Siheyuan: The Final Winner

Chapter 73: Jia Zhang's come back in embarrassment

  Chapter 73 Jia Zhang’s return in embarrassment (chapter 310 on the shelves)

evening.

  Jiang Pingan picked up a few potatoes from the space, peeled and shredded them.

   Went to the cellar to get another Chinese cabbage, washed it, and tore the cabbage and leaves into small pieces.

   It is strange to say that if the cabbage is cut, the taste will always be wrong, and it must be torn into pieces to taste.

  Jiang Pingan plans to eat hot and sour shredded potatoes and fried cabbage at night, and the staple food is naturally white flour steamed buns.

   There are still a lot of steamed buns in the space, so there is no need to steam them, just stir-fry vegetables now.

  The students in the yard came back from school, bustling with excitement, instantly gaining popularity.

  Even if these little guys don’t have enough to eat, they still seem to be full of energy, laughing and playing, tireless.

   A large lump of lard was put into the pot and melted at high temperature, moist and clear, exuding an attractive crispy fragrance.

  The aroma of oil is overflowing, mellow and rich, and it makes a sizzling sound in the hot pot, which makes people salivate.

   "Pricked..."

  Put the peppercorns into the pot and stir-fry until fragrant.

  Fry it well and take it out, then add green onion, ginger, minced garlic, chili slices, etc.

  The thick lard aroma, mixed with the spicy aroma of various accessories, spilled out from the room and spread to the courtyard.

  Neighbors froze, sniffing and sucking.

   "It smells so good!"

   "This fragrance is absolutely amazing!"

   "It smells so good, and only by smelling this fragrance can I feel that I am still alive!"

  Many children came to smell the fragrance, and peeked at Jiang Ping'an's house, drooling.

   "Pricked..."

  Jiang Ping'an turned around and smiled at them, then poured the potatoes into the pot and stir-fried them.

   Soon, sour vinegar, shredded red pepper, chopped green onion, appropriate amount of salt and monosodium glutamate were added, and the aroma was tangy.

   "Finally I can eat MSG produced in the space!" Jiang Ping'an thought to himself.

  There are three major MSG brands on the market:

  Red Rose brand from Tianjin MSG Factory, Gudeng brand from Taiyuan MSG Factory, and Hongmei Brand from Shenyang MSG Factory.

  However, the current production method of monosodium glutamate has been using the traditional protein acid hydrolysis method.

  This method has low yield, poor operating environment, high labor intensity, serious pollution, and slow production speed.

  The national annual output is only a few hundred tons.

  In this era when eating is a problem.

  There are very few non-staple food condiments that are supplied and sold by the government, and there is basically no MSG in the supply and marketing cooperatives.

  Even a steel rolling mill with 10,000 people rarely gets MSG tickets, which is very rare.

  Jiang Ping'an also tried to find some monosodium glutamate to enhance the freshness and appetizer, but he searched many ways, but he couldn't get any.

   Now it’s all right, you can also produce MSG in your own space.

  In the future, add a little to the cooking soup, it tastes great!

   After a while, a plate of oily, crisp and refreshing hot and sour potato shreds came out of the pan.

   Not long after, a plate of stir-fried cabbage with emerald green color and tender and crisp taste was ready.

  Jiang Pingan came back to his senses and found that the children at the door were still watching eagerly!

   "What are you looking at, and then I will go to your house for dinner!" Jiang Ping'an widened his eyes and shouted.

  The children dispersed immediately, and a few boys turned around and stuck out their tongues at Jiang Pingan, making funny faces.

   "Haha, you little bastards, wait for me!" Jiang Pingan laughed.

  Speaking of which, the children in the courtyard love to be close to Jiang Ping'an.

  Because he loves bragging, no, telling stories.

  As a buyer, especially if you want to go to the countryside to purchase, storytelling is also an essential skill.

  For those farmers who stay at home.

  Buyers have traveled farther than those craftsmen and craftsmen, and they have endless stories to tell.

  On the drying ground, or in the field, or under the shade of a tree, or in a shady alley.

  People like to listen to the buyers tell about the outside world, and they themselves will tell some stories about their parents.

  During the communication, the buyers will inquire about which households have something to sell, and the farmers will increase their knowledge.

   Chasing away the children, Jiang Ping'an put the two dishes on the high stool and put them away.

  Find another big bowl, take out six steaming steamed buns from the space and put them on.

   Take a bite of vegetables, a mouthful of steamed buns, chew and swallow slowly.

   Just after taking a few bites, there were footsteps.

  Jiang Ping'an's ears trembled slightly, and he thought to himself:

   "Is Yan Jiedi here? What is she doing here now?"

   These days, every household is short of food.

  Under normal circumstances, everyone has a tacit understanding during the meal time, and very few people drop by.

