Siheyuan: A Cook in the 60s

Everyone had a smile on their face.

Cao Wei also saw Sha Zhu, who was hanging around a firecracker stall with his sister and wife, apparently bargaining for the price.

Don't bother them either.

Walking side by side with Lou Xiao'e, Qin Jingru following in front ran around and looked around.

As they walked, Lou Xiaoe suddenly said, "Does it feel like taking my daughter shopping?"

"Puff." Cao Wei almost couldn't help but spit it out.

It would have been better if Lou Xiao'e hadn't said it, but now that she did, she couldn't help feeling weird.

"Don't let her know, or she'll demote you again."

"The talent is low enough. The other day I asked her what she wanted to learn. Guess what she said?"

"What?" Cao Wei felt that Qin Jingru's outrageous little head would not be surprised at anything she said.

"She asked me what ranks the concubines in the palace had. She wanted to arrange for us to be in one of them. She also said that she would keep a record of us in a little notebook and give us a promotion if we performed well." At this point, Lou Xiao'e couldn't help but laugh: "You are so lucky, Emperor Cao."

"Ahem, don't talk nonsense, don't talk nonsense." Cao Wei coughed twice awkwardly.

Lou Xiao'e gave him a charming look.

"Brother Wei, Brother Wei, there are fun things over there, hurry up." Qin Jingru waved at the two of them in front with vigor.

"Let's go, there are more and more people, we won't be able to find anyone if we disperse later." Cao Wei responded, and the crowd around him kept growing. In later generations, unless you were traveling, you would rarely feel this kind of crowded atmosphere.

A group of children ran past Cao Wei from behind, singing as they ran.

"Child, child, don't be impatient.

After Laba is the New Year,

Pasting couplets, making dumplings,

Set off firecrackers, wear new clothes,

Wear a new hat and celebrate the New Year happily. "

"That's great." Lou Xiao'e looked at their backs and said slowly.

"How about we have a baby?"

Lou Xiao'e said angrily, "Get lost! How dare you let me give birth?"

Cao Wei made a "tsk" sound.

Not far away, Qin Jingru shouted again: "Brother Wei, come quickly, this uncle comrade is so powerful."

"I'm coming."

Shopping is always tiring no matter what era it is.

Only women and children can play energetically for a whole day. Cao Wei was very tired that day. He looked and walked everywhere. The atmosphere was good, but his legs were a little tired.

on the way home.

Qin Jingru and Banggeng were excitedly discussing which juggler at the temple fair was the best.

Banggeng thinks the one that breathes fire is the most powerful.

Qin Jingru said that breathing fire was nothing, she could do it too, and she still thought the one that flew very high was the most powerful.

After arguing for a long time without any result, Xiaodang finally concluded that the one selling candied haws was the best because the candied haws were delicious.

This summary has been recognized by people including but not limited to Jia Zhangshi, Qin Huairu, Cao Wei and others.

The two of them also stopped fighting and went back home.

"Brother Wei~"

"Ok?"

"I'm so happy."

"You don't know, when I went to the market before, I wanted to try a little bit of everything. Today I really tried a little bit of everything. I'm so happy." After Qin Jingru returned home, she collapsed on the bed, her belly was a little bulging. It should be said that she ate a lot today. She ate a little here, and then she looked at that. She wanted to eat, but she was a little reluctant.

Finally, he looked at her pitifully.

How could Cao Wei bear this, so he had to pay to buy it.

She ate it reluctantly. Lou Xiaoe was amused by this. She was almost full, but when she saw something delicious, she still wanted to eat.

She is also very stubborn and determined not to waste anything. She will definitely finish what she buys.

Come to think of it, these days, who would be willing to throw away food? If you throw away food, you will be scolded like a dog, and you might even get beaten.

When she really couldn't eat any more, Lou Xiao'e gave her a sinister suggestion and told her that the food she couldn't finish could be given to Cao Wei.

Then she was completely stunned.

Can it still be like this...

Then, she seemed to have opened the door to a new world.

Eat a little here, a little there. If you can’t finish it, it’s okay, give it to Cao Wei.

Anyway, Cao Wei eats a lot.

That's true. Compared to ordinary people, Cao Wei has a big appetite. After all, martial artists need much more energy than ordinary people. Eat more and digest it.

Cao Wei was also happy when he saw Qin Xiaozhu lying on the bed: "Did you enjoy your meal today?"

"Yeah, I'm very happy. It's just a little expensive." Qin Jingru smacked her lips, savoring today's food.

"As long as you're happy, you can take a good rest for a while. I'll go out and smoke a cigarette."

"Uh-huh."

Sleeping after eating is in line with the basic laws of the human body.

Cao Wei walked out of the door. Outside, there were lights in thousands of houses. At this moment, there was also smoke rising from the courtyard. Not every family went to the temple fair. Even if they did, most of them would go home for dinner. They went in the morning and returned at noon, and they went in the afternoon and returned at night. There were relatively few people like them who spent a whole day outside. Coincidentally, Lou Xiaoe also walked out of her house.

It’s not surprising to see Cao Wei.

"You are a good man. Since Jingru got married, you no longer smoke at home." Lou Xiao'e spoke in a sarcastic tone.

"Tsk, you look so cute when you're jealous." Cao Wei laughed and took out a cigarette with a filter and lit it for himself.

"Hey, you are awesome. You smoke my cigarette and then turn around and criticize me. I find that you have no conscience at all."

Cao Wei did not continue on this topic. (A little knowledge: change the topic when it is time to do so. Do not let a small argument turn into a big quarrel, or a small temper turn into excessive anger. This is a lesson learned through blood and tears, comrades.)

"Tsk, this backyard is a little lacking after all." Cao Wei said with a light "tsk": "There's not even a place to sit."

"This courtyard was not a residence for any important figures in the past. It can only accommodate about 200 people. It's impossible to get a number." Lou Xiao'e shook her head.

A proper mansion cannot be called a mansion if it does not have tens of thousands of people. With servants, retainers, loyal soldiers, teachers and so on, a mansion really has to support the entire city. Their courtyard is just a drop in the bucket.

"Where are you going tomorrow?"

"Where else can we go? Let's go home." Lou Xiao'e knew that this guy was trying to change the subject, but a smart woman would take this opportunity. In fact, most things in life do not need to be distinguished as right or wrong. People grow up in different environments and have different values. Unless the three basic values ​​are inconsistent, many things advocate seeking common ground while reserving differences.

Lou Xiao'e inexplicably had the illusion that she and Cao Wei had entered into married life.

"Why are you dazed?"

"No, it's cold. I won't stand here with you anymore."

"Wait a minute."

"what happened?"

Cao Wei looked around, found no one, and kissed her.

Lou Xiao'e struggled, punched him twice, and pushed him away.

"It smells like cigarettes! Why are you so annoying!"

"I gave you this last kiss before the New Year, but you're still not satisfied." Cao Wei looked like he was ungrateful.

"Come on, there's still tomorrow!"
