Siheyuan: Starting with level 8 benchwork skills

He took out a new set of toothbrushes for Sanli to wash her face and brush her teeth, and he started to boil water. Soon the water was boiling, and Sanli was ready, so she stood beside Qiao Erqiang and watched him cook.

This time, Qiao Erqiang did not rush her to eat, but gave her a cup of warm boiled water to help start her digestive system. "The first thing you should do every morning when you wake up is to drink this warm water." Qiao Erqiang patiently instructed, and emphasized that the water temperature should not be too high or too cold, "Remember that."

After listening to **'s teachings, Sanli nodded silently, and was told to remind her elder brother Yicheng and younger sister Simei to learn this habit.

---

After Sanli finished drinking the warm water, Qiao Erqiang allowed her to enjoy a bowl of fragrant old duck soup vermicelli.

He took out the soaked vermicelli and put it in a bowl, garnished it with green chopped green onions, and then slowly poured the steaming duck soup and chopped duck meat and duck blood on it. The rich taste made Sanli take a deep breath of the aroma. Qiao Erqiang couldn't help but smile when he saw this scene. Her playful little appearance was like a curious cat.

To ensure that it wouldn't be too hot, he took out a wooden table from the storage space and placed it next to the door, setting out the simple breakfast.

Sanli, who was sitting on the stool, picked up the bowl and chopsticks and just tasted the first bite of delicious food, but suddenly raised her head and looked at Qiao Erqiang, "Second brother, you should try it first. When you are full, let me take over." Qiao Erqiang was quite moved when he heard this. He pointed to the raw fans beside him and said, "Don't worry, I still have some. You can start eating."

Sanli nodded obediently and couldn't wait to take a mouthful of duck blood. However, because it was too hot, she couldn't help but open her mouth and breathe out. At this time, Erqiang hurriedly asked her to spit out the food and put it on a spoon to cool it down slightly.

Qiao Erqiang watched her eat with a smile on his face, as kindly as a loving father treating his precious daughter.

At this time, he noticed Sanli's messy hair, so he thought of picking out an exquisite horn comb from his collection as a gift for her.

Unfortunately, the eldest brother Yicheng also got up and walked into the living room. Seeing his third sister, Sanli immediately stood up and greeted her. Qiao Erqiang pushed her back to the chair and said, "Hurry up and eat. Your brother will get up soon. Is there any need to be nervous?"

Then he came over and handed the eldest brother a new set of toothbrush and toothpaste for personal use, and said, "This is for you. From now on, it is more hygienic for each of us to use our own things, remember."

Qiao Yicheng nodded, didn't ask any more questions, took the things and started to wash up.

Seeing that he accepted it, Qiao Erqiang continued, "After washing up, let's have breakfast. I cooked duck blood vermicelli soup. This is my first time trying it. I don't know how it tastes. I hope you don't find it unpalatable."

Qiao Yicheng, who was brushing his teeth, paused for a moment and wanted to ask his brother where he got the duck blood and vermicelli. He was very confused. Qiao Erqiang had become more and more unfamiliar to him!

Thinking back to yesterday, Qiao Yichen finally chose to remain silent.

While Qiao Erqiang was handing a new toothbrush and toothpaste to Qiao Yicheng, Sanli entered the room and poured him a cup of hot water.

At this time, Simei shouted in the room: "Sister, sister, have you seen my White Rabbit milk candy?"

Sanli came into the room and saw Simei still rummaging around in bed: "Didn't you eat everything last night?"

Feeling extremely lost, Simei said with tears in her eyes, "I seemed to have had a dream. In the dream, a white rabbit gave me more than ten milk candies, but after I woke up, they disappeared without a trace and I couldn't find them."

Seeing her silly look, Sanli couldn't help but laugh: "What you said was just a dream, how can reality be the same? How are you going to get those milk candies back?"

Si Mei still refused to give up and begged, "Sister, you should still have a few milk candies, right? Can you give them to me? I want to relive the happiness I just had. I promise I will never steal any more."

After saying this, she immediately raised her little finger, which was a common gesture for swearing an oath to others; Simei always misunderstood this as a way of swearing an oath, and although Sanli corrected her many times, she just let her do it.

Sanli replied without a smile: "Once the candies are given to you, they will definitely disappear soon. Last time, you secretly took away the candy wrapper that my big brother gave me, and I don't know what happened to it!"

Hearing this, Simei coquettishly shook Sanli's arm and begged, "No, it won't happen again. You are the best sister Sanli, I will definitely keep it well this time. If not, I will whimper like a puppy!"

Sanli could only reluctantly take out several White Rabbit milk candies that she had hidden carefully and wrapped in a handkerchief.

Then she handed the candies over and said, "You can only play with them for a short while, and you have to return them later!"

At this time, Qiao Erqiang shouted from outside, "Hey, Sanli, why don't you eat the leftovers from last night together? If you don't eat them quickly, they will go bad and become inedible!"

The four beauties in the room immediately shouted, "Hey, second brother, I want to eat some too, please save some for me!"

Er Qiang knew that Si Mei had woken up: "Then you should get up quickly, otherwise my brother, sister and I will eat everything up!"