  Yan Jiedi arrived at the door, stuck out his head to look in, blinked his eyes, and said weakly: "Brother Pingan!"

   "Uh, Xie Di, what's the matter?" Jiang Ping'an smiled.

  Yan Jiedi pursed her lips and asked in a low voice, "Brother Pingan, do you have any clothes to wash?"

  Jiang Pingan shook his head and asked with a smile, "Did you help clean this room?"

  There are clothes, but He Yushui has to leave them to wash, he dare not give the clothes to this girl.

   "Yes, I will come to clean it every other day, is Brother Pingan satisfied?"

  Yan Jiedi replied with a slight curl of her small mouth.

  Jiang Pingan nodded with a smile and said: "Haha, the cleaning is very clean, I am very satisfied!"

   "Come on! Come in, I'll give you something to eat!"

   "Hey!" Yan Jiedi's eyes lit up, she responded, and trotted in.

   Seeing a few steamed buns in the bowl and two plates of stir-fried vegetables with plenty of oil and water, she gulped down her saliva.

  Thought that Jiang Ping'an would invite her to dinner, who knew that Jiang Ping'an dug in his pocket and said with a smile, "Open your mouth!"

  Yan Jiedi froze for a moment, opened her small mouth lightly, and then Jiang Ping'an threw something the size of a pea into her mouth.

  She sipped it lightly, and the sweetness spread in her mouth. She couldn't help but squinted her eyes, and said with a smile, "It's so sweet!"

   "Haha, this is a reward for you!" Jiang Pingan said with a smile.

  Yan Jiedi smiled and said, "Thank you Brother Pingan, I will clean your room in the future."

   "Xie Di is really diligent, cleaning with heart, I will give you delicious food in the future." Jiang Pingan smiled and nodded.

   After thinking about it, he added: "Well, you will help me clean it every other day."

   "How about I give you a candy every time?"

  Yan Jiedi nodded fiercely, and said excitedly: "Yes, even if Brother Pingan doesn't give me anything, I am willing to clean."

   "That won't work, you have worked so hard to help me clean, I can't treat you badly." Jiang Ping'an said seriously.

  Yan Jiedi smiled happily, nodded and said: "Okay then, I will listen to Brother Pingan."

   "Okay, it's settled like this, you go back first, and I will clean it tomorrow." Jiang Pingan waved.

  Yan Jiedi hesitated, hummed lightly, and left reluctantly.

   After she left, Jiang Pingan continued to eat.

  It is much more comfortable to serve steamed buns with vegetables than dry steamed buns.

   After eating two dishes and six steamed buns, the whole person became lazy.

   "Hey, I lost money just now, so I should tell Xie Di that I need to wash the dishes for me!" Jiang Pingan said angrily.

  Dishwashing is the hardest thing in this winter.

  Especially when he was cooking, he put a lot of oil, and these two plates had to be scalded with hot water to clean them.

   "Wash it, wash it, and discuss it with Xie Di when I find a chance."

  Jiang Pingan hesitated for a moment, but got up and began to collect the dishes and clean the stove.

   "After all, it is proper to have a woman to take care of the house. How can gentlemen do such a thing?"

  —————

  Yanbu Guijia.

  Yan Bugui saw Yan Jiedi come back, curiously said:

   "What does Jiang Ping'an's family eat at night? It's oily and fragrant."

   "Two dishes, one shredded potato and one fried cabbage, plus white flour steamed buns." Yan Jiedi pursed his lips and replied.

  The third mother who was cooking interrupted: "There should be plenty of oil and water, right? The fragrance can be smelled from a long distance."

   "Well, it's so oily and fragrant, I'm salivating." Yan Jiedi pouted.

  Yan Bugui frowned and said, "You helped him clean the room, but he didn't let you eat?"

   "No, I ate a piece of candy instead." Yan Jiedi pursed her lips and smiled.

   Then he stuck out his tongue again and showed his parents the remaining candy the size of a sesame seed.

  Yan Bugui raised his eyebrows and said, "You ate the candy? Why didn't you keep it and bring it back?"

   "When the time comes, turn it into boiling water, and everyone in our family can have a taste!"

   "Brother Pingan just threw it in my mouth." Yan Jiedi pouted, and said a little dissatisfied:

   "Besides, I earned that sugar, why should I take it back and turn it into water?"

  Yan Bugui suddenly became angry, patted the table, stared and said:

   "Hey, you girl is living for nothing, now you eat me and live with me."

   "Even if it's the candy you earned, you should take it back and share it with your family!"

   "I won't! I earned it!" Yan Jiedi was also angry.

  Her eyes were red, she choked back a sentence, and ran to the house to lie down.

   "This girl!" Yan Bugui shook his head, his face full of disappointment.

  The third mother hesitated, and said, "What kind of candy is that? I didn't see it clearly just now. It's too small, right?"

