Siheyuan: Rebirth 52 years later, escaping from famine in Beijing

At Tian Deren’s home.

For the whole day, Lu Weimin stayed in the secret room and read various martial arts secrets. He only did one thing: when he felt tired, he would go out to the yard to practice the various kung fu he had just learned. This period of practice time was hurried and fulfilling, and in the blink of an eye it was time to go back.

Before returning, Lu Weimin of course had to review today's achievements. He flipped open the panel.

In just one day, Lu Weimin's eight new boxing techniques and skills all reached level five, and his overall martial arts level also improved. This progress really surprised and puzzled him.

what's going on?

This speed of improvement is incredible!

What's more, I didn't specifically train in comprehensive martial arts, but I actually had a breakthrough. You know, I was only at the top of the fourth level yesterday, and now I jumped up a level.

oh! I see.

I have a strong talent and a previous foundation in martial arts, so I can learn new boxing, gun, stick and club techniques with half the effort. Just like the protagonists in novels who have deep internal strength, no matter what kind of martial arts they practice, they can learn it very quickly and easily.

Thinking of this, Lu Weimin became even more excited.

This is really a great piece of good news that came unexpectedly.

"Ha! When Master comes back and sees my improvement in martial arts, he will surely be surprised!"

Lu Weimin rode home after confirming that there was no problem with the secret room door. On the way back, he planned to teach Zhihan Chinese martial arts. Not only can it strengthen the body, but it can also better protect oneself in case of encountering bad guys, because at this time, Beijing is not peaceful.

Lu Weimin also specially selected Wing Chun as Cheng Zhihan's training program. This boxing style was created by a woman, so it is very suitable for women to practice. However, Xiaohan is quite busy. She has to go to school during the week and practice dancing on weekends. She is not sure if she has time to practice Chinese martial arts.

Lu Weimin decided to ask Xiaohan what she thought. If she was willing to learn, he would teach her. If she was not willing, forget it. Practicing Chinese martial arts requires self-awareness, otherwise it will not be effective.

After returning to the courtyard, Lu Weimin smelled a fragrance as soon as he walked into the front yard, "Hey! Who made chicken stewed with mushrooms today? It smells so good!" Then he pushed his bicycle into the middle yard.

Qin Huairu was holding her child and wandering in front of the Jia family's door, looking towards Lu Weimin's house from time to time. "What tricks does this woman have?" Lu Weimin knew what she was planning as soon as he saw Qin Huairu's eyes. Seeing Lu Weimin coming back, Qin Huairu looked flustered and turned to go into the Jia family.

At this time, Lu Weimin heard the voices of Cheng Zhihan, He Yushui and Sha Zhu talking in the room, and immediately understood.

After parking his bike, he went into the house. "Brother Weimin, you're back!" Cheng Zhihan happily went forward to greet him. "Brother Weimin!" He Yushui also called out in a very polite manner.

The two girls had water stains on their hands, obviously they had just washed vegetables or dishes. Sha Zhu showed a simple and sincere smile and said, "Brother Weimin, thank you for helping me find a job!"

"You exposed Yi Zhonghai's true identity last night and helped me get back the 260 yuan. Thank you very much! I bought some food to cook for you to show my appreciation. I hope you don't mind." Hearing this, Sha Zhu said happily: "Brother Weimin, would you like to have some wine?"

"Then let's drink something!" Lu Weimin had never drunk alcohol in this era, and he felt a little thirsty after hearing this.

"Yushui, go buy two bottles of Xifeng wine and two bottles of Beibingyang soda." Shazhu took out a dollar and gave it to He Yushui. "Okay! Brother!" He Yushui was very happy and took the money.

"Yushui, I'll go with you!" Cheng Zhihan said. "It would be even better if Sister Xiaohan goes with us!" He Yushui took Cheng Zhihan's hand and walked out happily. Lu Weimin looked at this scene and smiled with satisfaction.

It's fine to use Sha Zhu's money! Just let him be a free cook. He realized that although Cheng Zhihan and he had a good relationship, they still needed a playmate of the same age. Although He Yushui was four years younger than Cheng Zhihan, the age difference between them was not that big.

The aroma of stewed chicken and mushrooms kept wafting into Lu Weimin's nose.

Lu Weimin had watched the original TV series and was particularly impressed by this stewed chicken and mushrooms.

He walked over and asked, "Shazhu, did you learn this stewed chicken and mushroom from Hongbinlou?"

He stared at the stew in the pot. [Cooking Skill +1]

[Cooking Skills +1] [Cooking Skills +1]

Sha Zhu smiled and said, "Yes! This is one of my favorite dishes, but I don't know if Brother Weimin and Sister Xiaohan like it!"

... Please like it...

Lu Weimin replied: "If it's delicious, of course I'd like to eat it!"

Sha Zhu said confidently: "My master said that my stewed chicken and mushrooms are very good. Brother Weimin will know when he tastes it later!"

