Siheyuan, the opening gun is aimed at Yi Zhonghai

It took a long time before he recovered.

But given the current situation, I have to clean up the mess. I can't even sleep.

Of course, Zhou Zheng was now full of energy and didn't think it was a hassle. He found a wooden barrel for fetching water, went to the well and fetched several buckets of hot water, which he poured into the big iron pot. He then went to get several bundles of firewood and prepared to boil water.

The smell coming from his body from time to time was so bad that Zhou Zheng found a book in the study, tore off a small piece from an unimportant title page, soaked it in water, pinched it into a small ball and stuffed it into his nostrils. Only then did he stop smelling the bad smell.

Zhou Yunhai went into the mountains to chop firewood last winter. After drying in the shade for several months, the firewood was very easy to catch fire.

Zhou Zheng lit the stove without much effort, and soon hot steam came out of the iron pot.

After waiting for about 20 minutes, the water in the iron pot was not boiling, but the temperature was just right.

There was no wooden tub for bathing at home, but Zhou Yunhai had brought back an iron basin from the factory. It was said that it was used to drain water when slaughtering pigs in the kitchen, so it could be used as a bathtub.

Zhou Zheng scooped hot water into the iron basin and quickly stripped himself naked.

Fortunately, Zhou Zheng was only a 12-year-old child, so it was just right for him to take a bath in an iron basin.

The coal stove in the room was burning brightly, so it didn't feel cold. Zhou Zheng sat in the iron basin and scrubbed his body carefully.

After a while, the water turned dark black, and those who didn't know would think it was half a basin of ink.

Zhou Zheng's skin also seemed to have lost its color, and was like a peeled hard-boiled egg.

As the saying goes, a white complexion can hide three uglinesses. After Zhou Zheng, who was already very pretty, became more like a porcelain doll walking out of a painting after her skin became fair.

The time came to eight o'clock in the evening.

Zhou Zheng had already taken a shower and changed into new clothes. These were the new clothes Zhou Yunhai bought for him during the Chinese New Year, but he usually didn't want to wear them. This time, it was a good deal for Zhou Zheng, who had traveled through time.

Nights in the 50s were still too boring.

There are no entertainment facilities and no friends in the yard.

There are still 12 hours, 37 minutes and 45 seconds until the sign-in function is officially opened. The more I look forward to it, the slower time feels like it goes.

At this moment, there was a knock on Zhou Zheng's door.

Boom boom boom!

If it was in the past, he might not have been able to hear it, but after taking the Qi and Blood Pill and practicing Bajiquan, his ears and eyes became sharper, and he was able to hear the faint knock on the door.

Although he didn't like the animals in the yard, he still planned to go and take a look.

He put on his cotton jacket, left the house, walked across the yard and came to the gate.

Then I heard Xu Damao's voice in a hoarse voice outside the door.

"Zhengzi, I'm your brother Damao, please open the door."

If it was daytime, Zhou Zhengyi would definitely not open the door for him, but after practicing Bajiquan, he was not so cautious anymore. Instead, he was somewhat expectant, but he didn't know what he was expecting.

He unbolted the door and opened it a crack.

Xu Damao slipped in quickly.

He was holding a half bottle of wine in his hand and had a roast duck between his armpits.

On the long face are a pair of bright little eyes that roll around and look funny no matter how you look at them.

"Brother Damao, what are you doing?"

Xu Damao shook his hair, looking very cool.

"Hey! Brother, I'm here to keep you company. Hey, my dad went to the countryside today and didn't come back. It's boring to be alone in the backyard, so I came to look for you!"

Xu Damao was born in 1937 and was only 17 years old that year.

When Zhou Yunhai was alive, Xu Damao always ran to the East Cross Courtyard because he liked to listen to Zhou Yunhai bragging.

Speaking of this, Zhou Zheng really wanted to complain.

Although Zhou Yunhai is the deputy chief of the security department of the third steel rolling mill and sounds serious, he has a habit of bragging when he drinks. He speaks very convincingly and fooled Xu Damao.

It’s a pity that this person no longer exists in this world.

Xu Damao frowned when he saw Zhou Zheng was a little dazed.

"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and invite me in to sit down. Didn't you see that I bought you a roast duck?"

Zhou Zheng came to his senses and quickly closed the door.

"Hey, sorry, Brother Damao, I suddenly thought of something."

