The leisurely life of Lin Yuxi

Nagging—"Please come in—"

"My sister is still studying." Yuxi pushed the door and entered the room.

"Yeah. Why aren't you asleep yet? You're not tired after sitting in the car for so long." Yun Duo turned around and said with a smile.

"Riding in the car is also sleeping, not tired at all, but sister, do you have to study so late every day? Can your body adapt? I think you have lost weight in the past six months."

"Really thin? Great, I still want to lose weight." Yun Duo smiled and didn't care.

"Sister Yunduo, why are you losing weight? I think you looked just right before, but now you're a little thinner." Yuxi felt that Yunduo had changed a lot, and she seemed to have lost ten or twenty catties.

"Hehe, does it mean that people in your village like fatter people?"

When Yun Duo said that they both remembered that the third aunt liked her when they were in Yuxi's house, even other women in the village also liked Yun Duo.

"Maybe all the women in our area are like this. There are quite a few Mongolian and Manchu women in the village, and they are all very strong." Yuxi shook her head.

"I think the people in your place are very simple. And the people around you are very close, unlike where we live in the opposite door and don't recognize each other."

"The countryside is like that. I'm afraid the whole village knows what's going on at home. There are no secrets."

"I heard from my dad that you took No. 1 in the two mid-term and final exams, right? You are so good at self-study. I feel a little strenuous now. I will go through this kind of life for another year, and I don't know what the result will be. .”

"Sister, this is not like you. I heard from my aunt that as long as you keep your current grades, you will have no problem passing the key points."

"I hope so." Yun Duo sighed.

"By the way, I'm going to prepare a gift for my sister."

"What? What?" Yun Duo looked at Yuxi expectantly.

"Here, this is a wooden sign carved by myself. Don't underestimate this wooden sign. I also asked our shaman to cast a spell on it. You have to take it with you so that you can be admitted to a good university. "Yuxi said with a mysterious face.

"Hehe, I laughed so hard, I'm still a shaman. Are there still shamans now? It's superstitious." Yun Duo smiled as he took the wooden sign, looked back and forth, and hung it around his neck, "Although I don't believe it. Yes, but this is also your wish. I will reluctantly accept it." Yun Duo had a naughty face, and this meeting finally felt a little girly.

Believe it or not, just a little bit of it can make a difference.Yuxi is cheerful, this wooden sign is engraved with a heart-cleaning talisman, the biggest function is to make people clear-headed, although it cannot improve intelligence, but a clear-headed mind will also increase the learning efficiency.

"What do you think of my house? Don't think it's small, it has all the internal organs. You don't even have to make the toilet yourself, I have it all ready-made. Also, look at how tidy the small courtyard behind is. And our land boundary, Where can you find such a convenient place. You can walk 200 meters to the east and you will find Di'anmen Street, where you can do everything conveniently." A young man in his 20s kept praising the house to his father and two who came to see the house.

"You also said, you see that the roof of your broken house has no tiles. If it rains, wait for it to leak. And what kind of toilet is this called? Who dares to use it without fear of falling if it is so broken. You said that if I buy your house, I have to spend money to repair it. It’s no different from building a new one, and your price is too expensive.”

"I said man, let's speak with conscience, my house and this land, do you say 10 yuan is expensive? Not expensive at all? It's just at the west end of this alley. How much was a house sold yesterday? 40 yuan, he My house is only two more rooms than mine, and mine is cheap enough, so you can ask around, if you want to find something cheaper than mine, I will give you this house for nothing.” The young man folded his arms Almost swore.

"The price is [-] yuan." Zhang Zhihui looked around and gave the final price.

"No man, there is no such price, you can go to another place to look." The young man shook his head.

Zhang Zhihui shook his head, patted Yuxi on the shoulder and led him out.Before he walked out, the young man said again, "How about [-] yuan, if it suits you, just pay the money and let's go through the formalities."

"[-]. This is the only price I can offer." Zhang Zhihui shook his head.

"Forget it. Let's go through the formalities." The young man said with a sigh.

Zhang Zhihui and Yuxi looked at each other and smiled. The house is only at this price now, and it can't be any cheaper. Of course, the previous price of [-] yuan was a bit high.

