I am many years in the courtyard
Chapter 278, Everyone's Happy
Everyone's eyes were on him, and he smiled for many years.
Picking up a piece of meat and putting it in his own bowl, he said lightly:
"Mom, you probably forgot. I said one thing last time. Take your time. Don't rush now."
Zhou Hongmei was not very satisfied with this answer, and asked again unwillingly:
"Then your third brother and fourth brother must have a means of making a living, right? You can't just sit around doing nothing every day?"
Obviously, she cared enough for Xu Bainian and the two brothers.
Everyone understands the reason, so I didn't say anything for many years.
He just patiently explained to Zhou Hongmei that he had to let his third and fourth brothers settle down in the city first.
At the same time, give him some time to think about how to arrange for the two brothers.
After all, it is hard to find a job. So many people were repatriated during the downsizing.
Looking for a job in this special period, you must be more cautious.
Xu Bainian and the two brothers didn't dare to say anything, they just listened silently.
They can clearly feel the love and care from Zhou Hongmei.
The two brothers also understood what they had said for many years. After all, for them, they were not familiar with the place in the capital. Even if they were given a job right now, they might not be able to get used to it.
People who have always faced the loess and their backs to the sky, there are really too few jobs suitable for them.
Therefore, there is no way to say this for many years.
Seeing this saying for many years, although Zhou Hongmei didn't understand it very well, she could only nod her head in acquiescence.
After all, talking for many years is very important.
If it weren't for the urgent desire to care more about the two brothers Xu Baibai and make up for the love lost for more than 20 years, Zhou Hongmei would not have been asking so many years.
This matter is for the time being, everyone continues to eat and drink.
For Xu Bainian and the others, today's meal is the second most sumptuous meal they have eaten in the past two years.
The first time was the family dinner in No. 95 courtyard last time.
And at the end of [-], that is, the Spring Festival of [-], it wasn't long before the big pot meal started.
During the Spring Festival of that year, Yaojiaba also slaughtered pigs and sheep, and the New Year's Eve dinner was very prosperous.
Anyway, at that time, everyone was full of oil.
In fact, it's not just Yaojiaba like them, Qinjiagou at that time, and the production teams such as President Feng Guoqiang and President Li Wanwan who have been there for many years.
The same goes for their New Year's Eve dinner, which is very rich.
For many years, I still remember that time, Feng Guoqiang and his production team clearly had [-] pigs, but they only sold five pigs to many years.
Excluding the five pigs ordered by the village, Feng Guoqiang and his production team had eight pigs left.
If I remember correctly, Feng Guoqiang and his production team directly killed these eight pigs to celebrate the New Year.
After lunch, Many Nian drove the car and took Xu Bainian and his brothers to No. 95 Courtyard.
The two sisters of Xiaodoubao are going to pester their father again, and want to take a car.
For such a short distance, it is really dumbfounding to have to take a car.
Fan Zhaodi and Hu Meifeng also hurried to No. 95 yard to wait.
Because until this time, the two of them didn't know how the two houses were allocated for many years.
When I asked questions at lunch just now, either the subject was changed, or I hadn't answered the question for many years.
From the looks of it, it is impossible for the eldest and second child's family to divide the two houses.
In other words, the purpose of Hu Meifeng and Fan Zhaodi is actually the second floor.
Not only because of the large number of rooms, but also because of the comfort of living.
The jeep was parked at the gate of No. 95 courtyard, and for many years, he stepped into the courtyard with Xiaodoubao and Xiaotuanzi.
Compared with driving, Xu Bainian and Yao Chunxi arrived at the gate of the courtyard earlier.
Zhou Hongmei, Qin Huairu, and the three daughters-in-law of Uncle Tang's family also all came to the gate of the courtyard, because walking was faster than driving.
There is no way, Beihe Hutong is very close to No. 95 Courtyard, just a few steps away.
In addition, when driving, Xiaomei and Xiaoqian were holding the two little guys, Xiaodoubao, and they wanted to play around, driving at a slower speed than a turtle.
As for the luggage on the car, Xu Bainian and the others had already carried it in, and followed Zhou Hongmei.
However, after coming in for many years, Hu Meifeng and Fan Zhaodi started arguing with Zhou Hongmei.
The neighbors next to him were all watching the play, even Aunt Liu, the deaf old lady in the backyard, and Xu Damao's daughter-in-law Huang Xiaohua also came to the front yard to watch the play.
Today's melon is explosive enough, it must be delicious.
Seeing this situation, Xiaomei and Xiaoqian had no choice but to hold the child for many years, but the child was unwilling to let go of his little hand, so he had to carry him to the center of the field.
"Sister-in-law and second sister-in-law, don't stop me. What's the matter with blocking the door? It's a joke for no reason."
As soon as he opened his mouth, Hu Meifeng and Fan Zhaodi began to speak aggrievedly.
Speak feelings, reason, and present facts.
The first two are easy to understand, and the facts behind it are actually a list of their help to the little family for many years in the past two years.
To be honest, it's okay not to mention these things, but when I mention them, I feel a little disgusted with these two sister-in-laws for many years.
Although Xiaoqian, Xiaoman and Xiaodong really helped a lot, they haven't treated them badly for many years.
Hu Meifeng's two sisters-in-law said this today, making it seem like he has been whoring for nothing for many years.
However, disgust is disgust, who made these two his sister-in-law and second sister-in-law.
Very helpless!
People, when faced with interests, will always be dazzled, and become unscrupulous in doing things.
In normal times, Hu Meifeng, who is just a lazy person, would never be involved in such things at all.
For many years, I can guarantee that Fan Zhaodi must have discussed this matter with Hu Meifeng.
"Okay, sister-in-law and sister-in-law, you all stop talking and get out of the way for me!"
Suddenly, Many Years lowered his face and said expressionlessly.
When the two sisters-in-law saw it, they trembled all over and dared not speak.
Anyway, he has been a leader for many years, and when he puts on this posture, he is still very majestic.
So, Xu Bainian moved his things into the old Xu's room, and the fourth Xu Qiannian also moved his things into the study in the inverted room.
"Mom, I'm going to buy some furniture with my third and fourth brothers later, so you can come with me."
Zhou Hongmei waved her hand when she heard the words, and said bluntly that she would not go.
"That's fine, we'll be fast anyway."
According to the normal situation, if you add furniture, beds, wardrobes, etc. to Zhou Hongmei, you must ask her opinion.
It's just that the elderly don't have any requirements for these, as long as they are strong and durable, oh, and the most important thing is that they are cheap.
With reference to these, when buying furniture, it is easy.
At this time, Hu Meifeng and Fan Zhaodi were still watching eagerly. Old Xu's room should be used by the third child.
Then the small second floor of the middle courtyard must have been given to the old man?
Or do they need their boss and second child to compete with each other?
The two sisters-in-law are not sure what is going on now, and they are just worried.
Soon, Hu Meifeng pulled the two sisters Xu Xiaoqian and Xu Xiaoman aside and whispered something.
Then the two sisters ran to hold each other for many years, whispering in his ear.
The two sisters really want to take the car, and Xiaodoubao and Xiaotuanzi will definitely take the car later, so isn't it normal for the two sisters to help take care of the children?
For many years, I have naturally known the two sisters' careful thoughts. I am afraid that it is not as simple as taking a car, but they want to ask clearly about the allocation of houses on the second floor.
Nowadays, there are more houses in the old Xu's family, so everyone's thoughts have become more complicated.
Xiaoqian was agreed, and she will get in the car with her later to help take care of the children.
Fan Zhaodi also saw this scene, but she didn't know what Hu Meifeng wanted to do, so she could only be anxious.
Soon, she saw Xu Xiaoqian getting into the jeep, Xiaodoubao and Xiaotuanzi were in Xiaoqian's arms, and Xiaoqian was in a hurry.
