Happy Life in Siheyuan

Chapter 318
Thinking that the dog and the cat were mainly to accompany Han Mu at home, Han Chunming quickly named the dog Rhubarb and the cat Xiao Hui.

After choosing the names, he carefully checked the status of Da Huang and Xiao Hui, and found that there was nothing wrong, so he opened the door and walked out of the room, heading towards the kitchen.

"Mom, what delicious food do you make?"

"Vinegar potato shreds, tomato scrambled eggs, braised eggplant, and fried peanuts."

Mother Han glanced at Han Chunming and replied casually.

"Well, let me help you."

Han Chunming smiled and stepped forward, reached out to pick up the potatoes that Han Mu had just peeled, put them on the cutting board and shredded them.

There was a flash of knife light, and each potato became a filament, which was then soaked in water by him to remove excess starch.

Then, he started cutting the eggplant again, while Han Mu was busy beating eggs and frying tomatoes.

"Mom, my brother and sister haven't come back to see you these days?"

"Yes! Why not, they came to dinner yesterday and asked you when you would bring them back!"

"Well, what do you say?"

"What else can I say! Tell the truth! If you talk about you, you can brag to me if you have a good talk with Cai Xiaoli! Let me tell you what you want!"

"Hey! Don't worry, I will find you another good one."

"Okay, I'll wait for you to find me another good one."

Mother Han gave Han Chunming an annoyed look, then poured the eggplant into the pot.

Suddenly, there was a sound of "Zi", a puff of oily smoke rose, and the fragrance of eggplant slowly spread out.

Han Chunming stood beside Han's mother, smelling the atmosphere of fireworks all around, and felt a sense of peace in his heart.

In fact, the most memorable thing in life is not the ups and downs, but the ordinary and warm daily life like now.

Not long after, Han Chunming had dinner with Mother Han, and was planning to visit Mr. Guan and get some system rewards by the way.

Just as he opened the door and walked out, he saw Su Meng walking into the yard pushing a bicycle.

He frowned, smiled and waved, "Su Meng, you're back!"

Su Meng's eyes lit up suddenly when she saw Han Chunming's handsome figure. She was about to ask why Han Chunming suddenly changed, but then she thought that Han Chunming hadn't heard from him for a while, and she immediately turned cold , walked towards the backyard with a proud face.

When Han Chunming saw Su Meng's performance, he couldn't help but laugh for a moment, and then stood quietly where he was, with no intention of rushing to please him.

As Su Meng walked, she realized that Han Chunming hadn't chased after her to coax her like before. She couldn't help frowning, and she was very angry.

snort!
Don't tell me where you go, and say you like me, Han Chunming, you are a big liar!

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became, she quickened her pace and walked into the backyard, then walked into the house angrily.

"Mengmeng is back! Hurry up and wash your face, dinner will be ready soon."

When Grandma Su saw Su Meng coming in, she immediately went to meet her and said with a smile.

"I'm not hungry, I don't want to eat!"

Su Meng replied a little irritably, turned around and entered her room, and sat on the chair sulking.

"Hey, what's the matter with you?"

Grandma Su froze for a moment, hurriedly followed in, and asked with concern.

"Grandma, I'm fine, I'm just a little tired after working all day."

Su Meng glanced at Grandma Su, shook her head and said.

"Okay, then you take a rest first!"

Grandma Su nodded and said.

After finishing speaking, she frowned thoughtfully, turned and walked out.

If she guessed right, her granddaughter might have conflicts with Han Chunming again.

Although she didn't want to see Su Meng unhappy, she even more didn't want to see Su Meng and Han Chunming get together. That kid Han Chunming was not doing his job all day long, and he would have nothing to do in the future.

It seems that she has to pay close attention to it recently.

Su Meng didn't know what Grandma Su was thinking, she secretly looked out of the window angrily, and wanted to settle accounts with Han Chunming, but she couldn't hold back that face.

Moreover, what made her most curious was how Han Chunming suddenly dressed so handsomely, and looked more temperamental than those cadres.

What's going on here?
Could it be that Han Chunming is getting along with other women?

After thinking about it, her face became very ugly, and she was also very angry in her heart.

No, I can't just be bullied so vaguely, I must ask clearly.

She stomped her feet vigorously, got up and walked out, told Grandma Su that she was going out to buy some ink, and then hurried to the middle courtyard.

Grandma Su frowned, and quietly followed behind.

Soon, Su Meng came outside Han Chunming's room and knocked on the window with gritted teeth.

