Era: Craftsmen in the Siheyuan

Chapter 90
After Liu Haizhong left, He Yuzhu blinked his eyes and said, "Deyong, did you discover something?"

Look, who said Shazhu is stupid? This guy has a clear mind!

Some people always like to procrastinate, talk sarcastically, ask questions with answers, and pretend to be confused while pretending to understand.

Xu Deyong glanced at him sideways and said, "Guess!"

After that, he went back to the house.

He Yuzhu's mouth flew up and down, and he spoke silently at Xu Deyong's back. When Xu Deyong entered the room, he whispered in a low voice: "I guess your grandma has a leg!"

……

This weekend, as a temporary worker, grandma has nothing urgent to do to rest.

After eating, Xu Deyong packed a small bag of snacks.

Those he bought had already been eaten, leaving only some that he brought from Shanghai. Thanks to him often urging his grandma to eat them, and also eating them himself, he ate almost everything except pear candy.

Putting the snacks into his pocket, Xu Deyong went out and glanced at the two Liu Guangtian brothers who were playing at the door.

After Xu Deyong left, the two brothers' eyes concealed anxiety, excitement...all kinds of complicated emotions.

Not only because of the delicious food, but also because of their first secret resistance, they didn't sleep well for most of last night.

After a while, the two followed him.

Arriving at the entrance of a less crowded alley, Xu Deyong stopped and took out a Pegasus cigarette.

"laugh……."

He struck a match and lit it, flicked it out, flicked the match to the ground, and took a puff.

He's not a big smoker, but he doesn't mind having one now and then.

Soon, Liu Guangtian and his two boys walked over quickly.

Xu Deyong handed the snacks to them and said: "Eat leisurely, don't blame me if your dad finds out."

"I know, Brother Deyong." Liu Guangfu licked his lips and nodded.

Xu Deyong took out another folded piece of paper and said, "When your dad is not at home later, put this note in your dad's pocket at work, preferably at night or tomorrow morning."

Liu Guangtian hesitated and said: "Brother Deyong, what if... what if we are discovered?"

Xu Deyong said calmly: "It's okay. I won't let it go until there is a good opportunity. I have other ways."

The two brothers looked at each other, wondering what Xu Deyong's intention was.

Liu Guangfu gritted his teeth and accepted, "Okay."

Liu Guangtian saw Xu Deyong smoking a cigarette and couldn't help but said: "Brother Deyong, can you give me a few puffs to taste it?"

"piss off."

After throwing down these three words, Xu Deyong pedaled away on three wheels.

Reporting this matter anonymously did not cause any serious consequences. Even if he came to argue with him, the result might not be satisfactory.

If a fight breaks out, you might get a bang in your bangs, and you'll get slapped with words like, "Why are you so petty?"

Most people will be very tolerant of "malice" until it has no consequences.

But if it really causes consequences, who is willing to pay for it?
Like those off-leash dogs...!
In the case of Xu Deyong, instead of taking the initiative to engage in hand-to-hand combat, it is better to passively let him come to the door.

The so-called good warrior is one who subdues others without fighting!
……

In the morning, I made money by soliciting customers, but by noon, the sky became increasingly cloudy and thick, with wind and snow brewing. The light snow in the previous two days seemed to be just an appetizer.

Xu Deyong came to Beihai Park, and the gloomy and cold weather could not stop people's enthusiasm for skating.

Xu Deyong took the materials Huang Dafu handed him to make wooden skates, looked at the wood and raised his eyebrows and said: "Okay, Comrade Dafu, this is a big investment, even the redwood is used."

Huang Dafu smiled a little sheepishly and said, "No, no, this bit of wood is not worth much."

Xu Deyong thought about it, and yes, the market determines the value. Now this thing is more expensive than ordinary hardwood, and there are many kinds of mahogany, but he can't tell them apart anyway.

Besides, even "Hai Huang" might be burned as firewood now!

"I have collected the things. If it snows, I will deliver them over at noon the day after tomorrow." Xu Deyong said casually.

Huang Dafu nodded. Seeing that Xu Deyong had no intention of skating, he rubbed his hands and said with a shy face: "Brother Deyong, have you brought your skates? If you don't want to skate, can you lend them to me to play with? Don't worry, you won't be in vain." , I pay rent.”

Xu Deyong smiled, got out of the car, took out the skates and handed them to him, saying, "The rent is waived. Just sharpen the skates after skating."

"Okay, thank you very much, Brother Deyong. I promise to return the jade to Zhao intact." Huang Dafu said with a grin, and then happily put it on and went skating.

Gangzi had already regarded this as his permanent residence, and after Xu Deyong finished talking, he came over to say hello.

Xu Deyong handed him a cigarette and said: "The snow is going to fall, and my legs and feet are inconvenient. Let's go to the police station to change the name after noon the day after tomorrow."

Gangzi took the flue with both hands and said, "Master Yong is benevolent and righteous, I will definitely convey it to you."

Xu Deyong nodded and said: "One more thing, the second uncle in our courtyard, Liu Haizhong, Zhang Sanhou and Si should have met..."

As he spoke, he described the appearance of Liu Haizhong.

