Siheyuan: The Final Winner

  Chapter 75 Yu Haitang is straightforward and ignorant (Chapter 510 of the ten thousand words on the shelf)

  Go back to the yard.

   From far away, you can hear the crying of the middle courtyard's children.

  Jiang Pingan took the car to the house and parked it, thinking to himself:

   "Is this sticky dog ​​crying from hunger?"

  If Qin Huairu was here, with her temperament, she would have already been thinking of a way.

  Jia's family has poor popularity in the courtyard, but Qin Huairu is different, with an excellent mass base.

  As soon as she married into the courtyard, she pretended to be pitiful.

  When her mother-in-law scolded her, she didn't speak back.

   She only cares about washing and cooking, and also works when there are many people. It is very hard for others to see her.

  When others care about her, she just grits her teeth and smiles.

  Never talk about right and wrong at home, a standard good wife.

   Jia Dongxu beat her, but she just cried and never complained.

   When it's over, go to the courtyard, find a remote corner where many people can see it, and wipe away tears secretly.

  Not to mention a man, many women couldn't bear to see her like that.

  So, even if the Jia family has nothing to eat, as long as Qin Huairu steps forward, he can borrow some food for emergencies.

  The key is that Jia Zhang and Jia Dongxu haven't discovered Qin Huairu's ability yet, so keep an eye on her closely.

   She was not allowed to show her face in public. The last time the family ran out of food, it was Jia Dongxu who came forward.

   Finally let her go and let her go to Jiang Ping'an.

   But it was useless to wink at the blind man, how could Jiang Ping'an borrow their food?

  Qin Huai could not express his hardships, and did not dare to say anything more, so the whole family could only go to the countryside to suffer.

  Jiang Ping'an didn't go to the middle school to watch the sticks crying. It's normal for children to cry when they are hungry.

  The other residents in the yard won’t take a second look. My family can’t have enough to eat, so why care about others?

  Looking at the fire, it was about to go out, so Jiang Pingan quickly added charcoal to the stove.

   "I'll go to the countryside tomorrow, stay for two or three days, and come back the day before the payment."

   I have to go to the factory in the morning to get some extra money.

  Although it is not expected to purchase too many things, the preparation work cannot be left behind.

  In addition, this time I am going to the countryside, no matter what, I will send Qin Huairu away, and make some delicious living space.

  Although he is not short of oil and water to eat, but seeing so many fish, meat, and chicken in the space, he has long been hungry.

   "In the middle of next month, I'm going to the northeast. There are many old forests in the deep mountains..."

  I heard that the living conditions there are better. After all, there are big granaries in Jilin and HLJ.

   At worst, there are stick noodles to eat, and I don’t know if it’s true.

  I heard that Hebei, Shandong, Henan, AH, and Hubei all allocate rations from the Northeast to enter the customs for relief.

  Just as he was thinking about something, Mrs. Jia Zhang crept in.

   Now she is no longer unkempt, and after washing, she has regained her former neatness.

   I just lost a lot of weight, and my skin was darker, and I suffered a lot in the countryside.

  She carried two pairs of shoes, walked into the house, and stuffed them into Jiang Ping'an's arms expressionlessly.

   "Look carefully, they are all high-quality shoes, they are not worth changing, don't try to blackmail me again."

  Jiang Pingan checked the two pairs of shoes one by one, nodded and smiled:

   "You have a heart, these shoes, I am very satisfied!"

   "Also, it was my idea that the three uncles in the yard help your family. You have to remember this favor."

   If you help, you must say it clearly, even if you don’t have credit, you should make it out of nothing.

   Jia Zhang was surprised and said: "You still have such kindness?"

   "Hey! If you didn't give me a few pairs of shoes before, do you think I care about you?" Jiang Pingan sneered.

  Jia Zhang rolled her eyes, pursed her mouth and said:

   "Okay, I will remember this, and I will return your favor in the future."

   She dared to owe other people's favors, but Jiang Pingan's favors were not so easy to owe.

  She has suffered many losses from Jiang Ping'an's hands, and she is afraid that he will miss him again.

  Jiang Ping'an nodded, waved and said, "Just remember, let's go!"

   "Well, Jiang Ping'an, do you still have food at home?" Jia Zhangchi asked.

  Jiang Ping'an frowned and said, "You don't want to take advantage of my food, do you?

   "I'm so poor, can you still borrow my food ruthlessly?"

   "Come on, who doesn't know that Yi Zhonghai and He Yushui are helping you every month?" Jia Zhang pouted.

   "If you have food, you can lend me a few catties, borrow one and pay two back, so that you won't suffer."

