Era: Craftsmen in the Siheyuan

Chapter 130 Surprise
Chen Xueru sat firmly on the Diaoyutai and smiled softly: "Then how many do you want?"

Hou Bingfeng's eyes widened and he said, "I can give you half a percent more!"

Chen Xueru smiled slightly disdainfully upon hearing this, leaned back with her delicate body, crossed her straight legs and said directly to the guest: "You can go."

The two people looked at each other tit for tat, one was calm and the other was resentful. Instead of the love they had when they got married, they only had to compete for their respective interests.

After a while, Hou Bingfeng was defeated. He clenched his fists and said: "Yicheng, I will give up the Yicheng Head Office."

Chen Xueru nodded and said, "Okay..."

Before Hou Bingfeng could breathe a sigh of relief.

Chen Xueru continued: "Then we will take out [-]% as child support for our son. This is not much!"

Hou Bingfeng took a deep breath, forced himself to calm down and said: "Now the child is still young and cannot live without you. When he grows up, let him come to me. I will give up half of it for my son. This is my bottom line. If you If you want more, just come over here!"

Chen Xueru stared at him for a while and said, "Okay, deal."

Hou Bingfeng stood up directly and said: "Separate us as soon as possible. Let's try not to meet again in this life."

After that, he turned and left Chen Xueru's office.

The sadness in Chen Xueru's eyes flashed, and then she returned to being shrewd and capable. She tapped her fingers on the table and murmured: "Xu Deyong, Deyong, I still underestimated you, you still have so many surprises...!"

……

"Shua, Shua, Shua..."

Xu Deyong's hand speed was as fast as a flash of light, and a spicy pimple was peeled off in his hand in the blink of an eye. Xu Hui was really surprised by the speed.

Taking, cutting and throwing away, Xu Deyong kept repeating this process.

You have to do mechanical repetitive movements, so I need to practice my hand speed in advance!
Before the sun went down, he and Xu Huizhen finally packed up the five hundred kilograms of spicy dumplings. Of course, he did most of them, and Xu Huizhen went to take care of the business of the tavern.

Next, let the surface moisture dry and you can marinate tomorrow.

"what……!"

He stood up and stretched out. It was really hard work to become a master.

Xu Huizhen took the time to come in and take a look, and said in surprise: "You are so fast. You can catch up with several people working alone!"

Xu Deyong smiled and said: "Hey, do you want to add a chicken drumstick to me?"

Xu Huizhen pursed her lips and smiled and said: "If you want to eat chicken legs, then I will buy a chicken tomorrow. You can eat it at noon, and continue to make pickles for me after eating."

Xu Deyong pretended to be helpless and said: "You are trying to make me work in a different way, but tomorrow morning I have to buy someone a dowry, so I won't be able to have a wedding wine."

"I don't want to pull you down." Xu Huizhen raised her almond-shaped eyes and said, "Your two friends are here, why don't you go and have a drink with them?"

Xu Deyong said: "Okay, then drink two ounces to relieve your fatigue. I will clean up first."

He cleaned up the yard, went out through the gate, and entered the tavern. He had to avoid suspicion when he should.

He glanced around, declined Master Niu's invitation with a smile, went to the counter to take two taels of wine and two side dishes from Xu Huizhen, and found Cai Quanwu and Liu Dezhu sitting at a table in the corner.

Fan Jinyou smiled and put on eye drops and said: "Master Niu, he is not giving you face. Don't talk to him in the future. He is a good match for Wobo."

"Haha." Mr. Niu smiled and said nothing.

This guy is a typical villain who has no money and always wants to take advantage of others. Sooner or later he will fall into trouble.

Hey, go ahead, even if you can't get it, if you can marry Chen Xueru again, it will be in vain for Xu Deyong.

Xu Deyong was too lazy to pay attention to him for the time being. He sat down and said to Cai Quanwu and Cai Quanwu, "Have a good New Year. What have you been busy with recently?"

