After going down to the 4th floor, I went to the toilet to put on the mask, and then left the hotel straight away.

He looked back at the building behind him.

However, no one is monitoring He Mingyue, so there should be no need to worry about safety issues. Seeing that it was already five o'clock, there was no need to pick up Qin Xiao, so he rode his bicycle towards the house.

Back in the compound, those who should get off work have already got off work.

Maomao and Xizi are playing in the compound with the eldest grandson of Xie Yongle's family.

The heads of several companies cook there. There was a burst of fragrance in the courtyard.

"Xiao Chuan, it's time to get off work! Why are you back so late today!"...

Sister Sun recently saw him say hello.

"Well, I'm off work, and I'm delayed. What does Sister Sun cook, it's so delicious!"

"Hehe, fried spinach, let's eat together later!" "No need, Xiaoxiao is cooking."

After speaking, he greeted Qin Xiao with a smile and walked towards Qin Xiao. Garlic red amaranth is being fried in the pot.

"something delicious?"

"I stir-fried amaranth and potherb mustard, and I will stir-fry tomatoes and eggs later, and we will have dinner in a while!"

Zhou Xiaochuan took a look, there was no meat.

But think about it, the amount of meat is so much.

Chickens and ducks don't need tickets, but they have to go early. Qin Xiao goes to work in the morning and doesn't have time to buy them.

There is no shortage of oil and water, but it still feels a bit boring without meat.

From the treasure bag, he took out a small piece of pork belly and a piece of lettuce. They packed it up there.

Qin Xiao took a look, feeling a little worried, looked around, and asked in a low voice, "Isn't it good to eat meat all the time? This is Kyoto, you should pay attention."

Knowing that she thought she went to the black market to buy things again.

He smiled and said indifferently: "It's okay, I went to the 5th floor of the department store to buy something."

Hearing this, Qin Xiao said nothing more.

Only a certain level can go to the 5th floor. She hasn't been there yet, and she doesn't know what's inside.

If the level is higher, go to No. 34 Baogong Building, where things are better and more, basically there will be no shortage.

Zhou Xiaochuan peeled the lettuce and washed it together with the meat. When I came back to slice the meat, I took a look at the empty chicken coop by the way.

Then he asked in a low voice: "The chicken didn't lay any eggs today?"

Qin Xiao heard the words, looked around, and nodded slightly. Seeing this, Zhou Xiaochuan didn't speak, and continued to slice the meat.

By the way, I took a look at the few houses on the opposite side.

Sister Sun and Sister Zhang are at home all day long, and their children's school is not far away, so it stands to reason that they won't be stolen by others!

But maybe, the tiger still has time to take a nap!

In fact, his first reaction was Liu Ying, who lived next door to Sister Sun's house. Because the other party's child was injured, it was reasonable to take eggs to supplement the child.

But the other family all went to work, and only went to see the children at night.

No time either.

Then he set his sights on Xie Yongle's house over the main hall. His family is the most suspicious.

Because the other daughter-in-law is taking care of the children at home, she has the best chance. After thinking for a while, he decided to forget it.

He can still talk about it if he catches it.

Now I can't find who did it, and he can't do it like a shrew for a few eggs.

Then he said to Qin Xiao: "After two days, kill the chicken and eat it!"

Another reason that made him angry was that the person who took the eggs was too greedy.

Leave one for him no matter what! Give him a clean sweep.

Qin Xiao cracked the eggs in the bowl, thought for a while, and nodded: "Okay, we'll talk about it when the time comes, there's no rush."

While thinking, Jiang Hongmei from next door walked over with a smile.

Looking at Zhou Xiaochuan who was cutting meat, and Qin Xiao who was beating eggs, the other party smiled: "Oh, sister Qin, what is the happy event today? So many

good dishes. "

Hearing this, Qin Xiao cracked eggs and said with a smile, "Oh, he went to the fifth floor of the department store to buy some meat."

Jiang Hongmei was surprised when she heard the words: "Oh, the 5th floor! Can you go to the 5th floor?"

"Well, he can go, but I can't."

As soon as he said this, the other party felt envious for a while.

I looked at the four houses and said, "No wonder the two of you can live in four houses. Feelings are great cadres!"

