Era: Craftsmen in the Siheyuan

Chapter 110 "Private"

The young man who just took a breath of alcohol raised his head. He had a mole on his cheek as big as a table tennis ball. He raised the corner of his mouth and looked at Xu Deyong and said: "Man, this car is yours. It's in good condition. Let's see if it's OK." I mean, we are here to drink today."

After saying that, he waved and the three of them entered the tavern.

Xu Deyong raised his eyes and looked around, and a figure flashed into the alley.

He turned his eyes and went in with the remaining jar of wine. He saw three people each occupying a table, all looking at Xu Huizhen.

The young man with the mole smiled and knocked on the table and said, "Madam boss, give each of our brothers a drink or two."

Xu Huizhen glanced at her and said calmly: "We pay first and then drink."

The young man with the mole said: "You have to learn to be accommodating when doing business, otherwise no new customers will be willing to come."

"Yes, boss lady, you won't be able to do this business for a long time."

……

The other two people also said in a strange way.

Xu Huizhen's pretty face sank and she said: "If you come to drink, I welcome you, but if you come to cause trouble on purpose, then I can only call the police comrades from the police station."

The young man with the mole said: "No, we are just here to drink. We have nothing to do with you. If you call the police comrades here, you can at most reprimand us..."

"But!" He changed his voice and said, "You have to think about the consequences of doing this. You have a family and a business, and we brothers are all alone..."

The threat in the words cannot be overstated!
Xu Huizhen pursed her lips, with a firm and cold expression. When opening a business, she would inevitably encounter some drunkards and rotten people.

Xu Deyong put down the wine jar and said calmly: "You'd better pray that Cheng Er is as loyal as you are. I'll go find him later to see if it's my fist or his mouth that's tougher. I hope he's sent to the police station. He won’t say anything….”

The young man with the mole stood up after hearing this, stared at Xu Deyong and said: "Boy, the water is too deep and the wind is too strong. If you don't have the strength, stop talking!"

Xu Deyong looked at him without any hesitation and said: "There is no tree in the world that covers the sky. There is only one thing that descends from another. Are you worthy?"

The young man with the mole grinned and said coldly: "Okay, little thief, you have the guts. Let's ride on the donkey and read the songbook and see."

After saying that, they waved and the three of them left. Before leaving, they all glanced at Xu Deyong with unkind eyes.

Xu Huizhen bit her lip and said, "I'm sorry for bringing you into this. I was also blaming me that day. I felt soft and let Cheng Er go. I didn't expect to cause more trouble."

Xu Deyong smiled and said: "It's okay, he looks down on me and thinks I'm just a three-wheeler... Hey, he got it right!"

"Oh!"

At this time, there was a sound outside. It sounded like someone kicked his tricycle.

Xu Deyong grinned, showing his white teeth and said: "You stay here, don't come out, and don't make phone calls. I will take care of it, trust me."

His words were concise and powerful, and he strode out after speaking.

"Hey, you..." Xu Huizhen's heart beat for a while.

When the young man with a mole outside saw Xu Deyong, he smiled brightly and said, "I'm sorry, I accidentally bumped into your car..."

Xu Deyong was too lazy to talk nonsense with them. He walked up to him and said, "Find a place to draw a line. I'll do whatever you want."

The young man with the mole twitched his lips and said, "Private?"

"Private!"

"Whoever doesn't go to the grandson!"

……

The four of them came to a secluded old alley. Some of the small doors and back doors in the courtyard were not often opened, and there was still a vague smell of urine.

The young man with the mole waved his hand and the other two people blocked the alley. He raised his head and shook his head and said: "You hit my brother, as long as you pay compensation..."

"Snapped!"

Xu Deyong went up and scratched his head and said: "Compensation..."

"Fuck, hit me..."

"Pop, hit!"

"Mad, fuck him..."

"Pah, do it!"

……

Xu Deyong stacked three people on top of each other, and all three of them had a bit of saliva in their mouths.

He knelt down and patted the young man with the mole at the bottom and said, "Put on your socks first and then your shoes. Be a grandson first and then a master. Grandson, do you know?"

"I know... I know... we were wrong... we don't dare to do it again." The young man with the mole said vaguely.