  Jiang Pingan shook his head and said, "If you don't borrow it, I don't have enough food for myself."

   "Don't, shall I use shoes to change my line? Now in the yard, you are the only one who has food." Jia Zhang said anxiously.

  Jiang Ping'an didn't take it seriously and said, "I've already worn so many shoes, why do I need your shoes?"

   Then, he was quite curious: "By the way, how many shoes have you made? Seems like a lot!"

   "No, you stole all the pairs of shoes that have been stored over the years. They are really gone!" Mrs. Jia waved her hands hastily.

  Jiang Ping'an raised his eyebrows and stared, "You don't have shoes, so how dare you lend me food? You're very brave!"

   "No, there are more, no, really gone!" Jia Zhang almost cried anxiously.

  She was at a loss and wanted to borrow food, but she was afraid that Jiang Ping'an would be missed if she knew that she still had stock.

   But she had nothing else to exchange for food, and Jiang Pingan seemed to only like the shoes she made, which made her in a dilemma.

  Jiang Ping'an sighed and said: "Okay, I see you are so pitiful, and it's not hard for you."

   "I will lend you a catty of stick noodles for emergency, and you can get a pair of shoes to exchange."

   "You bargain too hard. A pair of shoes can be sold for at least two yuan!" Jia Zhang said with a frown.

   "Then take it out and exchange it with someone else!" Jiang Pingan said and was about to walk into the house.

   "In these days, even if you can get money, it's hard to get food stamps!"

  Ms. Jia Zhang hurriedly said: "Add some more, a catty of stick noodles can't even be exchanged for the cloth used to make shoes, it's too little!"

  Jiang Ping'an stopped and murmured, "I'll give you two catties at most. If you want to change it, you can change it or not, and if you don't change it, you will fall down!"

   "Change, I'll change!" Jia Zhang gritted her teeth and said, "I'll go get the cloth shoes right away!"

  After Mrs. Jia Zhang left, Jiang Pingan laughed and muttered:

   "There are advantages, why don't you take advantage of them, wait until you have taken out all your shoes, and then try to pay for your pension money!"

   Soon, Jia Zhang came over with another pair of shoes, with a scale and a rice bag in the other hand.

  Jiang Ping'an took the shoes and checked them again. Mrs. Jia and Zhang couldn't be fooled at this juncture.

  The shoes are fine.

  Jiang Ping'an didn't talk too much, and immediately divided up two catties of the stick noodles Yi Zhonghai gave him to Jia Zhang.

   "Save and eat, I will not be so kind next time, I have to exchange a catty of food for a pair of cloth shoes!"

  The food was put into the bag, and Jiazhang breathed a sigh of relief, and he could finally continue his life before the payment was closed.

   "In the future, even if you drink badly every day, I won't change it with you. Your heart is too dark!" Jia Zhang said with a dark face.

  Jiang Ping'an pursed his lips and said, "I hope you will still be so stubborn when you beg me!"

   "Huh!" Jia Zhang snorted, too lazy to argue with him, turned around and left with the food.

  Jiang Pingan frowned, touched his chin and thought:

   "How many shoes does Jia Zhang have saved? I have to ask Qin Huairu next time."

   "By the way, why do you rarely see Qin Huairu making shoes? Does she know how to do it?"

   "Hey, she seems to only do laundry and cooking in the yard, why does it feel like she is busy all day long!"

   "Does her house have so many things to wash? Does this woman use the sink as a workbench?"

  ———

   Wait for Jia Zhang to leave.

  Jiang Ping'an put all five newly obtained pairs of shoes into the space.

   "I haven't had to buy shoes for a long time." Jiang Ping'an was secretly happy.

  Cloth shoes, leather shoes, water shoes, liberation shoes, straw sandals, he has them all now.

   Among them, the water shoes and liberation shoes are labor insurance issued by the factory, and the straw sandals are bought by himself.

  A pair of cloth shoes was given by Lou Xiaoe, and she also gave a pair of leather shoes, which Jiang Ping'an usually doesn't want to wear.

  The other cloth shoes were all obtained from Mrs. Jia Zhang.

  He has been playing with Jia Zhang's idea for a long time.

  This old woman is lazy, but she is tight on her shoes.

   I didn’t see her sell it after she made it, so I don’t know why she kept it there.

  It was still early, and Jiang Ping'an was about to go out to use the bathroom.

  As soon as I arrived in the courtyard, I saw a strange girl head-on, looking left and right.

   There was no one in the courtyard. When she saw Jiang Ping'an, her eyes lit up and she hurried forward.

