Siheyuan: There are three little cats at home

Chapter 203 The Silly Pillar's Request

Xu Aiguo, Xu Qingfeng, and Xu Xiaoya, because they have the experience of the previous two times, they did a good job this time.

Although the kneading of the dough is still not strong enough, it still looks good.

Of course, the main credit lies in the notes the little girl took before.

In terms of the steps, there were almost no mistakes, and Xu Aiguo gradually gained strength.

If you know what went wrong and carefully avoid it time and time again, the rest will not only be right.

Looking at his younger siblings, Xu Qing couldn't help but want to laugh, the kind of smile that came from the heart.

The character of a child, or the character of a teenager, is not too complicated after all.

They can do things seriously and focused.

It’s not as profound or complicated as adults think.

Just like how they view the entire world, they take whatever they see and don't delve into it, and they don't think of it as a "horse".

Perhaps this is the so-called innocence, and it is commendable that it has not been soaked in the big dye vat of society.

From time to time, the little girl complained that her second brother Xu Fengming made too sloppy steamed buns, and the steamed buns were not round enough and not good-looking enough.

The little guy's nose crooked in anger and he shook his head. He didn't take it seriously and didn't modify it. He snorted and said, "At worst, I can eat it myself."

The little girl glared angrily, stretched out her hand, kneaded the buns that the third brother had kneaded, and helped to do it again.

After Xu Qing waited for the three little ones to finish their work, seeing them each with a sense of accomplishment made him even more happy.

The little girl turned around with a smile and said, "Brother, I, the second brother and the third brother, are amazing."

Xu Qing smiled and said, "Excellent, I will leave the steamed buns to you in the future."

"what?"

Xu Fengming's face suddenly fell, his mouth flattened, his eyes darkly glanced at the sister beside him, and complained: "It's all your fault."

The little girl looked nonchalant and said with a confident smile: "Brother, just leave it to me with confidence."

As for the third brother's complaints, it seemed as if he didn't hear them.

Xu Aiguo said nothing, nodded, carefully scooped up the excess flour on the chopping board, and poured it back into the noodle vat.

"Okay, let's go out and play, and leave the cooking to the eldest brother." Xu Qing said while rolling up his sleeves and letting his younger siblings leave the kitchen.

The little girl and Xu Fengming ran briskly to the front room, but Xu Aiguo did not go out. He sat on the bench in front of the stove and helped light the fire.

Ten minutes later, Xu Qing and his second brother put the steamed buns into the pot to steam them.

Xu Aiguo was still sitting in front of the stove, continuing to light the fire.

As for the chopped vegetables, Xu Qing was not in a hurry to fry them. He waited until the steamed buns were almost cooked before starting.

In the kitchen, Xu Qing was also sitting in front of the stove, looking at his second younger brother who was a little sullen, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Xu Aiguo pinched the poker in his hand and said: "Brother, our school is suspended, which made your previous plan to let me take the high school entrance examination go to waste. I..."

Xu Aiguo showed some embarrassment on his face, as if he had done something wrong.

Xu Qing didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "It's not your fault. It's going to rain, who can stop it. Besides, you shouldn't have taken the senior high school entrance examination this year. It's because your elder brother is a little impatient, but it's okay. You should study hard in the future." , after being admitted to university, our family will rely on you and your younger siblings to win glory."

Xu Aiguo hummed, stood up, went to the front room to get the textbook, then returned to the kitchen, sat in front of the stove and started reading.

Xu Qing didn't ask his second brother to read outside this time. Since he likes to stay here, let him do it.

As long as you can learn it, it doesn't really matter where you are.

Xu Qing quietly looked after the fire in the stove without disturbing his second brother. He didn't get up and start cooking until the steamed buns were almost cooked.

Fifteen minutes later, Xu Qing fried two dishes and mixed another dish of shredded cabbage. With the help of his younger siblings, he brought all the steamed buns and vegetables to the front room.

Xu Qing shouted to Xu Fengming: "Go to Brother Damao's house and wake him up for dinner."

Xu Fengming ran out of the house happily, rushed into Xu Damao's house, and saw Xu Damao who was still soundly asleep. The little guy was lying on the kang, grabbed the feather duster, and teased Xu Damao's nose.

But without waking Xu Damao up, he put down the feather duster and pushed hard: "Brother Damao, wake up, it's time to eat."

Xu Damao snored like thunder and remained unmoved, while Xu Fengming frowned, feeling a little helpless.

At this moment, Silly Zhu came over from the middle courtyard and heard Xu Fengming's voice in Xu Damao's room. He poked his head around and saw Xu Damao sleeping like a dead pig.

Silly Zhu moved his eyes, and whispered to Xu Fengming: "Boy, stay aside and see how I wake him up."

As Silly Zhu spoke, he tiptoed to the edge of the kang, reached out and took off the shoe on Xu Damao's right foot, picked up the feather duster on the side, and hit Xu Damao's soles hard.

In an instant, Xu Damao, who was in deep sleep, suddenly sat up from the kang due to the pain, retracted his right foot that was hit by a feather duster, saw the silly pillar standing in his house, and immediately opened his eyes angrily and said:
"Silly Zhu, are you sick?"

Silly Zhu ignored the furious Xu Damao, turned his head and bared his teeth and said to Xu Fengming: "See, just one click, Xu Damao's grandson will wake up."

Xu Damao was so angry that he wanted to slip off the kang and quarrel with Silly Zhu.