   "I didn't see it clearly, I was overwhelmed by Xie Di." Yan Bugui thought for a while and replied.

   Then he raised his head, glanced across the window, and sighed:

   "If you want me to say, in our yard, the guy who lives the most comfortable life is Jiang Pingan."

  The third mother took a pot of boiled cabbage out of the pot, frowned and said:

   "He only eats oily food occasionally, right? How can life be the most comfortable?"

  Yan Bugui shook his head and said, "You don't understand, this kid has a lot of goofs!"

  The year before last, Jiang Pingan did Yi Zhonghai a big favor, and Yi Zhonghai promised to help Jiang Pingan from the year before last.

  At that time, Jiang Pingan was afraid of Yi Zhonghai's repentance, so he prepared a good meal and asked Liu Haizhong to witness with him.

  Before eating, talk about things.

  Jiang Pingan forced Liu Haizhong to swear an oath to sever his sons and grandchildren with him before letting Liu Haizhong sit at the table with him.

   To say that the table dishes are really good.

   Braised pork, pork trotters, braised pork ribs, carrot stewed beef, braised pork with salted vegetables, etc., many meat dishes.

   There are also several bottles of Erguotou on display, making people drool.

  Liu Haizhong and he couldn't stand the temptation of delicious food, so they made a vow not to leak the matter in a daze.

  Even after several years have passed, neither he nor Liu Haizhong dared to disclose the matter, for fear that the oath would be fulfilled.

  But because of this, he and Liu Haizhong also knew about Jiang Pingan's stinking problem of eating fine grains.

  That's why Yan Bugui said that Jiang Ping'an lived more comfortably in the courtyard than anyone else.

  The third mother said: "I don't understand, but if our family owes people hundreds of thousands of dollars, I will have trouble sleeping and eating!"

   "This means that Jiang Ping'an has a big heart. He looks for someone to borrow money. I really don't know if he can pay it back in the future!"

  Yan Bugui said: "Why aren't you up yet?"

   "Don't forget that Jiang Ping'an graduated from a technical secondary school. After becoming a full-time clerk at the seventh level, he will get a salary of 37 yuan and 5 yuan."

   "At that time, his salary was the same as that of Sha Zhu now."

   "These years have passed, no matter what he does, he can be promoted to a higher level, right?"

   "I remember that the salary of the sixth-level clerk is forty-three. With so much money, he can pay at least ten or twenty yuan a month."

   "Don't look at him borrowing a lot, at most three to five years, he will pay it off."

  The third mother suddenly said: "If you don't tell me, I really didn't pay attention."

   "No wonder the first and second uncles are willing to lend him money."

  Yan Bugui nodded and said: "Speaking of which, he still owes our family 18 yuan, and he will pay it back if he says it is a customs payment."

   "It's time to pay it back. I've borrowed it for two months." The third mom nodded.

  Yan Bugui pondered: "I hope he doesn't pay back the money so quickly."

   "How do you say that? Are you afraid that he won't pay it back?" The third mother frowned.

  Yan Bugui glared at her and said, "Women and Taoists just have shallow knowledge."

   "Although our family is in difficulty, eighteen yuan is not in a hurry."

   "If Jiang Ping'an owes us money and needs help from him in the future, wouldn't it be easier to talk to him?"

   "Can we ask him for help?" The third mother asked with a puzzled expression.

  Yan Bugui said: "Boss, when he graduates from middle school, can't we find him a decent job?"

   "Even the few children in the family can ask Jiang Ping'an to help them find jobs in the future!"

   "This kid, Lu Ziye, knows quite a lot of people."

   "Let him owe us favors and not suffer!"

   "The most important thing is that as long as you lend him money, he will politely send an egg every month."

   "Where can I find such a good thing?"

  The three mothers nodded and said:

   "Okay, anyway, you are the one who makes up the mind at home, so you can figure it out!"

   "Let's not talk about this now, I'll call some children over for dinner..."

  …

  The cold wind is biting.

  Jiang Pingan got into Lou Xiaoe's bed with a cold air all over his body.

   "Hiss...you are so cold, let me cover you quickly." Lou Xiaoe whispered.

  Jiang Pingan hugged Lou Xiaoe's soft body, and asked in a low voice, "You haven't slept all this time?"

   "Yeah, I can't sleep. When I'm free these days, I always think about you." Lou Xiaoe said softly.

  Jiang Pingan pondered for a while, and said, "Looking at the situation, you are in love with me."

   "Yes, I'm in love with you! You must be nice to me!" Lou Xiao'e admitted generously.

  Jiang Pingan laughed, squeezed her cheek, and said softly:

   "Okay, I'm warmed up, that's good for you!"

   "Hee hee, come quickly, I've been waiting for a long time!" Lou Xiaoe said with a smile.

