The Siheyuan of the Young Educated Youth

When Huo Sheng arrived at Director Wei's house, the dishes had already been set out and the food was being served.

Director Wei is about 1.78 meters tall, with a sturdy build, a shaved head, and exudes the toughness of a soldier.

Seeing Huo Sheng coming in, he stood up from the sofa and called Huo Sheng, "Come, Xiao Huo, come to the table to eat. We've been waiting for you."

Huo Sheng didn't hesitate and handed the fish bowl to Wei Heping. He washed his hands and sat down.

Director Wei was originally a soldier under Huo Sheng's father. Since Huo Sheng came to the machinery factory, he has always taken good care of him and is very close to him.

Huo Sheng would occasionally send trapped rabbits and pheasants to Director Wei's home.

The two families get along quite closely.

Director Wei poured a glass of wine for each of them, "Xiao Huo, come here, your aunt made braised pork and vermicelli today, let's have a couple of drinks."

As he said this, he placed a glass of wine in Huo Sheng's place, raised his own glass and clinked it with Huo Sheng's.

"This wine was given to me by a comrade-in-arms during the Chinese New Year. How about we try it today? This is my first time drinking it too."

Huo Sheng: "I don't know much about wine, but the smell of alcohol is still very strong. It should be a very good bar?"

Director Wei: "Well, it's good. My comrade said it was good at the time and insisted that I try it. Eat more vegetables. Today's vermicelli is just leaked this year. It's delicious. Eat more."

Huo Sheng picked up a piece with chopsticks. It was indeed good, transparent and springy, strong and chewy. "Mm, good, delicious."

Director Wei: "I asked the logistics department to bring some back last year during the Mid-Autumn Festival, but they didn't. This year it's not bad. We have vermicelli tickets for the Mid-Autumn Festival."

Huo Sheng touched his nose and said nothing.

At this time, Director Wei's wife Liu Xiaoli came out with a plate of salad cucumbers, put it on the table, and said:

"This time, Wanying went to purchase the vermicelli. She just went to get it back this morning. She happened to have a piece of meat cut this morning, so she stewed it. You two can have a few drinks."

Huo Sheng: "Thank you, Auntie. Stop busying yourself and sit down to eat together!"

Liu Xiaoli: "You two drink first, there are two more dishes, they will be ready soon."

After saying that, he went back to the kitchen.

Director Wei: "Come on, let's drink first. The factory is holding a basketball game recently. This is a good time for you. Why don't you join in?"

Huo Sheng: "I drive every night and sleep during the day, so the time is not very convenient."

Director Wei: "Indeed, how about I change your position? With your ability, you can handle many jobs."

Huo Sheng: "No, no, I'm doing a good job, I won't cause you any trouble."

Director Wei thought for a moment and said, "Okay, let's do it first, and then we'll adjust it based on the situation later."

The topic returned to the basketball game. "The prizes for this basketball game are pretty good. There are towels, soap, enamelware pots, thermoses, and the first prize is a bright red fleece scarf, which costs more than 30 yuan. It's perfect for your wedding. Your wife will be happy. Why don't you try to get it?"

Huo Sheng was very excited in his heart, but on the surface he remained calm, "The target is not there yet, don't worry."

Director Wei: "You are not a child anymore. Do you have someone you like? I can help you negotiate it out."

Huo Sheng: "Not yet, no rush. I'm not in a good position to start a family in my current situation."

Director Wei: "Your problem is nothing. With your father around, you won't stay in this mountain valley forever. There are good girls who don't mind, so don't worry."

Director Wei was hinting at something, how could Huo Sheng not hear it?

I quickly refused, "I really don't want to. I'm not in the mood. Let's wait until it's certain. I don't want to cause trouble for others."

Director Wei asked tentatively, "Really? I heard that you were very close to that girl."

Huo Sheng knew it was because of this matter, so he gave it a good explanation.

"Yan Ling's brother and I were comrades-in-arms. Her brother died on a mission. I just helped take care of her family. It's really not that."

Director Wei: "Well, comradeship cannot be forgotten, this is a good thing. If you don't have that intention, you should pay more attention to the impact, it will not be good for you."

Huo Sheng: "I will be more careful in the future."

Director Wei picked up the wine glass and said, "Drink, drink."

Liu Xiaoli brought out another dish of celery and shredded potatoes.

"Xiao Huo, eat more food. Don't be polite. Come over often when you have time. We are not strangers. Don't be polite."

After saying that, she went back to the kitchen to cook.

Huo Sheng changed the subject, "I got a few crucian carps today. You can try them. They were caught by my friend. You should eat them. I'll get them for you next time I have a chance."

……

Huo Sheng drank at Director Wei's house for more than an hour before leaving with a red face.

Director Wei was lying on the sofa, slightly tipsy, looking at his wife and smiling, "Are you relieved now? There is nothing wrong between him and Yan Ling. Tell Wanying, so that we can have a good time."

Liu Xiaoli also smiled, "Xiao Huo is a handsome man with a good family background. If Wanying can marry into the Huo family, it will be good for our family."

Director Wei reached out to pull his wife, "I know, let's not talk about them for now."

Liu Xiaoli was pulled into the arms of Director Wei.

Liu Xiaoli gave him a glare and said, "What are you doing in broad daylight?"

Director Wei buried his head in his wife's chest and said, "The children are all out. No one will come at this time."

Liu Xiaoli was pushed by him, her cheeks flushed, her heart pounding, she held his shoulders with her hands, her voice trembling and charming, "Lao Wei, Lao Wei..."

Old Wei couldn't help but unbutton his wife's chest, lowered his head to suck, and reached down with one hand.

Liu Xiaoli was panting heavily, her hands and feet were numb, and her legs were clenched. "Oh, don't..."

Director Wei kissed her more and more eagerly, "Wife, it's rare that I'm at home during the day, and the little ones are back at night, wife, be good, good wife..."

Liu Xiaoli fell under the powerful offensive of Director Wei, and the two of them fell asleep in each other's arms on the bed which had been turned into a sofa.

Jiang Wanying came back just after get off work and shouted as soon as she entered the door: "Auntie, Auntie."

Liu Xiaoli was still in Director Wei's arms. She shuddered and quickly got up. Director Wei put his arm around her waist and touched her again before letting her go.

Liu Xiaoli quickly combed her hair and straightened her clothes.

"Here she comes. Wanying is back."

After saying that, he went out and closed the bedroom door behind him.

Jiang Wanying's face turned red, she was anxious but embarrassed to say, "Auntie~"

Liu Xiaoli pulled Jiang Wanying into the kitchen.

He whispered to himself, sharing his experience and explaining the situation.

Huo Sheng first went to the supply and marketing cooperative and bought two small vats about one meter high to store fish, two jars to store mushrooms, and a large vat to pickle sauerkraut.

Go home and clean up quickly, blanch and marinate the mushrooms.

Clean the oil film on the rabbit skin, soak it in warm water and detergent, and rub it repeatedly to wash away the dirt and grease as much as possible.

Clean the oil film again and try to make it as clean as possible.

Rinse with clean water.

Use cornmeal and Glauber's salt in appropriate proportions, add water and mix well, and soak the leather completely in the saltpeter water.

After finishing all the work, Huo Sheng heated up the big fish and rice and enjoyed them with peace of mind.

My body and mind are extremely happy. It is the most relaxing and enjoyable moment in my twenty-two years of life.
