Siheyuan: Fishing for All Things

"No, that's how you invite people to drink?"

Sha Zhu looked at the pork on the chopping board, his head full of black lines.

"Who are you?" Lin Shaowen said seriously.

"Huh?"

Sha Zhu was a little stunned for a moment, and he stammered for a long time, "I am... He Yuzhu."

"You are the authentic descendant of Tan's cuisine, the chef of the steel mill, Master He." Lin Shaowen said with great sorrow, "I sincerely invite you to dinner, but looking at the entire Nanluoguxiang, who can cook better than you?"

"That's right." Sha Zhu said happily.

"So, I have prepared everything, waiting for you to cook." Lin Shaowen sighed.

"That makes sense, that makes sense, college students are still educated."

Sha Zhu understood everything, and even gave Lin Shaowen a thumbs up.

"But I don't know how to cook, so the side dishes may not be well-prepared. Master He, please take a look..."

"Hey, don't worry about these, just wait for the meal." He Yuzhu waved his hand generously.

"Okay, then I'll wait to appreciate Master He's cooking skills."

Lin Shaowen said and went back to his room to lie down. He wanted to enjoy the cool in the yard.

But the whole house had no furniture except a bed that was about to fall apart.

Shazhu is only 23 or 24 years old now, and he doesn't have so many thoughts. After being praised by Lin Shaowen for a few words. The whole person was like chicken blood. He immediately ran home to get his own stuff and prepared to do a big job.

"Shazhu, where are you going?" Yan Bugui asked curiously.

"Lin Shaowen invited me to drink, so I prepared something." Shazhu said with a smile.

"No, Lin Shaowen invited you to drink, and you have to prepare something yourself?" Yan Bugui was stunned. What kind of routine is this?

"Looking at the whole Nanluoguxiang, whose dishes are better than mine?" Sha Zhu said proudly, "We are all scholars. Look how sensible Lin Shaowen is. Third uncle, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but you really can't compare to Lin Shaowen in judging people."

After saying that, he left, leaving Yan Bugui in a mess in the wind.

Strange, does this Sha Zhu have a bad memory?

After being beaten twice yesterday, he actually rushed to cook for Lin Shaowen today?

West wing.

Along with the sound of pots and pans, a fragrance filled the whole courtyard.

"Who is it? Eating meat in such a festive occasion?" Liu Haizhong scolded.

"That's right, don't celebrate this day?" Second Aunt also echoed.

Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu sniffed greedily. They tried to recall the last time they ate meat, but they couldn't remember it no matter how hard they tried.

Yi Zhonghai in the middle courtyard also smelled the meat and couldn't help biting his cheeks.

Although he was an eighth-level worker with a monthly salary of 99 yuan, he really didn't dare to eat meat freely.

All the money was saved for retirement.

"Who is eating meat?" Jia Zhang jumped up instantly.

"It came from the backyard." Qin Huairu whispered.

"Damn Shazhu, you dare to eat meat, you deserve to be a bachelor for life."

Jia Zhang cursed, but drooled from her mouth from time to time.

"Dad, I want to eat meat." Banggeng shouted.

"Get out."

Jia Dongxu roared, scaring Banggeng to cry.

"Why are you yelling at the child?"

Jia Zhang hugged Banggeng in his arms and comforted him, "Banggeng, don't cry, ask your mother to buy meat tomorrow and we will make dumplings."

"Mom, I don't have money." Qin Huairu whispered.

"You don't have money? Where did you spend the money?" Jia Zhang glared.

"You only give me 10 yuan a month, and our family of four eats... where is the money left?" Qin Huairu said aggrievedly.

Jia Dongxu is a first-class worker, with a monthly salary of 27.5 yuan.

He only gives her 10 yuan a month for living expenses, and the rest is saved by Jia Zhangshi.

"You dare to talk back?"

Jia Zhangshi stretched out her hand and pinched Qin Huairu, scolding, "If my family didn't want you, you would still be digging in the countryside. You are now strong..."

"Mom, I don't have it." Qin Huairu shouted with red eyes.

"Okay, stop arguing."

Jia Dongxu roared, threw the chopsticks and lay on the bed.

Compared with Lin Shaowen, he hated Sha Zhu more. Why eat meat for no reason? It made his family restless.

West wing.

Lin Shaowen leaned against the door frame with his arms around his chest, watching Sha Zhu cooking hard, and praised him as if he didn't want money.

"Master He, it's you who has to do it."

"This dish is as good as the one cooked by the imperial chef."

"Master He, it's a waste of your talent to go to the canteen."

...

Sha Zhu also lost himself in the praises, and he worked so hard.

Less than half an hour.

Three dishes and a soup are ready, which can be said to be delicious.

The two pounds of pork that Lin Shaowen took out were not wasted at all, and Sha Zhu himselfA lot of cabbage and seasonings were also pasted on.

"How is it? Brother, your cooking is good, right?" Sha Zhu wiped his hands, his face full of pride.

"You are this."

After Lin Shaowen gave a thumbs up, he took out two teacups and filled them with wine.

"Brother..."

A timid voice sounded in Lin Shaowen's yard.

Lin Shaowen looked sideways and saw a little girl standing there with a schoolbag.

She was wearing a half-new gray top and black pants that were a little faded. It seemed that this dress was worn by Sha Zhu.

"Brother, this is my sister He Yushui." Sha Zhu hurriedly introduced.

"Brother, who is this?" He Yushui pulled Sha Zhu's sleeve.

"Hello, my name is Lin Shaowen, and I am a colleague of your brother."

Lin Shaowen waved to He Yushui and motioned her to come in.

If there is a normal person in this courtyard, He Yushui is one of them. She is really sober.

Her father ran away with a widow, and her brother was also entangled by the widow. So she was able to move to school and never come back. She married herself immediately after graduation and never came back again.

"Brother Lin, are you also a cook?" He Yushui asked curiously.

"Yes, I am also a cook."

Lin Shaowen picked up a cut coconut from the ground and it appeared in his hand.

"Wow, this is a coconut." Sha Zhu was surprised.

He had only seen this thing once, when he followed his father to help a wealthy family and saw others drinking it.

"Good insight."

Lin Shaowen stuffed the coconut into He Yushui's hand, "Adults drink wine, children drink beverages."

"Thank you, Brother Lin."

He Yushui smiled sweetly.

"Sister, give me a sip." Sha Zhu rubbed his hands and said.

He Yushui was reluctant, but still handed the coconut over.

Sha Zhu was not polite and took a few sips from the straw.

There wasn't much coconut in the first place, so it couldn't withstand his drinking. When it returned to He Yushui's hand, the coconut couldn't even pour out any water.

He Yushui's eyes were red, and she lowered her head and shed tears.

"Okay, I'll give you another one."

Lin Shaowen took out another coconut from somewhere and stuffed it into her hand, "Don't give it to your brother this time."

"Thank you, Brother Lin."

He Yushui immediately burst into laughter.

Lin Shaowen looked at her smile and couldn't help but curl his lips.

After all, she was still a 15 or 16-year-old child, born in this era of material scarcity, it was really fate.

"Come on, brother, let's go."

Sha Zhu immediately picked up the wine glass.

"Let's go."

Lin Shaowen clinked his glass with him and took a sip of the wine.

After all, it was still Erguotou, nothing else, strong.
