The booming era begins with the director of the Propaganda Department!

Chapter 355 Wonderful Person!!
Zhang Shenfei started teasing the fourth brother as soon as he entered the room.

Zhang Fenjin rolled his panda eyes at his uncle and said, "Don't you know what's going on? If you hadn't reported me for licking sesame paste, would I have been beaten by my mother?"

He returned home with the bowl of sesame paste. His mother didn't ask any questions, but just glanced at the sesame paste in the bowl and waved her hand for his second brother to take the bowl. Then Bang Bang punched him twice, making him see stars.

If Second Uncle hadn't informed her in advance, how could his mother have reacted so quickly? ?

At this moment, his eyes are still swollen and painful!

Hey, it's all my fault.

Zhang Shenfei was speechless: "This matter has nothing to do with me. After we separated, I went to the street office to pick up your second aunt, and I didn't have time to tell on you."

Zhang Fenjin looked at his second uncle suspiciously, obviously not believing what he said. Zhang Fendou, who was standing by, became unhappy when he saw this.

"Old Four, what do you mean? Is Second Uncle that kind of person? Our mother asked you to buy two taels of sesame paste, but you only brought back one tael..."

Only a fool can't see that there is something fishy about the sesame paste! ! He is guilty of his crime, so don't even think about blaming his uncle for it! ! ! With him around, no one can bully his uncle! !
Zhang Shenfei was so pleased that he wanted to touch the third brother's head, but he found that this boy, who would be sixteen after the Chinese New Year, had grown to be almost as tall as himself, so it was obviously inappropriate to touch his head to kill him.

Damn it, this guy won't be taller than me in the future? ?

After complaining in his heart, Zhang Shenfei could only settle for the next best thing and punched him lightly in the chest: "Fendou from our family is the best. He has known to be close to your second uncle since he was a child. Unlike the fourth brother, who only cares about whoever gives him milk!!"

This also involves praising one and criticizing the other.

But Zhang Fenjin didn't care. He just muttered that if there was no milk, it was his father, and then continued to work.

Life has been hard in the past few years, and eating white noodles is naturally a luxury. But today life is better, at least, last year, few families could afford to eat white noodles! !
Tang Danniu rolled up her sleeves and rolled the noodles herself. After rolling them into thin round cakes, she sprinkled corn flour on them, folded them, and cut them.

When the water boils, turn to high heat and the noodles are cooked when they puff up twice.

The weather was hot, so the noodles needed to be rinsed with cold water. While she was cooking the noodles, Tian Xiaozao, who was pregnant, was also busy. She quickly prepared the sesame paste and added salt, soy sauce, vinegar, and liquid MSG.

Zhang Shenfei cut the cucumber into thin shreds, and there were also bean sprouts that had been blanched in water, chopped white beans, and edamame on the side.

Side dishes such as vegetables have long been under control and need to be purchased with food coupons. Even though today's meal is all vegetarian, it actually takes a lot of effort and supply.

If you go to Yunji Hutong for dinner, it will certainly save you a lot of trouble and you can also eat more heartily.

But during this major festival, every household eats Erfu noodles in the yard, and if the Zhang family doesn't eat it, it will obviously cause criticism.

In fact, in the past two years, on all festivals, big or small, except New Year's Eve, they would follow the crowd in the courtyard for the sake of safety.

After the meal is ready here, ask the second or third son to send some to the old lady in Yunju Hutong.

The old lady can cook by herself, but she is almost eighty years old after all, and she can't do heavy work like rolling noodles.

After serving the noodles today, Zhang Shunsui picked up a bowl and prepared to leave as usual.

Seeing this, Zhang Shenfei also picked up a bowl and went to the next room.

Since she contracted liver disease, the deaf old lady's health has been getting worse day by day. Without Yi Zhonghai's support, her living standard has plummeted.

Just when Zhang Shenfei brought Tian Xiaozao in, they found that the old lady was steaming steamed bread under the eaves.

There is no grudge between the two families. After all, it is the hottest time of the year, so the old lady must be allowed to have a bowl of sesame sauce cold noodles, right?

The deaf old woman had just put the steamed corn bread in a bowl, added a piece of old pickled vegetables to it, walked into the room tremblingly, sat down, put down the plate, broke off a piece of corn bread and was about to put it into her toothless mouth.

Turning my head,

I saw a tall dark figure standing against the light, whose face I couldn't see clearly, walking in with his back to the sunset, carrying a bowl of noodles.

"Silly Zhuzi, do you still remember grandma?" the deaf old lady shouted in a lost voice.

Ever since Jia Dongxu died, Sha Zhu has devoted all his heart to Qin Huairu, and has to take care of Liu Lan at the steel mill in the remaining time.

As for her adopted grandmother who was not related to her by blood, she could only go wherever she wanted.

I thought Sha Zhu had forgotten about me this time, but I never expected that this guy would actually think of giving himself a bowl of noodles.

After the deaf old lady finished speaking, she looked at the figure blankly, with a somewhat excited expression.