This year Xu Xiaoqian is already 11 years old, and she is also a little girl.
Although they have strength, but they can't stand Xiaodoubao. The two sisters are really naughty and active. One-on-two is not so easy to take care of.
"Xiaodong, get in the car quickly."
Seeing this scene, Fan Zhaodi gritted her teeth with hatred, but she didn't care about arguing with Hu Meifeng, and hurriedly pushed Xu Weidong into the car.
The little guy was very confused. He was drooling at the jeep just now, why did he get in the car the next moment?
The two brothers Xu Bainian and Xu Qiannian were in the back row, and they hurriedly gave way to Xu Weidong.
The two brothers are honest and friendly, they always smile and have a friendly and reserved attitude when they see everyone, and they will not easily offend anyone.
It's not that the two of them don't have principles or something else, but that they don't dare to have their own opinions at all.
After being away from Lao Xu and Zhou Hongmei for more than 20 years, things have changed.
Even if they knew that the two sister-in-laws, Hu Meifeng and Fan Zhaodi, might be planning something, something that would even harm their interests.
They can't and can't do anything.
We can only wait for many years to make up our minds. After all, in this family, the most influential people have been speaking for many years. Even Lao Xu and Zhou Hongmei have to listen to opinions for many years.
Qin Huairu saw that Xu Weidong also got into the car, and was speechless. Before she could speak, Zhou Hongmei asked Xu Weidong to get off.
The little guy didn't dare to be disobedient, so he could only obediently come down.
Fan Zhaodi's face was ugly, but at this time, she had already come to the driving seat for many years, glanced at it expressionlessly, then got in the car, drove the car and left.
He just asked for a leave of absence to move to deal with his third and fourth brothers' affairs. As a result, so many things happened.
It really left him speechless.
"It's better to train, at least, when training, there are not so many trivial things."
Indeed, these things that happened at home seemed to him to be a big deal.
Preoccupied!
After driving away for many years, I suddenly seemed to understand something. It seemed that it was because of the more than 300 yuan owed to him by the boss and the second family.
This amount of money is not a lot to him.
But in the eyes of the eldest Xu Danian and the second eldest Xu Niannian, this is definitely a huge sum of money that can crush them both.
"No, it seems that I have to find a way."
As the saying goes, do not suffer from widowhood but suffer from inequity.
For children born to the same parents, the family has been the best for many years, leaving other brothers and sisters far behind.
The relatives of Uncle Tang's family are alright, they are considered outsiders, and Xu Simmei has also married out, belonging to another family's wife.
But Xu Danian and his brothers are different.
After a long time, their family still has an income of 33 yuan, so it will undoubtedly be even more difficult to pay off the debt of more than 300 yuan.
For many years, it was impossible to directly waive the money to his two brothers, because this was not helping them, but harming them.
After all, the more than 300 yuan also included the money for the medicine to treat Lao Xu's rectal cancer.
The consequences of directly canceling this debt must be serious.
Besides, with this debt, the two elder brothers can keep themselves safe and not mess around.
As the saying goes, having both ability and political integrity, wealth must be coordinated.
If you don't have such a big foot, you can't wear such a big shoe.
But how to think about it, I haven't figured it out for many years.
After making a fuss, Lao Xu, the head of the family, is really incompetent, and he, the fifth child, has to deal with everything.
"However, it seems that I have lived two lifetimes. Counting it, I must be worse than Lao Xu."
Thinking about it this way, I suddenly thought about it after many years, and I laughed too.
Xiaodoubao next to her was stretching out her little hand, wanting to be hugged by her father, but Xiaoqian hugged her back.
"Xiao Dou Bao, don't disturb your father, your father is driving."
After playing around, they soon arrived at their destination.
This is a furniture store near Wangfujing. For many years, I plan to buy furniture from my old acquaintance, Wang Deheng.
"Hey, isn't this Comrade Xu? Long time no see. Why are you free to come to my place today?"
We haven't seen each other for almost two years. After walking into the shopping mall for many years, Wang Deheng saw it, but immediately called out.
As a result, I have to feel for many years that every industry has talents.
It is estimated that Wang Deheng must have been a sales talent in the past, and his memorization of the appearance of customers has been deeply rooted in his bones, which is a subconscious behavior.
After all, Ji Chungeng introduced him as a "big customer" for many years, and he bought a lot of furniture from their mall back then.
"Comrade Wang, long time no see. I just passed by here, so I came in to have a look."
After holding two children for many years, they greeted each other with a smile.
Xu Bainian and the two brothers were looking at everything in front of them curiously. As expected of the capital city, it was dazzling.
Soon after exchanging pleasantries, Wang Deheng led the way forthrightly and courteously after learning of his intentions for many years.
A group of people came to the warehouse again, and there was a lot of rosewood furniture piled up inside.
It had been emptied many years ago, but now that two years have passed, it seems that everything has returned to the original point.
That's nothing to say, I have to choose and choose for many years.
After all, there are so many rooms in Beihe Hutong, all of which are empty, which makes people anxious.
Let's take advantage of today's leave and solve this problem once and for all.
It took more than two hours to finally settle these things.
All the furniture was pulled back by the cart master waiting outside the door.
After arriving home, Zhou Hongmei led the women's army to help clean the furniture inside and out, making it very clean.
There is a well in the courtyard of the inner house, so there is no shortage of water.
The only trouble is, it's not that convenient anymore.
After all, taking water from a well and taking water from a tap are completely different experiences.
However, the matter of the faucet can only be pushed back.
In the space, there are still a lot of steel fragments brought back from Guitou Mountain.
The base under Guitou Mountain was completely buried due to the explosion.
But many places in the base are made of reinforced concrete, as well as cars, steel plates, etc. These are all very good raw materials.
For many years, I thought about taking some time to go to the rolling mill and ask the people in the rolling mill if they could process the steel.
What he needs is a water pipe, so it must be no problem to exchange it with scrap iron?
As for the procedures and letters of introduction, for many years, it was not a problem at all.
Just a few water pipes of about ten meters long, with a total length of less than 200 meters, how much scrap iron can it cost?
At that time in [-], steelmaking in the whole country would have a huge demand for steel.
However, this year is relatively special. Everyone's eyes are on food, not steel.
It will definitely be different.
"Let's take some time to deal with it next time. I have already taken two vacations in the recent period. If I ask for another vacation, Team Zhao will probably go crazy."
Sitting in the yard, watching Xiaodoubao and Xiaotuanzi playing for many years, I think so.
"Three, fifth brother, let's go back first."
As the sun was approaching, Xu Simei brought Jiang Xiuer's three siblings over to bid farewell to many years.
"Why do you go back? Eat at home later, by the way, that kid Jiang Dongyang is almost off work, right? You go back and bring him here."
Although there was also a family banquet at noon, the three of them, Lao Xu, the boss, and the second father and son, were not there, so it was not a happy reunion.
Plus last time, Xu Simai's family didn't come over either.
It's rare that everyone is together today, so we just have a meal together.
It can be regarded as a celebration of family reunion and housewarming.
"This..." Xu Simi looked embarrassed, but she was still very moved, so she could eat meat if she stayed.
But she always took advantage of it for many years, and she felt very sorry for being a younger sister.
"What is this? I think the factory should be off work. You should go back first. Remember to bring me back."
She hadn't been given a chance for many years, so she had no choice but to agree.
Jiang Xiuer and the others jumped up excitedly, "Thank you uncle!"
Here, some eat and some play, which child does not like to stay here?
Anyway, all the children of the old Xu family are here.
Children like Xiaoman and Xiaodong, who used to like to go out to play, haven't gone out in the past few days.
What kind of friends are you looking for? Isn't it nice to stay at Uncle Wu's house?
Time passed slowly, and the evening came soon, and Lao Xu also came back.
