Siheyuan: Starting with Damo Neighbors

"If you don't buy it, don't buy it..." Liu Guangtian frowned.

Later, the two brothers did not believe in evil, and went to find Wang Xuewen again.

Then he was taught a lesson again.

And it's the kind that is powerless to fight back.

The two brothers were afraid anyway, and they didn't dare to trouble Wang Xuewen anymore.

She didn't even dare to show her face in front of him.

Master Wang Xuewen is in too much pain, worse than Shazhu.

"If you eat like that little bastard, you won't even be able to save a dime. Let's see how he finds a wife in the future!" Second Uncle Liu Haizhong said bitterly.

This day is so gluttonous!

At Xu Damao's house, Lou Xiao'e smelled the fragrance coming from the next door, and she was also depressed to death.

He can't cook.

At noon, I usually eat the leftovers from the morning, and at night I wait for Xu Damao to come back to cook.

If Xu Damao didn't come back because of something, he would tell her in advance, and she would go back to her mother's house to eat.

The last time she got drunk and lost her panties, she was so hungry that she finally went to Da Ma's house to grab some food.

He didn't come back again today, which made Lou Xiao'e very angry.

"Xu Damao, that bastard, where did he go?"

"Are you going to eat at Da Ma's house again today?"

But smelling the fragrance from next door, Lou Xiao'e didn't seem like going to Da Ma's house for a meal.

You have to bring food to eat, that's what you should do.

But the meals at Da Ma's family are just average in terms of richness and taste.

If there is no comparison, she will just make do.

But Wang Xuewen next door cooks so deliciously, and when he thinks of the food at Da Ma's house, he loses his appetite.

"Why don't you... go to the literary school for a living?"

Lou Xiaoe suddenly had this thought, and couldn't let it go.

When Wang Xuewen traveled to the backyard, he didn't take the initiative to curry favor with Lou Xiao'e.

Just meet and greet.

Traveling through this era and obtaining a system, there is no one worthy of his active curry favor.

Because the relationship is not very close, Lou Xiaoe is also hesitating whether to go to Wang Xuewen's house for dinner.

You can smell the aroma in the air that makes you salivate.

Lou Xiaoe couldn't help it anymore.

"Go and try!!"

Lou Xiaoe packed ten catties of refined flour in a cloth bag, and walked to the next door with it.

28. This wine is too expensive, I can't drink it (please collect it!)

Wang Xuewen steamed the king crab and rice.

Take the pan off and set aside to keep warm.

There is boiling water in the pot, and it will not be cold at all in a short time.

Then place the casserole on the stove and simmer the chopped pork belly over low heat.

The pork belly is cut into small square pieces and tied with cotton rope so that the meat will not fall apart during the cooking process.

The Dongpo pork was almost done, when Wang Xuewen heard footsteps coming towards his house.

With [Black Eyes], you can tell it's Lou Xiao'e.

But, what did Lou Xiaoe want him for?

There was also a sack of flour in his hand.

"Xuewen? I'm your sister Xiao'e." Lou Xiao'e stood outside the curtain and whispered.

She was also a little embarrassed to ask Wang Xuewen for a meal.

Afraid of being heard by other people in the backyard, the voice is very low.

Wang Xuewen opened the drawer and put away the king crab and rouge rice inside.

Some things should never be seen.

After putting away the things, Wang Xuewen came to the door and opened it.

"Sister Xiao'e, is there something wrong?" Wang Xuewen asked.

"Well, Xu Damao hasn't returned until now, and I don't know how to cook. Look, can I have dinner with you tonight?"

"I don't eat for nothing, the ten catties of noodles count as my food expenses!" Lou Xiao'e quickly raised the flour bag in her hand.

"Sister Xiao'e, look at what you said, it's all about neighbors, how can you be so polite about such a trivial matter."

"It just so happens that dinner is almost ready, come in first, and eat together later."

