Chapter 419 Do you think he can find out?
Beijing, Lijia Hutong.
Ning Huai walked through the door that had been opened on the wall between the two courtyards and went to the courtyard next door.
"Da Hu, stop working and come eat first! The food is ready and will be cold soon!"
“Here it comes!”
Wang Dahu put down the things in his hands, brushed off the dust on his body with a towel, then washed his hands before following Ning Huai to the yard next door.
Because the weather is still a bit hot and humid, Shen Anan simply put the food on the stone table in the yard.
"Brother Wang, please sit down. You must be tired after working all day. Come and eat!"
Wang Dahu looked at the three dishes and one soup on the table. Even though it was not the first time they had eaten together, he still felt a pang of pain for Shen Anan and Ning Huai.
On the table were shredded pork with Beijing sauce, steamed pork with rice flour, vegetables with garlic, and a big bowl of tomato and egg soup. I'm afraid ordinary people don't have such delicious dishes during the Chinese New Year.
"Brother Ning, Miss Shen, I'll eat by myself next time! You really don't have to treat me specially!"
"I have a big mouth and I can eat anything. It's such a waste to give me these good things to eat!"
Shen Anan looked at Wang Dahu's distressed expression and knew that he had misunderstood.
She has never been one to treat herself badly, especially when it comes to food and drink.
I guess Wang Dahu thought that she cooked these delicious dishes to entertain him.
No wonder she said that every time they ate, Wang Dahu rarely took any dishes and even only ate one bowl of rice. It turned out that he was afraid that they would spend too much money.
After she learned Wang Dahu's address from Xu Yan, she originally wanted to give him two cans of meat sauce as a thank you.
But after going to the yard where Wang Dahu lived, I found that he actually lived in such an environment.
It is the rainy season recently, and there is not a dry spot on the floor of Wang Dahu's house. As soon as you walk in, the whole place smells damp and moldy.
When she went there, Wang Dahu was squatting at the door eating a black-flour steamed bun.
It just so happened that after she bought the Cao family courtyard, she needed to renovate it, and several houses needed to be demolished and rebuilt.
She and Ning Huai are usually busy and are not at home.
Shen Anan thought about it, and simply discussed with Ning Huai to let Wang Dahu live in Cao's yard first. He didn't need to pay rent, and he just needed to help them keep an eye on the decoration.
Wang Dahu disagreed at first, but only moved in after Ning Huai came to persuade him.
However, they also discovered that Wang Dahu was really hardworking.
Originally, I just wanted him to help keep an eye on the progress of the renovation, but I didn't expect that Wang Dahu would help the workers whenever he was free, and he worked very hard.
It's like they hired an extra worker.
At first they wanted to offer Wang Dahu extra wages, but Wang Dahu refused.
Shen Anan just suggested that he have dinner with them in the afternoon, which could be regarded as a little compensation.
"Da Hu, don't be polite, eat more!"
"If you can't finish it, it will be a waste!"
Ning Huai picked up the serving chopsticks beside him and picked up some food for Wang Dahu.
"Enough, enough, enough is enough!"
Seeing this, Wang Dahu knew that Shen Anan and the others really didn't treat him as an outsider, and he secretly vowed in his heart that he must do more work.
The moon should be quite bright today. With the moonlight shining, I can go back and work for a while.
"Sister Shen, your cooking skills are really good! Especially this steamed pork with rice flour, it tastes really good!"
Wang Dahu's eyes widened, completely conquered by the taste of the delicious food.
He always thought that eating was just about filling his stomach, until he came here and found that the food could be so delicious!
Every meal is a treat for your taste buds!
"Um, Sister Shen, I want to ask you for something!"
After the meal, Wang Dahu helped to clear the table immediately, and then he and Ning Huai washed the dishes.
Normally, after dinner, he would go back to the yard next door immediately, but today he felt embarrassed to stand in front of Shen Anan.
"Brother Wang, if you have anything to say, just tell me directly. I can help you in any way I can."
"Next time you make steamed pork with rice flour, can I watch you? If possible, I'd like to learn how to make it for Aoxue!"
Shen Anan looked at Wang Dahu's expectant expression, not quite sure what expression to put on.
At first, she didn't want to meddle in Song Aoxue's affairs at school.
But after interacting with Wang Dahu these days, I really feel sorry for him.
She also just found out that Wang Dahu actually sold his house in his hometown to support Song Aoxue's studies.
And even though Song Aoxue is now getting along well with Lu Ming in school, she has not given up on Wang Dahu, the scapegoat.
Song Aoxue now meets Wang Dahu in a nearby park every month just to get living expenses from him.
Ning Huai, who was watering the flowers and plants nearby, heard what Wang Dahu said and shook his head secretly.
From what happened on the train, he knew that Song Aoxue was not someone who could live a peaceful life.
These few times when I went to the Chinese Department to pick up Shen Anan, I also ran into Song Aoxue and Lu Ming holding hands.
Hey, there is really something green on Wang Dahu’s head!
Seeing that Shen Anan didn't speak for a long time, Wang Dahu regretted what he had just said.
Sister Shen's cooking skills were so good, maybe there was some secret recipe that couldn't be passed on to others. It was really presumptuous of him to suddenly ask to learn it.
“Sister Shen, if it’s inconvenient, just pretend I didn’t say anything. I’ll go back first.”
"Hey, Brother Wang, wait a minute!"
Shen Anan thought about it, made up her mind, and called Wang Dahu to stop.
"Brother Wang, this steamed pork with rice flour is actually not difficult. It just requires some tricks when making the rice flour on top. It's not difficult to learn."
"Next time I do it, I'll tell you in advance. I guarantee you'll learn it right away."
"Sister Shen, thank you so much! Aoxue will definitely like it."
"Well, Brother Wang, I think you should go to Beijing University to visit Song Aoxue more often when you have nothing to do. After all, couples still need to spend more time together."
"But Aoxue said that if I go to school all the time, it will have a bad influence."
"It doesn't have any bad effects. Ning Huai comes to pick me up from get out of class every day. My classmates are used to it."
“But, but…”
"Brother Wang, if you believe me, go to Beijing University more often, and you will gain something unexpected."
"By the way, remember not to tell Song Aoxue."
"Brother Wang, you are a good person, but you should be more careful about some things."
"Okay, I understand."
After listening to Shen Anan’s words, Wang Dahu was stunned for a moment before turning around and walking towards the next yard.
I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but what Miss Shen said just now seemed to have a hidden meaning…
Only when Wang Dahu disappeared from view did Ning Huai come over and speak in a low voice.
"Wife, do you think he can find out?"
"I don't know, but I have reminded him. I hope he can figure it out!"
"Ah, Da Hu is so unlucky to have such a wife!"
“Who says it’s not?”
