Siheyuan: I just want to live

After Chen Feng entered the room, he saw some noise coming from the kitchen, so he said to Jin Ming, "Jin Ming! Give the lunch box to your sister."

"There are two duck legs in the lunch box. Ask your sister to heat them up. I'll feed them later."

When Jin Ming heard what Chen Feng said, he immediately responded, "Hey! I know, brother-in-law!"

Then, Jin Ming parked his bicycle, took out his lunch box, and went into the kitchen.

Jin Ling, who was cooking in the kitchen, heard what Chen Feng said in the main room and immediately complained, "Husband, you're wasting money again!"

"They are so young, how can we give them meat? I will cook the meal later, can't I just feed them some porridge?"

Chen Feng didn't get angry when he heard Jin Ling's complaint. He just smiled and said to Jin Ling in the kitchen, "They are not small anymore. You can feed them some meat to supplement their protein!"

When Jin Ling heard what Chen Feng said, she curled her lips in the kitchen, and then said to Chen Feng, "What protein? You are the only one who has so many new words!"

"When Jin Ming and I were their age, we couldn't even eat white flour porridge. We could only drink mixed flour porridge. We're not living well now!"

"I think you just spoil them too much! What protein!"

Chen Feng listened to Jin Ling's words in the kitchen, but he didn't get angry. He just laughed.

It was also during this era that people were more leisurely and supplies were tight. People were lucky enough to have enough food to avoid starving to death, so there was no need to talk about nutritional supplements.

Seeing that Chen Feng in the main room was not arguing with her, Jin Ling stopped talking.

But she still put the duck legs that Chen Feng brought back into the pot and heated them up together with the steamed buns.

Chen Feng was playing with the two children in the main room. Jin Ming saw Chen Feng playing with the children, so he hurried back to his room to do his homework.

Chen Feng is not at home today, so Jin Ming helped her sister take care of the children as soon as she got home from school. She hasn't finished her homework yet. If she doesn't hurry up, she doesn't know when she will finish it today.

Soon, Jin Ling prepared dinner. Because she was cooking tonight, unlike Chen Feng, Jin Ling only fried cabbage and meat. The staple food was steamed buns and a pot of white flour porridge.

In fact, Chen Feng never cooked porridge before he had children. He just drank some boiled water after meals.

After having a child, they need to feed the child some complementary food, so Chen Feng’s family has just started cooking porridge.

When Jin Ling brought the food to the table, Chen Feng picked up the duck leg and was about to tear it into pieces to feed the child. At this time, Jin Ling suddenly took the duck leg from Chen Feng's hand.

Chen Feng was also surprised when Jin Ling took the duck leg from his hand, but before Chen Feng could ask, Jin Ling spoke first.

"Honey, let me feed the baby today! You hurry up and eat. Liu Guangfu just came to inform us that there will be a hospital-wide meeting tonight. You should hurry up after dinner!"

Chen Feng was a little confused. Why was they holding a meeting during such a non-holiday season?

So Chen Feng asked Jin Ling, "Has anything happened in the hospital? Why do we need to hold a meeting for the entire hospital?"

Seeing Jin Ming asking, Jin Ling said, "I don't know either. Why don't you finish your meal quickly and then ask for directions?"

After hearing what Jin Ling said, Chen Feng nodded and said, "Okay, I'll eat first. You can feed the child today!"

Soon, Chen Feng ate two steamed buns in no time. After he was full, Chen Feng went out and walked towards the central courtyard.

When they arrived at the middle courtyard, many people had already gathered at the entrance of Shazhu. Chen Feng took a quick look and found Xu Damao and his wife sitting on a bench.

So Chen Feng squeezed next to Xu Damao and patted him.

Xu Damao saw someone taking a photo of him, so he turned around and saw that it was Chen Feng. He immediately said, "Chen Feng, you're here! Come and sit down!"

As he said that, Xu Damao squeezed towards his wife to make a place for Chen Feng.

Seeing this, Chen Feng didn't hesitate and sat down next to Xu Damao.

After sitting down, Chen Feng took out a cigarette from his pocket, handed it to Xu Damao, and then asked, "Xu Damao, what's going on today? Why is there another meeting of the whole hospital?"

When Xu Damao heard what Chen Feng said, he said with a gloomy face, "Hey! It was me who requested to hold this whole institute meeting today!"

When Chen Feng heard Xu Damao's words, he was also stunned, and his hand that was about to light a cigarette paused, but he quickly recovered and asked again.

"What's going on? Do you have something important to say? Why do you want to call a meeting of the whole institute?"

When Xu Damao saw Chen Feng asking, he angrily said, "It's all because of Sha Zhu!"

When Chen Feng heard Xu Damao say it was because of Sha Zhu, Chen Feng did not respond immediately, but listened quietly to Xu Damao continue talking.

At this time, Xu Damao continued, "Chen Feng, you also know that two days ago, I went to the commune below to show a movie. The comrades in the commune saw that I was working hard and gave me two old hens to help me replenish my energy."

When Chen Feng heard Xu Damao's words, his expression remained calm on the surface, but he still curled his lips in his heart. What do you mean by giving you two chickens?

It's obviously what you wanted, right? Now that the three years of hardship have just passed, the countryside is not yet rich enough to give away old hens casually.

However, Chen Feng only thought about these in his mind and did not say them in front of Xu Damao and his wife. After all, these were all unspoken rules and there was no need to bring them out.