Wang Xuewen let Lou Xiao'e in.

It seems that you can't eat rouge rice and king crab for dinner.

But it doesn't matter, the space time in the [storage ring] is frozen, and the rouge rice and king crab will still be hot after a long time.

It's fine to eat alone at night as a supper.

"Thank you so much!!" Lou Xiao'e carried the flour into the room.

"What are you stewing, so fragrant?" Lou Xiao'e looked at the casserole on the stove.

"Dongpo pork."

"Xuewen, didn't my sister say you, you eat so well every day, don't you plan to live?" Lou Xiaoe said.

Xu Damao's salary is high, and he has extra income when he goes to the countryside to show movies.

There are only two people in their family, and they dare not eat like this.

Of course, Lou Xiaoe is not short of money, her dowry has a box of small yellow croakers.

It's just that, it's her dowry, so it can't be used indiscriminately.

And without a ticket, many things cannot be bought with money.

"Hey, I only have such a little hobby, why don't I treat myself better?" Wang Xuewen said with a smile.

"Besides, I'm the only one in the family now. I can feed the whole family by myself. I'm still young, and I'm not in a hurry to get married. There's still time to save money two years later."

"That's right, you said that you are only sixteen now, and your salary has already caught up with Xu Damao. You will definitely not be short of money in the future." Lou Xiaoe nodded.

What Wang Xuewen said is indeed reasonable.

"Xuewen, there is something I want to ask you. Of course, it's okay if it's not convenient for you to say it." Lou Xiaoe suddenly felt a little awkward.

"What's the matter?" Wang Xuewen was a little curious.

Lou Xiaoe still has to ask why personal privacy is not acceptable?

"That's...you eat meat every day, where did you buy the meat?" Lou Xiaoe asked in a low voice.

In this era, everyone's monthly meat is rationed.

It's only half a catty, nothing more.

If you don’t have meat tickets, you won’t be sold if you have money.

Xu Damao can also bring back a few chickens or some eggs from the countryside.

But there is really no way for meat, and there is no such thing in the countryside.

At most, during Chinese New Year, he can get some by killing pigs in the countryside.

"Actually, there's nothing we can't say about this matter. Xu Damao can probably guess it."

"However, let me tell you, don't talk about it." Wang Xuewen said in a low voice.

"I definitely can't say it!" Lou Xiao'e promised quickly.

"It's actually a ghost market. In the ghost market, everything is sold. Pork, beef and mutton, and all kinds of tickets, as long as you spend a little more, you can buy them all."

"That's what I like, so I don't mind spending a little more money. Xu Damao probably doesn't want to part with the money, or dare not go to the ghost market."

"Although the amount is small, it's a matter of speculation after all. You can't tell others." Wang Xuewen said in a low voice.

"Don't say it! My sister definitely can't say it!" Lou Xiao'e promised again and again.

"Actually, whether or not to say it, everyone knows about it."

"Is it true that the higher-ups don't know about the existence of the ghost market? They just don't want to care about it."

"Everyone's life is difficult. The existence of the ghost market allows some people to take out things that they don't need at home to exchange for money, and then buy other things."

"The higher-ups just turned a blind eye. As long as everyone disperses obediently after dawn, they basically don't care about it." Wang Xuewen explained.

"Is that so? I've actually heard about the ghost market, but I've never been there. Is the ghost market fun?" Lou Xiaoe was curious.

"It's not fun. The ghost market is just like the name. It really looks like a group of ghosts gathered together."

"Besides, there is a certain danger for those who are black and white, and they may encounter robbery. You are so beautiful, don't be too hard on yourself, and run to the ghost market." Wang Xuewen said.

Wang Xuewen is not trying to scare Lou Xiaoe.

He has encountered robbers, but he has dealt with them.

"I'm just curious, but I don't want to go to the ghost market." Lou Xiao'e shrank her neck.

After chatting for a while, Wang Xuewen took the casserole off the stove.
