Era: Craftsmen in the Siheyuan

Chapter 184 One or two trends in the world

Chen Xueru sat down opposite Xu Deyong with a sullen look on her face and said, "Huizhen, give me half a pound of Erguotou, another plate of tripe, and a glass of beer for Elena."

Elena sat nearby and shrugged at Xu Deyong.

Xu Deyong blinked and said nothing.

Xu Huizhen held a wine bottle in one hand and a small plate in the other and said, "Sister Xueru, what's wrong? Who offended you."

As he said that, he turned around and took a glass of beer for Elena and put it in front of her.

Elena thanked her.

Chen Xueru poured a small cup, drank half of it, put it down with a "pop" and said: "It's not the official manager of the silk store. I just came from the neighborhood committee, and I haven't found a suitable candidate for such a long time. Listen to the director. I mean, some people still refuse, as if they are avoiding me like a snake or a scorpion, and you think that’s irritating.”

Xu Huizhen sat down and said, "This matter cannot be urgent. Isn't the public manager of my tavern vacant for a while?"

Chen Xueru rolled her eyes and said, "I'm different from you."

Then his eyes fell on Xu Deyong and said: "Otherwise, let your family take charge. Anyway, we are so close and there are no outsiders."

Xu Deyong couldn't help but grin when he heard this. How come people were still staring at him in the past two days.

Alas, the troubles of being too good!

Elena nodded and said, "I think Deyong is very suitable."

Xu Deyong shook his head and said: "I don't think it's suitable. I don't know much about fabrics and silk. Sister Xueru is so independent. There will definitely be all kinds of friction. Sister Xueru is still suitable to find a relatively obedient partner." ….”

Before he finished speaking, film master Qiu Pupu walked in.

Xu Deyong immediately changed his mind and said: "I think it would be more suitable for me to see the film master. When the time comes, the management will definitely have the final say, Sister Xueru."

A look of confusion flashed in the film master's eyes, and he said with a smile on his face: "Hey, you are talking about me, what am I suitable for?"

"To tell you the truth, I can't even drink anymore anymore. The alcohol bug in my stomach gets noisy every day when I come here. I'd like to introduce you to some good ways to make a living."

Chen Xueru said with a look of disdain on her lips: "Do you know how to make a good living? You can't carry it on your shoulders or lift it with your hands, so you can only sing a few old lyrics."

"Hey, yes, Boss Chen, you are right." The film master was not annoyed, but still smiled and said: "Shopkeeper Huizhen, give me two taels for the seven cents and one tael."

Xu Huizhen smiled and stood up to give the film master a drink.

The film master said "Smash it", took a small sip, took out some salt grains from his pocket and threw it into his mouth. He felt comfortable.

Call him poor. He has a big yard with two entrances and his children are all married. Call him rich, but he usually doesn’t have much time in his pocket!

Chen Xueru looked at Xu Deyong and said, "You really don't want to go? If you don't go, I won't give you any of the previous money."

The money she mentioned was Xu Deyong's previous reward for providing him with information about the secret agents in the backyard.

Xu Deyong smiled and said: "That doesn't belong to me."

"Hmph." Chen Xueru said angrily: "You can be aloof, and you can pedal three wheels at home with the "Hedong Lion" in charge."

Xu Huizhen came over with a smile and said: "Sister Xueru, we must not gossip behind our backs."

Chen Xueru chuckled and said: "I don't think there is anything behind it. I am in front of you. Sit down and have a drink with me."

Xu Huizhen shook her head and said, "I'm at work now, so I can't drink with my guests. Let's do it next time."

Zhewan glanced at Xu Deyong, turned around and walked to the counter.

Compared to Chen Xueru, Elena chatted with Xu Deyong very freely. Now her transnational business is back on track.

"Deyong, I really like this bag of yours, thank you." Elena shook the small Chinese-style bamboo bag and said.

Xu Deyong smiled and said: "As long as you like it, after all, I paid a fee."

Elena smiled and said: "I think it's totally worth the money. If you can make more styles, I think it will be very marketable."

Xu Deyong spread his hands and said: "I have only one person and can't make a market. Besides, this is not the main bamboo-producing area. It is in the south of our country. There are many bamboo weaving masters there. If you really want to do it, it's completely You can apply to the relevant departments.”

Elena said: "That would be too troublesome, I don't have that much energy."

Chen Xueru saw that Elena kept chatting with Xu Deyong, picked up the wine glass and said: "Don't keep talking, drink."

"Cheers." Elena said, picking up the beer glass.

Chen Xueru finished a glass of wine and said, "Do you really think he is more suitable?"

This is what he naturally calls the film master.

Xu Deyong smiled faintly and said: "I think he should be included in the list given by the neighborhood committee. Whether it is suitable or not is not your decision. Your silk shop is considered a key merchant in the street. If the public manager remains vacant like this, the street may one day Just arrange it directly, and you won’t have the initiative when the time comes.”

