Era: Craftsmen in the Siheyuan

Chapter 58 The cold window is about to dawn

Xu Nanshi tasted a little of each, nodded and said: "It's so delicious, these things..."

Xu Deyong said: "Boss Chen and the others bought it, and I took advantage of it."

A smile suddenly appeared on Xu Nan's face and she said, "No, you have to thank me properly."

"I know." Xu Deyong responded casually.

Xu Nanshi looked at the good things on the table and said, "It's so late. Grandma should put the things away first and eat them later."

Xu Deyong naturally had no objection and just said: "Don't be reluctant to eat it."

"I know." Xu Nanshi muttered: "How can you finish eating good things so quickly? The pastries you bought last time haven't been finished yet!"

When Xu Deyong heard this, he could only shake his head helplessly. This was really hopeless.

After Xu Nan packed up her things, she couldn't help but asked in a low voice: "As for the wages... did Boss Chen give them?"

"Here you go!" Xu Deyong took out the envelope from his arms and put it on the table.

"How much?" Xu Nan asked eagerly.

Xu Deyong said lazily: "I didn't look at it either. It's either five yuan or ten yuan."

Xu Nanshi took the envelope, happily opened it carefully and said: "Logically speaking, we can't say anything if we don't give it to us. After all, you are wearing clothes, and you are also..."

Before she finished speaking, Xu Nanshi felt a little stuck when she looked at the envelope.

Xu Deyong couldn't help asking: "Why, how much is it?"

Xu Nanshi frowned slightly, took out four five-yuan "big bills" and said: "Two...twenty, this is too much!"

Xu Deyong raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and thought to himself: "This girl is so generous! Oh, I should have seen it first and kept half of it."

At this point, he had no choice but to say: "It's okay. I helped you a little in Shanghai. If you want to express your gratitude, just keep it."

Xu Nanshi said: "As the saying goes, no reward will be given without merit. Even if you help, it's your job. Although our family is poor and short of money, we can't take so much."

As she spoke, she pulled out two pieces with a look of reluctance and said: "You return these ten yuan to Boss Chen, and we will accept the rest shamelessly. In the future, you have to help me more when someone has something to do. You can't always be in debt."

"Okay, okay." Xu Deyong nodded in agreement and accepted the 'lost and recovered' ten dollars. Grandma was really 'becoming more and more reasonable'.

"You must return it to others." Xu Nanshi warned.

"Definitely and definitely." Xu Deyong assured.

I have to talk to this bitch Chen Xueru later. Although the old lady usually won't ask, what if it happens?
The persona of my great grandson cannot be destroyed!
There is one thing, this girl Chen Xueru always seems to want to take her under her wing and make her an obedient monster... Bah, good employee.

This is not okay. This bitch is too controlling. If she becomes an employee, she may always be beneath her.

He is not the one who takes the initiative, he wants to be the active one.

Even down there, he is active!

The future is long, so let’s take it one step at a time.

At this time, Xu Nanshi remembered something and said: "By the way, that dish... Cai Quanwu, I came here two days ago and didn't say anything. I just asked you if you were back and then scanned it." The yard is gone.”

Xu Deyong nodded to show that he knew that the things he had given him were correct!

"Oh, and He Yuzhu, I don't know what's wrong with him. He even asked me if I needed help, but I ignored him..."

……

At the end of the year, the end of the world, when the cold window is about to dawn.

Xu Deyong opened his eyes and looked at the dim light coming through the dilapidated windows.

The lights in grandma's room were already on, and she could hear the sound of making steamed rice noodles.

At this time, food stamps were already rationed, and were divided into nine levels of supply standards based on labor differences, age, and historical consumption habits in different regions.

Among them, the monthly food supply standard for special heavy manual laborers in Forty-Nine City is 60 kilograms, and the monthly food supply standard for an ordinary resident is 28 kilograms.

Xu Deyong pedals three wheels and is considered a heavy manual laborer, weighing more than 40 kilograms per month.

