Siheyuan: Traveling through Cai Quanwu, pretending to be Uncle Shazhu

When Cai Quanwu found He Yuyu, this group of children mixed with the children in the courtyard next door and had a great time.

There were so many children that several circles were formed.

What age to play with.

A group of fourteen and fifteen year olds.

A group of teenagers.

Six or seven-year-olds were playing behind these two groups.

No matter how young they are, no one will take them to play, and their walking will not be very stable. They will be a complete burden unless there are older brothers and sisters to carry them.

"Yu Yu, go back and eat dumplings." Cai Quanwu shouted from a distance.

Hearing Cai Quanwu's cry, He Yuyu agreed: "Okay."

Cai Quanwu waited for a while, and He Yuyu and others ran back panting.

"We've all gone home to eat dumplings. Let's play again tomorrow night."

Cai Quanwu glanced at these little brats and said something to them.

Whether they listen or not is their business, and whether they speak or not is their own business.

At this time, most family dumplings should have been wrapped.

Under the gaze of this group of children, Cai Quanwu took He Yuyu and Xu Meiling back to the courtyard.

Seeing He Yuyu go back, Xu Meiling took the initiative to follow him back.

Walking to the middle courtyard, He Yuyu and Xu Meiling broke up, and Xu Meiling walked to the backyard home alone.

He Yuyu went to the uncle's house.

After entering the uncle's house, He Yuyu greeted everyone and called a circle of people.

When it was Jia Zhang's turn, He Yuyu asked innocently.

"Aunt Jia, is your stomach okay?"

He Yuyu's question gave Mr. Jia Zhang another embarrassment. Ordinary people would have died on the spot. Fortunately, Mr. Jia Zhang was thick-skinned and managed to say something without breaking his guard.

"never mind."

Fortunately, Ms. Jia Zhang didn't embarrass her for long. As soon as Ms. Jia Zhang finished speaking, the aunt called someone in the kitchen.

"Zhuzi, Dongxu, come and serve the dumplings."

When they heard Auntie calling for dumplings, Shazhu and Jia Dongxu hurried to the kitchen.

Jia Dongxu is not active in working, but very active in eating, especially eating other people's food.

A few minutes later, Silly Zhu and Jia Dongxu walked in carrying dumplings.

The dumplings were served with soy sauce and vinegar. When everyone arrived, everyone picked up their chopsticks and started eating the dumplings.

Eating dumplings without vinegar is soulless.

Cai Quanwu was not very hungry. He ate a few and stopped eating. He watched others eating with great interest to see who was lucky enough to get the coins.

After finishing a meal of dumplings, I didn't expect that the ones with the best luck were Jia Zhang, the deaf old lady and Silly Zhu.

Each of the three of them had a dumpling with coins.

According to the probability, it shouldn’t be the three people who eat the most dumplings.

The dumplings eaten by the deaf old lady and Silly Zhu were not ranked high.

If you can’t figure it out, stop thinking about it. After eating the dumplings, today’s New Year’s Eve dinner is completely over.

It’s time for everyone to go back to their own homes and find their own mothers.

Silly Zhu supported the deaf old lady and prepared to take her home.

Cai Quanwu took He Yuyu home.

Jia Zhangshi and Jia Dongxu went home first with Banggeng, while Qin Huairu stayed to help Auntie pack up before going back.

After returning home, Cai Quanwu refilled his enamel jar with some hot water and drank from the enamel jar.

I drank a lot and now I feel thirsty.

When Sha Zhu comes back, Cai Quanwu and He Yuyu wash up and go to bed, leaving the matter of staying up late to Sha Zhu.

There was no other way, Shazhu volunteered to stay up late on New Year's Eve.

Cai Quanwu wanted to sleep a little longer before the door-opening cannon sounded. At 12 o'clock, the door-opening cannons continued, making it difficult to sleep well.

After washing up, Cai Quanwu entered the room and got on the kang to sleep.

When Cai Quanwu woke up again, the sound of firecrackers continued outside.

He was woken up by the sound of firecrackers.

I got up and looked at Shazhu, and found that this guy was not in the main room. He probably didn't hold on and went to bed.

Not seeing Silly Zhu, Cai Quanwu returned to the room, locked the door, and entered the rental house with a thought.

It was too noisy to sleep outside, so Cai Quanwu was not prepared to sleep in a rental house.

……

The next day.