Qin Xiao smiled and said nothing.

Seeing her expression, Jiang Hongmei said with some embarrassment: "That... Sister Qin, I was a little embarrassed to come here, but thinking about it, I came here with a cheeky face."

When Qin Xiao heard the words, she knew what the other party meant. Probably a chicken thing.

Then he smiled and said, "It's okay, Sister Jiang, just tell me if you have something to do, what's so polite about this neighbor in the neighborhood."

Seeing this, the other party smiled, and said with some embarrassment: "That's right, my eldest grandson is just out of confinement, isn't Lan Lan from Liu Ying's family across the street hospitalized? I wondered, can you chickens also Get us two? One for each of us."

Upon hearing this, Qin Xiao looked at Zhou Xiaochuan who was cutting lettuce.

Seeing her questioning gaze, Zhou Xiaochuan raised his head and said with a smile, "Yes, it's a trivial matter, but it depends on luck, and I don't know if I can get it."

At any time, it is not worrying about scarcity but inequality. No rejection.

But did not directly agree.

At that time, just say that there are no such big chickens. Anyway, they can buy live chickens themselves, but they can't buy such fat ones.

"Hey, don't worry, don't worry, just wait until one day you happen to leave two of them for us."

Jiang Hongmei smiled familiarly.

Seeing this, Zhou Xiaochuan nodded, pretending to agree.

"Then thank you in advance, you guys are busy first, I'm going back!" The other party was polite, said hello and left.

After the person left, Qin Xiao shrugged at him. Seeing this, Zhou Xiaochuan smiled and continued to make his dishes.

Today, not only his house, but also Liu Ying's house across the street is cooking meat dishes. It's chicken soup, which should be for the children's health.

While cooking, he was thinking about what He Mingyue said.

You must know that Liu Chuanming is not needed for the "equipment" that can be sold officially, and the purpose is self-evident.

What Liu Chuanming did was to pin his head to his waistband. He couldn't figure out why he was taking such a risk when he was living a good life.

Can't figure it out!

But this has nothing to do with him.

Everyone has their own life and thoughts.

What he thought was that if there were any unimportant things in the future, it would be more appropriate for Liu Chuanming to do them.

He can't let him go out by himself every time.

After the meal was ready, the two sat there and ate dinner.

Qin Xiao looked at the dishes served separately on the table, and said to him, "Don't do it next time, it's getting hotter and hotter, and it will be broken by then." Zhou Xiaochuan thought about it, and felt the same .

He took a bite of the food and nodded: "Alright, then next time you eat in the cafeteria, I will come back tonight to make up for you."

While talking, Zhu Jianye came in with a smile and a plate. "Captain Zhou, it's time to eat! My mother steamed some steamed buns, let me bring some to you."

Seeing this, Qin Xiao stood up: "Eat it yourself."

"It's okay, let's taste it! Let's leave it here! I'll go back first." After Zhu Jianye finished speaking, he put the things on the dining table, said hello, then turned and left.

This is eating! I am also embarrassed to stay.

"Wait a minute, I just have something to look for you!" Zhou Xiaochuan's words made the other party stop. Zhu Jianye was puzzled for a moment: "What's the matter?" He thought to himself, don't work dirty!

"Oh, it's nothing, I'll give you something, you can go to the street office tomorrow and ask, there is a job over there, I don't know if your side is eligible

Meet the criteria. "Handed him a piece of paper, and then talked about the situation of the new job. Zhu Jianye opened the paper, looked at the introduction letter on it, and felt happy for a while.

"Hey, Uncle Zhou, you will be my uncle from now on, just say hello to me if you have anything to do from now on."

This job is similar to what Zhou Xiaochuan said before.

But this time it is on the street where I am, which is more convenient, and I don't need to take a bus.

Why not make him happy!

Hearing this, Zhou Xiaochuan waved his hand: "Okay, go and do your work, you have to try this, I can't guarantee that you will pass, if you can't pass, then come to me!"

Zhu Jianye smiled happily when he heard this, "Thank you, Uncle Zhou." After saying that, he said hello and left.

After a while, the other party ran out of the compound excitedly.

