Siheyuan: Struggle Begins in the 1950s

Lou Bancheng was obviously very interested in this topic.

I talked to Wang Jianjun about many things about Hong Kong.

Wang Jianjun also shared with him some information from his Hong Kong planning book.

The two of them were so engrossed in chatting that they forgot the time. It was only when Chen Li came over to remind them that it was time to eat.

"Haha, Jianjun and you have talked so much, I want to go to Hong Kong to take a look myself. My son Lou Jie has been there for half a month and still doesn't understand it as clearly as you do.

Let’s stop talking about this today and go eat first. I heard that you brought me a yellow sheep, which seems to be only found in Inner Mongolia.”

Lou Bancheng did not ask Wang Jianjun where he got the information.

Everyone has their own secrets, and he is not the kind of person who likes to pry into other people's secrets.

"Uncle Lou, you don't know that the last time our steel mill went to Inner Mongolia to purchase livestock, I went with them. This yellow sheep was the one I brought back and raised in the countryside."

"Uncle Lou, you are the one who helped me this time. I haven't eaten yellow sheep for a long time. And the game we used for the steel mill's reception last time was also obtained by you. You are really a hidden talent."

Wang Jianjun smiled and didn't respond. He was purely relying on his ability to cheat in space.

It was Wang Jianjun’s first time to have dinner at Lou Bancheng’s house.

It's different from what I imagined.

There are no delicacies from land and sea.

The only dishes that can be considered high-end are the yellow sheep stewed in rice wine and the grilled lamb chops.

The rest are just home-cooked dishes.

But the food is delicious and tasty.

Wang Jianjun suddenly remembered that Lou Bancheng’s wife, Tan Yali, was the heir of Tan’s cuisine.

Speaking of it, the Lou family and the He family have a deep relationship.

Not only Lou Bancheng's daughter was slept with by He Yuzhu.

Even Lou Bancheng's wife Tan Yali was still being missed by He Daqing when she was old.

If Lou Bancheng knew what the He family had done to his family, he would probably have asked someone to put them in sacks and sink them into the river.

Also eating at the table were Lou Bancheng’s wife Tan Yali and Lou Xiaoe.

As for Lou Bancheng's sons, most of them were running around outside.

Lou Xiao'e is the only one who has not yet married.

At the dinner table, Lou Bancheng specifically introduced to Wang Jianjun that this table of dishes was made by Tan Yali.

Of course, Tan Yali was originally just one of his concubines. After Lou Bancheng's first wife died, she won the competition among the concubines and became the new wife.

Wang Jianjun speculated that Tan Yali was able to rise to the top because of her cooking skills.

I can only say that they are worthy of being the direct descendants of Tan’s cuisine.

She is very good at cooking.

Home-cooked dishes also taste delicious.

At the dinner table, Lou Bancheng never mentioned anything about Hong Kong, and only talked about family matters.

There is absolutely no airs of a superior.

"By the way, Uncle Lou, I have something to tell you just for fun."

"Oh? What's the matter?"

"It's about Xu Damao. When I went out this morning, a woman who was pregnant came with her family to settle the score with Xu Damao."

"Ah?! But...but Xu Damao is not that thing? How could he get that woman pregnant?"

Lou Xiao'e was also confused when she heard this.

She already knew after a physical examination that Xu Damao had no chance of having children of his own.

Now you tell her that Xu Damao got someone else pregnant.

She couldn't believe it.

Lou Bancheng thought about it for a moment and guessed what happened.

"That child isn't Xu Damao's, right?"

"Ah?! It's not Xu Damao's?"

Lou Xiao'e's eyes were filled with clear stupidity and confusion, and it was obvious that her brain was not enough.

"Yes, I happened to have seen that woman. She was originally introduced to a man named He Yuzhu in my hospital, but Xu Damao didn't get along with him, so he snatched the woman away.

But I just happened to know that the woman was pregnant with someone else's child, and she probably wanted Xu Damao to be the father of the child."

Lou Xiao'e was shocked. It was the first time she heard of such a thing.

"So are you going to tell Xu Damao the truth about this matter?"

Wang Jianjun shook his head and said:

"No, it's pitiful enough that Xu Damao can't have children, and this child is innocent. It just so happens that Xu Damao will have someone to take care of him in his old age after he raises him."

After hearing this, Lou Xiao'e couldn't help but sigh:

"You're a very nice person."

When Lou Xiao'e said this, Lou Bancheng and Tan Yali almost laughed out loud.

Only Wang Jianjun felt like he had made a mistake.

His conscience must have hurt for deceiving such a simple girl.

"By the way, Uncle Lou, do you still have Xu Damao's medical report?"

"I didn't throw it away. Do you find it useful? If you do, I'll go look for it later."

"Just keep it in case it comes in handy later."

Lou Bancheng was speechless. He could roughly guess what the test report was used for. He could only say that this guy had a really evil heart.

This kid Xu Damao must have offended him somewhere.

Looking at Lou Xiao'e, whose eyes were full of clear stupidity, Lou Bancheng couldn't help but sigh that it was a good thing that the two of them didn't succeed, otherwise his daughter's silly personality would have been fooled by him.

After having dinner at Lou's house, Wang Jianjun said goodbye and left.

Before leaving, Lou Bancheng also gave him a ticket for a women's bicycle.

This bicycle ticket is rarer than the men's 28-inch bicycle.

Because there are fewer women's bicycles on the market than men's.

Mainly men's cars are more practical.

Wang Jianjun accepted the ticket without hesitation and promised to buy a bicycle for Shen Chuxia when he had the chance.

Her home is quite far from the school.

It's a long walk every time I go there.

Having a bicycle can be quite convenient.

Ride all the way back to the courtyard.

As usual, I met the third uncle Yan Bugui at the door.

Wang Jianjun grabbed a handful of melon seeds and gave him half, then asked:

"Third Uncle, has there been any result with Xu Damao's matter?"

Yan Bugui took the melon seeds, left some in his pocket, and stood at the door chatting about gossip with Wang Jianjun.

"It's been resolved temporarily. After everyone in the courtyard left in the morning, Damao's mother had a few words with that woman but they couldn't make it through and then they started arguing again.

It was not until Xu Damao’s father came back at noon and found out about this that he said something to the woman, and the matter was finally resolved.”

"So what was the final result?"

"Who knows? Xu Fugui hasn't told anyone about this. But I guess it won't be long before we can drink at Xu Damao's wedding."

Wang Jianjun also guessed this was the case.

It was obvious that Chen Li wanted Xu Damao to be the scapegoat.

I guess the woman was already pregnant when she went on a blind date with Shazhu.

All I can say is that Sha Zhu was lucky, and Xu Damao took the blame for him.

However, Chen Li obviously didn't know He Yuzhu.

Even if the child is not his, He Yuzhu's, he is still willing to raise the child for her.

Isn’t this the case with Shazhu in the drama? He even raised three at once.

Of course, other blind date partners wouldn't have this benefit.

The main reason is that Chen Li is very beautiful.
