Tao Nanfeng laughed and hugged the other party back: "Xiao Aiyun!"

Xiao Aiyun was admitted to Jiangcheng Normal University. The school is located in Jiangbei. Both of them are busy with each other. They usually meet few people. It is rare to meet here, and it is really a surprise.

"Why are you here?"

"Why are you here?"

The two of them spoke in unison and smiled at each other.

Xiao Aiyun went back to her parents' home today. She just got off the car and met Tao Nanfeng. She simply pulled her: "Go away! Just meet me, please accompany me to go home. My mother asked someone to come and say something happened at home. Let me come back."

Tao Nanfeng hesitated for a moment: "I can't participate in your family affairs, right?"

Xiao Aiyun begged her: "Please, just accompany me. When I was in Xiufeng Mountain, I dreamed of going home. But now I am back in Jiangcheng to study. I am like going home now. Every time I come back, I am in a mess and very annoyed."

Tao Nanfeng said: "Do you feel sorry for your mother and younger sister?"

Xiao Aiyun pulled her to the factory: "If I hadn't felt sorry for my mother, I really wouldn't want to come back. It was a pleasant time to be a teacher on the farm, and my younger sister could also borrow school in the middle school in the town. Now, I'm back in Jiangcheng, and my younger sister is back to study. We both live in and study, and we usually come back less often."

She knew that Tao Nanfeng was soft-hearted, so she continued to beg: "You are very strong. If I was dragged by my father, I could save me at least. Why is it so coincidental? I met you as soon as I got off the car. This is God's will. God's will cannot be violated. Do you know?"

Tao Nanfeng laughed at her and did not refuse, and went to the old dormitory with her.

It's still so dark stairwell door, with a sour smell similar to a kimchi jar floating in the space door. Open the rusty iron door and go in. The cramped space door and the chaotic environment. Such living conditions are indeed difficult to make people calm down.

Hearing the movement, Xiao Ma walked out of the kitchen with her one-year-old grandson in her arms. Seeing Tao Nanfeng, she quickly put the child on the rocking chair and hurriedly packed up the scattered clothes on the sofa, with a sense of sorrow in her smile.

"Your classmate is here, sit down quickly."

While helping her mother clean up the house, Xiao Aiyun complained: "Big sister, where is the second sister? Why don't you help me? You are so tired of raising children, but they are free!"

Xiao Ma was soft-hearted and hurriedly said, "Don't quarrel, don't quarrel, I don't go to work now, it's okay to do some housework. They all have to go to work, and it's also hard."

Xiao Aiyun couldn't stand his mother's submissive appearance the most, and her face turned red with anger.

"Mom, when you were at work, your eldest and second sisters were unemployed, you were still working alone? Why didn't they feel sorry for your hard work at that time?"

Xiao’s father, Xiao Gang, eldest sister, Xiao Aixue, second sister, Xiao Aishuang, and two brother-in-law walked out of the house together.

The eldest sister said: "You are a girl who is not married and has children. Do you know what difficulties and hardships are there? You blame us as soon as you come back!"

The second sister snorted coldly: "You are so good! You feel sorry for your mother. Why don't you come back every day to help with cooking, washing and taking care of the children? By the way, you can get one for 10 yuan or 8 yuan?"

It is normal for the Xiao sisters to quarrel, and their parents never pay attention to it, nor stop or interfere.

Tao Nanfeng didn't like this noisy environment, so he frowned and looked up, and was stunned. Is his second brother-in-law Wang Gongsong?

Wang Gongsong raised his hand and pointed at Tao Nanfeng, and said for a long time: "Why are you here?"

Xiao Aishuang asked nervously: "How did you know each other?"

Wang Gongsong stomped his feet: "It was she who bought my old house."

Tao Nanfeng is Xiao Aiyun's best friend, and the Xiao family naturally recognizes her.

After hearing what Wang Gongsong said, Xiao Aishuang glanced at her angrily: "It turned out that you bought the old house that his grandfather wanted to leave for him. I heard that it only cost 200 yuan? I bought a large tile house with a yard for 200 yuan. I really know how to calculate it! If we weren't anxious to use money when we got married, then how could we sell a good house to you?"