   After the fact.

   After a while, Lou Xiaoe suddenly said: "I have been having this dream repeatedly for the past few days."

   "What dream?" Jiang Pingan asked casually, stroking her shoulder.

  Lou Xiaoe whispered: "I dreamed that a snake was entangled with me, and I couldn't get rid of it no matter how hard I tried."

   "Then another big bird flew up and pecked at my belly, trying to get in."

   "Tell me, is there any omen in this dream?"

  Jiang Pingan pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "Maybe!"

   "If this dream comes true, will you be pregnant with twins?"

   "Hee hee, if only I were really pregnant with twins!" Lou Xiaoe said excitedly.

   "If this is the case, I will not only give you the gold bars under the bed, but also ask my dad to buy some cigarettes and alcohol for you."

  Jiang Pingan laughed dumbfoundedly, nodded and said: "Okay, okay, you can give me more things when the time comes."

   "Well, there are not many gold bars under the bed, I will go back to my mother's house to get some when I have time, and I will send you some more." Lou Xiaoe said excitedly.

  Jiang Ping'an rubbed her hair, and said softly, "You're such a stupid and dumb idiot..."

  —————

  The next few days.

  Jiang Ping'an was not in a hurry to go to the countryside to purchase supplies.

  The factory issued a notice that all employees should concentrate on studying the spirit of the document for a few days.

   Learning and improving is very important, and Jiang Ping'an followed suit for several days.

  Sunday is a holiday.

   Early morning.

  As soon as He Yushui returned to the courtyard, he found Jiang Ping'an early and took his clothes to wash.

  I wanted to take advantage of the holiday and sleep in.

  After being woken up, Jiang Ping'an tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep.

   "Woo... this girl, can't you come over later to get your clothes, it's not like I won't wash for you!"

  Jiang Pingan got out of bed, got dressed, poured hot water in a thermos bottle, and went out to wash his face and brush his teeth.

  As soon as he finished washing, he saw Xu Damao coming out of the courtyard with his head on his head in a daze.

  After seeing Jiang Ping'an, Xu Damao rubbed his eyes and said casually:

   "Jiang Pingan, Ezi asked me to take the message, please come to my house for dinner at noon."

   "Yes, I see." Jiang Ping'an nodded, and was about to go back to the house with the washbasin in hand.

   "Don't leave in a hurry, the matter is not over yet!" Xu Damao shouted hastily.

  Jiang Ping'an stopped, turned around and said, "Let's talk! What else is there?"

  Xu Damao stepped forward and asked in a low voice:

   "I heard that for a while, you are going to go to the Northeast with your director to make purchases?"

   "Well, there is such a thing, what's the matter?" Jiang Ping'an nodded and asked.

  Xu Damao rubbed his hands, smiled and said, "Can you talk to your director?"

   "In the accompanying list, add my name?"

  Jiang Pingan sneered, raised his eyebrows and said:

   "Xu Damao, you haven't woken up from the dream at night, right? It's just fantastic!"

   "We went to the Northeast to purchase equipment for the factory. What are you doing as a projectionist?"

   "Even if you want to purchase projection equipment, there's no need for you to go to the Northeast to purchase it!"

   "I do know that the projection equipment in the factory is all distributed by the headquarters."

   "Hehe..." Xu Damao laughed dryly, and replied, "I want to go out and learn more."

  Jiang Ping'an suddenly said: "You just want to play with the past for a few days?"

   "Hey, that's what it means, do you think it's okay?" Xu Damao nodded repeatedly and asked with a smile.

  Jiang Ping'an's face pulled, and he replied:

   "No! I dare not talk to the director about this."

   "I think if you really want to go, you might as well ask your section chief to see if you can think of another way."

   "I asked, and the section chief said he didn't care, and let me figure out a way." Xu Damao said frustratedly.

   "But he also said that as long as I think of a way, he promised to approve the letter of introduction for me."

   "Didn't I just come to you directly?"

   "You are as smart as a monkey, you can definitely think of a way!"

  Jiang Pingan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and glared at him and said:

   "Are you praising or scolding?"

   "Also, tell me the truth, boy, what do you want to do if you want to go to the Northeast so much?"

  He didn't believe it at all, Xu Damao was just playing in the past.

  Xu Damao faltered for a long time, not telling the truth.

   "Okay, since you don't say anything, don't ask me for help!" Jiang Ping'an turned and left.

  Xu Damao opened his mouth, stretched out his hand, and finally held back his words.

   "If you don't help, I'll figure it out myself!"

   He muttered softly, turned and left.

  Jiang Ping'an's ears are so good. When he returned to the house, he heard Xu Damao muttering, and couldn't help but cut off.

  This kid is probably holding back something, otherwise why did he go all the way to the northeast?

   "What's for breakfast?" Jiang Ping'an pondered.