  Jiang Pingan looked at the girl a few times, and his eyes lit up.

   Not to mention, this girl is tall, with a pure and beautiful appearance, elegant and dignified temperament, and a slim figure.

  She has an oval face, delicate features, delicate skin, rosy in the white.

  The eyebrows are curved, the eyes are clear and bright, the nose is exquisite and small, and the lips are moist and red, delicate and shiny.

  When she smiled, she revealed two rows of tiny teeth, which were white, bright, and charming.

  She was wearing a blue padded jacket, her figure was invisible, and a scarf knitted with scarlet wool was wrapped around her neck.

   With a cut cut and glasses the size of a baby's fist, it adds a bit of sillyness.

  However, when those eyes rolled around, they covered up their stupidity again.

   Not only that, but Jiang Ping'an also saw a bit of shrewdness and pride from her.

   Without waiting for Jiang Ping'an to ask, the girl took the initiative to say:

   "Hello comrade, my name is Zhao Sumian, I am He Yushui's classmate, may I ask where she lives..."

  Before he finished speaking, Jiang Ping'an was surprised: "You are Zhao Sumian? Is your father's name Zhao Yuchu?"

   "Eh? You know my dad?" Zhao Su-Mian let out a little surprise and said unexpectedly.

  Jiang Ping'an laughed and said, "Haha, many residents in our courtyard are workers in the rolling mill."

   "Although your father is the director of the branch factory, he often goes to the main factory. It is estimated that there are not many people who don't know him!"

   "Uh, I didn't expect this." The girl choked for a moment, then tilted her head and said in doubt:

   "But even so, how do you know that I am her daughter?"

  Jiang Ping'an smiled and said, "I just had dinner with Uncle Zhao not long ago."

   "When we got back in his car, he talked about your family."

   "I told you to name your children in the order that you heard birds singing everywhere in Chunmian."

   "I memorize people's names, and I can easily remember them after hearing them only once."

   "I heard you introduce yourself just now, and I remembered it immediately, but I wasn't sure, so I asked."

   "Hee hee, so it's like this!" Zhao Su Mian smiled and nodded suddenly.

  Jiang Pingan smiled and asked, "You said you were He Yushui's classmate?"

   "Yes, we are not only high school classmates, but also elementary school classmates!" Zhao Su-Mian said with a smile.

  Jiang Pingan nodded, led the way with his hand, and said:

   "Then I'll take you to find her. Her home is in the middle courtyard, so it's not hard to find."

   "Thank you!" Zhao Sumian thanked, walked a few steps, and asked again: "I don't know your name yet!"

  Jiang Ping'an patted his forehead, and said hastily, "Uh, I just kept talking."

   "My name is Jiang Pingan. I am a buyer in a rolling mill. I am 23 years old."

   "I call your father uncle, if you don't mind, you can call me brother."

   "Brother Ping An!" Zhao Sumian yelled generously, and suddenly said:

   "I heard my dad talk about you a few times, and now you say it, I remember it."

   "Hehe!" Jiang Ping'an smiled and asked, "Your dad didn't say anything bad about me, did he?"

   "I can't, say you are a thoughtful, enlightened, and capable young man." Zhao Sumian smiled.

   Talking, the two came to the courtyard.

   "Yu Shui, come out, your classmate is looking for you." Jiang Pingan yelled at He Yushui's room.

   "Here we come!" He Yushui responded in the room, and quickly ran out.

   "Huh! Su Mian? That day I just thought you were talking, did you really come to play with me?"

  After seeing Zhao Sumian, He Yushui's eyes lit up, and he ran forward happily, grabbed Zhao Sumian's hand and spoke.

  Jiang Ping'an interjected: "The rain has already been brought, so I'll go back first!"

   "Thank you Brother Pingan." He Yushui thanked, and nodded slightly with a smile.

  Jiang Pingan nodded, and said to Zhao Sumian: "Second sister, have fun!"

   "Second Sister?" Zhao Su-Mian bit her lip and said, with black lines all over her hair:

   "Brother Ping An, please call me Su Mian, or Second Sister, it sounds weird."

   "Okay, I'll call you Su Mian from now on." Jiang Pingan nodded and smiled, then turned and left.

  Just returning home, He Yuzhu followed from behind.

   "Jiang Pingan, that girl who just came here is Yushui's classmate?" He Yuzhu said happily.

  Jiang Ping'an nodded and said, "Aren't you asking knowingly? I saw you peeking behind the door just now."

   "That girl looks weird, what's her name?" He Yuzhu asked with bright eyes.

