Siheyuan: abandoning moral qualities and enjoying an immoral life

"The fish is the bighead carp you bought. Four or five pounds of fish meat is enough for me to eat for two weeks!"

"Okay, then you eat it slowly by yourself, and be careful not to get fish bones stuck in your throat."

Seeing that Abin had nothing else to do, Wang Hongtao stopped disturbing him.

When I walked out to the front yard and passed by Yan's house, I could hear an argument inside.

"Everyone, go back and sit down. We've already had dinner. We have to save this soup for tomorrow night!"

"Dad, please let us taste a little. This soup smells delicious!"

"Just a little bit, just dip the chopsticks in it."

"Yes, Dad, this strong smell will be gone by tomorrow. I think we'd better share it today!"

……

Although it is said that poverty brings misfortune to couples, the Yan family is going too far.

Shaking his head and ignoring it, Wang Hongtao was about to walk out of the yard.

Did you forget something?

Oh, right, the quilt!

The quilt cover and cotton batting are not prepared yet!

Last time, Qin Huairu seemed to be talking about Xueru Silk Shop on Qianmen Street?

Then just walk...

Before leaving, Wang Hongtao went back home again, comforted Yu Li, the sister-in-law of the gold medal housekeeping company, and told her not to wait for him and to go back when she was done with her work. Only then did Wang Hongtao head for Qianmen Street.

……

When he reached Qianmen Street, Wang Hongtao looked all the way but couldn't find the so-called Xueru Silk Shop, so he decided to ask someone.

Just then, an ugly flat-faced man pulling a rickshaw came towards them.

The man walked slowly with a hunched back. He had a dead fish face and big eye bags that were swollen like a goldfish. He looked weird and exactly like Sha Zhu.

Fortunately it’s not completely dark yet, otherwise I would have been scared away by him.

Wait a minute, why did I suddenly think of Shazhu?

This ugly guy with a flat face, fish face, and big eye bubbles...

Isn’t this He Da... No, this is Cai Quanwu!

"Hollow neck?" Wang Hongtao blurted out when the two met.

The ugly flat-faced man stopped the rickshaw, turned around and looked at Wang Hongtao, wondering, "Sir, you called me?"

"Your name is Cai Quanwu?" Wang Hongtao asked tentatively.

The ugly flat-faced man showed a hint of surprise, then forced out a smile that was uglier than crying: "I am Cai Quanwu, what do you want to talk to me about?"

"Oh, I heard that there is a man named Cai Quanwu who is the most experienced in Qianmen Street. He is nicknamed 'living map' and can take you to a place as long as you say the name. They are talking about you, right?" Wang Hongtao was also talking nonsense.

Cai Quanwu actually took it seriously.

He took off the towel from around his neck and wiped his face, then forced out an emergency smile: "Thank you, Master."

"Where are you going? I'll take you there right away!"

"I heard someone say there's a Xueru Silk Shop in Qianmenlou that's pretty good, and the stuff there is pretty good, but I just can't find the place. Could you please take me there?"

With that, Wang Hongtao got on the rickshaw.

"Master, you are planning to go to Xueru Silk Shop. It's not far. Just go straight along this street, turn right at the next intersection, and walk another fifty or sixty meters. There are several silk shops there, and they are easy to spot."

Cai Quanwu was very honest and directly pointed out the location of Xueru Silk Shop.

"It's okay, just pull me over. I think you're a very honest person and I want to chat with you for a while."

"How much does it cost to take me there? I'll pay."

Cai Quanwu scratched his head and said, "Just give me 1 cent. The starting price is 2 cents, but I've never gotten this close."

"Then it's two cents. The rules can't be broken." Wang Hongtao stuffed two cents into the pocket.

It's not that he has so much money that he is showing off. He drives the cart for a living, and the extra cents are used to gather information.

According to the timeline, it is now 61. Tsai Quan-wu should have married Xu Hui-zhen long ago. How could he still be pulling a rickshaw as a job? So there must be something unknown going on here.

