Chapter 561 Is Used

"Hey, Xiaoyan is back from get off work."

"Yes, Uncle Guo, have you eaten?"

"I've just come back a while ago. Good guy, of all the restaurants in our courtyard, your food is the best. It's eggs and meat. This pork belly looks really good. Okay, I'll give you a bottle of wine. Is there someone at home?"

Washing his face at the faucet of the pool in the yard, a short, bald old man blinked his eyes and looked at the young man in work clothes who had just pushed a bicycle in front of him.

This young man was of course Wang Yan. On the handlebar of the bicycle he was pushing, there were eggs, a strip of meat, a bottle of Red Star Erguotou, and actually a bag of soybean sprouts. This Uncle Guo was the one who was later tricked into committing suicide by Cheng Jianjun's fake Yuan Dynasty jar.

"No one is here. If only one person is full, the whole family will not be hungry. It just so happens that today's salary is paid, so let's eat something good."

As he spoke, he racked up his old 28 bicycle and took off his things: "I'm back, Uncle Guo."

"Hey, go ahead, go ahead."

Seeing Wang Yan enter the room, Lao Guo shook his head and continued to bend down to wash his face.

This is one of the courtyards in a mixed-use courtyard near Chongwenmen in Beijing.

This courtyard was originally a two-entry courtyard. In the early years, the original owner fell into financial difficulties and sold the courtyard or rented out some rooms in the courtyard. After that, he went through the war and chaos, and later had to solve the housing problem. For these reasons, Siheyuan has become a large courtyard.

The same is true. In such a two-entry courtyard, there are nine families, and there are several members of the same family. The same is true. In order to make living more comfortable, this courtyard has inevitably undergone some modifications, and the original courtyard layout has been lost.

After all, people have to grow up, and when they grow up, they have to start a family. When a daughter is married off and a son is married off, there is not enough room for a family of four, five, six, or seven children. In order to solve housing difficulties, the state allows extension, introduction, and expansion. However, although some private buildings were built randomly at this time, it was not too messy or crowded. After all, if you want to build a house, you need building materials, which is not that easy.

After the earthquake in Tang City, because the losses were too great, the government ordered the people to build earthquake shelters to prevent disasters, and allocated a large amount of building materials. At this time, people used those materials to build houses and expand their living space.

Within two years, reform and opening up began, social controls were relaxed, and incomes increased little by little. There was a new wave of private buildings, which became even more chaotic and crowded.

Wang Yan's conditions are certainly good. He lives alone in the two east wing rooms. Open the door and enter the kitchen, which is also filled with messy items. Entering the back room, there is a large desk by the window and other furniture, all made of solid wood. To the west is a double bed with a Two chairs, tidied up.

This was another inheritance left by his parents to him... This time when he was fifteen years old, his father died in order to save the damage due to a childbirth accident, and his mother also passed away a few years later.

Then, because he was alone, he was given a job in a food factory. The food factory was none other than Yili Food Factory. Coincidentally, he happened to have a co-worker named Li Chengtao...

The current time is the summer of 1975, exactly one month after Han Chunming came back. Wang Yan is twenty-three years old this year, the same age as Han Chunming and Li Chengtao, and they are classmates with Han Chunming.

He came in the morning and worked for a day before returning to his home in this world. The place where he lives is of course in the same courtyard as the protagonist of this world, Han Chunming. His is the east wing, and the three main rooms are where the Han family lives. It was very lively at the moment, it was obvious that someone was here.

Wang Yan unlocked the door with the key, carried the things into the house, put the meat and bean sprouts on the table in the outer room, and put Erguotou on the desk in the house. Then he took off his clothes and put on cool pants and a white vest, revealing his strong muscles.

Living alone, no one knows whether it is cold or hot, so of course I have to rely on myself to eat and drink. He didn't rest even after changing his clothes. Instead, he went to the outhouse to buy sorghum rice and lit a stove to cook on it.

Then he went out to the yard to wash his face.

