Siheyuan: Yan Jiekuang's carefree life

After Yan Jiekuang heard what Gao Junsong said, he knew where the homestead of the educated youths was. Yan Jiekuang asked, "Captain, after our house is built, can we dig a well in the yard?"

Gao Junsong replied: "Of course! It costs about 15 yuan to dig a well here, and about 20 yuan for a better one."

As soon as Gao Junsong finished speaking, the educated youth began to discuss. After a while, Tian Dazhuang said, "Building a house is a big deal. It can't be rushed. You should think about it carefully." Then he said to Gong Liang, "Gong, the next batch of educated youth will come in three days."

"I understand!" Gong Liang replied, and after watching Gao Junsong and the other two leave, he said, "Everyone should go back! Take some time to rest, as we still have to work in the afternoon."

After hearing what Gong Liang said, the educated youths stopped staying in the front yard and went back to their own rooms. Yan Jiekuang returned to the room and just sat down when Su Zihui walked in. Su Zihui asked, "Are you really planning to move out and live alone?!"

Yan Jiekuang nodded and said, "Our educated youth camp is a large compound in the old city. There are many people and many things to do. If you want to eat something delicious, the smell will spread out as soon as it is cooked. Isn't this offending people?! I don't want to hide my food in the future."

Su Zihui said: "If you move out, I will move out too. We have agreed to build the house together. I will rely on you from now on!"

Yan Jiekuang asked again: "Are you really not afraid of people gossiping outside?!"

Su Zihui said: "We eat together every day now. Don't people gossip about us enough?!"

"Okay! Since you've made up your mind, let's go find the captain and the others to handle the formalities!" Yan Jiekuang stood up and was about to go out. Su Zihui hurriedly asked, "Are you not going to eat?!"

Yan Jiekuang replied, "No! I'll come back and heat it up after I finish my work."

Su Zihui stopped eating and went back to her room to get some money, then followed Yan Jiekuang out of the educated youth camp. Soon Yan Jiekuang and Su Zihui arrived at the brigade headquarters.

"Captain, we are here!" Yan Jiekuang said as he walked into the office. Gao Junsong smiled and joked, "I knew you two would come."

Su Zihui said: "Captain Uncle, can our houses be built together?!"

When Gao Junsong and the other two heard Su Zihui's question, the smiles on their faces immediately disappeared. Tian Dazhuang said, "Su Zhiqing, what is your relationship? Why do you want to build the house together?!"

Su Zihui glanced at Yan Jiekuang secretly and said, "He is my boyfriend."

Tian Dazhuang and Gao Junsong looked at each other, then looked at Yan Jiekuang and asked, "Are you two really together?!"

Yan Jiekuang hesitated for a few seconds and replied, "Yes!"

When Su Zihui heard Yan Jiekuang say the word "in love", she felt an inexplicable joy in her heart, and her cheeks turned red unconsciously. But Su Zihui was very nervous, because she didn't know what Yan Jiekuang really thought. She thought that Yan Jiekuang's words just now were just to deal with Tian Dazhuang and others. At this time, Gao Junsong's questioning voice rang again: "Are you really in a relationship?! Yan Zhiqing, this is a very serious question!"

Yan Jiekuang replied: "Uncle Captain, how can you joke about this? I am serious!"

In fact, Yan Jiekuang has been thinking about the relationship between him and Su Zihui during this period. If Yan Jiekuang was blackmailed by Su Zihui at the beginning, they both got what they wanted. But after getting along for a period of time. Yan Jiekuang thinks it would be a good thing to marry Su Zihui home. Although Yan Jiekuang's parents are not as good as Su Zihui's parents, as a time traveler, Yan Jiekuang feels that he is not bad at all. When the storm passes, Yan Jiekuang believes that he will definitely become a first-generation rich with his own ability. Others rely on their fathers and relationships, but this time, Yan Jiekuang wants to rely on himself.

Gao Junsong, Tian Dazhuang and Wu Haiwang chatted in whispers for a while, and Gao Junsong said, "Since you are dating, we agree that you can build your houses together. But I'll be frank with you, if you build your two houses together, don't do anything messy. Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless. Also, Yan Jiekuang, you should be careful too! Don't think that you can bully Su Zhiqing just because her home is far away. If we find out that she has been wronged by you, we'll see how we deal with you!"

Tian Dazhuang rolled his eyes at Gao Junsong and asked, "What kind of house are you two planning to build?!"

Yan Jiekuang replied: "Secretary, I want to do it in one go. Let's build a brick house directly. There are only two of us, so let's build three rooms and a kitchen."

Wu Haiwang asked: "There are only two of you, why are you building three rooms?!"

Yan Jiekuang replied: "What if my parents or Su Zhiqing's family comes over?! They come from far away, we can't let them leave the same day they come, right?!"

"You are quite thoughtful, kid?" Tian Dazhuang muttered, and said, "Okay! You pay a hundred dollars first. We will pay more or less when the time comes."

"Okay!" Yan Jiekuang readily took out ten Great Unity notes and handed them to Wu Haiwang.

Wu Haiwang took the money, counted it, and then wrote a receipt to Yan Jiekuang. Gao Junsong said, "Let's go! I'll take you to see the place."

Northeast China is a vast country with few people. Even if they are neighbors, their families are at least 100 meters apart. The homestead that Gao Junsong and Tian Dazhuang arranged for the educated youth is located in the northwest of the village. Although the place is not very remote, it is at least 500 to 600 meters away from the nearest family.

When they got there, Gao Junsong pointed at the ground in front of him and said, "This is it. Do you like it?!"

Yan Jiekuang looked at the place and said, "Uncle Captain, let's go here!"

Tian Dazhuang said, "Okay! Since you have chosen the place, I will find someone to lay the foundation tomorrow. You are educated youth, so the housing plot will not be very large. According to the regulations, each of you can only have one and a half mu of land. Today I will make the decision and give you three and a half mu of land. I will give you half a mu of land more. You will live in a more spacious place."

"Thank you, Secretary!" Yan Jiekuang took out two packs of Caidie cigarettes from his pocket, gave one pack to Gao Junsong and Tian Dazhuang, and said, "I'll trouble you two with the rest."

"Don't worry about this!" After saying that, Gao Junsong pulled Tian Dazhuang away.

After the two left, Su Zihui grabbed Yan Jiekuang and asked, "Is what you just said in the office true?!"

Yan Jiekuang asked back: "Do you hope it's true?!"

Su Zihui said seriously: "I'm asking you!"

Yan Jiekuang said, "In the beginning, you blackmailed me. But as we get along, I feel that our friendship can be further sublimated." Then Yan Jiekuang cleared his throat, took Su Zihui's hand, looked at Su Zihui seriously, and asked, "Comrade Su Zihui, I am asking you seriously now! Are you willing to date me?!"

Su Zihui, whose heart was already beating like a deer, blushed as if she was drunk when she heard Yan Jiekuang's question. She replied shyly, "Yes!" Then she turned around and ran away. Seeing this, Yan Jiekuang immediately chased after her. Not long after, Yan Jiekuang caught up with Su Zihui, and the two walked side by side to the educated youth point.
