Stay away from beasts in the world of Siheyuan

Chapter 2: Division of the House, the Original Owner's Mother's Funeral

After hearing Liu Ruyi's explanation, Li Huaide understood.

There are many troubles for widows these days. It is really inconvenient for a woman to live alone without her children. So she thought for a while and said to Xu Changping:

“It is definitely against the rules to directly allocate a house to you, after all, you are not an employee of the factory.

However, the factory can give you a temporary residence, and when you have a job and a place to live in the future, you can return it.”

"Okay, thank you, thank you Director Li."

Although he was only allowed to stay temporarily, the property was still allocated to him so that he could register his residence, so Xu Changping was still very grateful.

You have to know that houses cannot be bought and sold at will in that era. If the factory does not provide housing, you can only rent one in the street where your household registration is located.

However, because Xu Changping's mother was assigned from another place, she was not eligible for a house when she first arrived, so she could only register Xu Changping's household registration under the name of the steel rolling mill.

Now that his mother has passed away, if the steel mill does not allocate him a house, then he will have nowhere to keep his household registration.

Li Huaide raised his left hand, looked at his watch and asked, "Can you get out of bed and walk around now?"

"Sure." Xu Changping replied quickly.

"Then come with me to the office. I'll finalize your house matters today, and then you can deal with your mother's funeral affairs with peace of mind."

Li Huaide glanced at Xu Changping's thin body, said nothing more, and turned to leave the infirmary.

Xu Changping threw back the quilt on his body, quickly stood up, put on his shoes, picked up the bag next to the pillow, and said to Liu Ruyi who was still beside him:

"Aunt Liu, I'll go over with Director Li first."

"Go quickly."

Liu Ruyi waved her hand indifferently and said.

After leaving the infirmary, Xu Changping saw Li Huaide waiting for him. He did not dare to delay and walked quickly to his side.

I followed him all the way to Li Huaide's office. When he sat down at his desk, he saw Xu Changping still standing at the door. He pointed at the chair opposite and said:

"Xiao Xu, please sit down."

Then, he took out an envelope from the drawer on the side of his desk, handed it to Xu Changping and said:

"This is the pension the factory gave you, and the letter of introduction for your succession. Take it and keep it safe."

Xu Changping took the envelope, opened it, took a casual look at it, and then put it into the bag he was carrying.

"Won't you count?"

Li Huaide looked at Xu Changping's actions and asked.

"No need, I believe Director Li would not lie to me."

Xu Changping raised his head, his eyes slightly red as he looked at Li Huaide with trust.

He knew that the money would not be small. After all, Li Huaide was the leader of the factory. He did this just to make Li Huaide have a better impression of him so that he would be more relaxed when looking for a house later.

When Li Huaide heard what Xu Changping said, although he didn't say anything, the expression on his face obviously softened a lot.

Then Xu Changping saw Li Huaide take out a file bag from the drawer below. When he opened it, there were papers with densely written forms inside.

Xu Changping took a glance and found that the front of the form contained information about the house, and the back contained accommodation conditions.

Li Huaide flipped through several pages and found a few blank pages behind the house information. He pointed at the blank pages and said:

"These houses were originally reserved for technicians assigned to the factory in the future, but your mother died in the line of duty, so I will make an exception and temporarily give you one, so that you can live in it until you get a house when you start working."

"Thank you, thank you Director Li, you took the trouble."

Xu Changping rubbed his eyes quietly until they turned red, and thanked Li Huaide repeatedly with gratitude.

Li Huaide glanced at Xu Changping, then looked at the house information in his hand.

Thinking that Xu Changping was currently attending a technical secondary school, if he was assigned to a steel mill after graduation, he would not have to pay back the house that was assigned to him now, so he pointed to a house that was suitable for him and said:

"This is it. It's in a courtyard house with three entrances and four courtyards in Nanluoguxiang. There are many workers from the steel mill living in this courtyard. They can take care of you in the future."

"There is still one wing room and one ear room left in the east wing, so I'll give them to you."

When Xu Changping heard that he was given a wing room and an ear room, he was delighted and grateful. With red eyes, he quickly bowed and thanked:

"Thank you, thank you Director Li for your care."

Hearing Xu Changping's thanks, Li Huaide waved his hand and filled in Xu Changping's information behind the two rooms with a pen.

After doing all this, Li Huaide took the document from the steel mill, filled in the house information, signed it, tore it off and handed it to Xu Changping, saying:

"When you're done, go find Xiao Zhou next door, give him this thing, and ask him to take you to the street office in Nanluoguxiang to complete the house formalities."

After leaving Li Huaide's office, Xu Changping found the place where his original mother was buried based on his memory.

Seeing the body covered with white cloth, Xu Changping's legs went weak and he knelt on the ground, tears streaming down his face uncontrollably. He knew that these were the emotions left in his body by his original incarnation, and he didn't try to suppress them.

"You must be Accountant Fang's son, right?"

Just when Xu Changping was caught up in the emotions of his original body and couldn't help crying, a middle-aged man's voice sounded behind him.

"Yes, thank you for helping me look after my mother."

Xu Changping suppressed his emotions and spoke with some sobs.

"Hey, it's okay. Accountant Fang is usually a nice person."

Xu Changping, who had cried enough, looked at the current situation and felt a little at a loss.

"What are you going to do about your mother's funeral?"

Seeing that he had cried enough and was kneeling there straight, the middle-aged man's eyelids jumped violently, and he walked to him and asked in a low voice.

He had to ask, because this was a steel mill, not a place where he could rest.

"I....."

Xu Changping was speechless for a moment. Not to mention that the original owner had no experience in handling funeral affairs, he had never handled one even in modern times. He could only ask:

"Do you know where there are people who hold funerals around here?"

"There's an old man in Maoer Hutong who specializes in helping people with funerals."

Seeing Xu Changping at a loss and in trouble, the middle-aged man gave him some advice.

"Uncle, I'm not familiar with this place, and I don't know where Maoer Hutong is."

Xu Changping said with some embarrassment.

After saying this, he felt around his body, took out two dollars, stuffed them into the other person's hand, and said:

"Could you please help me make this trip? I'll consider this as buying you cigarettes."

The middle-aged man knew that when something like this happened, the factory would hope to resolve the matter quickly. It seemed that if he didn't help, the matter would not be resolved today, so he simply replied:

"Okay, you wait here."