"Brother Cai, are you familiar with that pub at the corner of the street?"

"Tavern? Sir, are you talking about the one where the proprietress's surname is Xu?" Cai Quan asked while jogging.

Wang Hongtao nodded hurriedly, while observing Cai Quanwu's reaction: "Yes, the one you mentioned."

"Well, of course I am familiar with it!"

"Boss Xu is a good man. Other taverns won't let people like us in because they think we are dirty and can't buy much. Only Boss Xu doesn't mind. He won't chase us away even if we only buy half a cup of wine." When Cai Quanwu talked about Xu Huizhen, there was no other expression on his face except yearning.

Now Wang Hongtao finally understood that Cai Quanwu and Xu Huizhen were just an ordinary shopkeeper and customer relationship, not even friends.

But looking at Cai Quanwu's current look, it is very likely that he really has feelings for Xu Hui.

"Then do you know how old Boss Xu is and whether she is married?" Wang Hongtao continued to ask.

Cai Quanwu's expression froze for a moment, then he quickly returned to normal: "She's probably around 25 or 26, married, and has a 6 or 7-year-old daughter. I heard her say that her husband was hit and killed by a car, so I guess it's true, right? I don't think anyone would joke about this."

"So that's what's going on? Thank you, Brother Cai."

"You're welcome, sir."

As they were talking, they arrived at Xueru Silk Shop.

Cai Quanwu stopped the rickshaw and said, "We have arrived. The one with the red sign in front is Xueru Silk Shop. It's the one with the largest storefront in the middle."

Chapter 148 First Meeting with Chen Xueru

Wang Hongtao got off the bus and saw three silk shops at a glance, in order:

Suzhou Silk Shop;

Xiuzhen Silk Shop;

Xueru Silk Shop.

Among them, Xueru Silk Shop has the largest storefront and the most eye-catching signboard, so it can be said that people lived a comfortable life no matter what era it was, otherwise so many silk shops could not be supported.

But these had nothing to do with Wang Hongtao. As it was getting dark, Wang Hongtao took out two dimes and handed them to Cai Quanwu: "Brother Cai, thank you for your help."

"Thank you for your praise, sir. We, the working class people, rely on this job to make a living. How dare I say it's a bother? I should thank you for your support!" Cai Quanwu has met all kinds of people, so he can speak polite words casually.

Wang Hongtao smiled and waved at him, then walked towards Xueru Silk Shop.

Compared to someone he didn't know, he was more willing to trust Qin Huairu's recommendation.

When I walked into Xueru Silk Shop, the proprietress who was originally sitting on a high stool behind the counter immediately came out to greet me.

"Hello sir, welcome to Xueru Silk Shop. I'm Chen Xueru, the owner of this shop. I'm wondering how I can help you."

The proprietress smiled at Wang Hongtao, looking friendly and not awkward.

Chen Xueru had seen everything that had just happened, and that was why she looked up to the young man who entered the store.

Despite the current environment, she was able to run the Xueru Silk Shop so prosperously, which was inseparable from her ability to identify people.

The young man in front of him was tall and handsome. Although he was wearing only an ordinary driver's work clothes, it looked very proper and fit him perfectly.

……

Chen Xueru? (with pictures) See comments:

Hearing the self-introduction of the woman in front of him, Wang Hongtao quickly moved his gaze from the bright red high heels upwards.

Above the smooth and delicate feet is a pair of beautiful legs in flesh-colored stockings, and above that is a dark blue and red floral cheongsam with a slit that reaches right in the middle of the thigh and the knee. Inside is mysterious, deep and hazy, making people want to find out what's inside.

Although Chen Xueru's figure is a little thin, she looks quite charming against the cheongsam. Her waist is slim and her hips are raised, while her upper body is like slender branches bearing rich fruits.

With her hair half tied up in a bun, delicate makeup on her face, ruby ​​pendants on her earlobes, and lips painted in a sexy bright red hue, she looks extremely fashionable at first glance.

Chen Xueru's eyes and eyebrows are full of the prettiness of her age, and her expression is full of feminine charm.

