Siheyuan: I just want to live

The next morning, Chen Feng did not get up very early because he did not have to go to work today. It was nearly nine o'clock when Chen Feng got out of bed in a daze.

Chen Feng's sleep quality was not affected by the presence of other people in his house, and he slept very comfortably that night. He put on his clothes and walked out of the bedroom, still sleepy.

The moment Chen Feng stepped into the living room, his mind suddenly cleared up, because there was a woman in the living room with her back to Chen Feng, cleaning the table! Who is this? How could there be a woman in my house?

After his mind became a little clearer, Chen Feng quickly remembered that Sun Xiaojuan's family moved in yesterday because of the snowstorm.

Sun Xiaojuan turned around when she heard the door open behind her and saw Chen Feng had already gotten up and walked out of the bedroom. So she said, "Chen Feng, get up! I've saved breakfast for you and it's heating up in the pot! Hurry up and wash up and have breakfast!"

Chen Feng was stunned again when he heard Sun Xiaojuan's words. He felt something was wrong. But maybe it was because he just woke up, his brain obviously didn't catch up with his mouth and said, "Okay! I understand."

Then he walked out of the room with the wash basin and toiletries. As soon as he walked into the yard, Chen Feng realized what was wrong with the conversation just now. He wanted to slap himself in the face, because he had obviously said something wrong just now.

He shook his head and continued walking towards the pond in the middle courtyard. Just as he entered the middle courtyard, he saw Jia Zhang and an old lady from the Han family chatting animatedly in front of Shazhu's door. When they saw Chen Feng, they immediately stopped talking.

Chen Feng ignored them and continued to walk to the pool to wash up. Anyway, it was Jia Zhang who gossiped in the yard every day, but he didn't see that Jia Zhang was secretly winking at Aunt Han behind his back.

After Chen Feng quickly washed up, he returned to his home in the backyard. After seeing Chen Feng leave, Jia Zhang started chatting with Aunt Han again.

When Chen Feng got home, he found that Chen Xiaojuan had already returned to her room. He brought out the meal that Sun Xiaojuan had left for him from the kitchen and started to eat. The breakfast was simple, stir-fried cabbage and pickled vegetables, and the steamed buns left over from yesterday. It tasted great!

After eating, Chen Feng washed the dishes, then carried his schoolbag, took the top bag, and pushed his bicycle out the door. When he reached the middle courtyard, the two gossipers stopped again. Chen Feng was a little confused. What were they talking about? Mysterious?

Chen Feng had other things to do, so he didn't pay attention and went straight out of the courtyard. He rode his bicycle towards Dashilan. When passing by a repair shop, Chen Feng used his bicycle as collateral to borrow a cart from the owner.

Pulling the cart to the door of Tong Ren Tang, Chen Feng stepped in. The old doctor was still sitting in the office. He walked directly to the old doctor's desk, knocked on the table and said, "Old sir, do you still remember me?"

The old doctor raised his head, glanced at Chen Feng and said, "It's you! You're here to get the tiger bone wine! Do you have enough money? Okay, come with me!"

Chen Feng nodded immediately after hearing the old doctor's question. Seeing Chen Feng like this, the old doctor stood up and took him to the counter to pay the balance. Then he took Chen Feng to the back warehouse to look at the tiger bone wine.

When they arrived at the warehouse, the old doctor said to Chen Feng, "These are the wines I made for you, packed in jars of ten kilograms each. Do you have the tools to pack them? Do you want us to help you send them back?"

Chen Feng waved his hand and said, "No need, I pulled the cart here myself and I can move it myself. Besides, the wine storage is nearby."

"That's fine! You can move it slowly here! I'll go back to the front and sit in the hall."

After saying that, he turned around and left. He was not afraid that Chen Feng would have to move more things, because this warehouse was filled with tiger bone wine made for Chen Feng and nothing else.

After Chen Feng saw the old doctor leave, he didn't say anything more and just picked up two jars of wine and walked out. It took a while to fill up the car.

He pulled the cart to the deserted dead end where he had taken the tiger bones last time, and stored all the wine on the cart into the space. Then he pulled the cart back to Tong Ren Tang and repeated what he had just done to continue loading the cart.

I was busy until about 3:00 pm, and finally finished pulling 5,000 kilograms of wine. I just bought some food on the street for lunch, and didn't go home to eat.

After finishing the work, I returned the cart to the boss and exchanged it for my own bicycle. Then I went to the bookstore and bought a book called "Shorthand Writing of Chinese Characters" published by Shanghai Culture Publishing House and two notebooks.

Then he rode his bicycle towards the courtyard, and on the way he filled his flour bag with more than ten kilograms of flour in an empty alley. He then put a ten-kilogram grass carp and two pheasants into the sack in the space, and tied them to the back seat of the bicycle when no one was around.

After everything was ready, Chen Feng continued to go home. It was almost half past five when he returned to the courtyard. When he passed by the middle courtyard, a few aunts looked at Chen Feng with strange eyes as he passed by with a cart.

Chen Feng still didn't care, just because they were surprised to see what he bought!

Back in the backyard, Chen Feng pushed his bicycle into the main room. After unloading his things, Chen Feng said to Sun Xiaojuan, who was picking vegetables at the kitchen door, "Here is some white flour, and there are pheasants and fish in the sack. When you cook in the future, please cook mine as well! I am too lazy to cook by myself anymore."

"Okay, it's not a big deal."

Sun Xiaojuan agreed naturally, then stood up, opened the sack and took a look, then looked up at Chen Feng and said, "Such a big fish! How did you buy it?"

"I'm just lucky. Put these things away and use them as my new home meal for the next few days. I'm going back to the house first. Call me when it's time to eat."

