Siheyuan: I stand for Xu Damao because he is my brother

No one knows a brother better than his sister. He Yushui knew that his brother would do it as long as it was for revenge against Xu Damao.

But just now, Xu Damao apologized.

He Yushui also knew that he had said the wrong thing, and quickly comforted Sha Zhu, saying, "Brother, Xu Damao has also apologized to you, so you two are even now."

Sha Zhu snorted coldly: "Even? Wait, there is a long time to go!"

Backyard, Xu Damao's house.

Lou Xiao'e frowned and looked at Xu Damao and asked him, "What's going on?"

Xu Damao was very angry and said impatiently: "Go away, I'm annoyed!"

Lou Xiaoe couldn't get angry in front of her brother-in-law, so she could only glare at him fiercely before looking at Xu Dacan: "You say!"

Xu Dacan immediately told Lou Xiaoe what had just happened.

Lou Xiao'e found that he had a good ability to summarize and could explain something simply and concisely. This is eloquence.

A high school graduate could have such eloquence. Now Lou Xiao'e no longer worried that he would have trouble getting along with his colleagues after he went to the small car team of the Red Star Factory.

The next day, it was Sunday, which was still called Sunday.

Early that morning, the three of them packed up, stood at attention, and set off with their gifts.

Today, Xu Dacan went to visit his grandparents, Damao's parents.

According to etiquette, he should have gone the next day. But Xu Damao had a screening task in the next few days, so it was difficult to ask for leave, so he set the date for today.

There are three treasures in Northeast China: ginseng, sable fur and Ula grass.

Xu Dacan brought two things this time. The ginseng was given to Damao, and the mink fur was naturally given to the old man.

(If you want to argue, why didn’t you bring gifts for Lou Xiao’e and Xu Damao’s mother? I will kowtow to you. I always did that back then. I don’t know why…)

When we walked out of the alley, people on the street were posting promotional materials on the wall.

Look at the red arrow, the promotional materials and the gourd that went wrong

Xu Dacan took a look and saw that what they had posted was "Measures for the Prevention and Control of Liver Fluke Disease". He was not unfamiliar with this disease, which could be said to have a long history.

This disease is a foodborne parasitic disease, mainly caused by eating raw or undercooked fish, shrimp, and snails.

Lou Xiao'e even went up to ask about it. The street staff sighed and said, "I don't know what's going on recently. Many people have contracted this disease. The higher-ups asked us to post promotional materials in alleys. Comrade, it's a good opportunity for you to learn from them and prevent the spread of the disease."

In the 1960s, our medical level was far less advanced than it is today.

Many of the diseases that were very troublesome during this period have been completely eliminated in the future.

For example, schistosomiasis, kala-azar, malaria, filariasis, hookworm disease, etc.

There are also the four pests that everyone is familiar with: flies, mosquitoes, rats, and bedbugs...

"..."

Xu Dacan was absorbed in thinking about these things when he turned around and saw something extraordinary!

His brother, Xu Damao was standing on the manhole cover!

Xu Dacan pulled him away and then forced him to jump three times!

Xu Damao looked helpless: "No, Dacan you..."

"Jump three times quickly!" Xu Dacan insisted.

Seeing that Damao was still hesitating, Xu Dacan said again: "You don't want to jump, right? Today is Sunday, I will hit you 7 times, and you won't be unlucky."

When Xu Damao heard this, he jumped three times on the spot.

Lou Xiao'e came over at some point, and when she saw the two brothers like this, she laughed so hard that she couldn't even straighten her back: "Geese, geese, geese, Dacan, you're so funny. You still believe in this, you're a little feudal..."

Xu Damao also came back to his senses, laughing so hard that his eyes could not be seen: "Moth, let me tell you, my father has not allowed me to step on the horse gourd since I was a child. If I stepped on it accidentally, he would slap me three times."

It was a rare occasion that Lou Xiao'e had something in common with him: "My dad is the same, it's so funny, goose goose goose..."

After this little episode, the three of them quickly left the alley and went to the bus stop to wait for the bus.

In the past, Xu Damao would ride a bicycle when he went back to visit his parents.

It's impossible not to admire the people of this era. They even ride bicycles back and forth for dozens of miles.

But generally they don't return on the same day, they stay there overnight before returning.

What's more, Xu Damao was carrying Lou Xiao'e, who weighed at least 100 pounds even if she was light, which shows his physical fitness.

But today, Xu Dacan is here, so it’s not appropriate to ride a bicycle. We can’t let him sit on the beam!

After getting in the car, Xu Dacan realized the reason why his brother didn't like riding in a car - Damao was actually carsick.

No wonder he quickly grabbed a seat by the window as soon as he got on the bus, and hesitantly asked Xu Dacan and Lou Xiaoe to change seats, because he was afraid that Dacan would see him making a fool of himself later.

The road conditions in this era are really bad.

The roads in the city are still flat, but once you leave the city and get onto the dirt road, things start to get bumpy.

The farther away from the city, the bumpier the road became. Even Xu Dacan's upper palate was bumped against the lower palate, let alone Xu Damao.

During the journey, he leaned out of the window and vomited twice...

Xu Dacan realized belatedly that it was no wonder that he didn't eat breakfast.

I'll have to spit it out later anyway, so it doesn't matter whether I eat it or not...

Finally, he got off the bus. Xu Damao was the first to rush out without waiting for the car to stop. He ran to the roadside and vomited again.

Lou Xiao'e felt disgusted and didn't want to go over, so Xu Dacan stayed with her.

As a result, Damao even complained: "Brother, are you just going to stand there and watch? You could at least give me a pat on the back!"

Xu Dacan rolled his eyes and almost rolled to the back of his head: "Brother, do you have any common sense? You can't take pictures of people who are carsick. The more you take pictures, the more they want to vomit."

Xu Damao stamped his feet and beat his chest: "I was wondering why I vomited so much before, it turns out that they were the ones who filmed me!"

"..."

Xu Dacan's uncle's house is the second house at the entrance of the village.

There is no courtyard wall, the ground has been hardened and is quite clean.

This time, Xu Damao and Lou Xiao'e also came with a lot of bags.

They are all dried goods, like peanuts, vermicelli, dried mushrooms, black fungus, white fungus and so on.

Even though it’s just a small amount of stuff, even for Xu Damao, a projectionist, it took him a long time to save it.

Xu Damao went up and knocked on the door. After he shouted twice, an old man came out of the house.

He pointed at Xu Dacan and said to him, "Dad, look who's here!"

Xu Damao's father looked Xu Dacan up and down in surprise and shouted excitedly: "Dacan?!"

Xu Dacan hurried forward and called out, "Uncle, you still remember me."

Xu Damao's father is not called Xu Wude. In the TV series, he and Xu Damao's mother only appeared in the last three episodes. They didn't have many scenes and their names were not clearly stated.

In fact, judging from the name of Xu Dacan’s father Xu Hang, his uncle cannot have a three-character name. Wouldn’t that be the same as the two brothers Damao and Dacan?
