"Lou Xiao'e, we have been talking for such a long time, do you have to do it so decisively?"

Hearing this, Lou Xiao'e also stopped and turned to look at Xu Damao coldly:

"Xu Damao, if I had followed you into the house today, I would probably not be able to explain myself even if I had a mouth all over my body.

It is because of our long relationship that I can speak so clearly. "

Lou Xiao'e was not willing to be outdone. The fact that she was able to come here today meant that she was fighting a battle with no uncertainties!

It must be said that after all, she is Boss Lou’s daughter, and she has some business talents in her bones.

After Lou's mother's careful teaching and after seeing Xu Damao's various behaviors, Lou Xiao'e is no longer the naive Lou Xiao'e who could be coaxed with just a few nice words.

"Lou Xiao'e, although we are not married, I know a little about the situation of your Lou family. Others may not know.

You came to break up with me today, does Uncle Lou know?"

Xu Damao has made it very clear. If you, Lou Xiao'e, want to break up with me, don't blame me for being rude to your Lou family.

Lou Xiao'e smiled and couldn't help but sigh in her heart:

What her parents said was true. They had said it when she came. Judging from the way Xu Damao had acted, he would do anything desperate if he saw that things were irreversible.

However, they thought that this guy would keep his composure and attack secretly.

I didn't expect him to be so impatient.

No wonder, these days Xu Damao has been bragging about his upcoming marriage, and the entire steel mill knows about it.

Now, Lou Xiao'e suddenly did this, it would be strange if he could keep his composure!

"Xu Damao, I already know who you are. You work in the Third Workshop of the Steel Rolling Mill, and in the First, Third, and Seventh Brigades of the Red Star Commune.

Mazigou Commune, Second Brigade, Fifth Brigade, Sixth Brigade, Courtyard No. 27, Dongzhimen Hutong, Shichahai..."

Lou Xiao'e suddenly stopped talking here and squinted her eyes at Xu Damao:

"Do you want me to continue?"

When Xu Damao heard these things, his face suddenly became so gloomy that water could drip out of it. Others might not know what these things meant, but he knew them clearly.

"Lou Xiao'e, you are so cruel. I, Xu Damao, admit defeat!"

After saying this viciously, Xu Damao turned around and went back to the backyard.

This guy is really in big trouble today!

As Lou Xiao'e and driver Hou left, the whole courtyard was in an uproar:

"Hey, this girl is obviously from a wealthy family. Look at her fingers, they are as tender as shallots. Will she be able to cook if I marry her?"

"Of course not, but if they can ride in a car, they definitely don't have to cook for themselves at home."

"Hey, everyone is equal these days. If they really dare to exploit the working people, huh!"

……

"Brother, do you know what's going on?"

He Yushui followed He Yuzhu into the house and asked in a low voice:

"Why did Xu Damao suddenly admit defeat after the lady mentioned so many things?"

He Yuzhu smiled. How could he explain this to Yushui?

"Go, go, don't ask questions about adults' affairs. Hurry up and pack your things. I'm going to take you out for dinner today."

The brother and sister packed up quickly and went out. He Yuzhu first went to the supply and marketing cooperative to pick out a bicycle.

He has been thinking about this matter ever since Boss Lou gave him a bicycle ticket.

However, on Sundays, either the market is busy or the supply and marketing cooperative is out of stock, so we have to wait.

Although there were many people queuing at the supply and marketing cooperative, most of them were buying daily necessities, and the bicycle side was very deserted.

The salesperson was indifferent to the two of them. He Yuzhu took Yu Shui to look around again and again, and finally chose a Phoenix 28-bar truck.

It was not until the moment I took out the bicycle ticket that the salesperson finally smiled.

"Do you want to stamp it?"

The salesperson asked and they said they could also stamp it, but it would cost extra.

"I don't want to bother two people with one thing. Thank you for your help."

He Yuzhu was not short of the extra money, so he took the ticket from the salesperson, paid the money, and pushed his bicycle out of the supply and marketing cooperative. The old man who stamped the tickets was at the door.

After buying the bicycle, He Yuzhu got on it, put one leg on the ground to support himself, and waited for his sister Yushui to sit on the back seat.

He Yushui's head was buzzing all the way, and she felt like this morning was just a dream.

Her silly brother, He Yuzhu, actually bought a 28-inch truck?

You have to know that in this era, the 13-inch bicycle was a powerful weapon, on the same level as today's sports cars.

They're all convertible!

He Yuzhu rode his bicycle and took his sister straight to Kaorou Wan, which is also a famous old restaurant in the city.

Quanjude is most famous for its roast duck, and Kaorouwan is most famous for its barbecue.

Xu Gangzuo is the host today, and the guests who came include Liang Youan, Fang Zisen, Huo Kai and Meng Xinglang.

Huo Kai is the son of Director Sun of the Women's Federation, and his father is a high-ranking official. Meng Xinglang is the son of the vice-principal of Red Star Middle School, and his father is also a high-ranking official.

These five people all grew up in the same compound. Their parents had a good relationship, so naturally their generation would not be bad either.

Huo Kai and Meng Xinglang are both lively and eccentric people. Both of them are the second children in their families and do not have the airs of children from wealthy families.

After a brief introduction, the waiter brought up plates of meat, showed them to everyone, and then took them down to have the chefs in the kitchen grill them.

"Kaizi, Xingxing, this is the He Yuzhu I told you about. Zhuzi, that's his sister Yushui."

As Xu Gang spoke, he poured wine for everyone present:

"There are only two of us at home, and we live a carefree life. I'll go to his house for dinner when I have nothing to do.