  Jiang Ping'an glanced at him, shook his head and said, "Don't make up her mind, you can't reach her."

   "I just asked the name, why can't I reach it?" He Yuzhu frowned.

  Jiang Pingan said: "Ms. Ren is the daughter of Director Zhao, and she is still in high school. What do you think?"

   "Which Director Zhao?" He Yuzhu asked doubtfully.

  Jiang Pingan said: "Which Director Zhao is there? From the boutique rolling mill!"

   "Oh... so it's Zhao Yuchu!" He Yuzhu was stunned, and then said:

   "You said he has a shoehorn face, how could he give birth to such a juicy girl?"

  Jiang Pingan laughed loudly, pointed at He Yuzhu and said:

   "Haha, you boy, why does Zhao Changchang have a shoehorn face?"

   "He is just old now, when he was young, he was also a well-known handsome young man in all towns."

  He Yuzhu laughed and scratched his head.

  Jiang Pingan took out a cigarette, went to the front of the stove, took a piece of charcoal and lit it, took a sip, then turned around and said:

   "Silly Zhu, I still say the same thing, you don't want to think about other girls."

   "As far as Director Zhao's family is concerned, none of us can reach it."

   "Besides, the girl is still in high school, so even if you want to talk about marriage, you have to wait until after graduation."

   "That's true." He Yuzhu nodded, then stepped forward and said, "Hey, give me a cigarette."

  Jiang Pingan gave him a blank look, and said in a bad mood:

   "Smoking your own, I don't usually see you giving me cigarettes!"

  He Yuzhu said with a dry smile: "I'm not addicted to cigarettes, so I usually buy less."

   "It's not a reason to buy less, you just want to take advantage of others." Jiang Ping'an pursed his lips.

   "Don't think about rubbing other people's cigarettes all the time, just pay it back once or twice. If you do it too often, you will be disgusted by others!"

  ———

  He Yuzhu has self-knowledge.

   Director Zhao's daughter, he really didn't dare to make up his mind.

  Can't afford to climb high!

   "Okay! I won't let me smoke cigarettes, then turn on the radio and let me listen to it." He Yuzhu retreated and said the next best thing.

   This Jiang Pingan did not refuse.

  He Yuzhu didn't smoke cigarettes, mainly because this kid often asked him for cigarettes during this time.

  This habit is not good.

  Anyone who is often taken advantage of by others will not feel comfortable.

   Besides, buying cigarettes these days not only requires money, but also tickets.

  As long as tickets are involved, things are in short supply.

  That's why Jiang Ping'an talked to Lou Xiao'e that cigarettes are not easy to buy, but she listened to it and asked her father for help.

  The radio was turned on, and Jiang Ping'an tuned a storytelling book to listen to.

   Turn around and sit down with He Yuzhu, chatting while listening to the radio.

   While talking, I saw a girl walking in from outside the courtyard.

   Appearance, above average, but with a good figure, young, full of charm, and well-proportioned.

  After the girl came to the courtyard, she looked around, and when she heard something, she walked straight to Jiang Ping'an's house.

  At the door, the girl asked Jiang Ping'an, "Comrade, how can I get to He Yushui's house?"

   "Ask him, he is He Yushui's elder brother, let him lead the way." Jiang Pingan pointed to He Yuzhu and said.

  The girl smiled slightly at Jiang Pingan, then turned to He Yuzhu and said:

   "Are you Yushui's older brother Shazhu?"

   "Yes, yes, yes! I'm a fool!" He Yuzhu stood up abruptly, smiling broadly.

  The girl stretched out her hand, and introduced herself: "You silly Zhu, I'm He Yushui's classmate, Yu Haitang!"

   "Hello, I'm Yushui's brother, He Yuzhu, everyone calls me Shazhu."

  He Yuzhu's face was flushed with excitement, and he was at a loss for what to do. He bit the bullet and reached out to shake hands with Yu Haitang.

  Yu Haitang smiled, withdrew her hand, turned to Jiang Ping'an and said, "Who is this comrade?"

   "I'm just a neighbor, don't worry about me." Jiang Ping'an smiled.

   "Yes, yes, yes! Leave him alone, I will take you to see the rain first."

  He Yuzhu answered, walked to the door in one step, and led the way in front.

  Yu Haitang saw that Jiang Ping'an was handsome and didn't want to leave, so he hesitated for a moment, smiled and said:

   "Since he is He Yushui's neighbor, let's get to know him."

   "Hello, my name is Yu Haitang, and I am He Yushui's classmate. What do you call my comrade?"

