Traversing the courtyard

Chapter 364 These Buildings Are Mine

At this time, He Yuzhu also read the old father-in-law's letter, and asked, "I was in good health before, why has my health deteriorated recently?"

Lou Xiaoe said wronged: "I don't know why my mother's health has deteriorated, and she still wants us to go over."

He Yuzhu sighed, it is so simple that there are still people guarding it thousands of miles away, and asked: "Then do you want to go?"

Lou Xiaoe also had some headaches. Her mother’s family was thousands of miles away. If Yi Weidong hadn’t risked his life to search for her, she didn’t know when she would be able to resume contact after the news was cut off. She also worried about the contact. Her mother was sick and saw her. , but I can't walk away, I can't leave He Yuzhu and take the child away, besides, the child is too young to stand the bumps.

Lou Xiaoe asked, "How about we all go? Will the uncle agree?"

He Yuzhu was surprised: "What did you say? Let me go too?"

Lou Xiaoe rolled her eyes: "Should I take the two children there by myself? Don't worry about it being so far away!"

He Yuzhu chuckled: "That's right, I can't bear to leave you."

"Death, you know how to torment me every day."

He Yuzhu laughed even louder: "I'm an old husband and wife, I'm still ashamed!"

"What are you laughing at, don't wake up the child. Take the footwashing water."

He Yuzhu took the footbath and mixed it with warm water and put it in front of the bed. After Lou Xiao'e had washed it, he added some hot water and then soaked his feet.

Lou Xiaoe tucked in the quilt for the child, and got into the bed herself. She couldn't be separated from He Yuzhu, and said, "You can tell me, do you want to go?"

He Yuzhu just smiled, poured out the footwashing water after drying himself, squeezed into the bed and said, "But I have never left the capital city, nor the rolling mill, and I have become the deputy director."

Lou Xiao'e said: "Didn't you read what the letter said? My brother and Wei Dong both became rich. They started a business together, built high-rise buildings, and produced bicycles. Wei Dong made more money. He lived in a big villa and started a company. How many people did he have?" Hundreds of people, and bought a lot of high-rise buildings."

He Yuzhu said impatiently: "Okay, no matter how I look at it, it's unreliable. How can Weidong make so much money? I don't want a penny from him no matter how much he has."

Lou Xiaoe said angrily: "Did I say I wanted Weidong's money? My dad said that I have a share of the family's money, and we won't be short of money by then."

The more Lou Xiaoe thought about it, the more angry she became. There were her relatives over there, and she wanted to visit them. She took He Yuzhu to visit her elderly parents.

After yelling, he turned his back to He Yuzhu angrily, thinking of his sick mother and crying silently.

He Yuzhu took a handkerchief and turned it to Lou Xiaoe to wipe it, and persuaded him: "I know you want to see your father-in-law, but now the child is still young and the old lady's health is not good enough, so you can expect us to take care of you. I can't bear to pat my butt and leave!"

Lou Xiao'e looked at little He Hai who was sleeping on the side. She only thought about He Yuzhu's side before, but now He Hai is too young and it is indeed inappropriate. After sighing, she stopped talking.

He Yuzhu persuaded: "Then let's ask Weidong tomorrow what's going on, and let's talk about it, okay?"

Lou Xiaoe also knows that this matter cannot be decided at once. How many people will choose to leave their hometown and travel thousands of miles after living for decades?
She stopped her tears and said, "Sleep, I'm not in the mood to serve you today."

The next morning, Yi Weidong slipped out after breakfast, went to his own house in Guanxiang, and put away all the baijiu in the basement. It would be better to store it there when he returned to Xiangjiang. It's over, it's really not easy to buy so many good wines.

After tidying up, it was not until the evening that a wild boar that was still alive in the space broke its front leg and put it on the back seat of the bicycle to ride home.

Along the way, he received countless envious looks. Occasionally, someone asked, Yi Weidong also had a reason. He caught it on the mountain by himself, and brought it home to eat as a matter of course without breaking the king's law.

Yi Weidong ostentatiously rushed back to the courtyard when it was dark, put his bicycle on one side, raised his hind legs and entered the courtyard, and shouted after entering the gate: "Xie Di, Xie Di."

Yan Jiedi ran out and shouted, "What are you yelling for?"

Only then did Yan Jiedi see a big wild boar on his shoulders and was still humming slightly, and asked in surprise, "Where did Brother Wei Dong get the wild boar?"

Yi Weidong smiled and said, "My bicycle is outside, push it in and lock it."

Yan Jiedi said: "Hurry up and put it down, find someone to carry it so you don't get tired."

"It's okay, I'll go in first."

Yan Jiedi went outside to push the bicycle on the ground. Yi Weidong didn't lower his voice just now. The sisters Xiaodang, the third master and the third mother all came out of the house, and Aunt Cai also came to ask what happened.

