Siheyuan: Cooking journey

Lou Xiao'e smiled sweetly and nodded obediently.

I feel so happy when I think about going to and from get off work with him and being together every day in the future.

Then, she thought of something and asked with some worry:

"I have a problematic family background and I don't have any education. It should be difficult for me to get into a steel mill, right?"

"It's okay." He Yuzhu comforted.

Although lack of academic qualifications is a shortcoming, it does not constitute a big obstacle in some positions.

The key is which department you go to. If you go to the cafeteria, there is no big problem. No academic qualifications are required, as long as you can cook.

But then again, the threshold for entering the factory is still quite high.

This threshold is mainly based on family background. Cases like Lou Xiao'e have to go through multiple levels of review.

The review process may be cumbersome, but He Yuzhu is not worried about the final result. After all, the working class is now friendly to everyone.

Even some university graduates with the same academic qualifications can be assigned to factories as technicians.

"That's great."

Lou Xiao'e nodded, thinking that she could learn cooking.

"After dinner, I plan to go to the Evergreen Commune."

He Yuzhu looked at her and asked gently, "Do you want to go with us?

I have always planned to go there to get some fresh vegetables to make the canteen menu more diverse.

I happen to have a day off this afternoon, so I can go and investigate. If you come too, we can treat it as a honeymoon trip."

"Go ahead, I've never been to that kind of place!"

Lou Xiao'e said with surprise, her eyes smiling like two crescent moons.

After lunch, the two set off on their journey.

He Yuzhu's cycling skills are as steady as an old dog.

Lou Xiao'e sat in the back, feeling the soft cushion, feeling happy, and her hands tightly wrapped around his waist.

He Yuzhu subconsciously lowered his head and saw the pair of white and tender hands wrapped around his waist. He suddenly felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.

But he quickly shook these distracting thoughts off.

He Yuzhu asked, "Why were you angry just now?" "Is there anything..."

When asked this question, Lou Xiao'e's face turned slightly red, her nose wrinkled, and she said coquettishly:

"You must have remembered it wrongly. I'm not angry at all. I'm in a very good mood."

"..."

Well, that's it.

He Yuzhu suddenly remembered a truth that all modern people understand.

Getting angry for no reason is nonsensical. It's a woman's nature. There's no reason for it.

Who says women are born to be made of water, so they are sentimental?

This person probably has the same problem.

He Yuzhu wisely stopped dwelling on this nonsensical question.

Concentrate on riding.

Evergreen Commune is on the other side of the city, quite a distance away.

Walked a while.

Seeing a small cart selling popsicles covered with a quilt, Lou Xiaoe immediately shouted excitedly,

"Stop the car, stop the car, let's go buy a popsicle."

He Yuzhu glanced over there and advised: "Forget it, don't buy it, it doesn't taste good."

Supplies were scarce, so there were no good popsicles. Basically, they were just sugar water frozen and a stick was inserted into it.

I took a sip and my mouth was filled with the taste of ice chips.

Even so, these popsicles are still in short supply and are usually sold out soon after a vendor’s popsicle cart comes out.

The price is cheap, only three cents per stick, and no ticket is required.

"No, no, just buy one and try it..."

He Yuzhu underestimated Lou Xiao'e's enthusiasm and his bicycle was almost shaken off course. He had no choice but to stop and buy one.

As for why he didn't buy two, it wasn't because he remembered another consensus in modern society: couples only buy one ice cream when shopping to show their affection.

It's simply because you can't hold a bicycle with one hand. But you can drive a Ferrari with one hand.

But riding this kind of large-frame bicycle with your wife, it is easy to hit the wall if you ride with one hand.

“It’s so delicious, so happy…”

Lou Xiao'e was as happy as a child while eating the popsicle.

He Yuzhu couldn't help but shook his head, and suddenly remembered that there was a freezer in the cafeteria, so he could make some ice cream himself.

When the time comes, let Lou Xiao'e see that there is a delicacy called ice cream. In comparison, this popsicle is so unpalatable that she probably won't eat it even if it is given to her for free.

"Hold on tight, be careful not to fall."

He Yuzhu reminded.

"Do you want to eat?"

Lou Xiao'e sat in the back seat, her face flushed, her feet shaking unconsciously, and her other hand involuntarily hugged his waist tightly.

"Don't eat."

