passionate youth

Chapter 95

"What a handsome boy."

Director Feng came out from behind the desk, smiled and reached out to shake Jiang Pingan's hand.

"No wonder Xiuzhen praised you as rare in the sky and unparalleled in the earth. This girl has a good eye!"

Chen Xiuzhen blushed, stretched out her hand to hold her arm, and said coquettishly and shyly, "Aunt Feng..."

"It's all right, I won't make fun of you." Director Feng shook his head and chuckled, then said to Jiang Ping'an:
"It's a coincidence that you came today. If you were a day later, the house would have been divided into two rooms."

"By the way, before distributing the house, let me ask you first, is your household registration registered with the work unit, or is it independent?
Jiang Ping'an smiled and said, "I want to settle down on the street."

"Individual account will be much more convenient in the future, please help Aunt Feng to do it together."

Director Feng nodded and said, "Okay, then let's look at the house first, then settle down, and finally apply for food certificates and non-staple food certificates."

The local industry in the capital has the so-called "one black and one white".

The black refers to the steel factory in the west, and the white refers to the textile factory!

With the establishment of the textile factory, the dormitories of the first factory, the second factory and the third factory were lined up from east to west.

The south of the road is the factory area, and the north of the road is the living area.

The collective dormitory for female workers is a three-story building, and the housing quality is very good.

Surrounded by trees, walking on the path is like being in a garden.

Housing is tight these days.

Tongzilou is not yet developed, and most of them are large courtyards and row houses.

Buildings like textile factories are relatively rare.

Along the way, Director Feng introduced the surrounding layout and some precautions.

When passing by a row of ovaries, Jiang Ping'an took a special look and found that the conditions inside were very poor.

These days, most people in the capital live in row houses, each of which is about [-] to [-] square meters.

Wanting to have an independent kitchen, toilet and other living facilities is simply a luxury.

Many people use "sunshine for kitchen" and build small kitchens that block their sunny front windows.

But because it is difficult to see the sun all day long, the "dark and greasy" interior is a true portrayal of the row of ovaries.

Most of the first households at the door of this kind of house are public toilets with poor sanitation.

In summer, it is stinky, and there are "buzzing" mosquitoes and flies flying everywhere.

The old neighbors call this "going home with the smell".

The rows of ovaries are deep and short, and you can basically see the scattered bedding on the bed as soon as you open the door, and you can see the interior at a glance.

Privacy is out of the question.

But these days people just need to live in something, and there is no concept of a living room.

There is no place to entertain guests at home, so we can only set up a small square table in the corner, and sit on a small bench or bed with the guests to have a chat...

The old warehouse on the street is independent, with three green brick houses.

There is a flat land of two or three mu in front, with seven or eight pomegranate trees planted on the edge.

"Everything is good living here, but it's a bit noisy." Feng Xuelan said with a smile.

"The workers nearby are off work, and the students are off school, and they all like to come here to play."

Jiang Ping'an smiled and said, "It's better to be lively, I like lively the most."

The restored house is in good condition, with new glass windows and wooden doors, and the tiles on the roof have been overhauled.

The tap water is brought under the eaves of Xitou, and a sink and a laundry table are built on the side, so it is convenient to get water.

The three rooms were all locked. Feng Xuelan took the key and opened the doors one by one for Jiang Ping'an to see.

Inside, as Chen Xiuzhen said, every room was empty except for the kang.

On the contrary, the walls were plastered and the floor was covered with cement, which looked neat.

"How is it? If you are satisfied, then go back to the street to complete the formalities." Feng Xuelan asked with a smile.

"This kind of house is the only one in the street. Even if Xiuzhen pesters me again, I can't find a better one."

"And there are still a lot of people staring at it. It will change later, and the earlier it is implemented, the earlier it will be at ease."

Chen Xiuzhen held Feng Xuelan's arm and said with a smile, "Thank you, Aunt Feng, I will definitely respect you more in the future."

"By the way, I forgot to tell Aunt Feng that the hen I gave you last year was given to me safely."

When Feng Xuelan heard this, she looked at Jiang Ping'an more gently.

