After Xu Damao left Silly Zhu's house, he went to an old man's house. He didn't see an old man, only a middle-aged woman and a young woman holding a child chatting.
Xu Damao called out,"Aunt Yi, Sister-in-law Jia, isn't Uncle Yi at home?"?”
A middle-aged woman and a young married woman turned their heads and looked over. The middle-aged woman said,"It's Da Mao! When your uncle heard that you were treating him to a meal, he went to buy the staple food. He was afraid that you didn't prepare it.”
"Ha, I've already bought it. It's fine as long as he's there. He helped me so much yesterday, I don't know how to thank him.”
The woman smiled and said," I'll tell your uncle when he comes back. This old man has been gone for so long and hasn't come back yet."”
Xu Damao also smiled and didn't say anything. He looked at the young woman who was holding a 2-year-old and thought," This must be Qin Huairu?
This young woman indeed had a great figure and a beautiful face. Coupled with her charming eyes, it made people very lustful. No wonder so many people in the original novel had ill intentions towards her. Coupled with her pitiful tears, I reckon that very few people could withstand such lethality.
The more he looked at it, the more tempting it became. On closer inspection, the front and back of the panda were protruding. The protected panda was probably the size of a volleyball. Anyway, it should be like this!
Xu Damao thought for a moment and said,"Sister-in-law, ask Brother Jia to go eat with us later!"”
Qin Huairu put down the child in her arms and stood up. She waved her hand and said,""How can I do that? Your Brother Jia didn't help much.”
Xu Damao looked at the slight shaking when he waved his hand and was stunned for a moment. Then, he realized that a middle-aged woman was still at the scene. It was not appropriate to stare at her like this.
Xu Damao said calmly,""I'm sincerely grateful to the people of the quad. It just so happens that I have some questions to ask Brother Jia.”
"What's the matter?" Qin Huiru asked doubtfully.”
Xu Damao smiled." It's not convenient to talk about it now that Brother Jia isn't here. I'll ask him when he comes over."”
Qin Huairu did not take it seriously. She thought that it was just an excuse to invite her husband along the way. She replied in embarrassment,""Then... Alright, I'll get your Brother Jia to bring a bottle of wine when I go back later!”
Xu Damao waved his hand and said,""No, no, no, don't bring wine. I don't want to go to the hospital again.”
Only then did Qin Huairu realize that she had said the wrong thing. Wasn't that offending someone? Immediately, she began to explain guiltily.
"Ah, Da Mao! I forgot. Please don't mind me!"
"It's okay. The few of you can drink it! I was just joking."
"Then auntie, Sister Huai Ru, it's settled then. I'll go back first.”
After Xu Damao left, he first returned to his own house. He looked at Shazhu's swift movements. In a short while, a dish was served. It was very fast. He had indeed found the right person.
Xu Damao looked at the dishes on the table and turned to look at the ingredients. Seeing that there was nothing left, he immediately understood. Silly Zhu was unhappy.
However, Xu Damao was not angry at all, nor did he question Silly Zhu. He just used a big bowl to divide some vegetables and a few white steamed buns.
Seeing that Xu Damao was still using the bowl to serve the dishes, Silly Zhu started to complain again,"Do you have to do this, Xu Damao!"
"You're still saving food? How did this meal make you poor?”
Xu Damao looked at Silly Zhu and rolled his eyes. He ignored him and continued to serve the dishes. Coincidentally, Third Uncle came over.
"Damao, I'm coming!" Third Uncle said.”
Xu Damao looked at Third Master coming over empty-handed, he didn't have any other thoughts in his heart, and even more so for Silly Zhu. Both of them came empty-handed.
Xu Damao put down the dishes and asked Third Uncle to sit down first. Then, he cleaned up the table.
"Third Uncle, please take a seat first. There are still two uncles who haven't arrived.”
Xu Damao turned around and returned to his house. He took out a plate of melon seeds and said,""Third Uncle, eat some melon seeds first.”
Third Uncle didn't stand on ceremony. He started eating and said,"That's good. I'll eat while waiting.”
Xu Damao saw that Third Uncle was eating without any hesitation, so he pouted and said,""I'm going to see if First Uncle and the others are here. I'll also send some food over to the old lady. We'll eat delicious food ourselves and show our filial piety to the old lady.”
"Damao is right. The old lady is the most senior person in our quad. When you were young, the old lady even carried you.”
An old man's voice was heard before he arrived.
Xu Damao turned to look at the first uncle and smiled."First Uncle is here. Sit down first!”
Then, Xu Damao led the first uncle to the table and sat down. The first uncle said,"I brought some cornmeal buns. Let's eat together later.”
Xu Damao laughed and said," You can come. Why did you bring anything? It's as if I have to get some benefits when I treat you to a meal."”
Xu Damao glanced at Third Uncle and then at the melon seeds that he had just taken out. The melon seeds were almost at the bottom. Without thinking, he knew that this old man must have taken them while eating.
Third Uncle was a little embarrassed by Xu Damao's gaze. It was fine if he came empty-handed, but he even took the melon seeds from the host. However, as long as he was not embarrassed, the one who was embarrassed was others.
Third Uncle thought for a moment and put a small handful of melon seeds into the plate. Then, he said,"Grandpa Yi is here. I didn't notice that I was so greedy that I finished everything.”
First Uncle glanced at it and didn't reply. He must have understood.
Xu Damao looked at the Third Uncle who was calm and not embarrassed at all. He was speechless.
This Third Master Yan Bugui was indeed the number one schemer in the academy. In just a short while, the melon seeds were gone. Even if he didn't spit out the shells, he would have chewed for a long time, right?
You're really something!
Xu Damao did not continue to take out the melon seeds. Third Uncle saw that Xu Damao did not take out the melon seeds and felt a little regretful. However, he had already gotten the melon seeds.
Xu Damao greeted them and went to the backyard to bring some food to the old lady. On the way home, he happened to bump into Jia Ren. The two of them walked over together.
When Xu Damao returned, it just so happened that Silly Zhu had finished his work. He sat down with the dishes and heard Second Uncle's voice.
"I'm not late, am I? I brought some eggs to nourish Damao's body.”
Third Uncle and Jia Ren sucked in a breath of cold air. This was a big deal. Eggs were hard to come by.
Nowadays, eggs could not be bought with money. You still had to look at opportunities. It was basically impossible to buy eggs from the supply and marketing cooperative. You had to look at the opportunity to buy eggs from Pigeon City. Sometimes there was, sometimes not.
Xu Damao stretched out his hand and gestured for everyone to sit down, while Shazhu spoke without restraint,""Why are you putting on airs? You made so many of us wait for you.”
