Siheyuan: The Final Winner

  Chapter 120 Yi Zhonghai Hook

   It's been a busy morning.

  The room is finally furnished.

   There are guests at home at noon.

  Yi Zhonghai and his wife, Xu Damao and his wife, He Yuzhu's brother and sister, and a deaf old lady.

   Vegetables are the old three, potatoes, radishes, cabbage, plus an egg soup, the staple food is white flour steamed buns.

   He didn't come here empty-handed, Yi Zhonghai brought a catty of vermicelli and a bottle of Erguotou liquor.

  Xu Damao took two catties of peanuts and a bottle of Wuliangye, probably urged by Lou Xiaoe.

  He Yuzhu went to buy a roast duck, plus a bottle of Erguotou Baijiu, it was considered a hemorrhage.

   But the meat ticket was given by Jiang Pingan, and He Yuzhu was responsible for paying.

  The deaf old lady also carried two catties of flour.

  Jiang Pingan didn't want it, she still wanted to give it, but in the end she had to accept it.

  This old lady is not short of food.

  She still has extra food stamps to sell. Jiang Ping'an has seen this a few times.

   You must know that food stamps on the black market are not cheap now.

   It's already as high as five yuan a catty, and most people can't afford it.

  So her behavior is typical speculation.

   Even worse than this!

  Because she is a household with five guarantees, the state is supporting her.

  She is eating the food of the country, but doing illegal things.

  He Yuzhu is cooking at noon, he is the cook, since he is here, he cannot be idle.

  Xu Damao looked around enviously.

  White walls, flat and smooth floor, complete set of furniture, looks very comfortable.

   Among them, the most enviable thing is the furniture.

  Although the shape is simple, it is this refreshing energy that makes it more charming.

  Jiang Ping'an smiled and said: "Xu Damao, I have advised you, don't be reluctant to part with money, it's useless for you to be envious now."

  Xu Damao laughed dryly, he was suffering.

  The family property is all in the hands of Lou Xiaoe, and he can't speak.

  If you want to repair a house, you can go to your parents to ask for it, and the money at home must be saved to raise children in the future.

   But Xu Damao couldn't say anything about it.

  He is a shameless person, and it would be embarrassing to speak out.

   "Cough, I'm not envious at all." Xu Damao insisted.

   "You have bought so much furniture, and when you clean it, you will cry."

  He Yushui, who was dusting the furniture next to him, heard the words and said:

   "It's okay, every time I come back from vacation, I help Brother Pingan clean up."

   "I usually ask Xie Di, she will come to clean up."

  Jiang Ping'an raised his eyebrows, smiled at Xu Damao, and said triumphantly:

   "Did you hear me? I don't cry when someone cleans me up."

  At this time, I heard the deaf old lady sitting on the recliner, smiling and saying:

   "Ping An, how much is this chair for you? It's really comfortable to sit on!"

   "I didn't ask about the price, so I just picked what was available and packed it for more than a hundred dollars." Jiang Ping'an replied.

  The deaf old lady discussed: "Can you give me a break? I don't even want to get up when I sit on it."

   "That won't work, I just bought two, and I will sit with my wife in the future." Jiang Ping'an refused.

   Just kidding around the world, how could he even distribute the furniture he got from favors to others.

  The deaf old lady took the next best thing:

   "Then I'll pay for it, so you can buy one for me, right?"

   "Do you always have a ticket?" Jiang Ping'an asked with a smile.

  The deaf old lady was stunned for a moment, then sighed and said, "No, where can I get tickets!"

   "Let the uncle figure out a way! Every year, furniture tickets are issued in the factory." Jiang Pingan turned to Yi Zhonghai and said.

  Yi Zhonghai pondered for a moment, frowned and said:

   "There are tickets, but there are so many monks and so little meat!"

  Especially now that he has not advanced for many years, he is too embarrassed to bother the factory leaders with a shy face.

  Jiang Ping'an said: "First ask around, or you can go to a second-hand store to see if there is any."

   "Forget it." Yi Zhonghai nodded, turned around and said to the deaf old lady:

   "Old lady, I took the time to search around, don't blame me if I can't find you!"

   While talking, He Yuzhu called for dinner in the kitchen.

