Siheyuan: If I marry Qin Huairu, I will become stronger by showing off.

Chapter 195 Lu Xun’s happy life, the two meet again

After watching the lion dance,

Wu Youde and Qin Huairu continued to walk forward. They had nothing to do today. They mainly just wandered around aimlessly, going wherever the excitement was.

I passed by a seller selling candied haws. The red hawthorns were shiny with oil and covered with a layer of white sesame seeds. The sight of them made people appetizing, and sour water could not help but come out of their mouths.

When Wu Youde saw Qin Huairu looking at her, he stopped and said with a smile, "Want to eat?"

"Mmmmm~"

Qin Huairu nodded fiercely.

"Boss, let's have one. By the way, which one do you want, with sesame seeds or without?"

"With sesame seeds, with the fragrance of sesame seeds. Brother Wu, don't you want to eat it?"

"I won't eat it, it's too sour."

Wu Youde shook his head. He really couldn't eat candied haws. It looked sweet, but was actually very sour.

When he eats something sour, his teeth become soft and the taste is too unpleasant.

"Hehe~ I'll eat it then."

Qin Huairu nodded with a smile, and then said: "I have money, Brother Wu, let me do it."

As she spoke, she took out a penny from her pocket and handed it over.

Wu Youde was a little surprised. It said she would be paid a salary, but it had not been done yet. It would not be officially implemented until January.

He couldn't help but ask: "Where did you get the money?"

"what?"

Qin Huairu was stunned for a moment and asked in confusion: "Didn't you give it to me?"

"..."

"That's right, last time you said you wanted to eat fish, I went to buy fish the next day, and I got the remaining money."

"Oh, there's leftovers from grocery shopping, tell me."

Qin Huairu laughed happily. When she was at her parents' home, she never had a penny in her pocket.

But since marrying Wu Youde, she always has money in her pocket, including dime bills and great unity.

Every time she thought of this, she was very happy.

Therefore, the moment she got the candied haws, she immediately brought it to Wu Youde's mouth and said with a smile: "Brother Wu, you eat first."

"Hey, you eat it, you eat it, this one is too sour."

"No~ You try it, just eat one, it's very sweet~~"

Qin Huairu refused and stuffed the candied haws into Wu Youde's mouth. This made him wonder, was this girl deliberately taking revenge on him?
  "Okay, then I'll take one, but let's make a deal first, I'll take just one, and the rest will be yours."

"Yeah, okay, done!"

Wu Youde took a bite. Well, it was crunchy and sweet in the mouth, but after that...

Sour!

He raised his eyebrows sourly.

Seeing Qin Huairu eating there with gusto, Wu Youde swallowed the mouthful and couldn't help teasing her.

"Ruru, was that little monster fun this morning?"

"..."

Qin Huairu, who was chewing candied haws on a stick, froze immediately. She wrinkled her nose, turned her head and glared at Wu Youde with a bulging face, and said angrily: "Brother Wu, you are dead~"

"Haha, will you have fun next time?"

"Hmph~I won't tell you~~~"

Talking and laughing, we arrived at Qianmen Street before we knew it.

Speaking of which, Qianmen Street has been regarded as a very prosperous commercial center in the capital since the Republic of China, ranking among the top three in the entire capital.

There are so many people here today. There are people everywhere, all with their families, talking, laughing, and walking around. It’s very lively.

This made Wu Youde and the others unable to walk fast at all. Wu Youde looked at the surrounding shops while walking. Speaking of which, it had been several months since this time. He had been to this street several times, but he had never taken a good look at it. this street.

For example, there is a big black signboard at the intersection of this street that reads: Guanyin Temple Street.

This Qianmen'er Street, today's full name is Qianmen'er Dashilan Street, its original name was Guanyin Temple Street.

Going further, Wu Youde saw another 'Jinhe Xiangjiafei'.

That's right, it's Garfield.

Seeing these two words, he couldn't help but laugh. This coffee shop is actually quite famous.

It was here that Mr. Lu Xun drank coffee for the first time, and he specifically mentioned it in his diary:
  'On May 1913, 5, in the afternoon, I went to Jinhexiang to drink jiafei with Xu Ji on Guanyin Temple Street. '

Drinking coffee is just like drinking coffee.

Not far ahead, Wu Youde saw another 'Dongshengping Bathhouse'.

Well, Mr. Lu Xun often comes here to take a bath and rub his back.

Basically his activities are like this:

When I have nothing to do, I often walk to Liulichang to hunt for goods;
  Take Yangmeizhu Xiejie and go all the way eastward to the back door of Qingyun Pavilion, which is right at the front door of Dashilar.

