Siheyuan: I am Du Shouyi

Chapter 43: Brain Teasers

He Yuzhu invited Ran Qiuye to his home by celebrating his sister's entrance into school.Ran Qiuye really has the calmness of "the beauty of autumn leaves", and everyone in the courtyard likes her very much.In addition, Lou Xiaoe also made an appearance in the courtyard.For a while, the saying that "siheyuan is on the rise" slowly spread in the alleys.

What was the courtyard house like before?Lonely old, extinct, widows, orphans.You can use the quadrangle courtyards in this society, there will always be one that will suit you.

Can you look at now?Three beautiful big girls scrambled to get married in the courtyard.In terms of status, money, and culture, everyone can surpass Nanluo.The rarest thing is that they are as beautiful as flowers.Three 'big honey' let a courtyard house all collected, this is the market.

In a blink of an eye it was Sunday.On this day, the Du family's breakfast was simple, 'Sanyuan' milk, served with 'Dashunzhai' sugar fire, all signed by the system in the past two days.

When the milk first came, Du Shouyi 'broke the precept' and asked 'Xiaodang' to take it home to drink in front of Gong Xiaobei and Du Shougui.Then when Xiaodang came to play again, he vented all the 'bottom': "Grandma gave it to brother."

Du Shouyi knew this would happen, he said with empty teeth that Jia Zhang's eccentricity, the two girls may not believe it all, now they should understand everything after trying it?

Du Shouyi has a 'second hand' waiting for him.Except for Du Shouyi, no other males can enter Gong Xiaobei's small courtyard, nor can children, so the sticks are naturally excluded.

Du Shouyi said it in a high-sounding way: Of course, a girl must consider the influence when she is out alone.

The men, women and children in the compound couldn't help laughing in private: Du Shouyi is jealous and narrow-minded, even children?

But this small courtyard belonged to Gong Xiaobei alone, and it was written in the house book. He said on behalf of Gong Xiaobei that no one would be allowed to enter, so there was really no way.

Besides, the three uncles really have nothing to say about whether they are anti-male or not anti-mother.How to say?A few of us elders also want to go to the girl's courtyard to have a look?
This time it was really wrong, and they guessed more than half of it.Du Shouyi's 'defense' is really a child, awesome.

There are many delicious and fun things in Xiaobei's house, but according to the "rules" of the courtyard house, the door is not locked, so...

After breakfast, the three of us were ready to break up.Du Shougui asked He Yushui to go crazy, and Gong Xiaobei met an old classmate in the compound on Sunday, and made an appointment to watch a movie today.Du Shouyi was left 'alone with the vacancy'.

Du Shouyi also found something for himself. He was going to a second-hand bookstore. Second-hand books were cheap, so he could spend a lot of money on them.

There are two places to find used books in Kyoto, one is used bookstores, and the other is waste recycling stations set up in every street.Du Shouyi wandered around all day, and there were waist-high stacks of old books in the space, which only cost six yuan in total.The old books at the waste station are all priced according to the waste paper, which is cheaper than old newspapers, and the price-performance ratio is unbeatable.

There is a saying in the previous life; those who haven’t read world masterpieces in school basically won’t read them when they get out of school.

After hearing this, Du Shouyi went to the library to borrow a tome of classics.Seriously read two pages, and then...he couldn't help picking up his phone, the book was never touched until the day it was returned.
But it's different now, the phone is gone, the computer is gone, he has tasted something more boring than boring.

No wonder there are three generations of literature lovers in this era, old, middle-aged and young, because it is so boring after dark!More boring than serious literature.That is completely a matter of mutual harm between the two powers, whichever is the lesser.

But when he calmed down and looked at it this way, it really showed him something.

There are quite a few such 'changes'.The same is true of Beijing opera. When watching the Spring Festival Gala in the previous life, it was time to go to the toilet when the opera was sung together, but now, the taste of Beijing opera is also tasted by him.Sometimes when there is a familiar aria on the radio, he can still hum along with it in a wild way, which is really 'magical'.

After a day of wandering, Du Shouyi came to the compound at the dinner table. He brought a portion of 'Yueshengzhai' beef tongue and two 'Quanjude' roast ducks.

The duck in Bianyifang is filled with soup and then roasted in the oven, boiled inside and roasted outside.Quanjude is directly baked in an open fire hanging oven, which is more oily in comparison.Du Shouyi preferred the former.