Xu Damao added, "I couldn't bear to eat the chicken I brought back, but Shazhu was so good! He actually stole my chicken and stewed it for himself!"

"And even after I caught him, he still refused to admit it!"

After listening to Xu Damao's words, Chen Feng also understood what was going on.

Chen Feng guessed that the chicken in Xu Damao's house was not stolen by Sha Zhu, but most likely by Bang Geng.

This corresponds exactly to the scene at the beginning of the TV series.

So Chen Feng did not join Xu Damao in denouncing Sha Zhu, but instead asked Xu Damao, "Da Mao! Is there any reception at your factory today?"

Xu Damao was also very surprised when he heard Chen Feng's words. He didn't know why Chen Feng asked that, so he said, "Yes! I am the guest today!"

Seeing Xu Damao's answer, Chen Feng asked again, "Is there any chicken at today's banquet?"

Hearing Chen Feng's words again, Xu Damao became even more confused, and said blankly, "There is a dish of chicken stewed with mushrooms. What's wrong, Chen Feng? Is there a problem?"

Seeing that Xu Damao had answered, Chen Feng said to him mysteriously, "Damo! You may have wronged Shazhu. It is possible that he did not steal your chickens."

When Xu Damao heard what Chen Feng said, he immediately said excitedly, "Shazhu didn't steal my chicken, so where did his chicken come from?"

Seeing Xu Damao so excited, Chen Feng smiled and said, "Today's steel mill reception dinner has chicken stewed with mushrooms, and the chicken was chopped up and eaten by you. How do you know whether he served a whole chicken or half a chicken?"

Xu Damao finally understood, and then asked Chen Feng in a low voice, "Chen Feng, are you saying that Sha Zhu stole the chickens from the factory?"

When Chen Feng heard Xu Damao ask this, he just smiled and said nothing.

Lou Xiao'e on the side said hesitantly, "Chen Feng, Sha Zhu doesn't have that much courage, does he? The factory belongs to the state, how dare Sha Zhu steal the state's things?"

Xu Damao smiled coldly when he heard what his wife said, and then said, "Shazhu is so brave! What is there that he dare not do?"

"When he was selling buns, he was chased by someone with a gun across half the city, but he was not afraid. What do you think he is afraid of?"

After Xu Damao finished speaking, he asked Chen Feng, "Chen Feng, if it wasn't Sha Zhu who stole my chicken, then who stole it?"

When Chen Feng saw Xu Damao asking this, he rolled his eyes at him and said, "Da Mao! Why do you care who stole the chicken? Anyway, Sha Zhu doesn't dare to explain the origin of his chicken."

"Just think that it was Shazhu who stole it! Then let Shazhu compensate you a hundred or eighty! Isn't it enough to make up for your own losses?"

When Xu Damao heard what Chen Feng said, he thought about it and realized that his chicken was definitely gone, so he might as well cheat Sha Zhu!

Suddenly Xu Damao seemed to remember something, so he asked Chen Feng again, "Chen Feng, what if Sha Zhu doesn't agree to pay so much money?"

When Chen Feng heard Xu Damao's question, he patted Xu Damao on the shoulder and said, "Damo! As long as Shazhu admits that he stole the chicken."

"If he doesn't agree to pay the compensation, then you should report it to the police. By then, it won't be as simple as paying the money. You might even end up in jail and lose your job!"

When Xu Damao heard Chen Feng's words, his eyes lit up instantly. He quickly said to Chen Feng, "Chen Feng, this is a good idea! I will do as you say!"

Seeing that Xu Damao agreed, Chen Feng said with a smile, "Okay! I'll go to the side first and won't disturb your performance!"

After saying that, Chen Feng stood up and went into the crowd.

After Chen Feng left, Lou Xiao'e said to Xu Damao, "Da Mao! Do we really have to send Sha Zhu in for a chicken? We don't need a chicken at home!"

When Xu Damao heard what his wife said, he waved his hand nonchalantly and said, "How is that possible? At most, I was just trying to scare Sha Zhu and get some more money!"

"But Chen Feng is really ruthless! If it was Chen Feng who lost the chicken today, the police would have been here by now, and Sha Zhu would have been in jail almost as well."

After hearing what Xu Damao said, Lou Xiao asked Xu Damao in confusion, "Da Mao, why did Chen Feng do such a cruel thing to Sha Zhu?"

Seeing Lou Xiao'e asking, Xu Damao chuckled and said, "Who made Shazhu so rude and crazy that he dared to tease Jin Ling?"

Lou Xiao'e was also stunned when she heard Xu Damao's words, and then asked, "Did Sha Zhu also tease Jin Ling?"

Seeing her say that, Xu Damao said, "That happened before you got married. If it weren't for me, Sha Zhu would have died a long time ago."

"That time Chen Feng chased Sha Zhu with a submachine gun and beat him. If I hadn't stopped Chen Feng, Sha Zhu would have been buried in the ground!"

When Xu Damao talked about this, his face was full of pride.

He turned to Lou Xiao'e and said, "Wife! You should stay away from Sha Zhu from now on! He is not a good person!"

"Because of the incident of flirting with Jin Ling, all the matchmakers on the street are now unwilling to matchmake for Sha Zhu, so he is still single."

When Lou Xiao'e heard what Xu Damao said, she nodded and said, "Yes! Damao, I understand! I will stay away from him!"
