The Beginning of Siheyuan: The Pig Killer of Qinjia Village

Time flies and it is already the weekend. Today is the 16th day of the fifth lunar month, a good day.

Chang Wei decided to take advantage of the weekend when everyone in the courtyard was together to treat everyone to a meal, as the boy's marriage could be brought forward but not postponed after twelve days.

Early in the morning, he rode his tricycle and brought back fifty kilograms of pork, several sets of offal, ten white-striped chickens, ten fish, and some vegetables.

Since they were inviting everyone in the courtyard to dinner, the meal was held in the courtyard. Ten tables were compactly placed in the open space in front of the He family's door, and He Yuzhu was in charge of it all.

The tables, chairs, benches, plates and so on were of course provided by each household in the compound. Whoever owns the plate, the leftover food will be packed up as that household's. Even if there is leftover soup, it will be full of oil.

He Yuzhu is a smart guy. He just runs to the front yard and finds helpers in the kitchen. Several aunties including Yang Ruihua come to help in the front yard.

There are advantages to coming to help. After the food in the pot is put into plates, the remaining food can be divided. Originally, it all belonged to the chef, but He Yuzhu didn't want it because no one at home would eat so much.

A table of dishes costs about ten yuan, and the dishes are more sumptuous than those at Jia Dongxu’s wedding. Since we have invited them, we can’t be too stingy, right? We should be happy to have a son.

At noon, Chang Wei was at the table with the masters, drinking a cup with them, thanking them and saying some polite words, and the people in the courtyard were very satisfied with their meal. Of course, there was no shortage of people who ruined the atmosphere, and Jia Zhang's eating style was like a whirlwind, sweeping away the food on the plate, which was simply amazing.

After the show, each family took back the tables, chairs, benches and plates, and they could take the leftovers with them without having to help wash up.

Chang Wei sat in the gazebo to make toys for the children. He specially bought a pile of wood and planned to make a carousel, a slide, a swing, a seesaw, etc.

The small ones will be kept at home for the children to play with, and the large ones will be moved to the courtyard in the alley, which will become a paradise for the children.

This is a big project and it cannot be completed in a short time. I have to take time out every day to do some of it.

He Yuzhu watched curiously from the side. "Brother Wei, you also have this skill."

"It's inherited from my ancestors, I guess." Chang Wei smiled and answered casually, changing the subject to praise. "Zhu Zi, this is the first time I've tasted your cooking. You've learned a lot."

He Yuzhu was very excited when talking about cooking, and said confidently, "Brother Wei, our city mainly serves Shandong cuisine, but I am actually better at Sichuan cuisine."

"Really? So your Sichuan cuisine is better. I'll have to try it tomorrow."

"No problem, Brother Wei. I'll show you my skills next time we have a break."

"Okay! Come home after you have a rest and I'll cook for you." Chang Wei laughed. He felt that Sha Zhu was doing well now, so he gave him one more reminder. "By the way, Zhuzi, the situation Uncle He is worried about should be fine. There's no need to be like this.

I heard that the widow he was with, the white widow, had three children. Uncle He was so suspicious that he frightened himself and left others to raise children for nothing. You can't know a person's heart, but you can know his face. After all, they are not your own children. If they don't provide for your old age, you will still have to bear the burden.

You can persuade him, or be more careful yourself. You don't have to worry about the rain, but you have to get married and have children, and expand your family. All of this will cost money..."

In the plot, He Daqing was not affected at all, otherwise he could have run to Baoding, a distance of more than 100 kilometers, and be safe?

After the White Widow died, she was finally driven back by the three white-eyed and wolf-eyed people, who helplessly asked Sha Zhu to take care of her in her old age. What was the purpose of this? Was it because the White Widow was good at kung fu? Was she good at skills?

"Brother Wei, I will take Yu Shui out to play later, and meet dad and talk to him..." He Yuzhu is not stupid, he just never thought about it in this direction. Dad only said that he did this because he was afraid of dragging them down.

After hearing this, if everything is really fine, then there must be something wrong. Could it be that he was deceived by the White Widow and was really trying to frame others?

