The heavens set sail from the courtyard

Chapter 530 Eating
Xu Hongdou didn't know why she asked Xie Xiaochun, was Wang Gang her boyfriend?Maybe I just feel curious about the relationship between the two.

In terms of address, Xie Xiaochun and Wang Gang don't seem to be considered close. One is called Brother Wang and the other is Xiaochun. They are close but not close.

But Xu Hongdou could see that Xie Xiaochun had great trust in Wang Gang and could ask him for help in anything.

That's why I'm curious about the relationship between the two, it's pure gossip, and I have no other thoughts.

"Brother Wang is not my boyfriend." Xie Xiaochun said generously: "But Brother Wang is very enthusiastic, and he will always help with what he can. You will know after a long time."

Xu Hongdou stopped asking.

Xie Xiaochun seemed to be really busy, and he left the room after a few words with Xu Hongdou.

Xu Hongdou put down her handbag, walked around the room, more and more satisfied, and muttered to herself:
"Nan Xing, I have finally come to the Dali you yearn for, have you seen it in the sky?"

Xu Hongdou took out a Polaroid from her bag, and a few photos, all of which were the scenery she took along the way, as well as the unique architecture of Yunnan.

She searched and found that there was a board in the room, which was just right for posting photos.

Xu Hongdou wrote a few words on the back of the photo, mostly the address in the photo, or the impression of travel, and then posted it on the board.

After finishing all this, Xu Hongdou remembered that Wang Gang was going to take her to find Xie Zhiyuan, so she hurriedly tidied up and left the room.

In the corridor, Wang Gang was already waiting there.

"Sorry for wasting your time." Xu Hongdou said politely when he saw Wang Gang.

"It doesn't matter, I just came out." Wang Gang pointed to the north and said: "Xie Zhiyuan's house is next door, but we have to go around."

Xu Hongdou looked along Wang Gang's fingers and found that Xie Zhiyuan's home was just across the street from Youfeng Courtyard, but the entrance was in two directions, and he had to go around the courtyard to get there.

Wang Gang led the way, Xu Hongdou followed, and arrived at Xie's house within a few steps.

The door of Xie's house was left open and concealed, so Wang Gang pushed the door open and walked in. As soon as he entered, he shouted, "Grandma, are you home? I'm here again for dinner."

"Xiao Gang! Come in quickly, we are preparing to serve dinner." In the yard, an old lady was carrying a plate of dishes and was walking from the kitchen to the living room when she saw Xu Hongdou behind Wang Gang, who was slightly taken aback.

"Whose girl is this, she is so handsome." The old lady laughed.

"This is Xu Hongdou, the new tenant of Youfeng Courtyard." Wang Gang introduced, "She's here to find A Yuan."

"Looking for A Yuan?" Grandma Xie asked strangely: "That child A Yuan hasn't come back yet?"

"A Yuan's nose is a dog, and he will come back when he smells the food. Let's wait a while." Wang Gang laughed.

"Brother Wang, I don't want you to arrange people like this." A voice came from behind, Xu Hongdou looked back and found the boy who bumped into her.

There was another person next to the boy who was walking through the door together.

The man was in his early thirties, with single eyelids and thin lips, making him look very energetic.

"Who is this?" The man's eyes lit up slightly when he saw Xu Hongdou.

Wang Gang introduced it again, then pointed to Xie Zhiyuan, and said to Xu Hongdou: "He is the one who bumped into you, and next to him is his elder brother Xie Zhiyao."

When Xie Zhiyao heard that he was bumping into someone, his face darkened, and he grabbed his younger brother's ear and asked, "What trouble did you get into outside again?"

Xie Zhiyuan shouted injustice: "I don't have it! I don't even know her?"

Xu Hongdou explained: "Just now your brother was chasing a horse, hit me, and broke my phone."

When Xie Zhiyao heard it, he said nervously: "Could it be that A Yuan hit you with his horse? Does it matter? Do you need to go to the hospital?"

Xu Hongdou saw that Xie Zhiyao did not shirk responsibility, but cared about her well-being, and immediately felt much better.

"It wasn't the horse that hit me, it was the horse chased by your brother. He bumped into me. I'm fine, but the phone is broken."

Xu Hongdou took out the phone with the broken screen and showed it to Xie Zhiyao.

At this time, Xie Zhiyuan also recalled the trouble he caused, he turned his head in a numb manner, avoiding the hand extended by his elder brother, and rubbed his feet with oil.

It's a pity that he escaped his elder brother, but not Wang Gang.

Wang Gang reached out, grabbed Xie Zhiyuan's collar and lifted him up.

"I want to run away after doing something wrong!" Wang Gang chuckled, and then referred him to Xie Zhiyao.

Xie Zhiyao raised his foot and kicked his brother's ass, saying: "Hurry up and apologize!"

Xie Zhiyuan held his butt, reluctantly said to Xu Hongdou: "I'm sorry."