  After thinking about it, I decided to eat a bowl of rice noodles.

  After making up his mind, Jiang Ping'an lit a fire and boiled a pot of water.

   "By the way, you probably didn't eat the rainwater when you came back from school, right?"

  Jiang Ping'an suddenly thought of it, so he turned and went out, and walked to the backyard.

  Zhongyuaner.

  He Yushui rolled up his sleeves and was working **** washing clothes.

  The water in winter is freezing cold, and the winter clothes are very heavy after being wet, which is very difficult to wash.

  Although the weather is cold, He Yushui's tired little face is flushed, and there are traces of sweat on his forehead.

   "Yu Shui, have you had breakfast?" Jiang Ping'an asked from a distance.

  He Yushui stopped, straightened up, shook his head and replied with a smile:

   "Not yet, is Brother Pingan hungry?"

   "I'm going to cook some mush for you right now."

  Jiang Pingan waved his hand and said with a smile:

   "Farewell, I plan to cook a bowl of rice noodles, so I came to ask."

   "Since you haven't eaten yet, I'll cook an extra bowl."

   "Well, thank you Brother Pingan, I happen to be a little hungry!" He Yushui replied with a sweet smile.

  At this time, He Yuzhu rushed out from the room and said loudly:

   "Jiang Ping'an, cook an extra bowl, let me try it too."

   "Fuck you! My family is short of food, you want to starve me to death?" Jiang Pingan gave him a glare, and said angrily.

  He Yuzhu yelled loudly: "You are short of food!"

   "If you don't eat fine grains, your stomach will be full, and you won't be able to finish the grains!"

  Jiang Ping'an spread his hands and said helplessly, "But I just like to eat refined grains. What should I do? There's not enough food!"

   "I also like to eat fine grains. If you return the rainwater grains to me next month, I will eat fine grains too!"

  Jiang Ping'an frowned and said, "Silly Zhu, do you still have any conscience and benevolence?"

  "Yu Shui saw that I couldn't get used to coarse grains, so she cared about me, loved me, and gave me her grains for finer grains."

   "What about you? Don't say it without love, but you still want to block it. Your conscience has been eaten by dogs?"

   "Not only that, but you still want to eat my food. You're not as vicious as you are?"

  He Yushui chimed in: "Silly brother, you are so heartless!"

   "Brother Pingan went to the countryside so hard, can't you help him more?"

   "How thin do you think he is now? He just needs to eat more fine grains."

   "If you don't help and don't say anything, you still have to eat food from his family. You are so cruel!"

  He Yuzhu stared and asked, "Then why did you go to his house for dinner?"

   "Sister Yushui is different. She washed my clothes for me." Jiang Ping'an smiled.

  He Yushui nodded repeatedly, smiled at Jiang Ping'an, turned around and stared at He Yuzhu:

   "I help brother Ping'an do the laundry, so he treats me to rice noodles."

   "You didn't help him, and you don't lack this stutter, why do you want to take advantage of him?"

  At this time, Yi Zhonghai from the opposite room came out and said seriously to He Yuzhu:

   "Silly Zhu, when did you learn the habit of taking advantage of others?"

   "I heard just now that Yushui helped Ping An do laundry, so Ping An invited him to dinner."

   "This is the mutual help between neighbors, and it is the harmonious and warm side of our courtyard."

   "But it's good for you, you have to eat and drink for free when you open your mouth. This is not advocated in our courtyard!"

  He Yuzhu blinked his eyes, looked at Yi Zhonghai, He Yushui, and Jiang Ping'an blankly, and spared his head.

   "Is... am I really wrong?" he muttered.

   "No, then why can Jiang Ping'an eat my food?"

   "He ate the ration of rain water for one person, so is it wrong for me to eat a bowl of rice noodles from his house?"

  —————

  He Yuzhu finally slipped back to the house in despair.

  Yi Zhonghai's expression softened, he turned around and asked Jiang Pingan:

   "Ping An, the payment will be closed in a few days, is there still enough food?"

   "Master, some are not enough to eat." Jiang Pingan sighed.

  Yi Zhonghai pondered for a moment, and said, "Although you don't like whole grains."

   "But my family only has coarse grains, why don't you bring a few catties to meet the emergency?"

   "Thank you, sir, I'll be more frugal, and I'll grit my teeth and stick to it for a few days!" Jiang Pingan said with a look of emotion.

   "Anyway, I haven't been to the countryside these days, so it's okay to eat less."

   "I can't be too selfish and take care of myself."

   "You gave me the food, you and the first mother will starve."

   "What a good boy! It's okay, it doesn't matter if your mother and I eat less." Yi Zhonghai said happily.

  Jiang Pingan hesitated, nodded and said:

   "Then thank you, grandpa. I have a big stomach and I really want to be full."