Upstairs is the teahouse, where you can rest, meet friends, drink tea, get a haircut, go shopping, etc. After having some fun, go out from the main entrance and take a bath in Dongshengping Bathhouse not far to the east.

This 'Dongshengping Bathhouse' still existed in later generations, but was changed to 'Dongshengping Hotel'.

Mr. Lu Xun loved shopping here. His diary records that he visited Guanyin Temple Street more than 400 times.

Wu Youde walked and looked around, passing by Huifeng Hall, and he even took Qin Huairu in for a walk.

This 'Huifengtang' sells cosmetics and has been around since the late Qing Dynasty. It can be said to be a time-honored brand.

There are not only traditional rouge and gouache, but also popular creams, perfumes, toilet water, lipsticks, etc.

Wu Youde actually doesn't like anything.

Especially the perfume, it was so fragrant, there was no comparison with the [Chanel Encounter Tenderness Perfume] he bought in the mall.

But it's better to be rare, especially Rouge.

A thin piece of red paper was held up and down by the red lips and sipped gently.

That action is really quite seductive to be honest!
  Wear silk stockings with a woman and rub them up little by little along the toes, and some have a fight!
  Wu Youde bought a few boxes for Qin Huairu, and the colors were quite rich. There were several kinds of light reds, such as rose red, bright red, light red, orange red, etc.

There were also dark colors, which opened Wu Youde's eyes.

I bought rouge, cream, gouache, and eyebrow pencil.

Qin Huairu was interested in these and wanted to try them, because a little salesperson in the store had her eyebrows drawn and gouache applied, and they looked pretty good.

It made her feel itchy!

Can you agree to this?

buy!
  It is indeed a woman's nature to love makeup.

Wu Youde was a little worried. After buying these things, how to use them was still a problem. He didn't know how to put on makeup, so there was no need to worry about Qin Huairu and Xue Chunmei, they didn't know how.

Then when we go back, the two of us should not turn into monsters, that would be a bit scary...

Come out of 'Hui Feng Tang',
  Qin Huairu took Wu Youde's arm and said softly: "Brother Wu, you are so kind~"

"What's wrong?" Wu Youde asked with a smile.

Qin Huairu smiled and said, "You can buy me whatever I want."

"Haha, you are my wife, who will buy it if I don't buy it for you?"

On the street, you shouldn't behave too arrogantly. Wu Youde squeezed her hand and said with a smile: "As long as you want it, then we will buy it. Let's go and have a look at the front."

Eh?
  After walking about ten meters, Wu Youde couldn't help but stop and looked up at the two-story building in front of him.

There is an arched doorway, a red lacquered door, and a high wall made of blue bricks. There is a stone plaque with three large characters engraved on it.

——Qingyun Pavilion.

There are even more anecdotes here, among which the ones that impressed Wu Youde the most were Cai E and Xiao Fengxian.

It was at the "Puzhen Garden" in the "Qingyun Pavilion" that General Cai E met Xiao Fengxian. Since then, the two have frequently dated here, thus deducing a widely circulated love story.

Of course, the ending for both of them is sad.

After looking around, Wu Youde took Qin Huairu and left here.

... half an hour later,

Looking at the shop in front of her, Qin Huairu hesitated and whispered: "Brother Wu, are we still here?"

The two of them were standing at the entrance of 'Chen Kee Silk Shop'.

Wu Youde felt that today was New Year's Day after all, which was the Gregorian New Year. Since he came to Qianmen, he had to come and take a look.

Publicly speaking, he and Chen Xueru are now partners.

Personally speaking, that is his woman.

So, you have to go in and take a look.

Wu Youde rubbed Qin Huairu's hair and said with a smile: "It's okay, she will have to call you sister from now on!"

"what?"

Qin Huairu's eyes widened, she was thoughtful and felt a little sad.

Sure enough, so is this one.

Hey~
  No wonder the last time I came here to buy clothes was free...

That Chen Xueru is so beautiful, so good at dressing up, just like the big stars in the movie, and she is so rich.

Will Brother Wu no longer want himself?
  All of a sudden, all kinds of thoughts came to Qin Huairu's mind, which made her good mood for shopping suddenly no longer beautiful.

"What are you thinking about?"

Wu Youde flicked her cheek with his fingers and said with a smile, "You don't need to call her sister."

This sentence immediately made Qin Huairu overjoyed, and she exclaimed: "Really?"

"of course it's true."

Wu Youde smiled and said, "Can I still lie to you? Not only her, but everyone else has to call you sister, no matter they are older or younger than you, they all have to call you sister."

"Then I...I don't need to call them sister?" Qin Huairu asked.

