Siheyuan: I live next door to Xu Damao, my last name is Cao

"Sister Xiao'e, have you eaten yet?"

Lou Xiao'e shook her head subconsciously. She was not hungry just now, so she cooked some noodles for Xu Damao and hadn't eaten anything herself.

"Okay, I'll go back and cook. Come eat with me later. Don't start the fire."

Cao Wei said.

He felt that Lou Xiao'e had just had an argument with Xu Damao and probably didn't want to cook or eat, so he should just make do with a meal with him.

Lou Xiao'e hesitated for a moment, but finally agreed.

It’s just a meal, no big deal, and I’m too lazy to cook.

And Xu Damao won’t be able to come back for a while.

According to previous experience, after Xu Damao quarreled with me, he would always come back late at night and no one knew where he went to fool around.

But why am I feeling guilty?

Lou Xiao'e suddenly realized that she was just going to her neighbor's house to have a meal, what could happen?

Afterwards, Cao Wei returned to his room and started to make a fire and cook.

I looked at the vegetables at home and saw a bunch of garlic shoots I bought.

Cao Wei planned to make three dishes, so he made a dish of stir-fried pork with garlic moss and twice-cooked pork.

Take out a pound of pork from the space and cut it into one third.

One third of the meat is cut into shreds and used to make fried pork with garlic chives, and the rest is sliced ​​and made into twice-cooked pork.

Cao Wei had just finished cutting the meat when Lou Xiao'e pushed the door and walked in.

Seeing Cao Wei busy, he hurried over to help.

"Sister Xiao'e, just go and rest. You don't have to come over. You'll be fine soon."

Lou Xiao'e didn't want to just watch and insisted on helping. Cao Wei couldn't persuade her, so he had to let her help wash the vegetables.

At this time, Lou Xiao'e happily took the garlic shoots to clean them, pinched off the heads and tails, washed away the impurities on the surface of the garlic shoots, and finally handed them to Cao Wei to cut into sections.

There seemed to be nothing else to do except washing the vegetables, so Cao Wei asked Lou Xiao'e to sit aside for a while while he cooked.

Soon, two delicious dishes were served by Cao Wei and placed on the table.

Looking at the two dishes, Cao Wei felt that something was still missing, so he fried some chili and eggs.

These three simple dishes were considered a luxury in that era. It was already very good for an ordinary family to be willing to use oil to stir-fry one dish. After all, oil and water were in short supply in that era.

When three dishes were placed on the table, Lou Xiao'e was also very shocked.

In order to entertain himself, Cao Wei actually cooked three dishes. He couldn't even make it through the day.

You know, since Lou Xiao'e married into Xu Damao's family, she could only have three or four dishes during the first few days of marriage, during the Chinese New Year, and when she went back to her parents' home. At other times, she would only cook two dishes at most.

This kind of three-dish meal was usually eaten by her before she got married.

Moreover, two and a half of the three dishes of Cao Wei were meat dishes, which was quite luxurious.

"Xiao Wei, we can just have a simple meal. There's no need to go through so much trouble."

Lou Xiao'e felt a little embarrassed, feeling that she had made Cao Wei spend money.

"It's okay, Sister Xiao'e. This is the meat I bought this morning. I was planning to eat it today. It's a good opportunity for me to have a meal with you." Cao Wei said with a smile.

By the way, he also handed the steamed buns to Lou Xiao'e. These were steamed buns he made with the flour he got as a sign-in reward. They were much better looking than the white flour buns of that era. They were white, big, and very soft, and they tasted very chewy.

The two of them chatted while eating and had a very pleasant meal.

After dinner, Lou Xiao'e rushed to wash the dishes. She said that Cao Wei cooked the meal, so she should do the dishes. Cao Wei had no choice but to watch and help her. The scene was very harmonious, as if they were a couple.

Lou Xiao'e was very efficient and cleaned the bowl in no time.

It gets dark early in winter. It’s only a little after seven now, but it’s already completely dark, and the lights are on in the house.

Cao Wei had just helped Lou Xiao'e put the washed dishes into the cupboard. The two of them were chatting and laughing as they walked towards the table.

Suddenly, the light bulb flickered twice and went dark in an instant.

"what."

Lou Xiao'e didn't know what hit her leg, she screamed, and was about to fall down.

Fortunately, Cao Wei, who was beside her, was quick-witted and hugged Lou Xiao'e, which helped her to stabilize herself.

Feeling the softness in his hand, Cao Wei seemed to have touched something extraordinary, and he subconsciously pinched it.

Lou Xiao'e's body softened instantly and she fell on Cao Wei.

I had felt that Lou Xiao'e had a very nice figure before, but I didn't expect that after actually experiencing it, it was really true.

I don’t know if it was an illusion, but Cao Wei seemed to hear a faint moan.

For a moment, Cao Wei was reluctant to let go.

"Xiao Wei, please let me go."

Cao Wei didn't see that Lou Xiao'e in his arms faced so red that it looked like blood would almost drip out.

When Lou Xiao'e was tripped, she was terribly scared. There were benches everywhere nearby. Fortunately, Cao Wei held her.

If you knock it down, your face will be disfigured.

But when Cao Wei hugged her urgently, his hands were just on the bulging part of Lou Xiao'e.

Lou Xiao'e didn't know whether Cao Wei was really brave and pinched her twice on purpose or accidentally. Anyway, she felt very good.

She could feel the heat from Cao Wei's hands even through her thick clothes, causing her to accidentally make some very pleasant sounds.

It's really embarrassing!

Lou Xiao'e felt the warmth on her chest and her face began to feel hot. At first she was too embarrassed to say anything, but when she saw that Cao Wei had no intention of letting go, she spoke up to remind him.

If she didn't remind him, she was afraid that something unforeseen would happen.

"I'm sorry I'm sorry."

Cao Wei pretended to react, then quickly helped Lou Xiao'e up and helped her sit on the stool.

He said sorry, but he felt very regretful in his heart.

Feeling that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, Cao Wei looked out the window as if to change the subject. The lights in each house were off, but some people had kerosene lamps on, so there was a dark yellow halo of light coming from some other people's windows.

There was a noisy sound coming from outside, and it seemed like someone was shouting that the power was out or something like that.

It was at this time that Cao Wei realized that the power system in this era was not as seldom affected by power outages as in later generations.

The power system in the current urban area is still very imperfect. Not to mention ordinary people like Cao Wei, even in government agencies, power outages are common.

"It seems there is a power outage. I'll go light the kerosene lamp."

After saying that, Cao Wei picked up the kerosene lamp next to him, placed it on the table and lit it.

The moment the kerosene lamp was lit, the dark environment in the room instantly became bright.
