The winner of life in the courtyard

Chapter 77 Lou Xiao'e reminds

In fact, if it wasn't for the purpose of avoiding suspicion, Shen Zhiping didn't plan to invite Xu Damao.

It’s nothing, just different views.

In Shen Zhiping's opinion, marriage is a very sacred thing.

Just as the Taoist marriage certificate says: A marriage certificate is presented to the heavens and to the underworld. Reported to the nine heavens and to the underworld. Reported to the saints, communicated to the three realms, witnessed by the ancestors of the heavens. Heaven and earth are the mirrors, and the sun and the moon are of the same mind. If you betray the beauty, you are deceiving the heaven. If you betray the beauty, you are violating the will of heaven. The crime of deceiving heaven is death.

But at this moment, although he disliked Xu Damao, he couldn't say anything.

"Okay, your brother and I will go there after get off work!"

"That's great. I'll go try your cooking too. I heard from your senior brother that you even learned from a master!"

"That is!"

Shen Zhiping was quite proud. A man with a talent for cheating is just that confident.

After chatting for a few more words, Shen Zhiping took Liu Wanqing and Zhao Yanlai to say goodbye, and then went to meet Wang Deli, the matchmaker, and gave him wedding candy. He also said that he would treat the other party to a drink when he came back from vacation.

Wang Deli naturally agreed.

His promotion is completely secured!

There were some twists and turns at first, but as the steel mill took the lead in carrying out the rolling mill transformation and successfully implemented it nationwide, Wang Deli, as the director of the rolling mill workshop, naturally benefited from it.

Wang Deli’s gratitude to Shen Zhiping is very deep!

When the two came out of the steel mill, they smiled at each other and went to buy groceries!

We have finished yesterday’s food, and since we are entertaining guests tonight, we must buy some food.

There were quite a few meat tickets, all of which belonged to Liu Wanqing.

Shen Zhiping also had tickets, but they were mainly food tickets.

What he gained from this business trip was not only local delicacies, but also a lot of food coupons that were valid throughout the country.

The two rushed to Chaoyang Vegetable Market again.

Pretty good luck!

I bought two rabbits, a pheasant and two fish from a hunter. I didn't buy any fat pork, only lean meat.

In this era, people are generally short of oil and water, and there is too little vegetable oil. The main oil they eat is pork oil, so fatty meat is more popular and lean meat is very disliked.

When they were leaving the vegetable market, they happened to meet an aunt who was selling eggs, and they simply bought all the eggs from her.

The eggs sold by this lady were quite large, and Shen Zhiping did not bargain with her. He just gave her the highest price, five cents each.

The aunt was so excited that she gave the basket to Shen Zhiping, which made Shen Zhiping feel embarrassed. He gave her another twenty cents as if he had bought the basket.

When the two men returned to the courtyard carrying a bunch of things, they met Yan Bugui who was about to go out when they entered the door.

"Teacher Yan, are you going to school?"

Seeing Yan Bugui pushing a bicycle, Shen Zhiping guessed that he was preparing to go to school, and it was almost time for dinner.

"Yes, yes, I have classes in the afternoon, I have to go early to prepare for the lessons!"

"Engineer Shen, what are you doing...?"

"Oh, I bought some extra food for a dinner party tonight!"

"Ah, see you later!"

Shen Zhiping was a little surprised that Yan Bugui had no intention of taking advantage this time.

However, Shen Zhiping did not think much about it. He would just be happy if Yan Bugui did not take advantage of him.

After returning to the east courtyard, the two of them closed the gate.

As a result, not long after the two of them entered the house and sat down, someone came and knocked on the door.

"I gonna go see!"

Shen Zhiping held down Liu Wanqing who was about to get up, "You take a rest first!"

When Shen Zhiping came out of the house, he saw Lou Xiao'e standing at the gate of the yard.

"Sister Xiao'e, why are you here?"

"I have something to talk to you and Wanqing about!"

When Lou Xiao'e saw Shen Zhiping, she stepped into the east courtyard.

Shen Zhiping led her into the house.

When Liu Wanqing saw Lou Xiao'e coming over, she quickly stood up and said, "Sister Xiao'e!" "Hurry and sit down!"

Lou Xiao'e came to Liu Wanqing and pulled her to sit down.

Shen Zhiping found a cup and poured a glass of water for Lou Xiaoe and Liu Wanqing.

"Sister Xiao'e, you chat with Wanqing, I'm going to cook!"

"Go ahead, go ahead, I want to have a private conversation with Wanqing!"

Lou Xiao'e waved her hand and did not try to keep Shen Zhiping.

Shen Zhiping went straight to the kitchen, took a cabbage, broke off half of its leaves, picked up a kitchen knife, and cut it into strips.

Although her speed is not as fast as that of a professional chef, it is not bad compared to that of an ordinary housewife.

For lunch, Shen Zhiping didn’t plan to make it too complicated.

A dish of scrambled eggs with Chinese cabbage, a plate of yesterday’s braised pork offal, and a few pancakes.

Just put the leftover millet porridge from the morning back into the pot and lunch will be ready.

As for Lou Xiaoe?
Shen Zhiping didn't think she would stay for dinner.

Because if this sister wanted to come to his house for dinner, she would not visit at dinner time.

Sure enough, in just a few minutes, Lou Xiao'e left. Liu Wanqing saw her out and when she came back, she went straight into the kitchen.

Shen Zhiping saw Liu Wanqing coming over, smiled at her and said, "Sister Xiao'e is gone?"

"Ok!"

Liu Wanqing nodded, walked to Shen Zhiping's side, and whispered: "Do you know what Sister Xiao'e said to me?"

"do not know!"

Unless Shen Zhiping could read minds, how would he know about this kind of thing?

Liu Wanqing whispered, "Sister Xiao'e told me to be careful of Qin Huairu and Jia Zhang in the middle courtyard. She said they might be targeting you!"

"Targeting me? What for?"

Shen Zhiping decisively pretended to be ignorant even though he knew the truth.

You can't show that you understand this kind of thing too well.

Liu Wanqing snorted and said, "Stop pretending!"

"I don't believe you don't know why they are targeting you?"

"Let me help you?"

Shen Zhiping didn't pretend to be confused this time.

Liu Wanqing nodded.

Shen Zhiping took her hand and said with a smile: "Don't worry, your man is not a fool!"

"Besides, my wife is the best in the world. Why would I be interested in a widow? Unless I got kicked in the head by a donkey, then got caught in a door panel, and finally got soaked in water!"

"How could there be such a person in this world?"

Liu Wanqing punched Shen Zhiping twice with her little fist, "What nonsense!"

Shen Zhiping smiled and said, "Wife, believe it or not, there really are people like this in this world!"

"Do not believe!"

Liu Wanqing didn’t think that someone would really get kicked in the head by a donkey, get caught in a door panel, and have water get into it!

Shen Zhiping looked at Liu Wanqing's expression, smiled and said, "Do you remember the He Yuzhu from the Central Courtyard that I told you about?"

"Remember!"

"That's what he is!"

"It's because he is currently being held in Xishan Labor Camp. Otherwise, he would definitely be trying to get close to Qin Huairu!"

"Oh, yes, and his father!"

When Shen Zhiping talked about Sha Zhu, he suddenly thought of He Daqing.

He Daqing abandoned his children for a White Widow in the past. Now that the White Widow is no longer attractive, he returns to the Siheyuan. There happens to be a very attractive Widow Qin in the Siheyuan. Will he be tempted?

You know, in the plot, He Daqing, who is already quite old, still hooks up with Lou Xiao'e's mother!
