Restarting life in Siheyuan

Chapter 179 Celebrate Mid-Autumn Festival Together
(Thank you to Mr. Blank for your monthly ticket support, and thank you again for everyone’s monthly ticket support yesterday)

In the evening, I brought a plate of shrimp and eggs made by Shazhu to the dormitory to replenish protein and satisfy everyone's cravings.

"This tastes good. Lao Liu still has this skill, but you can't tell."

Chen Zhihe was the first to make a fuss. Seeing this, the others quickly looked for chopsticks and wanted to have a taste. Only Fang Jiaming, the bad guy, took action directly.

"That's too much. You're not a Mongolian, why are you trying to catch eggs with your hands?"

The boss made severe criticism and then took action himself. If he were to look for the chopsticks again now, he would probably have them taken away by the time he found them.

"Boss, you are so shameless. You say one thing and do another. On behalf of the people of Guangdong Province, I despise you!"

"Ha ha ha ha".

After everyone finished cleaning, Zhang Yong couldn't help but ask.

"Why did you think of bringing shrimp here? This thing is hard to handle. I have never eaten it before. It tastes really good."

"You just have fun. I asked our chef to make this. I don't have this skill. Didn't I ask you to add some protein last time? Why don't you want to do it?"

“It would be great if I had some pork protein. I just replenished this seafood protein, so I will eat it again and again.”

Chen Zhihe pretended to express regret, which made everyone laugh again. Pork is very tight these days, and Zhu Xuefeng couldn't get many votes. He mainly relied on wild boar to beat the teeth as a sacrifice.

"Is the school cafeteria cooking seafood?"

"Yesterday there was roasted yellow croaker in the National Day cafeteria. You missed it. It's a shame. It tastes really good, but it's a pity that only one is available per person."

Xue Shaohua seemed to be recalling yesterday's roasted yellow croaker with emotion. Ordinarily, he might not have had the chance to taste it.

"One is still a small amount. Regardless of how many students we have in our school, there are thousands of them. How can we get them so easily?"

"The chef's skills are good. I don't know when the next time will be. This yellow croaker is not easy to handle."

Thousands of yellow croakers cannot be purchased normally. They probably got them by hitchhiking from the steel rolling mill. Otherwise, these fish would not be available at all. I have sent a few of them myself, but I haven’t had time to make them yet.

The network of contacts in this steel rolling mill is very wild. Even institutions like Beijing University have been included in the welfare circle.

Everyone is still talking about the deliciousness of seafood. Indeed, few people in this dormitory have eaten seafood before. Only Fang Jiaming and Qu Zhipeng have the right to speak in this regard.

Zhu Xuefeng did not participate and was lying on the bed thinking about upgrading.

The backing skills, basic boxing skills and sword skills have all been upgraded to level six, and it is not worth upgrading anymore. It costs too much experience, and I have obtained six pills. The fitter has been upgraded to level five, and I can't upgrade even if I am not proficient in mechanics.

There is no need to upgrade fishing and cooking.

I want to practice the basic skills and marksmanship on my own. This gives me a sense of accomplishment, and I don't have to rush to fight. I just need to improve slowly.

There is nothing to upgrade now, and there are still tens of thousands of experience left. Keep it, and upgrade it to the top when the lightness kung fu reaches the first level. Then chase Liang Yan away and let this little girl be proud last time.

The food talk stopped unconsciously, and now I could hear the sound of my roommates flipping through books. I had no choice but to stand up and read.

...

After two days of classes, I had another day off.

I learned from Uncle Xue that the sub-district office quickly agreed to the furniture factory’s affiliation. No, a signboard was erected at the entrance of the compound.

Under Zhu Xuefeng's instruction, the furniture factory's production has been moved to Courtyard No. [-], leaving only one or two people in the courtyard responsible for the introduction and solicitation of displayed products.

At noon, I took my younger brothers and sisters, all changed into new clothes, and came to the yard where Director Wang's house was. Director Wang was already waiting at the door.

Director Wang's house is actually not big. He lives in a building, but it has a complete bathroom and kitchen, and the water pipes are also connected to the house, which is quite convenient. "Xue Feng, bring your younger brothers and sisters in, just like your own home."

Director Wang had little contact with the two children and had only met each other the last time he went to their home. Seeing that they were cautious, he had to let Zhu Xuefeng make arrangements by himself.

"Come in, there's nothing to be embarrassed about. Just follow my brother's lead and do what you do at home normally."

The younger two still couldn't let go, especially the younger one, who was too shy, but the younger sister looked around, a little curious.

"Go wash your hands and help clean up in the kitchen."

Zhu Xuefeng asked the two of them to wash their hands and go to the kitchen to help clean up, otherwise it would be more awkward to just sit there.

"No, no, no, the dishes are ready. I'll take care of this. As promised, Uncle Kong will be back in a moment."

Director Wang took the bag. In addition to mooncakes, he also brought seafood.

"There are prawns, crabs, and yellow croakers. Didn't you go to school? Didn't you come here empty-handed? Where did you get these?"

"Isn't this a festival? The steel rolling mill sent me a message saying it was technical guidance from outside the factory. It was the technical guidance for the production of small motorcycles."

"Well, Lao Yang is quite sensible. At such an old age, he still deceived Xuefeng's invention away from us."

"Don't say that, godmother. The factory rewarded me a lot. I was given a thousand rewards publicly, and another thousand privately. It was quite a lot. I didn't even dare to take it at first."

It was also the first time that the younger brother and sister knew that the reward was two thousand and not one thousand. Their faces were full of difference and admiration. The eldest brother was really awesome.

Director Wang gave the two children two Arctic Oceans and some candies, and the two children just stayed there.

"Oh, I really like it. This old Yang is quite generous. You have to arrange the money well, don't spend it randomly, and don't make people think about it."

Whoever steals money from him is a joke, Zhu Xuefeng doesn't take it seriously.

"Don't worry, I've made all the arrangements. I renovated the house during the holiday, built a small motorcycle, and now I want to do some new things. I'm waiting for the opportunity."

Director Wang looked at Zhu Xuefeng, who looked confident, which was very inconsistent with his age, and couldn't help but laugh.

"I remember the first time I saw you, you were gentle and quiet, like a big girl. Now you are just a little monkey who can't take any time. Look at how good your younger brothers and sisters are."

Zhu Xuefeng said while helping to put away the dishes.

"I have been tempered in the past few months, and there have been some changes. In fact, my sister is also quite naughty at home. Don't look at her. She is still a little embarrassed now. When she gets familiar with you and starts to make trouble, you I can’t stand it.”

Zhu Xuemei heard everything clearly outside, and now she felt a little aggrieved. Why didn't she talk about her second brother, but herself? She was bullied by her elder brother when she was the youngest. She was a good elder brother just now, but soon she turned bad.

Director Wang didn't believe Zhu Xuefeng's evaluation. He turned back and glanced at Zhu Xuemei. The little girl was quite graceful, pretty, full of aura, and full of righteousness. He couldn't help but smile.

"Don't talk nonsense, little girl, if you can still make trouble, my street office will have to wipe your butt every now and then. I can take care of Lao Xue's affairs."

"Why don't you tell me that we have provided the street with more than a dozen temporary workers."

"You kid, you still dare to argue with your godmother, you are so brave."

"Xuemei, bring me a small stool."

Zhu Xuemei found a small stool and placed it next to Director Wang. She squatted down and helped clean up.

"Don't listen to my eldest brother. He just thinks I'm young and always bullies me. I won't make trouble."