At this moment, a girl with two big braids exposing her forehead, wearing a floral skirt and small leather shoes walked in. She looked at Wang Yan who was washing up and was stunned for a moment, then said hello with a slightly red face: "You just came back after get off work, Wang Yan?"

Of course, Wang Yan's muscles are not for nothing. The lines are smooth and strong, and now the aesthetics have not deviated. Even if they have deviated, the pimples on his body represent health and strength. They look very comfortable and cannot be said to be unsightly.

He nodded with a smile: "Yes, I just came back."

"I'm going back to the backyard." After saying that, the girl left quickly. She is two years younger than Wang Yan. The current social environment is different, and there are only two of them in this courtyard. Looking at Wang Yan's strong muscles, she is a little embarrassed, which is normal.

And there is another point, the identity arranged by the living father has been a bully here since childhood. Not to mention he is a stubborn person, but he has never been bullied. So this girl was embarrassed and a little uneasy at the same time.

Watching the girl leave, Wang Yan shook his head, smiled, and continued to wash his face and rub his arms.

There is no need to say who this girl is. She is the one who has been with Han Chunming on and off for more than thirty years, but they are still single-minded. Especially when they are both menopausal and pregnant with a daughter, the heroine of this drama is Su Meng. .

The things she did can be explained very clearly by myself. People who are self-proclaimed and noble are looked down upon by most people. They always think that they are capable and thoughtful, but they have high vision and low hand. She has achieved something because she has benefited from the times.

If it were changed to 40 years later, if there was no such social atmosphere as now, no uncle of hers, and just an ordinary family, there is a high probability that a player like Su Meng would play with a man's feelings to get by, and pursue high pursuits wholeheartedly. Because she doesn't have much ability to do good things, she will definitely not be willing to be a diligent and desperate worker.

At this time, she has been staying at home for several years and has not gone out to work. In the play, it was also during this period that Cheng Jianjun's father got two places at Yili Food Factory. Cheng Jianjun wanted to please Su Meng and wanted them to work together, but Su Meng said she didn't want to be a worker. In such a period, with such a sentence, she can be locked up and punished...

But for this woman's ego, who was to blame, the victim was actually Han Chunming, and everyone else was actually fine. Many misunderstandings between her and Han Chunming originated from her ego, and the main reason for the thirty-year conflict was also hers.

After washing his face, Wang Yan returned to the house and dried it. Then in the kitchen of the outhouse, he washed the kitchen knife with water and started chopping vegetables. Chopped green onion, garlic slices, ginger slices, meat slices, and two dried chili peppers, and then washed the bean sprouts.

Use a match to light the gas can, heat the oil in the pan, add the meat slices first, stir-fry until golden brown, then add the onions, ginger, and garlic to the pan...

The aroma of fried meat, especially the fatty pork belly, rises and spreads dozens of meters up and down. In this era of material scarcity, people cannot eat a meal of meat for ten days and a half, and they are particularly sensitive to this aroma.

In the main room, Han Chunming sniffed and smelled the aroma of meat as he watched his aunt who had just come here this morning talking to Meng Xiaoxing with a smile.

Meng Xiaoxing also smelled it, she sniffed and said: "People in the city are different. We are in the countryside. In the whole village, there may not be a few fried meats in a month. Hmm... Judging from the smell, I guess You have to fry half a pound of it, it’s so delicious.”

Han Chunming rolled his eyes: "You have a good nose. You can tell how much meat someone has fried by smelling it?"

"That's right. With such ability, I really want to take a few bites."

"Okay, let's make meat-filled dumplings tonight, too. See how greedy you are." Han Chunming shook his head, stood up and said, "Mom, you guys are making dumplings. I can't do it well, so I won't be a help. Xiao Xing, You and Zao, please be honest and don’t rummage through my things.”

Meng Xiaoxing said quickly: "Why are you going? Brother Wuzi, I will go with you."

"Are you going to follow me when I get into the big number?" Han Chunming rolled his eyes, opened the door and walked out.