There were also two brothers, Xu Danian and Xu Niannian, who didn't return to No. 95 courtyard, and came directly to Beihe Hutong.
The whole family is finally reunited.
The three daughters-in-law of Uncle Tang's family left in the evening.
Although they are thick-skinned, they have finally eaten a meal, and they are too embarrassed to stay thick-skinned for dinner.
There are many people in the family, not counting Xu Simi's family of five, the current population of the old Xu's family has reached 21.
In the future, when Yao Chunxi also blossoms and Xu Qiannian finds a wife, then the population of the old Xu family will rise to another level.
26 people ate together, except for the two little guys, Xiaobudian and Baidoufu, there were also 24 people.
So we eat together at three tables, eight people per table, of course, one table for adults, children and women.
Old Xu, who was sitting on the main seat, with a shiny face, raised his wine glass, and said to the five brothers for many years:
"From now on, you five brothers must unite and love each other, don't quarrel, let alone fight, discuss everything carefully, and don't hurt your peace."
"The most important thing is to spread the branches and leaves. I hope the population of my family can break through 40, or even [-] people."
You can still listen to the previous words, but the latter words immediately made many years dumbfounded.
Xu Simei's family is definitely not counted, and Xu Wumei is also going to marry, so the whole family is only 20 people.
Breaking through from 20 people to 30 people is barely achievable.
40 people?
This is very scary!
Hu Meifeng, Fan Zhaodi, Yao Chunxi, and Qin Huairu, the four sisters-in-law, one counted as the other, all blushed and bowed their heads to cook.
Because what Old Xu said seemed to be for them.
Zhou Hongmei smiled and praised in a low voice when she heard the words:
"I think what your father said is right, I think back then."
Well, she thought about the emotion she had at the beginning, before others said anything, her eyes turned red first.
Mainly because they immediately thought of Xu Bainian and his two brothers, and the other three children who would never come back.
But Hu Meifeng and the others panicked when they saw Zhou Hongmei's sad look.
Because they thought Zhou Hongmei was blaming them for their inaction.
After all, compared to Zhou Hongmei who had given birth to ten children, Hu Meifeng and her four sisters-in-law were all unqualified.
Qin Huairu is the most powerful. She only has two children now, but she also has four children.
However, the gap between this and Zhou Hongmei is not even a little bit.
Today is an era when there are more people and more power. This sentence ran through the entire 70s, 80s and [-]s. It was rarely mentioned until the [-]s.
The table of women was in a hurry, so Lao Xu and the others hurriedly asked what was going on?
The table for the child was led by Xiaomei, and the three tables were all very close to each other, so they soon knew what was going on.
The topic of spreading branches and leaves will soon pass.
After all, it is not suitable to continue the discussion.
Anyway, they are still very young. Hu Meifeng, the oldest, is not yet 30 this year, so don't worry.
Besides, she has been a Chinese medicine doctor for many years, and there is a miracle doctor standing behind her, so it doesn't matter much if she is an advanced mother.
In fact, if you think about it carefully, when Zhou Hongmei gave birth to Xu Wumei, she was over 40 years old, wouldn't it be the same?
Not to mention that women in this era are indeed very physically fit.
The topic quickly shifted to the issue of house allocation.
As soon as this topic started, Old Xu suddenly said:
"Old five, I've been thinking about it, or move here to live with your mother, what do you think?"
The atmosphere at the table suddenly became a little strange.
The boss and the second child all concentrated their attention. No matter how delicious the braised pork in front of them was, they seemed to lose interest.
Hu Meifeng and Fan Zhaodi at the next table also pricked up their ears and listened carefully.
Such a silent and well-behaved appearance is really rare.
No one said anything, and everyone waited many years for a response.
Many years smiled, picked up a piece of cabbage and put it in the bowl, but didn't eat it.
"Father, if you move here to live with us, it will be fine. From now on, I will take care of you and mom. That's fine."
"Now Dad, you still have a job, so you don't need any money from our five brothers. Even in the future, after you retire, you will still have a pension, so it's not a big problem."
"But what about Xiaomei? There is also the fourth brother's marriage, what are you going to do?"
Everyone heard the words, but they didn't think there was any surprise.
After all, he has been a leader for many years, a dual-career family, and Lao Xu has his own salary, so there is absolutely no problem in supporting the elderly.
Moreover, as a leader, you must lead by example, and you must not refuse to support the elderly.
Otherwise, you will lose your virtue and be cast aside by others.
But the questions that have been raised over the years are also extremely acute.
Xiaomei, do you want to move here?
If not, does she cook and eat by herself?
Or did she continue to live with the second child's family?
This is definitely not possible!
Xiaomei herself guessed that she would be the first to refuse.
After all, if she stayed at the second brother's house for dinner, wouldn't she be wronged to death?
The second is Xu Qiannian's marriage, which is not a simple matter.
First of all, he still needs to take care of his body. After about a year, he can have sex.
In other words, even if he gets married in the short term, it's useless.
Fan Zhaodi should be the first to say:
"Fifth Uncle, I'm afraid it's wrong to do this? After all, Dad has been living with our family all the time. If we move here, what should we do?"
After many years of silence, Zhou Hongmei has already spoken.
"What should we do? We two old guys want to live a good life, but do you agree? You are really unfilial!"
This is a bit of a spine.
The second child hurriedly held down Fan Zhaodi, stood up and apologized.
The words are a bit heavy, but the truth is correct.
After all, Lao Xu and Zhou Hongmei can go to whichever son's house they want to live in.
Fan Zhaodi was very angry, but she had no choice but to sit silently, weeping secretly.
"Xiaodoubao, what are you looking at? Are you full?"
Taking a glance, I saw Xiaodoubao looking around for many years, because brother Xiaodong next to her had left, so she was looking for him.
Xu Weidong's little guy naturally came to his mother's side to comfort his mother.
Although he is still young, he is still very smart.
Although he didn't quite understand why his mother was angry, all he could do was comfort his mother.
When Xiaodoubao heard this, she immediately opened her little hands to her father to hug her.
"Eat first, and Dad will take you to play after eating."
Many Nian smiled, walked over and touched the little heads of the two children, filled a bowl of rice, and returned to his seat.
Then he said:
"Let's eat first, everyone. After eating, we will discuss the allocation of the house."
What he said was a final word.
In this case, everyone had to eat first, and the topic of conversation was to try to be as happy as possible.
During the whole meal, the two brothers Xu Bainian were the quietest. Yao Chunxi even chatted with Zhou Hongmei and the others, but the two brothers never said a word.
After dinner, Zhou Hongmei and the others cleaned up the dishes, and the female comrades were more diligent than each other.
Only Qin Huairu was pressed on the seat, and everyone just let her take care of the baby, and she didn't need to clean up the table.
But in fact, Xiaodoubao and the others played with Jiang Xiuer and the others. The little one was hugged for many years, and Bai Doufu was hugged by Old Xu. Where does Qin Huairu need to take care of the children?
The four of them, Hu Meifeng, Fan Zhaodi, Yao Chunxi, and Xu Simei, worked the hardest, and even Xiaomei couldn't get a job.
The two children, Xiaoqian and Xiaoman, could only stand aside, watching the adults do housework in a daze.
Especially Yao Chunxi, who scrubbed the table, really made the table very clean.
After everything was done, the family sat in the middle of the north room and had a meeting.
Jiang Dongyang and his family are just bystanders, or they can be said to be witnesses. Anyway, what happened today has little to do with their family.
This time, I haven't given everyone a chance to speak up for many years, so I just decided on the matter.
"Father wants to move here to live with me. I agree very much. Big brother, second brother, third brother and fourth brother, do you have any objections?"
Don't dare to say if you have an opinion!
Besides, if Lao Xu is really allowed to live in No. 95 courtyard, Lao Xu will probably explode.
Disputes and quarrels will be unavoidable at that time, so don't try to settle this matter today.
