Siheyuan: Starting from 1952

Xiaoshitan Village is named after the pond in the village.

The water in the pond is particularly cold in summer, which can be regarded as a feature of this place.

The Red Star Steel Rolling Mill branch located in Xiaoshitan Village is more like a workshop than a branch.

The factory manager’s surname is Qin, and he’s from this village.

Director Qin warmly received Lu Juemin and other expatriates.

After introducing the work that needed to be done, Director Qin said somewhat embarrassedly: "Comrades, because our factory is too small, we really can't spare so many dormitories, so we need you to stay in the homes of fellow villagers."

"But don't worry, the cost of staying at the fellow villager's home will be borne by the factory!"

Living in a fellow villager’s home?

Lu Juemin had no objection to this, as he didn't have high requirements for housing.

After all, when I was fleeing the famine with Chen Xingyao, I slept in the wild every day.

As for the others.

At this moment, criticism has already been heard.

These employees are different from Lu Juemin. Most of them are city children and grew up in the city.

There is no chance to live in someone else's house.

But there is no way. Since I am here, if I don’t want to stay at my fellow villager’s house, I can only use the sky as my blanket and the ground as my bed.

So next, Director Qin took a group of people to the village to choose a house.

The conditions of the fellow villagers' homes vary, and some "smart" people naturally grab the better ones immediately.

Jia Dongxu moved very quickly and moved into a fellow villager's home which had three tiled houses.

After making the selection, he even mocked Lu Juemin, "Mr. Lu, you better hurry up, or you'll have to sleep in the cowshed!"

"Oh!"

Lu Juemin just thought that Jia Dongxu was an idiot.

He is actually also choosing a house.

However, his criteria for choosing a house are completely different from others.

Because the main reason for agreeing to be sent abroad was that he wanted to come here to hunt.

So he hopes to find a house near the mountains.

This makes it easier for him to go up the mountain.

Gradually, everyone chose their own house, and in the end only Lu Juemin was left.

At this time, Director Qin stopped and said to Lu Juemin: "Comrade, how about we go to the other side of the village to take a look?"

"why?"

"Going further in, there is only one household living here, and the living conditions of this household are particularly bad. You probably won't like them." Director Qin explained.

"It's okay, I'll choose this one!"

Lu Juemin responded.

"Just this one?" Director Qin was a little surprised. "Comrade... this family's conditions are really poor... are you... are you sure?"

"Sure!"

It's more than certain, it's absolutely certain.

The place they are currently at is the entrance to the mountain. If they go further inside, wouldn’t they be inside the mountain?

This kind of house is tailor-made for you!

Seeing that Lu Juemin was so insistent, Director Qin didn't say anything more.

He continued to lead Lu Juemin inside.

After walking about another hundred meters, Lu Juemin finally saw the family with poor living conditions that Director Qin mentioned.

It's indeed a bit bad.

Just two small looking huts.

Houses like this would probably be used to feed chickens in later generations.

"Comrade, please wait here for a moment. I will go and negotiate with the owner of the house!" Director Qin said again.

"Good!"

Lu Juemin nodded, then shifted his gaze away from the hut and began to observe the surrounding situation.

He planned to find an easy way up the mountain and go hunting tonight!

……

cottage.

Director Qin stood in front of a bed, listening to the man lying on the bed talking.

"Brother Qin, why don't we just forget it? Although I am very tempted by the housing subsidy you offer, we really don't have any space for others to live in our house!"

"Ugh……"

Upon hearing this, Director Qin sighed and said, "In that case, I will go talk to the comrade from the city and ask him to find another place to stay."

Having said that, Director Qin turned around and prepared to leave the hut.

"Wait a moment"

But at this moment, a figure stopped Director Qin, "Second Uncle, go call that man over, I'll make room for him!"

"You want to give him room?" Director Qin was stunned. "Huai Ru, do you want to let that comrade live in your room?"

"Yup!"

"Then where do you live?"

"Me? I'll just live in the yard outside."

"How can this be possible!" Director Qin was a little worried. "You are a girl, how can you sleep outdoors? Huairu, I know you want to get some housing expenses and treat your father's injuries, but..."

"It's okay, Uncle! I can really do it!" Qin Huairu said without minding.

"you……"

Director Qin paused, moved his eyes to the man on the bed, and asked, "Qin Donghui, your daughter wants to sleep in the courtyard, what do you think?"

"I……"

Qin Donghui was about to speak when he was interrupted by Qin Huairu: "Second Uncle, don't worry about what my father thinks, just listen to me!"

"Well... okay, then I'll go call that comrade over."

Seeing that Qin Huairu was so persistent, Director Qin didn't say anything more.

Then he turned around and left the hut.

After Director Qin left, Qin Donghui looked at Qin Huairu with tears in his eyes and said, "My daughter... it's all Dad's fault. If Dad hadn't been injured, you wouldn't have suffered this grievance..."

"It's okay, Dad!"

Qin Huairu smiled and said, "As long as your injury can be healed, it is more important than anything else!"

……

Director Qin returned to Lu Juemin and said to him, "Comrade, I have already negotiated with the landlord. You can move in now!"

"I have something else to do, so I'll leave first!"

After watching Director Qin leave, Lu Juemin walked towards the thatched cottage.

but.

After walking a few steps, he stopped.

Because he saw a figure appear in the courtyard of the thatched cottage.

No way?

Qin Huairu?

He rubbed his eyes in disbelief.

He stared at the figure carefully again and again.

is her!

It's indeed her!

Her face is more childish than Qin Huairu in the TV series, but the face shape is exactly the same.

There is a youthful aura all over her body.

It’s time to say it or not.

Qin Huairu is really beautiful at this age!

You know, when Qin Huairu appeared in the TV series, she was already a mother of three children, and she still maintained a good appearance.

Not to mention that she is a dozen years younger than in the TV series!

Lu Juemin was very puzzled. Why was she here?

Could it be that... this Xiaoshitan Village is the village where Qin Huairu lives?

Lu Juemin was almost unable to move.

The woman Qin Huairu was famous in later generations as the "white lotus" and "blood-sucking".

In the novel "Silly Zhu".

He Yuzhu was even killed under the bridge.

So now... should I stay here or not?