Lu Weimin found that Sha Zhu was very confident when talking about cooking. It seemed that he was a natural chef.

"Okay! I'm looking forward to it!" Lu Weimin also smiled.

At this time, Sha Zhu took out a stack of money and said to Lu Weimin sincerely:

"Brother Weimin, this is the extra 260 yuan from Yi Zhonghai. If you hadn't exposed Yi Zhonghai, I would have been fooled and helped him count the money.

This not only allowed me to get back the 260 yuan living expenses that my father sent to Xiaohan and me, but also allowed me to get these compensations.

And you helped me find such a good job. I'll give you this money."

"Thank you!"

Lu Weimin took the 260 yuan from Sha Zhu.

Because he helped Sha Zhu so much and completely changed his fate, he felt it was very reasonable to get the money and did not feel embarrassed at all.

He felt very at ease after taking the money from Sha Zhu! Let Sha Zhu become a free chef! 6/7

Seeing Lu Weimin took the money, Sha Zhu was very happy. He felt that his embarrassing incident that day was completely over and would never be mentioned again.

Lu Weimin took out ten yuan from his wallet and said:

"Shazhu, there is something I want to discuss with you. I am preparing for the college entrance examination recently, and Xiaohan is also studying, so we have no time to cook.

How about that? You need to cook every day anyway, and I'll pay for the food, so you can help us cook as well.

In addition, I have another request: meat at least five days a week, soup and vegetables, and rice and fine grains. If you don't have enough money, just ask me. What do you think? "

In this era, five yuan was equivalent to a month's food expenses for a family like Jia Zhang's.

But ten yuan is still not enough to meet Lu Weimin’s requirements, so just add more.

When he revealed Yi Zhonghai's true identity, helped Sha Zhu get back the money his father sent and helped him find a job, it was partly to take revenge on Yi Zhonghai and dismantle the pension alliance.

The other part was to let the future chef serve him, such as helping him cook. Hearing Lu Weimin's words, Sha Zhu agreed immediately without any hesitation.

In his opinion, since Lu Weimin had helped him so much, it would be too simple to just cook more meals together. Why not agree?

I was just wondering how to repay Lu Weimin, but now I have a solution, and I am very happy. "You don't need to give me the ten dollars, I have money!"

"That won't do! You'd better keep that money for emergencies. Apprentices only get a dozen yuan a month. If you don't take it, you'll have to find the ten yuan a month for living expenses by yourself. It may be okay in the short term, but you won't be able to hold on for a long time. Xiaohan and I will feel uneasy about spending your money!" Sha Zhu thought it made sense. Ten yuan a month was okay in the short term, but it wouldn't work in the long term, so he accepted it.

Outside, Cheng Zhihan and He Yushui each carried a bag, walked into the middle courtyard hand in hand, talking and laughing. Qin Huairu, who was sitting at the door, saw two bottles of Beibingyang soda and a bottle of Xifeng wine in He Yushui's hand, and was so angry that her heart was broken. She felt very uncomfortable and felt that these things should have been shared with her, not for the Lu family to enjoy. "Not only eating meat and drinking wine, but also drinking beverages and famous wines! Sha Zhu actually spent so much money to please the surname Lu, how stupid!" "No, I must find a chance to ask for something to eat!" Qin Huairu became more and more unwilling to give up.

"Brother Wei Min, Brother Sha Zhu, we are back!" "Brother Sha, Brother Wei Min, we are back!" Cheng Zhihan and He Yushui said almost in unison.

Sha Zhu responded: "Thank you for your hard work! Wash your hands and get ready to eat!"

He turned to his sister and said, "Yushui, go back and get a bag of peanuts from the bottom shelf of the cupboard. How can we drink without peanuts?"

Lu Weimin smiled when he heard this. He knew that this was Sha Zhu's habit. As long as there were peanuts and Xifeng Liquor or Laobai Gan, peanuts were indispensable when drinking.

"Okay!" He Yushui ran out happily. After taking the peanuts out, he was stopped by Qin Huairu just after a few steps. "Yushui, wait a minute, I have something to tell you!" He Yushui looked up at Qin Huairu, blinked her big eyes and asked, "Sister Qin, what do you want to tell me?" Qin Huairu reminded, "After Silly Brother finishes cooking, remember to tell him that I have something to talk to him about and ask him to come over."

At this time, Jia Dongxu came back from the toilet outside. He smelled the fragrance from Lu Weimin's house and couldn't help swallowing his saliva. "The Lu family ate meat again today? They totally disregarded the feelings of other neighbors! They are the only ones in the compound who eat meat every day and never share any with us. How can this be justified? Such selfish people will get their comeuppance sooner or later!" Qin Huairu's face was a little subtle after hearing this. After thinking for a while, she said, "Dongxu, you are wrong this time! The one who bought the vegetables was Shazhu. I don't know what's wrong with him today. He bought a lot of vegetables.
