Siheyuan: I am so good that I became a god of war

"As for wild boars, we'll buy them at six cents per pound."

After a brief exchange of greetings, a purchasing staff member weighed the two wild boars. The two wild boars weighed a total of 1,125 kilograms, and Ding Weidong was finally awarded 420 yuan based on the weight of 1,050 kilograms.

After the incident, Ding Weidong drove home. When he passed the factory gate, Wang Kaishan handed him a bag of pig stomachs.

"Chief, everyone wants to pay out of their own pockets to express their gratitude. If you don't accept it..." Wang Kaishan said in a low voice.

"Okay, let's just leave it at that." Ding Weidong shook his head and said, "Work hard and we'll talk about it after the New Year."

After leaving, he took out two wild boars, one big and one small, from the storage space in a sparsely populated place, and added a goat and placed them on both sides of the rear frame before continuing on his journey.

It was about four o'clock, the sky was overcast and it seemed that a heavy snowstorm was about to fall. If it didn't snow tonight, there would definitely be a thick layer of snow tomorrow.

As usual, Yan Bugui was pacing around the front courtyard. When he saw Ding Weidong appear, he quickly ran forward to approach him.

"Comrade Xiao Ding, is this a second-hand bicycle you bought?" Minister Yan asked quickly: "Oh, this bicycle looks almost new... Hey, this is a wild boar and a goat!"

When he saw what was in the car, his jaw dropped. There was all delicious meat in front of him, and he wanted to grab it all immediately.

But Ding Weidong ignored his greed, holding the front of the car with one hand and lifting the rear with the other, and was about to cross the threshold. Minister Yan hurried forward and said:

"Comrade Xiao Ding asked me to help you, asked me to help you..."

Ding Weidong, who had experienced the plot of "Birds in the Courtyard" many times, naturally understood why the elder was so proactive. His mind was not pure, he just wanted to take advantage of her.

Ding Weidong said coldly, "No, I don't need your help."

"Don't touch my booty!"

"Even if I help you carry your stuff home, you won't get a single wool from it."

Minister Yan was speechless when he heard this. "How could this happen? After all, we are good neighbors. Isn't it normal for us to help each other?"

Then he added: "You brought so much meat, how can three people finish it..."

Minister Yan knew that Ding Weidong had a tough personality and would never share easily. But he was determined to keep his promise until the other party could no longer bear it before he could get some benefits.

He thought to himself, "No matter what, you will give me some money in the end." With this thought in mind, he hurriedly followed.

When they got back to the neighborhood of their home, Ding Weidong called out, "Qingyu, I'm back! Come and open the door!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the door was opened, and Li Qingyu and Xiao Yuer were seen running towards him.

"Meat, there is so much meat." Xiao Yuer was delighted to find the pigs and goats in front of her. She danced with joy.

"Xiao Yu'er, go inside, it's very cold outside." Ding Weidong reminded him as he carried the wild boar and goat to the kitchen. At this time, Li Qingyu had taken down the various prey hanging on the car, prepared to put them in the house, and opened the kitchen door for Ding Weidong.

When Ding Weidong unloaded the prey from the car and pushed it into the house, he saw Xiao Yuer poking the little wild boar with a small wooden stick, and he didn't seem afraid at all.

Many people have gathered in front of the door, including Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong, Jia Dongxu and others. They have all returned home from get off work today. Because it is the last day of the twelfth lunar month, they only need to wait for the last day of work to enjoy the holiday.

This year's New Year's Eve happened to be the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, and Li Qingyu had already prepared a lot of dough today, preparing to make noodles such as steamed buns and dumplings for tomorrow night. She was originally planning to buy more meat tomorrow, and this batch of hunted meat just filled the gap.

"Xiao Yu'er, go back to the house. It's really cold outside." Ding Weidong was carrying two pig hind legs in one hand and a goat leg in the other hand and was about to send them to the kitchen when he heard Yi Zhonghai blink his eyes and stop him, saying: "Wait a moment, Comrade Ding, wait a moment..."

"Yi Zhonghai, I have nothing to talk to you about." Ding Weidong came to the kitchen door with the prey, but he didn't expect Yi Zhonghai to follow him.

"Ding Weidong, this is what's going on. You have two wild boars and a goat here. You won't be able to finish eating them all in a short time. Do you want to share some with your neighbors in the compound? This way, you can get along better with each other in the future..." Yi Zhonghai said righteously.

"Ha, do I have to give something to be friendly? This is the first time I've heard of this. Okay, I'll ask Director Wang to comment on your fallacy!" Ding Weidong said.

"Uh...it's just a suggestion. If you don't want to accept it, forget it." Yi Zhonghai responded with a wry smile.

"If you want to please others, you should pay for it yourself. You shouldn't use other people's things to be good people." Ding Weidong sneered and said, "You do this just to make it easy, but everyone will remember that you gave everyone the favor of meat."

