Siheyuan: If you have the butcher's knife in your hand, let's try again.

"Jingjing, Jingjing is up..."

Lin Bai was still asleep when he was woken up by a knock on the door.

The person who knocked on the door called Jingjing. He should be looking for Xu Mengjing next door, but he found the wrong door.

Lin Bai got up, put on his clothes and opened the door. Standing outside the door was a girl with braided hair.

It looked familiar, as if I had seen it somewhere.

After thinking about it for a while, I remembered, isn't this Yu Haitang, Yu Li's sister, and the announcer of the steel rolling mill.

In the play, she also liked Silly Zhu.

She and Xu Mengjing should be colleagues, so they came to see her.

"You're here to see Xu Mengjing, right? Her house is next door and you knocked on the wrong door."

"I'm sorry, it's my first time here and I don't know the situation."

It was a big mistake, and Yu Haitang blushed and apologized repeatedly.

At this time, Xu Mengjing came back with a bag of vegetables.

Today we are entertaining Yu Haitang, who went out to buy groceries early in the morning.

"Haitang, you're here!"

Seeing Xu Mengjing coming back, Yu Haitang ran towards her and took her hand.

"Jingjing, where have you been? I knocked on the wrong door. I'm so embarrassed."

"Hahaha, why are you so careless? Please apologize to Brother Lin."

"I have apologized, but I don't know if he still blames me."

Knocking on the wrong door is no big deal, "it's okay."

Lin Bai smiled and glanced at Yu Haitang, finding that she was staring at him passionately.

Huh! She is affectionate, does she have a crush on herself? It shouldn't be so soon after we just met.

But I remember that in the drama she fell in love with Silly Zhu as soon as she met him.

Maybe she was more sentimental, but Lin Bai didn't take it seriously.

The two walked hand in hand like sisters and walked into the house. Xu Mengjing asked as they walked:

"Brother Lin, have you just gotten up? Why don't we have dinner together later?"

Xu Mengjing was the first person in the courtyard to invite him to dinner. No one had ever invited him to dinner since moving to this courtyard.

If the animals in the courtyard don't invite him to dinner, he won't invite them to dinner. Even if an animal invites him to dinner, he won't go.

Xu Mengjing is different from animals, she can eat her food.

Coincidentally, I have to go to the factory to do some errands today and I don’t know when I will be back, so I won’t be able to eat this meal.

Lin Bai smiled faintly and rejected Xu Mengjing.

"Thank you for your kindness. I have to go to the factory to do some work later."

"It's troublesome to be delayed on things in the factory. I've taken care of the meal. I'll treat you to dinner next time I'm free."

"That's what you said, it's a deal!"

Lin Bai's casual words were taken seriously by Yu Haitang, and she stretched out her little finger to pull the hook.

This little passionate girl!

Lin Bai had no choice but to bite the bullet and held her hand symbolically.

"Alright Haitang, Brother Lin has to go to work, so don't embarrass him. Let's go inside and cook."

Xu Mengjing carried the vegetables and walked into the house, when the door of Qin Huairu's house opposite suddenly opened with a clang.

Qin Huairu walked out of the room, folding her arms and shouting.

"Noisy, noisy, noisy, noisy in the morning, and even prevented people from sleeping."

Yu Haitang and Xu Mengjing looked at each other, who was this person with such a big temper?

He didn't speak loudly, so why did he wake her up to sleep?

They both thought it was about the sound, but only Lin Bai knew that she was angry because of jealousy.

Ever since Xu Mengjing moved in yesterday, Qin Huairu's anger has not gone away.

Before Xu Mengjing moved in, she was the only unmarried girl in the courtyard, so she would naturally be praised highly by the bachelors in the courtyard.

To be honest, Qin Huairu looks decent and somewhat pretty.

But compared with Xu Mengjing, she is incomparable, not even a little bit worse.

Her face is not as good as Mengjing's, and her figure is not as good as Mengjing's. Not only is she not as good as her at work.

Xu Mengjing is a regular employee of the steel rolling mill, while Qin Huairu is just a temporary worker in the soap factory.

Temporary workers' wages are not as high as those of regular employees, and they have fewer benefits. They can be laid off at any time.

After Xu Mengjing moved in, Shazhu and others all flocked to her place, which made Neptune Qin Huairu unbearable.

Only then would she deliberately get angry at Xu Mengjing over a trivial matter.

Xu Mengjing was a person who hated arguments. She didn't want to cause trouble with her, so she pulled Yu Haitang and walked into the house.

"Haitang is gone, don't pay attention to her and go in to cook."

Although Yu Haitang is a girl, she has the temper of a young man and is very fiery.

When she was scolded, she didn't endure it like Xu Mengjing did. Instead, she stared at Qin Huairu, ready to have a fight with her at any time.

Seeing Yu Haitang's unconvinced face and fearing that she would cause trouble, Xu Mengjing pulled the corner of her clothes to signal her not to cause trouble.

"Okay, let's go in."

Yu Haitang thought for a moment and thought that Xu Mengjing had just moved here and it was not appropriate to cause trouble for her, so she tolerated it.

"Huh, what kind of virtue is it to do something so early in the morning!"