Seeing that Xu Nian hadn't said a word, Fan Zhaodi cursed inwardly: A man who is not successful enough!
"Well, since that's the case, then Dad's house will be vacant."
"I'm on the second floor of the middle courtyard of No. 95 courtyard, and I'll give it up to the elders, but, brother, should you give up your house in the backyard?"
Hearing the words of many years, Xu Danian was overjoyed immediately, and asked with trembling lips, "Give it to me?"
That's a small second floor, the guest room on the first floor, the master bedroom and the small room on the second floor, there are three rooms in total, and there is a living room, rounding it up to four rooms.
And there are living facilities such as water pipes on the second floor, which are very convenient.
Hu Meifeng was so happy that she didn't know what to say.
so happy.
"Thank you Uncle Fifth, we can give up the house in the backyard, no problem, I agreed for my man."
Although she was lazy, she had a quick mouth and a quick mind, so she agreed immediately.
The two sisters, Xiaoqian and Xiaoman, were also very happy, because this meant that the two of them might share a room with each other.
After all, there are only three children in their family, Xu Xiaoxin is only one year and one month old, and their mother has another child in her womb, but she is only four months old now.
Therefore, the master bedroom on the second floor is where their parents live. Xu Xiaoxin is only one year old, so she must also live in the master bedroom.
Then the small room on the second floor and the guest room on the first floor belong to the two sisters Xiaoqian and Xiaoman.
Fan Zhaodi next to her was stunned, she opened her mouth to speak, wanted to fight for it again, but she had already smiled and opened her mouth for many years.
"Okay, if that's the case, let the third brother live in the two side rooms in the backyard."
"Second brother, I'll give you the room of my father. You have three rooms in your house. However, these three rooms can be regarded as the ancestral home of our old Xu family. Your family must take good care of them."
There are three rooms in the front yard, two rooms in the east wing, and one room in the main hall. They are the only real estate in the family when they traveled through many years.
At that time, there were eleven people living in three rooms.
Today, in just two years, the family's population has more than doubled.
Sure enough, the saying "open branches and scattered leaves" is true.
When he said this, Fan Zhaodi suddenly became very happy.
Thinking about it carefully, it is really the ancestral house of the old Xu family, or it is more appropriate to say that it is the land of Longxing.
Because Lao Xu started with these three rooms, starting from the year before last, that is, in [-], and in just two years, it has rapidly expanded to the current scale.
Although the two brothers Xu Danian and Xu Niannian were still first-class workers two years ago, they have gained a lot of glory after having this brilliant younger brother for many years.
After all, Hu Meifeng and Fan Zhaodi wouldn't dare to have children if it wasn't for the small second-floor house that had been built for many years.
There are eleven people living in three rooms, and it is scary to think about it.
"Yeah, we promise, we promise to protect it."
Fan Zhaodi also hastily agreed, perhaps guarding these three rooms, the two brothers Xu Weidong and Xu Weibing may really rise to the top like their fifth uncle in the future.
Even if it wasn't, it would be pretty good to have learned half or even [-]% of their Fifth Uncle's skills.
Hu Meifeng suddenly felt that the little second floor in her hand was no longer fragrant.
Miscalculated!
I lost Jingzhou carelessly!
The ancestral house is obviously more fragrant!
But it was too late to say anything now, after all, the plan had been discussed for many years, and Hu Meifeng didn't dare to intervene at this time.
Otherwise, he will definitely be angry for many years, and the second floor may disappear by then.
However, if you think about it carefully, the ancestral house is just a nice name, in fact, it is better to be a small second floor.
Because the small second floor is the north room of the entire No. 95 courtyard, it can also be called the main room.
Although it is only one main room, after all, Shazhu already occupies two rooms, but it is also the main room, so Feng Shui must be better.
The two sisters-in-law were thinking about each other, making their own plans.
Anyway, it's a happy ending.
If you continue to quarrel, then everyone will not be able to sleep tonight.
Many years nodded, then looked at Xiaomei and said:
"Xiaomei, you can move in and live with us too, let your fourth brother live in your room."
The latter also jumped up happily, "Thank you Fifth Brother."
She was overjoyed, she never thought that she could really move to Beihe Hutong, that would be great.
However, Xu Qiannian hastily stopped and said:
"One room is enough for me, Fifth, you don't have to give me so many rooms, I"
When he moved in the afternoon, he was very satisfied with the inverted room in No. 95 courtyard, which was the original study.
Compared with his thatched hut in Yaojiaba, this study, to him, even the imperial palace can't compare.
Besides, he is alone now, and one room is enough for him, so he is very satisfied.
After many years, he waved his hands and said:
"Fourth brother, it's settled like this. However, in the future, you have to take good care of your health. After you find a job, hurry up and spread your branches. This is a task assigned by your father, especially you, fourth brother."
In a word, Xu Qiannian made a big blush.
I told him about the marriage again, but he is still taking care of his body now, and he always makes fun of him about it.
However, being shy is shy, he himself enjoys it and is full of expectations for it.
Before moving to the city, he was still uneasy. After all, the city was very strange to him.
Even though Lao Xu and Zhou Hongmei are his biological parents, but they haven't seen each other for more than 20 years, how could the relationship become close all of a sudden?
Fortunately, they have been very friendly for many years, and Zhou Hongmei cared for them very much.
This gave him a sense of belonging.
Being cared for and feeling warm, this is the feeling of home.
Seeing him blushing and shy, everyone was happy.
First of all, the issue of house allocation has been completely settled. It can be said that everyone is happy, so the atmosphere in the family is very harmonious.
When it came to work, when everyone was about to laugh, Xu Bainian suddenly asked:
"Fifth, you said that my fourth brother and I went to pull the scooter to make money, how about it?"
The two brothers don't have any specialties, such as entering the household or being a worker, don't even think about it.
Even if it is a manure picker or a sanitation worker, it is not something that anyone can do if they want to.
Especially in this special period, the street office strictly controls the number of people who move into the capital, and no one dares to hit the gun.
Xu Bainian and the two brothers didn't know these things, but they could guess them.
After all, there are also vegetable farmers near Yaojiaba. Among those vegetable farmers, many people went to the city to become workers before five or eight years ago.
Because at the beginning, when Xiongguo assisted us, those who could go to the city to work as workers were definitely not blindly selected.
And the status of vegetable farmers is a priority category, they are easier to be selected, and then go to the city to work as workers.
However, around 2000 years ago, when the downsizing occurred, [-] million people from all over the country left the cities again and returned to their original rural household registrations.
Miserable is a bit miserable, but there is no way, unless you are a technical talent or you have other criteria that meet the criteria of staying in the city.
Xu Bainian and the two brothers probably knew this, so they didn't expect to be able to move their household registration to the capital.
But it is still no problem to find a job, such as a job like a cart master.
It all depends on the sky for food, and there is no such thing as food.
With a population of more than 600 million in Beijing, not everyone can become a public institution or civil servant, or a factory worker.
There are still many people struggling at the bottom of the society, such as excrement pickers and sanitation workers, it is not a problem to earn enough food and clothing, and they are still workers with establishments.
But people like the cart master, or those second-tier dealers who buy and sell in the pigeon market, these people are actually the lowest-level people.
Even so, they are actually a little bit better than peasants.
The big guy was shocked when he heard Xu Bainian's words.
Not to mention, this job seems to be really suitable for the two brothers.
Although the two brothers are not tall, less than 1.7 meters, they look honest and honest, and they also have a lot of strength.
It will be raised in the city for a period of time, and after getting familiar with the terrain of the city, it will be absolutely no problem to become a cart master.
Regarding the idea of the two brothers wanting to be cart masters, after many years of pondering for a moment, I had to sigh with emotion.
He never thought of this at all.
Because he stands tall, sometimes he can't see the lower scenery.