He Yuzhu firmly refused and decided to make ice cream for her the next day.

"Humph, if you want to eat, I won't give it to you."

Lou Xiao'e wrinkled her nose, took a big bite viciously, and was panting from the cold.

"It's so cold..."

I finally swallowed the popsicle in my mouth.

Lou Xiao'e stopped eating, looked around, and said doubtfully:

"Aren't we going to Evergreen? I haven't been there, but the direction is wrong. This road is too long, and the other road is closer."

He Yuzhu didn't want to go that way, his mind was a little distracted, and he said casually: "It's okay, I want to stay with you for a while."

Really annoying.

Lou Xiao'e felt soft and sweet in her heart, and subconsciously hugged his waist tightly. She handed him the popsicle with a vicious tone:

"Eat it quickly, or I'll stuff it into your clothes."

Looking at the popsicle being handed to my mouth.

He Yuzhu didn't want to experience the coolness, so he just took a perfunctory bite.

Popsicle in mouth.

It's cool and sweet, and somehow feels good.

"How is it? It tastes good, right?"

Lou Xiao'e was eating an ice lolly with red cheeks.

"It's sweet, not bad."

He Yuzhu pursed his lips and gave an objective evaluation.

Lou Xiao'e's face was so hot that it turned red all the way to her ears. She felt the same way.

"Keep eating, take another bite..."

One popsicle doesn't have much, and with two people eating it, it's gone quickly.

The breeze caresses my cheeks.

He Yuzhu couldn't help but purse his lips and wanted to go back and buy another one. He just felt that the popsicle was not that bad and was quite sweet.

But this thought has not yet drifted away.

Lou Xiao'e suddenly patted his back and said painfully, "Stop the car. My stomach hurts."

"What's wrong?" He Yuzhu stopped quickly.

As soon as Lou Xiao'e got off the car, she squatted down holding her stomach, sounding very distressed.

"I don't know either, my stomach suddenly started hurting badly." I had just finished eating a popsicle and caught a cold, and my stomach suddenly started hurting again.

Are the "relatives" here? He Yuzhu couldn't help but blink.

In modern society, which single guy doesn’t know this common sense? Just drink more hot water.

"Is that coming? The one that comes once a month."

He Yuzhu had nothing to hide from his wife, so he asked directly.

If this is true, to be honest, even though he understands Chinese medicine, he is helpless. He can only drink more hot water, that's all.

"you……"

Lou Xiao'e's face turned red instantly. She looked up at him in surprise, then lowered her head shyly.

"No, I just have a sudden stomachache."

"Maybe I caught a cold because I ate something too cold all of a sudden."

He Yuzhu squatted down without hesitation, held her wrist and took her pulse.

"How do you know this?"

Lou Xiao'e looked up at him with a blushing face, then lowered her head shyly.

"I studied with an old Chinese doctor for a while. His medical skills were average, not very proficient."

He Yuzhu was talking nonsense.

Lou Xiao'e raised her head angrily, her little face flushed, her little nose wrinkled, and she said delicately:

"Who asked you this? How do you know those things about women?"

"..."

Isn't this common sense?

He Yuzhu was stunned for a moment, remembering that in this era, there was a clear boundary between men and women, and women's affairs had always been taboo and regarded as unlucky, so men really didn't understand much.

Moreover, if a man understands these things, he will be considered a vulgar person.

Unlike today's society, every single friend knows that you always have to be prepared and drink more warm water.

"Once, Yu Shui ate a popsicle and had a severe stomachache. She was sent directly to the hospital. The doctor told her not to eat cold food in the next few days, otherwise her stomach would feel worse. I think you look a lot like she did then."

He Yuzhu explained seriously that after all, he had to maintain his glorious image.

As for whether or not rainwater really existed, it actually doesn’t matter. Anyway, my brother said now that she did, then it does.

"Oh……"

Lou Xiao'e's face flushed, she lowered her head, and hummed in a threatening tone:

"Don't say this to other girls casually, or I'll treat you as a pervert."

If he was labeled a pervert just because he asked such a question, then if he said drink more warm water, wouldn't he be sentenced to life imprisonment? He Yuzhu couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

He was originally thinking about whether he should help rub Lou Xiao'e's belly, but now it seems he should give up.

If someone says that you are quite good at it and massage people often, then no matter if you are a pervert or not, you will be sentenced to life imprisonment...