Chen Xueru was thoughtful, then suddenly glared at him.

Xu Deyong felt a little baffled.

Chen Xueru is also a decisive person. She held the wine glass and said sideways: "Master Film, how about I introduce you to a job that will allow you to drink every day?"

"Oh, Manager Xueru, you really promoted me." Master Pian's eyes lit up when he heard this, he slapped his sleeves directly, hit Xu Qian and saluted, "Master Pian, I'm being polite here."

Chen Xueru raised her hand with a smile and said, "I'm sorry."

"Hey." Mr. Pian stood up and sat on the bench, looking at her with a smile.

Xu Deyong smiled when he saw this. This guy can easily get carried away. At this moment, if he looks back on his actions, he will be labeled.

Chen Xueru smiled softly and said lightly: "How about you come to my silk store and be the official manager?"

When the film master heard this, he was stunned on the spot.

Seeing his expression, Chen Xueru smiled slightly and said, "Why, you don't want to?"

"No!" The film master reacted and said quickly: "No, no, you... aren't you teasing me?"

Chen Xueru said with a hint of arrogance in her tone: "If you don't believe me, then I'll find someone else."

"I believe it, I believe it." The film master was so surprised by the news that his legs became weak and said: "Then Manager Xueru, if I can really become the official manager of the silk store, then you will be a great compliment to me. I don’t even know what to say.”

Chen Xueru said calmly: "Don't be like Fan Jin when the time comes. You will be a stumbling block for the private manager."

"That can't be done, that can't be done." The film master said quickly, "When the time comes, I will definitely follow your lead..."

Before he finished speaking, Fan Jinyou's voice came: "Chen Xueru, as soon as I entered the door, I heard you chewing your tongue behind your back. Your tongue is too long!"

Xu Deyong was also amused when he saw this. This man was really afraid of whispering behind his back, and people would come as soon as he whispered.

Naturally, Chen Xueru was not afraid of him at all. She raised her chin slightly and said, "What's the matter, you don't want others to tell the truth anymore? Yes, the truth is offensive to your ears. It's normal for you, Fan Jin, not to listen."

Fan Jinyou sneered and said: "Why can't I listen anymore? Now I am also a substitute teacher in the literacy class. What I do is obvious to everyone. Don't keep looking at me in the same light."

Xu Huizhen smiled and smoothed things over and said, "Okay, okay, this literacy class is over, so everyone should stop talking."

Fan Jinyou said: "I give Huizhen manager face, and I don't have the same experience as you."

Then he walked to the counter and said, "Manager Huizhen, give me two taels and a plate of rice noodles."

At this time, Mr. Niu hung the birdcage on the side of the door and swaggered to sit down in front of Mr. Pian's table.

Chen Xueru sneered from behind: "Humph, it's really a toad that wants to eat swan meat, so it's not just to see what level you are." Fan Jinyou turned around and said unhappily: "Who are you talking about!"

Chen Xueru held the wine glass leisurely and said: "Why are you in a hurry? Did you say your name?"

Then he said to the film master: "Master film, if you dare to tell me, I will go to the street and agree to let you be the official manager of the silk store. This will save people from worrying about you behind your back!"

The film master glanced at Fan Jinyou, smiled and said, "Yes, Manager Xueru, I will follow your orders and follow the arrangements of the street."

Mr. Niu was happy when he heard this and said: "Hey, that's really true. Mr. Pian, you will start to shake in the future. You have to call me Manager Qiu."

Mr. Pian quickly waved his hand and said, "Hey, Mr. Niu, please don't belittle me. I haven't even written this character yet."

When Fan Jin heard this, his face suddenly turned blue and white. He felt that this was Chen Xueru's naked insult to him.

I would rather let a pianist and singer be the public manager than propose to the street that he come and give him a chance.

The key is to say it in front of so many people, and say that he is a toad.

You must know that he had spoken to Chen Xueru in a low voice before.

He couldn't help clenching his fists. At this moment, he resented Chen Xueru more than Xu Huizhen!

Xu Huizhen handed him the wine and side dishes and said, "Well, Fan Jinyou, don't be angry. It's not like you don't know. Xueru's temper is just like this, and she didn't deliberately target anyone. Go ahead and drink."

Fan Jinyou took the small jug and drank two ounces of wine in one gulp. He put the small jug back on the counter with a "pop" and said, "There is someone here. This wine makes people unhappy. Let's go."

After saying that, he turned around and strode out of the tavern, passing by Xu Hesheng who was about to come in, not even paying attention to the rice sausage.

Xu Hesheng didn't know why and said, "Hey, Fan Jinyou, what's wrong with you?"

He walked in and heard everyone talking.