Naturally, I never thought of introducing such a job to them. (end of this chapter)
Picking up a piece of meat and putting it in his own bowl, he said lightly:
"Mom, you probably forgot. I said one thing last time. Take your time. Don't rush now."
Zhou Hongmei was not very satisfied with this answer, and asked again unwillingly:
"Then your third brother and fourth brother must have a means of making a living, right? You can't just sit around doing nothing every day?"
Obviously, she cared enough for Xu Bainian and the two brothers.
Everyone understands the reason, so I didn't say anything for many years.
He just patiently explained to Zhou Hongmei that he had to let his third and fourth brothers settle down in the city first.
At the same time, give him some time to think about how to arrange for the two brothers.
After all, it is hard to find a job. So many people were repatriated during the downsizing.
Looking for a job in this special period, you must be more cautious.
Xu Bainian and the two brothers didn't dare to say anything, they just listened silently.
They can clearly feel the love and care from Zhou Hongmei.
The two brothers also understood what they had said for many years. After all, for them, they were not familiar with the place in the capital. Even if they were given a job right now, they might not be able to get used to it.
People who have always faced the loess and their backs to the sky, there are really too few jobs suitable for them.
Therefore, there is no way to say this for many years.
Seeing this saying for many years, although Zhou Hongmei didn't understand it very well, she could only nod her head in acquiescence.
After all, talking for many years is very important.
If it weren't for the urgent desire to care more about the two brothers Xu Baibai and make up for the love lost for more than 20 years, Zhou Hongmei would not have been asking so many years.
This matter is for the time being, everyone continues to eat and drink.
For Xu Bainian and the others, today's meal is the second most sumptuous meal they have eaten in the past two years.
The first time was the family dinner in No. 95 courtyard last time.
And at the end of [-], that is, the Spring Festival of [-], it wasn't long before the big pot meal started.
During the Spring Festival of that year, Yaojiaba also slaughtered pigs and sheep, and the New Year's Eve dinner was very prosperous.
Anyway, at that time, everyone was full of oil.
In fact, it's not just Yaojiaba like them, Qinjiagou at that time, and the production teams such as President Feng Guoqiang and President Li Wanwan who have been there for many years.
The same goes for their New Year's Eve dinner, which is very rich.
For many years, I still remember that time, Feng Guoqiang and his production team clearly had [-] pigs, but they only sold five pigs to many years.
Excluding the five pigs ordered by the village, Feng Guoqiang and his production team had eight pigs left.
If I remember correctly, Feng Guoqiang and his production team directly killed these eight pigs to celebrate the New Year.
After lunch, Many Nian drove the car and took Xu Bainian and his brothers to No. 95 Courtyard.
The two sisters of Xiaodoubao are going to pester their father again, and want to take a car.
For such a short distance, it is really dumbfounding to have to take a car.
Fan Zhaodi and Hu Meifeng also hurried to No. 95 yard to wait.
Because until this time, the two of them didn't know how the two houses were allocated for many years.
When I asked questions at lunch just now, either the subject was changed, or I hadn't answered the question for many years.
From the looks of it, it is impossible for the eldest and second child's family to divide the two houses.
In other words, the purpose of Hu Meifeng and Fan Zhaodi is actually the second floor.
Not only because of the large number of rooms, but also because of the comfort of living.
The jeep was parked at the gate of No. 95 courtyard, and for many years, he stepped into the courtyard with Xiaodoubao and Xiaotuanzi.
Compared with driving, Xu Bainian and Yao Chunxi arrived at the gate of the courtyard earlier.
Zhou Hongmei, Qin Huairu, and the three daughters-in-law of Uncle Tang's family also all came to the gate of the courtyard, because walking was faster than driving.
There is no way, Beihe Hutong is very close to No. 95 Courtyard, just a few steps away.
In addition, when driving, Xiaomei and Xiaoqian were holding the two little guys, Xiaodoubao, and they wanted to play around, driving at a slower speed than a turtle.
As for the luggage on the car, Xu Bainian and the others had already carried it in, and followed Zhou Hongmei.
However, after coming in for many years, Hu Meifeng and Fan Zhaodi started arguing with Zhou Hongmei.
The neighbors next to him were all watching the play, even Aunt Liu, the deaf old lady in the backyard, and Xu Damao's daughter-in-law Huang Xiaohua also came to the front yard to watch the play.
Today's melon is explosive enough, it must be delicious.
Seeing this situation, Xiaomei and Xiaoqian had no choice but to hold the child for many years, but the child was unwilling to let go of his little hand, so he had to carry him to the center of the field.
"Sister-in-law and second sister-in-law, don't stop me. What's the matter with blocking the door? It's a joke for no reason."
As soon as he opened his mouth, Hu Meifeng and Fan Zhaodi began to speak aggrievedly.
Speak feelings, reason, and present facts.
The first two are easy to understand, and the facts behind it are actually a list of their help to the little family for many years in the past two years.
To be honest, it's okay not to mention these things, but when I mention them, I feel a little disgusted with these two sister-in-laws for many years.
Although Xiaoqian, Xiaoman and Xiaodong really helped a lot, they haven't treated them badly for many years.
Hu Meifeng's two sisters-in-law said this today, making it seem like he has been whoring for nothing for many years.
However, disgust is disgust, who made these two his sister-in-law and second sister-in-law.
Very helpless!
People, when faced with interests, will always be dazzled, and become unscrupulous in doing things.
In normal times, Hu Meifeng, who is just a lazy person, would never be involved in such things at all.
For many years, I can guarantee that Fan Zhaodi must have discussed this matter with Hu Meifeng.
"Okay, sister-in-law and sister-in-law, you all stop talking and get out of the way for me!"
Suddenly, Many Years lowered his face and said expressionlessly.
When the two sisters-in-law saw it, they trembled all over and dared not speak.
Anyway, he has been a leader for many years, and when he puts on this posture, he is still very majestic.
So, Xu Bainian moved his things into the old Xu's room, and the fourth Xu Qiannian also moved his things into the study in the inverted room.
"Mom, I'm going to buy some furniture with my third and fourth brothers later, so you can come with me."
Zhou Hongmei waved her hand when she heard the words, and said bluntly that she would not go.
"That's fine, we'll be fast anyway."
According to the normal situation, if you add furniture, beds, wardrobes, etc. to Zhou Hongmei, you must ask her opinion.
It's just that the elderly don't have any requirements for these, as long as they are strong and durable, oh, and the most important thing is that they are cheap.
With reference to these, when buying furniture, it is easy.
At this time, Hu Meifeng and Fan Zhaodi were still watching eagerly. Old Xu's room should be used by the third child.
Then the small second floor of the middle courtyard must have been given to the old man?
Or do they need their boss and second child to compete with each other?
The two sisters-in-law are not sure what is going on now, and they are just worried.
Soon, Hu Meifeng pulled the two sisters Xu Xiaoqian and Xu Xiaoman aside and whispered something.
Then the two sisters ran to hold each other for many years, whispering in his ear.
The two sisters really want to take the car, and Xiaodoubao and Xiaotuanzi will definitely take the car later, so isn't it normal for the two sisters to help take care of the children?
For many years, I have naturally known the two sisters' careful thoughts. I am afraid that it is not as simple as taking a car, but they want to ask clearly about the allocation of houses on the second floor.
Nowadays, there are more houses in the old Xu's family, so everyone's thoughts have become more complicated.
Xiaoqian was agreed, and she will get in the car with her later to help take care of the children.
Fan Zhaodi also saw this scene, but she didn't know what Hu Meifeng wanted to do, so she could only be anxious.
Soon, she saw Xu Xiaoqian getting into the jeep, Xiaodoubao and Xiaotuanzi were in Xiaoqian's arms, and Xiaoqian was in a hurry.
This year Xu Xiaoqian is already 11 years old, and she is also a little girl.
