The Beginning of Siheyuan: The Pig Killer of Qinjia Village

At 3:30 in the afternoon, Chang Wei and his wife arrived at the Liang family.

At the intersection, the Ding brothers, who were carrying large and small bags, had already been asked to ride their bicycles back to the village first.

Liang Ladi opened the door and was instantly delighted. "Brother Awei and Sister Huairu, you are here!" She quickly pulled the two into the house.

Qin Huairu and Liang Ladi held hands as soon as they met, and greeted people obediently after entering the house. "Hello, Auntie."

Ding Yan sat cross-legged on the bed sewing shoe soles, waving with a smile on her face. "Okay, okay! Ah Wei, Huai Ru, come and sit here."

She was looking forward to Chang Wei's arrival. When Liang Ladi opened the door, she stared at the door. Sure enough, she saw the good son-in-law she had been thinking about. She didn't need to guess who the beautiful girl was. Qin Huairu, she had already heard about her daughter.

Chang Wei saw that Ding Yan was in much better spirits, so he walked over to her with a smile, sat down in front of her, and spoke warm words. "Mom, you've been sitting in this position for too long, it's not good for your waist. You can still mend the soles of your shoes with a pillow under your waist."

"Okay, Mom will listen to you." Ding Yan felt warmer in her heart than if she had a hot pack. She held his hand and the smile on her face became even brighter.

Qin Huairu took a step back and whispered with Liang Ladi, and handed the package to her. "Sister Ladi, these are the clothes and shoes that the head of the family bought for you, as well as a Plum watch and Friendship Cream. Go inside and try them on."

Liang Ladi's face was filled with a happy smile, and her heart was filled with sweetness, almost dying of sweetness. But seeing that Qin Huairu was not wearing anything and holding nothing in her hands, "Sister Huairu, then you..."

Qin Huairu smiled gently and took out a lady's Plum Blossom watch from her pocket. "Silly girl, you don't know what the boss's temper is like! He must have everything. The things have been taken back. I was afraid that the watch would attract attention, so I took it off after wearing it for a while. Come in and try it on. We are similar in body shape, and I bought it according to my size. I don't know if it will fit."

"Yeah!" Liang Ladi nodded excitedly.

Qin Huairu whispered a few more words to her, and Liang Ladi walked into the house with clothes in her hand, blushing.

Ding Yan, who was chatting with Chang Wei, saw her daughter carrying something into the room. When she saw Qin Huairu, who hadn't sat down yet, she waved to her. "Huairu, come and sit here."

"Hey! Thank you, auntie."

"They are all family members."

Qin Huairu walked up and sat next to Chang Wei, sighing in her heart, the head of the family is too powerful, how come Ladi's mother looks at him more intimately than her own daughter, and even looks at her like her own daughter, loving the whole family, this is too...

"Mom, this is a dessert for you, you can try it later. I don't know your clothing size, so I bought you a piece of cotton cloth, you need to take care of it yourself." After chatting for a while, Chang Wei remembered that he was still holding something in his hand! He put the package next to Ding Yan.

"These things are so expensive, why spend the money..." Ding Yan's mouth was full of the nagging of an old mother, but she couldn't suppress the smile on her face.

"Auntie, you can use this on a daily basis. It smells nice and moisturizes your face and hands." Qin Huairu took out a box of Friendship Cream from her pocket and put it in her hand.

"I'm already this old, it's a waste to use this..."

"Mom, I want to call you sister when I see you. You are still young!"

……

Chang Wei coaxed Ding Yan to smile, and at this moment, Liang Ladi came out wearing a watch and a light blue floral dress. "Brother Awei, does it look good?" Her voice was filled with joy and shyness.

Chang Wei looked at her with a hint of surprise in his eyes. "Beautiful, very beautiful, very beautiful."

Liang Ladi, wearing a blue floral dress, is like a blooming flower, exuding a playful, lively, fresh and sweet breath. She wears a silver watch on her wrist, and the black strap contrasts with her fair skin, revealing a touch of elegance. And her exquisite figure and exposed slender calves add a touch of sexiness and enchantment to her.

This kind of mixed temperament does not feel out of place on her, but is natural. She exudes youthful vitality and reveals a charming style. If she walks on the street, she is bound to become the focus of everyone's attention.

Liang Ladi's eyebrows curved and her cheeks flushed with joy when she received Chang Wei's praise. What could be better than being praised by the man she loves?

Qin Huairu walked up to her gently, took her around, and said playfully, "Sister Ladi, what you are wearing makes my heart flutter. Do you think it looks good?"

Ding Yan was also amazed by her daughter's beauty. The most important thing was the watch, which was not something that ordinary people could afford. It was clear at a glance how Chang Wei felt about his daughter.

Then he looked at Chang Wei with satisfaction. He would be willing to trade his own son for this son-in-law...

……

Shared kitchen!

Chang Wei took a bag of premium flour from the tricycle. Normal household flour nowadays is more or less mixed with wheat bran. Only the premium flour at 1.8 yuan per pound can reach the level of medium-gluten flour for making dough.

Chang Wei prepared to explain while making it. He took about two pounds of flour and added water to a porcelain bowl to knead the dough. "Mom, you see, you only need to knead the dough to a medium hardness. You should all be familiar with this. Next, you need to let the dough rest for half an hour, and knead it every ten minutes or so in between, which is conducive to the formation of gluten."

The mother and daughter nodded. These steps were familiar to them. As long as they could cook, they would understand them.

Chang Wei smiled and used the time to chat while waiting for the noodles to rise. "Mom, Ladi, the key to making cold noodles is to let the noodles rise and wash them. It's very simple, so you have to do it behind others. If you have time in the next two days, check if there is a separate courtyard nearby, ask the price, and we can buy one. The place you live now is too small, it's neither comfortable nor convenient for making cold noodles. And it will be convenient for me to come, you have a place to live, right?"

When Ding Yan heard about buying a yard, she hesitated. She only had a little over 100 yuan in her hand, which was given to her by Chang Wei when she sold pigs last time... "Awei, why don't we buy a yard later..."

She thought about saving money after making money and buying a yard in a good location in the city for Chang Wei and his family, but now...

Chang Wei knew why she was hesitating! It was because she didn't have any money! "Mom, I have money, why do you have to be so formal with me? I'm your good son, and don't you want to have a grandson soon?" He winked playfully while speaking, and the meaning was self-evident.

Liang Ladi blushed immediately and looked at my mother with a hint of expectation in her heart.

As expected, the grandson's charm was infinite. Ding Yan stopped hesitating and smiled. "Then I'll ask your dad to ask around in the factory tomorrow and buy a smaller yard first."

I thought to myself, since the money I earn belongs to Chang Wei and my daughter, I should buy a small one first, and then buy a big one when I have saved enough money. The key is to leave space for my son-in-law and daughter, otherwise how can I have a grandson...

After the dough has risen, Chang Wei starts to wash it. He adds water to a porcelain basin and keeps kneading the dough until it becomes very white.

"Look, mom, you can change the water after the batter is washed out like this. Just repeat this process until the batter can no longer be washed out of the dough, and only gluten will remain in the dough." Chang Wei explained as he poured the batter into an empty porcelain basin. "Let the batter settle for at least three hours, preferably overnight. Add the water soaked in the fermented rice, knead it several times, and ferment it for an hour."

After washing the noodles, Chang Wei looked at the time and saw it was almost five o'clock. "Ladi, let's take the batter inside to settle and cook it later. Let's cook first. Dad will be back soon and other families will use the kitchen soon."
