Seventy cannon fodder is a ruthless man

Chapter 420

Admiring the exquisite antiques, Meng Tao and Gu Yingying admired the exquisite skills of ancient craftsmen. Xu Mingni didn't want to leave at all. She was busy looking for paper and pens, and asked Gu Yingying if she had a camera to take a picture. She wanted to use this place as her studio.

A banquet was about to start ahead, Aunt Ma came over to call them, Gu Yingying took out a large silk cloth, pulled it apart with Meng Tao to cover the whole desk, then locked the door and went out.

Seeing Xu Mingni's reluctance, Meng Tao told her about the mountain of antique fragments in his space.

When Xu Mingni heard that there might be pottery and porcelain from the Tang, Yuan, Ming and Song Dynasties or even older in it, she really got excited, grabbed Meng Tao, and asked her where the broken porcelain was?You have to go there quickly and protect it, otherwise it will be too damaged and lose its archaeological value.

Meng Tao said: "In a place near the provincial capital of province D, I passed by Shen Yu at the time, but I forgot the specific place name, Shen Yu should know it, you should ask him."

Xu Mingni was impatient, so she ran to find Shen Yu immediately.

Gu Yingying and Meng Tao went to pick up Xu Zhen and Shen Yunhai's baby, and then went ahead to have dinner together.

Halfway through the banquet, they suddenly heard loud cries coming from the front yard. Everyone was surprised: Today is a good day, the whole family is here, who is causing trouble?

Grandma Xu asked what was going on?Aunt Ma finished speaking with the staff who came from the front yard at the door, then hurriedly approached, and said softly:

"It's Gu Panpan, her mother, and her younger sister... They yelled that Hengkai and Panpan are the destined couple, and that Hengkai cannot marry Yingying, otherwise..."

Gu Yingying, who was sitting next to Grandma Xu, only felt her head buzzing, and her face instantly turned red, and soon turned pale again.

The old lady Gu, Jian Rong, and Gu Yingying's two half-sisters, Gu Fangfang and Gu Pingping, who were sitting opposite, were surprisingly calm and did not seem surprised. Gu Fangfang and Gu Pingping even rolled their eyes at Gu Yingying with contempt and disgust. , as if to say: Look, this is the result of robbing other people's marriage!
Meng Tao felt annoyed as she watched from the sidelines, and subconsciously clenched her chopsticks: If this is her own sister, she will beat them into pigs' heads, and she will make a detour when she meets them in the future.

Grandma Xu patted Gu Yingying's hand, said a few words to comfort her, and then greeted everyone to eat, as if nothing had happened.

After a meal, the Gu family left in a hurry and went back.

Shen Yu later told Meng Tao: Gu Panpan, the mother and daughter, were making a big fuss, and they used all kinds of tricks. The guard let them enter the gate because of Grandpa Xu's instruction—the gate of his house is not a stage. It's not an irrelevant stranger, it's outrageous to cry and curse at the door.

So the farce of Gu Panpan's mother and daughter in the front yard, Mr. Gu and Gu Guangming all saw it. Although they are relatives and friends, but losing face is losing face, and Gu Guangming was asked by Uncle Xu, "Didn't it mean that Gu Panpan was grounded? You guys?" House rules used to be quite strict."

The father and son couldn't stay any longer, so they finally got to Xi San, so they hurriedly packed up and went home.

Grandpa Xu originally planned to have a private talk with Mr. Gu after dinner, but it was impossible.

As for what will happen internally after the people of the Gu family go back, I don't know. The Xu family can't control it, and they don't want to control it.

Two days later, Gu Yingying went back to work in Haishi, and her aunt persuaded her to transfer back to the capital. Gu Yingying said that the students she was leading were very talented, and after two years, she would be able to give birth to a child with peace of mind.

The eldest aunt smiled when she heard this, and naturally wanted to support her.

In April, the weather was sunny and pleasant, and Meng Tao started to take her baby out for shopping.

There is a baby stroller in the space, which is similar to the one Shen Yu bought when he was shopping in Hong Kong City. Its style and function are similar to those of later generations. It can lie down and sit, and has a canopy that can be retracted freely. It is not a problem to prevent rain and sun. The wheels are also shockproof.