Although they have strength, but they can't stand Xiaodoubao. The two sisters are really naughty and active. One-on-two is not so easy to take care of.
"Xiaodong, get in the car quickly."
Seeing this scene, Fan Zhaodi gritted her teeth with hatred, but she didn't care about arguing with Hu Meifeng, and hurriedly pushed Xu Weidong into the car.
The little guy was very confused. He was drooling at the jeep just now, why did he get in the car the next moment?
The two brothers Xu Bainian and Xu Qiannian were in the back row, and they hurriedly gave way to Xu Weidong.
The two brothers are honest and friendly, they always smile and have a friendly and reserved attitude when they see everyone, and they will not easily offend anyone.
It's not that the two of them don't have principles or something else, but that they don't dare to have their own opinions at all.
After being away from Lao Xu and Zhou Hongmei for more than 20 years, things have changed.
Even if they knew that the two sister-in-laws, Hu Meifeng and Fan Zhaodi, might be planning something, something that would even harm their interests.
They can't and can't do anything.
We can only wait for many years to make up our minds. After all, in this family, the most influential people have been speaking for many years. Even Lao Xu and Zhou Hongmei have to listen to opinions for many years.
Qin Huairu saw that Xu Weidong also got into the car, and was speechless. Before she could speak, Zhou Hongmei asked Xu Weidong to get off.
The little guy didn't dare to be disobedient, so he could only obediently come down.
Fan Zhaodi's face was ugly, but at this time, she had already come to the driving seat for many years, glanced at it expressionlessly, then got in the car, drove the car and left.
He just asked for a leave of absence to move to deal with his third and fourth brothers' affairs. As a result, so many things happened.
It really left him speechless.
"It's better to train, at least, when training, there are not so many trivial things."
Indeed, these things that happened at home seemed to him to be a big deal.
Preoccupied!
After driving away for many years, I suddenly seemed to understand something. It seemed that it was because of the more than 300 yuan owed to him by the boss and the second family.
This amount of money is not a lot to him.
But in the eyes of the eldest Xu Danian and the second eldest Xu Niannian, this is definitely a huge sum of money that can crush them both.
"No, it seems that I have to find a way."
As the saying goes, do not suffer from widowhood but suffer from inequity.
For children born to the same parents, the family has been the best for many years, leaving other brothers and sisters far behind.
The relatives of Uncle Tang's family are alright, they are considered outsiders, and Xu Simmei has also married out, belonging to another family's wife.
But Xu Danian and his brothers are different.
After a long time, their family still has an income of 33 yuan, so it will undoubtedly be even more difficult to pay off the debt of more than 300 yuan.
For many years, it was impossible to directly waive the money to his two brothers, because this was not helping them, but harming them.
After all, the more than 300 yuan also included the money for the medicine to treat Lao Xu's rectal cancer.
The consequences of directly canceling this debt must be serious.
Besides, with this debt, the two elder brothers can keep themselves safe and not mess around.
As the saying goes, having both ability and political integrity, wealth must be coordinated.
If you don't have such a big foot, you can't wear such a big shoe.
But how to think about it, I haven't figured it out for many years.
After making a fuss, Lao Xu, the head of the family, is really incompetent, and he, the fifth child, has to deal with everything.
"However, it seems that I have lived two lifetimes. Counting it, I must be worse than Lao Xu."
Thinking about it this way, I suddenly thought about it after many years, and I laughed too.
Xiaodoubao next to her was stretching out her little hand, wanting to be hugged by her father, but Xiaoqian hugged her back.
"Xiao Dou Bao, don't disturb your father, your father is driving."
After playing around, they soon arrived at their destination.
This is a furniture store near Wangfujing. For many years, I plan to buy furniture from my old acquaintance, Wang Deheng.
"Hey, isn't this Comrade Xu? Long time no see. Why are you free to come to my place today?"
We haven't seen each other for almost two years. After walking into the shopping mall for many years, Wang Deheng saw it, but immediately called out.
As a result, I have to feel for many years that every industry has talents.
It is estimated that Wang Deheng must have been a sales talent in the past, and his memorization of the appearance of customers has been deeply rooted in his bones, which is a subconscious behavior.
After all, Ji Chungeng introduced him as a "big customer" for many years, and he bought a lot of furniture from their mall back then.
"Comrade Wang, long time no see. I just passed by here, so I came in to have a look."
After holding two children for many years, they greeted each other with a smile.
Xu Bainian and the two brothers were looking at everything in front of them curiously. As expected of the capital city, it was dazzling.
Soon after exchanging pleasantries, Wang Deheng led the way forthrightly and courteously after learning of his intentions for many years.
A group of people came to the warehouse again, and there was a lot of rosewood furniture piled up inside.
It had been emptied many years ago, but now that two years have passed, it seems that everything has returned to the original point.
That's nothing to say, I have to choose and choose for many years.
After all, there are so many rooms in Beihe Hutong, all of which are empty, which makes people anxious.
Let's take advantage of today's leave and solve this problem once and for all.
It took more than two hours to finally settle these things.
All the furniture was pulled back by the cart master waiting outside the door.
After arriving home, Zhou Hongmei led the women's army to help clean the furniture inside and out, making it very clean.
There is a well in the courtyard of the inner house, so there is no shortage of water.
The only trouble is, it's not that convenient anymore.
After all, taking water from a well and taking water from a tap are completely different experiences.
However, the matter of the faucet can only be pushed back.
In the space, there are still a lot of steel fragments brought back from Guitou Mountain.
The base under Guitou Mountain was completely buried due to the explosion.
But many places in the base are made of reinforced concrete, as well as cars, steel plates, etc. These are all very good raw materials.
For many years, I thought about taking some time to go to the rolling mill and ask the people in the rolling mill if they could process the steel.
What he needs is a water pipe, so it must be no problem to exchange it with scrap iron?
As for the procedures and letters of introduction, for many years, it was not a problem at all.
Just a few water pipes of about ten meters long, with a total length of less than 200 meters, how much scrap iron can it cost?
At that time in [-], steelmaking in the whole country would have a huge demand for steel.
However, this year is relatively special. Everyone's eyes are on food, not steel.
It will definitely be different.
"Let's take some time to deal with it next time. I have already taken two vacations in the recent period. If I ask for another vacation, Team Zhao will probably go crazy."
Sitting in the yard, watching Xiaodoubao and Xiaotuanzi playing for many years, I think so.
"Three, fifth brother, let's go back first."
As the sun was approaching, Xu Simei brought Jiang Xiuer's three siblings over to bid farewell to many years.
"Why do you go back? Eat at home later, by the way, that kid Jiang Dongyang is almost off work, right? You go back and bring him here."
Although there was also a family banquet at noon, the three of them, Lao Xu, the boss, and the second father and son, were not there, so it was not a happy reunion.
Plus last time, Xu Simai's family didn't come over either.
It's rare that everyone is together today, so we just have a meal together.
It can be regarded as a celebration of family reunion and housewarming.
"This..." Xu Simi looked embarrassed, but she was still very moved, so she could eat meat if she stayed.
But she always took advantage of it for many years, and she felt very sorry for being a younger sister.
"What is this? I think the factory should be off work. You should go back first. Remember to bring me back."
She hadn't been given a chance for many years, so she had no choice but to agree.
Jiang Xiuer and the others jumped up excitedly, "Thank you uncle!"
Here, some eat and some play, which child does not like to stay here?
Anyway, all the children of the old Xu family are here.
Children like Xiaoman and Xiaodong, who used to like to go out to play, haven't gone out in the past few days.
What kind of friends are you looking for? Isn't it nice to stay at Uncle Wu's house?
Time passed slowly, and the evening came soon, and Lao Xu also came back.
There were also two brothers, Xu Danian and Xu Niannian, who didn't return to No. 95 courtyard, and came directly to Beihe Hutong.