Then he took out a small piece of paper and said: "Find someone with quick hands and feet. On his way to get off work tomorrow, stuff it into his pocket without leaving any trace."

Gangzi's eyes flashed and he said: "Master Yong, did this guy offend you? Do you want me to put a sack on him and teach him a lesson? Don't worry, he will definitely not know who did it afterwards."

"No need." Xu Deyong said with a smile: "After all, he is the second uncle of the same hospital. It is not good to beat too many people. Just do as I say. I will let you know if you want to continue."

"Okay, Master Yong, I guarantee that this little thing will be handled beautifully for you." Gangzi said.

"Yes." Xu Deyong nodded, took out a box of Pegasus cigarettes from his pocket and threw it to him and said, "For the person in charge."

After saying that, without waiting for Gangzi to refuse, he left on a tricycle.

Gangzi patted the cigarette in his hand, quickly thought of a candidate, and strode away.

……

Xu Deyong took the things and went home directly. He didn't plan to leave the car in the afternoon. The weather was bad, so it was good to make skates by the stove!
We still eat cabbage for lunch.

Stir-fried cabbage, stewed cabbage, vinegared cabbage, etc. come in various varieties. Anyway, this is indispensable every day in winter.

At this time, the cooperative in the suburbs of Sijiucheng already had a greenhouse, but the output was limited. The main dish for ordinary people in winter was cabbage.

Every year, the residents’ winter cabbage storage is no less than a “big battle”.

After eating, I made tea and took two sweet potatoes and roasted them slowly on the stove.

Xu Deyong found the tools and started making skates.

"Chi chi chi..."

Wood shavings fell to the ground layer by layer.

Xu Nanshi took a look in the cubicle with her headphones on, her smiling eyes narrowed into a thin line, and she continued to listen while listening.

Hey, all I need is a granddaughter-in-law and a few great-grandchildren.

……

After more than 20 minutes, the aroma of roasted sweet potatoes came from the stove.

At this time, He Yuyu's voice came from outside the door: "Brother Deyong, are you at home?"

Xu Deyong said without raising his head: "At home, come in and talk about anything."

Soon the door was pushed open, and He Yuyu came in and greeted the two of them, then said to the outside: "Come in, Brother De Yong's stove has a chimney to keep warm."

Xu Nanshi said with a smile: "I'm Yu Yu's classmate. It's okay. Come in and warm yourself."

After hearing what the master said, the two little girls followed He Yuyu into the house.

Xu Deyong raised his head and said, "Just find a bench to sit on."

He Yuyu moved stools for Yu Haitang and Zhang Shuqin and sat near the stove.

The two little girls were a little reserved.

He Yuyu rolled his eyes and said with a smile, "Brother Deyong, what are you doing?"

"Making wooden shoes."

"Would you like to wear wooden shoes?" He Yuyu asked curiously.

Xu Deyong said: "Put the skates on the soles of your shoes and you'll get skates!"

He Yuyu's eyes lit up when he heard this and said, "Brother Deyong, are you making skates?"

Yu Haitang and Zhang Shuqin also showed interest.

Xu Deyong nodded and said: "Someone asked me to order it." He Yuyu asked tentatively: "Would it cost a lot of money?"

Xu Deyong raised his head and glanced at her, half-smiling but not smiling: "If you want to make a pair, your brother must be anxious. I don't charge six yuan for the materials for making these skates."

"Ah!" He Yuyu couldn't help but stick out his tongue and said: "It's so expensive!"

Xu Deyong said: "It only costs three and eight yuan to hire someone to make ice skates. My manual fee and errand fee only cost two yuan and two, which is not expensive."

"Forget it, don't even think about it. You came in and just talked to me and didn't even introduce your friends!"

He Yuyu said quickly: "This is my classmates Yu Haitang and Zhang Shuqin."

Then he said to the two of them: "You should also call me Brother Deyong and Grandma Nan like me."

"Brother Deyong, Grandma Nan." The two little girls followed.

Xu Nanshi smiled and responded.

Xu Deyong narrowed his eyes and nodded: "Hello."

Yu Haitang, Yu Li's younger sister, later became an announcer at a steel rolling mill. During WG, she had a falling out with her partner and wandered around two men, He Yuzhu and Xu Damao.

They later found a partner, got married, and then divorced. He Yuzhu and Qin Huairu were not married at that time, and it seemed that He Yuzhu was plotting against him again. Qin Huairu, this bitch, was still jealous...!
Zhang Shuqin, the person He Yuyu wanted to introduce to He Yuzhu, was just mentioned because He Yuzhu disliked her Huya and failed.

In Xu Deyong's eyes, Yu Haitang is not that beautiful, and this Shuqin is not that ugly, but the two tiger teeth do affect the appearance.

"Tell me, what do you want from me?" Xu Deyong said.

He Yuyu smiled and said a little embarrassedly, "Um...Brother Deyong, can you make two more pairs of clay skates...?"

Xu Deyong deliberately hesitated for a moment and said: "It's just this time, won't you do it next time?"

He Yuyu said quickly: "They are my good friends. I will never agree to others in the future."

"Well, something to make clay skates?" Xu Deyong asked.