   He Yushui and Lou Xiaoe, who were wiping the furniture, quickly put down the rags and went over to serve the dishes.

  On the first day of today, the Eight Immortals table was used, and there were exactly eight people.

  When the food was served, Jiang Pingan waited for He Yuzhu to come in, and asked with a smile:

   "Isn't there peanuts? Why didn't you fry a plate?"

   As soon as the words fell, He Yushui came in with a plate of peanuts, and said with a smile:

   "Here we go, fried peanuts, you drinkers love this."

   Then, she took advantage of the situation and sat in the same position as Jiang Ping'an.

  He Yuzhu hesitated for a moment, seeing that only the deaf old lady had a seat, so he walked over.

  The deaf old lady is old and takes the seat.

  He Yuzhu went up and down, hesitated, and discussed with Yi Zhonghai:

   "Master, sit here, I'm afraid I'll lose my life if I sit here."

  Xu Damao poured wine for everyone and said with a smile:

   "Silly Zhu, you are not afraid of the sky, you are not afraid of the earth, there are times when you are afraid?"

  He Yuzhu glared at him, Yi Zhonghai got up and said:

   "Okay, it doesn't matter what the occasion is, I'll change it with you."

   After everyone sits down and begins to eat, some pleasantries are also necessary.

   After enjoying the meal, the deaf old lady sighed:

   "This dish still needs to be fried with lard to taste, so what's the use of sanitary oil!"

  The first mother smiled and said: "It was hard work before Ping'an, but it won't work if there is less oil and water."

   "Today, Shazhu is broke. I bought a roast duck. Don't be too polite." Jiang Pingan said with a smile.

  He Yuzhu smiled and said: "Just take it as my thanks for inviting someone to help me clean the room!"

  Xu Damao choked: "Silly Zhu, from this incident, we can see how unpopular you are."

   "Renjiang is moving safely, and the people in the yard are scrambling to help, what about you? People hate idleness!"

   "Okay, I'm moving today for the sake of good luck, so stop talking!" Jiang Ping'an said seriously.

  Yi Zhonghai echoed: "Eating, eating vegetables, steamed buns and roast duck can't stop your mouths?"

  Xu Damao and He Yuzhu immediately shut up, and immediately became quiet.

   Eat and drink enough.

  Da Ma, Lou Xiaoe, and He Yushui cleaned up the dishes.

  Jiang Ping'an and others took benches to sit in the yard to smoke and bask in the sun.

  The deaf old lady was not in a hurry to go back to the backyard, she was sitting on the deck chair, not giving up yet.

  After Jiang Pingan put the bench away, he gave Yi Zhonghai a look.

  The two of them left the yard and came under the big tree across the road.

   "What's the matter with Ping An?" Yi Zhonghai asked in a daze.

  Jiang Pingan nodded lightly, looked around, and whispered:

   "Grandpa, what I told you last time has a shadow!"

   "What did you tell me?"

  Yi Zhonghai was a little puzzled, thought for a while, and suddenly became excited.

   "You mean the medicine..."

  Jiang Pingan laughed, nodded and said:

   "Not bad! I found out that the effect of the medicine is better than expected!"

   "I heard that a single pill can last for at least a week."

   "A good physique can even last for half a month! That's..."

   "What is it?" Yi Zhonghai was very excited and suddenly became nervous.

  Jiang Pingan pondered: "It's just a bit expensive, and most people can't afford it."

   "Well, it's definitely expensive. If the medicine is really that powerful, it's normal for it to be more expensive."

  Yi Zhonghai nodded, curiously asked: "Have you found out, how much does it cost to buy one?"

  Jiang Pingan stretched out two fingers.

   "Twenty? It's not expensive!" Yi Zhonghai heaved a sigh of relief.

   Before he finished speaking, Jiang Ping'an shook his head.

  Yi Zhonghai was stunned for a moment, and exclaimed, "Two hundred?"

  Seeing Jiang Ping'an nodded, he took a few deep breaths and said:

   "Sure enough, it's very expensive. That medicine must be very precious and rare, otherwise it wouldn't be so expensive!"

   After thinking about it, he gritted his teeth and said, "Forget it, expensive is expensive!"

   "Ping An, no matter what, you will buy one for your uncle!"