Liu Dezhu said with a smile: "What else can you be busy with? Just contribute to make money. Hey, you are so funny. If you don't sit alone at the middle table, let us two sit down."

Xu Deyong said: "Hey, we are all friends, so don't talk about our differences. Why, why are you still angry that I want to sit at Niu Ye's table?"

Cai Quanwu said: "That can't be done."

"It's over now, don't just drink, eat vegetables." Xu Deyong said.

"I've made Deyong spend money again." Liu Dezhu said with a smile.

Cai Quanwu said sincerely: "The food you bought to go with the wine is not good."

Xu Deyong whispered: "Don't be polite, I'm not buying wine for the boss lady. This is all given as a compliment. If you feel sorry for me, you should pay attention when you are working nearby. If someone makes trouble, help me."

"Don't worry, be sure to pay attention." After hearing this, Liu Dezhu began to eat with peace of mind.

Cai Quanwu nodded and said, "It's up to you."

The three of them clinked glasses and took a sip. Xu Deyong asked with a smile: "Where's Qiangzi? Why haven't you seen him? I'm still waiting for him to apologize to me for drinking with me!"

Liu Dezhu said angrily: "Hey, don't mention that grandson. That grandson is buying trucks to start his transportation team. He hasn't started yet, but he looks down on people. Once he starts doing it, he won't be able to go to heaven!"

Cai Quanwu said: "Qiangzi seems to be oversimplifying things, but he doesn't listen and deliberately avoids you."

Liu Dezhu mocked: "That thief Sun is a coward. If you don't turn around until you hit the south wall, you will lose your butt sooner or later!"

……

While they were chatting, Chen Xueru swayed her waist and walked in in a good mood and said: "Huizhen, give me half a catty of this, a plate of tripe and a small plate of flower beans."

Before Xu Huizhen could speak, Fan Jinyou smiled and said: "Hey, shopkeeper Xueru, why are you so happy today!"

Chen Xueru rolled her eyelids and said, "It's none of your business."

Fan Jinyou felt bored and touched his nose a little.

Xu Huizhen smiled and handed the wine bottle to her and said, "Sister Xueru's drinking ability is getting longer."

"That's right." Chen Xueru glanced at her and said, "Sisters, let's have a drink together when we have time. We share the same fate now."

"Okay, you can talk when you have time." Xu Huizhen agreed with a slight smile on her lips.

Chen Xueru smiled and nodded. She turned around with the wine bottle and glanced around. She found Xu Deyong, Cai Quanwu and Liu Dezhu sitting together, and couldn't help rolling her eyes.

Yes, this guy is "self-destructive" and has no chance of winning.

She didn't sit at Mr. Niu's table either, but sat at the table next to the two merchants.

People are divided into groups, and birds of a feather flock together. If a person doesn't have some ability, it's not easy for people from different classes to look at each other.

As the saying goes: If you are young, you won't start a fight, and if you are poor, you won't be unreasonable.If you don't have money, don't join the crowd, and don't persuade others with soft words.If you are weak and cannot bear the burden, if you are in trouble, don't look for relatives.When hardships are over and happiness comes, let’s talk about the journey!

……

The spring is cold and the wind is strong at night.

The tavern drinkers came and returned enjoying themselves.

Xu Deyong also rode a cart home. Along the way, he saw activists digging out sparrow nests with flashlights from time to time.

Tsk tsk, it directly ruined people's lives.

He shook his head and rode back to the courtyard. Dim lights shone from the windows of various houses, and there were faint whispers about the family's affairs.

When I walked to the door of my house, I heard voices coming from inside the house. I pushed the door open and found that there were quite a few people there.

The old man, the old woman, and even the deaf old lady who usually didn't show her face were sitting by the stove.

Xu Deyong glanced at his grandma and found that she was smiling and looking as usual. It seemed that nothing unpleasant had happened.

Since grandma joined the neighborhood committee, her awareness has improved visibly.

In the past, I always quarreled with people in the courtyard over trivial matters, but it has not happened for a long time now.

