Zhang Chengfei didn't want to say too much at first, but when he heard Jia Zhang's evasive words, his face suddenly darkened, "Aren't children ignorant and adults are also ignorant? Stop using these as excuses!"

After finishing speaking, he returned to the backyard.

The residents of the courtyard all spoke up when they saw him, and everyone started talking about it.

"Stealing needles when you are young, stealing gold when you grow up."

"Jia Zhang never cares about Bangge stealing things..."

"My house has been robbed several times. They belong to neighbors. I'm embarrassed to say..."

Mrs. Jia Zhang glared at the group of people, "No, what does it have to do with you? Why don't you go home and beat your children when you are so free? Why are you always talking about our family? It's so annoying!!"

After saying that, he turned around and went home without showing off.

On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Zhang Chengfei met with the other two families under the arrangement of Director Wang. After completing the procedures, the two wing rooms opposite the Yan family in the front yard of the courtyard were under Zhang Chengfei's name.

After exiting the street office, Old Chen said cheerfully to Zhang Chengfei, "Dachengzi, I will pack up my things and move them out overnight when I get back today. You can arrange to move in directly tomorrow."

Zhang Chengfei handed over a cigarette and smiled, "I'm not in such a hurry, uncle. Take your time."

Lao Chen also works in the steel rolling mill, but his presence in the courtyard is very low. He is the kind of person who disappears immediately if he is thrown into a crowd. Zhang Chengfei also found out today that the Chen family moved from the courtyard this time not for work, but for the 100 yuan subsidy from the family who wanted to work after changing houses.

After a casual chat, the two parties said goodbye.

There are no secrets in the courtyard, let alone such a big thing as moving. The old Chen family had just rolled up their bedrolls, and the whole yard knew that they were moving out.

Immediately, there were people from three floors inside and three floors outside, surrounding the door of their house.

Seeing Old Chen's wife carrying two chairs out, she immediately stepped forward and asked, "Aunt Chen, are you guys moving away now and not coming back?"

After getting a positive answer, immediately ask, "So, do you plan to sell this house, or what?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone else immediately stretched their ears and waited for Aunt Chen's reply.

Buying and selling real estate is not easy these days, but it is even more uncomfortable for a large family to be crowded into a small house, so at this time, many people are eyeing the Chen family's house. Everyone was thinking in their minds about how to negotiate with the Chen family before others, or what price to offer so that they could win the house without losing money.

Unexpectedly, before they had made their plans, Aunt Chen had already said, "We will move out today. The house has been sold to Dachengzi as a wedding room. We have completed the procedures and he will find someone to come tomorrow." furnish."

hiss? ? ? Already sold it? ? Everyone in the courtyard suddenly gasped.

No, the Chen family and Zhang Chengfei are too good at hiding their anger, right? Let everyone know after everything is done! ! !

Silly Zhu stood by and his teeth ached, "Dachengzi's family already has two rooms in the backyard, why do we need two more for this wedding?"

"I was afraid that I wouldn't have enough room to live in once I got married and had children, so I bought it first," said Aunt Chen.

The third aunt nodded, "That's the truth. Dachengzi has a plan in mind for whatever he does."

--Two rooms seem like a lot now, but wouldn't it be enough if you get married and have two or three children?

After hearing this, Silly Zhu's mind moved, "Then I have to think about getting a house. Although my house is the best in the courtyard, it won't be enough when I get married and have children."

The third aunt glanced at him and said nothing.

Xu Damao, who was watching the excitement on the side, sneered, "Silly Zhu, everyone in this courtyard has to think about the house, but you don't have to think about it at all!! This room right now is enough for you to live in for a lifetime without moving."

Although Si Zhu couldn't quite understand the implication of Xu Damao's words, he reflexively felt that what this guy said was not good, and he immediately raised his hand to hit him.

Xu Damao was so frightened that he hurriedly hid behind Xiao Fengxian, "Silly Zhu, grandson, a gentleman talks but never strikes!!"

Silly Zhu rolled up his sleeves, "Xu Damao, are you considered a man? You hide behind women's butts every day?"

Xu Damao stuck his head out, "It's none of your business that I'm hiding behind my wife! You're just jealous that I have a wife!!"

Xiao Fengxian also held out her belly and pointed straight at Silly Zhu, "Hit someone? Come on, hit them here!! Come on, come on, come on!!"

Silly Zhu had never seen such a tough woman before. He was so frightened that he turned around and wanted to run away, but somehow he stumbled with his left foot and his right foot, and fell down with a loud thud.

Everyone in the courtyard burst out laughing when they saw this, and an atmosphere of joy immediately filled the courtyard.

Early the next morning, while Zhang Chengfei was still sleeping in the bed, Grandma Zhang came over to lift the quilt and said, "There is no water in the house. Go get two buckets of water and come back."

Zhang Chengfei rubbed his sleepy eyes and said, "Sure, I'll go now."

He put on his clothes and got out of bed, carrying two empty iron buckets and walked to the faucet in the courtyard.

After the government made tap water universal in the late 50s, people in Forty-Nine Cities finally no longer had to rely on buying water to make a living. But the government only provides water pipes to the yard. If anyone wants to bring water into their homes, they have to pay separately.

Who is willing to spend more money these days? So basically every large courtyard and quadrangle share the same water pipe in the yard. Even if there are queues to wash faces, vegetables, and clothes during peak periods, and even if you have to carry water to your home every day, it is always better not to spend too much money.

While Zhang Chengfei was carrying two buckets of people back home, he was thinking about how to implement the water diversion into the house when decorating the house.

When I got home, I put the water in the kitchen. The old lady was still making dumplings today.

When Zhang Chengfei saw this, he immediately cried and said, "No, old lady, why are you still eating dumplings after this year is over?"

--From New Year's Eve to New Year's Day, he ate dumplings for six days. He felt like he was wrapped in a big dough. Why are he still eating them now?

When Grandma Zhang heard his ungrateful words, she immediately rolled her eyes at him, "You still dislike eating dumplings? Ask around the yard and find out how many years you haven't been able to eat such good meat dumplings on New Year's Eve!! You are not satisfied! !”

"You can't eat it all the time. I ate twenty dumplings in six days. Now I feel like I'm a dumpling."

"Isn't this too much? This meal will be gone after eating it!!" Grandma Zhang said angrily while scooping up dumplings.

After eating dumplings with a sad face, Zhang Chengfei rode his bicycle straight to the police station.

When I arrived at the place, I asked my colleagues if they knew any good house decorators.

Dalong, Pan Zi, and Section Chief Tian unanimously recommended a master named Wang Mantang.

"Wang Mantang? Never heard of it." Zhang Chengfei couldn't remember who this person was.

Section Chief Tian slapped his thigh, "You haven't heard of Wang Mantang, but you have heard of Longji, right?"

Longji?

Zhang Chengfei suddenly realized, who in Laosi Jiucheng doesn't know Long Ji! !

Section Chief Tian said, "Wang Mantang used to be Longji's apprentice. Later, because of his good craftsmanship, he was recruited by the old shopkeeper as his son-in-law and became the boss... Now Longji is state-owned, and Wang Mantang is in There is the manager there, and he and his workers are very good at what they do. In our Sijiu City, anyone who comes to them for renovating a house has to queue up."

Zhang Chengfei frowned when he heard what he said, "So angry? Then I must be too late."
