A thick blanket of snow covered the roof of the courtyard, its light illuminating the sky even before the dawn.
Bu Xiang Dong, his thin face full of energy, stepped on the icy shards, his breath forming frosty plumes in the air.
The times were calling.
The next second, a display of national essence.
“Damn it!”
Bu Xiang Dong saw in front of a courtyard gate on Dongzhimen Outer Street –
Several people were carrying large buckets, their necks tucked in, feet stomping on the ground, their breath steaming in the cold.
There were too many people, he couldn’t make his move even if he wanted to.
Not all courtyards had piped water.
Some needed to fetch water from outside, and with the freezing temperatures, fetching water was quite difficult.
“Bu Xiang Dong, if you want to show off, you should have come earlier. Are you already thinking about women just after becoming an adult?”
“Screw you!”
“My sister is out of your reach, but let me tell you, widows have three good qualities: gentle, kind, and insatiable!”
Xu Damao, when talking about widows, would wink and talk nonsense.
“Have you tried it?”
“Cough cough!”
Xu Damao looked around, “My dad and I went to the countryside to show movies…damn it, you wouldn't be trying to get information out of me to report me, would you? Bu Xiang Dong, you're a ruthless one.
“……”
“Bu Xiang Dong, to be honest, I haven't bullied you. It was Yi Zhong Hai who schemed against you, and Sha Zhu who bullied you. We have a common enemy.”
If it were before, Xu Damao wouldn't have said this.
Bu Xiang Dong was just a nobody, he didn't even care about him.
But ever since half a month ago, his words and actions have become more aggressive.
It seemed Bu Xiang Dong was about to start working at the factory, he was no longer pretending and was revealing his true colors.
“He he, how did the countryside taste?”
“Hey hey, you come fetch water earlier tomorrow.”
This was the third day in a row that Xu Damao had gotten up early to fetch water.
The reason was that Wang Dazhu, a neighbor, had passed away, leaving his newly married wife alone.
Without in-laws, only a daughter, she was quite lonely.
Helping the young widow fetch water became a trend in Nanluogu Xiang.
..................
Lusting for beauty?
Not only that.
She has a house, a job, a pension, and a daughter.
If he could marry the young widow, he would reach the peak of his life.
Bu Xiang Dong saw the men talking in vulgar terms and stopped in his tracks.
His goal was different from Xu Damao's.
He had transmigrated, into the era of the television show “Love in Siheyuan”.
Coincidentally, he lived in the No. 95 courtyard.
Here lived the master thief, Bang Geng, the fighting god of Siheyuan, He Yu Zhu.
The moral patriarch, Yi Zhong Hai, the necromancer, Jia Zhangshi, and other famous people.
The original owner was a nobody, to be more precise, he was a target of schemes.
Five years ago, his parents died in an accident, at a young age he had to struggle to survive.
To his surprise, he had two little partners.
A skinny one named Hu Ba Yi.
A fat one named Wang Kaisuan.
The trio ran errands in the black market, took odd jobs from the street office, also went into the mountains to forage and fish.
Finally, he reached the age when he could take over his father's job at the factory.
But he still had to be careful to deal with the beasts in the courtyard, his job was being targeted, his house was being targeted.
Fortunately, according to the rules of transmigrators, he had a cheat code.
Bu Xiang Dong had a system that triggered when he stirred up trouble, successful instigation would reward him with a random lucky bag.
But instigating trouble was not easy.
This kind of thing required an opportunity, it required tireless research.
Bu Xiang Dong had been transmigrated for half a month.
He had spent a lot of time pondering how to stir up trouble.
In this courtyard full of wicked people, it was still not easy for a newcomer.
Hearing that a new widow had emerged on Dongzhimen Outer Street, causing a big stir.
Where there's a widow, there's trouble.
Naturally, he would take a chance.
...................
After waiting for a while, a chubby young man came running.
It was none other than Wang Kaisuan, one of Bu Xiang Dong's partners.
“Brother Dong, is this the good thing you were talking about?”
“This is a beautiful widow, doesn’t that count as a good thing?”
Wang Fatzi: “Brother Dong, does the widow provide food?”
“Fatso, just breathe in some northwest wind. Be thankful for the gifts of nature!”
“A whole morning wasted? Brother Dong, you’ve changed, you actually want to do good deeds, who the hell does good deeds, you know?”
Bu Xiang Dong’s face twitched, “Where’s Big Hu (Hu Ba Yi)?”
“His grandpa told him, no nuns, widows, or prostitutes. And said today is an unlucky day for anything.”
“……”
“Haha, Bu Xiang Dong, you two actually want to help the widow fetch water, have your pubes grown yet.”
“Yeah, take a look at yourselves, what kind of quality are you? Do you also want to help the widow?”
“That’s right, just go to the factory and work, support yourself, then think about women.”
Bu Xiang Dong’s lips curled, “There’s only one beautiful widow, we can’t all take a look together, there’s an old saying: whoever strikes first, wins!”
Those who had been nagging just now immediately became wary of each other.
【Host has successfully instigated trouble, the system is rewarding you!】
The system rewards a lucky bag!
Bu Xiang Dong opened the bag.
【Ding, congratulations, host, you have obtained one hundred pounds of potatoes!】
【Default option, items stored in system space!】
These past half a month, he had done a few things.
The lucky bags he received were mostly material items.
“Let’s go!”
Wang Fatzi took a deep breath, “Brother Dong, we’re not really going to fetch water, are we? You want the widow to feed you milk?”
“……”