Xu Deyong taught him earnestly and sincerely: "I know you are dissatisfied, but there will be no next time. I have been very gentle, otherwise I will not be able to help but drag you and bury you outside the city, with those princes and generals, don't let I’ll see you again.”

As he spoke, there was a "bang" sound, and he punched a green brick under his feet, and the green brick immediately fell into pieces.

The young man with the mole was a little dumbfounded. Only then did he realize what kind of fierce person he had provoked. He hated this bastard Cheng Er in his heart. It was so easy for a pretty widow to open a shop and help him vent his anger...

That's not venting their anger, I just want them to not vent their anger!

After the punch, Xu Deyong stood up and walked out of the alley with a calm expression.

After turning around, he immediately rubbed his fists and blew air, Mader, you are pretending too much, it hurts!
Never do such a stupid thing next time!
A little man like a big man took a dirty look at him and ran away immediately. Xu Deyong didn't bother to chase him...

……

Ten minutes later, Xu Deyong returned to the tavern.

Xu Huizhen breathed a sigh of relief when she saw him come back safely and said, "Are you okay? I'm... quite worried..."

Xu Deyong smiled, opened his hands and said, "It's okay. I mainly wanted to explain the facts to them and reason with them. Facts have proved that they are still very persuasive."

Xu Huizhen is not a little girl who is easily deceived. She whispered: "Are you fighting with them?"

Xu Deyong chuckled and said: "Let's compare, let's compare, they are willing to be defeated, and they probably won't come again."

Xu Huizhen opened her mouth in surprise and said, "There are three of them. You are really amazing."

Xu Deyong said: "It's just so so, but there's no problem in beating the three of them."

The two smiled at each other.

Xu Deyong's eyes are bright and confident.

Xu Huizhen's almond-shaped eyes narrowed slightly when she smiled, and there was a mixture of a girl and a young woman between her eyebrows.

Hey, nice looking!

After a moment, Xu Huizhen's eyes averted slightly, she stroked her hair beside her ears and said, "I haven't gone to see Li'er during this time. Please help me look at the store."

Then he twisted his round buttocks and hurried back.

Xu Deyong touched his nose and cursed secretly: Gou Ri De He Yongqiang!

Entering the backyard, Xu Huizhen heard the child's cry. She quickly entered the house, picked up the child and said, "Oh, don't cry, oh, I'm hungry..."

She unbuttoned her clothes, revealing the white snow child. The child stopped crying immediately after holding it in her mouth.

She patted the child gently, her eyes gradually wandering away...

……

When she finished packing her clothes and came out with the bamboo basket, she saw Xu Deyong chatting with Mr. Niu.

Mr. Niu is a real wine putty with a rich family background. He just likes to collect some and drink a few sips of wine every day when he has nothing to do.

Xu Huizhen greeted with a smile: "Master Niu, you are here."

Mr. Niu laughed and joked: "When I came in, you were not there, but Deyong greeted me. I thought you were a new waiter!"

Xu Huizhen said: "Master Niu, you are joking."

Xu Deyong stood up and said: "Shopkeeper, you are busy, I will go back first."

Xu Huizhen handed him the bamboo basket and said: "Take the things, wages..."

Xu Deyong smiled and took over: "You are not in a hurry for the money. It will not be too late after I finish tying the tables and stools for you."

Xu Huizhen nodded and said, "That's it, let's go home and rest after a hard journey."

Mr. Niu was slightly surprised when he heard this and said, "Oh, Deyong, you can also knock furniture?"

Xu Deyong smiled and said: "You know a little bit, I can just make a table, chairs and a bench, but it's quite complicated. I know you are an expert, so I have to learn more from you."

"Hi!" Mr. Niu said with a smile: "What's wrong with being an expert? But there are a lot of ways here. If you want to go out and get work, be careful."

Xu Deyong said: "It's not enough to take a job, as long as the shopkeeper doesn't mind it. In the future, if Mr. Niu encounters a job and needs a small job, just give him an order. I will also learn a lot from you."

Mr. Niu said cheerfully: "Sure, no problem."

Xu Deyong agreed to come to set the tables and benches tomorrow morning, left the tavern and got on his car to go home.