But Silly Zhu expected that Xu Damao would come out like this, so he raised his hand and threw the shoe on Xu Damao's right foot into the courtyard outside the house, and at the same time opened his mouth and said:

"Xu Damao, don't be ignorant. Fengming told you to eat, but you didn't wake up for a long time. I woke you up, and you still got angry. It's really a dog biting Lu Dongbin!"

Xu Damao turned his head and glanced at Xu Fengming who was aside, then turned to look at Shazhu again, his face turned livid with anger.

Shazhu blocked him with words, Xu Damao wanted to get angry again, but just woke up, his head was still dazed, he didn't react for a long time, he pointed to Shazhu and said: "Can't you call people well?
Just wait, if I go to your house next time and see you sleeping, I will cover your mouth with your smelly shoes! "

Silly Zhu didn't care, turned his head and walked out of Xu Damao's house. He didn't come to the backyard to find Xu Damao.

Classes were suspended due to rain yesterday. Silly Zhu wanted to talk to Xu Qing to see if he could help his sister with her homework in the evening.

He hasn't studied much, but he knows that his younger sister is now a sophomore in high school, and will be in her third year of high school in the second half of the year. He will be admitted to university next year. As a brother, he has no education and can't help him. He can't just watch his sister follow in his footsteps. .

If Yushui succeeds in studying, what will happen in the future will be better than him, who doesn't know a lot of characters.

After all, almost all the young cadres in the factory graduated from school.

Shazhu didn't envy that it was fake, but he couldn't read the book by himself, so he could only work hard.

Therefore, he placed his hope on his sister Yu Yu.

Shazhu is not married yet, so there are only him and Yushui in the family.

Part of the money he earned was used to save his wife's school account and maintain daily expenses, and the other part was used to support his sister's studies.

As long as Rainwater can study, he will get married a few years later and sell iron to make ends meet.

Xu Qing was waiting in the room for his third younger brother to call Xu Damao to have dinner together, but he never thought that when Xu Damao didn't come, Sha Zhu came first.

Xu Qing hurriedly let him into the room and said, "Brother Silly Zhu, have you eaten? If not, let's have something together."

Silly Zhu waved his hand, held the cigarette in the corner of his mouth, reached out and took out the cigarette case, shook out a cigarette, threw it to Xu Qing, sat on the edge of the Kang and said:
"My sister and I have already had dinner, and I came here to discuss something with you. My sister's school has been suspended. Can you spare time in the evening to help her with tutoring?"

The silly bamboo tube is like beans, so he directly explained the purpose of coming.

Xu Qing caught the smoke, thought for a moment and said, "Yes, you can let the rain come over later."

Shazhu looked happy and said: "Qingzi, brother, I know you are interesting!"

Xu Qing then said: "Brother Silly Zhu, when you are admitted to college after the rain, don't think you'll blame me for letting my younger brother and sister go to her for tutoring."

Silly Zhu grinned and said: "It's okay, you don't know that my sister is very easy to talk to. When the time comes, when I'm here, I will definitely let her make up lessons for your three little guys."

At this time, after Xu Damao asked Xu Fengming to help him pick up his shoes from the yard, he put on his shoes and walked to the door of Xu Qing's house.

Seeing Silly Zhu, Xu Damao's face darkened and he directly said:

"Silly Zhu, you can't open the pot in your kid's house? You ran into Qingzi's house while stepping on the meal. I can tell you that I paid for the food and worked in Qingzi's house. If you want to eat and drink for free, you can do it now. Pay the money stupidly."

Silly Zhu squinted his eyes, glared at Xu Damao, and immediately sneered: "Xu Damao, don't think that people are as shameless as you. I am a cook, but I can't expose the pot at home? What a joke!"

Xu Damao naturally knew that Silly Zhu was not here for a meal, and he also heard some of what Silly Zhu said to Xu Qing just now while standing at the door of the house.

But he just wanted to take the opportunity to hurt Sha Zhu, who told him that some time ago, Sha Zhu used his food to hurt him.

After Silly Zhu finished speaking, he ignored Xu Damao, stood up, and went back to the Intermediate Court to tell Yushui what Xu Qing had just promised.

Xu Damao and Xu Fengming washed their hands together, sat on the kang, grabbed the steamed buns to eat, and said: "Qingzi, silly Zhu, why did you come here?"

Xu Qing greeted his younger brothers and sisters to eat quickly, looked up at Xu Damao and said:

"Didn't the rain stop classes? Brother Silly Zhu asked me to help her with tutoring at night."

Xu Damao let out an oh, and didn't ask any more questions. He chewed the steamed bun in his mouth, turned his head to look at Xu Fengming and said:

"Boy, the steamed buns made by you, your second brother, and your sister are still good."

Xu Fengming was dissatisfied with Xu Damao's evaluation, and said: "Brother Damao, the steamed buns I make are the best in the world. If you can eat them, you are considered lucky."

Xu Damao saw that the little guy had a serious tone, hehehe, he didn't dare to continue chatting with him, for fear that the bun was made by him, and the little guy would use money to talk about it again.

Of course, Xu Damao knew that Xu Fengming was joking with him, but when it came to money, Xu Damao instinctively wanted to avoid it.

It was just eight o'clock in the evening, and the sky in the courtyard outside the house was almost dark. Yushui walked into the backyard from the middle courtyard with Sha Zhu, holding books.