At this time, Yi Weidong of the Intermediate Court put the wild boar on the ground, called He Yuzhu out, and said, "Brother, let's kill it today, and we will share a share."

He Yuzhu hadn't left any meat before, so Yi Weidong had no choice but to get a wild boar for the New Year, so it wouldn't be obvious that he was secretly taking out wild boar.

At this time, wild boars are a big hazard, and you will not make mistakes if you beat them and eat them yourself.

He Yuzhu smiled innocently: "It's okay, the meat at home has never been enough, so don't worry about it now."

Lou Xiaoe also came out and said, "Weidong, you don't know. Since your brother became the leader, your thinking has improved a lot, and you don't bring leftovers home."

Yi Weidong didn't expect that He Yuzhu would do this. Think about it. Now that he is a leader, if he still brings things back, someone will report him for using his power for personal gain. This is different from being an official.

Said: "It's okay, sister-in-law, I'm the one to deal with meat!"

There were a lot of neighbors around, and Lou Xiaoe also told others on purpose. He Yuzhu became a leader, so he always avoided suspicion to avoid being gossip.

The uncle asked Yi Weidong how he caught the pig, and Yi Weidong had already made up the lyrics and fooled it.

The wild boar was still humming, and everyone had no doubts, they just praised Yi Weidong for his ability, but Yan Jiedi was furious, annoyed that Yi Weidong did such a dangerous thing.

There were so many people at this time, it was difficult for Yi Weidong to speak his mind, so he just smiled at Yan Jiedi and gave Yan Jiedi a comforting look.

After praising Yi Weidong, he also praised the third master for finding a capable and good son-in-law. Yi Weidong blushed when he heard that.

After tearing down a door and placing it on two benches, He Yuzhu and Yi Weidong carried the wild boar up, killed it with a knife, poured half of the pig's blood, poured hot water on it to scrape off the hair, and then disemboweled it.

Yi Weidong smiled and said, "It's too late today, everyone don't cook vegetables tomorrow night, come here and serve a bowl of butchered vegetables."

Everyone froze for a moment, and the second uncle asked, "Weidong, do you want to invite the whole courtyard to dinner?"

Yi Weidong said: "It's enough to kill pigs and vegetables, just bring a big bowl to each house to serve."

Yi Weidong doesn't have much time to live in the courtyard all year round, so he cooks pig dishes with offal and invites the whole courtyard to eat, and he can take care of things if he gets in touch with his relationship.

Earning hundreds of millions of assets a year, Yi Weidong didn't care about this for a long time. There are many pigs, donkeys, goats, chickens and ducks in the space, but they can't be taken out in large quantities.

The second uncle patted Yi Weidong on the shoulder and smiled, "Weidong is good, Lao Yan has found a good son-in-law."

Yi Weidong responded shyly, and when the outsiders left, He Yuzhu divided the pig's body into two, and Yi Weidong said, "Brother, give half to my sister, and half to Xie Di's house, is that okay?"

He Yuzhu smiled and said: "Of course it's okay. The third master did it himself, but you can't do it to them. Be more generous and don't let Si Ni be wronged in the middle."

"I know brother, I should raise them in the future."

The third master lived frugally to bring up his three sons and one daughter. Later, Yan Xiecheng's three brothers also ignored Yan Bugui, learned Yan Bugui's calculations to the bone, and did not provide for Yan Bugui. Filial piety, but Yi Weidong, as a son-in-law, couldn't do such a thing.

Yi Weidong cut a piece of pork in half, picked up his front legs and walked directly to the front yard.

Yan Jiedi came out of the kitchen of Da Ma's house, saw a large piece of the door panel missing and asked, "Brother Zhuzi, why is half of the door missing?"

He Yuzhu smiled and said, "Let Weidong send him to his father-in-law's house."

"Brother Wei Dong's old man?"

Yan Jiedi repeated it before turning her head around. Isn't Brother Wei Dong's father-in-law his own father?
Yan Jiedi blushed, and said to Lou Xiao'e who just came out: "Sister-in-law, Brother Zhu is bullying me."

Lou Xiao'e said with a smile: "Sini, go into the house and ignore them, I will take care of him at night."

Divide the meat into small pieces and bury it directly in the snowdrift, and then tidy up the bones. It was already past nine o'clock, and it was only then that we had dinner together.

The next morning, Yi Weidong took Yan Jiedi to the Summer Palace Park to play. When Yi Weidong took out the color camera, Yan Jiedi was very surprised:
"Brother Weidong, you said this can take color photos?"

"Yes, it's just that we can't wash it here, we have to take it to Xiangjiang."

Yan Jiedi blinked her big eyes, and asked curiously: "Xiangjiang! Then have you been there? How did you send the photos to be developed?"

