Siheyuan: A blessed place to start

Wang Fangfang went out and went straight to Dongdan Vegetable Market, which was only half an hour’s walk from Nanluoguxiang Hutong.

These days, a journey of several miles in half an hour is not considered a long distance for those who are nimble on foot.

Everyone who came along walked past.

Not to mention riding a bike on a daily basis, you can go whenever you want!

There is also a bus that goes directly to Dongdan Vegetable Market. This bus arrives at the station in just a few stops, so there is no impact at all.

Wang Fangfang was carrying a basket of vegetables and walking slowly on the road, twisting her waist. Perhaps at this moment, she could feel more relaxed as she was away from her children and without any responsibilities.

"Isn't this Damao's wife? Oh, she's going out!"

As soon as I walked out of the alley, I met an old acquaintance.

Zhang Sulan's family consists of a couple of old people. Their children all live in other places, and they don't have any hobbies throughout the year.

They just like to go to the vegetable market, visit the Bird's Singing Market, play with cats, walk birds, and go fishing. This is their hobby.

Moreover, most people don’t have this hobby. Only those who have nothing to do in their daily lives can have it.

"Aunt Zhang, I'm going to the market to buy a chicken to stew for our Damao! I've lost a lot of weight since I came back from showing movies in the countryside these few days. I need to eat some more."

When Aunt Zhang heard this, she immediately gave a thumbs up.

"This kid is such a good wife and mother. It's rare to have such a heart. I don't know if my daughter-in-law has the heart to take care of my son. If she is half as good as you, I will burn incense and pray to Buddha!"

"Oh, that's not right! It's not right to promote feudal superstition!"

Wang Fangfang felt something was wrong and quickly waved her hand to stop him. Otherwise, if he continued talking, the old lady with bound feet from the inspection team would come over following the sound of his voice.

Hearing the two of them talking like this, who knows what kind of trouble they will cause!

Aunt Zhang then realized that what she said was wrong, and she quickly covered her mouth to signal her to shut up and stopped talking.

Bang Geng was watching his every move about ten meters behind him. From what he could see at the moment, he really couldn't see anything wrong.

Wang Fangfang actually has a very good reputation in the hospital. Although she is Xu Daqian'er's daughter-in-law, she is very low-key in the hospital.

Maybe it’s because I come from the countryside, I can’t chat with these young wives of the same age in the city. Maybe it’s because we don’t have a common language, or maybe it’s because we don’t have many common topics.

On the contrary, she was very happy to chat with the elders who cared about her and did not feel uncomfortable at all.

Wang Fangfang's straightforward personality is also deeply loved by these aunts.

"Fangfang, wait a minute!"

Wang Fangfang was waving goodbye but was stopped by Aunt Zhang.

Hint to him to wait a moment and go back to the house to get something.

Upon hearing this, Wang Fangfang shouted at the top of her voice outside the door, "Thank you, Aunt Zhang, but I can't take your food for free! If you have any good food, just eat it yourself. Otherwise, our family will have enough to eat. Thank you!"

No matter how you say it, these thanks make people feel comfortable.

When Aunt Zhang took out the rare toy from home and went out to take a look, Wang Fangfang was gone.

There was no one there now.

"You kid, I said I would bring you some delicious food this time, why don't you take it?"

Aunt Zhang slapped her thigh angrily. She wanted to chase the person, but her legs and feet were not nimble enough, so she could only sigh awkwardly.

As she was talking, Wang Fangfang had already come to both sides of the street. Because it was New Year's Day, both the usually bustling department stores and major supply and marketing cooperatives were crowded with people.

Because the food stamp system has been overthrown, as long as you have money, you can buy it.

And it’s unlimited.

Unless it is a rare item with extremely small production, it will be limited in quantity.

Wang Fangfang walked on the street, praising her basket, looking here and there from time to time, and bargaining with this person and that person.

Looks like he's very skilled.

He must be an expert at bargaining.

But this selling price is not just a random one.

It's not a random lion's opening.

Wang Fangfang strode forward, humming a little tune, looking very comfortable.

Before I knew it, I had walked to the bottom of the front gate.

It was only a few minutes' walk from Zui Xiang Lou. Looking at the bustling street, Wang Fangfang actually hesitated.

Every time she passed by here, she couldn't help but think of Dachengzi.

Dachengzi is an older brother from the same village. Because of family difficulties when he was young, he had to go out to work and earn a hard-earned living.

So he missed Wang Fangfang's best years and also missed their good marriage.

Originally thought that all this would be over, but unexpectedly, just when Wang Fangfang's life was not satisfactory, he actually showed up.

Appeared in his world, and completely enveloped it.

He had kept that hairpin secretly.

Because Xu Damao knew about this, and she was also troubled by it, she felt guilty every time she saw Dachengzi.

Because of guilty conscience, he didn't even dare to look the other person in the eye.

Only when I pass by the place where he works will I pretend to walk by casually, as if I have walked the path he once walked, smelled the air he smelled, and felt his lingering warmth.

Wang Fangfang knew that it was her mind that was playing tricks on her, so no matter what, she never went directly to find Dachengzi.

“But this time is different, this time it’s Chinese New Year!

Wang Fangfang, who was about to retreat, thought about the New Year and the fact that Dachengzi could not return home and had to stay in the city to work and earn money to protect himself in this way.

Wang Fangfang was so sad that she could not even cry.

Seeing Qianmen Street right in front of her, Wang Fangfang was a little hesitant.

I don’t dare to imagine what the consequences will be if I take this step!

So in an instant, Wang Fangfang retracted her steps, subconsciously took a few steps back, and prepared to turn around and leave.

But just as I turned around, I heard other people talking.

"Hey, did you hear about it? Something happened at Champagne House recently! It seems that a guy as strong as an ox had a fight with the people at Champagne House, and now he's in police station."

Get into trouble?

Champagne House? Zui Xiang House?

She was very familiar with this place. She heard people in the courtyard talking about these two restaurants all day long.

But when I think about it carefully, I realize that there was actually a fight.

And the most important thing is that the strong and healthy people started fighting?

Isn't this just...

This won’t work, I have to go see what’s going on.

Some time ago, Bang Geng caused a scene in a restaurant and went to the police station after a disagreement. Qin Huairu went crazy because of this. All these things happened in front of him. Now when he heard others talking about it, his first reaction was to choose to believe it.
