Siheyuan Back to the 1950s

After He Daqing left, Sun Zhengguo sneakily took his younger brother and sister and Yu Shui to play in the ear room nearby.

He didn't forget that his mother hadn't finished speaking yet. If he didn't run away now, who knows what trouble might happen.

Lin Wencui didn't have time to bother them at the moment. When she saw Sun Dajiang return to the room, she started asking questions.

"Dajiang, what do you mean by He Daqing inviting you to dinner?"

"What else is there to do? It's nothing more than suppressing one group and winning over another. You can't offend everyone in this hospital!"

Sun Dajiang hit the nail on the head and revealed He Daqing's true intention.

"Don't get involved in their little affairs. Let's just live our own lives."

Lin Wencui said worriedly.

"Oh! Don't worry! What they want is an attitude. Why do they want you to get involved? Just don't hold them back."

Lin Wencui felt relieved after hearing this, and then she thought of the children again, but when she looked again, they had already run away. So she gave up, picked up a basin of clothes, and walked towards the pond in the middle courtyard.

On the other side, He Daqing had already made an appointment with Yan Bugui for dinner, so he prepared to go to the backyard to invite Liu Haizhong.

At the gate of Yan's house, Yan Bugui was talking enthusiastically to He Daqing.

"Lao He, since you still have something to do, I won't keep you here. Don't worry, I'll be there on time at noon."

"Okay! I'll go to Lao Liu's house to take a look. Don't send me off."

It was not until He Daqing walked away that Yan Bugui ran back to the house excitedly and started bragging to the third aunt.

As for how Yan Bugui boasted?

He Daqing didn't know, and even if he knew, he wouldn't care. The real purpose of his invitation was just as Sun Dajiang said.

I will win over a group of people and make them remember my kindness. When I get into trouble, I won’t ask you to help me, but you can’t hold me back. That’s all.

At this time, He Daqing had already arrived at the backyard and happened to meet a person, the deaf old lady in the backyard.

He Daqing had complicated feelings towards this deaf old lady. In the past, the relationship between the two families was really good, and some of the food that He Daqing brought back was often sent over.

But ever since the accident happened in his family, the deaf old lady seemed like a different person. She avoided his family like the plague, and her instinct to seek profit and avoid calamity was fully demonstrated.

Otherwise, considering her age, He Daqing had to come to her house to argue with her. Don’t you feel guilty about this?

The deaf old lady also saw He Daqing at this time. Seeing that He Daqing had not greeted her for a long time, she could no longer sit still. She stood up, tried to put on a kind expression, and said with a smile.

"It's Daqing who's here. I heard the magpies calling early in the morning! Come, sit down! It's a good time to chat with my old lady."

"No, I have something to do with Lao Liu, so I don't have time to chat with you."

He Daqing said expressionlessly that he no longer wanted to play along with the deaf old lady. Acting is tiring, okay?

"It's okay. Since you are busy, we can do it next time..."

Before the deaf old lady could finish her words, He Daqing had already walked away, leaving the old lady with a confused look on her face, complaining to herself.

"Why is this guy like this? He must have become stupid after being in jail!"

After complaining, he walked home angrily.

After leaving the deaf old lady, He Daqing came to Liu Haizhong's house and was warmly welcomed by Liu Haizhong. After explaining his purpose, Liu Haizhong happily said that he would arrive on time.

He Daqing returned home after seeing that all his work was done. Now everything was ready, and he was just waiting for Sha Zhu's food.

More than an hour later, Sha Zhu came back with a full basket of vegetables. He passed through the front door without any obstruction.

Everyone was wondering, what happened to Yan Bugui today? Seeing a basket of vegetables, he was indifferent, which was very abnormal.

The question was not answered until lunch time.

Of course, this is something.

Take Sha Zhu for example. When He Daqing saw the dishes, he couldn't help but praise them, saying that they were really fresh.

The father and son didn't waste any time and started killing fish and cutting meat, preparing for lunch.

At 11 o'clock in the morning, He Daqing saw that the time was almost up, so he started to get busy in the kitchen. In less than half an hour, 6 dishes were ready. Together with the braised pork that had been prepared in advance, there were a total of 7 dishes.