Chen Feng found an excuse to deal with Sun Xiaojuan's question and then fled back into the house. He was afraid that Sun Xiaojuan would ask him something else and he wouldn't know how to explain it.

Sun Xiaojuan stood there with her hand stretched out, and opened her mouth, obviously wanting to say something, but when she saw that Chen Feng had already entered the bedroom, she had no choice but to stop talking and went back to pick vegetables and prepare dinner in silence.

After Chen Feng returned to the bedroom, he locked the door, went into the room immediately, took a comfortable hot bath, then came out and picked up the "Chinese Character Quick Writing Method" he had just bought and started reading it, writing with a pencil as he read.

Before he knew it, Sun Xiaojuan outside the house had already prepared the meal and knocked on Chen Feng's bedroom door to call him to eat.

Chen Feng came out and saw that the table was already filled with steamed buns made from flour and some fried potatoes and cabbage. Everyone was waiting for him to come out to eat, so Chen Feng sat down at the table without any hesitation, picked up the steamed buns and invited everyone to eat.

After dinner, Sun Xiaojuan rushed to wash the dishes, and Chen Feng had no choice but to follow her. He went back to his bedroom to continue practicing calligraphy, then turned off the lights and went to sleep. He was exhausted from moving five thousand kilograms of wine today, and fell asleep soon after he touched the pillow.

The next day, Chen Feng locked himself in his room to practice calligraphy after breakfast, and did not go anywhere for the whole morning. It was not until almost noon that he could no longer hold it in, and then he went out to the public toilet in the alley outside the courtyard.

When passing by the middle courtyard, it was still the same place as yesterday. Jia Zhang and Han's aunt were whispering about something. But today there were a few more aunts, some from this courtyard and some from nearby courtyards.

Seeing Chen Feng coming out, everyone fell silent. Chen Feng was in a hurry to go to the toilet, so he didn't pay attention to them. He just skipped them and went straight to the public toilet outside the courtyard to flush.

When Chen Feng came back from draining the water, he saw the collective silence again. This made Chen Feng curious, and he did not stop as usual, but went straight back to the backyard, through the wall of Sha Zhu's house, and started to eavesdrop.

"If you ask me, Chen Feng and that Sun Xiaojuan must have a special relationship." It was Jia Zhang's voice.

"Why is it not a common method?"

The voice of Aunt Han was 70% surprised and 30% questioning. I didn't expect Aunt Han to be a good supporting actor.

"Chen Feng and that Sun Xiaojuan must have a shady relationship! Maybe they have been sleeping in the same bed for the past two days!"

Jia Zhang started talking nonsense again.

"How did you determine that? Did you eavesdrop at night?"

This voice doesn't sound familiar, it should be someone from another courtyard.

"Do you really need to eavesdrop? Let me tell you something! Last time my family asked Chen Feng to lend his house to us, he refused to lend it to us! This is in the same courtyard. You think the house collapsed just because of a little snow? Chen Feng lent his house to them without saying anything. What else could this have to do with Sun Xiaojuan?"

Jia Zhang continued to slander Chen Feng and Sun Xiaojuan shamelessly. Just as Chen Feng was about to leave to the Central Courtyard to settle accounts with Jia Zhang, he heard the voice of Aunt Han's agreement.

"Yes, yes, yes! Sister-in-law Jia is right! I also think there must be something going on between them."

Chen Feng was so angry when he heard this that he took out the 32mm rebar from the space and rushed to the Jia family in the middle courtyard. Under the puzzled gazes of several aunties, he kicked open the door of the Jia family.

Then Chen Feng smashed the kitchen, smashing the frying pan, denting the aluminum pot, breaking all the ceramics, and knocking over the cabinets to turn them into firewood.

After smashing the kitchen, the living room was not spared either. The table had two legs broken, the chairs were all torn into pieces, and he didn't forget to smash all the glass before leaving the house.

After leaving Jia's house, Chen Feng went into the Han's house next door. He started from the kitchen and ended by knocking on the glass.

Then he stood at the door of the Han family to rest. He was a little exhausted from smashing the two houses just now. It seemed that he needed more training.

After Chen Feng had finished smashing everything, the middle-aged ladies finally reacted. Jia Zhang looked at her home, which had been smashed to pieces by Chen Feng, as if she had just woken up from a dream.

"Chen Feng! I'm going to fight you!"

Jia Zhang was seen bending her waist and lowering her head. She rushed towards Chen Feng like a pig. Seeing her rushing towards him, Chen Feng quickly dodged to the side.

Chen Feng dodged, but Jia Zhang was tripped by the threshold, fell into Han's room and fainted.

Aunt Han stood at the door and looked at the mess in the house. She asked sternly, "Chen Feng, what right did you have to destroy my house? If you don't give me an explanation today, I will see that my man will tear you down when he comes back!"

"Why? Because you ruined my reputation! Yesterday I saw you and Jia Zhang whispering together, and today you brought so many people with you! I'm going to smash your house!"

"Still talking! Why don't you talk anymore? You're always gossiping about other people's affairs! You deserve to be punished!"

Chen Feng looked up at the steel bar and said fiercely, "I'll be waiting at home today! If you have the guts, let your man come! Let's see who's afraid of who!"

After saying that, Chen Feng picked up the steel bar and pointed at the aunties who were watching and yelled, "What are you looking at? Why don't you get out of here! You want me to go to your house too, right?"

After being yelled at by Chen Feng, the aunts scattered like birds and beasts, and all ran away. Chen Feng was very satisfied. He turned around and spat at the Han family, then left the middle courtyard and returned to the backyard.