Looking for the smell, and listening to the clanging sound of large spoons coming from his ears, Han Chunming looked at the east wing, rolled his eyes, and then walked over with a smile on his face. After knocking on the broken wooden door, he opened the beaded door curtain and entered the house with a clatter.

"Hey, stir-fried pork belly with soybean sprouts. My lord, are you getting rich again? This is such a good craftsmanship. Can I help you taste it?"

A big mouth can eat everywhere, and a sweet mouth can eat everywhere. After all, everyone has come in, rubbing their hands and smiling, and besides, the prince has already called me, so it’s hard to refuse them.

And in Wang Yan's assigned status, because he became an orphan again, the old Han family treated him quite well. Of course, when he didn't offend anyone again, the other families in the courtyard were actually kind to him. After all, who could refuse to help a helpless orphan? In addition, there are people on the street who are paying attention. They are all neighbors who have lived in the same hospital for decades. If they are treated indifferently, they will be stabbed in the back.

"My wages were paid today, isn't this just about improvement?" As he spoke, Wang Yan took a large spoon and took out two pieces of meat from the pot with bean sprouts: "When I bought the meat, Aunt Li told me, When your family is making dumplings tonight, why don’t you serve me the meat?”

"Oh, don't mention it, my aunt is here again. My eldest brother and eldest sister are coming back tonight. So many people are eating together. How many diced meat can there be in one dumpling? It's not as good as you, who can eat it alone. If you are full, the whole family will not be hungry, and they will eat delicious and spicy food every day.”

Han Chunming was not afraid of being burned. He stretched out his hand to pinch the piece of meat and put it in his mouth. He smacked his lips and ate it deliciously. He also licked the meat with his thumb and index finger. He shook his head with a satisfied look on his face: "It's delicious. The craftsmanship is really good. The saltiness is just right. It's ready to be cooked."

Wang Yan stir-fried twice more, neatly put the vegetables on a plate, then took out the sorghum rice on the stove from the pot, put it into cold water to cool down, and made sorghum rice. The remaining rice soup was not wasted. I poured some into a bowl to dry, and poured the rest into the trash can.

He brought the food into the house and put it on the desk. He also made pickled salted dried radish. Then he sat on the stool, unscrewed the Erguotou and poured it into a ceramic cup with a lotus pattern. Then he turned around and looked at the people who had been following him. Behind his butt, Han Chunming, who was sitting on the side with a solemn gaze, staring at his wine glass attentively: "What do you mean? Let's eat something together? Don't your family have dumplings at night?"

Han Chunming's Adam's apple twitched, he swallowed, and then said coquettishly: "Your Highness, can we discuss something?"

Wang Yan raised his eyebrows noncommittally: "Tell me about it."

"Can I... look at this wine glass?"

"What's the point of discussing this? Open the cabinet behind you. There are three more in it." Wang Yan took a sip of wine, put a piece of meat into his mouth, and pursed his lips casually.

"They are all similar styles?"

"You will know after you take a look."

Seeing Wang Yan's indifferent look, Han Chunming swallowed his saliva again, turned around and carefully opened the cabinet, took out three wine glasses from it, gently placed them on the desk, and then picked up a glass and placed it in front of his eyes, looking back and forth. After a long while, he let out a long sigh: "Prince, can you... hehe... sell these four cups to me? I will buy you a new set of wine glasses later?"

"Bullying me for not knowing the goods?" Wang Yan sneered: "Are you stupid because of queue jumping? Or do you think I am down and out because I am now a logistics equipment repairman in a food factory? You have cheated me?"

Han Chunming smiled embarrassedly: "I am used to seeing good things, so don't treat me like that. Besides, this is the Chenghua Doucai used by the official kiln. It is so good and it is a set. Are you using it to drink like this?"

While saying this, he secretly cursed Wang Yan in his heart for being a dog-faced person who changed too quickly.