"If you are unwilling, you are stingy. We should still be grateful to you. Yi Zhonghai, you are so sinister! You are so calculating."

Ding Weidong sneered and walked into the room, closing the door tightly. Yi Zhonghai had no room to defend himself, so he said angrily, "Okay, okay, let's go home and cook dinner."

Everyone returned disappointed.

Ding Weidong found a large wooden basin and placed it outside the kitchen. In the kitchen, Li Qingyu was boiling water in preparation for shaving the pigs and sheep.

Ding Weidong was processing the pigs at the door.

"Wow, there are so many delicious foods." Sha Zhu came back, the purple and blue marks on his face were still clearly visible, but he didn't seem to care about them.

"Shazhu, come and help shave the hair of these pigs and sheep, and clean their internal organs, how about that?" Ding Weidong raised his eyebrows and said, "I'll give you a pig's head and two pig's lungs as a reward."

"Okay, okay." Sha Zhu immediately smiled. "I'll come and help right away, but I have to go home and get some tools first!"

"Brother Dong, I can do it myself..." Li Qingyu said unwillingly. She was reluctant to give away a pig's head to others.

"Let him do it. We need to concentrate on preparing dinner." Ding Weidong replied, "Get a pheasant. We'll make duck wrapped chicken tonight."

Sha Zhu was a professional. He immediately started shaving and gutting the pigs. As he was doing so, he said with a smile, "This afternoon I taught my students to kill two wild boars. My goodness, they were also shot with arrows."

After Sha Zhu finished dehairing and gutting the pigs, he had nothing else to do, and he couldn't find anything to steal. The two wild boars were eventually taken away by Li Huaide.

"I sent this. I made 420 yuan!" Ding Weidong said calmly. At this time, the pig's stomach was ready, and Li Qingyu had also cleaned the pheasant.

Everyone who heard it was dumbfounded, and then filled with envy and jealousy!

Ding Weidong went into the kitchen to cook the pork belly and chicken. He then stuffed the chicken pieces and seasonings into the cleaned pork belly, put them into a large earthenware pot, and cooked the stew in a cast iron stove in the small fire room next to his bedroom.

Everything was arranged, and Ding Weidong went out to observe Sha Zhu's work progress.

Yan Bugui and his three sons were also watching here. Their eyes were red, and they wished they could carry the whole pig away.

"Brother Ding, what are you planning to have for dinner?" Li Qingyu asked softly as she walked out of the room.

"We'll have noodles and cook them in chicken soup later," Ding Weidong replied.

"Okay, I'll go knead the dough." Li Qingyu turned and went back to the kitchen. "Come on, Xiaoyuer. It's freezing outside. Come and help your sister."

Li Qingyu was in a very unhappy mood. Yan Jiecheng and Sha Zhu's gazes at her made her feel very uncomfortable.

"I want to watch the pig being slaughtered." Xiao Yuer said, "Can I eat noodles with my sister later?"

"Come in quickly." Li Qingyu pulled Xiao Yuer into the kitchen.

Sha Zhu has already started processing the slaughtered pigs and is currently cleaning the internal organs. He smiled awkwardly and asked, "Ding Weidong, what is your relationship with Li Qingyu? Your last names seem to be different..."

"She and Xiao Yu'er are sisters with the same mother, and Xiao Yu'er and I are brothers with the same father." Ding Weidong replied calmly. This relationship must be explained clearly.

Everyone present was silent for a moment, trying to sort out the complicated relationship between them.

"So, you and Li Qingyu are related by blood." Sha Zhu nodded affirmatively. His obsessed expression clearly revealed his true intentions.

Ding Weidong sneered and brought out a large basin of warm water. He had brought hot water many times before, and all the work was about to be finished. He was about to order Sha Zhu to leave quickly!

After Sha Zhu finished, he said, "Brother Ding, can I help you cut up the pork? Someone who doesn't know how to handle it might make a mess."

"There's no need for that. Just take your portion of the meat back." Ding Weidong said calmly.

"I understand. But you really know how to taste. Little wild boars like this are really delicious." Sha Zhu said with a smile.

"Is there anything special about this?" Yan Bugui, who was standing by, asked, pretending to be his supporting actor.

"Large wild boar meat usually has a strong earthy smell, and even after special processing, some of the smell will remain." Sha Zhu said. "But this small wild boar meat is full of fragrance, without the slightest fishy smell."

"Silly Zhu, you should leave as soon as possible." Ding Weidong frowned and said, "We are done."

Sha Zhu showed a dry smile. He had already decided that he would go back and ask the deaf grandmother to help him find a marriage partner.

Watching Sha Zhu take away a pig's brain and two pig lungs and leave, Yan Bugui's eyes turned back and forth, but he couldn't think of any way to get some meat back from Ding Weidong.