"The house is very nice, please trouble Aunt Feng." Jiang Pingan said with a satisfied smile.

To be able to allocate and rent such a house is really hard to find with a lantern, and it depends entirely on luck.

Obviously, Jiang Ping'an was lucky, and of course Chen Xiuzhen's hard work was indispensable.

After the matter was settled, the three returned to the street office, and Feng Xuelan led Jiang Pingan to go through various procedures.

Jiang Ping'an was well prepared, the procedures were complete, and Feng Xuelan was with him, giving the green light all the way.

In less than half a day, all the procedures were completed.

Jiang Ping'an was assigned a room, rented two rooms, settled down, and bought food and non-staple food books.

It was almost noon, Feng Xuelan invited Chen Xiuzhen and Jiang Pingan to her house for dinner, and they didn't refuse.

If the relationship is right, you don't need to be polite, but if you are polite, you will look outside. If the relationship is not right, you must wink.

After all, no one is rich in food these days.

Obviously, the relationship between Chen Xiuzhen and Feng Xuelan was really good.

If it wasn't for the relationship, Jiang Ping'an wouldn't be in the three rooms.

in the afternoon.

Jiang Ping'an and Chen Xiuzhen went to the old furniture market together and bought some old furniture.

Not to mention, many of the old furniture of this era are antiques, but unfortunately Jiang Ping'an doesn't understand, and neither does Chen Xiuzhen.

But the furniture wasn't cheap either.

Jiang Ping'an kept a low profile and considered the future troubles, so he only bought some durable furniture.

There are three rooms, and there is a lot of furniture to buy. Fortunately, there is no ticket. The money was paid in advance by Chen Xiuzhen. It cost more than 300, which is really not cheap.

You can pay for the purchased furniture and let the market send it to your home.

A lot of money was spent, and Jiang Ping'an was not stingy with the small money.

After buying the furniture, Jiang Ping'an and Chen Xiuzhen went to buy some pots and pans, daily necessities, etc.

I went to the grain store to buy grain. There was no stove at home, so I bought a coal stove and briquettes, and I used a bicycle to pull them.

Chen Xiuzhen helped push the bicycle, and Jiang Ping'an was still carrying all kinds of miscellaneous things.

When he got home, Jiang Ping'an opened the door just as the furniture deliverer arrived, and asked the workers to help carry them into the house and arrange them.

Neighbors who are not working at home also came to help and were very enthusiastic.

There are three rooms, Jiang Ping'an intends to use the middle one as the living room.

The room next to the sink is used as the kitchen and dining room. Of course there are guests, and the kang can also be used for people.

And he himself usually lives in the room at the east end, where the bedroom and the study are combined into one.

After the furniture was arranged, the workers left, and Chen Xiuzhen took a few neighbors to clean the house again.

After the inside and outside were put back together, it was already evening, the workers were off work, and the students were out of school.

Sure enough, Feng Xuelan was right, and the front of the house suddenly became lively.

"I'm going back first, remember to come to me when you have time." In the living room, Chen Xiuzhen whispered to Jiang Ping'an.

It was getting late, and it would be inconvenient for her to stay here any longer.

Jiang Pingan nodded, and said softly, "I'll trouble you to run around today, are you exhausted?"

"Fortunately, it's quite a sense of accomplishment to see the orderly arrangement of this empty house."

Jiang Pingan smiled, leaned forward and gave her a bite, and said:
"I'm going back to the countryside tomorrow, and I'll look for you when I come back."

"Are you going to my dad's place?" Chen Xiuzhen worried.

She also knew about Chen Zezhong's invitation to Jiang Ping'an to help out in the commune.

Now that Jiang Ping'an chose the factory, Chen Zezhong would probably be a little unhappy.

Jiang Pingan nodded and said, "I'm definitely going. I didn't promise Uncle Chen, so I can't apologize to him?"

"Speak well, don't get stuck." Chen Xiuzhen urged.

Jiang Ping'an laughed and said, "Don't worry, there won't be trouble."

"Going to work in the factory is something I have thought about carefully, and I will patiently explain it to Uncle Chen."
