Traversing the courtyard

Chapter 216 Thirteen Snacks in Beijing

Yi Weidong put the bowl to his lips, and immediately smelled a strong sour smell, and couldn't wait any longer, so he leaned back and drank half of the bean juice.

Yi Weidong resisted not to vomit right away, and waited for a while before recovering.

Yan Jiedi asked with a smile: "How is it? Is it good?"

Yi Weidong babbled and said with a bitter face:
"How should I put it, it's a little sweet at first, then it's sour, and finally it's astringent. Most people really can't get used to this bean juice."

The owner of the stall next to him gave a thumbs up and said, "That's right, you can tell the characteristics of the bean juice, and it will be even more delicious if you add shredded pickles, burnt rings, and sesame seeds."

"thank you boss."

Yi Weidong took a pair of bamboo chopsticks, ate some coke rings and pickles, and drank two mouthfuls of soybean juice with a frown.

This time the reaction is not so big, it is really difficult at the beginning!
After a rough start, it's been a lot better since then.

Yan Jiedi said: "You see, I didn't lie to you, you can accept the taste after drinking it!"

"Oh, I almost threw up."

Yan Jiedi smiled and said: "This Jiaoquaner is one of the thirteen delicacies in our capital city. Su Dongpo, a great poet in the Song Dynasty, even wrote a poem about it!"

Yi Weidong looked at the few Jiao Quan in front of him and said, "Su Dongpo also wrote poems for Jiao Quan?"

"Yeah, my dad taught me, let me think about it, it's like kneading a jade with slender hands, frying it in green oil to make a deep yellow, night comes spring sleep is no big deal, it's a beauty that wraps arms around gold. My dad said it's China What about the advertising poem for the first product?"

"Oh, Xie Di is still a talented girl." Yi Weidong praised with a smile.

Yan Jiedi's fair face flushed pink, and said shyly, "No way, my dad taught me."

After Yan Jiedi finished drinking the soybean juice, he continued to stroll.

Yi Weidong looked at the various snacks, and decided to come back in a few days by himself, buy more and store them in the space, so as not to be unable to buy them in the future.

Yi Weidong walked around with Yan Jiedi, seeing that Yan Jiedi didn't want to buy anything,
I had no choice but to go back and turn on the sweeping mode.

Donkey rolling, mahua, haw jelly, peanut candy, buy what you can fit, and finally took a few candied haws,

Put them all in net bags, Yi Weidong said:

"Xie Di, where else do you want to play?"

"It's too cold, let's go home."

"Alright, it's still warm in the house, go back to the house and play cards."

Yi Weidong and the two returned to the car storage place, paid two cents for the car inspection fee, and hung the net bag on the handlebars. Yi Weidong got on the bicycle first, touched the ground with his left foot, and Yan Jiedi sat on it again.

There were children setting off firecrackers everywhere along the way. Yi Weidong also turned around and went to several supply and marketing cooperatives to buy some firecrackers. He put them all together in one go yesterday, and the space was out of stock.

Seeing Yi Weidong buying firecrackers again, Yan Jiedi asked, "Brother Weidong, didn't you buy a lot yesterday? Also, why are you more familiar with the locations of these supply and marketing cooperatives than I am?"

"I just like to run around the alley, sit tight, and go home."

After entering the courtyard house, Yan Jiedi first went home to report and came back. Yi Weidong went back to He Yushui's house and divided the things into two parts.

When he went to eat at the uncle's house at noon, Yi Weidong saw that He Yuzhu was not at home,
Yi Weidong asked, "Auntie, where did my brother go?"

Today is New Year's Day, the rolling mill is closed for the day, and only a few apprentices are arranged in the cafeteria to cook big pot meals for those on duty. He Yuzhu doesn't need to go to work.

According to He Yuzhu's temperament, he would sleep in the room this morning.

The first mother said: "I don't know, Zhuzi went to the backyard this morning, so he didn't come here."

Yi Weidong wanted to get up and go to the backyard to have a look, the aunt pulled Yi Weidong and said;
"It's still possible to lose the pillar, let's go and serve food."

"Okay, I'm going to serve dinner."

Yi Weidong went into the kitchen and took out the steamed buns, filled the porridge and brought it back to the house on a tray.

Put it on the table and asked: "Auntie, where is my uncle? Why don't you wait for my uncle to come back?"

The first mother smiled and said: "I was called away by some of his apprentices to drink, and I will send the old man back at night."

The uncle has quite a few apprentices, but most of them are temporary apprentices in the factory, not formally recognized.

Just like Yi Weidong taught the ten apprentices to put on the spokes, not seriously.

However, over the years, the uncle still has a few apprentices who have been recognized by the uncle. These are the real apprentices that the uncle recognizes. Everyone will bring a few catties of fruit biscuits to sit and sit around.

After Yi Weidong and Da Ma had eaten, Yi Weidong couldn't sit still anymore, and came to the backyard after saying hello to Da Ma.

Yi Weidong knocked on the old lady's door, came in and saw that only the old lady was in the room.

Yi Weidong was surprised and said: "Old lady, why are you at home by yourself! Have you had lunch?"

"It's Weidong, good grandson. I ate the leftover dumplings from yesterday. It's not like the old lady can't move anymore. If I'm served by you every day and doesn't do some work, maybe I'll grow old faster."

Seeing that the house was cleaned up, Yi Weidong sat beside the old lady and said:

"You keep saying that you need to do regular activities, and we expect you to keep bringing up grandchildren for my brother!"

"That's right, I watched Zhuzi grow up. I just wait for Zhuzi to find me a grandson, otherwise I will die with regret!"

"Old lady, you always wait until my brother has a child."

Yi Weidong chatted with the old lady for a while before asking, "Where did my brother and sister Xiao'e go?"

"I don't know, Zhuzi didn't come to me, and Ezi won't be back until tomorrow when she returns to her mother's house."

Strange, did He Yuzhu not come here but went out with something?

Yi Weidong still wanted to talk to the old lady, and the old lady started to push Yi Weidong away,

"Good grandson, go and play by yourself, old lady, I want to sleep for a while."

"Okay then, I'll help you back to bed."

Yi Weidong helped the old lady onto the bed, covered her with a quilt, and then closed the door and came out.

Yi Weidong pushed away the house that the west wing room bought from Xu Damao,

Xu Damao's grandson moved in a hurry, so he just threw some junk in the house and didn't want it.

There was a mess of rubbish all over the ground.

Yi Weidong closed the door, took out a big broom and swept the walls of the house, tore off some old newspapers that were pasty, and finally swept them into a pile and put them in the space, saving them for throwing out on the way to work later.

Yi Weidong didn't need to use his hands to control the glue to spread evenly on the newspaper in the space, and then put the newspaper directly on the wall and ceiling, and it was fixed in an instant without Yi Weidong moving a finger.

Looking at the brand new newspapers that were used, Yi Weidong nodded with satisfaction, but unfortunately there are no wallpapers of any kind now, so he can only use newspapers to stick the walls.

If the walls are not pasted, soil will fall off the mud walls, and there will be a mark when the clothes rub against it.

Yi Weidong returned to He Yushui's room with nothing to do, made tea, sat on the recliner, and casually counted the supplies in the space.

Collect antique calligraphy, paintings, Ming and Qing furniture, etc. that need to be stored for a long time,
Food, snacks, and snacks are all put away in different categories, and finally count your own cash,

"Strange, why is my money gone?"