"Deyong is back." The eldest mother said with a smile.

"Old lady, uncle, aunt." Xu Deyong greeted them one by one.

Xu Nan sniffed her nose and said, "I'm here to drink again. Have you eaten yet?"

"Eat, don't worry you won't starve me." Xu Deyong said with a smile.At this time, the deaf old lady smiled and said: "Deyong, let's try the shoes made by my wife to see if they fit."

Then he handed a pair of black cloth shoes to Xu Deyong.

Xu Deyong said in surprise: "Old lady, did you make this for me?"

The deaf old lady smiled and said: "No, have you forgotten? I told you when you pressed the box a few years ago that I can't let you work in vain to make a pair of shoes for you. If you don't do it well, I will bring it to you. , it’s too late, I’m afraid you kid will corrupt me in my heart, haha.”

Xu Deyong said quickly: "That can't be done. To tell you the truth, I really forgot about this. This is something you have always done with great difficulty. Even if you can't wear it, you can take it out and exchange it for a few dollars. Otherwise, you should take it back. .”

Xu Nanshi looked on with a smile and did not interrupt.

The deaf old lady waved her hands and said: "No, no, there is no reason to take back what my old lady took out. Besides, you deserve it."

Yi Zhonghai also said: "Deyong, just accept it as the old lady's heart."

"Yes, Deyong, please accept it, otherwise it will always be a problem in the old lady's heart." The eldest mother also said.

Xu Deyong narrowed his eyes and smiled and said: "Yes, old lady, you are the eldest person in this courtyard. The elder did not dare to refuse the gift, so the boy accepted it."

The deaf old lady laughed and said, "Hey, that's right, my dear grandson!"

Xu Deyong took off his shoes and tried them on and said, "The shoes are just right for your feet. Old lady, your craftsmanship is as good as my grandma's."

"You are really good at praising others. You won't leave anyone behind." The deaf old lady said, reaching out and pressing the toe of his shoe and said, "It's a little tight, just wear the new shoes and it will be fine."

"That's it!"

……

The few of them chatted for a while, and Yi Zhonghai coughed and said: "Deyong, don't mind the nagging of the elder. Living in this courtyard will inevitably be a bit difficult. When something happens, everyone should step back and be nice. There are no obstacles in life that you can’t overcome, wouldn’t you say?”

Hey, here comes the show!

Xu Deyong nodded and said, "You are right."

The deaf old lady also said: "The Jia Zhang family is indeed a bit unreasonable. She always fights for three points without any reason. Today I scolded her again, and she also knows that she is wrong."

Yi Zhonghai continued: "Deyong, you've kicked this door down, and you're pretty angry. It's not a problem to be frozen like this all the time. It's not easy for me to do my job in the courtyard. Well, you don't have to give me anything. To make new ones, go to the flea market and get two old ones. If they are not suitable, you can modify them."

The eldest mother said nothing.

Xu Deyong blinked and said, "Grandma, what do you say about this?"

Xu Nanshi said calmly: "You make the decision."

Xu Deyong nodded and said: "Master, you are the master in the courtyard and the elder. I am the junior. Logically speaking, I should listen to what you say!"

Yi Zhonghai didn't answer, knowing that he must have something to say.

"but……."

Sure enough, Xu Deyong changed his voice and said: "There are three words in what I said, 'reasonably speaking', sir, we have to be reasonable, our hospital will not be an unreasonable place!"

If truth and kindness are not respected, the most direct way to resolve interpersonal relationships is to fall out.

Xu Deyong was already tactful enough, and again and again, this was the second time Yi Zhonghai came to him to talk about this matter.

Yi Zhonghai's cheek muscles twitched. No wonder Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui didn't want to come. This kid is just a stubborn man and won't forgive others.

The deaf old lady squinted her eyes and stood up and said, "Oh, now that I am getting older, my energy is not as good as before. I will go back and rest first."

