Siheyuan: Relieve stress and relieve worries

Chapter 752 Wang Zhan's Memories

Wang Zhan made a bowl of plain noodles for his sister. He spent a week pestering her to learn the essence of making this noodle. For this bowl of plain noodles, he gained another godmother in Yangzhou.

Wang Zhan also made a crab meat lion head dish for his sister. Although there was no crab roe, he used eggs to create the crab flavor instead.

Wang Li took a bite, her eyes lit up, and then she ate happily with big mouthfuls. Qi Dasheng came back at this time. Wang Zhan called him "Master" and then went to make a bowl of noodles for his master.

When Wang Zhan brought it up, Qi Dasheng took a bite, looked at Wang Zhan in surprise, and asked, "Did you learn this from Li Meili?"

Wang Zhan smiled slightly and said a little embarrassedly: "Master, don't say that, she is my godmother."

Qi Dasheng almost spit out a mouthful of noodles. He had always been skeptical about what Uncle Li said, but now he believed it completely.

After dinner, Wang Zhan made a cup of tea for Qi Dasheng. Qi Dasheng took a sip and said, "Uncle Li will come to see you tomorrow, don't go out. By the way, what are your plans for the next step?"

Wang Zhan thought about it thoughtfully and said, "Uncle Li didn't come to see me, he came to see the money."

Qi Dasheng was immediately embarrassed. Wang Zhan continued, "I'm still a child. Children should do what children do, go to school, take care of my sister. I don't want to go anywhere now, at least until my sister grows up."

Qi Dasheng nodded, and then asked, "You haven't fallen behind in your kung fu, have you?"

Wang Zhan looked up at the roof of the house. This was the main house in the front yard, more than three meters high. Wang Zhan gathered his strength, patted the pillar of the corridor with one hand, raised his leg, and "swooshed" to the roof. Then he did a somersault and flipped down from the roof. Qi Dasheng watched and nodded continuously, saying, "You are still young, but you are really talented. It seems that you have put in a lot of effort."

Wang Zhan smiled and said, "Master taught me well. This is nothing. Master, I brought you a gift. I'll give it to you right away."

Wang Zhan turned around and went back to the house. After a while, he came back. Qi Dasheng took a look, smiled, and said, "I know this. This is an American cigarette, Camel brand. This is a lighter, and it uses kerosene."

Wang Zhan was stunned and asked in confusion: "Master, how do you know these?"

Qi Dasheng said proudly: "While you were gone, I was not idle either. I carried out a special mission and eliminated a team of American agents."

Wang Zhan gave his master a thumbs up and said, "Master, you are really awesome. But, now that you are gone, where is my sister?"

Qi Dasheng was instantly embarrassed, and said a little sheepishly: "I entrusted it to Grandma Li, but I got Wang Li's consent."

Wang Zhan turned his head and looked at Wang Li. Wang Li looked at her brother and said, "Grandma Li is so nice. She took me to many fun places."

Qi Dasheng saw another exquisite box, which was long and made of exquisite wood. He asked curiously, "What is this box?"

Wang Zhan said casually, "I brought it for you. It's a rifle, M870, but it has fewer bullets, only fifty rounds."

Qi Dasheng almost fell off the stool and asked, "How did you bring this back?"

"Cats have their ways, dogs have their ways. There is always a way. Look, the patterns are simply works of art." Wang Zhan said casually.

Qi Dasheng couldn't wait any longer and quickly opened the box. He took a closer look and instantly fell in love with the gun. The gun was so beautiful, with patterns all over the metal. It was a work of art. He had never seen anything like it before.

Qi Dasheng had forgotten everything now. He took the box and went back to his room. After a while, he came back and took the teacup back.

Wang Zhan held Wang Li's hand and walked in the backyard. Wang Zhan asked, "What do you want to eat tonight?"