Yu Haitang cursed in a low voice before entering the house with Xu Mengjing.

As soon as they stepped into the house, Qin Huairu poured a basin of cold water into the courtyard with a sound of "Plop!"

The water splashed everywhere, hitting Yu Haitang and Xu Mengjing.

Lin Bai's arm was also splashed with water, and when he smelled it, there was a strange smell.

I picked up a drop of it with my finger and tasted it. It tasted salty.

Damn it, what Qin Huairu splashed was last night’s foot-washing water!

"Woman, it's hard to find her so early in the morning!"

Lin Bai was about to run away and teach Qin Huairu a lesson, but Yu Haitang beat him to it.

"Splash on your grandma, someone is dead in the family, you stupid thing!"

Lin Bai was slightly surprised. Yu Haitang was quite good at scolding. Now he didn't have to do it himself. He just sat back and watched her fight with Qin Huairu.

Qin Huairu was worried that she had nowhere to vent her anger, but now she was relieved. She would not hold it in when she was scolded, and immediately came back.

"It didn't happen to your house. Who do you blame if you don't have eyesight?"

"The yard is so wide, but it is splashed here. I think you obviously did it on purpose!"

"I usually do this, do you care? Where did you come from, a wild girl!"

"I will take care of you if you spill it on me."

"Then you don't care. I wonder how dare you dare to act wild in the courtyard."

The two of them scolded each other more and more vigorously. Yu Haitang rolled up his sleeves and started to fight with her.

Qin Huairu is a talker who can only scold but not hit, but Yu Haitang is different and is an activist.

"I will take care of you for throwing water around. If I don't take care of you today, I won't call you Yu Haitang!"

Yu Haitang walked down the steps towards Qin Huairu, but was grabbed by Xu Mengjing.

"Haitang, don't fight. We are here to celebrate moving into a new house."

"But she is too bullying. I can't swallow this breath."

"Forget it, if she doesn't let you, just step back. Look, I even bought meat."

Yu Haitang swept a bag of vegetables from Xu Mengjing's hand and gradually regained her composure under Xu Mengjing's persuasion.

"For Xu Mengjing's sake, I'll spare you this time. I'll deal with you next time!"

"Why did you just leave? Didn't you want to fight? Instead, you came out to fight."

Yu Haitang and Xu Mengjing both entered the room, and Qin Huairu kept cursing. After scolding for a long time, no one paid attention to her, and she gave up when she felt bored.

Her appearance suddenly reminded Lin Bai, who was watching the battle, of a person - Jia Zhang.

Qin Huairu was so jealous that she looked like a scoundrel, especially Jia Zhang.

It's really not that the whole family does not enter the door.

"Wow! Pork belly!"

Inside the house, Yu Haitang saw the meat in the bag and screamed excitedly. She hadn't eaten meat in a long time.

Xu Mengjing bought the meat just to move into a new house, but she was usually reluctant to buy it.

The money I earned was saved except for buying daily necessities.

"Mengjing, just stir-fry two vegetarian dishes and eat them. Why not spend money to buy such good meat?"

"Didn't I just buy it when I saw you coming? Let's be happy together. Take out all the vegetables and start cooking right away."

Yu Haitang put all the vegetables in his pocket on the chopping board, and the two of them started cooking, washing the vegetables over the fire, and finished three dishes in half an hour.

A plate of fried shredded pork with chili, a plate of fried shredded pork with cabbage, and a plate of cold cucumber.

The reason why I stir-fry two plates of shredded pork is because the shredded pork is scattered in the basin and appears to be more.

When the dishes were ready and served on the table, Xu Mengjing scooped up two bowls of rice, and the two of them sat down and started eating.

Yu Haitang impatiently picked up a chopstick and chewed the shredded green pepper pork in his mouth, "Hmm...it's really delicious."

Xu Mengjing smiled and picked up a chopstick of shredded pork with green pepper.

After just two bites, Xu Damao opened the door and came in.

"Hey, I'm eating right now."

"It's brother Xu Damao. Have you eaten?"

"Not yet. When I came over to take a look, I saw you two eating."

"Sister Mengjing, who is this little girl?"

"Her name is Yu Haitang, she is my colleague and the announcer of the steel rolling mill."

"Well, we are from the same factory. It's a pleasure to meet you. My name is Xu Damao, and I am a projectionist at the steel rolling mill."

Xu Damao stretched out his hand to shake Yu Haitang's hand with a playful smile. Yu Haitang only glanced at him and continued eating.

Seeing that she had no intention of shaking hands with him, Xu Damao had no choice but to smile awkwardly and retract his hand.

"Hey, stir-fried shredded pork with green pepper and stir-fried shredded pork with cabbage, they are both delicious dishes."

"Brother Xu Damao, have you eaten? If not, let's have some together."

"Then what's the point..."

"It's okay, just add a pair of chopsticks."

"Okay, I'll just go back and get something."

After saying that, Xu Damao left, not knowing what to get back.

"Mengjing, why do you let him eat? He doesn't look like a good person with his glib tongue."

"He helped me move things yesterday..."

"I'm a good person helping you move things, Mengjing, don't be too naive."
