Siheyuan: I have a small world

"Mom, let me show you something good."

"What is it? It's so mysterious. Hey, it's quite heavy. Hey, why does it smell like meat..."

Chen Chunhua put the broom aside, clapped her hands, took it and weighed it, but suddenly her hand stopped because she smelled the smell of barbecue.

This made her expression change, and she quickly put the leaves on the table. After opening the leaves, she found a pile of roasted meat wrapped inside.

"You naughty kid, tell me, where did this come from? Did you steal it from someone else's house? Otherwise, why did you get back this meat in less than twenty minutes after going out? Do you know that stealing This much meat is illegal. If you are sued, you might go to jail. Send it back to me quickly while time is short, hurry up."

When Chen Chunhua saw so much meat, he immediately put the meat on the table in a hurry, then closed the door, slapped and twisted it and cursed in a low voice at Wang Yu.

"Mom, don't worry, I brought this meat from Sanyang. The time I went out before, I went to dig holes in the mountains to catch rabbits with them. I was sick before, so they couldn't find me and they didn't dare. I came to my house to ask, and this time I caught a few rabbits and a wild boar. The rabbits are my supplies, so feel free to eat them."

While Wang Yu comforted his mother Chen Chunhua, he wondered why he had only been in his mother's mouth for twenty minutes after being out for four hours.

However, the clock at home was placed in the back room and could not be read for the time being. He had to quickly comfort his anxious old mother.

"You are hanging out with them again. If your father finds out, he will break your legs." When Chen Chunhua heard that the meat was taken from Sanyang, the anxious look on his face faded, but he still couldn't help it. He slapped Wang Yu and yelled.

"hey-hey."

Wang Yu did not refute, Sanyang was the three brothers who lived in a large courtyard in Tiedokou Lane, which was seven or eight lanes away from their Nanluogu Lane. They were also famous gangsters in the neighborhood. They made no big mistakes, but kept making small ones, from childhood to adulthood. A role model of a naughty child who is not lovable.

They and Wang Yu had never known each other before. After Wang Yu graduated from junior high school, he had no job and spent a lot of time working outside. Coupled with his extraordinary skills, he gradually became familiar with them.

He entered the factory because his father didn't want him to fool around outside.

Now it makes sense to use them as an excuse.

After working in another world for four hours, he was a little tired. After dealing with his mother, he went into the house to take a nap and rest.

However, he first went to his parents' room.

But the result made him even more confused.

Because the clock on the wall showed the time at twelve twenty-three.

Their family usually eats after 11:30.

Even if he didn't pay attention to the specific time he left, it wasn't only twelve twenty-three?

Is there a time gap between that other world and the earth?

Wang Yu returned to his room with doubts.

The opportunity to pass through today has run out, so I can only continue to explore slowly.

Chapter 3: Courtyard Meeting, Don’t Speak So Loud!

In the evening, my father Wang reported that my brothers and sisters were all home.

Seeing the rabbit meat that Wang Yu brought back, his father Wang Bao just said to pay attention to the impact and don't make mistakes. Then he nodded at Lao San and the other children, telling them not to go out and talk nonsense, and then started to eat.

Now that the rations have been reduced, the children in the family rarely see meat and fish, and the few hungry ones are a little malnourished. In the past few days, Wang Bao used various means to bring food and game to the house, which made the family look better.

It’s hard to get food now, let alone meat.

therefore.

Even if he knew that Wang Yu was hanging out with the three Sanyang brothers again, he wouldn't be able to say anything.

Because if it weren't for the meat Wang Yu brought back, Wang Bao would have wanted to go out and get some more food.

At this time of year, as long as you don't break the law and can get some food or meat, it's your ability, and there's nothing to be criticized for.

After all, the meat is rotten in his house. More than thirty kilograms of rabbit meat is enough for the children to supplement their nutrition.

Although the Wang family is not a wealthy family, their mother, Chen Chunhua, an intellectual from a scholarly family, has a very good family tradition. They have a rule of eating silently and sleeping silently, so when eating, everyone eats in silence and no one talks.

"Bang bang bang!"

"Old Wang, let's have a meeting in the courtyard after dinner."

When the family closed the door and ate meat secretly, there was a knock on the door suddenly, and the voice of the elder Yi Zhonghai from the opposite side came in.

"understood."

When Wang Bao heard this, he didn't get up to open the door and agreed directly through the door. After all, the family was eating meat and it would be bad if Yi Zhonghai saw it.

