Sumu wood in the quadrangle welcomes spring

"Su...brother, thank you."

Ran Qiuye said, jumped out of the car and planned to enter the yard.

She would never stand at the door and watch Su Mu go.

That would be too awkward, like a young couple.

"Wait a moment."

Su Mu called out to Ran Qiuye.

I got out of the car and took out two fish from the bucket.

Not the biggest, not the smallest.

He handed the two fish tied with hemp rope to Ran Qiuye's hands.

Just like last time.

Grabbing Ran Qiuye's hand, he placed the hemp rope on the palm of her hand.

He also curled up her fingers very naturally.

When the skin touches it, there is a softness and a slight coolness. Anyway, the sapphire wood feels quite comfortable.

Ran Qiuye came back to his senses only after Su Mu rode away.

He looked down at the two fish and bit his lower lip lightly with his teeth.

At this moment, she was still a little confused. She didn't think about how the fish fished out of the bucket had been tied up with hemp rope in advance.

Holding the hemp rope in his hand, he felt the weight of the two fish falling.

Ran Qiuye stood at the door of the courtyard for a while, then turned around and walked into the courtyard.

Just now I was thinking that I must not stand at the door and watch the other person leave.

Who would have known that he didn't act according to common sense, and he was confused again.

But unexpectedly, it looked like she was watching the other person leave...

A little shy, a little annoyed.

But it's not a big amount. It's much better than the last time when I was aggrieved and cried under the quilt.

It is enough to show that Ran Qiuye's adaptability is quite good.

Back to the backyard.

"It looks like your dad got a good harvest."

Ran's mother said in surprise.

Both of them like to eat fish.

I ate it once last time, but today I am so happy that I can continue to eat it, which makes me unhappy.

"Dad didn't catch this..."

Ran Qiuye sighed for a long time and murmured.

Ran's mother was startled.

"Um...could it be that this time, it's still the same young man?"

Ran Qiuye bit her lower lip and nodded.

It can be seen that my daughter nodded with some hesitation.

"Meet him on the way back?"

"He was sitting next to my dad, and he was also fishing. But when I arrived, he was already packing up and leaving."

"Isn't your dad also fishing? Why did you accept the fish he gave me? Ye Zi, you have fallen in love with me too..."

Ran's mother didn't look down on Deng Sanlun's job.

The main reason is that my daughter is still young, not to mention not of legal age for marriage, and she still has to wait for her school registration to be transferred in September to go to school.

This kind of cultural learning must not be delayed.

"No way! It's just...just..."

Ran Qiuye hesitated and said nothing.

There were two or three small fish in my father's bucket, but they didn't look like enough to make a pot of soup.

Witnessed a young man who was more capable at fishing than his father.

How could she say this as a daughter?

After all, this girl Ran Qiuye is very filial.

Ran Mu chuckled.

She knows her daughter, Mo Ruomu, and she also knows something about her husband's situation.

Seeing the girl hesitate like this, I immediately understood the reason.

"Hey, this person is not omnipotent. There are always things he is good at and things he is not good at. Ye Zi, can you steam it and eat it at night?"

"Ah."

……

Su Mu bid farewell to Ran Qiuye and rode back around.

He must go to Xijixiang Alley this time.

Xijixiang Hutong is located on the south side of Di'anmen Street. It is a north-south dead end and does not lead to Di'anmen Street.

It has only one exit, Dong Jixiang Hutong, which is connected to the south.

Jixiang Hutong used to be a place where eunuchs lived outside the palace.

Since the Qianlong period, this place has been called Jixiang Hutong, and it is still in use today.

Because eunuchs cannot get married, the word 'great joy' is taboo, so the word auspiciousness is mostly used by eunuchs.

Before and after the founding of the People's Republic of China, eunuchs and maids sent out from the palace also gathered in Xijixiang Hutong.

As for Dongjixiang Hutong, the only exit, most of it is a staff dormitory requisitioned by Yenching University.

It was here before the founding of the People's Republic of China, and it has not been adjusted since the founding of the People's Republic of China. It has been used like this.

Turn a corner from Cihui Hutong and you will arrive at East Jixiang Hutong. Go straight in and reach West Jixiang Hutong. When you walk to the innermost part, you will turn left and you will find a concave dead end with a depth of only four or five meters.

There is only one door on the left.

This is the home of the old head.

Su Mu got out of the car and knocked on the door.

"coming."

The person who opened the door was a woman with gray hair and a soft southern accent in her voice.

Su Mu was a little ashamed.

In fact, he thought the old man was a living eunuch.

It is said that there are actually many eunuchs alive in the capital these days.

It's just that Su Mu is unlucky and has never seen him before.

I had a few chats with Gutou before. Hearing his shrill voice and living in Xijixiang Hutong, I thought he was this kind of incomplete person.

It's really a bit abrupt.

But luckily I didn't show it, let alone ask about it.

It’s not too late to correct your mentality at this time.

There is a rhythm to the woman's walking, and just looking at her back, Su Mu feels very pleasing to the eye.

If it weren't for the coarse clothes he was wearing.

Su Mu would definitely not think that the other party was an ordinary old woman.

The shape of this yard is very strange.

Although there is only one door, it is more like three separate courtyards connected together.

Perhaps because of a quick glance, Su Mu didn't pay attention. In fact, there should be traces of long-term transformation on the opposite wall.

It turns out there is a door there.

Not only is there a door on the opposite wall, but there is also a small door in the recess directly opposite.

But it was obscured by piles of debris.

But the bluestone pavement inside can still be distinguished from the old and new.

The old man lived on the northernmost side, that is, he came in from the south door, walked around in a big circle, and arrived at the courtyard with the blocked door on the far right.

The yard looked huge, but it was obvious that only these two people lived there.

There is no trace of children.

This made Su Mu couldn't help but have the same thoughts as before.

"My little friend, I've been waiting for you for a long time."

The old man was wearing a long gown, and his hair was sparse but meticulously styled.

Su Mu instantly felt the fact that he was respected.

It may be that the environment and the other party's conversation made Su Mu PUA.

Su Mu unexpectedly raised his hand and saluted.

I don't know if it's right or wrong, I can't tell whether the left hand is in front or the right hand is making a fist.

Anyway, when you get the idea, don’t worry about the details.

The old man laughed and welcomed Sumu into the house.

The room is full of solid wood furniture.