  Jiang Ping'an said in his heart that Yu Haitang is indeed a familiar person with a cheerful personality.

   "My name is Jiang Ping'an!"

  He stood up, shook hands with Yu Haitang, and scratched her hand when he pulled back.

  Yu Haitang's smiling face froze, then returned to normal, her little face was blushing, and said with a smile:

   "Seeing that you are older than me, then I will call you Brother Ping An, okay?"

  Jiang Ping'an nodded and smiled, "Of course no problem!"

   "Since you are Yushui's classmate, you can often come to the courtyard to play in the future."

   "Well, I will definitely come here often!" Yu Haitang blinked and smiled.

  At this time, He Yuzhu who was beside him urged: "Yu Haitang, aren't you looking for my sister? Come with me!"

   "Brother Ping An, I'll go find He Yushui first, let's talk later." Yu Haitang said with a smile.

  Jiang Pingan nodded and smiled, "Yes, my door is open for you at any time."

   "Hee hee... Then it's settled, Brother Pingan, don't shut me out."

  Yu Haitang giggled, waved her hand, then turned around and followed He Yuzhu away.

   "This girl doesn't look very good, but she is outgoing!"

  Jiang Ping'an narrowed his eyes, thinking secretly.

   This girl is a bit unpredictable, but she is also a serious green tea.

   "By the way, Yushui School really has many beauties!" Jiang Ping'an suddenly thought.

   But having said that, there are many beauties in every school, and there is nothing surprising about it.

  Recovering, Jiang Ping'an turned off the radio, stepped out of the hospital, and went to the bathroom.

  As soon as he was discharged from the hospital, Xu Damao rushed out with his stomach in his arms.

   "Slow down, don't fall into the pit!" Jiang Ping'an reminded.

  Xu Damao pursed his lips and continued to run forward without bickering.

  Back after going to the bathroom, Jiang Pingan ran into Zhao Sumian who was about to leave at the door.

  Along with He Yushui and Yu Haitang, they saw each other off.

   "Sister Su Mian is leaving soon?" Jiang Pingan stepped forward and asked.

  Zhao Su-Mian nodded, pursed her lips and said with a smile: "My father is very strict."

   "Don't let me play outside too late, I have to know the way when I come here today."

   "Okay, pay attention to safety on the road, and help me take care of Uncle Zhao." Jiang Pingan nodded and smiled.

  Zhao Sumian left.

  He Yushui stepped forward and asked curiously: "Brother Pingan, did you know Su Mian before?"

   "I didn't know her before. I know her dad well, and I've heard her name before." Jiang Ping'an said with a smile.

  Yu Haitang interjected: "Brother Ping An, do you think the students in our school are all very beautiful?"

   "Uh, okay!" Jiang Pingan nodded and smiled.

  Yu Haitang frowned and said, "What's good? I, Yushui, Su Mian, aren't they all beautiful?"

   "Don't take me with you, I'm thin and not pretty at all." He Yushui blushed and waved his hands quickly.

  Yu Haitang nodded, puffed out her chest, and said, "I'm not skinny, so I should be pretty, right?"

   "You girl, how can you boast about yourself?" Jiang Ping'an couldn't help frowning.

  Yu Haitang giggled, raised her head and said:

   "Now is a new era, and women hold up half the sky. First of all, you must have self-confidence! I call it self-confidence!"

  At this time, Xu Damao, who came back from the bathroom, answered, "Yes, what this girl said is absolutely right!"

   "Xu Damao, it's none of your business, get out of here!" Jiang Pingan glared at him and waved.

  Xu Damao ignored him, stepped forward to look at Haitang a few times, smiled openly and said:

   "Are you He Yushui's classmate? You are indeed quite handsome and pretty!"

   "Really? Someone finally told the truth!" Yu Haitang glanced at Jiang Ping'an, and raised the corner of his mouth.

  Jiang Ping'an cut his voice, turned to He Yushui and said, "Yushui, let's go back to the courtyard and leave them alone!"

   "Well, I'll go back now." He Yushui responded, and followed Yu Haitang:

   "Haitang, you should go back earlier, if it's too late, your family will be worried."

  Yu Haitang looked at the sky, nodded and said: "It's time to go back, I have to go to school tomorrow morning!"

   "Why are you leaving now? Don't play for a while? It's still early!" Xu Damao hurriedly said.

  Jiang Pingan frowned and said, "Xu Damao, you married man, what's the fun with a little girl?"

   "Do you want me to tell Sister Xiao'e that you are molesting little girls outside?"

   "You're the only one who has a lot to do!" Xu Damao glared at him, then turned and went home.

