Siheyuan: A Cook in the 60s

Chapter 418 "Alive"

“That’s been a while.”

The old man looked at the trees in the yard, and many scenes flashed before his eyes.

I was full of vigor and vitality back then, but now, it seems that only memories remain.

"To be honest, there are quite a few talented people in our yard." Yan Bugui said cheerfully, "Look at He Daqing, he's a craftsman, no doubt about it. The first uncle is an eighth-level fitter, wow, how many people can be an eighth-level fitter. And the second uncle is a seventh-level blacksmith. Tsk, there are hidden dragons and crouching tigers here, hidden dragons and crouching tigers."

"Hey, look at what you said." He Daqing grinned, very happy.

A few old men were happily chatting about stories from the past under a big tree.

He Daqing's great-great-grandson ran over and said, "Grandpa, Grandpa is calling you to come home."

"Okay, okay, I'll be right back. I'll be right back."

The three old men also dispersed, and Cao Wei was the only one left drinking tea in the backyard.

Cao Wei stretched, packed up his things, stood up, and went back to the house.

When he first entered the room, it was so quiet that he felt a little uncomfortable for some reason.

After going out the door, I went into the next room.

Lou Xiao'e was leaning back in her chair, flipping through a book.

Noticing Cao Wei coming in, he chuckled, "What's up? Can't find your piglet, so you come looking for me?"

She was flipping through a copy of "Harvest" in her hand, just sitting there lazily. The sunshine, the beauty, and the book formed a picture.

"You are so beautiful." Cao Wei sighed and the beauty rolled her eyes.

"If you had said this twenty years earlier, I would have laughed it off. But the first thing you said when we met was, 'You've gained weight!'"

"Hey." He chuckled and moved closer: "What are you looking at?"

"This one is very interesting." Lou Xiao'e pointed to an article above.

Cao Wei took a glance.

Wow, "To Live".

"Why, have you seen it?"

"I have. These days, the best things to read are these literary magazines."

"How do you feel? What do you think is the meaning of his life?"

"You are so amazing. After seeing this, wouldn't normal people say that "Fugui" is too miserable?"

"It's miserable?" Lou Xiao'e lowered her eyebrows and said, "It's quite miserable. Does it seem that I have no sympathy when I say this?"

"Well, a little bit." Cao Wei nodded.

"You still have a little bit!" Lou Xiao'e patted him with the magazine: "You haven't answered my question yet?"

"What's the meaning of living?"

"correct."

"It means death."

Lou Xiao'e raised her eyebrows: "What you said is interesting. Can you tell me in detail?"

Cao Wei has a way to deal with literary youths.

"It's pointless to explain it in detail. You have to figure it out yourself. The truth is that it is not the truth."

"Wow, it has risen to this level. Hey, Mr. Cao, I have finally figured it out. You have been tormenting me with these confusing words all these years. When you talked to me about love that year, you let me choose for myself. Once I made that choice, I gave my whole life to you. Now that you are old and don't care anymore, you have figured it out yourself?"

"Look, look, isn't this progress? The hats are tied one after another." Cao Wei put his hand on his head and gestured upwards: "Look, these hats are so tight that they can reach the beams of the house."

"Pfft." Seeing his funny look, Lou Xiao'e couldn't help laughing and put down the book: "Well, I can't beat you. Your little pig is not here, how about a fight?"

"Let's go. I'm not afraid of you. With your card skills, I can beat you in two moves."

"You'd better be as good as your mouth." Lou Xiao'e sneered.

"Let's go!"

"Take a break, take a break, don't go. Mom, you're too busy. What are you doing..." Cao Leyao was so tired that she was out of breath.

"Why? This is the last one. This requires sincerity, you know? Besides, there are very few of them. I always pick the old seniors and visit them in person."

Qin Jingru has Qin Jingru’s connections.

Her daughter was getting married, so she wanted to get a nice wedding dress. She scraped together some money from various houses and finally managed to get the dress together.

Don't get me wrong, it's not about wearing cultural relics, but some decorations on wedding dresses that need to be used.

Cao Leyao doesn't like to be too tired, but Qin Jingru likes it. This kind of trouble really makes her feel exhausted.

Well, after all this time, almost everyone knows that Cao Wei's daughter is getting married...

Even the big boss called.

Lou Xiao'e was sitting on a stool, fanning herself. She had just lost a card game and was very angry. Her face was still red and she was fanning herself desperately to cool down her temper.

"Jingru is really great." Cao Wei calmly poured a glass of water for Lou Xiaoe: "Come, cool down."

Lou Xiao'e rolled her eyes: "This guy, he said he was partial to his own son, but now Cao Leyao is getting married, he really wants to give her the whole world."

"She is just free. When Xiucheng got married, she was not that free."

"You have to understand her."

"That's not."

The sky gradually darkened, and Master Qin, who had been tired all day, opened the door of his home.

She saw two women and a man chatting happily at home. She jumped into Cao Wei's arms and said, "Brother Wei, I'm hungry."

Staring at Cao Wei with eager eyes.

"I've prepared it for you, just waiting for you to eat. Where's Le Yao?"

"behind."

"Oh, I'm so tired..." Cao Leyao came in with a lot of bags on her body. Her expression was so bitter, as if she had eaten coptis.

Qin Huairu quickly got up to answer it.

"How many things have you bought? And you, Qin Jingru, you have nothing at all!"

"whee."

"How dare you laugh!"

"I'm very tired today." Qin Jingru launched a "pitiful" offensive.

Qin Huairu rolled her eyes and tapped her forehead twice: "What are you planning to do? Are you planning to have a grand wedding?"

"By the way, today, the boss called to ask, wow, Le Yao's wedding, I guess it's going to be a lively one. Le Yao..."

"Ah?" As soon as Cao Leyao came in, she put her things away and slumped down on the sofa in her house, her eyes empty: "What's wrong?"

"Have a good talk with your boy. I guess there will be a lot of people coming this time."

Cao Leyao waved her hand weakly: "Let's talk about it later."

"Are you sleepy?"

"Well, I'm tired. I'll go back to sleep first."

"Hey, I'll leave some food in the pot for you. If you're hungry at night, get up and eat." Qin Huairu shouted.

"Good~"

"Look at what you have done to your own daughter." Qin Huairu rolled her eyes at Qin Jingru.

"So what? That's a phoenix coronet and bridal bridal gown. It took a lot of effort to put it together!"