After Cai Quanwu woke up, he took out his watch and looked at it. It was already past seven o'clock.

I got up and went to the toilet, then with a thought, I left the rental house.

After returning to the room, shortly after getting on the kang, there was a knock on the door.

"Uncle, get up."

"Uncle, get up."

He Yuyu was knocking on the door outside the room.

Cai Quanwu felt that he woke up too soon, otherwise he would not know what supernatural events would happen.

If you don't wake up in the rental house and no one answers the door, others will think you are poisoned by gas.

It would be great fun if he forced his way in without discovering himself.

This is also the reason why Cai Quan sleeps in rented houses all the time even though it is convenient to rent a house.

This girl, He Yuyu, is really not going to sleep on New Year's Day, why is she disturbing people's dreams?

"Rain, what are you doing if you don't sleep?"

"Uncle, happy New Year."

"Happy New Year to you too. My uncle is still sleeping for a while. Is your brother up yet?"

"I got up, set off the cannons and then went to bed again. I said I didn't sleep well at night."

This time, before Cai Quanwu could reply, He Yuyu shouted again.

"Uncle, get up and open the door."

There was no way, the little girl was annoying, so Cai Quanwu had to open the door, and his original idea of ​​​​wanting to sleep was shattered.

As soon as Cai Quanwu opened the door, He Yuyu ran in wearing new clothes.

Maybe it means showing off your colorful jacket.

Seeing Cai Quanwu, He Yuyu walked up to him, found a pair of Cai Quanwu's insoles and put them under his knees. He kowtowed to Cai Quanwu and said with a smile:

"Uncle, happy New Year."

After saying that, he stared at Cai Quanwu and said, "Where is my red envelope?"

He Yuyu stared at Cai Quanwu for a while, and then Cai Quanwu realized that the little girl was waiting for her red envelope and couldn't help but smile and said:

"Girl, didn't I give you a red envelope last night?"

"That's lucky money." He Yuyu's face turned serious and he said seriously.

Damn, this girl wants to eat him twice.

"Get up and wait for me to get dressed."

Cai Quanwu had no intention of sleeping now.

After finding the new clothes he bought, Cai Quanwu put them on, took out the money from the pocket of yesterday's cotton-padded jacket, took out a dollar from it and handed it to He Yuyu.

"Here, count your red envelope."

It’s not that Cai Quanwu was generous and didn’t have fifty cents in his pocket.

"Thank you, uncle." He Yuyu took the money and said happily.

Cai Quanwu stuffed the remaining money into the pocket of his new clothes and said disgustedly: "Go to your brother quickly and ask him to get up."

I can't sleep, so why should Silly Zhu sleep? What would it be like to sleep in on the first day of the new year?

He, Cai Quanwu, has such double standards.

He Yuyu said "hmm" and ran out of the room towards Shazhu's room.

Cai Quanwu sorted out his old clothes, put them on the small table next to him, and went out to wash up.

As soon as he left the room, he heard the sound of two brothers and sisters pulling to the limit from Silhu's room, and Cai Quanwu smiled knowingly.

Being a bad guy is so unpretentious.

After Cai Quanwu finished washing, Silhu came out of the room with red eyes, wearing the new set of clothes Cai Quanwu bought, muttering in his mouth.

Seeing Cai Quanwu, Shazhu quickly said: "Uncle, happy New Year."

"Happy New Year."

Cai Quanwu smiled, replied politely, and then joked with Silly Zhu.

"Zhuzi, you don't need me to give you a red envelope."

Seeing Cai Quanwu joking with him, Shazhu grinned and said with a smile: "You can give it."

"That's a nice thought. Hurry up and wash up and go make some dumplings." Cai Quanwu asked with a smile.

"Got it."

Silly Zhu replied, then went to brush his teeth and wash his face.

Silly Zhu's habit of brushing his teeth was forced by Cai Quanwu.

After Silly Zhu left, Cai Quanwu lit up a cigarette and started smoking, thoughts racing in his mind.

There are many taboos on New Year's Day, such as not sweeping the floor and not pouring water outside. It is said that it will sweep away luck and throw away wealth.

Later, these rules were still followed in the countryside, and almost no one in the city cared about putting garbage wherever it was not taken out.

Although Cai Quanwu doesn't care about this very much, he doesn't insist on sweeping the floor and splashing water, he just goes with the flow.