Grandma Su saw this scene from behind, and immediately wanted to go forward and call Su Meng back.

However, before she could approach, the curtains were pulled back.

"Auntie, um, is Chunming there?"

Seeing Mother Han appearing in front of her eyes, Su Meng asked in embarrassment.

"He just went out. Do you have anything to do with him?"

Mother Han frowned and said.

"Oh it's all right."

Su Meng said with some disappointment.

Just when she was hesitating and wanted to let Mother Han tell Han Chunming that she had something to look for him, Grandma Su's voice suddenly sounded behind her.

"Mengmeng, what are you doing here?"

"Ah! Grandma, why did you come out?"

Su Meng was taken aback immediately, turned around hastily, and looked at Grandma Su in astonishment.

"I'll come out and call you home for dinner!"

Grandma Su glared at Su Meng, and said angrily.

"Auntie, then I'll go back first!"

Hearing this, Su Meng hurriedly turned her head to talk to Mother Han, and then took Grandma Su to the backyard.

Mother Han frowned slightly as she watched Su Meng and Grandma Su leave, then shook her head and put down the curtains.

At the same time, Han Chunming also walked into Mr. Guan's house with three small enamel-colored bowls taken out of the system warehouse and two bottles of white wine.

"Hey, old man, do you see what I brought you?"

"One piece, one bottle, two bottles, you have a heart, sit down!"

Mr. Guan's eyes fell on the two bottles one by one at the first time, and then he said with satisfaction.

"Hey!"

Han Chunming agreed, took off his shoes and got on the couch, and put the wine on the tea table.

Then, with a slight smile, he slowly placed the box in the other hand in front of Mr. Guan, and asked softly, "Mr., what you said before still counts!"

Mr. Guan was taken aback for a moment, then he put his eyes on the box, pondered for a while, and then said silently: "Open it!"

"Got it!"

Han Chunming nodded with a smile, reached out and opened the box, revealing three small enamel bowls placed side by side.

At the same time, a system notification sounded in his mind.

【Ding!The host helped Mr. Guan bring back three small enamel-colored bowls that he longed for, and the system rewarded 5888 happy coins. 】

Mr. Guan fixed his eyes on the small bowl in the box, his face was serious and calm.

After a while, with slightly trembling hands, he brushed over the three small bowls one by one, then slowly got up and got off the couch, walked to the cabinet behind, took out a small enamel bowl from the cabinet, and walked back .

Han Chunming got off the couch in a hurry, and stretched out his hand to support Mr. Guan. He didn't let go of his hand until Mr. Guan sat upright on the couch again, and sat opposite Mr. Guan.

Mr. Guan gently stroked the small bowl in his hand, and then took out the small bowls from the box one by one and placed them on the coffee table.

He looked at the four small bowls lined up in front of him, with tears in his eyes.

After a long time, he raised his head and looked at the sky, and said with a choked voice, "Teacher, the four of you are gathered together again, and I'll give Master all the best!"

"Got it!"

Han Chunming agreed, stretched out his hand to open the cap of the wine bottle, and filled the four small bowls one by one.

Mr. Guan raised his hand with a sad face, made a composition for the four small bowls, then held up a small bowl with trembling hands, and said with a choked voice: "Brother Cha Piaoxiang from Deshengmen, Gathering from Chongwenmen Friend, what you are holding now is your former nickname, what a pity! You left too early, buddy, I will drink it for you!"

After speaking, he brought the small bowl to his mouth, raised his head and drank it, and then slowly turned the small bowl upside down on the coffee table.

Afterwards, he made a song for the second small bowl, held the small bowl in front of his eyes, and said with a sob: "Go to Dongzhimen's wine, he is the most respected elder brother in my life, 30 years ago, with you In the tavern in Dongzhimen, we brothers drank for the last time."

"Brother, do it!"

At the end, he couldn't hide his grief, his eyes filled with tears, he put the small bowl to his mouth tremblingly, raised his head, poured the wine into his mouth, and swallowed it slowly.

Han Chunming watched as Mr. Guan put the small bowl upside down on the coffee table, and was about to pick up the third small bowl.

His heart moved, he hurriedly picked up the third small bowl, and said with a serious face: "Master, this third bowl for gathering friends, I will let my apprentice drink it for you. From now on, as long as I see this bowl, I will watch it." It’s time for Grandpa Nine Gates Admiral!”

After speaking, he raised his head and drank it down, then let out a mouthful of alcohol, and slowly turned the small bowl upside down on the table.