   "By the way, a leader gave me a catty of rice noodles a few days ago, and I'm about to cook it!"

   "I'll cook a bowl for you and Da Ma later, don't refuse!"

   "This thing is not very hungry, just taste it!"

  Yi Zhonghai ticked the corner of his mouth, nodded and said with a smile:

   "Well, it just so happens that your mother and I didn't have breakfast."

  He helped Jiang Ping'an not because of his stuttering, but because of his filial piety.

  Compared to He Yuzhu, Jiang Ping'an is a kid who knows how to do things.

  He will send some small things from time to time, which makes people feel comforted.

   This is why, when He Yuzhu and Jiang Pingan were arguing, he would have his heart for Jiang Ping'an.

  Jiang Ping'an is right, people have selfishness.

  No matter how serious a person is, they all have selfish intentions.

  Jiang Pingan fully agreed upon seeing the answer, and said with a smile:

   "That's good, the uncle didn't treat me as an outsider."

   "Haha, you boy!" Yi Zhonghai laughed heartily, pointed at Jiang Ping'an, turned and went back to the room.

  Jiang Pingan laughed, turned around and said to He Yushui:

   "Rain, I'll go back and soak the rice noodles in hot water."

   "Wait for you to come over before cooking, it will be cooked soon."

   As he spoke, he looked around, leaned forward and whispered:

   "At that time, you can help me fry some eggs."

   "Hey, the rice noodles are even better!"

   "Yeah, siu... Brother Ping'an is so kind to me!"

  He Yushui blinked his eyes, swallowed, pursed his lips and smiled.

  Jiang Ping'an smiled, turned around and went back to the house in the front yard, took four or two meters of noodles, and soaked them in warm water.

  The rice noodles produced in Space, after one or two dry powders are foamed, have three or two weights.

  After four taels are sent, there will be one catty and two taels.

   At that time, cook four bowls, three taels per bowl, add an egg, just right.

  As for why he didn't bring He Yuzhu with him, because the boy didn't ask him to eat the leftovers he usually brought.

   Unless there is something to ask for, it is very enthusiastic.

   Having said that, He Yuzhu's popularity in the courtyard is really bad.

  In the original book, he is the main character, but he talks poorly, fights, steals, smashes glass and so on.

  Even during the New Year’s Eve, there were a few stickler brothers and sisters, and every family knelt and kowtowed to ask for red envelopes, and cursed others if they didn’t give them.

   I have done a lot of wicked and smoky things.

  Under normal circumstances, someone as lawless as him would have been beaten to death long ago.

  Why did Xu Damao become extinct? It was Sha Zhu who kicked him in the crotch!

  Anyone knows the dangers of crotch kicking!

  Jiang Ping'an didn't believe that He Yuzhu didn't know, which shows how vicious his thoughts are.

   As for unintentional mistakes?

   Once or twice can be said to be unintentional, but often, it is intentional.

  After soaking the rice noodles, Jiang Pingan took another basket and put ten eggs in it.

   When the rain comes over, fry four, one in each bowl.

   After a while, the water boiled.

  Jiang Pingan saw that He Yushui hadn't come yet, so he filled the thermos bottle and added some cold water to the pot to boil.

  At this time, Xu Damao stood outside the door and looked inside.

  Jiang Ping'an frowned and said, "What are you looking at? You want to eat too?"

   "Well, Ezi and I haven't had breakfast yet!" Xu Damao nodded and smiled.

  Jiang Pingan hesitated, nodded and said:

   "Okay, I often eat your food, and today I will treat you and Miss Xiao'e to a meal too."

   "Okay, you are interesting enough, then I'll go back and talk to Ezi first."

   Xu Damao nodded and said something, and left happily.

  Jiang Pingan smiled, and took out two taels of dry powder into the rice noodle bowl.

  After the water boiled again, Jiang Ping'an went to the middle courtyard to call her before He Yushui came.

   "Rain, rest for a while, wash after eating."

   "Hey! I'm coming!"

  He Yushui responded, washed his hands in the water a few times, wiped his body dry, and trotted over.

  Back in the house, Jiang Pingan pointed to the pot for soaking rice noodles and said:

   "Six bowls of rice noodles here should be enough. You can fry six more eggs and add one to each bowl."

   "Isn't it four bowls? How did it become six bowls?" He Yushui asked doubtfully.

  Jiang Pingan smiled and said: "Let Xu Damao watch, why not treat him and sister Xiao'e to a bowl each?"

   "Oh, then I'll fry the eggs first, and the rice noodles will be ready soon." He Yushui nodded and started to work.

   In a short while, six bowls of spicy and refreshing spicy rice noodles are ready.

  Jiang Pingan found a wooden tray, put four bowls on it, and said to He Yushui:

   "You eat first, I will send these four bowls to the backyard, and I will be back soon."

