Chapter 112: Shopping and Eating

Jingcheng

Song Song Yulan sat on the back seat of the bicycle, nervous and happy. She hugged Cao Cao Weiguo's waist happily.

The two visited the Temple of Heaven, the Summer Palace, and Wang Wang Fujing together.

Even if it was just shopping and they didn't buy anything, they were very happy.

At noon, Cao Cao Weiguo took Song Song Yulan to Quanjude.

A roast duck made Song Song Yulan feel both heartache and happiness.

A meal cost a full eight Brother Yuan and six mao, enough for the family's expenses for half a month.

After finishing lunch, Cao Cao Weiguo carried Song Song Yulan to Beihai Park.

This time they didn't go fishing, but instead, he taught Song Song Yulan how to ride a bicycle.

"Don't be anxious, don't be afraid, I'm holding it for you from behind."

Song Song Yulan rode unsteadily, and Cao Cao Weiguo carefully held it from behind.

After a whole afternoon of tossing and turning, she finally learned how to ride.

Song Song Yulan, who had learned to ride, was happy and excited; she was so fresh that she didn't want to get off.

There was no other way, in order to make his wife happy.

Song Song Yulan rode the bike toward the Sihe Academy.

Cao Cao Weiguo followed behind carrying the duck carcass.

"Cao Weiguo, Song Yulan, you're back!"

"Third Master!"

Song Song Yulan pushed the bicycle, and Cao Cao Weiguo followed beside her carrying the duck carcass.

Just as they entered the courtyard, they ran into Third Master, who was full of smiles.

"Cao Weiguo, come to my house for a drink tonight."

Cao Cao Weiguo looked at Third Master in surprise: "Third Master, do you have something?"

Third Master stared: "Hey, can't you have a few drinks with your uncle if there's nothing?"

Cao Cao Weiguo smiled: "Fine, Third Master is treating, I'd have to go even if knives were falling from the sky."

Third Master laughed happily: "That's right, come over early tonight."

Cao Cao Weiguo said with a smile: "Definitely, definitely."

Having received Cao Cao Weiguo's confirmation, Third Master went home happily to make arrangements.

Passing through the middle courtyard, Bang Geng saw the roast duck at a glance.

"Mom! I want to eat roast duck!"

Not daring to ask Cao Cao Weiguo for it himself, Bang Geng ran to find Qin Qin Huairu.

Qin Qin Huairu said grumpily: "Stop craving it, Cao Cao Weiguo won't give it to you."

Bang Geng said with a face full of resentment: "Stingy ghost! Iron rooster!"

Jia Jia Zhangshi cursed in a low voice with a vicious look in her eyes: "Heartless beast, eating fish and meat every day, but doesn't know how to help the neighbors, he definitely won't have a good end!"

Cao Cao Weiguo turned a blind eye to this family.

Song Song Yulan naturally wouldn't give the Jia family a good look either.

She pushed the bicycle forward without saying a word, afraid of getting into trouble.

Jia Jia Zhangshi nagged meanly: "Not even a greeting, this pair has nothing good in them!"

Qin Qin Huairu looked at their backs, looking at the roast duck in Cao Cao Weiguo's hand.

She felt bad inside; she had been married to the Jia family for so many years and hadn't even eaten a bite of roast duck.

But that Song Song Yulan was also from the countryside, how could she have such good luck.

Married to Cao Cao Weiguo, eating and drinking well, enjoying the good life she dreamed of.

"Wife, I'll boil a pot of duck soup."

"I'm going to Third Master's house tonight, you eat at home by yourself."

Arriving home, Cao Cao Weiguo took out a casserole and stewed the duck carcass.

In a short while, the aroma of the stewed duck soup spread out.

This made the Deaf Old Lady in the back courtyard drool.

Second Master opened the window, drooling: "What is this Cao Cao Weiguo stewing? Why is it so fragrant!"

Liu Liu Guangfu swallowed his saliva: "I just saw him come back carrying a bag of duck carcasses."

Liu Guangtian said: "He must have gone to eat roast duck!"

Second Aunt said enviously: "Look at their life, eating meat every few days."

Second Master said: "It's because Cao Cao Weiguo is capable, earning such a high salary, he couldn't spend it all even if he ate meat every meal."

In the kitchen, the duck soup was stewing, and Song Song Yulan watched it carefully.

Cao Cao Weiguo carried a bottle of Xifeng liquor and half a strip of cured meat and went out.

"Cao Weiguo, you're too slow, if you don't come, the food will be cold."

Walking to Third Master's house, as soon as Cao Cao Weiguo arrived, Third Master complained casually.

"Third Master, it's my fault, didn't I prepare good wine and meat for you!"

Saying this, he raised the Xifeng liquor and the bright red cured meat in his hand.

Looking at that strip of cured meat, everyone in the room had their eyes light up.

Especially the two little ones, Yan Jiekang and Yan Yan Jiedi, who were drooling at the sight of the cured meat.

Third Master and Third Aunt also stared at the cured meat and couldn't look away.

This bright red cured meat was a rare and good thing.

The family hadn't eaten such good cured meat in years.

Yu Li's eyes also shone when she saw the cured meat.

Since marrying into the Yan family, let alone such good cured meat, she couldn't even eat a few bites of pork a year.

Even during the New Year, the Yan family only cut one or two catties of pork.

But with the Yan family's three sons and one daughter, plus Third Master and Third Aunt.

A whole family eating together, she could only taste the meat.

"Look at you, you're here, why be so polite!"

"My family invited you to dinner, how could I let you spend money."

Seeing the white liquor and cured meat, Third Master was naturally full of joy, but he was still polite.

Cao Cao Weiguo said with a smile: "Third Master, this is my first time eating at your house, I couldn't come empty-handed. It's just a small token of my respect."

Third Master was full of smiles: "This gift is not small, Cao Weiguo is a classy person."

Cao Cao Weiguo still had a good impression of Third Master.

If he could be on good terms, he could be on good terms.

After all, living in the courtyard, human interaction was inevitable.

If he offended everyone in the courtyard.

When the ten-year movement started, it would be trouble if someone reported or ostracized him.

Moreover, Third Master's character in the Sihe Academy was still respectable.

Except for being calculating and stingy, he hadn't done anything bad.

"Yu Li, go fry some of this cured meat."

Third Master took the wine and meat and reluctantly handed the cured meat to Yu Li.

According to his temperament, he wouldn't be willing to eat this cured meat.

But after all, this cured meat was brought by Cao Cao Weiguo, and he still had requests for Cao Cao Weiguo.

Had no choice but to part with it in pain!

"Okay Dad, I'll go add a dish now."

Yu Li took the cured meat and ran to the kitchen happily; today she could finally taste some cured meat.

"Dad, Cao Weiguo, sit down quickly!"

The eldest son, Yan Yan Jiecheng, greeted him diligently: "Cao Weiguo, drink a few more cups today."

The host and guests sat down, and Third Master picked up a bottle of Moutai: "Cao Weiguo, look what this is?"

Cao Cao Weiguo's eyes lit up: "Third Master is amazing! This is Moutai!"

Third Master said happily: "Right! You know your stuff! This is my treasured treasure!"

After saying this, Third Master handed the wine to Yan Yan Jiecheng: "Yan Jiecheng, pour wine for Cao Weiguo."
