Chapter 36

Luli slept late and got up very late. He got up and left the cellar, washed up, picked up the newspaper on the cabinet, and murmured, "I had to rub it for ten minutes before using this toilet, and I felt so uncomfortable."

Zhu Guohua was working with Yu Fang. The two of them were talking while breaking beans and chatting with each other with a smile, "Don't use it, anyway, it's a little bit smelly and it won't kill anyone. By the way, you can sell it for a while, just change it to the toilet."

Yu Fang laughed! Lu Li glared at her and said in a sour tone: "Auntie, you're so happy when he said that. I told you a joke, but I didn't see you as beautiful. Alas, the surname Zhu, school is about to start, please find a house to move. I've found out now, it's a mistake to let you move in."

"I'll leave if I'm so angry!"

Luli joked with the two of them and took the newspaper to go to the bathroom. He had just left when a person came to the gate, carrying a travel bag and leaned out at the door. Neither of the two people in the yard paid attention. While choosing vegetables, he laughed at different levels.

The woman inside and outside hesitated for a long time. Seeing Yu Fang get up and enter the house, she thought it was a gap. She walked into the courtyard, walked behind the man, and gently put his waist behind him. Zhu Guohua was startled and said, "What's wrong?" She opened her mouth and said with a standard Beijing (Beijing) accent.

The girl also found out that she had recognized the wrong person, so she quickly got up and stood up, her pretty face turned red like a slight red! "You...I,..."

"Oh, Xiaowei is here?" Yu Fang walked out of the door with a cigarette in her mouth and handed it to Zhu Guohua. "Don't you know each other yet? This is Zhu Guohua, Jiahua's younger brother, who came to this university from Beijing (Beijing). Which university are you here?"

"Nan University."

"This is Liang Wei, a little partner. By the way, have you been to Beijing (Beijing)? You've been back in just a few days?"

Liang Wei was so embarrassed! Why didn’t she notice it when she came in? It was so inappropriate! When she turned around and let him know, how would she look at herself? She thought randomly in her heart, lowered her pink neck and said nothing.

Zhu Guohua didn't think anything, it was just an accident. "I should call you sister-in-law," he smiled and stretched out his hand, "Just call you my wife, or I can call me Erhua - my family calls me that."

Liang Wei nodded and showed him a shy smile, her handsome facial features, and her ***** made Zhu Guohua's heart shake for a moment, and she unconsciously envied Lu Li: This guy actually found such a beautiful girl?

"Xiao Wei, you have only been away for a few days, why are you back so soon? By the way, is Beijing (Beijing) fun? Where have you been?"

Liang Wei smiled and said nothing. She was going to Beijing with her classmates. This was agreed by the daughter of several of their college classmates before the summer vacation. Later, she was so angry about the relationship problem that she wanted to take this opportunity to relax. Unexpectedly, when she left Tianjin, Liang Wei was filled with huge negative emotions: How many years have she had been in love with Lu Li? How could she get so angry with him because of such a thing? It's really irresistible! She just hoped that the words and deeds she had said a few days ago would not make him angry, right?

With this feeling, even when I arrived in Beijing (Beijing), I could not imagine having fun comfortably. I was sitting alone in the corner. Instead, because she led other classmates, I became unhappy. Some of them even started to complain behind the scenes. Fortunately, Liang Wei took the initiative to ask: "I'll go back first, you can play by yourself, and take a few more photos when you look back, so that I can see what Beijing (Beijing) is like?" So, she only stayed in the hotel for one day and hurriedly boarded the return train.

Of course, there is no need to say these words to Yu Fang. The latter saw that she looked wrong and hesitated and did not ask much. Gu Yan said, "Hey, where is Xiaoxiao? Why haven't you come back after so long?"

Lu Li walked out of the toilet, washed his hands in front of the public water pipes in the alley, walked around the alley, and walked towards his home. He stopped shortly after walking: the gate of the No. 2 courtyard was open, and there were figures shaking inside. This made him feel strange. When the storm hit, He Zhixiu was completely killed. His two grandsons, He Jun and He Lian became a puppy. Soon after, the He family was sent back to their hometown. The No. 2 courtyard where they lived also became the rebels in the nearby streets.

