Chapter Ninety-Six: Together
Song Yuanchao's eight years in the northwest were not in vain, farming, herding sheep, digging manure pits, and even going out to ask for food along the streets in the most difficult two years...... What dirty work have you not done? Besides, this kind of roof is no different from the roof in the northwest, including the Huhai, Song Yuanchao has done this kind of work many times, and immediately did it with Wang Dazhu.
At first, Wang Dazhu was worried that this young man who seemed to be polite and polite would not be able to do this job, but as soon as Song Yuanchao got started, he knew that he was underestimating others.
Looking at Song Yuanchao's appearance, he was no worse than himself, and with Song Yuanchao's help, the progress of this work was much faster all of a sudden.
An hour later, all the parts of the roof to be repaired were dealt with, Song Yuanchao and Wang Dazhu checked it carefully and made sure that there was no problem, the two stood up and looked at each other and smiled.
"Song Yuanchao, the object of the swallow, hello Brother Dazhu."
"Hello, look at this, you are here as a guest today, and this guest has just come to help me do a lot of work......." Wang Dazhu shook hands with Song Yuanchao and said with a smile.
"I'm not an outsider, and besides, even if I'm a guest, I can't watch the host busy and idle on the sidelines, anyway, it's a matter of help."
"Hahaha, that's right, you're welcome to come to the house." Wang Dazhu smiled heartily, at this time, the tall lady in the courtyard shouted and asked if it was okay above? If it's okay, let's talk about it.
Listening to the shouts of the tall lady, Song Yuanchao and Wang Dazhu looked at each other and smiled, the two packed up their tools and climbed down the stairs, and as soon as they landed, Lin Yan brought a basin of water, and then took two towels, and asked Song Yuanchao and Wang Dazhu to wash their hands first and quickly wipe their sweat.
After washing the handle and drying off the sweat with a towel, the whole person suddenly felt much refreshed.
"Aunt Gao, Brother Dazhu, sister-in-law, hello! I am the object of the swallow, Song Yuanchao, and it is a pleasure to meet you today. At this time, Song Yuanchao officially introduced himself to everyone, and just after speaking, the little girl on the side jumped up and shouted anxiously: "There is ...... And me! ”
Song Yuanchao hurriedly laughed, squatted down and asked the little girl, "Beautiful and cute little sister, what's your name?" ”
"Uncle, I'm Wang Xiaoxiao, and Wang Dazhu is my father." Wang Xiaoxiao's age is about the same as Zhang Pingping, but her personality is much more lively, she is changing her teeth, she shows her mouth when she smiles, and she has two pigtails on her head, which looks lively and cute.
"Yes, yes, and our beautiful little sister Wang Xiaoxiao, I'm very happy to meet Ling, my name is Song Yuanchao."
"Well, my name is Wang Xiaoxiao, and I'm very happy to meet you." Wang Xiaoxiao looked like a little adult, and shook hands with Song Yuanchao seriously, making the adults around him look happy.
Aunt Gao beckoned everyone to sit, and after saying a few words, she beckoned the sister-in-law of the Wang family to go to the kitchen to work first, Wang Dazhu asked Xiaoxiao to follow her grandmother and mother into the house, where are the children who like to be lively, at this time Lin Yan directly hugged her and sat on her lap, teasing her while talking.
"Aid to North Korea...... It's okay for me to call you to aid North Korea, right? Wang Dazhu handed a cigarette to Song Yuanchao, it is not a good cigarette, it is the most common Yanjing brand in Yanjing, this kind of cigarette is smoked by ordinary people, and the price is also affordable.
Song Yuanchao thanked him, took the cigarette, and struck a match to help Wang Dazhu light it: "Brother Dazhu, that's it." Aren't the names given by parents just to people? That's what my friends, including Swallow, call me the same way. ”
Song Yuanchao's attitude made Wang Dazhu very satisfied, not to mention the posture that Song Yuanchao showed to help him work just now, as well as this attitude of treating people and things. Lin Yan grew up under the watchful eye of Wang Dazhu, and his feelings for Lin Yan are no different from his sister, as Lin Yan's object, Wang Dazhu certainly hopes that Song Yuanchao is a person worthy of Lin Yan's liking, and now Song Yuanchao's performance is very in line with Wang Dazhu's requirements.