   "I'm not in a hurry, we'll eat together when you come back." He Yushui said with a sweet smile.

  Jiang Pingan smiled, nodded and said, "Alright, then wait for me."

   As he spoke, he walked straight to the middle courtyard with a plate containing four bowls of rice noodles.

   Came to Yi Zhonghai's house, the couple were chatting.

   "Master, the rice noodles are ready, I'll give you a taste." Jiang Pingan stepped forward and said.

   "Spicy, I don't know if you are used to it."

  The first mother glanced at it, took a bowl, handed it to Yi Zhonghai, and said with a beaming smile:

   "Spicy is good, you should eat something delicious in winter!"

   "Hey, there are still eggs, please take the eggs back and eat by yourself, we are old and can't eat this."

  Jiang Ping'an said: "Hey, I have mine too, so you're welcome!"

  Yi Zhonghai took the bowl, nodded and smiled and said, "This is a wish from Ping An, so let's not refuse!"

   "Master is right, if you are polite, you would treat me as an outsider." Jiang Pingan smiled.

  The first mother smiled and said: "Well, we are not polite, you bring it, we will eat."

  Yi Zhonghai stepped in and asked, "What are the other two bowls?"

   "For Xu Damao and Sister Xiao'e." Jiang Pingan said with a smile.

   "Their family often treats me to dinner, so I can't go back to him once?"

  Yi Zhonghai nodded and smiled, "This is called reciprocity, and that's how it should be."

   "Okay, then eat slowly, and collect the bowls when the rain comes." Jiang Pingan said, said goodbye and left.

  When I came to Xu Damao's house, Lou Xiaoe was about to go out.

   "Sister Xiao'e, where are you going?" Jiang Pingan asked with a smile.

  Lou Xiaoe smiled sweetly and said, "I saw that you didn't believe me for a long time, so I was going to have a look!"

  —————

  Eat spicy rice noodles in winter.

  Spicy and satisfying, warm and satisfying, warm heart and stomach!

  The aroma is tangy, and the steaming hot spicy rice noodles are full of color, fragrance and taste.

   Take a sip, the spicy and delicious aroma rushes straight to the forehead, making people sweat profusely after eating, and the whole body is transparent.

  The whole person is warmed up!

   "Comfortable!" He Yushui put down the bowl and chopsticks, lazily refusing to move, and there were a few small beads of sweat on Qiong's nose.

  Jiang Pingan lit a cigarette, took a puff, and said with a smile:

   "Later, you go to the home of Da Ye and Xu Damao, and take the bowl back by the way."

   "Well, wait a little longer, I guess they didn't finish eating so quickly." He Yushui pursed his lips and smiled.

   As she spoke, she looked around the room and asked curiously, "Did Yan Jiedi clean this room?"

   "Yes, I made an agreement with her to help me clean it the next day." Jiang Pingan nodded and replied.

  He Yushui smiled and said: "Let me just say it, give her another chance, it's right!"

   "She's such an adult, it's okay to help with cleaning."

   The two chatted for a while, and when the time was almost up, He Yushui went to collect the bowls.

   With her here, Jiang Ping'an doesn't need to help with anything at home, comfortable!

  He Yushui took the bowl back, cleaned it up, and went back to the courtyard to wash clothes.

  Jiang Pingan had nothing to do, so he took out the study notes from the previous few days and reviewed them.

   These days, there is no harm in keeping these things in mind.

   "Unite true friends to attack true enemies."

  “There is only one way to eliminate war, and that is to oppose war with war.”

   "Considering the worst possibility, you will never suffer."

   "..."

  Time passed slowly.

  The sun rose, and the sunlight came in through the window and shone on the desk.

  The courtyard was quiet, with cold fire and autumn smoke.

   The closer the day of customs duty is, the less surplus food each household will have.

  Most residents have stopped eating breakfast.

   Rest on Sunday, in order to save food, only eat one meal a day, there are many people.

  The drought has lasted for more than a year, and people don't know when it will end.

   It is better to have food stamps. You can go to the market to find some sweet potatoes, potatoes, yam **** and other miscellaneous grains to supplement the ration.

   Those without food stamps can only starve.

  In this season, even wild vegetables are hard to find.

  When the sound of footsteps came, Jiang Ping'an looked up.

  I saw Yan Jiedi coming over with a wooden bucket in one hand and a rag in the other.

   "Brother Ping An, I'm here to clean your room." Yan Jiedi pursed her lips and said with a smile.

  Jiang Pingan nodded and waved to her.

  After Yan Jiedi approached, he asked gently: "Didn't you eat this morning?"

   "Well, no!" Yan Jiedi nodded slightly.

  Jiang Ping'an smiled, and ordered: "Ah... open your mouth!"

  Yan Jiedi pursed her lips into a smile and rolled her eyes, but she still opened her small mouth.

