"Daqing, stop making trouble."
"We have to catch the train back to Baocheng at daybreak!"
Winter of 1951, Nanluoguxiang.
Snowflakes are falling outside the house.
The bed board in the room creaked.
Half an hour later, He Daqing finally stopped, feeling refreshed.
Touching the soft White Widow beside him, He Daqing, who had just traveled through time, was barely comforted to a certain extent.
That’s right, He Daqing traveled through time.
He was originally an ordinary chef who graduated from New Oriental. Someone from the neighboring village invited him to cook for a wedding banquet. Everything was fine. At night, the groom insisted on toasting him. As a result, the groom got drunk and lay on the bed with the bride in a daze. Then he traveled to the world of the courtyard.
He is now thirty-five years old, in the prime of his life.
His son He Yuzhu was sixteen years old, and his daughter He Yushui was only seven years old. Lying next to them was the White Widow. The lease on the rented house was about to expire.
At daybreak, they would follow the White Widow to Baocheng, and then work hard to help the White Widow feed her children.
A few decades later, after the White Widow died, he was abandoned by a few ungrateful people. In the end, he had no choice but to come back to find Sha Zhu to take care of him in his old age.
Since he knew the outcome, He Daqing naturally would not follow the White Widow to defend the city.
He gave up his job as a chef at Fengzeyuan, traveled thousands of miles to a place where he was unfamiliar with the place, and worked hard to recruit people, but in the end he didn't have a child to support him in his old age. What was the point?
Don't go.
Definitely not going!
and.
According to his memory, He Daqing discovered that the reason why his predecessor went to defend the city was not only because the White Widow was too attractive, but also because he was threatened by the deaf old lady and others. They said that there were photos of him cooking for the puppet army, and if they were found by the higher-ups, he would definitely be implicated.
The frightened He Daqing happened to meet the White Widow who wanted to return to Baocheng. The two hit it off and decided to go to Baocheng to live a peaceful life.
However, the current He Daqing is no longer the original He Daqing.
The beasts in the courtyard could scare their predecessors, but they couldn't scare themselves.
It's just a photo of cooking for puppet soldiers. It's not important evidence at all. In that chaotic era, which chef hadn't cooked for those people? If we use this standard, wouldn't they all be doomed?
"Joy from the White Widow +10!"
"Joy from the White Widow +10!"
"Grudge value from the White Widow +10!"
While He Daqing was thinking, the voice of the system came from his mind.
Emotional reward system, as long as you collect enough emotional values, you can get random rewards from the system.
Yes, with the system in hand, as a chef of Fengze Garden, why should I be afraid of not being able to find a wife?
However, he understood the value of joy, so why did the White Widow become resentful in just a short while?
He Daqing frowned, then hugged the White Widow and went in from behind.
"Joy from the White Widow +10!"
"Congratulations to the host, you have won a cash reward of 100 yuan. It has been automatically deposited into the system space!"
He Daqing, "..."
Never mind, never mind. Husband and wife for a day are bound by a hundred days of grace.
They are breaking up tomorrow, so let the White Widow be happy as long as possible.
There's nothing I can do about it, it's just that I'm kind-hearted.
Holding the White Widow in his arms, the exhausted He Daqing fell asleep soon.
"Qing, Qing!"
Early the next morning, when He Daqing opened his eyes, he found that the White Widow had packed his luggage neatly and was urging him to leave.
"Daqing, I've packed everything. Hurry up and get up. We'll eat something and then set off!"
Maybe it was because she had received too much nourishment last night, or because of the thought of being able to go home and see her precious children soon, but the White Widow's face was filled with undisguised excitement.
However, despite her repeated urging, He Daqing, lying on the bed, did not move.
"Daqing, what do you mean?"
Widow Bai noticed something was wrong and looked at He Daqing with a frown.
This guy has no intention of leaving at all.
"Xiaobai."
He Daqing sat up slowly and looked at the White Widow.
"I thought about it all night and I feel it's not right to go to Baocheng with you. Yushui is only seven years old. If I leave, what will happen to her? Shazhu is sixteen years old, which is the age of rebellion. If he goes astray, how can I face his mother..."
The White Widow widened her eyes and looked at He Daqing in disbelief, then her face suddenly became extremely angry.
You're so good, He Daqing. What have you been thinking about all night? You were restless all night yesterday, okay?
I thought you were greedy for my body, but it turns out you had planned to let me go alone a long time ago, and you wanted to take advantage of this last night to torture me as much as possible, right?
When she thought of this, the White Widow felt sick.
"He Daqing, I'll give you one more chance. Will you come with me or not?"
Widow Bai glared at He Daqing and questioned him again.
"Xiaobai, why don't you go back to Baocheng and bring the kids here. I'll raise them!"
He Daqing sat on the bed, motionless.
"You...you're...you're He Daqing!"
Widow Bai pointed at He Daqing and gritted her teeth in anger.
"You are a big liar! If you don't leave, we will break up and you will never see me again!"
Having said that, he didn't bother to argue with He Daqing anymore. He put on his luggage and walked out of the house angrily.
The White Widow had thought about bringing her children to the city of Sijiu, but it was simply not feasible.
Firstly, the cost of living in Beijing is very high. She is just an ordinary worker, how can she afford it? Although He Daqing has a high salary, his house is not big, and he has a son and a daughter. If they live together, they can't afford it.
Secondly, even if I want to bring a few children here, my parents-in-law will not agree. After all, they are their bloodline...
Originally, I thought that I could take this guy back to Baocheng with me while He Daqing was angry with me. But I never expected that He Daqing would not fall into my trap when I was about to leave!
"He can't bear to leave me, he will definitely come after me!"
The White Widow, carrying her luggage, walked towards the train station, calculating in her mind.
She and He Daqing have known each other for nearly half a year. Whenever they had a fight, as soon as she mentioned breaking up and turned away, He Daqing would chase after her.
If this guy chases after her later, she must be tough and drag him to defend the city! Otherwise, the night is long and dreams are many, and it will be too late for her to fool He Daqing again.
However, after walking for half an hour, the White Widow did not see anyone behind her.
"He Daqing! You're serious!"
The White Widow stamped her feet in anger.
Seeing that there was no one behind her, and then looking at the train station in front of her, White Widow gritted her teeth and finally chose to walk into the train station.
She can live without a man, but she can't bear to give up her children.
"Huh... this plague god is finally gone!"
Watching the White Widow get on the train, He Daqing finally breathed a sigh of relief in a dark corner not far away.
There is no such thing as love when you reach middle age.
He and the White Widow were together simply because they needed each other.
The White Widow needs a man to lean on.
He Daqing needs a woman to sleep with.
But now he will not join forces for the White Widow.
Shaking his head helplessly, He Daqing turned around and walked towards Fengze Garden.
Having severed his relationship with the White Widow, he is now heading towards a new life.
Make some money, marry a beautiful wife and live a good life, then your life in this world will be worthwhile.
"Huh? This is..."
However, when He Daqing passed by a bus station, he saw a familiar figure standing there gracefully.
The woman had picturesque eyebrows and a plump figure. She looked around curiously with her big eyes, her expression full of uneasiness.
Isn’t this Qin Huairu in the courtyard?
Still the eighteen-year-old Qin Huairu!
Next to Qin Huairu stood a middle-aged woman, whom He Daqing also knew. She was Zhang the matchmaker who was trying to matchmake for Jia Dongxu next door a few days ago!
Oh my goodness, this is Matchmaker Zhang taking Qin Huairu to go on a blind date with Jia Dongxu!