If I don’t mention anything else, Zhuzi’s cooking skills are definitely this.”

While speaking, he also gave He Yuzhu a thumbs up.

After saying that, he waved to the waiter, asked for two bottles of Beibingyang soda, and said to He Yushui:

"Sister, eat as much as you can. We are all your brothers here, so don't be polite to us."

"Haha, then I won't be polite. You guys talk and I'll eat."

Xu Gang and Liang Youan often went to the courtyard, and He Yushui was familiar with them.

"Come on, let's go first."

Liang Youan suggested that everyone stand up and drink together before sitting down.

After eating two bites of food, Huo Kai picked up the bottle and filled it with wine for himself and He Yuzhu, raised his glass and said:

"Brother Zhuzi, although this is the first day we meet, since you can play with Gangzi and Xiaoanzi, we are the same kind of people.

Brother, I work at the Grain Bureau. If you have any problems in the future, just let me know and I will definitely do what I can."

"Oh, the Grain Bureau is a good unit. I will definitely trouble you more in the future."

He Yuzhu and Huo Kai clinked their glasses and drank the wine in their glasses in one gulp. Then they said something with a smile, and everyone at the table immediately laughed.

That’s a great thing to say: I will definitely trouble you a lot in the future.

"I work at the supply and marketing cooperative. Come visit me often."

Meng Xinglang poured more wine to toast, and He Yuzhu drank it all in one gulp. Then he smiled and continued:

"Are there any discounts on things?"

Meng Xinglang was stunned at first, then he reacted, waved his hand, and said indifferently:

"I'm your brother, so I'll definitely give you a discount, even a broken bone!"

"Hahaha……"

Several people burst into laughter again. Even He Yushui, who was busy eating, couldn't help laughing.

Meng Xinglang glanced at He Yushui and his heart skipped a beat. He felt that when this girl smiled, it was as if he had seen her somewhere before.

However, since it was their first meeting, he didn't ask much.

"I work in a steel mill, and the only thing I can show off is my cooking skills. You can do whatever you want."

He Yuzhu finally poured himself another glass of wine, said these two sentences and then died in one breath.

After a few drinks, the men had more topics to talk about. Liang Youan talked about some of his past experiences with Mr. Xu.

According to the old man, when he first met Liang Youan, the boy was not even as tall as his knee. He was surrounded by a group of old men, but he didn't want anyone and just hugged old man Xu's thigh and cried.

Mr. Xu had no choice but to carry him around.

The old man was already in his thirties at that time. He was lucky to survive the hail of bullets holding such a little kid.

Liang Youan spoke well, and the events of the past were still vivid in their minds. As they listened, they seemed to see again that difficult and turbulent period.

Even He Yushui, who was standing beside him, had a strange look in his eyes.

After Liang Youan finished speaking, Huo Kai and Meng Xinglang talked about a few interesting things that happened at work, and the atmosphere became lively again.

He Yuzhu was not polite and found a chance to ask:

"My sister is a sophomore in high school this year. She wants to find a reliable teacher to give her extra lessons so that she can go to college. Does anyone have any ideas for this?"

After hearing what he said, Xu Gang and the other three all looked at Meng Xinglang.

"My mother works at Red Star Middle School. I'll ask you about this when I get back."

Meng Xinglang did not refuse and agreed immediately: "I will go to the steel mill to find you when I have the letter."

"Well, I won't say thank you. When I'm free tomorrow, I'll invite you to my house and cook you a good meal."

He Yuzhu nodded and said something, and Fang Zisen immediately started to make a noise:

"No, no, we have to eat together. We can't just invite Meng Xinglang alone."

"Get lost, I'm the one who asked me to do something, what does it have to do with you?"

Meng Xinglang immediately quit. He and Huo Kai had been planning this dinner for a long time.

These days, when Mr. Xu was playing chess with his grandfather, he kept talking about meeting a good chef, and his grandfather mentioned it several times.

In fact, for the older generation, as long as they can fill their stomachs, they don’t really care whether the food is delicious or not.

The main thing is that Mr. Xu looks much healthier than before.

They are all old comrades from that era. When they were young, they could rush forward fearlessly, but their bodies have broken down as they got older.

The old men say that they have accepted their fate as they are old and useless, but in their hearts they must still be hoping that they can regain their former glory one day.

Especially, everyone was originally in the same situation, with back pain and leg tiredness, unable to do anything, and nothing tasted good. Why did you, Old Xu, suddenly start shaking?

Not only did his complexion look better, his appetite also improved, and his legs and feet became stronger.

Damn it, if you were ten years younger, I would beat your head into a dog's head.

Therefore, younger generations like Huo Kai and Meng Xinglang can only find ways to make the elderly live more comfortably.

Since He Yuzhu agreed to cook a delicious meal for him, Meng Xinglang prepared to let him go over to his house to cook.

"Xingxing, don't think we don't know what you are up to. Let me tell you, everyone is bringing back midnight snacks from the courtyard.

If you don't follow the rules, we won't be cruel to you!"

Fang Zisen was the first to speak. Among the old men in the several families, their family had the worst health. He was thinking about how to ask He Yuzhu to come over and cook a meal.

"If you ask me, you guys shouldn't go to all that trouble. Just find a big table, sit down together, and let my brother cook a good meal, right?"

He Yushui knew in her heart that this was the only cooking skill her silly brother could show off.

The people in front of me are from the street office, the grain bureau, and the supply and marketing cooperative. They must come from well-off families.

Isn't it just because of his silly brother's cooking skills that people put aside their status and made friends with them?