As a result, when the other person took a few steps into the room and his entire face appeared, it was Zhang Shenfei.

"Old lady, today is the second day of the dog days. I'll bring you a bowl of noodles to try." Zhang Shenfei smiled, as if he didn't hear the deaf old lady's call of "silly pillar" just now.

"Da Fei," the deaf old lady had a visible sense of loss in her eyes, but it quickly faded away, "Thank you for remembering an old lonely lady like me and thinking of giving me a bowl of noodles."

"Although our family conditions are average, we can still afford to give you a bowl of noodles." Zhang Shenfei said, putting the bowl of noodles on the deaf old lady's table together with the two steamed buns with deadpan looks on their faces.

“This noodle…” The deaf old lady looked at the noodles and was about to cry, “Da Fei, thank you, deaf grandma!!”

A bowl of noodles is nothing.

A few years ago, when Yi Zhonghai was still a married woman and had no children, he took care of her food and drink by the year. Not to mention sesame sauce cold noodles, she also ate fried noodles with soybean sauce and dumplings.

But there are reasons for all that. The old Yi couple just regarded her as a stepping stone to "respect the elderly and help the elderly of others".

Later, after Yi Zhonghai and his wife had their own child, she was no longer useful as an old woman, so they abandoned her...

Sha Zhu treated her well without asking for anything in return, and gave her any extra things he had. But since Qin Huairu became a widow, she got nothing.

In contrast, Zhang Shenfei's selfless gift of a bowl of noodles in the year of disaster brought the deaf old lady to tears.

He even thought that if Zhang Shenfei could continue to help take care of him, it would not be impossible to give these two rooms to him after a hundred years.

This is her private house, different from other residents in the yard!!!

Seeing the deaf old lady eating so happily, Zhang Shenfei couldn't help but tease: "Old lady, do you know who made this bowl of noodles?"

"Who?" The deaf old lady looked up and licked the sesame paste at the corner of her mouth.

"My sister-in-law, Tang Danniu!" Zhang Shenfei smiled.

The deaf old lady couldn't help but laugh: "I've lived a lifetime, and now I'm old, I'm still taking advantage of Tang Danniu."

Tang Danniu is so tough. If anyone in the courtyard can take advantage of her, she will curse them all over the place.

Yan Bugui always likes to wait at the gate of the courtyard, waiting to take advantage, right? He has to walk around Tang Daniu when he sees her.

And there is Jia Zhang, who was a mercenary before she became a worker. But after seeing Tang Danniu, she feels lucky not to be fleeced by her.

"Well, after eating the Erfu noodles today and taking advantage of your sister-in-law, I, an old lady, can finally stand up again." The deaf old lady sighed.

After finishing the second day of the dog days noodles, Tang Danniu waved her hand and arranged for Zhang Shunsui and Zhang Fendou to wash the dishes.

Zhang Shenfei took Tian Xiaozao back to the front yard, fetched a basin of water for his wife to wash her feet, and then he jokingly asked if he could go out for a drink in the evening.

"Why are you drinking again?" Tian Xiaozao's pretty face turned serious.

"Isn't Li Youbing dating someone? They're getting engaged soon. I'd like to invite you guys to come over for a get-together and check on them..." Zhang Shenfei explained. "Oh. That's fine. Don't drink too much and come back early in the evening."

"Okay! Don't worry!" Having achieved his goal, Zhang Shenfei was very obedient and agreed readily.

After settling Tian Xiaozao, Zhang Shenfei turned around and left the courtyard, heading towards Juer Hutong.

The Li family is a family of oil cakes. Their ancestors have been selling this for generations. They have accumulated a fortune by selling oil cakes. The small courtyard they live in now is their private house.

The storefront that Xiao Dan had converted into the back house of the courtyard was the famous Li Ji Youbing shop nearby.

Later, after the public-private partnership, Li Ji Youbing was combined with several other snack stalls to form a snack bar and moved to Gulou East Street. The original storefront was abandoned and rented out after the street was renovated.

They grew up together, so there was no need to be pretentious. After Zhang Shenfei arrived, he saw that the door of the Li family was open, so he walked in without saying hello.

After going around the screen wall, I could hear the fat man yelling loudly, a soft voice, and a child howling at the top of his lungs. The mixture of these sounds made my head hurt.

Judging from the noise, the two children are from Wenruan and Siyan'er's family.

When Zhang Shenfei entered the north room, he saw Fatty, Xian Lingling, Siyaner and Wen Runrun and his wife had already arrived.

There were several side dishes on the table, including one on a plate that contained stir-fried food made by Li Youbing's mother, while the lunch boxes and oil paper bags were brought in by others from outside.

In addition to the dishes, there were two bottles of wine, one Lao Longkou and one Xifeng.

These wines are not common in Beijing. I guess these guys must have bought them from other places after traveling around as drivers.

"Hey? You guys are waiting for my last dish?" Zhang Shenfei strode over and opened a large oil paper bag in his hand and spread it on the table.

