Ye Jibai didn't want Lin Weiwan to run out to buy vegetables all the time. It would take at least a month to get enough food from the vegetable garden in the yard.
"What's my big deal? Don't worry, I have enough food, just come and get it." Miao Yuxiang responded readily.
My old Lu and Xiao Ye are close friends, and they are the closest to each other in this courtyard.
After coming from Lu's house, Ye Ji and Bai Lin returned to their own yard in the evening.
I started packing up the things I bought from outside and put all the peach candies into the cupboard.
The bowls and chopsticks were also taken out of the bamboo basket, and Ye Jibai filled the basin with water to wash everything again.
Lin Weiwan brought the vegetables and meat and prepared to cook in the evening. He looked at the time and it was already past three o'clock.
"What's wrong? If you're tired, come in and rest for a while. I'll take care of the rest." Ye Jibai hugged Lin Weiwan's shoulders.
He turned around and hugged Ye Jibai's waist. Through the thin shirt, his strong muscles screamed in Lin Weiwan's palm.
"You will return to the team tomorrow and rest together." Lin Weiwan buried his whole body in Ye Jibai's chest.
"Hmm...Okay, let's take a nap." As he said that, Ye Jibai slightly bent his waist and picked up Lin Weiwan by the waist and walked towards the inner room.
In the evening, Fat Hu came over and was really fed up with the atmosphere between the couple.
But the smell of the meat in the pot instantly made me forget the discomfort.
The aroma of the meat gradually became stronger, and it drifted away with the breeze even before the lid was removed.
Many children did not wait for dinner at home, but went straight to the yard to look for the meat following the smell.
Soon seven children of different sizes gathered at the door.
"Brother Douzi, the fragrance comes from here." The girl sniffed hard through the gap in the door.
"Xiaoying, please come closer and let me take a look." Wang Xiaodou peered inside through the crack in the door.
"It must be stewed meat, it smells so good. Hiss..." Ermao sucked back his saliva.
"Ermao, you squat down. I'll climb up and take a look." Wang Xiaodou pulled Ermao to the wall.
"Brother Douzi, be gentle. I'm afraid of pain." Ermao squatted against the wall.
A 2-year-old child is about 1.2 meters tall and can just climb onto the wall by stepping on Ermao's body.
With his hands on the wall, Wang Xiaodou looked into the house, but he couldn't see anything from this position.
"Brother Douzi, I can't hold on any longer, come here quickly." Ermao could soon no longer bear Wang Xiaodou's weight and his whole legs began to tremble.
"What are you guys doing? Why don't you go home?" Zhao Hongmei smelled the fragrance and came over to see a group of kids scratching the wall next door. She shouted suddenly.
The children were so frightened that they ran away in panic. Ermao fell down out of fear, and Wang Xiaodou also fell over.
The sound of the child crying spread quickly, and many people looked out the windows.
When Zhao Hongmei saw the bloody head on the boy's forehead, she was so scared that she ran back to her home and locked the door tightly.
“Bang, bang, bang….bang, bang, bang…Open the door. Open the door.”
The three people who were chatting and laughing stopped talking when they heard a knock on the door.
Ye Jibai walked out to see who was knocking on the door. Fat Hu followed him.
Lin Weiwan poured the braised pork with fermented bean curd into a large bowl to prevent it from getting burnt.
I refilled the pot with water and prepared to clean it, then drew some firewood before going with 눕 to check.
"Captain Ye, you are at home. I thought you were not here. Look at my grandson's head banging in your house. Why did you close the door and not even look at the child crying for a long time?"
Old Mrs. Wang pulled Wang Xiaodou, and was so angry that she stretched her neck like a pheasant with its feathers blown off.
"Hey, Auntie Wang, I don't understand what you are saying. What does it have to do with us if your eldest grandson hit his head outside?" Hu Xiaopang asked in a nonchalant tone.
After staying in this yard for a long time, I know everyone's family and what they are like.
"Hu Jingui, what are you talking about? Look at what happened to my grandson. If you don't give me an explanation today, we can go to the commander to have a debate."
"What's wrong with us? We didn't push your grandson, so are we responsible if a child gets bumped on the street?" Hu Xiaopang felt that this old lady Wang was not as difficult as the rumors said. She would argue with him no matter how unreasonable he was.
"Why didn't my grandson bump into someone else's house, but yours? If you say that, we have to have a good talk."
Old Mrs. Wang felt heartbroken when she saw her eldest grandson crying.
Bah... what a jerk. He locked the door while cooking some meat. And why did he make so much dried tofu? Look, he even knocked the child down.
"Okay, let's send him to the sanitation center first." Ye Jibai looked at Wang Xiaodou's forehead which was still bleeding and bent down to hold the child.
"Don't touch my grandson. Don't even think about touching my grandson unless you pay me."
Old Mrs. Wang suddenly sat on the ground to stop Ye Jibai.
"Let go." Ye Ji Ye looked at the old lady in front of him with a cold face.
Old Mrs. Wang was also frightened by this momentum. Thinking about how she had often asked for favors in the past, her original fear was forcibly suppressed.
Ye Jibai wanted to push Old Lady Wang away, but was afraid of hurting anyone, so his face turned very dark.
A group of people gradually gathered nearby to watch the excitement, pointing and talking as they watched.
Wang Xiaodou covered his injured forehead and cried. He was afraid that his father would beat him when he got home, so he could only sit there and cry.
Lin Weiwan took a handful of candy and stuffed it into Xiaodouzi's hand, "Be good, don't cry, tell auntie how you got hurt."
"What does he know? He is just a little kid. You must take care of it if he gets hurt in your house." Old Mrs. Wang yelled relentlessly.
Wang Xiaodou looked at the candy in her hand and forgot to cry for a moment. In the past, she could only see candy during Chinese New Year and she couldn't eat too much of it.
"I fell down because I was scared." Wang Xiaodou did want to go in and steal a piece of meat, and his whole mind was focused on the fragrance coming from the yard.
"Oh, it's not a big deal, the child just bumped into something, Captain Ye, please take the child to the clinic immediately.
Aunt Wang, it's not right for you to love your grandson but not let others take him to see the doctor.
Those who know you love your grandson think you are lying. If you have something to say, just say it clearly. "
Zhao Hongmei came out from the yard and gave kind advice.
"You're talking nonsense. I'm just afraid that they won't admit it. Look at what Hu Jingui said. He's still the deputy head of the group."
How could Old Lady Wang be afraid? Of course, she had to let the other party speak well about the compensation, otherwise it would be in vain.
"Director Xia is here." Someone shouted, and the crowd gradually dispersed.
A middle-aged woman with short hair wearing a white short-sleeved shirt and black cloth trousers walked over.
"Auntie Wang, Xiaodou should go to the health center. What do you mean by holding him back?"
When Old Lady Wang heard Director Xia's voice, her whole body trembled.
"I'm afraid they won't admit it, right?"
"Was it Captain Ye's family who injured your grandson?" Xia Jinghe asked the people nearby.
Everyone shook their heads in confusion. It was time to cook and eat, and no one paid attention to the outside world.