Yi Zhonghai stood up, held her arm and said, "I'll help you go back."

Xu Deyong also said: "Old lady, please slow down, thank you for the shoes."

"You're welcome, don't come out and stay in the house."

……

After seeing the three people off, Xu Nanshi hesitated and said, "Xiaoyong, actually it doesn't cost much to buy two old doors at the flea market."

Xu Deyong said: "Grandma, are you soft-hearted?"

Xu Nanshi said: "It's not that you are soft-hearted, it's just that Yi Zhonghai has come to you twice, and this time he half-clinched the deaf old lady. After all, he is the big man in the courtyard. It's not worth severing the relationship with him for this matter. ."

Xu Deyong said: "Grandma, hit her with one punch to avoid hundreds of punches coming. There is something strange in our courtyard, so we can't let go of this matter."

"Okay." Xu Nanshi sighed and said: "I'm also afraid that you didn't have a good reputation before, and now you are so unreasonable and unforgiving. Anyone who proposes a partner to you will have concerns. A few people said this before. I want to introduce you, but there has been no movement so far..."

This is really... great, it saves you trouble!
Xu Deyong said comfortingly: "Grandma, don't worry. Finding a wife is a lifelong matter. I can't rush it. Besides, my grandson is still young."

"Humph." Xu Nanshi snorted and said, "You are still young, but grandma is old and can't take care of your children anymore."

Xu Deyong said with a smile: "Within that year, I promise to find you a beautiful and virtuous granddaughter-in-law. Do you think it will work?"

Xu Nanshi raised her eyelids and said: "Okay, this is what you said. If you can't do it, you have to listen to my arrangement."

"to make!"

……

The night turned upside down, turning black and white upside down.

Xu Deyong was exercising when the two brothers Liu Guangfu and Liu Guangtian came over.

Liu Guangfu said excitedly: "Brother Deyong, my dad promised to buy a rubber band today."

Liu Guangtian said: "I have one too. Brother Deyong also made me a slingshot like yours. I even pointed it at sparrows to hand in my homework!"

Xu Deyong nodded and said: "What it will look like depends on what kind of tree branches you find. Also, don't make any demands on me, otherwise let your dad do it. He's not a fitter who can't do it."

"Hehe..." Liu Guangfu said, "My dad is definitely not as good as you."

Liu Guangtian grinned and said, "Then let's go look for tree branches after breakfast. I will definitely find the best one."

At this time, He Yuzhu came out and said, "You guys, get me a branch by the way."

Liu Guangtian rolled his eyes and said: "A dime."

"A dime!" He Yuzhu glared and said, "You want to eat shit, can you get it for me? Or I'll beat you up."

Liu Guangfu stuck out his tongue and said: "Luanluanluo, Silly Zhu, you don't have the ability to bully our children. If you can beat Brother Yong, we will get you a tree branch too."

"Yes, if you have the ability, you can beat Brother Yong." Liu Guangtian agreed.

He Yuzhu couldn't help but push up his sleeves and said: "Hey, you two little bastards, they didn't learn well at a young age and learned to sow discord. My relationship with Deyong is solid..."

Xu Deyong smiled and stabbed in the back: "I don't have the iron porcelain to bully children."

He Yuzhu: "..."

"Oh oh oh, Silly Zhu is bullying the children, Silly Zhu is bullying the children..."

The two of them yelled and ran away. He Yuzhu rolled his eyes when he heard this. Then he glanced at Youyuan and said as a last resort: "Make me a slingshot, too. It's better than the two of them."

Xu Deyong couldn't help laughing when he heard this, hey, this man is so damn eager to win!
After the exercise, he opened the blind box.

"clang."

An iron pot falls into the blind box space.

Xu Deyong suddenly had a bad association and thought about what he had done during this period...

……

　Thanks to "Tyrant 29" for the reward of 1500 points"

　　Thanks to brothers such as "Driving a tractor to choose a concubine", "Qizi Xiyang" and "I must be serious this time" for their monthly votes.