This is really speechless.

Tao Nanfeng stood up and glanced at Xiao Aiyun: "I really don't know that the house I bought was from your second brother-in-law's house. The old house was a dangerous house. If I hadn't been renovated, it would have collapsed long ago. Ask your second brother-in-law, your father and his brother were crushed by the falling beam while repairing the house."

Wang Gongsong's eyes were wandering, and he obviously could not refute Tao Nanfeng's words.

Tao Nanfeng continued: "It costs 200 yuan to buy a house after getting married. Your parents can't help but think of selling the house. You go to another place to inquire about who is willing to spend 200 yuan to buy an old rural house that collapsed the beam?"

Wang Gongsong touched his nose, cleared his throat, and mocked himself: "Forget it, since he is the friend of the third sister, this matter will be over."

Xiao Aiyun's mouth has always been powerful, and she curled her lips and said, "I'm still good at getting a bargain. My second brother-in-law is really good at speaking!"

Seeing that her husband was criticized, Xiao Aishuang said to Xiao Aiyun angrily: "I have something to discuss with you at home, why are you dragging outsiders here?"

"I'm leaving." Tao Nanfeng turned around and left.

Xiao Aiyun grabbed her and said, "I'll go with you."

When the two walked out of the house, Xiao Aiyun apologized repeatedly: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it's because I was not careful. My family is worried and shouldn't have let you come with me, so you're wronged."

Tao Nanfeng shook his head, pursed his lips and said nothing.

The eldest sister Xiao Aixue chased her out and said to Xiao Aiyun: "Why are you running? If you have something to do, you will find you!"

Xiao Aiyun said, "I'll bring my friends back. I don't want to talk to you about your attitude."

Xiao Aixue squeezed out a smile: "I'm sorry, sorry, you know that your second sister has a stinky mouth."

Seeing that Xiao Aiyun refused to go home, the eldest sister of the Xiao family had to stand in the open space in front of the building and talked with her hand.

Tao Nanfeng picked up an ear on the side.

The eldest sister of the Xiao family took over the job of her mother. Xiao Aishuang was unemployed for a long time and finally found a job as a recorder in the street office. After being introduced by someone, she married Wang Gongsong, a towel factory worker.

Fortunately, Wang Gongsong's parents supported him and took out the 200 yuan he earned from selling the house. The couple bought an old dormitory for employees, went through the name change procedures in the real estate department and moved out.

When they got married and had a house, the second sister of the Xiao family was not sure how proud they were, and they would brag in front of their elder sister from time to time.

Xiao Aixue was jealous of the second sister, but her husband's family had a nest, but her financial conditions were poor and she had no money to support her, so she could only live in her parents' home. She had to ask her parents for help.

She saved 100 yuan and wanted to borrow 100 yuan from her parents. Her parents didn't have it, so she made a decision to deal with Xiao Aiyun.

"San sister, you are a public teacher on the farm. You have high salary and low expenses. You don't have tuition fees when you go to college now. The school pays subsidies and the unit pays wages. You must be very rich. You can also keep the money there, so just borrow 100 yuan to your sister, right?"

When Xiao Aiyun heard that he was borrowing money, he suddenly burst into anger.

"This is what you are talking about? I didn't hear a word of concern for you when I was suffering and exhausted on the farm. Now you think of me when you ask for money? Is there anyone who is like you who is a sister?"

Xiao Gang walked out of the house and shouted: "Don't think that after you have read for a few days, you will be the sky! Even if you become a leader, you will still be the daughter of my Xiao family. Brothers and sisters will help each other together, so that you can live a good life. If you help your elder sister today, you will help you one day if you are angry outside, then this is what a family is called."

Xiao Gang's voice was loud, and his grandson was frightened to play in the house and started crying loudly.

Ma Xiao walked out of the house with her child in her arms, begging Xiao Aiyun while slapping the child's back.