"Oh oh oh, it's outside, I'll get it." He Yu said.

Yu Haitang stood up first and said, "I'll get it."

After saying that, he quickly went out and brought the materials in. He and Zhang Shuqin each took out a handful of raw chestnuts from their pockets and said, "Brother Deyong, these chestnuts are our reward. Don't dislike it."

Okay, he is indeed a future announcer, he has such a smooth mouth.

Xu Deyong nodded and said: "Put it on the stove to bake. The two roasted sweet potatoes are already cooked. You can take them and eat them. Wait for the rain to come to you tomorrow morning."

In fact, the smell of roasted sweet potatoes already made the three little girls salivate.

Yu Haitang and Zhang Shuqin couldn't help but look at He Yuyu.

He Yuyu declined: "No, you and Grandma Nan haven't eaten yet."

Xu Nanshi said with a smile: "Just keep the stove and let's bake it. You can go out and play with it. Two little girls are uncomfortable sitting there."

He Yuyu said: "Thank you, Grandma Nan, and Brother Deyong."

After that, he took some hot roasted sweet potatoes, switched left and right, and said goodbye to the two of them.

"Rainwater, where did the roasted sweet potatoes come from?"

He Yuzhu's voice came from outside.

He Yuyu said: "Brother Yong gave it to me. Their stove cooks it really well."

"Give me one." He Yuzhu said.

"No, we'll share it between the three of us."

"Hey, it seems I can't have this sister anymore..."

He Yuyu didn't care about him and went to her room with Yu Haitang and Zhang Shuqin to whisper.

After a while, He Yuzhu knocked on the door with a shy face and said, "Ms. Nan, Deyong, put some sweet potatoes on your stove to roast."

"Humph, let's bake it." Xu Nanshi was still a little bit reluctant to see He Yuzhu.

He Yuzhu didn't care. He put the sweet potato on the stove and said, "Hey, don't say it, this one with a tube is just for warmth."

"Deyong, what are you doing here without getting out of the car?"

"Wooden skates."

"It's just clay skates. How much money can you make doing this!"

"Two dollars and two."

He Yuzhu: "..."

"Deyong, do you think you can teach me...?"

Xu Deyong said with a smile: "If you want to become a craftsman, hard work is very important, so you should rest today and tomorrow."

He Yuzhu: "..."

……

He Yuzhu took out a few roasted chestnuts and muttered: "No wonder this guy is buying this and that. Relationships are an extra way to make money. My dear, this guy knows a lot of things..."

……

Xu Deyong spent an afternoon making a pair of wooden shoes and two pairs of clay skates.

The mahogany wooden shoes look pretty good when they are made, and Huang Dafu is sure to make people smile.

The snow brewed all day and night, and finally began to fall in the morning the next day.

Xu Deyong's training is unimpeded by wind and snow, and only "wind and snow" can stop it...!
After finishing the matter, he stared speechlessly at the thick hatchet with a hook on the tip that was drawn out of the blind box space.

Brother, you are instigating!

I already have a hunting knife, okay? Wouldn’t it be delicious if you gave me some food?
After dinner, Xu Deyong sent his grandma to the neighborhood committee.

Xu Nanshi said: "Xiaoyong, it looks like the snow won't stop for a while, so you can rest at home for a day."

"I know, grandma." Xu Deyong waved his hand.

……

Liu Haizhong was working in the workshop. When he finished his work near noon, he took out a crumpled cigarette case from his pocket and prepared to smoke a cigarette.

A small note fell out.

He picked it up with a hint of doubt, opened it and took a look. His eyes suddenly opened and he quickly closed the note.

There was no signature on the note, saying that he maliciously reported on meritorious people, had low ideological awareness, was jealous of talents, etc., etc., and planned to put up notices in the steel factory to expose him.

Liu Haizhong thought about the consequences, and his heart skipped a beat. He was determined to work hard to become a leader. If this notice was posted in the steel factory, his path to promotion would be sealed.

It must be Xu Deyong, it must be Xu Deyong, this kid is simply bad!

He struck a match and burned the note, and then searched his pockets. He was relieved when there was no other note.

I took a puff of cigarette in my bangs and felt a little strange. What should I do?I can't just bow to a young boy like this, can I?
Until after get off work, he was thinking about how to deal with Xu Deyong, and he didn't pay attention to the people he passed by on the street.

When he reached the alley entrance, he casually put it in his pocket and his body froze in place.

Slowly walked to the corner of the street, took out another note from his pocket, opened it and read it, but it still contained the same words.

But there is an extra line at the end: "I have been watching you."

Liu Hai suddenly felt like he had seen a ghost. He had clearly dug into his pocket before, so why did this note appear in his pocket?

Bangs is a little scared!

With this subtle method, if he was still a little suspicious of the two boys at home at the beginning, what about now?
No, we must talk to Xu Deyong privately...

……

At the same time, in the sky full of snowflakes, the lonely Xu Huizhen and Bai Xiao knelt in front of Mr. He's grave to burn the paper.

After kowtowing, it was over, she stood up and walked firmly towards home.

The dead are gone, the living are like this, her daughter should be hungry...