My dad earns eighty or ninety yuan a month, and he only takes out ten yuan a month for Yu Shui's living expenses. Doesn't that mean the rest of the money is used to support others?

If the family he supported turned out to be ungrateful, then the final burden would definitely fall on me. If I didn't take care of him in his old age, what would others say about me? It seemed like I had to test my father's opinion...

"It's enough for you to know this. Come on, I'll get you some canned food from our factory to try. You can't buy it on the market." Chang Wei smiled and stood up.

"Okay, thank you Brother Wei." He Yuzhu was not polite. The point was that the canned food from the Victory Canning Factory was military supplies and he had never tasted it.

"You're welcome." Chang Wei went to the kitchen and took two of each can of Shengli Canned Food from the cupboard. "Zhu Zi, I'll give you two of each to try."

"Brother Wei, I'll just pick two to try." He Yuzhu picked up two cans of luncheon meat and two cans of fruit and held them in his hands. "That's enough. Brother Wei, please call Yushui for me. I'll wait for her at the gate." He took the cans and sent them home first.

Chang Wei smiled. This boy is quite interesting.

When I walked to the bedroom door, I saw Lou Xiao'e, He Yushui, and Qin Jingru, the three girls were making a lot of noise, chattering and teasing the two little ones, making them giggle.

"Yushui, Zhuzi said he wants to take you out to play. He will wait for you at the gate. Push the bicycle up for convenience."

"Got it, Brother Awei."

……

He Yuzhu took the can home and put it on the table. He locked the door and went to the front door to meet He Yushui.

"Yushui, why did you push the bicycle here? Doesn't Brother Wei need it?"

"Brother Awei is making toys for the baby and won't go out." He Yushui said eagerly. "Brother, how about I take you on the ride?"

She would sit with her legs limp and her calves couldn't reach her legs when she sat on the butt seat.

"Haha~ It's better to walk faster. Be obedient and I'll take you to Wangfujing and buy some delicious food." He Yuzhu knew her level. The female driver was too scary.

"Brother, you are so annoying." He Yushui was as angry as a little dolphin. She had walked around Wangfujing so many times but still had no interest in it, let alone delicious food.

On the way, He Yuzhu asked, "Yushui, what delicious food did Brother Wei give you to eat to make you so plump and white?"

No matter how old a woman is, she will be unhappy when she hears the word fat.

He Yushui punched down with her little fist, and the angry little dolphin revived. "Brother, can you speak? Why am I fat?"

"I'm wrong. She's fair and tender, and she's almost grown into a young lady." He Yuzhu chuckled and said, "Then tell me what delicious food you eat every day."

"Hmph~ That's about right." He Yushui answered casually. "Nothing special. Jingru and I each have two eggs in the morning. At noon and in the evening, we usually have four dishes and one soup. We can't finish the fruit snacks. Aunt Qing's chicken soup is the best..."

He Yuzhu was surprised. She ate so well every day. No wonder Yu Shui had become plump and white in just half a year. She had obviously grown taller, and the fabrics of her clothes were all good.

The 100 yuan I gave him has probably been spent long ago. The 10 yuan I prepared for a month hasn't started yet. Only 10 yuan a month is enough. Anyway, it's no use giving money to others, so it's better to give more rainwater.

"No wonder our rainwater is so beautiful."

"That's right, brother. I still have pocket money, one dollar a week. Brother Awei said that girls should be raised in wealth and not take detours." He Yushui proudly took out a stack of change. "I don't even know what to buy, I've saved so much."

He Yuzhu nodded silently in his heart. Yes, he should be raised in luxury, but the money should be paid by his father. "Yushui, you have to ask our father for money. Our father only earns 80 or 90 yuan a month, which is not enough to spend. You can't spend all of Brother Wei's money. Look at Brother Wei's family. There are so many people, and now there are two babies. There are many places to spend money."

He Yushui nodded thoughtfully after hearing this. She felt that what her elder brother said made sense. Brother Awei and his family were so good to her, so she had to ask her father to give her more money. What if the family didn't have enough money? She was the aunt of two little babies. She made up her mind. She would ask for money when she saw her father in the afternoon...