Zhang Zhihui took the money to go through the transfer procedures, and after an afternoon of tossing, this small store of [-] square meters near Houhai Ya'er Hutong was recorded in Yuxi's name.

"Uncle, I will return the money to you when I earn money." Yuxi was a little embarrassed, he didn't expect this small store to be so expensive, and the uncle still registered with his household registration book.

"Success, pay me back when you earn money." Zhang Zhihui replied with a smile and then patted him on the head, "You, part of this house money is the rent of the house your grandma left. It has been 12 years, and the rent is about 3 yuan. Your aunt and I have saved more than 3 yuan. I sold a painting left by your grandfather for 6 yuan. After using it up, I will settle accounts with you for the rest of the renovation money. If you pay me back in the future, just pay me back [-]. My sister and I share half of your grandparents' stuff. Don't think too much about it. "

Yuxi was moved, "Uncle, I won't pay you back, and we each have half of the shares in the store."

"I don't want it. It's your recipe whether it's good or bad. I don't want it." Zhang Zhihui refused.

Yuxi thought for a while, "Otherwise, it will be [-]% for Uncle, and it will be used as a dowry for Sister Yunduo in the future. In this way, Uncle can also help me bear some risks. How about it?" Previously, the stewed meat recipe was also [-]% of the shares.

Zhang Zhihui was a little tempted to hear it, but it didn't mean that the problem of taking risks was that the store would not be able to pay for it if it was done well.It's just that he was thinking about the dowry to Yun Duo in the future, and thought about it, "No need for [-]%, let's take [-]%. You will have to pay [-]% for the rest." He knows the effect of the formula better than Yuxi.

Even if the matter was settled, Yuxi started wandering around the shop.In the past few days, my uncle took him around whenever he had time. It seems that this place is suitable for visiting. The transportation here is convenient, there are many people, and there are many residents around.The location is still at the entrance of the alley, and people who come and go pass here.What's even more rare is that it is close to the house left by Yuxi's grandma, and it takes only 5 minutes to walk there.Just behind Yan'er Hutong.

The house is two rooms, one bright and one dark, with a total of thirty square meters.There is a small rectangular courtyard with a length of [-] meters [-] and a width of [-] meters [-].The small courtyard is surrounded by independent walls.No matter how you look at it, it's very suitable.

In the past year, the price of courtyard houses has started to rise, but all houses of a certain size have risen, but here are only average. One is that the place is too small.Even the yard is only [-] square meters, not to mention that the house is too dilapidated. If you want to live in it, you must repair it. The most important thing is the surrounding environment. It is surrounded by courtyard buildings. Many people wanted to buy it. But the property rights here are too complicated, and there are more than a dozen families living in a courtyard.Very messy.The so-called stores are only open facing the street.The shattered wooden windows can't block anything.

"This needs to be cleaned up. Do you have any ideas?" Zhang Zhihui looked at it and asked.

"I think it can be directly made into the feeling of a courtyard house, with doors open in the open and windows installed in the dark. The front and back doors can be made the same, and things can be placed directly at the door when it opens. In the future, it can be moved in when it grows bigger. Although more than 30 square meters is not big, it is enough for business. Uncle, I still think that we will hire someone to look after the store. We can also separate a part of the dark room for the people who look after the store. There is a toilet in the back yard , I don’t think it’s very good, I have to rebuild it, and build a small house to make a kitchen.”

Zhang Zhihui nodded, "You're quite right."

Yuxi smiled, "Actually, I still want to cover the whole backyard with a glass cover, just like the greenhouse I saw when I went to my aunt's school last time. I just don't know how much it will cost, and whether to let it go. build."

Zhang Zhihui's eyes lit up when he heard it, "You have a good idea. The space will be larger after this is done, and the kitchen can also be made into an open one. Let's go back. I'll find someone to design it. I'm sure it's done. pretty."

Once the house is settled, the big problem will be solved.It was past five o'clock when the two of them got home. Today is the day when the uncle and the others had a small party, and it was also a party that everyone initiated to meet the three Yuxi brothers.

At six o'clock, a family of six came to the Yangxiezi restaurant in Guang'anmen, "We used to come here to eat hot pot, but the store was not so big at that time." After getting out of the car, the uncle pointed to the store door.

