As the saying goes, a gentleman loves money and takes it in the right way. Although these books are also used to thank me for my return,
However, it would seem like he was taking advantage of a burning house to exchange it for another steamed bun.
He Siyu felt that even if he didn't buy steamed buns for him several times, someone would eventually give him something to eat.
however
He Siyu had a flash of inspiration. He slapped his forehead and smiled bitterly.
"How could I have forgotten about the recording function?”
Then, he looked at the raggedy Marquis and said,
"This gift is too valuable. I can't accept it.”
"However, I'm quite interested in books, so I want to borrow them from you. Three days later, we'll still be here. I'll return the books to you..."
"How is it?"
The raggedy man was slightly stunned, and then his eyes were filled with obvious confusion.
Obviously, He Siyu's words touched him."
"With your words, if I, the Trash Hou, still feel pity for these books, then it won't make sense!”
" Take this book. There's no need to return it. Just treat it as my gratitude for saving your life."
As he spoke, the raggedy Marquis cupped his fists at He Siyu.
It could be seen that the raggedy Hou was not as sloppy as his current appearance. Instead, he was a person who would repay kindness and was well-versed in etiquette.
"Sir, you're being too serious. Actually, I'm just more interested in the contents of this book."
"I can't take away what others love. If you're not willing to lend it to me, then I can't take this book.”
He Siyu waved his hand and said seriously,
After saying that, he turned around without any hesitation.
Although he was a little reluctant, it was something that others had to endure and starve for. It was something that they had exchanged their lives for.
How could he be greedy and take it directly because of the gratitude of others?
The raggedy man stared blankly at He Siyu, who had already begun to walk. After a long while, he laughed self-deprecatingly.
"Hahaha ~"
"Looks like I, Trash Marquis, have really crossed the heart of a gentleman with my petty heart!”
"Little friend, don't be in a hurry to leave. I'll borrow this book!”
"Let's meet here three days later.”
Even though the raggedy Marquis said so, He Siyu still hesitated for a moment before stopping and turning around to look at him.
"However, I have a condition."
"In the future, when I, Trash Hou, return this favor, you can't reject it.”
Seeing He Siyu turn around, the raggedy Marquis heaved a sigh of relief.
"Then it's a deal. See you here in three days?”
He Siyu nodded and walked over to take the three books wrapped in light from the hands of the raggedy man.
"See you in three days!"
The raggedy Marquis nodded solemnly. This time, there was no hesitation or reluctance in his eyes.
After chatting for a while more, they learned that the tattered goods were waiting near Zhengyang Gate, which was indeed quite a distance away from here.
Looking at his weak body, it was not easy for him to walk to Zhengyang Gate even after eating two steamed buns.
So He Siyu gave him another ten cents as a deposit before leaving.
They said it was a deposit, but it was actually for the bus. Both of them knew this in their hearts, but they didn't say it explicitly.
Although he had obtained an unexpected fortune today, He Siyu did not forget what he was going to do today.
When the bus arrived at Chaoyang Market, He Siyu carefully selected the old hen.
Just as He Siyu thought, the old hen here was much cheaper than the ones in Dongdan Market.
Old hens that could lay eggs were only 1.50 yuan each.
As for the old hen that couldn't lay eggs, it was sold for 1 yuan.
In the end, under He Siyu's crazy bargaining, he spent 80 cents on an old hen that could not lay eggs and was definitely old enough.
When they returned to the courtyard house, it was already past three in the afternoon.
At this moment, the uncles and aunts in the courtyard were all working in the factory.
Therefore, no one saw He Siyu carrying a slaughtered hen into the courtyard.
However, just as they were about to enter He Yuzhu's house and pass by Qin Huairu's house,
He Siyu noticed Jia Zhangshi who was standing at the window, craning her neck to look at him.
He Siyu ignored her and went straight into He Yuzhu's room.
For people like Jia Zhangshi, even if you had good things, you would give her some.
If you don't want to share it, she still thinks that she's looking down on her and then gossips.
This kind of person was an ingrate, so He Siyu couldn't be bothered with her at all.
After entering the room and turning the stove over, He Siyu began to rummage through He Yuzhu's room for ingredients.
Actually, He Siyu had bought some just now. He just wanted to use the old ones first.
However, after searching for a long time, he could not find anything.
"This Uncle Zhu Zi is really too much. He even hid the ingredients so well."
"Alright, keep it for yourself.”
He Siyu muttered, then took out the mushrooms and other ingredients to wash.
Immediately after, he placed the old hen into the clay pot, added water and salt, and began to simmer it slowly.
The Tan family's dishes were cooked slowly so that the original fragrance and nutrition of the ingredients would not be destroyed.
It was not impossible if it was done quickly, but the taste would not be as fragrant.