Of course he was intimidated. Although they had been classmates since childhood, and although he was also naughty and unruly, he was obviously much worse than Wang Yan. Because Wang Yan was a serious person, he knew many stubborn people and veterans. He was able to get along with both sides in two mutually hostile groups, and he was quite respectable. He was a real ruthless person. That's why he called him Wang Ye, because he was really a Ye. It was because they lived in the same courtyard, his mother was more caring, and he knew Wang Yan a little bit, knowing that Wang Yan was a casual and easy-to-talk person, so he dared to come to his house to ask for meat.

"Isn't it just a wine glass? What else can you do if you don't use it to drink? Can you worship it?"

"You are this." Han Chunming gave a thumbs up with admiration on his face. If he had this thing, he would really be reluctant to use it to drink. He asked curiously, "Prince, why haven't I seen it before? Did you get it recently?"

"It's been several years. It seems to be from a friend of a friend's cousin. They didn't need money for the confinement period after giving birth. I don't know where they got it. They saw the money under the money and looked for a buyer. I happened to be there, so I bought it back."

"How much did it cost?"

"It seems to be ten yuan, and there are some milk powder tickets and so on."

Han Chunming nodded repeatedly, staring at the Doucai wine glass: "It's not expensive, just two hundred, and it's worth it to have four of them in a set."

Wang Yan smiled. He really didn't lie to Han Chunming. This is the explanation of the system information. And there are more than just these four wine glasses in his room. Maybe in order to match the main line of the play, Huo Di gave him some configurations. The furniture in his room is either Huanghuali or red sandalwood, and there is a complete set of Qianlong tea sets, as well as pens, inkstones, etc., which are all cultural relics. There are also many other ornaments, stamps and other miscellaneous things. According to the system, many of them were passed down to him by his father, and some of them were collected by him over the years.

Han Chunming was not surprised because he had known for a long time that Wang Yan had a lot of good things in this house. The reason why he asked if he could sell it to him was mainly because he had only been back for a month and had not seen Wang Yan for several years, so he didn't know how deep he was. In addition, he was just excited to see the good things, so he was talking nonsense. It's just that he is still inexperienced and hasn't learned to restrain himself.

Actually, to be honest, Wang Yan also knows about cultural relics. Maybe he is not like the one in this drama, who just makes a mess of stories and allusions about the whole thing. But he is capable of seeing the authenticity, age, etc. This is because he knows a lot and has seen a lot. After all, he has always been the eldest brother, and cultural relics have always been good things for doing things. Whether he likes it or not, the value it represents will not be wrong if you give it away. So he gives it to others, and many people also give it to him. After a long time, he has experience.

Moreover, he had lived in the Ming Dynasty and the Song Dynasty, and there were too many official collections, and those corrupt officials could find a lot of things when their houses were searched. He would also look at these things when he had nothing to do, just to amuse himself.

The reason why he didn't tell stories like the characters in the play was just because he didn't study so many things. Cultural relics were really just a side topic for him. After all, he didn't do archaeology, but he also appreciated and learned from them, and he also sighed at the wisdom of the ancients, the level of the ancient masters, and their superb skills... The biggest role left was to use them.

Seeing Wang Yan didn't say anything, Han Chunming asked again: "Why have I never heard you say that you like these old things before?"

"What is there to say? You know that my dad likes these things. You just see me hanging out outside? Even if I'm not proficient, I shouldn't know nothing. Forget it this time, but next time you bully me for not knowing these things, don't blame me for turning my face against you."

"No, no, I just talked nonsense. Don't you know, Prince, if you see something you like outside, you can't show it, otherwise people will ask for a high price, right? How can I afford it? This is a habit I have developed over time. Please forgive me. "

Han Chunming put the three small wine glasses back carefully, and looked at the other good things in the cabinet reluctantly. He couldn't help but sigh that he, who knew the goods, couldn't get the good things, but this half-baked one had all the good stuff. It's unfair, unfair...

He turned back and looked at Wang Yan: "Your Majesty, do you want to discuss something?"

"Go ahead."

"Lend me a dollar, I'll pay it back next month."
