Siheyuan: A Cook in the 60s

This is just out the door.

Then he met Qi Su carrying a plate of vegetables and a basket of steamed buns walking towards the uncle's house.

"Master Qin."

"Send it to the uncle's house?"

"Yeah, the old man refused to come no matter what. What do you think happened?"

After a few brief pleasantries, they each went their separate ways.

Bang Geng was a little confused.

"A few years ago, your aunt had a heart attack and passed away, leaving only your uncle and Yi Yi at home. In fact, it was your aunt's fault. She spoiled the uncle and Yi Yi too much and they couldn't cook for themselves. So your uncle approached Qi Su and said he wanted to live with her family. The two families were close, so Sha Zhu agreed. Now, Sha Zhu's family cooks and sends the food to your uncle. Or Yi Yi comes to get it."

"What is Yi Yi doing now?"

"He works as a translator in the library, and his salary is quite high."

“Is that his official job?”

"No, it's a temporary job. We agreed on how much money to pay for each translation. He's a capable man, and his grandfather's pension is not bad. His family is quite wealthy. They even bought a bicycle a few years ago. But they always quarrel. I don't know who Yi Yi learned this from, he's very poor."

"That's what I learned from my silly uncle."

"That should be it. The old man now said that he was annoyed when he saw him, but in fact, he really loves Yi Yi. Here we are."

Qin Huairu pushed open the door of the house prepared for Banggeng.

This family moved away in the 70s.

Qin Huairu listened to Cao Wei's advice, gritted her teeth, and bought it.

As for how to buy it, don’t ask. The only answer is that cats have their own way, mice have their own way, and the Eight Immortals crossing the sea show their magical powers.

The house was not small, even bigger than the small house Cao Wei lived in at the beginning. Before that, it was occupied by Aunt Sun's family of five. Now that Bang Geng was living there alone, it seemed a bit empty (during this period, the average housing area per person was less than four square meters).

The furniture in the house has also been purchased.

Qin Huairu looked at the house with satisfaction. She had saved up little by little over the years. It wasn't much, but she felt very accomplished. She explained to Bang Geng: "This house is not big, but not small either. If you get married in the future, it will be enough for you to live in. The room inside is quite big. Aunt Sun's family made some partitions."

"I discussed it with your aunt, and we remodeled the house to make it look better. We also built a toilet. She said that people nowadays don't want to go to the toilet outside. I saw the toilet in Cao Wei's house, it's really good, especially in winter, you don't have to stay outside in the middle of the night and freeze like a human. You don't know how much money it cost at the time."

"And these cabinets are all ours. You can just use them."

The more Qin Huairu spoke, the silent Bang Geng became.

After returning from the countryside, he was no longer the ignorant person he used to be. He knew how much effort it took to build this house.

"Your two sisters usually come to clean up these things. Now that you are here, the house is yours. Don't make it look like a pigsty."

"Hmm..." Banggeng felt complicated and didn't know what to say.

"What's wrong? Are you tired?"

"kind of."

"Okay, then you should have a good rest." Qin Huairu nodded, and after handing the house to Banggeng, she breathed a sigh of relief.

That's good.

"Mom." Banggeng shouted.

"what happened?"

"Nothing... nothing. Oh, no, thank you."

"You kid." Qin Huairu smiled, didn't say much, and walked out of the house.

The house is not empty, the furniture is arranged in an orderly manner, and the smell of "home" is everywhere.

Bang Geng hesitated for a moment and left the house.

Go to the backyard.

He still wanted to find Cao Wei, but this time, his momentum was not as strong as before.

Cao Wei is smoking in the backyard at this moment.

Over the years, several families have come and gone in this backyard.

He also took the opportunity to buy a few houses. Now, in the whole backyard, only the second uncle's family, Xu Damao's family, and two other families are left. The others are all in Cao Wei's hands. Director Wang has complained to him a lot about this.

I was happily "patting" in the middle of the yard, and then I saw Banggeng walking towards me with a complicated expression.

She opened her mouth and reluctantly called out "Uncle-in-law".

"Banggeng is back." Cao Wei greeted him cheerfully and threw him a cigarette.

Bang Geng: ...

This time, he just couldn't do it.

He came here to demand an explanation, but the other person came up to him with a big smile and gave him a cigarette. No matter what, you shouldn't hit someone who's smiling at you.

After all, he was still young. After taking the cigarette from Cao Wei, he didn't know what to say for a moment.

"So, what do you want to do when you come back?"

"I don't know..." Bang Geng subconsciously followed Cao Wei's words.

"That's something you can think about. Your mother has found many ways over the years, so you can ask her for reference."

its not right!

I'm not here to talk about work.

Bang Geng stuck out his neck and said, "Cao Wei!"

"Yeah?" Cao Wei glanced at him and said, "Although I'm fine with calling me by my name, I still suggest that you show some respect."

"I know about what happened between you and my mother!"

"Oh." Cao Wei took a sip.

"You just said 'oh'?" Bang Geng's eyes widened.

"Yeah, what else? Beat me to death?"

"you!"

Bang Geng swore that he had never seen such a shameless person.

"Let me analyze it with you." Cao Wei said calmly: "Let me first talk about the relationship between me and your mother. Hmm, how many years have passed? Let me count, it has been fourteen years. I like her and she likes me too. You separated me from her, who do you think is hurt?"

Who is injured?

I really want to say it was Cao Wei.

But this bitch has a wife and children. Although he is reluctant to admit it, this is the fact. Putting aside other things, Qin Huairu only has Cao Wei, and Cao Wei has two! One less is one less, it's not gone.

This was simple arithmetic, and he could figure it out.

"Look, you've thought it through clearly, haven't you? If you separate me and your mother, you'll be comfortable, but your mother will be miserable. Who can you blame? It's you. As a human being, you can't be so selfish."

Stick stalk; ...

"Hey, don't say bad words, I'll beat you up."

Bang Geng: ...

Then what the hell am I saying!

So angry! !

Banggeng's face gradually became hotter, but he had no choice because he knew that Cao Wei was telling the truth.

No matter what else, if he really did that, the first person to get hurt would always be Qin Huairu.