He came to store the warehouse where the materials were confiscated. He had "invaded" many times back then, and stole a few books from time to time to read. But as time passed, this place became the home of city foxes and clubs. The yard was covered with waist-deep weeds, and huge mice ran around the ground. Even when he saw people coming, he was not afraid. He was even more brave, and crawled into and out of the gaps in the threshold, scaring the passing pedestrians, especially the big girl and the young wife, screamed.

Later, the street came out and asked someone to sort it out once, but soon after, the old view was reappeared. In the end, I had to give up it, demolish the wooden threshold, and instead build a simple barrier with blue bricks. I completely gave up this place. What happened today?

He leaned forward and looked inside. A man, wearing gray-blue cloth clothes, was holding a cigarette in his hand, and was burnt between his fingers. He was facing away from the door and talking to the people inside, "Okay, the kid is still waiting." He heard him speak in a Henan accent.

Luli coughed dryly, and the man immediately turned around, looking at him with gray eyes, "What are you doing?"

"Sorry," Lu Li could understand Henan dialect and said to the man: "Well, sorry, I used to live in this alley, isn't this..." A woman walked out of the east wing and stood beside the man. Although it had been more than ten years since Lu Li could tell at a glance that it was He Lian!

The person is still the same person, but the description is that his state is no longer as she was in her memory as she was back then. She wore the same gray-blue cloth costume, with a piece of blue cloth wrapped around her head, and a few messy and gray hair crawled out of the gap, giving people a feeling of aging before she got old. Her originally delicate and tender hair was already shriveled, and her eyes were slightly drooping, making Lu Li feel in his heart: How beautiful she was back then? How could she become like this after not seeing her for more than ten years?

"Who are you?"

"You are Sister He? I am from No. 1 Courtyard of Wangjia Hutong, and my name is Lu Li. When I was... back then, I saw you. Well, are your brother, grandfather and grandmother okay?"

"They... are gone. The Hongqi Canal is flooded and they are gone."

"Ah, I'm sorry, I don't know."

He Lian smiled, fortunately, her teeth were still white and neat, "It's okay."

"Well, I'll call you Sister He, all of them are old neighbors. If you need anything, I'll help me, just tell me that I have many friends, and doing some meticulous work may not work, and it's okay to do your best." Lu pointed behind them with his hand, "Let's say here. If you plan to organize the yard again, just say hello to me."

"No, thank you." He Lian said: "This place... was returned to our family after the policy was implemented, but now... I think I'll leave it for the time being, or wait for the future and think of other solutions."

Lu Li nodded, stopped talking to the other party, turned around and suddenly stopped again, "Well, Sister He, do you have the idea of ​​selling this house? If so, you tell me..."

He Lian couldn't speak, and the man said, "Sell? Can you buy it?"

"I'll buy it."

"You buy it? Your kid buys a house?"

He Lian kept pulling the man's sleeve next to him, but the man ignored him. Lu Li understood at a glance that although He Lian was beautiful and a city man, he would definitely not be able to make any decision in his husband's family! Such a situation made him both sad for the woman and a little happy, "Yes, why, are you planning to sell it? How much do you want?"

"How much do I want? 300 yuan, can you afford it?" The man hesitated for a while and gave the highest price in his mind.

Luli turned his head and thought for a while, smacking his tongue in embarrassment, "No, it's too much. If you have a little cheaper, I'll buy it."

“That, 200.”

"How about a fixed price, 150?"

"It's too little, you can give me more."

Luli was amused, but he didn't show any of it, "Let's do this, you and I take a step back, 180 yuan, we'll go through the procedures immediately, how about it?"

"It's done! Come on."

Lu Li laughed, "Brother, who has gone out with so much money? Besides, even if I brought it, you have to bring the house book and other things so that we can do business. If you take my money and don't give me the house book, what should I do?"

The man's gray eyes were as big as an egg, "You kid, don't you believe in nuns?"

"I believe you, how about we hand in hand with the money and the goods?"

"As soon as he turned around and said a few words to He Lian. The woman took out a cloth bag from her arms tremblingly and opened it. It was a ticket and a pile of photos. The man snatched it and the photos were scattered all over the floor. "Here, I've brought it, where is the money?"

"Follow me." Lu Li was proud of her. The second courtyard house is a main house with two wing rooms. The three-yard structure is a three-bedroom house with a room. It is more spacious and too grand than my aunt's house. I didn't expect to buy it at 180 yuan. This matter should be quickly. If the other party knew that he was deceived, the matter would be ruined! He happily walked into the second courtyard with the man, and when he entered the door, he shouted, "Auntie, get me some money. Hurry up!"

