Siheyuan: Fishing for All Things.

Sha Zhu swallowed his saliva and asked cautiously, "Would you be so kind as to buy me a drink?"

"Look at you, you coward. It's just a fight. What's the big deal?" Lin Shaowen said disdainfully.

"I'm not a coward." Sha Zhu suddenly became angry.

"I feel like you're still a man in this yard. The wine and food are ready. Do you want to drink?" Lin Shaowen leaned against the door frame and said, "Could it be... are you really scared?"

"Coward?" Sha Zhu stood up and said loudly, "In my eyes, there is no word like 'coward'. It's just drinking. Let's go."

"That's more like it." Lin Shaowen smiled.

Chapter 9 Rainwater Little Loli

"No, is this how you ask people to drink?"

Sha Zhu looked at the pork on the chopping board with a frown on his face.

"Who are you?" Lin Shaowen asked seriously.

"Well?"

Sha Zhu was stunned for a moment, and after a long while he stammered, "I am... He Yuzhu."

"You are the heir of authentic Tan family cuisine, Chef He of the steel mill." Lin Shaowen said with great sorrow, "I sincerely invite you to dinner, but looking at the entire Nanluoguxiang, who can cook better than you?"

"That's true." Sha Zhu said happily.

"So, I've prepared everything and am waiting for you to cook." Lin Shaowen sighed.

"That makes sense. That makes sense. College students are more educated."

Sha Zhu understood everything and even gave Lin Shaowen a thumbs up.

"But I don't know how to cook, so the side dishes may not be well-matched. Master He, please take a look..."

"Hey, you don't have to worry about these, just wait for dinner." He Yuzhu waved his hand generously.

"Okay, then I'll wait to admire Master He's craftsmanship."

Lin Shaowen gave some instructions and went back to his room to lie down. He wanted to enjoy the cool air in the yard.

But there was no furniture in the whole house except a bed that was about to fall apart.

Sha Zhu is only 23 or 24 years old, and he doesn't have that many ideas. After being praised by Lin Shaowen, he was like a chicken with blood injected. He immediately ran home to get his own tools and prepared to fight.

"Shazhu, where are you going?" Yan Bugui asked curiously.

"Lin Shaowen invited me to drink, so I'll prepare something." Sha Zhu said with a smile.

"No, Lin Shaowen invites you to drink, and you have to prepare the food yourself?" Yan Bugui was stunned. What kind of routine was this?

"Looking at the entire Nanluoguxiang, whose dishes are as good as mine?" Sha Zhu said proudly, "We are all scholars. Look how sensible Lin Shaowen is. Third uncle, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but when it comes to judging people, you really can't compare to Lin Shaowen."

After saying this, he left, leaving Yan Bugui disheveled in the wind.

It's strange, this idiot doesn't have a good memory.

After getting beaten twice yesterday, he actually had to go and cook for Lin Shaowen today?

West wing.

Along with the sounds of pots and pans, a fragrance filled the entire courtyard.

"Who is it? How dare you eat meat during such a festival?" Liu Haizhong shouted angrily.

"That's right, we can't live like this anymore?" The second aunt also echoed.

Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu sniffed greedily. They tried hard to recall the last time they ate meat, but they couldn't remember.

Yi Zhonghai in the middle courtyard also smelled the aroma of meat and couldn't help but clench his cheeks.

Even though he was an eighth-level worker and earned 99 yuan a month, he really didn't dare to eat as much meat as he wanted.

This money is saved for retirement.

"Who is eating meat?" Jia Zhang jumped up instantly.

"It came from the backyard." Qin Huairu said softly.

"Damn you, you idiot, you actually dared to eat meat, you deserve to be single for the rest of your life."

Jia Zhang kept cursing, but saliva kept flowing from her mouth.

"Dad, I want to eat meat." Bang Geng shouted.

"roll."

Jia Dongxu roared angrily, scaring Banggeng so much that he burst into tears.

"Why are you yelling at the child?" Jia Zhang hugged Banggeng in her arms and comforted him, "Don't cry, Banggeng. Ask your mother to buy some meat tomorrow and we'll make dumplings."

"Mom, I have no money." Qin Huairu said in a low voice.

"You have no money? Where did you spend your money?" Jia Zhang asked with wide eyes.

"You only give me ten yuan a month, and we have four people to feed...where is the money left?" Qin Huairu said aggrievedly.

Jia Dongxu is a first-level worker with a monthly salary of 27.5.

She was only given ten yuan a month for living expenses, and the rest was saved by Jia Zhang.

"How dare you talk back?" Jia Zhang pinched Qin Huairu and scolded her, "If my family didn't want you, you would still be digging in the countryside. You've grown wings now..."