Children of all sizes can be seen everywhere in the streets and alleys, making a lot of noise.

Looks like it's school holidays!
There are not many homeworks at this time, and students are more encouraged to do various activities, including the activities called the "Little Five-Year Plan", which mainly include six items: cultivating plants; raising animals; helping agricultural production cooperatives and Do household chores; help the school make simple teaching experiment supplies; green the environment and green the school; be a "little teacher" and assist the party and government in eradicating illiteracy (such as teaching parents and neighbors to read, reading newspapers to literacy classes, etc.).

Learning is important, but practice is equally important.Xu Deyong returned to the courtyard and walked home carrying the bamboo basket.

Four children are queuing up to listen to the third uncle's assignment of cleaning the house.

"Third uncle, I'm busy during the holiday." Xu Deyong greeted.

Yan Bugui said with a smile: "Well, Deyong came back quite early."

The four children, big and small, shouted "Brother Deyong" in different directions.

As Yan Bugui spoke, his eyes fell on the bamboo basket, and he opened his little eyes and said, "Hey, Deyong, what kind of meat is this?"

Xu Deyong smiled and said: "Hare meat, I bought it from someone else when I went to Niulan Mountain to bring goods. I was given one as a gift before I left."

The four children couldn't help but swallowed.

Yanbu Gui also said, "Hey, that's a good relationship. They are very generous. I haven't eaten rabbit meat in many years."

Xu Deyong said: "There are some sold outside the vegetable market. It's much cheaper than pork. I'll go back now."

Yan Bugui watched Xu Deyong's figure disappear in the middle courtyard and muttered: "To put it bluntly, I don't know there is anything sold outside the vegetable market?"

Yan Jiecheng couldn't help but sigh and said, "Hey, I'm so envious of Brother Yong."

"I'm so envious of Brother Yong."

"I'm so envious of Brother Yong."

The formation is neat and uniform... Hey, one person is missing, it doesn't have much impact.

Yan Bugui: "..."

He said angrily: "Go, go, envy, go to someone else's house. I've divided the work. Tomorrow Tanggua will share half of it first. If you can't finish it the day after tomorrow, there won't be anything left."

"Oh……."

Several people responded helplessly in long tones.

When Xu Deyong returned home, he began to pack up the rabbits, clean them, chop them into pieces...

When Xu Nan came back, she was naturally happy to see her grandson coming back with rabbit meat. She put it in the pot and stewed it, and the aroma of the meat wafted...

……

The next day, Xiaonian.

23——Tanggua is sticky.

Tanggua is a highly viscous sugar made from yellow rice and malt. When it is drawn into a long candy stick, it is called "Guandong candy", and when it is drawn into an oblate shape, it is called "Tanggua".

This night is New Year's Eve, and we have to worship the Kitchen God.

As the saying goes: Sugar melons are sacrificed to the stove. When the New Year comes, girls want flowers, boys want cannons, old ladies want new cloth shirts, and old men want new felt hats.

Legend has it that the Kitchen God will go to heaven to report the good and evil deeds of the family to the Jade Emperor on this day, so that the Jade Emperor can reward and punish them.

Xu Deyong doesn't care about this, he still wakes up early to exercise. Nothing is better than good health. Only when good health is good will he not be afraid of others playing "yin" with him...

He Yuzhu smacked his lips and said, "The rabbit you stewed last night smelled bad to me. If you leave it to me..."

Xu Deyong interrupted: "There is still some soup base left, why don't you show your hand again."

"Hehehehe..." He Yuzhu said with a smile: "That's not necessary, then, when will you let me really show you my skills?"

Naturally, this guy still remembers Xu Deyong asking him to cook and have a meal together.

Xu Deyong said: "Isn't it the Chinese New Year yet? We are waiting for thirty."

"Ah..." He Yuzhu opened his mouth and said, "You are talking about the New Year's Eve dinner!"

Xu Deyong said calmly: "After you make it, you can share a portion and take it home to eat."

He Yuzhu said: "That way, I can still feel comfortable having New Year's Eve dinner at my own home."

Xu Deyong ignored him and opened the blind box with a thought after the exercise.

"Snapped!"