The tastes of the old Kyoto people are similar, Badafang Zhongyifang and its branches account for four, which shows how much the people of Kyoto prefer it.But now it is not so particular, everyone is short of oil and water, the more oily the more delicious.

Gu Ling had already bought dry food and vegetables in the cafeteria.Seeing Du Shouyi take out six or seven lunch boxes, he couldn't help but ask, "Why are there so many?"

"Quanjude's ducks, I looked good, so I took two. Don't look too much, the cake alone takes up a lunch box." He said with a smile: "I almost didn't find my home, but I ran into Jianguo's classmate Zhong Yuemin who took me. came."

After the level adjustment of Ningyuan Mountain, the housing has also been adjusted accordingly. Du Shouyi was a little confused in the compound when he just moved in this week. Fortunately, he met Zhong Yuemin.

"I told Xiaobei Jianguo to pick you up, but you refused." Gu Ling smiled and went to the kitchen to make soup.

Gong Xiaobei saw that there was a break now, so he hurriedly said in a low voice: "Shouyi, I saw Xu Damao and a woman visiting Wangfujing today, and that woman is not Lou Xiaoe."

"Really?" Hearing this, Du Shouyi suddenly felt relieved.

"Well, it's true. But I avoided it and didn't let him find it."

At this moment, Gu Ling came out and said, "The soup is ready, let's eat." The two stopped talking immediately, and got up to help set up the dishes.

On the way back from the compound, the two talked about this topic again.

Gong Xiaobei said: "Do you want to tell Lou Xiao'e?"

Du Shouyi thought for a while, and said, "I can't say? Besides, maybe Xu Damao is a relative?"

"Then don't care?"

"This is purely a matter of right and wrong, it has nothing to do with life, so don't worry about it. Besides, Lou Xiao'e doesn't know who Xu Damao is better than us? Her father is the director of the factory?! She is pretending to be confused, why do you want to expose it?"

Gong Xiaobei thought for a while, "Oh, people's hearts are really complicated."

"Where is this? The ghosts and monsters haven't performed on stage yet." Du Shouyi accidentally missed a word. Fortunately, Gong Xiaobei didn't pay much attention to it, and the sentence just slipped by.

After riding for a while, Gong Xiaobei thought about it too, smiled and chatted with Du Shouyi about brain teasers.

During dinner at night, Du Shouyi and Ning Jianguo joked about how many steps it takes to lock an elephant into the storage room.This kind of weird question suddenly ignited the atmosphere at the dinner table, and Gong Xiaobei wanted to laugh when he thought about it until now.

"Are there any other strange questions like this? I still want to hear about it."

"Is that so? Well, I'll think of another one."

The two returned home talking and laughing, and the girls who had gathered in the north room to listen to the radio were about to leave when they saw them coming back.

Originally, he thought that only Shougui and Yushui were listening to the radio, but now Du Shouyi saw that Yan Jiedi, the youngest of the Yan family, was among them.Yan Jiedi is nine years old this year and usually keeps quiet.Like Du Shouyi before, she was a little transparent in the courtyard.

When passing by Du Shouyi and Gong Xiaobei, she called out weakly, "Brother Shouyi, sister Xiaobei."

"Xie Di, are you on vacation?"

"Let it go, it was just released yesterday."

"Well, please give me your voice when you see your elder brother. I haven't seen him for several days."

Yan Jiedi relaxed a little, "Okay, Brother Shouyi, I'll go back first."

"Well, let's go."

Du Shouyi didn't feel bad for her, but it was Xiaobei's place after all, so he didn't politely ask her to come and play again tomorrow.

Yan Jiedi is nine years old this year.Nine years old in [-] was fourteen in [-], sixteen in [-], very standard old three!
In the TV series, Yan Jiedi also showed her face when the earthquake-proof shelter was built in [-]. Du Shouyi felt that this was impossible!
Under normal circumstances, where should Yan Jiedi jump in line at this time!Even Yan Jiekuang, the fourth son of the Yan family, should have jumped in the queue, it is impossible to appear in the courtyard.

This is not explained in the play, but in [-] and [-], the family of the third grandfather ate at a table, and his age could be seen when discussing bicycles.

To put it another way, the children of the Yan family are only a little older than Bang Geng, and even Bang Geng has gone to the countryside. Why are these two people still wandering around in the city? !They are a multi-child family, not to mention two, at least one cannot escape.