Yu Fang and the other two quickly came out of the room and asked, "What's wrong, what's the matter?"

"Don't worry, get me 200 yuan. Oh, and also find my household registration book. Aunt, I'm useful."

"Why do you ask me for money every day? Anyway, it's my little money. I'll be fine sooner or later." Yu Fang nagged for a hundred years, went into the house to open the cabinet, took out a paper roll and a household registration book, "I'll count it for you."

A roll of paper was 200, and Luli handed the money to the other party. The man really didn't expect that he could make so much money in the morning. He was so excited that his gray eyes became bright, and he spitted between his fingers, counting one by one, "That's right, that's right, hehe, hehe! Hehe, too much, too much?"

"I know that it's 20 more, but Sister He was my neighbor back then. You came from afar. The extra bit is to buy some food for you on the way and after you get home, you can buy something for your children."

"That's right? Let's go through the procedures now? The house management station is open now. Let's go?" Lu Li patted the man on the shoulder and suddenly turned around, "Hey, Xiaowei, are you back? You should hurry to Xu Yunjian's house and ask him to come with his father, and... Forget it, I'll inform Cao Xun to go."

******************************************************************

At ten o'clock, Lu Li chuckled all the way back to the yard. Everyone still didn't know what was going on. How could he call Xu's father in a slight way, "Xiaoxiao, why are you looking for me?"

"Uncle Xu, if you have something to come to you, please wait a while." Lu Li's face was filled with a smile that could not be concealed and said to Fang: "Aunt, our house is very good. We have lived in it for so many years and are quite emotional, but it's just a little smaller. As for me, I went to the toilet this morning and bought a house on the way back. Do you know where it is? It's the second courtyard, the original He family!"

Yu Fang was stunned for a moment, and suddenly raised his hand and gave him a mouth, "There is no place for you to live in at home? Why do you buy a house? This little money is not enough for you to do it! Why are you doing your own things now? Don't you discuss it with your family?"

Lu Li beat her back and covered her cheeks with her hands. Her voice felt aggrieved, "Auntie, don't I also want you and Xiaoting to live more comfortably? You don't know that the house is very big and it's very pleasant to live."

"I won't go! You bought it and live in it yourself! You have a b-shaped one. Are you more capable now? You can make money by yourself. If you buy a house, you won't tell me about such a big deal, ah?"

Everyone was embarrassed, and some wanted to come over to persuade him, but they knew very well that Lu Li had a relationship with Fang. Speaking of which, it was a "mother" who was disciplined by her "son", so it would be better for others to interrupt less!

Lu Liwen felt aggrieved and did not dare to make the old lady angry. His eyes turned and gave Liang Wei a wink, "Auntie, don't be angry with him. He is disobedient. If you want to beat him, beat him and scold him. If you hold him up with one hand, what are you afraid of? Even if you don't get angry, he will hurt his body, right?"

"He's so sorry for me! If he knew he felt sorry for me, he wouldn't think about spending money every day!"

"Yes, I know, you're right. Auntie, I'll accompany you into the house. You can take a break, smoke a cigarette, and then talk about him."

When the mother and mother entered the house, Lu Li smiled bitterly and shook her head. No one else knew how to persuade him. Only Xu Yunjian laughed, made a bad face, and whispered: "It's time! Let you always beat me up, right? Wait a moment, I'll tell my aunt to let her use a rolling pin to discount your kid's legs!"

Dad Xu raised his hand and gave his son a neck, "Stop talking nonsense! Xiaoxiao, don't pay attention to him. By the way, why are you looking for uncle?"

"Help me see the house, and look for someone to clean up. Since then, the house has been vacant. After the earthquake, I guess it's too bad inside - I'll leave it to you and I won't care. You can report the account to me at that time."

"Xiaoxiao, do we still need this?"

"No, if it's you alone, I'll say nothing, but it's not the case now. You may have to ask someone for help, right?"

Uncle Xu thought for a while, nodded and said, "That's fine. This matter, I'll find someone when I come back. How much does it cost to find someone? I'll let this kid tell you. Don't worry, I'll make it beautiful for you."

"I didn't say that, you are definitely an expert in this regard. I am a pure layman, so I will entrust you all." Lu Li nodded with a smile, "Then, Uncle Xu, let's go and have a look?"