  Yu Haitang pursed her lips, turned around, with a smile on her face, stretched out her hand, and said to Jiang Pingan:

   "Brother Ping An, I'm going back!"

  Jiang Ping'an stretched out his hand to shake her, ticked her palm a few more times indiscriminately, and said:

   "It's better to go back earlier, walk slowly on the road, and come back to play when you have time."

  ———

   "Rainwater, come to my house for dinner tonight!"

  Back in the courtyard, Jiang Pingan said to He Yushui.

   "No, you don't have much leftover food now, if I have one more bite, you have to eat one less!"

  He Yushui shook his head, replied, and trotted away.

   "This girl!" Jiang Ping'an smiled, but didn't chase after her.

  Turning around, about to go home, suddenly froze.

   I saw Yu Haitang standing at the gate, looking inside.

  Jiang Pingan laughed secretly and waved to her. Yu Haitang pursed his lips and trotted over.

   "Didn't you leave? Why are you back?"

  Yu Haitang smiled and said, "I want to talk to you alone!"

  Jiang Ping'an looked directly into her eyes, and she was not stage frightened, but also stared back with wide-eyed eyes.

  Hesitating for a moment, Jiang Pingan nodded and smiled, "Forget it, come with me."

  Yu Haitang followed into the room, glanced at it, and said in surprise:

   "Isn't your room too empty? You don't even have a decent set of furniture!"

   "The house next to me is still empty, there is no furniture at all!" Jiang Pingan gave a blank look and replied.

  Yu Haitang was surprised: "You have two houses like this?"

   "Yeah, what's the matter? Is there a problem?" Jiang Ping'an nodded and asked.

   As he spoke, he took a small bench and handed it over.

  Yu Haitang took the bench, shook her head and replied, "That's no problem, the house is quite spacious!"

  The two sat down and talked.

  Jiang Pingan asked: "How is your academic performance?"

   "So-so, not very good." Yu Haitang was depressed for a second, then changed the subject:

   "Listen to the rain, are you a buyer in a rolling mill?"

   "You're clever, you figured me out so quickly?" Jiang Ping'an asked with a smile.

   "Hee hee..." Yu Haitang giggled, nodded and said, "You're so handsome, you should have someone, right?"

   "Not yet. I have met countless times, but I just haven't met the right one." Jiang Pingan shook his head.

   "What's the matter? Ask me this, do you want to be nice to me?"

  Yu Haitang thought for a while, nodded and said bluntly: "That's what I mean."

   "It's just that I'm studying, and it's not time to talk about marriage."

  Jiang Pingan smirked and said: "We are so young now, we can stop talking about marriage!"

   "What do you mean?" Yu Haitang was stunned for a moment and asked in confusion.

  Jiang Pingan beckoned to her, but Yu Haitang hesitated for a moment, and leaned forward.

  Jiang Pingan murmured a few words in her ear, Yu Haitang frowned and whispered:

   "Isn't that good?..."

  Yu Haitang pursed her lips and hesitated, Jiang Pingan hugged her in his arms and whispered to her:

   "No one knows anyway."

  She is both worried and afraid, but also looking forward to being nervous.

  At this time, Jiang Pingan said softly: "Really, you will know after you try it."

  Yu Haitang opened her mouth, looked at Jiang Pingan's extremely handsome face, and finally couldn't help but hum.

   "Let's talk about it first, you can't say it, show off everywhere!"

   "You are not afraid, I am still afraid!"

   "If you don't want me from now on, I'll pester you!"

  Jiang Ping'an nodded and said, "Don't worry, I'm tight-lipped!"

   "Besides, if you want to marry someone, don't I also want to find someone to marry? I also pay attention to reputation!"

   "Okay!" After talking, Yu Haitang was no longer afraid.

  Jiang Pingan smiled.

  Yu Haitang choked up and said:

   "You are a bad person and a liar!"

   "Okay! Okay! Don't be angry." Jiang Ping'an comforted.

  Yu Haitang wrinkled her nose, snorted softly, and stopped making trouble.

  At this moment, she felt dizzy, as if she was dreaming.

   She has a crush on Jiang Ping'an!

   But she is also a straightforward character, never complaining.

   After regaining consciousness, Yu Haitang worried again: "It seems that the injury is quite serious, please help me take a look."

   "Okay, wait a minute." Jiang Ping'an nodded and replied, stood up and bent down to look down, and looked carefully.

   "Well, it's a little swollen, let me get you some ointment and put it on!" Jiang Ping'an said, raising his head.

  Yu Haitang frowned and said, "Is it so serious?"

