Chapter 56 Old Zhou is confused! When Huang Suqin bought clothes and returned home, she saw that the dishes had been washed and the house had been cleaned inside and out. The two brothers did not go anywhere and just sat on the doorstep waiting for her to come back. How could she not like such a well-behaved boy? What's more, he is my sister's son, so they are related by blood. "Aunt, I seem to have seen the benefactor who gave Yutou to us." Shengli saw his aunt coming back and immediately went to greet her. "Didn't I tell you not to go out?" "Aunt! My eldest brother and I didn't go out. My eldest brother said that the benefactor is in this yard." Shengyi spoke for his brother, fearing that his brother would be misunderstood by his aunt. Huang Suqin was stunned. In this yard? The only people in their yard who have bicycles besides her family are Yimin. The three old men in the yard all walk to work. "The front yard?" Huang Suqin asked tentatively.
She just saw that Yimin had returned and his bicycle was parked outside the door. Shengli nodded repeatedly: "I remember his bicycle, that one." "Okay! You go with your aunt to thank them." Huang Suqin put down her newly bought clothes, held Shengyi's hand with one hand, carried the taro with the other, asked Shengli to follow, and walked towards the central courtyard. "Yimin, are you at home?" Huang Suqin shouted when they arrived outside Zhou Yimin's house in the central courtyard. The door opened, Zhou Yimin leaned out, and looked at Huang Suqin and the other two with a puzzled look. He did not recognize the two children at first, mainly because they had taken a bath, changed their clothes, and looked a lot different. "Auntie Huang, what's going on? Come in and sit down." The two children immediately knelt down and kowtowed to him. "Hey! What's going on?" Zhou Yimin was a little panicked. Huang Suqin told the story again and thanked Zhou Yimin non-stop. If it weren't for Zhou Yimin, her two nephews might not have come to find her. After all, they were both so hungry that they had no strength left. Zhou Yimin finally understood what was going on and said with a smile, "Isn't this fate? Take it back, Yutou. How can you take back something you have given away?" After saying that, Zhou Yimin went back into the house, took out a handful of candy and stuffed it into the two children. "Take it, and call me Brother Zhou from now on." I don’t dare to have two children. Huang Suqin was very happy to see that Zhou Yimin was quite close to her two nephews, and she said, "Just take what your eldest brother Zhou gave you! Yimin, come to my house for dinner tonight." Zhou Yimin apologized, "Aunt Huang, how about we do it another time? Dapeng is treating us to dinner tonight." Huang Suqin slapped her head and recalled this matter. Everyone in the yard knew that Luo Dapeng had taken the empty house in the front yard and invited people to dinner. "Okay, then another day." Then he took his two nephews back to the backyard and took the taro away. Otherwise, people would say that he looked down on the hairy taro! She appreciated the kindness.
In the evening, the workers came back from get off work one after another. The smell of meat was already wafting out of Dapeng's house, and a group of children were milling around outside. It was not the children's fault, as they could not get enough to eat these days, let alone good food. When he smells something, he will definitely come over like a puppy. Dapeng did not disappoint the children. He brought out the fried meat and put a piece into each child's mouth. Zhou Yimin gave him five kilograms of meat, so it was enough for him to feed it. "Ah! You kid, don't you even call me Brother Dapeng?" "Brother Dapeng, I called you!" the child said aggrievedly. "Oh! Really? That's too quiet. Scream again." "Can I have another piece?" "Just shout together, 'Brother Dapeng is so handsome, Brother Dapeng is so awesome,' and I'll let you have another piece." There was not enough meat on the plate, as it was cut a little small. Hearing that there was still food to be eaten, the little guys also gave face, and their voices were so loud that the people in the next yard might have heard it. Zhou Yimin and Li Youde, who were not far away, were speechless. How could they be so childish? As Zhou Yimin walked over, the children saw Zhou Yimin and left Luo Dapeng one after another. They surrounded Zhou Yimin and called him Brother Yimin. There was also a little one who called him Uncle Yimin in a baby voice. "Wait, where are you going? Come back here." Luo Dapeng jumped up and down. Li Youde rolled his eyes: "Save it, look at your plate, is there any meat left?" "What a bunch of little bastards!" Does having milk make you a mother? Is it because I have no flesh left that I can no longer call you? Zhou Yimin took out another bag of coconut candy and said, "Guoqing, you come and distribute it. Send it to anyone else in the courtyard who is not here, including Shengli and Shengyi, who are new to Aunt Huang's family. Can you do it?" Guoqing, the boy, immediately felt that he was "valued". He straightened his face, held his head high, and said loudly, "I can do it." Although he didn't get an extra piece of candy, he felt very proud. "Go!" Luo Dapeng came over and said, "Is it coconut candy? Give me one." I’m a bit embarrassed about National Day, after all, Brother Yimin just said that it’s only for children. Brother Dapeng, you're making it very difficult for me to do this! "Take your plate back to the house! Don't embarrass yourself. How old are you?" Li Youde couldn't bear to watch it anymore. Luo Dapeng glared at Guoqing, as if to say: Boy, have you forgotten who gave you the meat just now? After a while, the first uncle, the second uncle and the third uncle all came. In addition, each household in the front yard sent a representative to attend, and together with Dapeng's father, brothers, Zhou Yimin and Li Youde, the two eight-immortal tables were full. On the table there was a plate of steamed dried fish, a plate of fried chicken with mushrooms, and a pot of stewed pork with cabbage. Although there are not many dishes, the portions are quite large, especially the cabbage stewed with pork, which you can eat with your chopsticks. The wine is Lianhuabai, which is one of the famous liquors in Beijing and has a long history. It is said that the brewing process of Lianhuabai has always been a secret recipe of the palace during the Ming and Qing Dynasties.
No one tactfully mentioned how the house was acquired. Especially the three uncles, who kept talking about Zhou Yimin, saying how promising he was. Naturally, the others kept agreeing with them. How long has Yimin been working? He has achieved such great results, this is a fact. It was even published in the newspaper, which they would never dare to dream of. Although they were not the ones who were advertised in the newspaper, it was still a great honor for them to live in the same courtyard. "In my opinion, Yimin has a good chance of becoming this year's advanced individual," said the third uncle Yang Zhenhua. An old man asked Zhou Yimin: "Yimin, what did your leader say?" Zhou Yimin shook his head: "I didn't listen to what Section Chief Wang, Section Chief Zheng, and Director Ding said. It doesn't matter! I'm still young, and it's not good to be too dazzling. Let it go!" In fact, Zhou Yimin did not want to achieve personal advancement so quickly. It was not a good thing to be too prominent. When the old man and others saw how steady Zhou Yimin was, they all felt a little impressed by this young man in their courtyard. At the same time, I was also shocked. It was Section Chief Wang, Section Chief Zheng, and Director Ding. They sounded very familiar. The connections he had in the factory must be extraordinary. Other people’s children! The gap is really big. At this time, everyone couldn't help but think of Lao Zhou, Zhou Yimin's father. Old Zhou is confused! Is it worth it for a widow? Such an outstanding son left without any warning. What is he thinking? If you really want to find a partner, can't you just marry him openly? Although they are not quite sure what Lao Zhou did before and it is a bit mysterious, everyone knows that his income is not low and he should have saved a lot of money. (End of this chapter)
