Break out of the courtyard

Do the Zhang family want to buy a house?

Of course that’s what I wanted!

After Zhang Heping took a dozen pieces of paper with sales information, he ran to the street office and put the paper in front of Director Wang.

"Aunt Wang, this is the house sales information collected by Yi Zhonghai and others. Today, an outsider handed it to my grandma. She wants our family to buy a house and leave, hehe!"

As Zhang Heping said this, he found a water bottle and an empty cup, first added some water to Director Wang's tea cup, and then poured it for himself.

Director Wang looked at a few pictures at random and asked, "Do you have any ideas again?"

"Hey!" Zhang Heping put down the water glass, leaned over and asked softly: "Aunt Wang, if I buy all these houses, can I exchange them for a larger courtyard house with you?"

"I knew you brat had a wrong idea again!" Director Wang tore up the pile of notes and said angrily: "Think about it first, why are there so many courtyard houses under the name of the subdistrict office?"

"Also, Lao Qi told me that you want to change the door of No. 7 Courtyard. Let me remind you again, don't show off!"

"Read your book carefully, get a job, and then live in Xicheng. Don't get involved with those remnants of the old capital."

When Director Wang said this, Zhang Heping suddenly woke up. The houses in the street offices were acquired from local tyrants, divided into large households, and publicized!

And Zhang Heping himself is leading the Zhang family into the abyss of local tyranny...the opposite of the masses!

If the situation changes suddenly, his family may be attacked by a group of people!

Snapped!

Zhang Heping suddenly slapped himself, which made Director Wang a little stunned.

"Thank you Aunt Wang for reminding me!" Zhang Heping drank a glass of water, wiped his mouth with his right sleeve, and said with a smile: "I still have some furs at home, and my dad is learning to make fur boots and leather shoes."

"If Aunt Wang doesn't mind my father's poor craftsmanship, our family can make fur shoes and give them to the families of military martyrs in need."

"You brat, you just told me about the house, but now you're trying to pull my shoes." Director Wang took a sip of tea with a smile, then stretched out his feet to step on Heping's black snow boots under the table, and said with a smile:

"Some people have been jealous and reported your fur boots for a long time. Since you are willing to donate them, it shows that you have a more comprehensive view of the matter."

"As I say again, don't show off! You are still young. In the future, when you go to college or get promoted, people will do public opinion surveys on you."

……

After being educated by Director Wang, Zhang Heping returned home and asked his father Zhang Bing about the progress of making tactical boots, and learned that there were only two pairs left to complete the order of 23 pairs of boots.

Immediately, Zhang Heping told his family about someone reporting their furs, and said that he would make the remaining furs into shoes and donate them to the families of military martyrs in need on the streets.

My father Zhang Bing was very supportive of this, but my grandmother and two sisters were very angry. They didn't even wear fur boots!

The next day, October 2th.

In the morning, Zhang Heping reported to Director Wang the estimated number of pairs of furs his family could make from his remaining furs, and made an application for some accessories, such as scrap tires, shoe repair glue, etc.

Then, he went to Houhai to find the street construction team to discuss the renovation of No. 7 Courtyard without raising its front door.

At noon, Zhang Heping got the photos taken on the first day of the Lunar New Year. On the way back, he happened to see his mother Ma Xiuzhen and his eldest cousin Ma Lili carrying two baskets of mountain goods. He gave them the photos in his hand and used his bicycle to carry all the mountain goods. Come on, let's go home together.

In the afternoon, Zhang Heping took the money, paper and pen, and two bags of stick noodles totaling 80 kilograms, and pedaled to the small courtyard No. 7 on the north bank of Houhai to talk to the construction team about the specific repair and renovation plans, as well as the cost of labor and materials, etc. wait.

On the 2nd, Zhang Heping was on the ice of Houhai outside the No. 7 courtyard, fishing in the ice hole and working as a supervisor.

When Zhang Heping left, he gave all the fish he caught to the construction workers, causing them to work overtime until ten o'clock with great enthusiasm.

On the afternoon of the 3rd, Zhang Heping came home from his job as a supervisor and beat up his second cousin Zhang Cuiya who dared to come to his house. He also asked his first cousin Zhang Cuishan to take his mother and second son to get a haircut, take a bath, and finally entertained him with a dinner. .

