Chapter 114 Xu Damao's Visit

Li Shengli rode his bicycle to Shuijing Hutong.

The relationship has been confirmed, and Li Shengli did not avoid suspicion this time. He knocked on the door and entered the Han family's house.

"Seungri is here." Old Mrs. Han greeted with a smile. She had already learned from Han Qiuyun that the two of them had officially started dating, and now they seemed closer.

"Grandma, here are some freshly-baked rice dumplings." Li Shengli nodded and handed over the rice dumplings in his hand.

"Qiuyun, Qiuyu, take and eat." Old Mrs. Han handed the rice dumplings to the two sisters and asked them to take them out.

"Shengli, come here, let's talk for a while." Old Mrs. Han waved to Li Shengli.

"Old lady, please go ahead." As soon as Li Shengli heard it, he knew that the old lady wanted to tell her something serious.

"Now that you two are officially dating, you should know what Qiu Yu is thinking."

"I know. Don't worry. After Qiuyu graduates, I will marry Qiuyun. After we get married, you and Qiuyun will move to my place. By the way, you can look after the children for Qiuyun and me. I don't have any adults at home, you know that." Li Shengli had made plans long ago. Han Qiuyun seemed to be a person who knew how to live. Han Qiuyu could continue to live here after graduation, and the old lady could live with him, or she could live with Han Qiuyu in the place where they are now.

As for the future, when my children grow up and it is time for reform and opening up, there will be no shortage of houses.

Old Mrs. Han looked at Li Shengli's sincere eyes and nodded secretly. She was attracted by the fact that Li Shengli had no one at home and he had a big house. Unlike some people, who had a large family and were calculating, they were just waiting for Han Qiuyun or Han Qiuyu to get married and take their houses with them.

"I don't need it. I'm old and I have to take care of Qiuyu and wait for him to get married." Old Mrs. Han didn't think about living with Han Qiuyun. She was not young anymore and didn't know how long she could live.

"Old lady, look at what you said. I'm still waiting for you to help me look after my children." In this situation, Li Shengli couldn't just go along with what the old lady said.

"What are you talking about?" Han Qiuyun led Han Qiuyu over with a plate of rice dumplings.

"We were talking about letting the old lady take care of our children when the time comes." Li Shengli joked with a smile.

Han Qiuyun blushed and said nothing, while Han Qiuyu made eyes at her sister.

"Eat quickly, no amount of food can stop your mouth." Looking at Han Qiuyu's expression, Han Qiuyun said shyly to Li Shengli.

Under the kind gaze of Old Lady Han, the four of them shared the rice dumplings and chatted for a while after eating. The day gradually became dark, and Li Shengli was ready to go home. Old Lady Han signaled Han Qiuyun to go out and see him off.

Han Qiuyun escorted Li Shengli out of the yard. The two chatted for a while at the door, and then Li Shengli rode his bicycle back home.

When we got back to the courtyard, it was bustling with activity. Jia Banggeng from the central courtyard was clamoring for rice dumplings. The amount of glutinous rice that each family could buy was limited, so even if they wanted to eat more, they couldn't. After the rice dumplings made by uncle Yi Zhonghai and aunt Yi Zhonghai were delivered to the deaf old lady in the backyard, there were not many left.

"Mom, I want to eat more." Banggeng said as he licked the glutinous rice at the corner of his mouth.

"No more. Sha Zhu sent two here, and they are both in your and your sister's stomachs." Qin Huairu said unhappily.

"Banggeng, go ask Shazhu for it, he still has some." Jia Zhang winked at Banggeng and said.

"Mom, please don't teach him bad things." Qin Huairu said helplessly.

"Shazhu steals food from your factory cafeteria every day, so what's wrong with our Banggeng going to his house to eat a little?" Jia Zhang didn't care and said with a confident look.

Bang Geng didn't say anything, looking at Qin Huairu with longing. "Go ahead, go ahead, and remember to call me Uncle Sha." Qin Huairu still couldn't resist Bang Geng's gaze.

As soon as he got Qin Huairu's permission, Banggeng rushed out immediately, taking Xiaodang with him.

"Uncle Sha, do you have any rice dumplings here?" When they arrived at Sha Zhu's house, Bang Geng pulled Xiao Dang as if it was a matter of course.

It’s no wonder that Shazhu’s way of thinking is different from that of ordinary people. When he saw the little adult appearance of Banggeng, Shazhu found it quite interesting, not to mention that Banggeng brought his sister with him.

This reminded Sha Zhu of the times he stole things when he was a kid.

"Here, take and eat." Sha Zhu stuffed the rice dumplings he was going to eat into Banggeng and Xiaodang's pockets.

"Thank you, Uncle Sha." Xiaodang thanked him politely. Shazhu became even happier when he heard that. He touched Xiaodang's head with a silly smile.

At Li Shengli's house, Xu Damao came to see him just after Li Shengli returned.

"Li Shengli, open the door." Xu Damao knew that Li Shengli had returned when he saw that there was no lock on the door of Li Shengli's house. There were not many people in this courtyard who locked their doors, and usually there was someone at home.

"Xu Damao, why are you here?" Li Shengli was quite surprised. He wondered if he had heard some rumors from others and was here to cause trouble for him.

"Brother, I'll bring you some rice dumplings, and let's have a couple of drinks." Xu Damao went home and ate two rice dumplings. He didn't feel like he had eaten meat. After hearing Lou Xiao'e say that Li Shengli helped to make the rice dumplings for their family, he brought the braised beef and rice dumplings, and a bottle of wine to find Li Shengli for a couple of drinks.

"Come in." Li Shengli didn't understand why Xu Damao was interested in drinking today.

"Da Mao, Shengli, do you want to drink?" Yan Bugui came out of his house and asked after hearing the voices.

This nose is really sensitive.

"Yeah, Damao might have something to say." Li Shengli knew that Yan Bugui wanted to eat for free, but he still had to give some face to Xu Damao since he brought wine and meat.

"Uncle, let's have a drink together?" Xu Damao said tentatively. Xu Damao usually didn't want to offend people, especially those who had some power.

"Okay, I'll go back and get a bottle of wine later." Yan Bugui was so happy that he ran back to get the wine.

Li Shengli shook his head and opened the door: "Come in, Damao."

"Why are you drinking here? Isn't Lou Xiao'e at home?" Li Shengli asked curiously while taking out peanuts from the cupboard to make peanut cakes.

"Well, she made some rice dumplings and said she would take them home for her parents to taste. She won't be back in the evening, so she asked me to weigh some for you." Xu Damao said as he shook the things in his hand.

"Thank you, Damao." Xu Damao is a pretty good person. In the original plot, he didn't let Lou Xiao'e and Qin Jingru help the Jia family because he had already seen through the nature of the Jia family. Just look at the frequency of Qin Huairu borrowing money. Whoever gets involved with his family will be in trouble.

Li Shengli cut the braised beef with soy sauce that Xu Damao brought into slices, put it on a plate and brought it to the table, then fried some peanuts, mixed a cucumber and a Chinese cabbage, and finally fried some chopped green onions and eggs. The three of them finished drinking.

Today I either ate rice dumplings or had dinner, so now I just drink a little with the dishes.

After a while, Yan Bugui came with his wine mixed with water. Li Shengli didn't know what to say, but decided not to drink the wine that Yan Bugui brought.
