Siheyuan: Steel Mill Driver

"Ahem, Director Wang, you forgot that I have another room. After they finish washing up, if they are beautiful, Ke'er and I will get married. Will that be okay?"

"You kid, if you're not pretty, why don't you give up?" Director Wang was not surprised. If he could marry a local, it would be the best outcome and it would also solve a big problem for the street.

"That's not the case. I would have taken them in even if they weren't pretty. But I'll have to trouble you, Aunt Wang. There are so many people fleeing famine, isn't it easy to find a pretty one? After you marry me, there will be no gossip, right?"

"Hey, kid, you and Fengqin are pretty good, how come! Fengqin is such a stubborn kid! She doesn't even explain her difficulties clearly."

Li Feng sighed. He had sent many gifts to Ding Fengqin during this period, and of course he also sent many gifts to Ding Youtian.

But he never asked why Ding Fengqin wanted to divorce him at that time.

After issuing the certificate, Li Feng asked the two to wait at the street office. He sent the car back to the factory and went to buy two sets of women's clothing.

When he returned to the neighborhood office, he found that Su Ke'er and her sister looked a little nervous. Li Feng stepped forward and asked, "What's wrong? Are you afraid that I don't want you anymore?"

"Let's go. Once you get on my pirate ship, it will be hard to get off."

Su Ke'er and Su Keyue saw that Li Feng was a little surprised, so they went forward and hugged his arms.

Li Feng quickly said, "Wait a minute, I really can't accept you guys doing this. These are the new clothes I bought, how about you change into them?"

Su Ke'er thought for a moment and said, "After we change our clothes, can we go back and restore our appearance?"

"Okay, let's go."

When they returned to the courtyard, no one saw the three of them. Li Feng heard the voices in the middle courtyard and knew that all the women in the courtyard were in the middle courtyard. This was a good idea as it saved trouble.

After entering the room, he closed the door and took out a large basin for washing clothes. It was not that he did not want to take out the bathtub, but it was really inconvenient with two women around.

"You should wash up first and restore your original appearance. It really makes me feel uncomfortable watching you like this."

After he finished explaining, he drew the curtains, left the room, and locked the door.

He was not afraid that the two women would run away, but he was mainly afraid that someone would suddenly come back without knocking and go straight into the house. If Su Ke'er married him in the future, wouldn't it be like having a vast green grassland on his head?

Li Feng left the room, feeling a little embarrassed. What was he going to do? Forget it, he decided to go to the middle courtyard and talk to the old lady about life and ideals.

After he arrived at the central courtyard, the courtyard suddenly became silent.

"Haha, what's going on? Wasn't it very lively just now? Why are you all silent all of a sudden?"

Jia Zhang smiled and said, "Haha, why did you come back so early today?"

Li Feng found a place to sit down and said, "Oh, I finished my task at the factory ahead of schedule, so I came back first. Aunt Jia, what were you guys talking about?"

"Look at what you guys were talking about just now. Wasn't it lively?"

Jia Zhang said awkwardly, "What else can we talk about? Let's talk about food! We have agreed that we will go out together to dig some wild vegetables tomorrow."

Li Feng guessed that Jia Zhang also wanted to join in the fun, otherwise this lazy woman would never go. He thought of something and said with a smile: "Aunt Jia, it's normal for others not to have enough food. If you don't have enough food, it's purely your own fault."

"Ah? Gousheng, what do you mean by that?"

"Since you asked, let me tell you. Do you know that there are many people fleeing famine right now?"

"You know? Are you trying to say that I'm better than them?"

Li Feng shook his head and continued, "No, I mean that many of them fell down while walking on the road. Once they fell down, it was no different from death. Although what I said was a bit blunt, it was all the truth."

Jia Zhang asked with a puzzled look on her face: "That's right, then what exactly do you want to say? Why don't I understand?"

The others also pricked up their ears to listen. After all, there are few women who don't like to listen to gossip.

"What I'm saying is, I don't know which will come first, tomorrow or an accident. Maybe you can be smiling today, but you won't even be able to see the sun tomorrow."

These words, like a bolt from the blue, struck every woman's heart.

"So, I want to ask you, Aunt Jia, you have saved so much money for your retirement. When you die one day, who are you going to give the money to?"

Jia Zhang...

Li Feng looked at her and continued, "If you don't spend money, what's the difference between having no money at all? Even if you don't have a penny now, can I, Brother Dongxu, still ignore you?"

Jia Zhang didn't know what she was thinking about. Her hands were shaking as she took out a painkiller from her pocket and put it into her mouth.

I saw that she didn't even drink the water and ate it directly, and she didn't even think it was bitter.

When the other women heard this, they felt that what Li Feng said made sense, but it had nothing to do with them because they had no money.

But there was one person who did listen to it, and that was an old lady.

After a while, Jia Zhang recovered and asked, "Gousheng, what do you think I should do? I'm afraid that all the money will be spent at once. What should I do in the future?"

"That's easy. It depends on you. If you want to save money for your son or grandson, then there's nothing to say. Just keep it the way it is now."

"If you simply want to provide for your retirement, that's easy. First, look at how much money you have, and then think about how old you can live given your current physical condition."

"If you have 1000 yuan and can live for 10 years, that means you have 100 yuan a year. Add this 120 yuan to the pension money Dongxu gives you every month, let's say it's yuan, which is yuan a month."

"I don't need to tell you about spending money, isn't it simple?"

Jia Zhang nodded and said, "Well, it's very simple and a good idea."

An old lady suddenly asked: "What if you get sick?"

Li Feng smiled and said, "I won't talk about minor illnesses. For example, you and Jia Zhangshi didn't have much impact. What about serious illnesses?"

The auntie asked anxiously, "Can you tell me?"

"I'm going to say something unpleasant, but please don't be offended. Serious illnesses, such as tumors, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, cost tens of thousands of dollars to treat. Listen, this is the cost of treatment, not the money for recovery. We are all adults, so why can't you understand such a simple truth?"

An auntie asked anxiously: "Our thoughts may be different from yours, young people. We want to hear your thoughts too."

"My idea? It's very simple. If you have a serious illness, just let nature take its course. No one is immune to death. Just think positively, save money, eat whatever you want, play whatever you want. It's so simple."