Xie Zhiyao kicked his younger brother again, and shouted, "What kind of attitude is that?"

Wang Gang stood aside and watched the play, but he also found it interesting.

"Stop beating, stop beating, I forgive your brother." Xu Hongdou was kind and couldn't bear Xie Zhiyuan being beaten.

Xie Zhiyao said to his younger brother: "I will deal with you later."

Turning around, he said to Xu Hongdou again: "I will compensate you how much is your mobile phone. You can decide whether to repair it or buy a new one."

Xu Hongdou said: "I have important things in my mobile phone, so I can fix it as soon as I can. I will pay half of the cost when the time comes! After all, the mobile phone has been used for a year."

Seeing Xu Hongdou being so reasonable, Xie Zhiyao said, "Okay, that's it, have you eaten yet? How about eating together!"

"It's inconvenient!" Xu Hongdou said with some scruples.

Grandma Xie said: "It's nothing inconvenient, it's a common meal, I'm afraid you won't be used to it."

"Yes!" Xie Zhiyao said: "Just treat it as if I invited you to dinner, and it's an apology."

Xu Hongdou originally wanted to refuse, but her stomach growled unbearably at this moment, which made her very embarrassed.

Wang Gang said: "Your mobile phone is broken, and you don't have any cash with you, right? You don't have money to pay the bill when you go out to eat."

It was only then that Xu Hongdou remembered that she really didn't have much cash with her, and she was used to paying with her mobile phone.

"Alright then!" Xu Hongdou could only stay and eat.

Xie Zhiyao shouted to his younger brother: "What are you doing there? Hurry up and help grandma with food."

Wang Gang reminded: "Take out some of the pickles that Grandma pickled."

Xie Zhiyao greeted Xu Hongdou to take a seat, and then took out 200 yuan from his wallet.

"You take this money for emergency first."

"No, I'll go back to the bank in the ancient city to withdraw money!" Xu Hongdou said shyly.

"You're welcome, after the phone is repaired, it will be counted together." Xie Zhiyao pushed the money in front of Xu Hongdou.

Wang Gang also persuaded: "Take it! You come to Yunmiao Village alone, it's more convenient if you have money."

Xu Hongdou thought about it too, so he accepted the 200 yuan.

"When the mobile phone is repaired later, the money will be deducted from the repair fee."

Xie Zhiyao shrugged indifferently.

Grandma Xie and Xie Zhiyao brought out the rice and gave Xu Hongdou a bowl full, which made her a little dumbfounded.

A big bowl of rice was too much to eat, and it seemed impolite to leave too much. Xu Hongdou was in trouble.

"If you have a lot of food, you can share it with me." Wang Gang spared Xu Hongdou's embarrassment.

"Okay." Xu Hongdou felt that Wang Gang was very caring, and he could always spare her troubles at the most critical time.

Wang Gang allocated half of the rice in the Xu Hongdou bowl to himself, and then began to feast on it.

"Grandma, your cooking skills are getting better and better. I can't get enough of your cooking." Wang Gang never forgot to praise him while eating.

"You come here to eat every day if it's delicious." Grandma Xie smiled kindly, as if she liked to see the children eat big mouthfuls.

As long as the children are eating happily, that is the happiest thing for her.

Xu Hongdou eats very politely, chewing and swallowing slowly, but he may be hungry, so he is not slow to pick up his chopsticks.

She also thinks Grandma Xie's dishes are delicious, like a grandma's.

"Girl, eat more, don't be too polite, just treat it as your own home." Grandma Xie smiled and said to Xu Hongdou: "I don't have anything good to entertain you, we grow these vegetables ourselves."

Xu Hongdou nodded and praised: "Grandma, the food you cook is so delicious and fresh, I can't even eat it in the capital."

"Eat as much as you like, there is still in the pot if you don't have enough." Grandma Xie said kindly.

When Xu Hongdou heard this, her eyes were a little red. She thought of her grandma. She and her sister lived in her grandma's house before, and her old man said similar things.

Grandma Xie had lived her whole life, her eyes were very poisonous, she sensed that Xu Hongdou was in a bad mood, but she didn't say anything, she just pushed a plate of meat in front of Xu Hongdou.

Xu Hongdou almost didn't cry, Grandma Xie's behavior was exactly the same as that of her deceased grandma.

My grandma was like this when I was a child. I was reluctant to eat any delicious food, and would push it all to her and my sister.

Others at the dinner table also noticed the change in Xu Hongdou's mood, but they pretended not to see it.

Xie Zhiyao and Wang Gang did it to avoid Xu Hongdou's embarrassment, while Xie Zhiyuan was heartless.

Xu Hongdou lowered his head, remained silent, and soon finished half a bowl of rice.

While eating, Xie Zhiyao glanced at Xu Hongdou with a different look in his eyes.

As a bystander, Wang Gang was open-minded, thinking that this pair in front of him should be an official match!

Looking back, it has been almost 20 years since I came to this world.