"Zhihui, haha, we haven't seen each other for a long time." As soon as the group of people arrived at the door, a fat and tall man came out and came to Zhang Zhihui with a hearty smile on his face.

"Hey, Guoqiang. Long time no see. You are getting fatter, haha——" Zhang Zhihui knocked Guoqiang on the chest with his fist.The flesh trembled.

"I can't help it, I have a lot of entertainment on weekdays." Fatty also patted his stomach helplessly, "Your siblings have talked about me a lot because of this. I can't help it." After speaking, he looked at Yuxi who was standing beside Zhang Zhihui, with a complicated look on his face , seems to be surprised and a little sad. "This is Xiaohan's son. He looks exactly like Xiaohan."

"Well, let me introduce you. This is Xiaohan's eldest son, Lin Yuxi, this is his second son, Lin Yuhu, and his third son, Lin Yuhai." Zhang Zhihui introduced the three children.

"Okay, these three boys are good looking, and they are all strong. Let uncle hug you." The fat man stretched out his hand and picked up the second baby who was standing on the ground. "Hey, they are quite heavy. How old are you? Did you go to school? My surname is Zhao, so you can call me Uncle Zhao. In fact, Uncle is more appropriate." Zhao Guoqiang's expression has returned to normal, and he is very enthusiastic towards the three children. "Let's go in quickly. As long as you are late, everyone is here." After speaking, she held her second baby in one hand and Yuxi in the other, and walked in. Yuxi looked up at this new uncle and felt that he was holding His hands trembled a little, as if his mood was not as calm as it looked on the outside.

A group of people entered a large box. There were two large tables in the room. At this time, several people were already seated, men, women and children, based on families.Watching them come in, several people greeted them, one of them was a woman in her thirties, her eyes were red, and she couldn't leave her eyes when she saw Yuxi, and stepped forward a few steps, "This is Xiaohan's eldest son." For sure Words are no longer answered.

"I'm your mother's little boy, you can call me Aunt Lin." The woman touched Yuxi's head, tears came down again, she turned her head to look at Zhang Zhihui and said, "It's really like it."

"Aunt Lin." Yuxi called out. Although he was unfamiliar, these people gave him a feeling of closeness. These people used to be good friends with his mother.

"Hey." The woman responded.

"Okay, Gong Lin, don't be sad. You should be happy for Xiaohan, she has three such good sons." Zhang Zhihui comforted her.

"Yeah." Gong Lin nodded, then looked at Zhao Lihua again, "Sister-in-law, this is the third child, what's his name?"

"Yuhai, what Guoqiang is holding is Yuhu."

"Come to Yuxi and let me introduce you. This is your Aunt Lin. You know, she and your mother are best friends. This is your Uncle Ding Jianguo Ding. He is my childhood friend. Now we are married to your Aunt Lin. This is their Douding. What is it called? You see, I only remember my nickname."

"Ding Mao" Ding Jianguo reminded.

"Yes, Ding Mao. Ding Mao was born in January [-], right? Hey, this is the same year as Yuhu, and it seems to be bigger than Yuhu. Yuhu is also in January. On the day your Ding Mao lived?"

"No. 31. On the third day of the Lunar New Year." Aunt Lin said.

"Hey, what a coincidence, I spent a day with Yuhu." Zhang Zhihui smiled.Yuxi also looked at the child. He was quite tall, but a little thin, and looked clean.

After this round, Zhang Zhihui continued to introduce. "This is Zhao Yunfei, an old neighbor from the past. We grew up together. His house is on the east side of your grandpa's alley. He is older than me, and you call him uncle. Lao Zhao, your family is not here? Where is the child? "

"My daughter-in-law is working overtime today, and the child is at grandma's house. When our family has a rest during the day, invite a few children to our house for dinner." Zhao Yunfei said in a rough voice. Not like Zhao Yun like Zhang Fei.

"Oh." Zhao Yunfei's wife is also a doctor, working overtime is normal.Zhang Zhihui turned his gaze to the man next to Zhao Yunfei, paused before introducing. "This is Yang Fei, my former old classmate. He used to always go to the house to play, and he has a good relationship with your mother."