The whole family is finally reunited.
The three daughters-in-law of Uncle Tang's family left in the evening.
Although they are thick-skinned, they have finally eaten a meal, and they are too embarrassed to stay thick-skinned for dinner.
There are many people in the family, not counting Xu Simi's family of five, the current population of the old Xu's family has reached 21.
In the future, when Yao Chunxi also blossoms and Xu Qiannian finds a wife, then the population of the old Xu family will rise to another level.
26 people ate together, except for the two little guys, Xiaobudian and Baidoufu, there were also 24 people.
So we eat together at three tables, eight people per table, of course, one table for adults, children and women.
Old Xu, who was sitting on the main seat, with a shiny face, raised his wine glass, and said to the five brothers for many years:
"From now on, you five brothers must unite and love each other, don't quarrel, let alone fight, discuss everything carefully, and don't hurt your peace."
"The most important thing is to spread the branches and leaves. I hope the population of my family can break through 40, or even [-] people."
You can still listen to the previous words, but the latter words immediately made many years dumbfounded.
Xu Simei's family is definitely not counted, and Xu Wumei is also going to marry, so the whole family is only 20 people.
Breaking through from 20 people to 30 people is barely achievable.
40 people?
This is very scary!
Hu Meifeng, Fan Zhaodi, Yao Chunxi, and Qin Huairu, the four sisters-in-law, one counted as the other, all blushed and bowed their heads to cook.
Because what Old Xu said seemed to be for them.
Zhou Hongmei smiled and praised in a low voice when she heard the words:
"I think what your father said is right, I think back then."
Well, she thought about the emotion she had at the beginning, before others said anything, her eyes turned red first.
Mainly because they immediately thought of Xu Bainian and his two brothers, and the other three children who would never come back.
But Hu Meifeng and the others panicked when they saw Zhou Hongmei's sad look.
Because they thought Zhou Hongmei was blaming them for their inaction.
After all, compared to Zhou Hongmei who had given birth to ten children, Hu Meifeng and her four sisters-in-law were all unqualified.
Qin Huairu is the most powerful. She only has two children now, but she also has four children.
However, the gap between this and Zhou Hongmei is not even a little bit.
Today is an era when there are more people and more power. This sentence ran through the entire 70s, 80s and [-]s. It was rarely mentioned until the [-]s.
The table of women was in a hurry, so Lao Xu and the others hurriedly asked what was going on?
The table for the child was led by Xiaomei, and the three tables were all very close to each other, so they soon knew what was going on.
The topic of spreading branches and leaves will soon pass.
After all, it is not suitable to continue the discussion.
Anyway, they are still very young. Hu Meifeng, the oldest, is not yet 30 this year, so don't worry.
Besides, she has been a Chinese medicine doctor for many years, and there is a miracle doctor standing behind her, so it doesn't matter much if she is an advanced mother.
In fact, if you think about it carefully, when Zhou Hongmei gave birth to Xu Wumei, she was over 40 years old, wouldn't it be the same?
Not to mention that women in this era are indeed very physically fit.
The topic quickly shifted to the issue of house allocation.
As soon as this topic started, Old Xu suddenly said:
"Old five, I've been thinking about it, or move here to live with your mother, what do you think?"
The atmosphere at the table suddenly became a little strange.
The boss and the second child all concentrated their attention. No matter how delicious the braised pork in front of them was, they seemed to lose interest.
Hu Meifeng and Fan Zhaodi at the next table also pricked up their ears and listened carefully.
Such a silent and well-behaved appearance is really rare.
No one said anything, and everyone waited many years for a response.
Many years smiled, picked up a piece of cabbage and put it in the bowl, but didn't eat it.
"Father, if you move here to live with us, it will be fine. From now on, I will take care of you and mom. That's fine."
"Now Dad, you still have a job, so you don't need any money from our five brothers. Even in the future, after you retire, you will still have a pension, so it's not a big problem."
"But what about Xiaomei? There is also the fourth brother's marriage, what are you going to do?"
Everyone heard the words, but they didn't think there was any surprise.
After all, he has been a leader for many years, a dual-career family, and Lao Xu has his own salary, so there is absolutely no problem in supporting the elderly.
Moreover, as a leader, you must lead by example, and you must not refuse to support the elderly.
Otherwise, you will lose your virtue and be cast aside by others.
But the questions that have been raised over the years are also extremely acute.
Xiaomei, do you want to move here?
If not, does she cook and eat by herself?
Or did she continue to live with the second child's family?
This is definitely not possible!
Xiaomei herself guessed that she would be the first to refuse.
After all, if she stayed at the second brother's house for dinner, wouldn't she be wronged to death?
The second is Xu Qiannian's marriage, which is not a simple matter.
First of all, he still needs to take care of his body. After about a year, he can have sex.
In other words, even if he gets married in the short term, it's useless.
Fan Zhaodi should be the first to say:
"Fifth Uncle, I'm afraid it's wrong to do this? After all, Dad has been living with our family all the time. If we move here, what should we do?"
After many years of silence, Zhou Hongmei has already spoken.
"What should we do? We two old guys want to live a good life, but do you agree? You are really unfilial!"
This is a bit of a spine.
The second child hurriedly held down Fan Zhaodi, stood up and apologized.
The words are a bit heavy, but the truth is correct.
After all, Lao Xu and Zhou Hongmei can go to whichever son's house they want to live in.
Fan Zhaodi was very angry, but she had no choice but to sit silently, weeping secretly.
"Xiaodoubao, what are you looking at? Are you full?"
Taking a glance, I saw Xiaodoubao looking around for many years, because brother Xiaodong next to her had left, so she was looking for him.
Xu Weidong's little guy naturally came to his mother's side to comfort his mother.
Although he is still young, he is still very smart.
Although he didn't quite understand why his mother was angry, all he could do was comfort his mother.
When Xiaodoubao heard this, she immediately opened her little hands to her father to hug her.
"Eat first, and Dad will take you to play after eating."
Many Nian smiled, walked over and touched the little heads of the two children, filled a bowl of rice, and returned to his seat.
Then he said:
"Let's eat first, everyone. After eating, we will discuss the allocation of the house."
What he said was a final word.
In this case, everyone had to eat first, and the topic of conversation was to try to be as happy as possible.
During the whole meal, the two brothers Xu Bainian were the quietest. Yao Chunxi even chatted with Zhou Hongmei and the others, but the two brothers never said a word.
After dinner, Zhou Hongmei and the others cleaned up the dishes, and the female comrades were more diligent than each other.
Only Qin Huairu was pressed on the seat, and everyone just let her take care of the baby, and she didn't need to clean up the table.
But in fact, Xiaodoubao and the others played with Jiang Xiuer and the others. The little one was hugged for many years, and Bai Doufu was hugged by Old Xu. Where does Qin Huairu need to take care of the children?
The four of them, Hu Meifeng, Fan Zhaodi, Yao Chunxi, and Xu Simei, worked the hardest, and even Xiaomei couldn't get a job.
The two children, Xiaoqian and Xiaoman, could only stand aside, watching the adults do housework in a daze.
Especially Yao Chunxi, who scrubbed the table, really made the table very clean.
After everything was done, the family sat in the middle of the north room and had a meeting.
Jiang Dongyang and his family are just bystanders, or they can be said to be witnesses. Anyway, what happened today has little to do with their family.
This time, I haven't given everyone a chance to speak up for many years, so I just decided on the matter.
"Father wants to move here to live with me. I agree very much. Big brother, second brother, third brother and fourth brother, do you have any objections?"
Don't dare to say if you have an opinion!
Besides, if Lao Xu is really allowed to live in No. 95 courtyard, Lao Xu will probably explode.
Disputes and quarrels will be unavoidable at that time, so don't try to settle this matter today.