She hurriedly dressed and went out, still shouting, "Come on, leave some for me!"

Qiao Zuwang, who was sleeping in bed, heard the noise and shouted angrily, "Why are you little guys making so much noise so early in the morning? If you have nothing to do, go outside and play, and don't disturb my sleep!"

The originally cheerful steps stopped immediately and an innocent expression appeared.

Looking at the milk candies scattered on the bed, the three beauties shook their heads and smiled bitterly at the four beauties' sloppy habits.

After taking back the milk candies, the three beauties picked up the hot water cups to quench Dayong's thirst. Another cup of water had been poured in the room for the four beauties.

"Look at you, can't you learn from the three beauties?" Qiao Er saw the messy four beauties and cleaned up for them while scolding them.

After being scolded, Simei smiled innocently and stood there like a cute little doll, allowing Qiao Er to tidy her up.

Dayong took the hot water handed to him by the three beauties, rinsed his mouth, spit it out, and then drank the water in big gulps. Qiao Er also tidied up the clothes of the fourth beauty and even combed her hair to make it look more tidy.

Looking at the slightly messy hair of the three beauties, Dayong couldn't help but say, "Three beauties, you should also tidy up your hair. It really affects your image when it's so messy."

The three beauties heard it but ignored it.

Qiao Er glanced at the three beauties and didn't dare to take out the keratin comb he was going to give them as gifts. He didn't know how to make these sensible girls forget yesterday's incident.

Everyone finished their breakfast with their own thoughts...

Qiao Er came up with the only solution - he had to quickly change the environment so that the three beauties could put aside all their unhappiness!

When Qiao Er was about to look for a place to stay, Dayong stopped him - today is Saturday, and Dayong wants to take three beauties and four beauties to wash quilts, and hopes Qiao Er can help.

After using the wooden bucket to clean the quilt, Dayong held one end, while Qiao Er and the three beauties held the other end, working together to squeeze out the water.

The four beauties cheered excitedly: "Come on, brother! Come on, second brother! Come on, sister!"

This made Dayong feel that if it weren't for what happened yesterday and Qiao Er's changes, nothing seemed to have changed at home.

After tidying up the bedding, Qiao Er decided to wander around looking for a way out; he decided to quickly acquire wealth to improve his living conditions - living in the Qiao Family Courtyard was really depressing!

When the three beauties, Simei and Dayong, were drying their bedding, their neighbor, Mrs. Wu, accidentally splashed water on the quilt while washing vegetables and fruits.

The water stains created a large area of ​​contamination, similar to a baby wetting his bed, with a yellow vegetable leaf attached.

Seeing this, Dayong was very dissatisfied and went to Aunt Wu to argue, but Aunt Wu said unkindly: "Hey, you hang the clothes on our territory, I just accidentally spilled it, can't you just go home and wash it again?"

At this time, three beauties stood up to argue with the lady.

Since Ancient Times, New Life in Peking Old Residence, Text Volume 013, Shanghai Xiaolong Soup Dumplings, Dayong looked at his ten-year-old sister in astonishment. The quiet girl in the past was now standing in the courtyard and cursing.

Qiao Yicheng had never heard her say such vulgar words, and now these words kept coming out of her mouth, her hair was disheveled, her face was red with excitement, and her expression was full of pain. This made Qiao Yicheng feel familiar and strange when he looked at Sanli in front of him.

Qiao Yicheng felt an unprecedented fear in his heart and began to doubt that his previous optimistic thoughts when washing bedding were too naive.

Not everything is as it used to be.

Sanli now seems to be in a bottomless quagmire, she is covered in dirt, which makes her brother Qiao Yicheng extremely confused - he doesn't know how to help Sanli out of the predicament!

He was worried that he might never be able to pull this once obedient and considerate little sister out of the quagmire.

When Qiao Erqiang returned home, Sanli, who had been in a low mood, immediately turned back into the well-behaved and obedient child she used to be, and always followed Qiao Erqiang closely; no matter what Erqiang was doing, he could always see her helping him.

Seeing her sister changing so quickly, Si Mei didn't agree with it and mocked her in her heart: "Well, you are such a little tail."

Unexpectedly, Qiao Erqiang heard her words and pinched her cheek without any hesitation!

This incident made Simei angry because she remembered that they promised not to tease each other anymore.

Simei decided not to get along with this person who didn’t keep his promise anymore!

So the four beauties began to call Erqiang by his real name instead of calling him brother.

But when Erqiang took out some crispy sesame cakes, she immediately gave up her integrity and followed him again, "Good second brother, I'm sorry! I was really wrong, I am the little shadow closest to you!"

Soon, after two days of care, Li Heman was discharged from the hospital and returned home. During those days in the hospital, he only did some wound care. In order to save money, he went home to recuperate early.

After hearing the news, Qiao Zuwang immediately rushed to the Li family. Facing Li Heman, whose face was covered with bruises that had not yet faded, Qiao Zuwang said, "So how are you going to deal with this?"

At this time, thinking that Qiao Zuwang was here to negotiate compensation on behalf of Qiao Erqiang, the flustered Li Heman nervously replied, "Cousin, why don't we just settle it privately."