As an old resident of this courtyard, Wang Bao knew Yi Zhonghai's character.

In the past, I could politely refuse some people's begging for food on the grounds that Wang Yu was seriously ill and needed meat to supplement his nutrition.

But now that Wang Yu's body has almost recovered, this excuse can no longer be used.

It's difficult for everyone now, and many families can't even get food intermittently. If Yi Zhonghai knew that his family could still eat meat, he would let his family share some of the meat with other neighbors in the courtyard.

He, Wang Bao, is not a bad person. His own children are so hungry that they look yellow and skinny, but he has no interest in helping other people's families.

Even the meat we eat now is not heated and is eaten cold.

Otherwise, once the meat is heated, it’s hard to say whether other people will smell it, but the Jia family next door will definitely smell it.

There is an old pious woman like Jia Zhang in the Jia family, so she will be targeted. Although it will not have any impact on her family, she will definitely be disgusted.

As a neighbor of the Jia family, Wang Yu knows this very well.

When he came back from the hospital, he heard the old godmother muttering behind her back that she must have done nothing good to be struck by lightning.

It was his mother, Chen Chunhua, who cursed a few words before shutting up.

Later, when his family's food standard improved, Jia and Zhang asked Bangge to beg for meat, which was even more despising.

But because Jia Zhang was a widow, his family couldn't say much.

After all, there is a lot of trouble at the widow's door.

Outside the door, Yi Zhonghai saw the Wang family eating with the door closed. He pushed it open without even pushing it, indicating that it was plugged in. He didn't think much about it. In these years, everyone is like this when eating, for fear of others coming. Eat and drink at home.

A little less food may starve to death. No one dares to let others eat and drink at home unless they bring their own food.

Wang Bao listened attentively and noticed Yi Zhonghai's footsteps walking away, and immediately said to his wife Chen Chunhua, Wang Yu and other children.

"Eat quickly and rinse your mouth well after eating so that no one can smell the smell of meat.

Also, you, the third brother, are waiting for a meeting to stay at home. You are not allowed to go out tonight. Even if you go to the countryside tomorrow, you are not allowed to talk about eating meat to outsiders. Otherwise, if your second brother gets meat in the future, he will not give it to you. You guys have eaten, do you understand? "

"Dad, don't worry. I won't go out. I will do my homework at home later, and I won't tell anyone about eating meat." After hearing his father's serious warning, Wang Zhou, the third child, quickly chewed the meat in his mouth a few times. , responded by swallowing it whole.

"Dad, we listen to you."

The fourth child, Wang Yun, the fifth child, Wang Xue, and the sixth child, Wang Jing, all responded with their guarantees.

Children of this era are precocious and know the seriousness of their family's meat-eating being known by others, so they all nod quickly.

Wang Bao nodded, looked at his wife Chen Chunhua and said.

"You can watch the brothers and sisters at home later, while the second child and I will go."

"Okay, I'll watch at home."

Chen Chunhua also knew that the matter of the meat could not be revealed. He had to wait until the more than thirty kilograms of meat were eaten. Even if the children leaked it, it could be said that the head of the family and his second son went to the countryside to hunt hares in the mountains of their hometown on their days off. Not much meat.

Wang Yu, who was sitting next to him, didn't say anything. Instead, he quickly drank the wild vegetable soup from the bowl, preparing to witness the meeting in the legendary Qingman Courtyard.

At this time, it was still several years before the plot of the courtyard in later generations began, and nothing happened to Jia Dongxu.

In addition, everyone is having a hard time this year, so it would be good to have a meeting once a month at most.

this time.

I don’t know if it was Silly Zhu who caused trouble or Xu Damao.

He said he was looking forward to their performance.

After all, in this era, there were no mobile phones or TVs to entertain him. After dinner, he was very bored. He either played cards with the people in the courtyard or went to bed early to create humans.

Card playing, an entertainment activity that consumes physical and mental energy, has basically disappeared this year.

After all, if everyone doesn’t have enough to eat or drink, how can they have time for entertainment?

Meetings in this courtyard have become the biggest entertainment activities in the courtyard.

It can also be said that, apart from Jia and Zhang, Shazhu and Xu Damao brought the most fun to everyone.

boom!

Wang Yu saw his father Wang Bao put down the bowl and chopsticks, and he immediately drank the remaining soup in the bowl, wiped his mouth, and looked at his father.

"go!"

My father was as frugal with words as ever. When he saw Wang Yu finished eating, he stood up and walked out.

