Siheyuan: Get the system at the beginning

Chapter 10: First meeting with Xu Damao

On a cold day, Zhang Xiaoyan washed the boiling kettle and the newly made iron pot in the pool in the yard. If it was cold water, it would definitely not be clean.

Fortunately, there was boiling water, but the effect was not very great.

"There is sand here. The oil in the new pot is too thick to clean. You can use sand to rub the pot to clean it, and then wash it with hot water."

Zhang Xiaoyan looked at the greasy pot and washed it several times but it still wasn't clean. After all, there was no dishwashing liquid at that time. As for laundry detergent, she hadn't bought it yet and didn't know if it was available. There was no soap either because she didn't have the soap ticket, so she couldn't buy it. Besides, that thing couldn't be used to wash the pot!

Just as I was thinking of a solution, I heard a man's voice coming from the side. It sounded familiar. I looked over and saw a long face. Anyone who has seen the Siheyuan knows that the owner of this long face is Xu Damao.

Xu Damao had just returned from the countryside, pushing a bicycle with various mountain products hanging on it. When he passed the front yard, he did not meet the goalkeeper. As for the three aunts, they had just watched a lively show and were very disappointed. They were now warming themselves by the fire in the house, so they accidentally missed the opportunity to take advantage of the situation.

Xu Damao was also wondering, the third uncle hadn't gotten off work yet, but the third aunt wasn't guarding the door either, which was really rare. He was naturally happy that he hadn't been taken advantage of once, and he happily pushed his bicycle home.

As soon as he walked through the moon gate, he saw a young female comrade standing by the pool behind him, seemingly washing something. When he got closer, he found out the reason for the problem. He knew at a glance that this was also a guy with little life experience. His heart immediately became active. After all, he was lustful by nature, especially when the other party was good-looking, he wanted to hook up with her.

"Hello! I'm Xu Damao, a projectionist at the steel mill. I saw you standing here just now, and I thought you might have some difficulties, so I came to see you.

Wow, this is a new pot! It's just been cooked! There's sand under the pool, you can put some coarse sand in it and rub it to clean the pot quickly."

Only then did Xu Damao see the other person's appearance clearly, and he felt even happier. He didn't even put down the bicycle in his hand. Let's do it here!

"Oh! Hello! My name is Zhang Xiaoyan and I just moved here today. Thank you for your suggestion."

Zhang Xiaoyan thought this was indeed a method. There was indeed some coarse sand under the pool, so she followed the other party's method, grabbed a few handfuls of sand in the pot, wrapped the dishcloth in her hands and rubbed it back and forth. After a while, she saw the effect.

When Xu Damao saw that the other party accepted his proposal, the corners of his mouth cracked all the way to his ears.

"Why are you being so polite? If you have anything to say, just call me. You have to be busy first. I'll go back and clean up. I've been to the countryside to show movies these past two days. I just got back and I'm so tired. Ezi! Ezi, I'm back. What are you doing? You closed the door in broad daylight."

Xu Damao greeted her and then pushed the cart back, calling his wife's name. However, there was no response after a long time, and he felt a little uncomfortable.

His father is also a projectionist and every time he goes home, he has a wife and children and a warm bed.

Eight out of ten times he came home, the door was either locked or his wife was asleep. I wonder how this wife was raised? She had nothing to do all day except sleeping, especially in the winter when she came home to a cold house. Every time he saw this, he had the urge to curse.

However, he only dared to say this in his heart. After all, the wife he married was a real rich lady. If it weren't for the current trend, he really wouldn't be able to marry her.

After all, Zhang Xiaoyan and he are neighbors, so after saying hello, they went their separate ways. But speaking of Lou Xiaoe, I didn't see her yesterday or today, so I guess she went back to her parents' home!

Otherwise, if it was as noisy as today, I would definitely come out to watch the fun.

There is also the deaf old lady next door, who was portrayed as an ancestor in the original plot. I looked at the deaf old lady's window curiously and found a figure inside. Who else could it be besides the deaf old lady?

This is not a person who is content with her lot. She had been watching Siheyuan before, and the people in the team were very dissatisfied. She also visited several comment areas, and someone dug out the identity of the old lady. The plot said that this old lady was a family member of a martyr, but in the end, there was never a single photo of the martyr's children on the camera, and there was no other evidence corresponding to her identity.

Even though there is no policy to issue "House of Glory" house numbers yet, the street office always organizes activities to send warmth to the orphans or families of these martyrs during festivals and holidays.

But the deaf old lady is just a five-guarantee household. Apart from some benefits provided by the policy, she has nothing else.

Besides, how could an old lady with bound feet use her bound feet to deliver shoes to the Red Army? If the rumor in the courtyard was that the old lady made shoes for the Red Army and had them delivered to them, it might be believed. After all, at that time, the masses really respected our troops, and many people made great contributions to winning the war. Not to mention making shoes, they would even risk their lives.

Besides, anyone who paid attention to that period knows that the situation in Beijing was resolved peacefully, and our troops did not even enter the city, so there was no such thing as sending shoes to welcome the troops.

Another point is that the old lady often calls Mrs. Jia "Zhang Yatou" and says that she was the ancestor here before she came in. If you count the days, Mrs. Jia has lived here for more than 30 years, and that big fool lives in the main house in the courtyard of the quadrangle, so the relationship here is very intriguing.

Some people also say that the old lady was a concubine of a prince in the late Qing Dynasty. He Daqing, Yi Zhonghai, Xu Fugui, and Jia Pozi's husband Lao Jia, a character who only exists in legends, are all servants under the old lady. He Daqing can cook, so he is the cook. Yi Zhonghai, Xu Fugui, and Lao Jia should be followers like Xiao Si.

Otherwise, how could it be possible that only these few families have the property rights of the house among the more than 20 households in the courtyard? Among them, He Yuzhu should have a close relationship with the deaf old woman, otherwise, he would not live in the main house of the courtyard.

But these are just speculations, who knows the details?

Anyway, just don't bother me. However, according to the law of time travelers, time travelers are usually nosy and can cause trouble no matter what.

Zhang Xiaoyan decided to redecorate the house a bit in the next few days, changing and tidying up some places to avoid trouble in the future.

Finally, the pot was washed. Zhang Xiaoyan directly filled a kettle of water from the pipe and took the washed pot back home.
