That's because I walked without making any sound."

Yan Bugui waved his hands and said, "Go away, what are you talking about, little comrade? Who is looking at me?"

Li Tianyou was amused. People in this era were really not easily amused. So he said, "Uncle, I just came to our yard and don't know anyone. I just boiled some eggs and gave an egg to each household. Could you please help lead the way?"

Li Tianyou thought, not every family in this courtyard is a beast, so if you can be friendly with them, then be friendly with them. There is no hatred or resentment, so why stand on the opposite side of each other? Now he has enough food and drink. So those families should also be given, otherwise it would be very abrupt if they were missing.

When Yan Bugui heard Li Tianyou say that he was going to distribute eggs to the residents in the yard, he also laughed and said, "I know, little comrade, I'll go with you to distribute them to everyone."

As he said that, he followed Li Tianyou to the backyard and to Li Tianyou's house. Li Tianyou took out the freshly boiled eggs and put them in a basin. Yan Bugui looked at so many eggs and thought to himself, wow, there are at least dozens of eggs in this basin.

Li Tianyou filled another bag with some White Rabbit candies and said, "Let's go, Uncle San."

Yan Bugui chuckled and said, "Okay, let's go."

As he said that, he and Yan Bugui came to the door of a resident. Yan Bugui looked at Li Tianyou and said with a smile: "Little comrade, the old deaf lady who is the ancestor of our courtyard lives here. She is also the oldest person in our courtyard. I heard that she even donated shoes to the Red Army."

Li Tianyou grimaced inwardly when he heard this. How could an old lady with bound feet like her send shoes to the Red Army? Haha, I would never believe it even if you kill me.

After saying that, Yan Bugui knocked on the door and shouted, "Old lady, there are new residents in our courtyard. I just came to meet everyone and give each of us an egg."

A voice came from inside the door, "Oh, there's a new resident in our yard? Come in, the door is not locked."

Yan Bugui kept saying happily: "Okay." As he spoke, he pulled Li Tianyou in.

Li Tianyou looked at the old man half-sitting and half-lying on the bed, and narrowed his eyes. This was the damn old man who had ruined Lou Xiaoe's second half of her life.

You can imagine what it feels like to spend money to support those who report you and raid your home.

Xu Damao and Liu Haizhong reported the Lou family, and Liu Haizhong led people to raid the Lou family. Now, because of Sha Zhu, they have to support Liu Haizhong in his old age. What a ridiculous thing.

The deaf old lady also kept looking at Li Tianyou who entered the room, and then looked at the basin in Yan Bugui's hand. When she saw the eggs in it, she smiled and said, "Young man, you look very energetic. You can tell at first glance that you are a good young man."

Li Tianyou also smiled and said: "Hello, old lady, I am a new resident who also lives in the backyard. We will be neighbors in the future. My name is Li Tianyou."

Yan Bugui said with a smile: "Yes, yes, yes, this young man is called Li Tianyou."

Li Tianyou took out two eggs from the basin and put down a handful of White Rabbit candies, then said, "Old lady, Uncle Three said that there are 26 other households living in this courtyard besides me. I'm going to deliver the eggs to them all before dinner. I'm leaving now and will greet you later."

The deaf old lady also took the eggs and candy and said with a smile: "Okay, go quickly, we will talk later."

After Li Tianyou and Yan Bugui left the deaf old lady's place, they went to the second uncle Liu Haizhong's house. They put down eggs and milk candies, and the second aunt was also smiling from ear to ear.

Then he went to Xu Damao's house and asked him to open the door. The person who opened the door was a woman with shoulder-length hair and fair complexion. She was not very pretty but very delicate. She looked at Yan Bugui and Li Tianyou in confusion and asked, "Third Uncle, what can I do for you?"

Li Tianyou looked at the woman who opened the door and thought, this must be the money bag of the nursing home, Lou Xiaoe.

Yan Bugui explained to Lou Xiaoe, and Li Tianyou left two eggs and a handful of candies before leaving.

Soon all the things in the backyard were given, and they came to the middle yard. They first went to the home of the eldest uncle Yi Zhonghai, and then to the home of Sha Zhu. Looking at Sha Zhu wearing a dark green cotton-padded jacket, Li Tianyou thought to himself that the green color really suits Sha Zhu. He is old and ugly, and he must have been beautified on TV.

Think about it, he is a child whose father ran away. He has been the main supporter of the family since he was young and has to raise a younger sister. Now he has to support several members of the Jia family. It is normal for him to look old.

Soon, the Intermediate Court was divided into only one family. Yan Bugui looked at Li Tianyou, who was hesitant to speak. Li Tianyou looked at Yan Bugui's dilemma and said with a smile: "It's okay, Third Uncle, go to any family."

After saying that, they came to Jia Zhang's house. Yan Bugui asked them to open the door, but Jia Zhang didn't move. Jia Zhang had known for a long time that Li Tianyou and the third uncle had divided the eggs together, so she had been waiting. She was afraid that Li Tianyou would not come to their house because of what happened in the afternoon. Now that he was here, it was even less likely that he would cause trouble. Even if she wanted to pay compensation, she would have to wait until the eggs were divided.

Looking at the three children, one boy and two little girls, Li Tianyou said with a smile: "There are enemy spies lurking in your family. You are still young, so don't be influenced by them." After saying that, he smiled and rubbed Xiao Huaihua's head.

These three children are Banggeng, Xiaodang and Xiaohuaihua in the film and television dramas.

Jia Zhang was sitting in the house and when she heard Li Tianyou's words, she was so angry that her mouth corners were crooked. She wanted to curse but held back the words she wanted to say, because Li Tianyou was now delivering eggs. If Jia Zhang dared to make a fuss, Li Tianyou would stop distributing eggs. Jia Zhang could not bear the anger of everyone in the front yard.

Bang Geng tilted his head and glared at Li Tianyou viciously: "There is no enemy spy in my family. My grandma said you are..."

Before he finished speaking, Yan Bugui interrupted him and said, "Tianyou, let's go to the front yard."

Li Tianyou looked at Bang Geng who was about to curse, and thought to himself that this child has already gone astray. Never mind, let him go as far as he wants as long as he doesn't provoke me, the better. Anyway, he is not my son, it's none of my business.

Li Tianyou left the middle courtyard under Banggeng's gaze. When Jia Zhang saw Li Tianyou leaving, she ran over, grabbed the eggs and candy and said, "Let's eat together when your mother comes back."

Xiaodang and Xiaohuahua also swallowed their saliva when they saw the eggs and candies that were snatched away by their grandmother.

Soon the eggs were divided among the 26 households, with each family getting two eggs. There were 52 left, and Li Tianyou gave them all to Yan Bugui. Yan Bugui was so happy that he didn't know where to put his mouth.

Yan Bugui collected the eggs, handed the basin to Li Tianyou, and whispered, "Tianyou, be careful tonight. If you hit Jia Zhang today, the elder in this courtyard will definitely call a meeting of the whole courtyard to make trouble for you."

Li Tianyou looked at Yan Bugui and smiled: "Thank you for the reminder, Uncle San. It's okay. If they dare to cause trouble, I will give them a big treat."

After Li Tianyou finished speaking, he went back to his room in the backyard to cook and eat. He had great cooking skills, so there was no need to waste food.