On the 4th, Zhang Heping didn't think anything about it at noon. After passing the foot-long piece of data given to him by the street clerk to Lao Zhang, he went to supervise the work.

However, during dinner in the evening, Zhang Heping's expression turned bad.

"When did Auntie leave? Why is Zhang Erwa still here?" Zhang Heping asked indifferently.

As soon as these words came out, the room suddenly became silent. Zhang Cuiya, who was eating steamed buns... choked!

After a while, Zhang Bing coughed unnaturally and said, "I asked him to stay and learn to mend shoes with me."

Zhang Heping destroyed the last steamed bun in his basin, picked up the water glass, stared at his father Zhang Bing, and asked emotionally: "In other words, you have to provide money and food to support him, right?"

"Sanwazi, third uncle is joking, my brother will go back to his hometown tomorrow!" The first cousin Zhang Cuishan wanted to take the second brother Zhang Cuiya away, but Zhang Cuiya shook his hand away.

"I won't go back!" Zhang Cuiya shook off his elder brother's hand, ran to stand behind Zhang Bing, and said loudly to Zhang Cuishan: "Why can you stay in the city as a worker, I will go back to be a farmer!"

"Think slowly!" Zhang Heping stood up, went to clean Xu Damao's sewing machine, took off the runner belt, put the machine head and belt into the belly of the table, then picked up a rabbit trunk and gave the sewing machine to the Xu family Sent back.

After Zhang Heping came back, he asked Zhang Bing again if he wanted to raise Zhang Cuiya, but he still didn't get a reply. In front of everyone, he pried open the blue bricks where the money was hidden in three places, and took away the three glass jars where the money was stored. come out.

Zhang Heping walked to the kang, opened the secret compartment under the radio, and collected the household registration book, grain book, non-staple food book, as well as pocket money stamps and meal stamps.

Before going out, Zhang Heping turned around and glanced at Zhang Bing, "You have one night to think about it. If you insist on keeping that thief by your side, we will separate our families!"

After finishing speaking, Zhang Heping went straight back to the right room and started packing his things.

The courtyard at No. 7 will almost be completed tomorrow!

Because it was winter in the capital, it was too cold to break ground, and cement could not be used. After repairing the roof and replacing some rotten wood, the construction team spent more time on modifying the glass doors and windows, and painting.

Tomorrow, after the construction team dismantles the original stove and adds a touch of paint to the doors and windows, they can leave.

As for the renovation of the back room, we have to wait until spring comes.

If you want to drive Zhang Cuiya away, it is actually quite easy to solve it. Just remove his bones and jaw and throw them out the door. If it doesn't work once, then come here every day to see if he can hold on.

However, Zhang Heping chose the most radical approach.

First, Zhang Bing was given eye drops and Zhang Cuiya was kept without the consent of the head of the family, Zhang Xiaosan. This was a sign of rebellion.

Second, he happened to use Zhang Cuiya as an excuse to move out of here and go to Courtyard No. 7 to do interior decoration and make wooden furniture.

After all, it is your own house, so you must consider sturdy and durable wooden furniture.

The third is to consider the east wing and the two wing rooms next door.

Their family is really going to move to Courtyard No. 7. The cousin Zhang Cuisheng can rent the east wing at most, but the two wing rooms next door will be given up.

Once something like that happens, I'm afraid Yi Zhonghai and the others will be so happy that they light firecrackers to celebrate!

"Xiao San, can mom say a few words to you?" Mother Ma Xiuzhen entered the right room worriedly.

Half an hour later, Ma Xiuzhen, carrying her fantasy about her new home and her trust in her son, went to the east wing with her eyebrows raised and scolded Zhang Bing loudly, attracting many people in the courtyard to watch.

In the end, Ma Xiuzhen took her three daughters to collect their clothes and sleeping bags and live separately!

If Zhang Heping learned that his mother, Ma Xiuzhen, had this fantasy about her small courtyard, that's why she scolded Zhang Bing so badly.

emmm... If he knew, he would probably go and persuade his mother, lest she be disappointed when she sees No. 7 Courtyard tomorrow, fix him!

Because Ma Xiuzhen only guessed the small door on the right...
