Siheyuan: Lou Xiao'e, Yu Li and the Savage Woman

As a person who has experienced it, although Cao Haotian's cultural level is not very high, he also studied history in the 21st century.

He knows a thing or two about our neighboring country, India.

There, cows and cow urine are worshipped extremely.

I heard that some people have to drink two liang of liquor in the morning, otherwise they will be in a bad mood for the whole day...

Moreover, in the local area, cow dung is also a good thing. I heard that it can be made into biscuits...

Cao Haotian knew that the self-defense counterattack war would not start until the end of next year.

But since this year, India has been blatantly crossing the border and trying to encroach on our territory.

Because the other side is too arrogant, we have no choice but to fight back in self-defense...

Zhou Xiaobai was in a bad mood when she saw that her father couldn't stay to celebrate her birthday with her.

But she also completely understood.

My father is a soldier and his duty is to obey orders.

Moreover, celebrating a birthday is a small matter; going to the border to protect the safety of the people and the integrity of the territory is a big matter.

"Dad, it's okay. At worst you can just stay with me next year!"

"You are going to the southwest tomorrow, so you must be careful when you go."

Zhou Xiaobai silently shed two tears.

Every time her father went out for some emergency, she and her mother at home were very worried.

This is how I have been living since I was a child.

"Okay, Dad will definitely celebrate your birthday with you next year." Zhou Zhennan patted his daughter's shoulder.

If I can’t accompany you this year, forget about it next year.

However, Cao Haotian did not say what he was thinking.

"Uncle Zhou, since you're leaving tomorrow, why not celebrate Xiaobai's birthday tonight!"

Cao Haotian's reminder was purely well-intentioned.

Because at this time next year, Zhou Zhennan will definitely be commanding the battle on the battlefield.

"Yes! Dad, let's celebrate your birthday in advance tonight."

Zhou Xiaobai was very satisfied with the suggestions made by Cao Haotian.

"Okay, then let's go over early tonight." Zhou Zhennan continued, "Haotian, you come too in the evening, it will be more lively with more people."

Cao Haotian nodded decisively in agreement.

Being able to celebrate the Empress’ birthday is something many people dream of!

So he had to come.

Afterwards, Zhou Xiaobai and Luo Yun were cooking lunch in the kitchen.

Cao Haotian and Zhou Zhennan were playing chess in the living room.

In just 30 minutes, Cao Haotian lost five games in a row.

Although he has a system, his IQ is not very high.

Playing chess, in particular, requires a lot of brainpower.

Moreover, Zhou Zhennan’s chess level is very high, so it is normal for Cao Haotian to lose five games in a row.

Soon, the meal was ready.

On the table were braised grass carp, pork, cabbage and vermicelli stew, scrambled eggs with chili peppers, and a plate of stir-fried vegetables.

And more than a dozen white flour buns.

Cao Haotian opened a bottle of Moutai, but Zhou Zhennan said he had several phone calls to make in the afternoon, so he didn't drink the wine and drank tea instead.

There's no point in Cao Haotian drinking alone.

He wanted to pour two glasses for Zhou Xiaobai and Luo Yun, but Zhou Zhennan was also at the table...

The four of them had lunch together. Zhou Xiaobai's mother probably had something to do at work and did not come back at noon.

After lunch, Zhou Zhennan took out two packs of cigarettes and two cans of jasmine tea from the cupboard and gave them to Cao Haotian.

It’s a return gift for the Maotai and pork he gave me today.

Cao Haotian did not refuse, after all, this was also the other party's intention.

Afterwards, Zhou Zhennan handed Cao Haotian another 50 yuan.

Let him accompany Zhou Xiaobai to choose a birthday present, as he would help with the delivery, because he still had a lot of things to deal with in the afternoon.

Going shopping with girls, and two girls at that, so Cao Haotian agreed directly...

Cao Haotian and two other people rode their bicycles out of the compound.

"Xiaobai, what birthday gift do you want? Tell me and I will definitely satisfy you..."

"Brother Cao, I want money, so don't buy any gifts. Just give me the 50 yuan my dad just gave you..."

Cao Haotian never expected that Zhou Xiaobai would ask for money directly.

But the other party had already spoken directly, so he had no reason to refuse.

He decisively handed the five big unity notes to Zhou Xiaobai.

Afterwards, Cao Haotian accompanied the two of them to a bookstore.

Zhou Xiaobai bought two books.

It is the kind of book that young girls in love like to read the most.

After buying the books, Zhou Xiaobai said he wanted to go to a classmate's house.

Cao Haotian said he also had to go back to the steel mill.

After parting ways in front of the bookstore, Cao Haotian rode his bicycle straight to the steel mill.

Go to the purchasing department and find Yu Li.

The two came to a remote and deserted place, and Cao Haotian took out a gold necklace from his arms:

"I bought this specially for you, do you like it?"

Yu Li nodded excitedly.

No one had ever given her such an expensive gift.

"Haotian, didn't I tell you last night not to spend money on me recklessly in the future?"

"As long as you like it, it's not a waste of money." Cao Haotian touched her head.

At this moment, Yu Li felt very happy...

Afterwards, Cao Haotian politely said that he couldn't go back to the courtyard to accompany her that night, because a friend was going on a long trip tomorrow, so he had to have a good drink with his friend tonight...

Yu Li nodded in agreement and reminded Cao Haotian not to drink too much...

After leaving the steel mill, Cao Haotian returned to the courtyard.

He also took out some food, cakes and fruits from the space and placed them in the house.

Then he changed into a brand new Zhongshan suit, locked the gate, and rode his bicycle to the No. 2 compound in the west city...

…………

In the evening, more than a dozen children from the compound, led by Li Dahu, blocked the road that the steel rolling mill had to take to return to No. 95 Compound...