"Aiyun, if you have money, please help your elder sister. This house is really too crowded. Your brother can't study. Your father plans to retire when he is sixteen years old and let him take the post. Such a big boy can't live with us all the time, right? How can he live with him when he gets married and has children in the future? You are the only one in the family who can study. If you are good at the company, you can only talk to you..."

Mother Xiao’s eyes were full of fatigue, and her palms and backs were full of flesh. What could she do? She could only roll the thick part into the thin part, which made her feel wronged.

Seeing his mother's sad eyes, Xiao Aiyun's nose felt sore and almost burst into tears.

My eldest brother-in-law is a honest man. He walked out and pulled Xiao Aixue's sleeve: "Forget it, it's not easy for a third sister. The fourth sister is studying and living money is all she has to do with, and it may not be much."

This speech immediately touched Xiao Aixue's nerves, and he swung his hand and scolded: "It's all you who are useless! You have been married for four years and live in your parents' home every day. Are you still a man? Am I just trying to make a home for us?"

Settling down is the dream of many ordinary people.

Hearing this, Tao Nanfeng spoke.

"The towel factory is building a staff dormitory. Don't rush to buy a house. Wait, you will be assigned to the house."

Hearing this, Xiao Aixue was slightly angry: "Everyone said to build a house, but who knows whether the new house will be distributed to us ordinary employees? It must be those leaders who live there!"

Tao Nanfeng said affirmatively: "I can get the difference! There are five dormitory buildings in total, 24 households in Building 1, 24 households in Building 2, 36 households in Building 3, 4 are Yuanyang Building, 108 households, and 5 are single dormitory and 120 doors. After deducting the employees who already have housing, you should get the difference if you have so many houses."

When Xiao Aixue heard this, her eyes lit up: "Really? Oh, there are so many houses. I'll do it..."

She calculated with her fingers for a long time without a result. However, Xiao Aiyun was quick-witted and she could not forget it at once.

"You have no chance in the unit building in front, with a total of 96 households, probably for leading cadres and old workers; but you have 108 households in Building 4, and you are dual-employed and have children, so you can definitely get it."

Wang Gongsong ran out and asked anxiously: "Can I be assigned to Building No. 5? Having a door is enough! I don't have high requirements."

Xiao Aixue felt that she had won a game and glanced at him proudly: "Didn't you just completed the procedures in the real estate department? A household like you must not participate in the distribution of houses, hehe."

Wang Gongsong suddenly felt relieved and squatted on the ground with his head in his arms.

Second sister Xiao Aishuang rolled her eyes and looked at Tao Nanfeng: "Aren't you studying? Why are you so clear about the dormitory building in our factory?"

Tao Nanfeng said: "I participated in architectural design."

As soon as these words were said, the Xiao family suddenly felt that she had a light and a golden light shone.

Someone passed by the dormitory building and recognized Tao Nanfeng at a glance, and ran over to say hello.

"Student Tao, you are here just right. Did you accept the request I made last time? When can I start building a house?"

"I like you among those people from the design institute, what a nice child."

"Yes, only Student Tao listened carefully to us and wrote it in his notebook. You have a beautiful young man who is so arrogant that he seems to have a virus on us."

Tao Nanfeng replied with a smile: "Don't worry, I have sorted out your opinions, and there are a lot of dormitory buildings. There are 96 units, 108 Yuanyang Building, and 120 single dormitory doors. Let's wait to divide the houses."

The residents of the old dormitory building cheered.

When he got home, Tao Nanfeng was still a little excited.

I remember that in January 1976, when I went home to pick up my luggage with Xiao Aiyun and came out of the old dormitory building of the towel factory, the poem "I wish I could have thousands of doors in the Guangsha to shelter all the poor people in the world" came to my mind, and I felt a great responsibility.

Finally taking the first step to dream, Tao Nanfeng felt very accomplished.

There are thousands of doors in Guangsha, start with these more than 300 houses!

This excitement supported Tao Nanfeng to happily devote himself to work.

The first step is to report on the problem of weak geological soil layers.

Tao Shouxin knew Tao Nanfeng's superpowers and thought it was a bit tricky. Whether the superpowers could be exposed was not convincing just because of the lush grass and trees.