   "It's okay, my ointment is very good." Jiang Ping'an reassured.

  Yu Haitang nodded and said: "Then quickly apply it for me, there is still time, I will go back later."

  Jiang Pingan smiled, went to the closet to make a show, and took out a jar of ointment from the space.

  This ointment was applied once for Qin Huairu, and it was quite effective.

   Turning around, Jiang Pingan quickly helped Yu Haitang to apply it.

   "Hiss... so cold, very good." Yu Haitang blinked and muttered softly.

   After applying the medicine, Jiang Ping'an put away the ointment.

  Yu Haitang gently slipped into his arms, and asked softly, "Really?"

   "No, just put your mind at ease!" Jiang Ping'an assured.

  Yu Haitang raised her head and smiled, "Can you teach me that method? It's amazing!"

   "That won't work. When I learned from others, they specifically told me that the secret method should not be passed on easily." Jiang Pingan shook his head and said.

  Yu Haitang begged several times, but to no avail, so she stopped pestering her.

   "Can I come to you often in the future?"

   "What? I fell in love with this?" Jiang Pingan said with a smirk.

  Yu Haitang giggled and replied: "You are really right."

   "It's just...just..."

   "What is it?" Jiang Ping'an asked puzzled.

  Yu Haitang blushed, leaned close to his ear, and whispered: "It's just..."

   "Hehe, you girl, you will know this is good in the future." Jiang Pingan patted her on the shoulder and said.

  Yu Haitang thought for a while, nodded and said, "That's right, I'll get used to it later."

   "Okay, you can come to me often in the future." Jiang Ping'an smiled.

   And specifically reminded: "But don't come to me just stupidly, just pretend to be looking for rainwater."

  Yu Haitang rolled her eyes and said, "Understood, I wouldn't be so stupid if you didn't tell me."

   "I think it's good that we sneaked, but we have to be more careful, so that no one will find out."

  ———

at dusk.

  Jiang Pingan spied on the movement in the yard, and let Yu Haitang go away after he was safe.

  Backing to the bedroom, Jiang Pingan picked up a new towel from the bed and frowned.

   After thinking about it, he took it to the stove outside and burned it.

  There's nothing to keep with this thing.

  Seeing that the towel was completely burned, Jiang Pingan took the opportunity to add some new charcoal so that he could cook later.

  After the charcoal was done, Jiang Ping'an took out the dirty water left by He Yushui's washing in the morning and dumped it.

  By the way, I washed the bucket carefully.

  While washing, he saw Yan Bugui come out of the room, stepped forward and asked:

   "Peace, something burned in your house, it smells like burning!"

  Jiang Pingan replied casually: "Throwing a few rags to catch the fire, did the third master eat?"

   "No, just have a bad meal at noon, and don't dare to eat more." Yan Bugui sighed.

  Jiang Ping'an nodded and said: "It's good to eat mush. I'll pay attention to the courtyard today. There are several houses that haven't opened fire!"

   "Hey, at this age, I don't know when it will be big." Yan Bugui said sadly.

  Jiang Ping'an echoed, "Yes, that ration alone is really not enough."

   "In the past few years, you can find other things, but starting this year, even wild vegetables are hard to find."

   "Who said no?" Yan Bugui nodded, then glanced at Jiang Ping'an, smiled and said:

   "But no matter how bad the age is, it won't starve you buyers."

  Jiang Ping'an laughed and said, "Hehe, I also rely on my uncle and the rain to help me, so my life is easier."

   "You, you are too cautious." Yan Bugui shook his head.

   "If you are more courageous, relying on the convenience of the buyer, are you afraid that you won't be able to get food?"

  Jiang Pingan shrugged, put down the washed bucket, and sighed:

   "Maybe my parents left early, so I developed a timid temper long ago, and I can't change it."

  At this time, I saw Yi Zhonghai walking out from the middle courtyard, and said while walking:

   "It's better to be timid. Being too courageous and lawless is not a good thing."

   "Master, have you eaten yet?" Jiang Ping'an greeted.

  Yi Zhonghai shook his head and said, "Let's eat later, or the night will be too long to control."

  Yan Bugui continued the previous topic and said:

   "I'm not saying that you must have a lot of courage to let Ping An."

   "But help the neighbors in the yard get some food."

   "With his ability, I believe it is not difficult."

  Yi Zhonghai said seriously: "It can be helpful for a while, but not forever."

   "How tight the food control is now, Lao Yan, you must know."

   "Ping'an is kind and honest, but you can't just see him being honest and come up with some crooked ideas to hurt him."