The grains supplied are coarse grains and fine grains in a certain proportion.You can still be full after eating at this time, but if you want to eat well, you have to rely on your own abilities!
After Xu Deyong got up and went out to stretch and practice boxing, he picked up a familiar stone. He felt lighter after not holding it for a week.

Well, when you go back to look for rocks, you need to make one side rounder, and hold it in a squat to make it more comfortable...

At this time, He Yuzhu came out yawning. He raised his eyebrows when he saw Xu Deyong and said, "Hey, why did you come back without making a sound!"

Xu Deyong glanced at him and said, "Why, do you want to hear the noise?"

The corners of He Yuzhu's mouth twitched and he said: "Hey, can't I just say casually, how is Shanghai going, let's talk about it?"

"Just tell me!" Xu Deyong said while exercising.

He Yuzhu curled his lips and said: "Why do you want me to pour water for tea?"

Xu Deyong said: "You don't need to pour water for the tea. Let's do this. You make a few dishes to go with the wine. I still have half a bottle of good wine. I'll drink some in the evening to give you some insights."

He Yuzhu muttered: "What kind of wine do you have? Don't lose out on the food if I take it in."

Xu Deyong said leisurely: "I brought back some special cakes from Shanghai. Tsk, they are really delicious. I wanted to get some at night..."

When He Yuzhu heard this, he couldn't help but swallowed with excitement, and immediately said: "Okay, I will show you my skills tonight and let you see what I am capable of. Don't forget to take your..."

Xu Deyong said disdainfully: "Are you such a stingy person?"

He Yuzhu was silent, you are not even giving me a piece of candy!
After the exercise, Xu Deyong opened the blind box as usual. Two days ago, he opened an iron-shell thermos and 8 bars of lighthouse soap. I don’t know today...

"Oh!"

A bag fell.

Xu Deyong's eyes lit up, and he saw how pitiful he was. In addition to the ten kilograms of Fuqiang noodles at the beginning, he finally gave out food again, which was fifty kilograms of machine rice.

Now he has some small money, so he must save this rice carefully, it can save his life in the future!

He was about to go back after exercising, when the uncle came out and called him:
"Deyong."

Xu Deyong said with a smile: "Hey, Sir, what are your orders?"

Yi Zhonghai said: "Nothing else. Didn't you ask me to do something before? It's been done a long time ago. I've always left it here when you went out and not at home. Now I'll give it to you."

As he spoke, he handed him the small gear and small bearing of the clock.

"Hi!" Xu Deyong clapped his hands and said, "I almost forgot if you didn't tell me, so thank you."

"It's a small matter, you're welcome." Yi Zhonghai waved his hand.

Xu Deyong took it and looked at it and said: "If you don't say that the first uncle is very skilled, the repaired one is as good as new. The second uncle is not at your level."

Yi Zhonghai laughed and said: "You can't say that, you can't say that, you..."

"Humph!"

At this time, Liu Haizhong came out with a urinal, glanced at the two of them and snorted heavily.

Yi Zhonghai: "..."

Can't this old Liu wait for me to finish my words before saying "hum"?I want to say, "Your second uncle's skills are not bad either."

Seeing this, Xu Deyong said with an innocent face: "Hey, I just said this, the second uncle won't have any objection to us, right?"

Yi Zhonghai could only say: "It's okay, Lao Liu is not that stingy."

Xu Deyong said: "Well, He Yuzhu said he would cook some vegetables and have a drink tonight. Master, do you want to come with us?"

Yi Zhonghai was stunned for a moment and said: "I will not participate. You young people can drink."

Xu Deyong didn't try to persuade him any more and returned home in a good mood.

Yi Zhonghai, who was left there, couldn't help but wonder: "Aren't these two people indifferent to each other? Why are they drinking together?"

"One is a gangster who is not stingy, and the other is a gangster who is even more generous than a gangster. It is not a good sign for these two people to come together..."