"Mom, I didn't." Qin Huairu shouted with red eyes.

"Okay, stop arguing."

Jia Dongxu roared, threw down his chopsticks and lay down on the bed.

Compared to Lin Shaowen, he hated Sha Zhu more. Why did he eat meat for no reason? He made his family restless.

West wing.

Lin Shaowen leaned against the door frame with his arms folded across his chest, watching Sha Zhu cooking diligently, and his praise was as free as can be.

"Master He, it still has to be you."

"This dish is cooked just as well as the royal chef's."

"Master He, it's a waste of your talent to go to the cafeteria."

……

Sha Zhu also lost himself in the praises and worked very hard.

Less than half an hour.

The three dishes and one soup are really delicious.

Not a single pound of the two pounds of pork that Lin Shaowen took out was wasted, and Sha Zhu even added a lot of cabbage and seasonings himself.

"How is it? My craft is pretty good, right?" Sha Zhu wiped his hands, his face full of pride.

"You are this."

After giving a thumbs up, Lin Shaowen took out two teacups and filled them with wine.

"elder brother……"

A timid voice sounded in Lin Shaowen's yard.

Lin Shaowen looked sideways and saw a little girl standing there holding a schoolbag.

She was wearing a half-new grey top and black pants that had faded a little from washing. It looked like the clothes were worn by Sha Zhu.

"Brother, this is my sister He Yushui." Sha Zhu introduced hurriedly.

"Brother, who is this?" He Yushui pulled Sha Zhu's sleeve.

"Hello, my name is Lin Shaowen, and I'm a colleague of your brother."

Lin Shaowen waved to He Yushui, motioning her to come in.

If we really have to talk about normal people in this yard, He Yushui can be considered one of them. She is truly sober.

Her father ran off with a widow, and her brother was also entangled with the widow. So she moved to school and never came back. She married herself immediately after graduation and never came back.

"Brother Lin, are you a cook too?" He Yushui asked curiously.

“Yes, I’m a cook too.”

Lin Shaowen picked up a cut coconut from the ground and it appeared in his hand.

"Wow, this is a coconut." Sha Zhu said in surprise.

He had only seen this thing once, when he followed his father to help a wealthy family and saw someone drinking it.

"Good insight."

Lin Shaowen stuffed the coconut into He Yushui's hand and said, "Adults drink wine, and children drink beverages."

"Thank you, Brother Lin." He Yushui smiled sweetly.

"Girl, give me a sip." Sha Zhu rubbed his hands.

There was some reluctance in He Yushui's eyes, but she still handed over the coconut.

Sha Zhu didn't hesitate and took a few deep sips from the straw.

There weren't many waters in the coconut to begin with, so how could it withstand his guzzling? By the time the coconut returned to He Yushui's hands, no water could be poured out.

He Yushui's eyes suddenly turned red and she lowered her head with tears streaming down her face.

"Okay, I'll give you another one." Lin Shaowen took out another coconut from somewhere and stuffed it into her hand, "Don't give it to your brother this time."

"Thank you, Brother Lin." He Yushui immediately burst into laughter.

Lin Shaowen looked at her smile and couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth.

After all, he was still a child of fifteen or sixteen years old, and it was really fate that he was born in this era of material scarcity.

"Come on, brother, let's have one." Sha Zhu immediately picked up the wine glass.

"Go one."

Lin Shaowen clinked glasses with him and took a sip of wine.

It’s still Erguotou after all, nothing else, just strong.

Chapter 10: Husband-killing Fate

It wasn't dark yet.

After dinner, those who had nothing to do came out for a walk. Yan Bugui, Liu Haizhong and others wanted to see what delicious food Sha Zhu had eaten, but they came to find nothing.

Finally, they followed the smell and came to Lin Shaowen's yard.

At this time, He Yushui was holding a coconut and drinking from it in small sips.

Although she is small in stature, she has a big appetite. She ate two bowls of rice and three coconuts.

As for Silly Pillar.

As the saying goes, there are only wrong names, but no wrong nicknames.

After Lin Shaowen and I finished two bottles of Erguotou, we started shouting, "Lin Shaowen, you are a good person."

"Really?" Lin Shaowen smiled.

"So I have decided that Yu Shui will be your wife from now on."

puff!

The wine in Lin Shaowen's mouth suddenly sprayed out.

"Brother, what nonsense are you talking about?"

He Yushui was already a grown-up girl, and her face immediately blushed with embarrassment.

"No, no, there's a generation difference between them." Lin Shaowen smiled and waved his hands.

"What do you mean by generation difference?" Sha Zhu glared, "You are a few years younger than me, do you think you are my uncle?"

Pfft!
