Chapter 40

After agreeing to the patrol team, Li Xuewu smiled and said to Director Wang: "Mother Wang, is there any news about my house?"

Director Wang stood up with a smile and walked back to his desk, took out a map and said, "It's done for you, isn't it just the four upside-down rooms, I've allocated them to you."

Director Wang pointed to the location of the big courtyard on the map and said, "You call me mom, don't say I don't miss you, see? This is the location of your courtyard. There used to be a west-spanning courtyard in your courtyard, which has the same layout as the courtyard."

Li Xuewu straightened up and said excitedly: "Mom, give it all to me?"

Director Wang rolled his eyes at him and said, "What beautiful things are you thinking about? Then the big yard is not good enough to be called grandma. I'm talking about the original inverted house and front yard of Xikuayuan. It used to be the open-air warehouse of the supply and marketing cooperative, which is no longer used. The three doors have been bricked up, and the courtyard wall has been re-partitioned, so the door does not open to this side."

Li Xuewu took the map and looked at it carefully. The courtyard is equivalent to the front yard where the Li family lives plus the courtyard of the inverted house.

Director Wang said with a smile: "It happens that you want a house, and you pay 200 yuan to the street, and I will put the yard in for you."

Li Xuewu said straightforwardly: "I want it, and I'll pay another 300. You can give me both the middle courtyard and the backyard."

Director Wang laughed and scolded: "Don't talk nonsense, I've already set aside to live in the master, the front yard is occupied by the supply and marketing cooperative, and I built the warehouse myself this year, otherwise it would be your turn."

Li Xuewu directly took out the money and put it on the table.

"The front yard is the front yard, 200 yuan is worth it"

Director Wang smiled and put the money into an envelope and wrote his name and location: "Hey, young people are quick to respond, either because of you or because I grew up watching them, I wouldn't give it to you."

Li Xuewu's face is thicker than the city wall, how can he let this be said on the ground?
"Who told you to be my mother? Mom, I'll go to your house to eat at night. Remember to buy vegetables."

After saying that, he left the house with the procedures written by Director Wang. Before going out, he didn't forget to turn his head and shout: "What I said is true! No need to buy meat!"

Li Xuewu didn't care about Director Wang scolding him from behind, he got in the car and rode home.

After entering the alley, I deliberately went to the courtyard next to the courtyard.

The south courtyard wall was opened again, and a large iron gate was closed and locked.

Li Xuewu took out the key given by Director Wang and opened the door. The big iron door made by the supply and marketing cooperative was quite honest, and there was a "dangdang" knock.

Pushing the car into the yard, I saw that it was bare, surrounded by high walls, and a barbed wire anti-theft net. It seemed that things here had been stolen.

The ground has been leveled, and there is still a room preserved near the gate of the original inverted house, which should be used for duty.

Li Xuewu pushed open the door of the inverted room, and the inside was quite clean. It seemed that the supply and marketing cooperative hadn't withdrawn the lease for a long time.

The layout of the inverted house is very simple. It is just a room, about 20 square meters, with all the window glass, which is okay, and the glass has not been removed.

Li Xuewu went out and looked around. It turned out that the foundation of the inverted house was flat, and some bricks, tiles, beams and wood left over from the demolition of the house were piled up in a large pile at the corner.

It’s okay, 200 yuan to buy a small courtyard of about 600 square meters, although I have to return favors.

Li Xuewu pushed the car out of the gate, locked it, and walked towards the courtyard.

As soon as I entered the second door, I saw the third master cleaning the car.

Li Xuewu took the bamboo shoots, and asked with a smile: "Third Master, you didn't go out all day today, did you clean the car all day?"

The third master turned his back to Li Xuewu, stood up and said, "Where is it, I came back early after no class in the afternoon, ouch! New bicycle! As expected of a cadre, I bought a car on the second day of work! Really awesome! "

Li Xuewu pushed the car and stopped by the window, he said, "The ticket given by the chief before I came back, besides, it's not as early as you bought it!"

After teasing with the third master, he entered the house.

Seeing Li Xuewu coming back, Liu Yin asked according to the words of the third master: "What bicycle? Are you tired from duty, and lie down for a while."

Li Xuewu shook his head while picking up his satchel and replied: "I'm not tired, I slept half the night, arrested people for half the night, oh yes, I bought a bicycle"

Liu Yin was surprised and said: "Arrest people on the first day, what? Bicycle? Where did you get the money and ticket?"

Li Xuewu is still the same excuse he thought of: "It was given by the chief before retiring from the army, and it is convenient to ride to work."

Liu Yin slapped him and said, "Why don't you discuss it with your family? You don't have any money left, tell mom if you need money."

Li Xuewu said with a smile: "Didn't my father separate from me?"

Liu Yin pinched him resentfully: "You're talking nonsense", and then went out to look at the bicycle, touching the handlebars and girders with her hands, and responded to the sour words of the third master.

Grandmother and grandma also went out to have a look, while Li Xuewu went down to the cellar to get a piece of pork weighing about 20 jin, cut up another piece of pork liver and heart, and packed it in a lunch box.

Seeing Liu Yin and grandma come back, she said, "Mom, the street gave me the inverted house and the area beyond the screen door. I also bought a courtyard in the west courtyard for 200 yuan."

Liu Yin was shocked when she heard Li Xuewu's words: "You really want to get separated?"

Li Xuewu said with a smile: "What if I don't go out separately? My elder brother is taking care of the elderly. I can still get married at home. Can I live there?"

Liu Yin burst into tears, Li Xuewu hurriedly stepped forward to hug his mother, and comforted him: "It's not that I'm out of the capital, I'm right in front of your eyes, why are you still crying?"

Liu Yin said with tears in her eyes: "I am both happy and sad to see that you have grown up and established households."

Mrs. Li went back to the back room with her hands behind her back, and she said as she walked, "I can't help it, the chicken flew up the wall, hey!"

Liu Yin knew that the old lady was comforting herself, and Li Shun's sons also lived in various places.

Liu Yin cried and said, "Then I'll clean it up for you."

Li Xuewu didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "What are you going to clean up? There is no place to stand in the inverted room. They are all belongings of the residents in the courtyard. You have to tell them to move them away. Besides, I still want to renovate them. I have to wait a few days. "

Liu Yin nodded and said, "Okay, why use the courtyard?"

Li Xuewu said: "I plan to expand the screen door to the outside. The inner wall is connected with the west courtyard. There is a gate in the west courtyard. In the future, the carriages and horses will be put in the west courtyard. There is also an inverted room in the west courtyard. Let grandma and Li Xue live there."

At this time, the grandma entered the house, and said with a smile: "Don't let your grandma and Xiaoxue bother you, I'll live in the past, the compound over there is bigger than here, and it's just right for feeding the horses."

Liu Yin said angrily, "Dad, why are you joining in the fun?"

Grandma waved her hand and said: "Learning martial arts is very good. To learn martial arts, you will take care of grandma. Grandma only has carriages and horses. How about giving them to you?"

Grandma used to be a carpenter in a furniture factory outside Dongzhimen, and was granted urban household registration in 54.

But grandma is a rural person, the only child in the family, and has to take care of the elderly who are in poor health. The dormitory in the city cannot accommodate them, so grandma lives in the country with grandma.

The two old men have worked hard all their lives, and this carriage and horse are all they need.

Li Xuewu looked at his grandmother's eyes, and knew that his grandmother was not used to living here, and his son-in-law's house was not spacious, so he felt a little sorry.

"That's a good relationship, that's a good deal, the big green horse and the carriage are mine, and I will give you a pension, so don't go back on your word!" Li Xuewu said with a smile.