The two smoked cigarettes and chatted, and when they learned that Song Yuanchao was also a student of Beijing Normal University, and he came from Huhai, Wang Dazhu seemed to remember something, and subconsciously glanced at Lin Yan, who was teasing his daughter.
After chatting for a while, Wang Dazhu felt more and more that Song Yuanchao had a temperament towards him, and couldn't help but smile and say: "Yuanchao, you are not like a Huhai person." ”
Hearing this, Song Yuanchao was not angry, in fact, this sentence had been heard many times in Song Yuanchao's previous life, as if you are not like Huhai people, but a compliment to Huhai people, which is really a bit laughable.
"Brother Dazhu, in fact, Huhai is no different from Yanjing, and you will feel it when you have the opportunity to live in Huhai for a few days in the future."
"And this kind of statement? So what do you tell us about? Wang Dazhu asked with interest, let alone Huhai in his life, he has never even been out of Yanjing City.
"Yanjing has the unique culture of Yanjing, let's not talk about the elegant, let's talk about this ordinary hutong culture." Song Yuanchao took a puff of cigarette and said with a smile, he started from the origin of Yanjing Hutong, and talked about the changes of Yanjing Hutong and the life of ordinary residents in modern history.
Song Yuanchao was very interested in these things in his previous life, perhaps because of Lin Yan, who also studied the folklore and culture of Yanjing for a while. And Song Yuanchao's eloquence is also good, and he used simple and easy-to-understand sentences in the narration, which not only made Wang Dazhu nod again and again, but even Lin Yan, who was teasing Wang Xiaoxiao on the side, couldn't help but listen.
After talking about Yanjing, Song Yuanchao talked about Huhai again, and talked about the lane culture that is very similar to Yanjing Hutong culture.
The Song Dynasty began with the origin of the lanes, which were interspersed with the structure of people from the West and the north and south of China who converged to Huhai, thus forming the history of modern Shanghai.
Compared with the courtyard houses in Yanjing, although the housing structure of the alleys in Huhai is different, this is just the architectural difference between the north and south of the region, but whether it is the alley or the alley, the fireworks are very similar to many daily life.
For this reason, Song Yuanchao talked about the lane where he lived, talked about the neighbors who got along with each other, and talked about Zhang Jianguo's family, who regarded him as his son and nephew.
After listening to Song Yuanchao's narration, Wang Dazhu couldn't help but feel a little emotional, some things really can't be preconceived, everything Song Yuanchao said was something he had never heard of, and at the same time, he also had a strong interest in Huhai, which he had never been to.
"Brother Dazhu, when you have the opportunity to welcome you to Huhai, I will arrange the place to live, and I will take your family to have a good visit in Huhai when the time comes, to ensure that you can feel a big Huhai that is different from Yanjing, but extremely kind."
"Wow! I'll definitely go when the time comes, so it's decided. ”
"A must!"
The two of them immediately laughed, and then Wang Dazhu said something about the past when Lin Yan lived here, the more the two chatted, the more speculative they became, looking at their enthusiastic appearance, Lin Yan on the side looked at Song Yuanchao with a relieved gaze, and his heart was full of joy.
Song Yuanchao and Lin Yan had lunch at Gao Da's mother's house, this is a very ordinary lunch of an ordinary family in Yanjing, simple fried noodles plus a few side dishes or something, but Song Yuanchao ate very fragrantly, and raised his thumb while eating and praised this is the most delicious fried noodles he has ever tasted, and the taste of this sauce is simply amazing.
Listening to Song Yuanchao's heartfelt praise, Aunt Gao couldn't mention how happy she was, especially Song Yuanchao's words simply spoke to her heart, if you want to talk about fried noodles, your own home is a must within a radius of ten miles, which is her pride. Lin Yan loved to eat his own fried noodles since he was a child, Song Yuanchao, this young man really has a vision, no wonder his own Lin Yan would choose him.
After lunch, Song Yuanchao sat with them for a while before getting up to say goodbye, originally Aunt Gao asked them to come back after dinner, but Lin Yan said that Song Yuanchao had just come to Yanjing, and he planned to take him to Yanjing in the afternoon on his day off, so Aunt Gao gave up.
But even so, Mrs. Gao's family still sent Song Yuanchao and Lin Yan to the mouth of the alley, took Lin Yan's hand and kindly asked them to come and sit when they had time, and the aunt personally cooked, rolled out the noodles and fried sauce, and made them the best fried noodles.