Xu Deyong blinked his eyes innocently. It's not his fault. He just made a suggestion. Chen Xueru gave Fan Jinyou an example to the film director, and he happened to hear it.

This made Fan Jin very angry, which could be seen from the fact that he clenched his fists to hold back his anger before leaving.

However, after being messed with like this by Chen Xueru, has Fan Jin completely turned into a black man?

Fan Jin sometimes likes to cause trouble, but there is a limit to how bad he can be. Now this guy's way to change the status quo in the short term is blocked... Wow, that's a bit miserable!

Chen Xueru sneered and said: "Tsk, he's just a bastard. He's so airy. If you don't know, you'd think he's a cadre!"

Xu Deyong couldn't help but grin. This girl's mouth really kills people without a knife. Fortunately, Fan Jinyou left, otherwise there might be a small universe explosion or something.

He thought for a while and realized that Fan Jinyou could not accomplish anything, but he still had the ability to do "bad things", so he advised Chen Xueru: "Sister Xueru, don't offend him too harshly. I have some ability and know some people in society.”

Chen Xueru turned her eyes and said a little harshly: "I'm not afraid of him."

Xu Deyong shook his head and said nothing. If you don't talk about other people's affairs when you meet them, it means that there is no business in the world and it is none of my business...

……

Half the moon is hanging in the sky, and the tavern is closed.

When the couple returned home, Xu Deyong came to the door. Xu Huizhen, who was holding Xiao Li'er, frowned slightly.

Xu Deyong asked: "What's wrong?"

Said and took Xiao Li'er.

Xiao Li'er had a good night's sleep and was in good spirits. She bit her teething stick and looked up at the moon curiously from time to time.

Xu Huizhen held her stomach and said a little shyly: "It's menstruation."

"Ah..." Xu Deyong was stunned for a moment and said, "Then you go back to the house and rest quickly, and I will get you some brown sugar water."

"Yeah." Xu Huizhen nodded.

The two entered the room, and Xu Huizhen asked him to wait outside the room while she wanted to deal with it.

At this time, women were using reusable menstrual pads. As for imported sanitary napkins, they were invented in 1888. However, it was not until 1920 in Europe and the United States that reusable menstrual pads were gradually replaced by disposable sanitary napkins.

In other words, it took 32 years for people to gradually accept this new feminine hygiene product.

The first sanitary napkin production line was introduced in China in 1982 at the beginning of reform and opening up.

Heck, it’s not easy for women either.

Of course, it is not as magical as in later generations. For example, running 500 meters is exhausting, but a day of shopping can make you strong; bathing in cold water makes you shiver from the cold, and wearing stockings in winter is no big deal; memory is not good, and the sense of direction is still poor, and old accounts are turned over. The same thing doesn't happen; you bleed for a month and still don't hang up for seven days. Why doesn't this scare the gentlemen?

At this time, female train drivers and tractor drivers were role models that everyone admired.

Women at this time can hold up half the sky, and women in later generations can hold up half the sky!

Xu Deyong put Xiao Li'er into the crib and poured a bowl of brown sugar water for Xu Huizhen.

After Xu Huizhen finished cleaning up, she went out to drink. The heat of the water made her stomach feel much better.

At this time, Xu Deyong stopped thinking about doing bad things, and the two of them lay on the bed honestly.

Xu Deyong put his hand on Xu Huizhen's lower abdomen, using the heat of his big hand to give him some warmth.

Xu Huizhen leaned lazily in his arms and touched his abdominal muscles without wanting to move at all. Well, not to mention, it felt really good.

"Deyong." Xu Huizhen muttered.

"Ah."

"Can we grow old together forever?"

Xu Deyong said softly: "Of course."

Xu Huizhen suddenly said: "Do you also like Chen Xueru's look?"

Xu Deyong: "..."

The muscles in his body couldn't help but tighten slightly.

Xu Huizhen put her hand on his abdominal muscles and naturally felt it. She opened her eyes and hummed: "Humph, you must have been right!"

Naturally, Xu Deyong would not admit it even to death: "No, of course I like you the most. You are my wife."

Xu Huizhen said: "But people say that a wife is worse than a concubine, and a concubine is worse than a thief..."

Xu Deyong said sternly: "It's nonsense, of course it's my wife who is the best."

"Then what's good about me?" Xu Huizhen raised her head and asked.

Xu Deyong thought for a while and said: "Three autumn leaves have fallen, and February flowers can bloom. Thousands of feet of waves across the river, thousands of bamboo poles leaning into it."

"Hmm!" Xu Huizhen frowned and said, "You said I am the wind and disappear as soon as it blows?"

Xu Deyong smiled slightly and said: "I said you are a piece of cake in the world, filling my hundreds of dreams."

After saying that, he felt Xu Huizhen's delicate body in his arms tremble slightly and became hot. He raised his head and said, "Kiss me..."