Seeing that he had nothing to do, He Daqing took off his apron and said to Sha Zhu.

"Zhu Zi, people are coming soon. I'll go check it out. There's one last dish left. It was you who suggested it, so you should make it."

"Okay! Just wait and see!"

After Sha Zhu finished speaking, he went to the stove, while He Daqing went to the main room.

After a while, Liu Dachuan came over on his bike and brought a bottle of Moutai.

Seeing Liu Dachuan coming, He Daqing immediately came forward to greet him.

"Hey! Lao Liu is here, come in, come in."

"Lao He, I want to congratulate you first! Finally, the family is reunited. This way, Zhuzi will have less pressure in the future."

After Liu Dachuan finished speaking, he handed over the wine he brought.

"Lao Liu, you're spending a lot of money. This is too expensive. I have wine at home. I can't accept it."

Seeing the Moutai liquor brought by Liu Dachuan, He Daqing refused.

"Take it! If you don't take it, I'll turn around and leave."

Liu Dachuan said in pretended anger.

"Okay! Can't I take it? Please come in quickly."

After receiving the wine, the two men went into the house, but before they sat down, someone else came outside.

The person who came back this time was Sun Dajiang, and he brought He Yushui back with him. Of course, Sun Dajiang did not come empty-handed, as he brought a bottle of Fenjiu.

After entering the house, we found that everyone was old acquaintances and started chatting without even introducing ourselves.

After chatting for a while, Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui came over with wine. Of course, no one knew whether water was added to Yan Bugui's steamed bread.

Seeing that everyone was present, He Daqing arranged for everyone to sit at the table.

"Where's Zhuzi? I haven't seen him since I came here?"

Liu Dachuan asked curiously.

"She's cooking in the kitchen. She said she's going to make boiled fish."

After hearing what He Daqing said, Liu Dachuan was full of confusion.

"Boiled fish? How come I have never heard of this dish?"

"You don't know. I thought you taught me that. I haven't heard of it either."

After listening to the conversation between the two, what did Sun Dajiang suddenly think of?

"Isn't it the dish my son made a while ago? I think it's called boiled fish."

"I was wondering if this smell was so familiar, it must be the dish that Zhengguo made. Looks like I'm in for a treat today."

Yan Bugui said excitedly on the side.

After a few people said this, except Sun Dajiang, everyone else was waiting for this dish.

Sha Zhu didn't keep everyone waiting for long. With the last spoonful of hot oil poured on, the aroma of the dish was completely brought out.

"Boiled fish is here!"

"Yes, yes, yes! That's the smell. It's so fragrant."

Yan Bugui shrugged his nose and said with an intoxicated look on his face.

"Master, Second Uncle, Third Uncle, Uncle Dajiang, what are you waiting for? Eat your chopsticks!"

"Yes, yes! Everyone, please don't be polite. Shazhu, pour some wine for the elders."

"okay!"

With the arrival of Sha Zhu, the banquet officially began. He Daqing first gave a speech of thanks and drank the first glass of wine, and then everyone started eating.

"Hmm! This boiled fish is good. It's an imitation of boiled pork slices, right? Zhuzi, how did you come up with this idea?"

Liu Dachuan is worthy of being a master of Sichuan cuisine. He was able to reveal the origin of the dish after just one bite.

"Hehehe! Master, I don't have that ability. This dish was taught to me by Uncle Dajiang's son."

"Oh! Amazing! Section Chief Sun's son is really knowledgeable and talented. He knows everything. He is stealing our chef's job!"

"Hahaha……."

The cheerful laughter made the atmosphere in the house even more lively. Everyone toasted each other, talked and laughed, and tasted the delicious dishes.

Before they knew it, the three bottles of wine on the table had been finished. Seeing this, He Daqing brought two more bottles. Everyone was drunk, so they accepted all the wine and started drinking again.

He Yushui had finished eating long ago, but when she saw the adults drinking again, she quickly returned to her room.

As soon as He Yushui left, a few people let go and had a great time. The noisy drinking sounds from the He family could be heard throughout the entire central courtyard.
