Gu Siwei followed Xu Congwen all the way down the alley, originally thinking that the place where Xu Congwen lived was no different from Qiao Yitong and Hu Yanqiu's house, the difference was the size of the house, the bungalow and the tube building.

But what Gu Siwei didn't expect was that Xu Congwen didn't live in such a place, he seemed to live in a separate small courtyard, a bit like a courtyard, but it was not a courtyard, but there was an inverted seat room in front, but there were no wings on the east and west sides, and the main house was also divided into two parts, and there was a wall in the middle, which looked weird and weird.

Xu saw curiosity in Wen Da Gu Siwei's gaze, so he asked with a smile, "What's the matter, I've never seen a house like this, right?" ”

"I really haven't seen it, it's a bit like a courtyard, but it's different, I can't tell what it feels like" Gu Siwei shook his head with a smile.

The courtyard wall of the courtyard is not high, only half of the pond, and a large part of it is empty, standing outside you can see a corner of the courtyard, so although he did not enter the courtyard, Gu Siwei still looked at the courtyard.

Xu took out the key from Wenda's pocket, grabbed the lock on the door with one hand, raised the keyhole to face him, and reached into the key with the other hand.

With a click, the lock opened, took the lock off, removed the door nose from the ring, and hung the lock on the door knocker.

After that, Xu Congwen gently pushed the door, and the wooden door let out a slender creak and slowly opened.

"Curious, go in and take a look, I don't have any outsiders at home" Xu Congwen pushed open the door and signaled Gu Siwei to be advanced.

Gu Siwei excused himself, then pulled Xu Congwen to step in first, and he followed Zhu Shiming, half a step slower than Zhu Shiming into the courtyard.

Entering the yard, I found that the yard was very beautiful, there were no trees in the yard, but the corners and corners were placed with flower pots, and now most of the flowers in the pots are blooming, and a small yard can be said to be purple and red, full of colors.

Most of the yard is slate, some of the slate is still printed with patterns, the slate looks a little old, not like the work of recent decades, as for the liberation it is even more impossible, here is to build a factory, not to engage in a sanatorium, the bricks on the ground are still carved flowers, this is not a few decades later the tyrants built a mansion.

"How?"

"It's beautiful, it's quite interesting to look at from the outside, but after coming in, I found that Mr. Xu still understands life quite well" Gu Siwei said with a smile.

The courtyard is really beautiful, and it exudes an elegant atmosphere, Gu Siwei also wants to make his own courtyard this type, but unfortunately, he has no clue at all now, how to look at it and how it is cheesy.

Xu Congwen laughed when he heard this: "I know the life of a fart, these are not what I fiddle with, I do it when my lover has something to do, I am a shopkeeper."

"So your lover isn't there today? I really want to meet her, I have a small courtyard of my own, and I always want to dress up, but I can't get this kind of elegance no matter how I do it."

Gu Siwei looked at it for a moment, and then thought about why the door was locked if there was someone in the house?

Xu Congwen said: "She went to her son's side to help bring her grandson, and I can't leave here, if you want to ask her about these flowers and plants, then you have to wait for at least a month, if you don't take care of the child until the full moon, my lover can't come back."

Let's not talk about this today, let's talk about drinking today, and we will rest when we get drunk tonight, Xiao Gu, you really helped us a lot."

Zhu Shiming said disdainfully when he heard this: "It seems that you can drink very well." Xiao Gu, don't believe him, this person has a maximum of three taels, and any more will crawl on the ground."

Xu Congwen laughed and said: "If you can't climb or not, it's really worth drinking when you meet Xiao Gu today, humanity is a joy to know a thousand times!"

By the way, if you don't mind, let me ask, Xiao Gu, who did you learn your mechanical knowledge from? ”

Gu Siwei has repeatedly pondered this question many times in his heart, so he is in case of what others ask.

"I don't actually know about this, I was saved by the villagers in Shimo Village, maybe it hurt my brain, some of the previous things come to mind, some of them can't remember, I don't know where I came from, where I'm going, but there are some things that seem to be imprinted in my mind, including this knowledge, as well as fiddling with machines," Gu Siwei said.

"And this?"

Zhu Shiming and Xu Congwen glanced at each other, and they both felt that this was too strange.

The two of them did not suspect him, if Liu Dezhu was here, they would have to put Gu Siwei in the ranks of spies, but Zhu Shiming and Xu Congwen knew that the young man in front of them had this level of knowledge, so it could not be a spy sent by Jiang.

Zhu Shiming and Xu Congwen asked a few words, and Gu Siwei answered honestly.

"Your accent is really hard to judge, like from Hebei, but there is a little Jianghuai tone in it, and there are all kinds of things," Zhu Shiming said.

Gu Siwei's current Mandarin is the real standard, which is more standard than Xu Congwen and Zhu Shiming, Mandarin has been pushed since five or five years, but people of such age as Zhu Shiming and Xu Congwen must not be able to change their native accents. So from the tone of the two people's speech, it is easy to distinguish the region.

"Speaking of houses, why did you mention Xiao Gu again?" Zhu Shiming smiled here.

Zhu Shiming felt that Gu Siwei definitely didn't want to answer these questions now, so he thoughtfully turned the topic to the house.

Gu Siwei really didn't care about others mentioning this, he felt that he had arranged it properly, of course, if it was too difficult to answer, he didn't mind stroking his head and pretending to be in pain, to show that he couldn't think about this kind of question.

This is a later move, which can make Gu Siwei use this trick, Gu Siwei feels that it is unlikely that there will be this person, and others can't do anything with themselves if they don't answer themselves.

