Looking at the two people, one adult and one child, sitting on the sofa in the main room, Xu Changping's face, which had been expressionless just now, instantly turned into a smile.

Yang Xiaoyue looked at Xu Changping, who came in and stood at the door with a silly smile on his face. Just as she was about to say something, Xiao Mi beside her shouted happily and flew over.

"Candy brother."

"Hey, hey, little princess, I haven't changed my clothes yet, please stay away from me."

Xu Changping quickly dodged Xiao Mi's action.

Xiao Mi was so angry at Xu Changping's actions that she stomped her feet on the spot, turned around and ran back to the sofa angrily.

Seeing this, Xu Changping was not angry. He turned around and went into the kitchen with the bag in his hand.

"Hahaha..."

Yang Xiaoyue was amused by the two people's actions and laughed out loud, but as a result, she received a warning look from Xiao Mi.

She forced herself to put away her smile, and when she saw what Xu Changping was holding, she immediately put down the book in her hand and followed him to the kitchen.

Thinking of the noise she had just vaguely heard, she reached out to take the things from Xu Changping's hand and said with concern:

"Who were you arguing with outside just now?"

"Nothing, a person who can't see himself clearly."

Xu Changping replied nonchalantly, not even bothering to mention Jia Zhang or what she had just done.

Yang Xiaoyue glanced at him without asking any further questions. She held the slightly heavy bag in her hand and asked:

"What are you buying?"

"It's just some meat and some vegetables. It's almost Chinese New Year."

"Let me clean up. You've been tired all day. Go and take a rest."

While taking things out of the bag, Yang Xiaoyue shouted to drive Xu Changping out of the kitchen.

"Hey, I'll go clean it up then."

Seeing this, Xu Changping didn't bother to be polite with Yang Xiaoyue and went straight into the bathroom to wash up.

Not long after, Xu Changping changed his clothes and walked out of the bedroom.

Looking at Yang Xiaoyue who was still busy in the kitchen, he walked over quickly and asked with a smile:

"Is there anything I can do?"

"Take this meat outside and freeze it in the tank."

Yang Xiaoyue pointed at the meat she had cut and wrapped and said with a smile.

"I'll go right away." After saying that, Xu Changping took a few bags of meat in his hand and went out.

The winters in the old city in the 1960s were still very cold, so people usually just stored things outside to freeze them.

This jar of frozen meat in the yard was specially bought by Xu Changping in the system when it just snowed, and it was placed in a relatively secluded corner of the yard.

After removing the debris covering the jar, Xu Changping opened the lid and put the meat in place one by one.

After doing all this, he replaced the tank cover and piled the debris on top, then clapped his hands and went back into the house.

After entering the room, seeing Xiao Mi still sulking on the sofa, Xu Changping walked over and picked her up.

"Hmph!" Xiao Mi's mouth just started to grin, but suddenly she remembered that she was still angry with Xu Changping, so she turned her head away and didn't look at him.

Xu Changping looked at her cute appearance and said with a smile:

"Good girl, don't be angry with me. I'm here to apologize to you."

"Then will you hide again next time?" Xiao Mi's anger only lasted for a second, and she stared at Xu Changping with watery eyes.

"I was very dirty when I first got home." Xu Changping did not ask whether to hide or not, but directly pointed out the core of the incident.

"Then I will wait for you to change your clothes next time." Xiao Mi also felt that she was a little wrong for being angry, so she spoke up quickly.

"Then let's make a pinky promise." Xu Changping smiled and stretched out a little finger, bending it towards Xiao Mi.

"Okay, it's a deal." Xiao Mi also stretched out her little finger and made a pinky promise with Xu Changping with a serious face.

"Okay, Xiao Mi, your brother Xu has been tired after a whole day, so get off him and eat." Yang Xiaoyue spoke up immediately when she saw that they had reconciled.

Xu Changping smiled and lifted up Xiao Mi who was about to slide off him, then carried her directly to the chair next to the dining table.

Seeing this, Yang Xiaoyue didn't say anything else. She shook her head and turned into the kitchen to get the remaining dishes.

Xu Changping took two steps across the distance between the kitchen and the dining table, reached out to take the things in Yang Xiaoyue's hand, and put them on the dining table.

After the meal, when they were sitting on the sofa drinking digestive tea, Xu Changping suddenly said to Yang Xiaoyue: "You will be eighteen after the Chinese New Year. I will transfer your household registration to this place."

"How do we move? Will the subdistrict office agree?"

Yang Xiaoyue sat up straight and looked at Xu Changping with a puzzled look.

Ever since the house in Jiangjun Hutong was taken back by the coal preparation plant, the Yang sisters have been registered with the street office there because they have no house.

"I will transfer the house next door to you." Xu Changping also spent a lot of time thinking about it. It is not a good thing for one person to have two houses under his name these days.

Although Yang Xiaoyue and her sister live there now, when they get married in the future, the house next door will be nominally empty.

"That's not a good idea. That's your house." Yang Xiaoyue hesitated. She didn't understand why Xu Changping suddenly came up with such an idea.

"What do you mean by yours and mine? Won't they all be yours when you get married in the future?" Xu Changping was good at talking. He made Yang Xiaoyue blush with just one sentence.

"But..." Xu Changping interrupted Yang Xiaoyue and said, "No buts. I will take you to the Housing Authority tomorrow."

Seeing Xu Changping was so determined, Yang Xiaoyue didn't say anything else and asked, "Okay, but do you remember that I wanted to buy a house for Xiao Mi?"

"Why don't I remember? It's just that I just haven't found a suitable house." Xu Changping glanced at Xiao Mi, sighed and replied.

It is really hard to buy a house in this city, especially during this period. After all, there are very few houses with independent property rights like the one next door to him.

"Then just keep an eye on her." Yang Xiaoyue didn't push her too hard. After all, she had looked for a house herself and knew how difficult it was to find one.

"That's for sure." Xu Changping almost patted his chest to assure Yang Xiaoyue.

After talking about the house, Xu Changping talked about Yang Xiaoyue's attendance at an accounting training class a year later.

"Study hard in this accounting training class. Once you graduate, you can go to work in the factory."

"I know, it's Xiao Mi."

"I'll watch over Xiao Mi at night. I was the one who watched over her before. Why are you worried?"

Xu Changping touched Xiao Mi's head and said with a smile.

"Thank you. I'll trouble you later." Although they were already very familiar with each other, Yang Xiaoyue still thanked Xu Changping very seriously.

"You're still being polite to me." Xu Changping glared at Yang Xiaoyue and said unhappily.

Xu Changping and Yang Xiaoyue were chatting with each other, and after a while, Xiao Mi fell asleep on the sofa.