Qin Xiao looked at the back of the other party leaving, smiled at him and said, "What do you think he is going to do?"

Zhou Xiaochuan took a bite of the food, and said with a sure face: "It must be to announce the good news to the person he cares about! What else can I do!"

Then shook his head.

He didn't feel good if it went on like this, but he didn't stop helping because of this.

After speaking, he took a bite of the bun.

"Well, the steamed stuffed bun with mixed vegetables tastes good, and the oil is not missing."

There are wild vegetables, dried bamboo shoots, and bean curds, and there are a lot of them in a mess. There are many types.

The taste is really good. "Really? I'll try it."

Hearing this, Qin Xiao took one and took a bite.

Then nodded: "Well, it's delicious, much more delicious than what I made."

Seeing this, Zhou Xiaochuan quickly smiled and said, "How is that possible? Your cooking is still delicious. Someday we will make buns ourselves. Give them some too." Although he helped himself.

But reciprocity is still necessary.

Hearing this, Qin Xiao gave him a reproachful look. However, he nodded in agreement.

After coming over for a while, Sister Zhang from the opposite side came over.

Seeing this, Zhou Xiaochuan naturally knew that he had come to thank him.

Sure enough, the other party's gratitude at that time was short of thanking his eight generations of ancestors.

But the other party also brought a message.

Sister Zhang looked at the two of them, hesitated for a moment, and said, "By the way, did your chicken not lay eggs today?"

Hearing this, Zhou Xiaochuan's expression changed: "Oh, Sister Zhang, your chickens haven't laid any eggs yet?"

The other party heard that the egg was really lost.

Then he shook his head: "That's not it, it's just...there is a child in the No. 8 courtyard..."

Sister Zhang hesitated for a moment, but still told the story. Uncle Liu in No. 8 courtyard has been alone all his life, has no children, and enjoys a subsistence allowance for cleaning toilets in the street.

In 1962, the other party picked up a baby boy at the toilet door. I stayed to prepare for retirement.

But there is no labor force in the family, only subsistence allowances barely survive.

So this child has done a lot of petty theft since he was a child, and the neighbors in the neighborhood also turned a blind eye.

When I ran into a few words, it passed like this.

"The kid came over yesterday and today. He used to like to follow Jianye's ass, so I came here to ask."

After Sister Zhang finished speaking, she said bitterly: "This boy, why did you steal it from you? No, I have to talk to Uncle Liu about it. Ask if he did it."

After finishing speaking, I will leave.

After Zhou Xiaochuan finished listening, he watched the other party's movements and stopped her.

"Sister Zhang, forget it, it's just a few eggs. When you are at home, just help us look after it."

Since the things were not done by the people in the yard, he didn't care. He is afraid that the people around him will make trouble.

He didn't agree with the practice of stealing things, but with the other party's situation, he didn't want to make trouble anymore.

Just be more careful in the future.

"That won't work, I have to talk about it. After this matter is done, his grandfather must know that it's one thing whether the kid listens to it or not, but if he doesn't talk about it, that's pampering him.

And he came here in the name of Jianye, I have to ask for an explanation!

No matter what happens, I can't let him come again next time. "After speaking, he turned his head and left.

Watching each other leave, the two looked at each other. "This is what happened!"

Qin Xiao hesitated for a moment and said: "We are full too, how about... let's go and have a look!"

Hearing her words, Zhou Xiaochuan nodded, and asked the other party to go to someone to settle accounts alone. It didn't feel right for them not to go there.

Then the two left the compound together.

The place is not far away, and there is a big courtyard across. When the two came out, they looked at the courtyard that Sister Zhang entered.

The two quickly walked forward.

When I came to the compound, I happened to meet Zhu Jianye who came back dejectedly. "Uncle Zhou, what are you doing here?"

Seeing that the two were about to enter the door, he was curious for a while. Zhou Xiaochuan told what happened.

Zhu Jianye slapped his head when he heard the words: "It's broken, Xiao Dao, you did something bad again! I'll go in and take a look."

After finishing speaking, he hurriedly ran inside. Seeing this, the two also followed in.

"Aunt Yang..." "Uncle Zhao...". "Xiaoya..."...

