Chapter 211 Love in the Courtyard

After leaving the world of "Children of the Qiao Family", Suning returned to the real world. Reality means that one must face reality and work day after day to support his family.

After a day of intensive work, Suning fell into a deep sleep quickly while lying on the bed. He slept soundly all night. When he woke up, he found himself holding a long-handled spoon and a wok in his hands.

Suddenly, Suning felt a little puzzled, but it didn't last long before his brain was hit by a wave of memories. Suning then realized that he had started being trained by the system again.

After finally digesting the memories, Suning found that he had traveled through time again, and in the body of Sha Zhu, the biggest "enemy" in Love in Courtyard. It seemed that the system's tastes were becoming more and more peculiar, and it actually chose the world of Love in Courtyard.

[In the world of Love in Siheyuan, the host can play freely and live a different life]

"System, is there a New World gift package?" Suning said silently to the system in his heart.

[Rewards the host to grow any part of the body by one centimeter]

"Aha." Suning finally discovered the "ghostly" nature of the system.

"Master, are you okay? You look so bad."

When he heard the voice and turned to look at the owner of the voice, he found that it was his "favorite disciple" Ma Hua. Suning felt like he had lost the desire to live.

"Ma Hua, how many dishes are left?"

"Two! One is braised fish fillet, and the other is stewed chicken with mushrooms!"

Suning threw away the wok and spoon in his hand, and under Ma Hua's puzzled gaze, he untied his apron, took out a cheap cigarette and put it in his mouth.

Although Ma Hua was very confused, he still picked up the match next to him and lit a cigarette for the master.

Suning felt very satisfied with the sensible Ma Hua. After all, it felt great to be served by someone. He blew out a puff of smoke comfortably and felt much more relaxed.

"Ma Hua, the rest of the matter will be handed over to you and Fatty!

I have something to do, so I'll leave first!"

Before Ma Hua could respond, the fat man beside him quickly said, "Master, don't worry! I will make the other two dishes well!"

"Yeah! If anyone asks me, just say I had diarrhea and went to the bathroom!"

He didn't care about the fat man's self-righteousness and behavior of stealing the credit. As a master, he didn't care too much when he saw the fight between his apprentices, so Suning just smiled indifferently and put down what he was doing.

Although he has traveled to the body of the "big villain" Sha Zhu, Suning is not ready to continue to succumb to fate and wants to fight hard. Doesn't the system say that he can play freely?
Then do whatever makes you feel comfortable!
I will definitely not live as miserable as in the original drama!
"Got it, Master!"

Suning left the steel mill canteen directly and walked towards the main gate of the steel mill. When he saw the workers passing by, he greeted them with a smile.

It seems that although his original self used to have a resentful personality, he was still very popular in the steel rolling mill. Suning felt that he must have been framed by the neighbors in the courtyard, otherwise he would not be so miserable.

In later generations, it is normal not to be married at the age of 30, but in this special era without many personal pursuits, being single at this age is the greatest sorrow in life.

"Master He, are you off work so early today?"

"Brother Zhou! Are you on duty today?"

"Yes! It's my turn today!" Zhou Tong, the security captain of the steel rolling mill, replied with a smile.

"Brother Zhou, I have diarrhea today. Since I see that there is nothing to do in the cafeteria, I'll go back and rest for a while!"

"Ouch! Diarrhea is no small matter. Master He, please be careful! It's best to go to the factory clinic to get some medicine!"

"Haha, I got it!
I just feel a little dizzy after taking the medicine, so I want to go back and take a nap!
Brother Zhou, you guys go ahead and do your work, I'll be back soon!"

"Master He, take care!"

As he watched Suning leave, the young security guard beside him said in surprise, "Boss, this idiot Zhu is so awesome in our steel mill!"

"Humph! What do you know?
I heard that Deputy Director Li is very impressed with Chef He’s cooking skills!
You better be careful in the future, you should know that people with ability are popular everywhere!

We security guards should try our best not to offend people like this!"

"Huh? I get it! Captain!"

The young security guard looked at Su Ning's receding back, his heart filled with envy. As a new employee of the factory, he really wanted to live as carefree as Su Ning. Little did he know that the Su Ning he envied was about to die by banging his head against the wall!
Not far from the factory, he saw a few children roasting chicken behind a piece of ruins. Suning immediately guessed that they were the three Banggeng siblings.

Thinking of the annoying plot that was about to happen, Suning didn't want to repeat the original owner's misery. After thinking carefully for a while, he came up with an idea. He just took out the cigarettes in his arms, and saw that it was a low-quality brand he had never heard of. He had no choice but to buy a pack of Zhonghua cigarettes, and then returned to the steel mill again.