This small trolley was considered a rarity in China in the 70s. It was taken out and used, and it always attracted people's attention when walking on the street. When someone asked, Meng Tao only said that he bought it from the Friendship Store.

Grandpa Xu had spoken, and naturally there were people doing things. For several days, Meng Tao followed Liu Yongsheng, Han Shufang, Wang Cuixi and others, with a group of seven or eight. Sometimes Liu Jianli and Xu Yuting came to join in the fun even after class, and there were even more people, going everywhere. I went to see the house and walked almost all the alleys and alleys. Finally, I finally saw two courtyards and decided to buy them.

These two courtyards are more dilapidated than before. Except for the walls that are still barely supported, the tiles and brick walls of the houses inside are basically collapsed, but they are in a good location. They are on the same street. There is only an alleyway between them. Maybe they used to belong to the same family. The size of the yard is similar, which meets the requirements of Liu and Xu. They have a deep and strong relationship for many years, and they are like brothers.

Because the house is quite dilapidated and the price is not expensive, each courtyard charges a symbolic 300 yuan, and the relevant procedures will be completed on the same day. Wang Cuixi got the real estate certificate, laughed and cried excitedly, and said to Xu Yuting:
"We already have a family in the capital. It's a pity that your father left too early. It would be great if he was still alive. In the future, if you marry a daughter-in-law and give birth to a grandson, Mom will be satisfied!"

Xu Yuting originally saw his mother crying, and came to comfort him, but when he heard that he was going to marry a wife and have a baby, he quickly avoided: "Talk this to my brother, my brother is not married, what's the matter with me?"

Wang Cuixi was so angry that he chased him and beat him, Xu Zhen hugged Shen Yunhai beside him, Shen Yunhai thought they were playing a game, and giggled, Wang Cuixi was instantly happy again when he heard the laughter.

Liu Yongsheng talked with the people in the street office, and someone called the craftsmen who built the house to discuss how to fix it.

These two courtyards are one-entry courtyards. Although they are half as large as Shen's house, they are not too small. Judging from the layout of the house and the way the floor tiles are laid, the previous owner should be quite wealthy. It is said that he went overseas during the war. Later, it was managed by the sub-district office. It was rented for a short period of time, and then a small sub-district factory was opened in it. Because of a snowstorm, the house collapsed and injured workers, and the old antique machines that had been supporting it were broken and could not be repaired. The factory could not continue to operate. The yard has been abandoned ever since.

The walls of the courtyard are not secure anymore, and the house has to be demolished and rebuilt if it is to be completely repaired, which will take at least a year.

Liu Yongsheng said it was okay, and he was not in a hurry to move in, just take your time.

The price is cheap, and you can get a brand new yard for another 2000 yuan to rebuild, which is so worth it. Liu Yongsheng knows in his heart that he has been favored by relatives and friends, and he secretly remembers this love.

Meng Tao instructs Liu Jianli and Xu Yuting to tell the officer who brought them to buy the house to buy four of the seven or eight courtyards they have seen before.

You must know that these houses are currently under "special management". Only when someone leads them to buy them can they be bought cheaply.

Meng Tao looked around, this land, tsk tsk, will skyrocket in the future!
Xu Yuting asked stupidly, "What's the use of buying so many houses?"

"It's useful, one for each of you, and two for me." In the future, Brother Taurus will give him one when he has a child who comes to study in the capital.

"Don't we have a house here?"

Meng Tao glanced at him: "Parents don't separate families, but brothers can't live together forever, right? When Brother Yulin marries a wife and has a child, his wife may not be willing to live with you; the one you married The daughter-in-law may also have her own ideas, and you will have children in the future, and there will be more and more people, is one yard enough to live in?"

"This, so far away."

"Not far, within three to five years."

"..."

"Okay, listen to Xiao Huahua."

Liu Jianli said that he took the money from Meng Tao and dragged Xu Yuting to work.

When Liu Yongsheng knew it, he thought about it and nodded again and again: "Xiao Huahua is right, people, you have to look farther."