Seeing that Xu Nian hadn't said a word, Fan Zhaodi cursed inwardly: A man who is not successful enough!
"Well, since that's the case, then Dad's house will be vacant."
"I'm on the second floor of the middle courtyard of No. 95 courtyard, and I'll give it up to the elders, but, brother, should you give up your house in the backyard?"
Hearing the words of many years, Xu Danian was overjoyed immediately, and asked with trembling lips, "Give it to me?"
That's a small second floor, the guest room on the first floor, the master bedroom and the small room on the second floor, there are three rooms in total, and there is a living room, rounding it up to four rooms.
And there are living facilities such as water pipes on the second floor, which are very convenient.
Hu Meifeng was so happy that she didn't know what to say.
so happy.
"Thank you Uncle Fifth, we can give up the house in the backyard, no problem, I agreed for my man."
Although she was lazy, she had a quick mouth and a quick mind, so she agreed immediately.
The two sisters, Xiaoqian and Xiaoman, were also very happy, because this meant that the two of them might share a room with each other.
After all, there are only three children in their family, Xu Xiaoxin is only one year and one month old, and their mother has another child in her womb, but she is only four months old now.
Therefore, the master bedroom on the second floor is where their parents live. Xu Xiaoxin is only one year old, so she must also live in the master bedroom.
Then the small room on the second floor and the guest room on the first floor belong to the two sisters Xiaoqian and Xiaoman.
Fan Zhaodi next to her was stunned, she opened her mouth to speak, wanted to fight for it again, but she had already smiled and opened her mouth for many years.
"Okay, if that's the case, let the third brother live in the two side rooms in the backyard."
"Second brother, I'll give you the room of my father. You have three rooms in your house. However, these three rooms can be regarded as the ancestral home of our old Xu family. Your family must take good care of them."
There are three rooms in the front yard, two rooms in the east wing, and one room in the main hall. They are the only real estate in the family when they traveled through many years.
At that time, there were eleven people living in three rooms.
Today, in just two years, the family's population has more than doubled.
Sure enough, the saying "open branches and scattered leaves" is true.
When he said this, Fan Zhaodi suddenly became very happy.
Thinking about it carefully, it is really the ancestral house of the old Xu family, or it is more appropriate to say that it is the land of Longxing.
Because Lao Xu started with these three rooms, starting from the year before last, that is, in [-], and in just two years, it has rapidly expanded to the current scale.
Although the two brothers Xu Danian and Xu Niannian were still first-class workers two years ago, they have gained a lot of glory after having this brilliant younger brother for many years.
After all, Hu Meifeng and Fan Zhaodi wouldn't dare to have children if it wasn't for the small second-floor house that had been built for many years.
There are eleven people living in three rooms, and it is scary to think about it.
"Yeah, we promise, we promise to protect it."
Fan Zhaodi also hastily agreed, perhaps guarding these three rooms, the two brothers Xu Weidong and Xu Weibing may really rise to the top like their fifth uncle in the future.
Even if it wasn't, it would be pretty good to have learned half or even [-]% of their Fifth Uncle's skills.
Hu Meifeng suddenly felt that the little second floor in her hand was no longer fragrant.
Miscalculated!
I lost Jingzhou carelessly!
The ancestral house is obviously more fragrant!
But it was too late to say anything now, after all, the plan had been discussed for many years, and Hu Meifeng didn't dare to intervene at this time.
Otherwise, he will definitely be angry for many years, and the second floor may disappear by then.
However, if you think about it carefully, the ancestral house is just a nice name, in fact, it is better to be a small second floor.
Because the small second floor is the north room of the entire No. 95 courtyard, it can also be called the main room.
Although it is only one main room, after all, Shazhu already occupies two rooms, but it is also the main room, so Feng Shui must be better.
The two sisters-in-law were thinking about each other, making their own plans.
Anyway, it's a happy ending.
If you continue to quarrel, then everyone will not be able to sleep tonight.
Many years nodded, then looked at Xiaomei and said:
"Xiaomei, you can move in and live with us too, let your fourth brother live in your room."
The latter also jumped up happily, "Thank you Fifth Brother."
She was overjoyed, she never thought that she could really move to Beihe Hutong, that would be great.
However, Xu Qiannian hastily stopped and said:
"One room is enough for me, Fifth, you don't have to give me so many rooms, I"
When he moved in the afternoon, he was very satisfied with the inverted room in No. 95 courtyard, which was the original study.
Compared with his thatched hut in Yaojiaba, this study, to him, even the imperial palace can't compare.
Besides, he is alone now, and one room is enough for him, so he is very satisfied.
After many years, he waved his hands and said:
"Fourth brother, it's settled like this. However, in the future, you have to take good care of your health. After you find a job, hurry up and spread your branches. This is a task assigned by your father, especially you, fourth brother."
In a word, Xu Qiannian made a big blush.
I told him about the marriage again, but he is still taking care of his body now, and he always makes fun of him about it.
However, being shy is shy, he himself enjoys it and is full of expectations for it.
Before moving to the city, he was still uneasy. After all, the city was very strange to him.
Even though Lao Xu and Zhou Hongmei are his biological parents, but they haven't seen each other for more than 20 years, how could the relationship become close all of a sudden?
Fortunately, they have been very friendly for many years, and Zhou Hongmei cared for them very much.
This gave him a sense of belonging.
Being cared for and feeling warm, this is the feeling of home.
Seeing him blushing and shy, everyone was happy.
First of all, the issue of house allocation has been completely settled. It can be said that everyone is happy, so the atmosphere in the family is very harmonious.
When it came to work, when everyone was about to laugh, Xu Bainian suddenly asked:
"Fifth, you said that my fourth brother and I went to pull the scooter to make money, how about it?"
The two brothers don't have any specialties, such as entering the household or being a worker, don't even think about it.
Even if it is a manure picker or a sanitation worker, it is not something that anyone can do if they want to.
Especially in this special period, the street office strictly controls the number of people who move into the capital, and no one dares to hit the gun.
Xu Bainian and the two brothers didn't know these things, but they could guess them.
After all, there are also vegetable farmers near Yaojiaba. Among those vegetable farmers, many people went to the city to become workers before five or eight years ago.
Because at the beginning, when Xiongguo assisted us, those who could go to the city to work as workers were definitely not blindly selected.
And the status of vegetable farmers is a priority category, they are easier to be selected, and then go to the city to work as workers.
However, around 2000 years ago, when the downsizing occurred, [-] million people from all over the country left the cities again and returned to their original rural household registrations.
Miserable is a bit miserable, but there is no way, unless you are a technical talent or you have other criteria that meet the criteria of staying in the city.
Xu Bainian and the two brothers probably knew this, so they didn't expect to be able to move their household registration to the capital.
But it is still no problem to find a job, such as a job like a cart master.
It all depends on the sky for food, and there is no such thing as food.
With a population of more than 600 million in Beijing, not everyone can become a public institution or civil servant, or a factory worker.
There are still many people struggling at the bottom of the society, such as excrement pickers and sanitation workers, it is not a problem to earn enough food and clothing, and they are still workers with establishments.
But people like the cart master, or those second-tier dealers who buy and sell in the pigeon market, these people are actually the lowest-level people.
Even so, they are actually a little bit better than peasants.
The big guy was shocked when he heard Xu Bainian's words.
Not to mention, this job seems to be really suitable for the two brothers.
Although the two brothers are not tall, less than 1.7 meters, they look honest and honest, and they also have a lot of strength.
It will be raised in the city for a period of time, and after getting familiar with the terrain of the city, it will be absolutely no problem to become a cart master.
Regarding the idea of the two brothers wanting to be cart masters, after many years of pondering for a moment, I had to sigh with emotion.
He never thought of this at all.
Because he stands tall, sometimes he can't see the lower scenery.
Naturally, I never thought of introducing such a job to them. (end of this chapter)
