Siheyuan: Activate the farm system at the beginning

Chapter 28 Neighbors Intercepted on the Road

Most of the people living in the courtyard houses are old neighbors who have lived there for several years, more than ten years or even longer.

80% of the people living in this area are employees of the nearby Red Star Steel Rolling Mill.

Most people have more or less some understanding of the situation of each household.

"That's Li Changlin, right? He must have spent a lot of money carrying all those bags."

"It is true that if one person is full, the whole family will not be hungry. Without mountains of gold and silver, how dare we make such a thing?"

"Didn't I hear that Li Changlin has squandered all his family's wealth? How come he still has money to build it?"

"Who knows? Li Changlin's family used to have two employees. It's only been a few years. Maybe they still have some inventory."

It can be said that the neighbors nearby know very well the situation in Li Changlin's home.

The main reason is that Li Changlin's parents were both employees of the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill. In that era, there were relatively few families with two working parents, and they generally lived a very good life.

Moreover, when Li Changlin's parents had an accident at the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill, it caused a sensation and aroused a lot of discussion.

It is relatively easy to understand why Li Changlin, a young man who originally had a happy family, suddenly became an orphan.

Seeing Li Changlin carrying a lot of bags, everyone started talking about it.

The original owner, Li Changlin, grew up here and was very familiar with the neighbors around him.

Before his parents had an accident, Li Changlin was always regarded as a good child with excellent academic performance in the eyes of everyone and a role model of "other children" in the eyes of other parents.

But later, something happened to his parents, and without parental discipline, coupled with some people deliberately causing trouble, the original owner deviated from his original growth trajectory.

Li Changlin received the memories of the original owner, and these growing experiences were just like what he had experienced personally, so he was very familiar with them.

Along the way, Li Changlin was very polite and greeted all the neighbors one by one.

As long as they are not deliberately causing trouble for him, Li Changlin is very willing to maintain good relations with them.

We are all neighbors, we will see each other every day.

But there are some people who won't be happy even if you want to have a good relationship with them.

Li Changlin also has no habit of trying to please others by showing his affection for him.

After saying hello, Li Changlin quickly returned to the gate of the courtyard.

At the gate of the courtyard, Li Changlin unexpectedly discovered Yan Bugui.

Weren’t you a scalper in front of the grain store before?

Why did you go home so suddenly?

Isn’t this too much effort?

Yan Bugui was indeed a calculating man. In order to make some profit, he returned to the courtyard before the workers went home.

As I recall, whenever Yan Bugui had free time, he would stand guard at the gate of the courtyard, ostensibly to help the neighbors carry things, or to help with other things within his ability.

However, when Yan Bugui was helping, he would always take some small things back with him.

Even if other people knew about it, they wouldn't say much. After all, the things that were taken away were not very valuable.

Yan Bugui went out to the ghost market at around two o'clock in the morning to sell fine grain coupons, and then went to the grain store early in the morning to work as a scalper to buy grain coupons. He was busy all morning, and even when Li Changlin left, he was still working as a scalper. Unexpectedly, after just one afternoon of absence, Yan Bugui appeared on time at the gate of the courtyard again.

Li Changlin also sighed. Yan Bugui was really hardworking. To support a family by himself, there was really no other way without some skills.

Yan Bugui also saw Li Changlin, who was carrying a lot of bags, and almost immediately went to greet him with a smile.

"Changlin, you bought so many things. Let the Third Uncle help you carry them."

With so many things to eat, it should be okay to just take some soy sauce with you, right?

Yan Bugui was secretly delighted in his heart, soy sauce is a good thing, the family had run out of soy sauce for a while, without soy sauce, many dishes lacked flavor.

"Thank you, Uncle Third. Now that we're home, I can do it on my own."

Li Changlin dodged the hand extended by the third uncle and politely declined the other party's enthusiastic help.

"If you need help from Uncle San, just ask. After all, our two families live in the front yard, so we should help each other."

Yan Bugui showed a trace of regret on his face, but he said that they should help each other, as if he was not the one who wanted to take the opportunity to buy Li Changlin's house at a low price.

During the time when Li Changlin and Yan Bugui stayed and talked, the workers from the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill in Siheyuan also returned to Siheyuan.

When Jia Dongxu saw the supplies in Li Changlin's hands, he was filled with resentment. These were things he had bought with his own money, and they were all his stuff.

Jia Dongxu never thought about how much they could buy with the 50 yuan compensation.

Besides, the person who actually compensated Li Changlin 50 yuan was not Jia Dongxu, but Yi Zhonghai.

Like mother like son.

It is normal for Jia Zhangshi and Jia Dongxu to have such thoughts.

Originally, he thought that the matter would be over, but when Jia Dongxu saw Li Changlin, he couldn't help but sneer: "Oh, you take other people's money and spend it freely, and you are not afraid of retribution."

Originally, Li Changlin had not thought about communicating too much with them, but when he saw Jia Dongxu's offering face, he raised the things in his hand and said with a smile: "You know what, it's so refreshing to spend this money. If some people still want to give me money, I'm very happy.

My family still lacks a lot of things, and I'm worried that no one will come to share the burden with me."

"you……"

Jia Dongxu originally wanted to make some sarcastic remarks, but was choked by Li Changlin's words and was speechless.

But he didn't dare to make any move. Jia Dongxu knew what happened the day before yesterday. Li Changlin was not as weak as he looked. If he acted impulsively, he would probably make a fool of himself again.

Most of the residents of the courtyard knew what happened the day before yesterday. They knew that in order to occupy Li Changlin's house, Jia Zhang was afraid that someone else would take it first, so she actually moved her sewing machine over there in advance. However, she almost never came back. In the end, Li Changlin showed mercy and compensated her 50 yuan.

Liu Haizhong is the second uncle of the courtyard. He was not at the scene the day before yesterday, but he still knew what happened afterwards.

There was nothing wrong at first, but he knew that Li Changlin seemed to have spent all the 50 yuan that Jia Dongxu compensated him the day before yesterday.

The aroma of meat that filled the yard that night not only attracted the Jia family, but also attracted everyone in the entire courtyard.