Yi Weidong saw that there was no one around, and said in a low voice: "If there are acquaintances over there, those who pick me up by boat, that side is well developed."

"What kind? Is it a building taller than a department store?"

The department store in the capital is now a five-story building, and it is one of the few prosperous places in the capital.

"There are skyscrapers with [-] or [-] floors, and buildings with more than [-] floors are everywhere."

Yan Jiedi pestered Yi Weidong to talk about what he had seen and heard about Xiangjiang, skyscrapers, cars, all kinds of electrical appliances at home, big villas in the mountains, not to mention the unlimited daily necessities, everything would surprise Yan Jiedi .

Yi Weidong took Yan Jiedi's little hand and said, "Jiedi, do you want me to take you to see it?"

Yan Jiedi hesitated for a moment: "Wouldn't it cost a lot of money to go there once? We still have to save money to live, so we should not go."

Yi Weidong smiled and said: "Don't be like the third master, I have money so that we can live a good life."

Yan Jiedi patted Yi Weidong: "My father is frugal, otherwise I would starve to death."

Then he rolled his eyes and said, "Brother Wei Dong, I see that you spend money lavishly, so you need to save money in the future, you know?"

Yi Weidong smiled and said, "What are you saving money for? Buying milk powder?"

"Buying milk powder? What are you doing?"

"If you have a child, you need to be fed milk powder."

Yi Weidong looked down and landed on Yan Jiedi's green chest.

"Does the child need to be fed formula?"

I didn't know what it meant for a while, but following Yi Weidong's gaze, Yan Jiedi realized that Yi Weidong said that his scale was small, and that there would not be enough food for children in the future, so he had to buy extra milk powder.

He stared angrily, raised his hand and hit: "Big villain, who will give birth to you?"

Yi Weidong turned around to let Yan Jiedi vent his anger, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, Jiedi, you won't be able to spend all the money I earn in your lifetime."

"Pure bragging."

"."

If Yan Jiedi didn't believe it, there was nothing she could do. Even if she took out the photo and told her that the building was bought by herself, she would not believe it.

After playing around in the park in the morning, Yi Weidong took Yan Jiedi to the clothing section of the department store in the afternoon.

Although most people buy clothes made from fabrics, whole clothes can still be bought.

I bought a woolen coat and two coats for Yan Jiedi, and Yan Jiedi would not let me buy any more.

By the way, I bought two more bolts of fabric, and I divided them among several families later, so that the clothes would not be the right size.

In the evening, He Yuzhu stewed a large pot of pig-killing vegetables, added pork blood frozen tofu and vermicelli, Yi Weidong filled a large bowl early, took a few steamed buns and dragged Yan Jiedi to his house to spend the time between the two of them. up.

Opened two bottles of soda and soaked them in hot water for a while, before handing them over, Yan Jiedi tasted them and said, "It tastes weird anyway, but it tastes better than coffee."

Yi Weidong shrugged his shoulders: "This Coke tastes better when it's cold, so who told you to drink it only warm!"

After huddling together for dinner, Yi Weidong enjoyed the service of being fed.

Sending Yan Jiedi back to Yi Weidong was called into the room by He Yuzhu, Yi Weidong poured himself half a cup of tea and asked, "Brother, sister-in-law, what's the matter?"

Lou Xiaoe asked in a low voice: "Weidong, my brother said that you are in business together, and you invented the ballpoint pen, is it true?"

Yi Weidong smiled and said, "You're talking about this? Of course it's true."

Yi Weidong told him to wait a while, and returned to his room with a photo and a few ballpoint pens, and said, "Look at it, this is my invention."

I took a ballpoint pen and wrote a few words, then pointed to the house in the photo and said that I bought it myself.

He Yuzhu didn't have much idea about the cost of the construction, but was surprised that the area of ​​the villa was too large. Looking at the Qiu Yuxing Building in the central district, he said, "You said this building is yours?"

"This building is worth 2000 million yuan."

Yi Weidong pointed to the E-buy building and said, "I have already bought [-] buildings like this."

Then he found the building he built together with Lou Tongfu and said, "This was built by the real estate company I cooperated with Brother Lou."

Both He Yuzhu and Lou Xiao'e were dumbfounded. They didn't feel it when they didn't look at the photos but only the letters. Only when they saw the photos now would they be shocked.

He Yuzhu and his wife looked at each other, and they both saw the heat in each other's eyes. He Yuzhu thought about the fact that the child was still young, the old couple and the deaf old lady had to take care of them, so he sighed and said that it would be so easy to leave. .

Lou Xiaoe asked: "Didn't you say that you can't pass?"

Yi Weidong smiled and said: "It's okay, I have a boat, and I will go directly by sea."

Lou Xiaoe thought about it and said directly: "I want to go to see my parents, can I stay for a few days and then come back?"