Xu Damao raised his eyebrows: "Hey, you kid!"

Zhou Zheng thought it would be good to have someone to talk to, so he quickly said, "Come on, Brother Damao, please come in."

As he said this, he led the way for Xu Damao.

As soon as he entered the house, Xu Damao stamped his feet, exhaled a puff of white air, and sniffed his nose.

"I'm telling you, kid, did you poop in your den? It stinks!"

Zhou Zheng was also a little embarrassed and didn't know what to say.

"No! Maybe it's because it hasn't been cleaned for a few days! Just open the window for a while."

Xu Damao smiled teasingly.

"Zhengzi, don't learn from Shazhu. You are still young. It will hurt your body if you masturbate too much."

Zhou Zheng's face turned red.

"Brother Damao, please stop talking nonsense! I didn't do that."

Xu Damao's expression became even more teasing.

"Oh my, you're not shy at all, hurry up and open the window to let it out, it smells really bad."

As he spoke, he took out a plate from the dish rack and put the roast duck on the plate.

The roast duck is already cut into small slices of even thickness.

He picked up a piece and put it into his mouth, making two "tsk tsk" sounds.

"Tsk tsk, you may not believe it, but after running two miles, the roast duck is still hot."

Zhou Zheng opened the window and found a wine glass for Xu Damao. The redness on his face faded away. It was really because Xu Damao's words were too obscene and made him feel embarrassed.

Otherwise, why do people say Xu Damao is a bad guy? He is only 12 years old now. Xu Damao starts talking to him about all these nonsense. Which good person would say that?

Xu Damao took the wine glass, unscrewed the bottle and poured a glass.

"You are quite perceptive, boy!"

The wine is Xifeng Liquor and the roast duck is Quanjude.

Zhou Zheng doesn't drink, but he wanted to try Quanjude's food, so he picked up a piece of roast duck from the plate and put it into his mouth.

It is fat but not greasy, fresh and salty, and tastes great. Just chewing it twice will make your mouth water.

"good to eat!"

Xu Damao placed a glass of wine and heard a "chiu" sound.

He pursed his lips, looking as if he was still unsatisfied.

"If it's delicious, eat more. Brother Damao bought it especially for you."

Zhou Zheng's expression changed!

"Brother Damao, are you okay?"

Xu Damao was suddenly stunned, and then he didn't say anything, just looked at Zhou Zheng deeply.

After a long moment, he sighed and spoke.

"Zhengzi, you have lost your conscience when you say that. No matter who your brother Damao is sorry for, he will never be sorry for your family. Don't think badly of others!"

Zhou Zheng also felt some inexplicable guilt in his heart.

Xu Damao continued, "Brother Damao can understand you. Your family has suffered such a great change, so it's not surprising that you are on guard. In this yard, if you are not on guard, you will probably be eaten to the bone."

He said as he poured another glass of wine.

"You will be the one to set up your own household from now on. Brother Damao will also talk to you about this."

Tweet!

Haha!

"Living in this courtyard, there are undoubtedly only a few families you need to be wary of: the Yan family in the front courtyard, the Jia family, the Yi family, the He family in the middle courtyard, the Liu family in the backyard, and the old lady's family. You don't have to worry about the rest of the families. If you don't provoke them, they won't take the initiative to provoke you."

Zhou Zheng nodded.

Xu Damao narrowed his eyes and sighed.

"Hmph, the He family, that's Sha Zhu, otherwise everyone would say he's stupid. In the past, he was considered a righteous man. At that time, our country hadn't been liberated yet, and there were always some robbers in Beixinqiao. It was also unlucky that I encountered such a person. Fortunately, it was Zhu who met him that time, otherwise I would definitely be dead. This is a life-saving grace, and I will never forget it. Later, Sha Zhu's father He Daqing was tricked away by the old deaf woman in the backyard. I heard it with my own ears, and I told Sha Zhu that the old lady in the backyard was not a good person. Grandma! Sha Zhu not only didn't believe me, but also beat me up. If I hadn't argued with him, I would have killed him! Grandma!"

As he spoke, he filled another glass of wine.

Tweet!

Haha!

"Hey, Masako, you know what, your cup is the best for drinking. One chirp is enough to drink a cup, and you won't get drunk. Chirp! Hahahaha, what was I talking about?"

Zhou Zheng quickly reminded him.

"Kill him!"

Xu Damao laughed: "Yes! Kill him!"
