When returning from Shek Kip Mei, Shi Zhijian stopped by to visit his old neighbors Uncle Da Xia, Mrs. Qing Lin, and Brother Liu San.
Everyone was extremely enthusiastic when they saw Shi Zhijian. Before leaving, they insisted on asking Shi Zhijian to bring salted fish, dried vegetables and the like. They said that Shi Zhijian and the others were now city dwellers and could not usually eat such local specialties. And
He said that Shi Yufeng loved making salted fish porridge the most, and he could make more for himself after returning home.
Shi Zhijian did not reject everyone's kindness.
In fact, one thing he knew very well was that the people of Shek Kip Mei wanted to express their gratitude to their brother and sister in this way.
In particular, Shi Yufeng, a frugal person who wished he could break a penny in half and spend it, was willing to spend 30,000 yuan to help everyone build a water tower. This kind of kindness alone will be unfulfilled by many people in Shek Kip Mei.
Of course, Shi Zhijian did not tell everyone that since donating money to build a water tower, his elder sister almost hit her head against the wall. She suffered from insomnia for three days and lost three kilograms.
With a car full of salted fish and dried vegetables, Shi Zhijian drove back to Causeway Bay.
Parking under the tenement building, Shi Zhijian looked at the lights on the first floor and saw that the people in Jiahe were still working overtime.
Shi Zhijian generously took out salted fish and dried vegetables as rewards for overtime work.
After everyone received the reward, their interest in working overtime instantly increased. However, the office was filled with the smell of salted fish, which made everyone uncomfortable.
Shi Zhijian opened his arms and carried the remaining salted fish and dried vegetables with both hands, and went up the stairs to the third floor. He first stopped at the door of Nie Yongqin's rental house for a while, and when he saw that there was no movement inside, he walked towards his home.
Since Shi Zhijian, the "artistic director", came up with the idea to design "pole dance" and "rabbit dance" for the ** dance hall, the entire dance hall business began to become booming.
As the top signer of a dance club, Nie Yongqin often works until two or three o'clock in the morning, and sometimes even lives in the dance club for safety.
Shi Zhijian carried the salted fish to the door of his house, and he could already hear the chatter coming from the door.
He pressed his fingers twice on the door panel, and soon the door was opened from the inside. The person who opened the door was not his sister or Bao'er, but Hu Juncai.
"Mr. Shi?" Hu Juncai stepped back and gave his place inside the door to wait for Shi Zhijian to come in.
"Why are you here?" Shi Zhijian looked surprised. He looked into the living room and saw that the newly bought TV was on and playing a cable TV program. It was the Cantonese opera "The Hairpin", starring famous opera actors Ren Jianhui and Bai Xuexian.
Starring.
There are three people sitting on the round dining table in front of the TV. One is my elder sister Shi Yufeng, one is Bao'er, and the other one is Huo Yong.
"Uh, Ayong, why are you here?"
When Shi Zhijian came in, Hu Yong had already stood up from the dining table. Seeing Shi Zhijian asking questions, he hurriedly swallowed the food in his mouth, scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "Sister Yufeng, let me eat."
"Me too!" Hu Juncai hurriedly came over and said, "Sister Yufeng also allowed me to eat!"
Shi Zhijian handed the salted fish he was carrying to Hu Juncai.
Over there, Hu Xiuyong hurriedly stepped forward and took the dried vegetables that Shi Zhijian was carrying in his other hand.
"What good thing have you done? My sister will treat you to dinner?" Shi Zhijian took off his coat and hung it on the hanger.
Seeing Shi Zhijian's question, Shi Yufeng swallowed the food in his mouth carelessly, put down his chopsticks, stood up, turned towards Shi Zhijian, and said, "Why? Because of this!"
Shi Zhijian looked at his elder sister and saw that she was wearing a blue-bottomed floral jacket with a narrow waist and narrow sleeves. On her legs were women's trousers as loose as a skirt. She was smiling proudly at him with a pretty face.
Shi Zhijian frowned: "You are a nymphomaniac!"
"Excuse me! Didn't you see that I'm wearing a new suit? Hey, this top was bought for me by Juncai, and these pants were bought by Ayong for me! How do you like it? Do they look good?"
Shi Zhijian looked at Hu Juncai and Hu Huyong. They both looked embarrassed and said in unison: "A small gift is not respectful!"
Shi Zhijian pointed at them, "You two are stupid! When buying clothes, how can there be no sense in buying only tops and not pants, and only buying pants and not tops? You have to piece them together to fit!"
"It's mainly due to lack of experience," Hu Juncai said.
"Yes, yes, I used to buy my own clothes and never bought women's clothes!" said Hu Yong.
Shi Yufeng put her hands on her hips and said to Shi Zhijian: "Although they are a little stupid, they still have good intentions! How about you, you have been my little brother for so long, how many times have you ever bought me clothes?"
Shi Zhijian was mute and quickly changed the topic: "I'm hungry, let's serve the food first!"
"Why, did I hit my weak spot? I really don't know how I could have a brother like you who doesn't know how to be hot or cold! I've left the food for you a long time ago, and I don't know when you will come back to eat it! The food I left before was hot again, but
Without seeing your ghost, either staying outside or not returning home, this place is more like a hotel!" Shi Yufeng complained, but dragged her lame leg to the kitchen to help prepare food for Shi Zhijian.
Shi Zhijian walked to Bao'er. The person sitting next to Bao'er was originally Husband Yong. Husband Yong hurriedly picked up his bowls and chopsticks to make room, then gave his chair to Shi Zhijian, and then stood side by side with Hu Juncai.
In front of Shi Zhijian.
Shi Zhijian sat down on the chair and reached out to roll up the cuffs of his shirt. Seeing that the two of them were still standing stupidly, he said, "Sit down, what are you doing in a daze?"
Hu Juncai and Hu Juncai looked at each other and hurriedly found a seat to sit down.
He sat down but didn't dare to say a word, with his back straight and his head held high like a soldier waiting for the meal in the cafeteria.
Seeing them like this, Shi Zhijian couldn't help but said, "Aren't you tired from looking like this?"
"Not tired!" Hu Juncai said.
"I'm used to it!" Hu Xiuyong said.
Shi Zhijian nodded, "It's up to you!" As he spoke, he reached out to take out a cigarette from his pocket and wanted to light it. Bao'er, who was sitting next to him, reached out and grabbed the cigarette. He tilted his head and pouted his mouth and said, "
Mom said you are not allowed to smoke while eating."
Shi Zhijian smiled and patted Bao'er's head, "When did you listen to your mother so much?"
At this time, Shi Yufeng came over with food, a large bowl of rice covered with fatty meat and enoki mushrooms.
"Hey, I left this bowl of rice in the steamer. Eat it while it's hot!"
Hu Juncai and Hu Xiuyong looked at the dining table with a tacit understanding. There were all kinds of food, but they were all plain, either dried tofu or cabbage, without any oil or water.
Shi Yufeng coughed and seemed to know what the two of them were thinking, "I don't know if you two are coming. I usually eat these things! The fat meat is only reserved for me, the younger one!"
Baoer added: "Leave it for me too, I've eaten it in the kitchen!"
Shi Yufeng hurriedly cut off her daughter's words, "The child is young and needs to grow!"
Shi Zhijian was holding a bowl full of fatty meat, but he couldn't take off his chopsticks at this moment.
The contrast is obvious. My sister is too partial. After all, she is also a guest.