"Hello, Uncle Yang." Yuxi greeted with a smile.This Uncle Yang is the tallest of several uncles. He noticed it just now when he entered the house. He is really like the saying that he sits like a bell and stands like a pine. He should have been a soldier in the past, and he is very energetic.It's just that this Uncle Yang didn't seem to want to talk much, and he wasn't as enthusiastic towards him as the others.But Yuxi could still see some emotion from the uncle's eyes.

"Come to Yuxi, let me introduce you, these are your aunt and your sister." Uncle Fan pulled Yuxi over and introduced the two people next to him.Aunt Fan is a bit fat, and she is round and round, and she is full of joy when she doesn't smile.Fan Qingqing, the daughter of Uncle Fan's family, is a little girl about ten years old. Wearing a red knitted skirt and a small white shirt, she looks very quiet.

Everyone knew each other and sat down one after another. Yuxi sat with his uncle and the others, and the second baby and the third baby sat at the other table with their aunt.

On the one hand, this meal will introduce Yuxi and his three brothers to everyone. On the other hand, everyone will get together. They were either neighbors or classmates before. Although they met every other day, they have never been together like this.

Listening to them telling stories from the past, Yuxi also got to know her mother better. The more she drank, the more people became interested, and the things about old sesame seeds and rotten millet began to pour out.

"Come on, Feizi, let's have a drink. You and I have been quarrelsome before, let's have a drink, and the past will be over." Zhao Guoqiang stood up and raised his glass to Yang Fei who was sitting next to Yuxi.

Yang Fei raised his brows, "Brother Qiang, you know I have nothing against you." Yang Fei said and stood up.

"I know. I'm not as good as you." Zhao Guoqiang drank the wine suddenly, and poured it again. "Brother, brother, I'm not as good as you, good luck tricks people."

Yang Fei also took a sip, and poured it out, the two of them drank it.

"Oh, you two can do it." Zhang Zhihui stood up, "Guoqiang, you have a family and children, forget about the past, and Yang Fei too, hurry up and start a family, you are almost forty , how can you not get married."

Yang Fei shook his head, "Brother, that's it for me. Why don't you let Yuxi be my son." After speaking, Yang Fei turned his head with a smile and put his hand on Yuxi's head.This was the first smiling face Yuxi saw.

"Go-just talk nonsense." Zhang Zhihui sat down and didn't answer.

The atmosphere at this table was a bit dull, so I heard Qingqing yelling over there, "You two stop fighting." The little girl's voice was weak and anxious.Yuxi turned her head to see that Erwa and Ding Mao were fighting, and the two little guys were rolling on the ground beside the dining table.No one is willing to admit defeat.Sanwa was bouncing and jumping next to him, oh, come on, second brother, oh, oh, it looks like he is a master who is afraid of chaos.As for the women on the table, none of them spoke, and it was exciting to watch the excitement.Only the little girl Fan Qingqing was more anxious.

Although Ding Mao is taller than Erwa, Erwa's climbing up and down in the village on weekdays is definitely not comparable to Ding Mao.In the end, Erwa pressed Ding Mao to the ground, pulled his clothes with both hands, and pressed them tightly, "I will not accept it. I will be the boss in the future. I am older than you." The little guy looked up, looking like you If you are not convinced, I will continue to beat you like that.

Ding Mao rolled his eyes, but he was stronger than others, and finally had to call out "Boss." After he finished, he pouted.

Erwa was very happy to hear that, but she didn't show it. Instead, she stood up and pulled Ding Mao up, "Since you call me the boss, this is for you." Erwa took out Yuxi from her pocket and made it for him. Gadgets.A wooden detachable trolley looks like a boxy block, but after being disassembled and assembled, it can be turned into a small tractor.

Ding Mao took the small toy, looked at it, and didn't know what it was, "This is how to play." Erwa took it over and twisted a few times, then took it apart, and then assembled it together to become a small car.

Ding Mao looked amusing, and didn't care about losing the fight just now.They lay down on the carpet with Erwa and started playing.

The adults in the room feel that children are nothing. Isn’t children’s friendship formed from fighting? Sanwa is also a master who fears that the world will not be chaotic, so he has to take care of it in the future, otherwise he will be lawless, and Erwa who slapped Yitianzao learned this from whom?