   A maltose the size of a pea was thrown into her mouth by Jiang Pingan. It was so sweet that it made people feel happy.

   "Thank you Brother Pingan!" Yan Jiedi said with a smile.

  Jiang Pingan put away his notes, got up and said:

   "No thanks, you can clean the room first, I'll go to the yard for a stroll."

   Coming out of the room, Jiang Pingan walked to the courtyard and saw He Yushui drying clothes.

  Jiang Ping'an nodded in satisfaction. This girl puts more effort into washing his clothes than washing her own.

  Just about to praise her a few words, suddenly there was a commotion from the outer courtyard, as well as Jia Zhang's curse.

   "Die! Go! Get out of the way!"

   "I tell you to get out of the way, you are going to die!"

   "Why don't you die? Do you still have sympathy?"

   "..."

  Jiang Pingan heard Jia Zhang's scolding and screaming, and secretly thought that the courtyard was lively again.

   Jia Zhang's cursing sound spread far and wide.

  Jia Dongxu came out of the house first, took a look at Jiang Ping'an, and ran straight to the front yard.

   Then He Yuzhu, Yi Zhonghai, Xu Damao, Lou Xiaoe, and Liu Haizhong came out one after another.

  And other residents in the courtyard also heard the sound and came out to watch the excitement.

   "First uncle, second uncle, sister Xiao'e..." Jiang Pingan greeted them one by one.

  Yi Zhonghai stepped forward and asked, "Is this Jia Zhang's return?"

   "Well, it's in the front yard. I'm going out to have a look." Jiang Ping'an nodded.

  Yi Zhonghai frowned, hesitated, and walked towards the front yard.

  Others followed, wanting to see why Jia Zhang scolded people in the front yard but didn't go home.

  When Jiang Pingan came to the front yard, he almost couldn't laugh out loud when he saw Jia Zhang and Banggen.

  I saw two people sitting weakly at the gate, unkempt, ragged, like beggars.

  Jia Zhangshi and Bang Geng, who were originally fat and chubby, have lost at least ten catties each.

  The clothes on them became looser visible to the naked eye.

  Besides that, their complexions are yellow and waxy, their lips are blue and chapped, they have become a little dull, and their eyes are dull.

  Even so, Jia Zhang's broken mouth is still vicious, and his curses are still very harsh.

  People around are watching the excitement, no one came forward to care about greetings.

   Only Jia Dongxu went to help Jia Zhang to get up, but he pulled it a few times, but he couldn't pull it.

   After all, no matter how thin Jia Zhang is, she still has her foundation and is still very heavy.

  Since Jia Dongxu lost all his money and tickets, he probably seldom had enough to eat. Naturally, he didn't have much energy and couldn't use his energy.

  Jia Zhang thought about it too, but she had the strength to curse, but she didn't have the strength to stand up.

  Looking at it like that, he was also hungry for several meals.

  As for how he came back here, he probably held his breath, and when he reached the gate of the courtyard, his anger dissipated.

  One of the two thought about it, and the other pulled it hard, and they tossed and tossed there, but there was no effect for a long time.

  The people around looked at it and frowned and laughed, but no one stepped forward to help.

   Jia Zhang's dead old woman is a mad dog who will bite whoever she catches.

  It’s okay if you don’t help, but once you help, it’s thankless.

   "Are you blind? Don't you see that Dongxu and I have no strength? Can't you come over and help?"

  Look, Mrs. Jia Zhang started cursing again.

  When everyone heard the scolding, not only did they not step forward to help, but they subconsciously backed away, for fear of getting into trouble.

  Yi Zhonghai hesitated, glanced at He Yuzhu, then at Jiang Ping'an.

  After thinking for a while, he said to He Yuzhu: "Silly Zhu, go help me!"

   "I won't do it. I just had a falling out with Jia's family not long ago. I'm too lazy to put a hot face on a cold butt. It's thankless!"

  He Yuzhu shook his head repeatedly, and took a few steps back.

  Yi Zhonghai frowned, and turned to look at Jiang Ping'an.

  Jiang Pingan nodded, walked a few steps with his hands in his hands, and came to Jia Zhang, smiling and whispering:

   "Jia Zhang, you promised to give me two pairs of new shoes, don't forget!"

   "You!" Jia Zhang's eyes widened suddenly, pointing at Jiang Ping'an, he didn't catch his breath, and passed out directly.

  Jia Dongxu panicked and shouted: "Mom! What's wrong with you, Mom? Mom..."

   "Stop howling, she's fine, she just fainted, slap her a few times, and she'll wake up!"

  Jiang Pingan pursed his lips and reminded.

   Jia Dongxu was stunned.

  Looking at Jia Zhang's fat face covered with dirt, he stretched out his hand, but he couldn't slap him no matter what.