Wang Li smiled sweetly and said, "As long as it's made by my brother, anything is fine. Brother, how come your cooking is so delicious now?" Wang Zhan thought for a moment and said, "I learned it. In order to make the most delicious food in the world for my sister, I have been your brother's apprentice. Come on, I will teach you how to make an oven and make donuts for you in the evening. An American taught me."

Wang Zhan built an oven with blue bricks next to the kitchen, near the courtyard wall. After thinking for a while, he went out to the grocery store to buy a grate. When he finished, it was already four or five o'clock in the afternoon. Wang Zhan hurriedly kneaded the dough, melted the chocolate he brought back from abroad, and made nearly twenty donuts directly.

When the donuts came out of the oven, although Wang Zhan himself was not very satisfied, the sweet aroma made Wang Li's eyes narrow into crescent shapes. She took a cold donut and took a bite of it. After eating one, she looked at Wang Zhan with expectant eyes.

Wang Zhan put the donuts in a bamboo basket and placed it on the stone table. Wang Li sat on the stone bench and didn't move. Wang Zhan reminded her that if she ate too much, she wouldn't be able to eat at night.

But it was Qi Dasheng who cooked that night. He simply prepared three dishes and a soup. The four of them were eating. Wang Zhan looked at Qi Dasheng who was in a daze and asked, "Master, what are you thinking about while you eat?"

Qi Dasheng was a little confused and said, "I only have 50 bullets. I'm thinking about where to try out the gun, but I'm afraid I'm running out of bullets."

Wang Zhan said, "This bullet is indeed a little less, but they are indeed sold in Hong Kong. Rifle bullets are universal. If you can't find a way, ask someone to buy some in Hong Kong Island. As for testing the gun, can you go hunting? Why are you so hesitant? Let's eat."

Qi Dasheng stopped worrying and focused on eating. Wang Zhan asked as he ate, "Is there anything going on at home during the two years I've been away?"

Qi Dasheng said nonchalantly: "No one is here, what could possibly happen?"

Wang Li raised her head and said proudly, "That's right. Our master beat up all the hooligans in Nanluoguxiang and made them kneel in a row at the intersection of Maoer Hutong."

Wang Zhan stared at Qi Dasheng and asked, "Master, you are going to heaven."

"Oh, don't mention it. I've been in solitary confinement for three days. Okay, little ancestor, can you please not expose my shortcomings?" Qi Dasheng said.

Wang Li giggled, and Wang Zhan said to himself, "I was wondering why Maoer Hutong is so quiet. There aren't many people here during the day."

Qi Dasheng glared at Wang Zhan and said unhappily, "Hurry up and eat."

The three of them stopped talking and ate in silence.

The next day, when Qi Dasheng lazily got up from the bed, Wang Zhan had already returned from running. Qi Dasheng asked, "Do you stick to it every day?"

Wang Zhan nodded, then put the buns and fried liver he bought in the kitchen, and then went to the backyard to wake up Wang Li.

Four-year-old Wang Li was still acting like a spoiled child and asking her brother to dress her. The weather was very good today, so she didn't need to wear too much. Wang Li was dressed in a small red sweater, a thin cotton-padded jacket with floral patterns on the outside, green pants on the bottom, and a pair of small leather shoes on her feet.

Wang Zhan tied two ponytails for his sister and took her to the front yard for dinner. Qi Dasheng looked at the pretty Wang Li and exclaimed: "Your brother really knows how to dress you up."

From the smile on Wang Li's face, you can tell how happy she is now.

While eating, Qi Dasheng looked at Wang Zhan and said, "Now that you're back, my family won't need me very often. I think I'd better go to work. Staying here all day is not a solution. Someone asked me to be a police officer before, but I turned it down because of Wang Li. This time, I want to give it a try."

Wang Zhan nodded and said, "Master, you can do what you like without any worries. I'm at home, don't worry."

The three of them had just finished breakfast and cleaned up when a car horn was heard outside the yard. Qi Dasheng said jokingly, "Here comes the one who wants money." Then he turned around and went out to open the door.

Wang Zhan held Wang Li's hand and went out to greet them.