Besides, Lao Gu is ready to die in the Gourd Valley of Silver Pine Cliff, and the things outside are doing his thing.

Hearing that his old friend was so none, Xu Congwen also understood, so he said to Gu Siwei: "Actually, this place turned out to be a temple."

"Temple?"

Gu Siwei really didn't expect this, who would have thought that Xu Congwen's family lived in the temple.

"I heard that it used to be quite big, but when our factory moved here, there was such a big place left, and no one lived in it. We don't care about these old immortals, we are people of faith, can we be afraid of this?

If there is, I'm not afraid, I can't protect our Chinese immortals, Lao Tzu Bird they ball, Xiao Gu, do you say this reason? ”

Xu Congwen seemed to be a little proud of this, and when he talked to Gu Siwei, his eyebrows fluttered.

Gu Siwei smiled and nodded, Gu Siwei didn't care about this, no matter which temple he went to, he was not interested in worshipping these mud tires and wooden bodies, so he naturally felt that Xu Congwen, the old man, was becoming more and more interested in himself.

"Yes, that's right. I'm an atheist."

As he spoke, Gu Siwei thought of the space, and suddenly felt as if he was a little weak-hearted.

"Okay, let's still have a store for what to eat tonight, should we call someone to come over and do it or what do you say? Also, it's just us, or do you want to call someone else? ”

Zhu Shiming asked.

Xu Congwen said: "What do you call so many people to do, let's just drink well, it's a bit of a hindrance for others to be present, as for cooking, I'm not good at it, and you are not good at it, let's call the chef in the factory to come over and help make it, or it's the same if it's done and send it over."

"Is there any food? If there's a dish, I'll make it? ”

Gu Siwei asked.

Xu Congwen asked strangely, "Do you know how to cook?" ”

Gu Siwei said: "There is no problem with ordinary home-cooked food."

Make your own food, since you just drink it for others, then don't bother others, there are people busy eating here, and this meal is always almost meaningful.

Zhu Shiming laughed and said: "That's easy to do, Xiao Gu, you can give the dishes you need, and someone will send them over, and then it will depend on your craftsmanship, Lao Xu and I don't know anything anyway, if we want to do it, we can only boil it, stuff it in our mouths when it's cooked, and don't think about what doesn't taste good."

"A taste of my craft, then?" Gu Siwei said with a smile.

"You have to taste it, look at your brain, your skills must be good," Xu Congwen said.

In this way, Xu Congwen took a pen and paper and gave it to Gu Siwei, who picked up the pen and asked again.

"What's in the cafeteria?"

"As long as it's not too biased, if you write about dragon meat or something, other ordinary people can eat it and think of it, almost all of them, you can just write it," Xu Congwen said.

Gu Siwei thought about it for a while, and then began to make a list, there are three people in total, Gu Siwei has four cold dishes here, and four hot dishes, because it takes a long time to drink, so Gu Siwei deliberately got more, and when everyone chatted while drinking, maybe it would take a few hours, if there were only three or four dishes, it would definitely not work.

A very simple home-cooked dish, the cold dishes are peanuts, preserved egg tofu, tomatoes with sugar and cucumbers, which are now common.

The hot dish is a braised fish, a green pepper with shredded meat, a plate of leek eggs and a stewed duck with bamboo shoots.

I didn't ask for much meat, lest others think they hadn't eaten it.

Xu Congwen took the list, saw the amount written on Gu Siwei, and the ingredients, and opened his mouth and said: "I believe that you can cook now, if you don't know how to cook, the list will definitely not come out."

"I really will, it's not me bragging, I'm doing a good job," Gu Siwei said with a smile.

Xu Congwen flicked the list, turned back to the house and called the cafeteria, and sent someone over what Gu Siwei wanted. And Gu Siwei and Zhu Shiming sat next to the small stone table in the courtyard, Zhu Shiming made tea, and everyone chatted while waiting for tea.

The tea is good tea, the taste is very fragrant, Gu Siwei drank such a fragrant tea for the first time, and he couldn't help but take a second sip after taking a sip.

"How?" Zhu Shiming asked.

"Fragrant, it's really fragrant," Gu Siwei said.

Zhu Shiming listened and said: "Today is also your blessing, usually this old guy is reluctant to take it out, just this half a catty of tea has been hidden for more than a year, and the new tea has been hidden into tea."

At this time, Xu Congwen walked out of the house, heard this and asked, "What are you talking about me?" ”

"Say your tea," Zhu Shiming said.

"Oh, then it's up to you, Xiao Gu, how about this tea."

Xu Congwen sat down as he spoke, directly took the big tea jar on the table and pinched a handful of tea leaves into the jar, and then poured almost half a pot of water into the tea jar.

"Hey, you guy who chews peonies, can you drink this tea like this, you think it's a dollar on the street to buy ten catties of tea, ......."

Xu Congwen didn't do anything, but Zhu Shiming was distressed to death.

"This looks like my tea, right?" Xu Congwen felt for a while that he had made a mistake by mistake, Lao Zhu brought tea leaves.

Looking at these two old men, Gu Siwei was happy: old child, old child, these two people really look like two children when they get along.

Thinking of this, Gu Siwei suddenly thought that when he reached their age, would he also have such a close friend by his side to make trouble?

Gu Siwei felt that it seemed a little difficult!

The two quarreled for a while, everyone sat down to drink tea, drank and drank, and talked about the machine again, until a young man came over and knocked on the door of Xu Congwen's house.

The young man was here to deliver something, and the bike was carrying a big bag of things.

Gu Siwei opened the cloth bag and saw at a glance that there was something missing.