"Correct!"

Wu Youde nodded in affirmation, and then explained: "The reason why I asked you to call Meimei sister is if she comes in earlier than you, so I have to take her feelings into consideration.

But there is no need for others, they are all later than you, so they all have to call you sister.

Can you understand this? "

"Mmmmm~"

Qin Huairu nodded repeatedly and said softly: "Brother Wu, I understand, Sister Mei is a very nice person, it doesn't matter.

Hehehehehe~~"

"Are you happy now?"

"Yeah~"

"Okay, let's go in and have a meal together at noon."

……

Today is New Year's Day. There are many people on the street and there are many people in this store.

There were many people coming in to look at clothes and buy fabrics, and there was an endless stream of people at the counter. Wu Youde came in and took a look around, but didn't see Chen Xueru.

Is this in the backyard? Still not at home?
  After all, today is New Year's Day, so it's normal to spend time with your family at home.

"Little Tweety! Little Tweety!!"

"Ah? Mr. Wu, please wait a moment."

Xiao Cuier was helping people introduce clothes there. When she heard Wu Youde calling her, she immediately called another girl to replace her and then came over.

"Mr. Wu, you are here~" Xiao Cuier smiled.

"Where's your lady?"

"Oh, where is the backyard? Can I take you there?"

Xiao Cui was very attentive and glanced at Qin Huairu while speaking. She secretly guessed many versions of the relationship between Wu Youde and her own lady.

She thinks the most likely thing is that the two of them have an affair!
  But, is this Mr. Wu already married?

Then this is...

Xiao Cuier blinked and looked at Wu Youde, with a faint expectation in her eyes. She wanted to see how the young lady and Mrs. Wu would get along later.

However, to her disappointment, Wu Youde shook his head and refused.

"Then I'll go there by myself, and you can go about your business."

"Mr. Wu, can I take you there? Things are going well up front. I've called in a few more people today. It's very busy."

Eh?
  Having said that, are you a little too positive?
  Wu Youde raised his eyebrows and looked at Xiao Cui'er. This little girl has beautiful features, red lips and white teeth. She looks very cute with two braids.

But it's just a little small.

Everywhere is small.

After looking around, Wu Youde guessed that this girl was young and her body hadn't developed well yet, or she had developed late.

"Little Cui'er, how old are you?"

"Huh? Oh, I'm fourteen years old."

"A full year old or a false one?"

"nominal age."

Wu Youde nodded, that means he is only thirteen, which is one year older than Lou Xiao'e.

But look at what Lou Xiao'e does at home every day, studying and drinking milk tea; look at Xiao Cuier, everyone is working out to make money.

This is human life, everyone has his own destiny.

"I know the way, go ahead and do your thing. Here, today is also the Chinese New Year. I'll treat everyone to some candied haws. You go buy some and come back to share."

With that said, Wu Youde took out a dollar and handed it over.

Xiao Cuier was not polite and continued with a smile. Although she couldn't watch the fun, it was good to eat candied haws.

"Thank you Mr. Wu, I wish you a happy new year, great fortune and good luck!"

"OK."

……

Wu Youde led Qin Huairu through the hall and into the backyard.

The courtyard was covered with snow, and only a path was cleared on one side. The courtyard was quiet. When Wu Youde walked to the door of the main room, he heard a burst of singing, and the melody was quite familiar.

He turned back and smiled at Qin Huairu, then opened the door and walked in without knocking.

"Little Cui'er?"

Then Chen Xueru's charming voice came from the room. When she heard no one said anything, Chen Xueru felt strange. She turned around and sat up straight.

"How did you come?

Ah... welcome! Come in, come in and sit! "

The second half of the sentence was what she said to Qin Huairu. Seeing Qin Huairu coming, Chen Xueru got off the brocade couch, put on her shoes, and came over.

"Come, sit here, it's cold outside, right? Haha~"

She pulled Qin Huairu and walked inside, smiling and very enthusiastic.

This attitude immediately surprised Qin Huairu.

It didn't seem like this last time, right?
  I felt that she was very arrogant last time... Only Brother Wu showed a smile, spoke enthusiastically, and looked very polite to herself and Sister Mei.

She felt a little strange in her heart, but Qin Huairu followed Chen Xueru and sat down on the brocade couch. She had nothing to say and didn't know what to say.

I could only say softly: "Thank you~"

"Haha, why are you so polite? Huairu, right? Oh, I found that our names are really similar, both contain the word "ru"."

Chen Xueru smiled again and said, "What do you want to drink? Tea or coffee?"

Qin Huairu was stunned and looked at Wu Youde as if asking for help.

What is coffee?