A large bun with various cooking spices appeared in the blind box space, such as star anise, fragrant leaves, angelica...

Xu Deyong: "..."

Yes, this designation was given to the cook He Yuzhu just now.

Although it is a young year, you still have to work when you are supposed to go to work.

Xu Deyong tidied up at home for a while, put the tools on the board and got into the car after eight o'clock, and came to the tavern.

Xu Huizhen was clearing the table. When she saw him coming, she said, "Park the car at the main entrance of the backyard. It's convenient to go that way."

Xu Deyong followed his example and rode to the back. Xu Huizhen had already opened the door and brought in all the tools.

Xu Huizhen didn't close the door, and she also wanted to avoid suspicion.

She looked around and said, "The wood is under the shed over there. It was saved by the old people. You can use it as you see fit."

Xu Deyong went over and took a look and said: "Hey, there are a lot of good wood. I'll just pick some common ones and use them. Just make them strong. Good wood will be wasted after use."

Xu Huizhen said: "Leave it to you, don't ask me."

Xu Deyong nodded and said, "That won't disturb the children, right?"

"It's okay, Li'er is obedient. After eating, she fell asleep so hard that she couldn't wake up." Xu Huizhen showed a motherly smile.

Xu Deyong didn't say any more and started to work in an orderly manner, with two tables, eight benches...

……

While Xu Deyong was working, a figure appeared at the door of the tavern with a scroll in his hand.

Seeing that the door of the tavern was closed, I thought for a moment and then walked towards the back.

When I got to the back, I saw Xu Deyong's tricycle parked at the door. The courtyard door was wide open, and Xu Deyong's figure was busy inside.

He rolled his eyes, stepped aside, pondered for a moment and turned back...

……

Time flies when you focus on one thing.

Before the sun went down, Xu Deyong made the tables and stools and polished them. He had to wait until they were painted.

While he was working, he also took care of the child for a long time.

The little girl laughed whenever he was teased, listening to him digging, chiseling, and hammering. When it was time to sleep, when it was time to poop and when it was time to pee, she woke up and listened intently to her own play.

Xiao Lier is quite a rare person!

He packed his things and washed his hands.

At this time, Xu Huizhen took the time to come over and said with gentle eyes: "Master Niu and Master Pian are here, why don't you come over and have a drink?"

Xu Deyong wiped his hands on his body and said, "Okay, then go over and have a drink."

He went out and entered the main entrance of the tavern, and briefly said hello to Master Niu and Master Pian.

Xu Huizhen gave him two ounces of wine, handed him a plate of tripe, and whispered: "Turk back knot."

Xu Deyong smiled without being polite, nodded and took the seat opposite Master Niu and said, "Master Niu, I cannot do without you every day!"

Mr. Niu chuckled and said, "No, that's all I have left to like!"

The film master smiled and said: "Deyong, I see your tricycle is parked behind you all the time. What are you doing at the shopkeeper's house?"

Xu Deyong was about to answer when Xu Hesheng, a primary school teacher, walked in and ordered two taels of wine and a plate of peanuts. He looked at Xu Deyong twice and slowly sat down opposite the film master.

"What did you say just now that you are so happy?" Xu Hesheng said with a faint smile.

Mr. Niu said with a smile: "It is said that Yong has built two tables and benches at the shopkeeper's house. After two days, there will be two more tables here."

"The relationship is good, and there are so many people and it's lively." Xu Hesheng echoed, and then said: "Hey, Deyong, I remember your surname is Xu, we are from the same family!"

Xu Deyong said: "You can't compare with Teacher Xu. You are a man of culture. I only ride three wheels and know some miscellaneous crafts!"

Xu Hesheng laughed and said: "We all rely on our own labor to make a living. There is no distinction between superior and inferior. I think you are still young and are not married, right?"

Xu Huizhen, who was drinking in the back, paused slightly.

Xu Deyong smiled and said: "You are wise, I won't be old enough to get married until after the Chinese New Year."

Hearing this, Xu Hesheng narrowed his eyes and said, "Well, you have a car and skills, you make a lot of money a day, and you are good-looking enough to please young girls. You are young and promising. You need to find a young girl. Do you need me to introduce you to you?" one?"