Seeing that Ding Weidong had finished tidying up and was about to close the door, Yan Bugui asked quickly, "Comrade Ding, did you bring back a lot of pig blood? How about giving me some?"

Pig blood is indeed a good thing! You don't need to use meat ration tickets, but it's not easy to buy. Usually you need connections to buy it.

So Yan Bugui thought, even if he could only get some pig blood, it would be good. This would be equivalent to opening a gap in Ding Weidong's solid defense, and he would be able to further expand his opportunities in the future.

"Do you want the pig manure you need?" Ding Weidong sneered and was about to close the door when an unexpected visitor walked in pushing a bicycle.

"Deputy Director Ding!" Director Zhang Jin walked in with a big smile on his face. At this time, Yan Bogui was the only one left in the outer courtyard.

"Director Zhang, why are you here? This is... please come in." Ding Weidong said after a moment of surprise. Director Zhang had already reached the kitchen door and saw two little wild boars and a goat inside.

Ding Weidong led Director Zhang into the living room and closed the door. The lights in the room were bright. After Director Zhang sat down, Li Qingyu, who had just finished rolling noodles, went to prepare two cups of tea and brought them up.

"Director Zhang, we only have some high-quality tea powder here. Please make do with it..." Ding Weidong said.

"That's great." Director Zhang said with a smile, "This is a holiday benefit. I brought it to you. Two pounds of pork and ten pounds of flour. This year's benefit is pretty good."

Director Zhang placed the meat and flour on the small table.

"Thank you, thank you. Director Zhang, for taking the trouble to make a special trip." Ding Weidong said with a smile.

"Let me be frank. There are still some things that need to be dealt with." Director Zhang smiled and continued, "The thing is, there is a man named Bai Wenhua in the security department of the steel rolling mill. He is the younger brother of my instructor. He knew that you sent wild boar meat to the 8th Army, and he also gave Mr. Li two large wild boars and a sheep..."

"I got them all by myself." Ding Weidong answered directly.

"Is that so... Why didn't you consider our police station?" Director Zhang said with a hint of regret: "If you encounter similar situations in the future, please send the goods directly to the police station. No matter what price the steel mill offers, we will accept it."

"Hmm... this question... how about I send a wild boar and a sheep tomorrow?" Ding Weidong hesitated for a moment and replied: "The pig is about 100 kilograms, and the sheep is about 50 to 60 kilograms."

"Of course, that's great." Director Zhang said excitedly, "I didn't expect you to have the ability to hunt, that's amazing!"

"Well, I'd like to order a few dishes tonight and taste the wine together..." Ding Weidong continued.

"No, there are still some matters to be dealt with. By the way, I would like to remind you that I would like to invite you to have a drink at noon tomorrow, how about that?" Then Director Zhang left the table. At this moment, the unique aroma of pig stomach and chicken has filled the entire space.

Yan Bogui paced back and forth in front of the gate. He was now certain that Ding Weidong was the deputy director of the Yangpi Alley Police Station. The Yangpi Alley Police Station supervised a wide area. Yan Bogui wanted to ask Director Zhang for more information, but at that moment he saw the other party's car coming. Yan Bogui hurried forward to salute with a flattering smile on his face. If he had a dog's tail, Yan Bogui would now be a purebred Pekingese.

"Excuse me, Director Zhang, is this Mr. Ding Weidong the deputy director of the Public Security Bureau under your jurisdiction?" Yan Bogui asked, "He looks so young, and seems a little different..."

"Teacher Yan is wrong. Director Ding was a good soldier who won the second-class merit after returning from the battlefield and retired due to injury. He also served as a company commander," Director Zhang said solemnly.

"He should be proud to be your neighbor. Did you see those plaques hanging on his door?"

"We have seen it, we have indeed seen it, and we are deeply proud and honored by it." Yan Bogui hurriedly bowed and responded, muttering to himself: "If there were no plaques, Yi Zhonghai would have intervened long ago."

Seeing Director Zhang leaving in a hurry, Yan Bogui also ran back home in a panic.

In Yan Bugui's living room, six bowls of porridge and twelve fist-sized steamed bread were placed on the dining table. A plate of unpleasant-smelling pickled vegetables was placed on the table.

"The old man is back, let's eat quickly, the weather is so cold." Yang Yuzhen said.

Yan Bugui's one son and three daughters were sitting at the dining table waiting for dinner.

"Why are you so anxious?" Yan Bugui asked anxiously, "Do you know what Ding Weidong does?"

"Isn't he just one person? Well, but I heard that his family has some power..." Yan Jieyi showed a jealous expression.

"What do you know?" Yan Bugui said angrily, "He is also very capable. He is a second-class honorary soldier, retired due to injury, and is also a team leader..."

"Dad, where did you get this information? This is not just nonsense..." Yan Jieyi said in disbelief.