   "I didn't say I was going to harm him! Well, I made a mistake today."

  Yan Bugui saw that Yi Zhonghai was about to turn his face if he continued speaking, so he stopped talking immediately.

  Yi Zhonghai's face softened, he turned his head and smiled at Jiang Pingan:

   "Ping'an is doing the right thing, but we can't help people get food. Life is hard now, and everyone doesn't have enough to eat."

   "But then again, it's not just the people in our yard who are starving!"

   "So in the future, if someone asks you to help with food, you will firmly refuse."

   "Although our courtyard advocates harmony, it also advocates harmony on the premise of abiding by the law."

  Jiang Pingan nodded and said, "Don't worry, Mr. I will remember what you said, and I will never help others get food."

  Yi Zhonghai nodded in satisfaction, and said, "That's fine, you guys are busy, I'll go out and use the bathroom."

  After Yi Zhonghai left the hospital, Yan Bugui stepped forward and asked in a low voice:

   "Ping An, you don't want to give Lao Yi a pension, do you?

   "He treats you so well, I don't believe you didn't see his purpose?"

   "Uh, why is it related to pension again?" Jiang Ping'an frowned.

   "Third Master, with the age of the First Master, he can still work for decades."

   "It's not too early to talk about pensions now?"

  Yan Bugui saw that Jiang Ping was confused about the installation, so he didn't bother to say any more, he just said: "Okay, you can figure it out for yourself."

   After finishing speaking, he turned and went home.

  Jiang Ping'an pursed his mouth, and Yan Bugui knew what **** he was pouting as soon as he pouted his tail.

  Back home with the bucket, Jiang Pingan saw that the fire was completely ignited, so he started cooking.

  He wanted to eat something light at night, so he cooked a small pot of white rice porridge and ate it with steamed buns and pickles.

  In less than half an hour, a pot of fragrant, smooth and thick white rice porridge came out of the pot.

  Rice porridge is soft and smooth, soft and slightly sticky, fragrant and refreshing. After taking a bite, the lips and teeth are fragrant, and it is particularly comfortable.

   With the fluffy and soft white flour steamed buns and the fresh and crispy spicy mustard shreds, it is a perfect match.

   After eating and drinking enough, Jiang Ping'an washed the dishes with hot water and kept the stove clean.

   Hastily changed the water in the salt water bottles that warmed the quilts, and warmed the quilts first.

  There is a lot of water, and the thermos bottle is filled again, and the rest is poured into the basin to wash your face and feet.

  After finishing the work in an orderly manner, it was already dark.

  The cold wind rustled, Jiang Pingan put on a thick cotton jacket, and went to the toilet again.

   When he came back, he found He Yushui standing at the door of his house.

   "Why don't you go in?" Jiang Ping'an asked with raised eyebrows after approaching.

  He Yushui pursed his lips and smiled, "Waiting for you to come back."

  Jiang Ping'an nodded, smiled and said, "Go in and talk."

   When the two came to the house, He Yushui glanced at him and asked with a smile, "Did you wash your feet so early?"

   "Well, it's too cold, go to bed earlier to keep warm." Jiang Pingan nodded and replied.

  Paused, he asked: "Tomorrow morning, you have to go to school again?"

   "Yeah, it will take several days to see you again, and I am very reluctant." He Yushui replied softly, his face flushed slightly.

  Jiang Pingan put down the curtains, turned around, embraced her in his arms, and smelled her hair.

   The two hugged each other quietly.

  Suddenly, He Yushui pressed his hand, raised his head and said:

   "I can't play anymore, if you play again, I'm afraid I will lose sleep at night."

   "Let's just hug like this and talk for a while, okay?"

   "That's fine, but you can't press my hand." Jiang Pingan nodded.

  He Yushui said coquettishly: "I really don't know where you learned these bad habits..."

   Having said that, she let go of her hand.

   "Did your brother send you a lunch box to school recently?" Jiang Ping'an asked while playing.

  He Yushui frowned, pursed his lips, and replied after a while: "I delivered it."

   "I have been running to our school this week. After seeing a few beautiful classmates, I became more interested."

  Jiang Pingan smirked and said, "I guess I will run more frequently next week."

   "Two female classmates came to your house today, and they almost dazzled him."

   "Hmm..." He Yushui hummed lightly, biting his lips, eyes blurred, and limp in Jiang Ping'an's arms.

   "If he wants to go, he will go."

   "My brother, he is dizzy and dazzled. He has a heart but no guts. He is extremely unreliable."

   "So what if I see a pretty girl? I still can't find a match!"