"Jianye! What happened to your mother? Did the knife take something from your house?" Zhu Jianye greeted the people inside.

Smiling to the last one, he said, "Uncle Zhao, I don't know either, I'll come and have a look!"

After speaking, continue to walk inside.

Stepping through the vertical flower gate, came to the main courtyard, did not stop, and came to the back cover room at the back.

After entering the back cover room, there were also people inside.

Sister Zhang's voice came from the two rooms on the far side. Several people stood at the door and did not go in.

The door of the room was wide open, and Sister Zhang was sitting in front of the Eight Immortals table. Opposite her was an old man smoking a pipe in a low voice.

Standing beside him was a skinny boy of twelve or thirteen years old.

"Uncle Liu, this is not kind! When Xiaodao was young, he liked to play with my family Jianye. Every time I came here, I would catch up with the meal time. I have never been too late!

In that compound now, I am a representative of the neighborhood committee, and you said this thing, didn't you slap me in the face? "

Did not tell the child. It doesn't make sense.

The old man is older, his face is full of wrinkles, and his teeth have lost a lot.

Hearing this, the old man took a puff of tobacco.

He glanced at the small knife next to him: "What's the matter? How many times have I said, no stealing, no stealing, and it doesn't work?" Then he swiped with one hand.

The two bowls of corn porridge, a plate of scrambled eggs, and a plate of pickled vegetables on the table were swept to the ground with his movements.

The bowl was broken and the dishes were dirty.

The boy didn't speak, and silently held the broken bowl, and put the eggs into the cracked bowl.

While doing it, while wiping tears.

Just didn't speak, and didn't cry out.

The old man took a puff of tobacco and sighed, "Hey, I've grown up, and now I'm disobedient. I can't control it!"

Xiao Dao said nothing, but shook his head like a rattle. As if to deny it.

Sister Zhang couldn't bear it when she saw this, and sighed, "Xiao Dao, I'm just a woman, so I can't explain so many big reasons. As the old saying goes, rabbits don't even eat grass by the side of their nests! Doing this in the compound next door to my house, Hey.....where do you put Aunt Zhang's face..."

said with a final sigh.

Seeing this, Zhu Jianye at the door said in a low voice, "This kid is actually not as bad as I imagined...".

Sighed and didn't explain much.

Zhou Xiaochuan glanced at it. The room was very simple, and the clothes the boy was wearing were covered with patches.

will aim

Light placed in the room in the house and scanned around.

Then he said to Zhu Jianye: "Tell your mother, forget about the eggs, we will go back."

"Oh! Good! Then I'll go in!"

Seeing this, Zhou Xiaochuan gestured to Qin Xiao, and the two left the compound.

When he came to the door, he looked at Qin Xiao beside him, and said with a smile, "Anyway, it's still early, why don't you hang around here for a while, and I'll wash the bowls when I get back."

When Qin Xiao heard this, she nodded. The two walked in the alley.

Walking on the road, looking at Qin Xiao who wanted to ask, he smiled and said, "What's the matter? Did you think about your past? I still remember that you stole my money before?"

Hearing this, Qin Xiao smiled a little embarrassedly.

"You are a real person. It's been so long, and you still mention it!"

Looking at the smile on the other party's face, Zhou Xiaochuan teased: "Actually, my craft was already very good at that time. You are just a little girl, I just let you go."

Qin Xiao was ashamed and angry for a while when she heard the words, but when she thought about her grandfather's contest with him at the beginning~lightnovelpub.net~, it seemed like that was the case!

Then he asked curiously: "By the way, who did you learn from? Ask you and you never tell!"

"I am self-taught!"

When Qin Xiao heard this, she gave him an angry look. The two walked along the alley.

Looking at the courtyards of various colors on both sides of the road, I think it is a pity that most of them will be demolished in the future, and only a few will be left behind.

At this time, his mentality is also changing.

I used to think about high-rise buildings, but later I thought that the value of this courtyard house would be very high after it was released, so I wanted a set.

Later, if there is a large courtyard house in this capital, it would be nice to be quiet in the midst of the hustle and bustle.

Strolling in the alley until it was dark, the two of them came back in a daze.