Seeing Han Chunming's performance, Mr. Guan had a flash of relief in his eyes. It was worthy of his careful training and teaching of Han Chunming over the years.

Although three of the four brothers are gone, and he is getting older, as long as he can pass on the belongings of his ancestors, then he will have no regrets even if he dies.

He lowered his head slowly, put his eyes on the last small bowl, cupped his hands and made a gesture, then picked up the small bowl, and said with a sad face: "Go back upstairs for the fourth bowl, Brother Chaoyangmen, It was he who proposed to use the names of these four small bowls to make our brothers four nicknames."

"Brother! Do it!"

After finishing speaking, he raised his head abruptly, poured all the wine in the bowl into his mouth, and the tears in his eyes could no longer hold back.

Even so, he still hasn't forgotten to put the small bowls upside down on the coffee table firmly and line them up.

Looking at the warm, simple and beautiful small bowl in front of him, his mind was full of brotherhood back then, and finally he couldn't help crying on the coffee table.

Seeing this, Han Chunming couldn't help feeling a little sad for a while.

Since ancient times, it is enough to have a confidant in life.

Not to mention four like-minded brothers.

It just happened to be that era, what a pity!
He got up and got off the couch, walked to Old Man Guan's side, reached out and patted Old Man Guan's shoulder, and said softly, "Master, don't cry, I think your friends don't want to see you like this."

"Take it!"

Mr. Guan raised his head and glanced at Han Chunming, raised his chin and said.

"Okay, then I'll go back first! I'll see you again in a few days!"

Han Chunming knew that Mr. Guan didn't want to see things and think about things again, so he nodded and agreed, then put the four small bowls into the box, turned and left.

Mr. Guan reached out to lift the wine bottle, looked at the door with deep eyes, and said nothing for a long time.

At the same time, in the tea building.

Li Chengtao struggled all night, and finally chose to fire Meng Xiaoxing first, and comfort Cai Xiaoli.

Meng Xiaoxing left Chabalou angrily, wanting to go back and complain to Han Chunming.

Seeing this, Cai Xiaoli breathed a sigh of relief, and her hatred for Han Chunming also decreased a little.

Li Chengtao wanted to send Cai Xiaoli home, but Cai Xiaoli sternly refused.

In desperation, he could only secretly follow Cai Xiaoli to prevent Cheng Jianjun from looking for Cai Xiaoli in private.

Sure enough, as soon as he arrived in the alley outside Cai Xiaoli's house, he saw Cheng Jianjun waiting for Cai Xiaoli to go home as usual.

Furious, he hurriedly sped up the bicycle a few times, rushed over and shouted at Cheng Jianjun angrily, "What are you doing here again?"

"Taozi, are you following me?"

Cai Xiaoli looked at Li Chengtao with a sullen face, and said angrily.

"Xiaoli, who do you think this is? I'm afraid they are sneaky because they want to do something bad!"

Cheng Jianjun said with an injustice on his face.

"Grandson, who are you talking about?"

Li Chengtao glared at Cheng Jianjun when he heard the words, as if he would do anything if he disagreed with him.

"Speaking of you! The stalker at night, girl, doesn't she want to do bad things?"

Cheng Jianjun said with a look of contempt.

"I was worried that Xiaoli would be deceived by you bastard!"

Li Chengtao said angrily.

"What are you talking about! When did I lie to Xiaoli, please stop talking nonsense."

Cheng Jianjun said with a sullen face.

"Okay, okay, stop arguing!"

Seeing that Li Chengtao and Cheng Jianjun were getting more and more gunpowder, Cai Xiaoli was worried that they would fight, so she hurriedly yelled to stop.

Li Chengtao glared at Cheng Jianjun with indignation.

Cheng Jianjun glanced at Li Chengtao triumphantly, then smiled and said to Cai Xiaoli: "Xiaoli, then I will come to you another day."

"Ok!"

Cai Xiaoli nodded slightly in agreement, then watched Cheng Jianjun leave.

"Xiaoli, have you forgotten what Chunming said? You can't get too close to this grandson!"

Li Chengtao walked up to Cai Xiaoli anxiously, and spoke persuasively.

"I know what's in my heart, so you don't need to worry about it."

Cai Xiaoli said something dissatisfied, and then pushed the bicycle into her yard.

Li Chengtao stood there with a dark face, watching Cai Xiaoli's back disappear at the gate of the courtyard, and said in a low voice through gritted teeth: "Cheng Jianjun, if you dare to snatch Xiaoli from me, I will never let you go."