Li Youbing's girlfriend Zhou Yueling saw Zhang Shenfei for the first time. She looked at the empty oil paper bag and was too embarrassed to say anything. She just looked at Zhang Shenfei curiously, and then looked at her girlfriend.

The fat man looked over, touched it with his hand, slammed the table exaggeratedly and yelled: "There's nothing, Zhang Shenfei, are you making us eat air?"

Zhou Yueling immediately covered her mouth, seeming to be frightened.

After hearing Li Youbing say that he and his brothers had always played like this, his expression changed and he smiled secretly with his lips curled.

Zhang Shenfei looked at her calmly, turned his head and looked at the fat man again, snorting coldly: "Could you be that kind of person who doesn't care about manners? Just wait and see!!"

As he spoke, he took out a smaller oil-paper bag from his net bag, opened it, and poured the contents onto the large oil-paper.

It's peanuts!!!

This is a good thing. Nowadays, when you go to someone's house for dinner, it's considered a welcome if you bring a bag of peanuts.

Even though Siyan and his friends became drivers and their living standards had improved, they still couldn't help but reach out to grab the peanuts coated with salt and want to have a taste first.

Zhang Shenfei slapped him on the back of his hand. "There's more. Qing, wait for it."

After that, he took out a palm-sized oil-paper bag, opened it, and poured it down...

Hey, pig's head.

Then he took out an oil paper bag and a pig's ear.

...pork elbow, chicken gizzard, beef shank!!!
A bunch of rare things from that era gathered together and soon filled up the large piece of oil paper. There were so many things that they looked like a small hill.

"Da Fei, are you going to rob the vegetable market or the state-owned restaurant?" the fat man was shocked.

"What's it got to do with you? Just eat it." Zhang Shenfei picked up the most beautiful piece of beef tendon and threw it into his mouth, chewing it with relish.

As soon as he started talking, everyone else followed suit. Wen Ruanruan poured wine for everyone, and when it was Siyan'er's turn, she deliberately poured less for him.

"What are you doing? I'm drinking with my brothers, how can you play with your brain?" Siyaner glared at her.

"Brother Siyan, you have to go on a business trip tomorrow, so drink less..." Wenruanruan immediately explained in a gentle voice.

Having said that, he still picked up the bottle and added a little more to Four Eyes.

Seeing this, Zhang Shenfei, Fatty and others couldn't help but give Siyan'er a thumbs up.

For many years, Siyan'er, who is only 1.6 meters tall, has been able to control Wenruanruan, who is 1.88 meters tall. His skill in controlling wives is impeccable.

The fat man was even more outspoken, yelling for Siyan to share his experience: "Li Youbing, you have to learn well. Whether your position in the family can be strong in the future depends on today."

Li Youbing hurriedly shook his head: "That's not what I meant, Fatty, stop talking nonsense."

He turned around and expressed his loyalty to Zhou Yueling: "Yueling, you know me well. As long as we get married, I will listen to you in everything. If you tell me to go east, I won't go west. If you tell me to beat a dog, I won't chase a chicken."

"Tsk tsk..." The fat man shook his head, looking as if he hated her for not fighting for him. "It's really embarrassing. You can't compare with Four Eyes..."

"Why are you envious of the bespectacled guy?" Xian Lingling, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke.

Her facial features were already drooping, and after being pulled like this, her whole face looked even more serious, like a high school dean.

The fat man immediately fell silent and dared not speak anymore.

Zhou Yueling covered her mouth and laughed again, she thought that Li Youbing's friends were so interesting.

After the brothers had three rounds of wine and five kinds of dishes, Zhang Shenfei had figured out Zhou Yueling's background.

Actually, there is nothing much to say about my family background.

This girl is from the old city of Sijiu. Her father used to sell powerful pills at a stall on the overpass.

You could consider him a small handicraftsman, but then again, these days even blind dates depend on one's background.

Li Youbing's family has been selling oil cakes for generations and they are small handicraftsmen, so naturally the ones the matchmaker introduced to him were similar.

The girl sells leather shoes in a department store. She is quite fair and of decent height.

The salesman is one of the eight major members, and the driver is a little more powerful than the eight major members. It is said that if you look up, you marry your daughter, and if you look down, you marry your wife.

In general, from family background to personal work, Zhou Yueling and driver Li Youbing are a perfect match.

Zhang Shenfei felt that the person Li Youbing found was much more reliable than the one Fatty found Xian Lingling.

At the very least, the two families are similar in all aspects, which will also facilitate the two elders to get along with each other and the young couple to communicate, right? ?

Unlike Fatty, whether he can get Xi Lingling depends on the wind. If the Xian family is in trouble, Fatty can still get a chance.

If it's that, it's hard to say...

Young people naturally have endless things to talk about when they are together. Halfway through the meal, Li Dabing, who had been out for a walk, came back.

This Li Dabing is such a wonderful person!!!

Zhang Shenfei and his companions immediately perked up when they saw him. Especially Zhang Shenfei, who came here with a purpose! !