Zhou Tong and the other security guards were puzzled when they saw Su Ning coming back. "Master He, what's going on?"

"Brother Zhou, I have a favor to ask of you." "Oh? What can I do for you, Master He? Tell me!"

Taking Zhou Tong to a deserted place, Suning explained, "Brother Zhou, this is what happened!
I just saw Qin Huairu's son Banggeng roasting a chicken in our courtyard.

I guessed that Banggeng must have stolen the chickens from our neighbor's house in the courtyard."

"So I was thinking, bro, can you please catch them and make this a big deal?"

"Huh? I don't understand!
Master He, haven’t you always had a good relationship with Qin Huairu?

Why did you suddenly do this to them?"

"Haha, I'm not afraid of you laughing at me, brother!
In the past, in order to marry Qin Huairu, I not only borrowed money and grain without expecting anything in return.

Her son Bang Geng almost emptied my room, and I never had a fight with her!"

"But Qin Huairu has been hanging on to me like this, and I haven't even touched her hand. Don't you think I'm miserable?"

"Huh? It's really miserable!

But what does this have to do with what happened today?"

"Brother Zhou, I want to take this opportunity to make a big fuss about Banggeng stealing the chicken.

Finally, when Qin Huairu asks me for help, I will have a showdown with her!

Even if Qin Huairu still doesn't agree to my pursuit, I can still teach Banggeng a lesson for his bad habit of stealing!"

"Hmm! Master He, this is a good idea!
Leave the rest to us!
But when Master He gets his beautiful girl, he'll have to treat us brothers to a good drink!"

"Haha, that's for sure! I'll make sure the brothers have enough to eat and drink!"

Suning then took out the Zhonghua cigarettes he had just bought and stuffed them into Zhou Tong's hand, explaining with a smile, "This is a gift from a leader who cooked for me. You can share it with the brothers!"

"Oh! What should I do?
"Master He, you are too polite!" Feeling the texture of the Huazi in his hand, Zhou Tong's eyes almost narrowed into slits with laughter.

After arranging for Banggeng to steal the chicken, Suning returned to the courtyard feeling relaxed. As for what he had just said to Zhou Tong about marrying Qin Huairu, it was just an excuse.

After traveling to this special era, Suning only wants to live for himself. He doesn't want to continue to be a "big enemy", and he will not be obsessed with Qin Huairu. Fortunately, he still has a storage space, which is a blessing in disguise.

Thinking of his storage space, Suning quickly entered the space with his mind. Seeing that the precious items inside could be used normally, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

This system is really too unconventional, and is different from other systems. Whether it is the attitude towards itself as the host or the rewards given to itself, it shows its arrogance and stinginess. To be honest, Suning is very envious of those big brothers who often give out massive amounts of materials and ability rewards.

Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar courtyard, Suning could only shake his head helplessly and smile bitterly. Tell me what is going on. Facing these weird neighbors all day long, I will really get depression.

"Hey, Shazhu, why are you back so early today?"

"Eh? Third Uncle, are you taking care of your flowers and plants again?
You can't even finish your meal, and I don't know where you get the leisure and elegance from!"

"Silly Zhu, you know nothing!
Apart from being good at cooking, you have accomplished nothing else!
You're almost thirty, right? And you still don't have a wife! "

"Hehe, Uncle Three, it depends on the nature of our neighbors in the courtyard.

I'm on a blind date, but with so many neighbors holding me back, can it really be successful?

Suning complained and ignored the calculating Third Uncle, going straight back to his home in the Central Courtyard.

Watching Suning's departing figure, Third Uncle Yan Bugui revealed a surprised expression, "Hey, Shazhu turns out to know everything! He absolutely knows all the twists and turns here!"

Qin Huairu ran out when she heard the noise, but when she saw that Su Ning returned empty-handed today, she returned to the house with some boredom.

Seeing that Qin Huairu just showed up, Su Ning of course knew what this woman meant, but he smiled indifferently.

Returning to his own humble "doghouse", Suning was almost suffocated. In the original drama, didn't Qin Huairu always clean up the house for him?
Why is there still such a strong smell?

It seems that Qin Huairu really regarded the former Sha Zhu as a "sucker", and deceived Sha Zhu into not knowing east, west, south or north. However, she is no longer the former Sha Zhu, and has her own ideas and lifestyle.

Suning endured the smell that was close to "biochemical poison gas" and cleaned his room inside and out with great difficulty. Only then did he feel much better.

Thinking that a good show would start tonight, Suning lost interest in cooking. He simply washed his stinky feet and went to bed, ready to get enough rest to watch the show in the evening.
