Siheyuan: The Final Winner

Yan Jiedi went back anxiously.

After she left, He Yushui "popped" and couldn't help laughing out loud.

Jiang Ping'an turned his head and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Look, Xie Di was so scared, I probably won't be able to sleep at night." He Yushui covered his mouth and smiled lightly.

Jiang Pingan laughed, stepped forward and put his arms around her waist, smelled her neck, and whispered:

"I'm not scaring her. With the temper of the third master, I can really do such a thing."

He Yushui hugged his waist naturally, hummed softly, and narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Brother, I'm afraid the people from the street office are coming." After a while, she reminded softly.

If it weren't for the crowd, she really didn't want to leave Jiang Ping'an's arms right now.

Jiang Pingan took a deep breath, lightly opened He Yushui, nodded and said:

"Let's go, the people in the yard are probably coming to gather soon."

He Yushui pursed his lips and smiled, arranged his clothes and hair, and followed Jiang Pingan out.

When I came to the courtyard, no one came.

The fragrance of vegetables is pervasive, and every family is preparing delicious food on New Year's Eve.

He Yushui smiled and said, "I'll go back and add some clothes."

"Go, don't worry." Jiang Pingan nodded and smiled.

When He Yushui went to the middle courtyard, Jiang Ping'an turned around and went to the toilet.

When I came back, I saw that all the people in the yard had gathered in the front yard.

Everyone lined up in two teams and came to the door, ready to line up to welcome.

Jiang Ping'an was pulled over by the three uncles and stood at the front to act as a facade.

"Jiang Pingan, do you want to go to the bathhouse together later?" He Yuzhu asked loudly.

Jiang Pingan nodded and said, "Go ahead, I also want to cut my hair along the way."

"That's right, I want to cut my hair too." He Yuzhu smiled.

Yi Zhonghai at the side answered, "Let's go together later, there are so many people."

He Yuzhu said hello, looked around again, and asked everyone loudly:

"Anyone else going to the bathhouse? Go there together!"

Liu Haizhong smiled and said, "Our family is going there too."

"I just took a shower, changed into clean clothes, and greeted the New Year neatly."

Then a large group of people joined in.

When it was commotion, people from the street office came beating gongs and drums.

The drums are clanging and majestic.

Director Wang led a group of cadres from the streets and communities.

He went up to shake hands with the three uncles and Jiang Pingan to congratulate.

The warm applause rang out, deafening.

Everyone is excited and smiling.

At the same time, Liu Guangqi lit a set of firecrackers prepared in advance.

The smell of gunpowder filled the air, and the surrounding crowd applauded.

These days, advanced honors are no joke, they are really respected.

"Congratulations, you have won the honor of Advanced Siheyuan for many years in a row!" Director Wang said with a smile on his face.

After shaking hands with Jiang Pingan and the others.

Director Wang led the cadres, shook hands with the masses one by one, and distributed supplies at the same time.

The applause continued, getting louder and louder.

The supplies were brought in by tricycles, and each family distributed a small bamboo basket with red paper on it.

It contained two canned pork, two catties of flour, one catty of eggs, and one catty of brown sugar;

One catty of soybean oil, two taels of sweet potato vermicelli, two taels of vermicelli, one tael of fungus, one tael of yellow flower, and one tael of alkali noodles.

There is also a two-pound package of melon seeds, peanuts, candy, biscuits, persimmon cakes, peppercorns, and aniseed ingredients.

Everyone smiled when they received the supplies.

The onlookers all showed envious looks.

So many things, several kinds are more than a family's ration.

For example, vermicelli, one tael per household during the Chinese New Year, aniseed, fungus, yellow flower, and alkaline noodles are only half a tael.

However, the rewards issued are doubled directly, which really makes people jealous.

After the materials were distributed, the applause stopped and Director Wang spoke...

After speaking, Yi Zhonghai, as the representative of the courtyard, also said a few words, and then announced the dissolution.

"Ping An, why don't you come to my house for a light meal?" Director Wang invited.

"Thank you, Miss Wang. Unfortunately, I promised the uncle earlier that I would go to his house for a reunion dinner."

Director Wang nodded and smiled, "Forget it."

"After the Chinese New Year, when you come back from the countryside, you must come to my house for dinner!"

"Speaking of which, I have invited you several times."

"You are not a big boy, but you are very polite and not cheerful at all."

Jiang Pingan smiled and said, "Okay, after the Chinese New Year, I will make time to visit."

"Hehe, I told you that you are welcome, and you are not allowed to bring gifts when you come, just come here empty-handed."

After exchanging pleasantries, Director Wang left with a group of cadres.

Back in the courtyard, He Yushui stepped forward holding the bamboo basket and said with a smile:

"Brother Ping'an, why don't I give this to you, and you can take it to the countryside to eat."

"Hehe, you're not afraid that your brother will scold you later!"

Jiang Pingan shook his head, moved closer, and whispered:

"I went back to the countryside and prepared the New Year's supplies in advance, but I didn't bring them back to the courtyard."

"Keep these for yourself to eat at home, don't worry about me, don't worry, I'm not short of food!"

He Yushui was all mouthful, a little disappointed, nodded and said:

"Okay, then I'll go back first, and I'm going to help my mother cook."

"Go, I'll come over later." Jiang Ping'an smiled.

After He Yushui left, Jiang Pingan returned home with the bamboo basket in his arms, took out the things and put them away one by one.

Then, he brought out two bottles of Erguotou and three catties of bacon from the space.

The bacon was wrapped in newspaper, and it would be cooked at Yi Zhonghai's house later.

After tidying up, I took the clothes, washbasin, and towels.

Together with the people in the courtyard, they busily went to the bathhouse to take a bath and cut their hair.

When we came back, it was already dark.

Jiang Pingan didn't delay, and walked to the middle courtyard with his things.

Came to Yi Zhonghai's house.

Jiang Pingan put two bottles of wine on the table, and handed the bacon to the aunt who was making tea.

"Hehe, is it really bacon?" The first mother asked in surprise.

Yi Zhonghai, who was sitting and smoking, looked up curiously, and said with a smile:

"It's no wonder that Shazhu said to invite you over, it will definitely not be a loss."

"It's not a loss, is it? It's clearly a big profit!"

With that said, he handed Jiang Pingan a cigarette.

Jiang Pingan took the cigarette and said with a smile: "At first I only wanted to bring two bottles of wine, but I thought about it later."

"Silly Zhu produced a chicken. I can't be compared to him, so I brought this meat."

At this time, He Yuzhu entered the room with the deaf old lady on his back, and said with a smile:

"Usually I can't take advantage of you, but I didn't expect to be able to eat your meat today."

The deaf old lady was on his back, smiling openly, "It's good to have meat, I love meat the most!"

After He Yuzhu put her down and sat down, she continued:

"I heard that Ping An is willing to take out the bacon to eat, and the old lady is also generous today."

"After dinner later, I will give you a few unmarried ones, each with a big red envelope!"

Jiang Pingan laughed loudly, nodded and said: "Then you have to be big, I won't follow you if you are small!"

While talking, Xu Ningan came to the door, smiled and said:

"It's very lively! Ping An, come to my house for a few drinks?"

"Don't refuse, my family's reunion dinner is ready, just have a few drinks."

"When the meal here is ready, I won't keep you either, just come over here again."

Jiang Pingan nodded and smiled, "Alright, I've always refused anyone who comes to drink!"

Then, after talking to Yi Zhonghai and the others, he followed Xu Ningan to the backyard.