Chen Xueru was a little displeased to see Wang Hongtao looking at her like this, so she covered her mouth and coughed lightly to remind him.

Wang Hongtao realized that he had failed and quickly explained: "Well, I've never seen Boss Chen dress so well. I failed temporarily, I hope Boss Chen can forgive me."

If you compliment a woman on her beauty, she would be considered a lecher in those days. But if you compliment someone on their fashion sense like Wang Hongtao did, it would be more acceptable. (Of course, the most important thing is to look at the person. If you stare at someone like Shazhu, you will never get over it. His shy and bashful expression is too classic. If you don't believe me, you can post a picture.)

Sure enough, after Wang Hongtao's righteous explanation, Chen Xueru at least half believed it.

"Excuse me, sir. What is your name? May I ask if you know anything about dressing?" Chen Xueru asked half-doubtfully, although she was already half-believing in her heart.

"Well... I know a little, a little. Of course, I can't compare with Boss Chen. You are the professional when it comes to dressing." Wang Hongtao's half-flattering way of speaking made Chen Xueru very comfortable.

As I said, complimenting someone for being good-looking is really complimenting, but complimenting someone like Shazhu is just being a hooligan.

Although it is a bit unfair to Shazhu, this is the fact.

"Oh, then what do you think of my outfit?"

Chen Xueru was beautiful and was the hostess of a large silk shop. Naturally, she was often approached by people, but few were as energetic and talkative as Wang Hongtao.

The reason why she asked this question was to determine whether Wang Hongtao was a pervert or not;

There was also the intention of testing Wang Hongtao. After all, judging from external conditions alone, Wang Hongtao was definitely one of the most outstanding people she had ever met.

Now she is competing with her best friend Xu Huizhen. They are both best friends and competitors, and they are just sisters on the surface.

Although the two sisters seem to have a good relationship, in fact, they are both trying hard to outdo each other.

"Okay, since Boss Chen has invited me, I will offer my humble opinion."

With the excuse of looking at Chen Xueru seriously, Wang Hongtao's eyes became more presumptuous, scanning Chen Xueru from top to bottom and then from bottom to top.

The reason why he did this was naturally not just to satisfy his eyes, the most important thing was to buy time and sort out his thoughts.

He doesn’t know how to dress, but he’s a wallflower!

Isn’t the evaluation given by Brother Tongzi more fair than that of any fashion guru?

When he got closer, Wang Hongtao could smell a fresh and elegant scent. Needless to say, he knew it was coming from Chen Xueru.

Chen Xueru is rich and has many connections, and most importantly, she dares to use them on herself.

Not to mention, it has been about a month since the 1960s, and this is the first time Wang Hongtao has smelled the perfume on a woman. It is really intoxicating.

Looking at Chen Xueru, who was like a beauty in sexy cheongsam, Wang Hongtao couldn't help but bow slightly to show his respect.

Now she is undecided between Manager Liao of the public office (who has better conditions but is married) and the street office cadre Fan Jinyou (who is unmarried but feels that his conditions are not as good as hers).]

[Overall evaluation: Amorous and somewhat overbearing, daring to love and hate and somewhat aggressive, strong-willed, high-spirited, with a strong desire for control and suspicion. A woman who is smart in work but silly in love. Summary: High IQ, but low EQ. ]

With this information plus the information he got from film and television dramas, Wang Hongtao immediately felt confident.

He smiled confidently at first: "In my opinion, first of all, Boss Chen, you are definitely a good store manager. Whether it is maintaining the business or expanding it, as long as you want, you can do it."

After hearing what Wang Hongtao said, Chen Xueru just smiled politely and made an expression that said "please continue", because there are many people who know this, and it is not surprising that Wang Hongtao can say this.

"But what I'm going to say next might be a little hard to hear. I wonder if Boss Chen wants to continue listening?"

"Speaking of which, as long as your words make sense, it doesn't matter whether they sound difficult or not."

"Then I'll continue..."