"okay!"

Wang Yu stood up and picked up a long bench to sit on later.

And his mother also stood up and walked to the door, hoping to wait for the two of them to go out and close the door immediately.

When Wang Yu and his father Wang reported out, they saw that more than a dozen people had gathered in the courtyard and were sitting around a square table.

"Don't worry about anything for a while. Don't talk too much." Seeing these neighbors, Wang Bao whispered.

"Dad, I know."

Wang Yu knew that his father was worried because of his somewhat reckless personality in the past.

Wang Bao raised his eyebrows when he saw that his second son didn't talk back this time and just complied honestly. He secretly thought that the second son had been struck by lightning and had his gender changed?

Shaking his head, it was a good thing that his temper had stabilized, so he didn't think about it anymore.

The two men walked to the crowd and placed the stools next to Uncle Zhou.

"Uncle Zhou, I went to the hospital today. The doctor said that I have almost recovered. I would like to thank you for your help in recuperating my body, otherwise I would not be able to recover so quickly."

Uncle Zhou is a resident of the backyard. He is an old Chinese medicine practitioner who works as a doctor in the sixth hospital nearby. He only has one grandson left with him. His son and daughter-in-law heard that he was a university teacher, but he disappeared last year, leaving his grandson to be raised by Uncle Zhou.

Like the Wang family, Uncle Zhou keeps a low profile in the courtyard. He doesn't get involved in disputes or cause trouble, and just lives his own life.

"Hey, you are in good health, and you are worthy of being a martial arts practitioner. The conditioning prescription I prescribed for you can only play a supporting role."

Uncle Zhou waved his hand and said.

"Lao Zhou, do you know the reason why Lao Yi held this meeting?"

After the two men sat down, Wang Bao first greeted the neighbors and then asked Uncle Zhou in a low voice for information.

There is no separation between medicine and martial arts. The Wang family inherits Baji Quan, and there are naturally many bumps and bumps. They also know some inheritance of traditional Chinese medicine, but most of them are injuries caused by falls and falls, which is not as good as an authentic traditional Chinese medicine doctor like Uncle Zhou. .

The Wang family practices martial arts, and when injured, they will seek help from Uncle Zhou for treatment. They go back and forth, and the two families have the best friendship in the hospital.

"I heard news that a new black market has opened nearby tonight. I heard that it has a big background. In order to attract people to trade, some grains will be sold. I told Lao Yi and asked him to notify every household in the compound and let's go together. It’s a rare opportunity to buy some food. We can’t do this alone, we can only let the courtyard work together, so I won’t notify you separately.”

Uncle Zhou introduced the relevant situation in a low voice.

When Wang Bao heard this, his eyes lit up and he didn't say much. He just patted Uncle Zhou's shoulder lightly to express his understanding.

Food is not like meat. Food is a necessity. Anyone with channels and connections will share it in the courtyard, and everyone will stay together for warmth.

Wang Yu listened at the side and said nothing.

But I knew in my heart that when I went out to buy food, the Wang family was bound to have someone, and Shazhu, the god of war in the courtyard, was definitely going to go, and the only ones left were the strong men in the courtyard.

There was no other way. In the courtyard, they were the only family that learned martial arts, especially his father Wang Bao. Although he was not very impressive, he was a master of hidden power. When he was around, no one dared to stab them, including Sha Zhu. He never provoked the Wang family. On the contrary, they had a good relationship with them.

No, as soon as Wang Yu sat down, Sha Zhu squeezed over and whispered.

"Xiaoyu is feeling much better now. Will you go with me to buy food tonight?"

When Wang Yu heard this, he knew that Sha Zhu had received the news from the first master in advance.

Silly Zhu can also learn Bajiquan, but he didn't learn it from the Wang family. However, he is not good at studying, but he is good at wrestling. With his brute strength, not many people can deal with him.

But this does not include the Wang family and his son. Now that Wang Yu has just started Bajiquan Mingjin, he can easily challenge six or seven people. Although Silly Zhu can defeat a few people due to his brute force, he will definitely not be able to defeat Wang Yu.

What's more, his father has fallen into An Jin.

You can imagine how strong his father's force is.

just.

It's not easy to learn martial arts, and it's even harder to improve, not to mention it's even harder now that you don't even have enough to eat.

After all, practicing martial arts consumes more food than ordinary people, and you must also eat meat for nourishment!

This trip to buy food must be supported by the force of the Wang family, so that each family can go there with confidence.
