good old days

Seeing Professor Yu walking forward with one hand behind his back, Jiang Xinyu hurriedly caught up.

She said bluntly: "Teacher, do you know that Jiang Baoqin and I have a bad relationship, so she has to be satisfied with me renting your house?"

Professor Yu snorted with a grimace, "I can do whatever I want with my house. It's not anyone else's turn to dictate. You can live here if you want. It costs five yuan a month. If you don't want to live there, forget it."

"You, a lesbian, are quite thoughtful."

Jiang Xinyu defended: "I am afraid that your family will not be harmonious."

Yu Xiling snorted again with a sullen face, "I see that your English is pretty good. Are you interested in translating books and exercising yourself?"

Jiang Xinyu responded quickly, "Yes, but I still need your guidance."

Professor Yu nodded with satisfaction, "Go and borrow "Pride and Prejudice" and translate a few chapters for me to read first."

In the past ten years, translators have been classified as te, hustle and bustle, the domestic translation industry has been greatly damaged, and the development of translation has basically stagnated.Nowadays, all universities offer English courses, which are still classified as "big courses", and the translation business of publishing houses has also quietly picked up the translation business.

Professor Yu accepted the translation of some books not to make money, but to enrich the people's spiritual world.

The work of translation is long-term and cannot be completed by him alone. Let Jiang Xinyu borrow books for translation purely to train her.

Jiang Xinyu is very motivated to learn now. When she picked up English again, she realized that her English level in the past could be improved even higher.

Professor Yu was willing to rent a house to them out of kindness, and the house in New South Campus was also very suitable. But with Jiang Baoqin here, she would not consider that house.

She mentioned this matter to Chen Yi, and Chen Yi agreed with her. No matter how suitable the courtyard was, it was not troublesome enough to be involved with someone like Jiang Baoqin.

In early June, Chen Yi followed his classmate Xu Lei to see a "rented" room in the courtyard.

This large courtyard was supposed to be a two-entry courtyard, with about 20 rooms in it, and about a hundred people crowded into one courtyard.

Xu Lei is a local, and the courtyard where he lives is not far away. He quietly found out that there was a family in this courtyard that was interested in renting out the property in exchange for some subsidies.

The so-called renting is also secretive. To the outside world, it is said that it is a relative renting the house.

"The house is a bit small, or the two girls in his family have got married to free up such a small house. If it is not rented out, the family can fill it up."

Chen Yi was mentally prepared for what Xu Lei said, but he didn't expect the house to be as small as that!
That house was an "illegal building" built in front of the house, and the roof didn't look strong. The main materials should be reeds, white ash, hemp and the like.

This "illegal building" not only looks unsound, but also has a small space. His pig pen is more than three times larger than this room.

"It's normal for this house to be drafty in winter and leaky in summer. Every house here is like this, but it's a lot cheaper than the house you're looking at in Xinnan Courtyard, only three yuan a month. Moreover, Everyone is warm and friendly, and the relationship with the neighbors is pretty good.”

Xu Lei thinks this house is still good, and it will be completely suitable for Chen Yima to live here with her children in the future.

Yes, the rent prices in the capital are so cheap at this time. It can be said that the rent prices across the country are not much different.

Chen Yi said he needed to think about it, and he breathed a sigh of relief after leaving the courtyard after bidding farewell to the landlord.

He had never lived in such a cramped house, and this house was not what he expected. It was worse than the house with a pigsty in his team.

Xu Lei said: "Decide quickly whether you want to rent or not. The housing here is very tight. Many families are crowded together, and the house is not enough to live in."

"I'll go back to her to discuss it."

Chen Yi came out to look at the house, and Jiang Xinyu tutored Annal in English in the library.

When he came back, he went directly to the library to find her.

Anael saw him coming and changed the table with a wink.

Jiang Xinyu unfolded the latest issue of the journal and showed him, and that page happened to be his paper.

Chen Yi looked calm and was not surprised. The professor had reviewed the paper.He pushed the book aside and told him about today's house inspection.It's hard to find a house in the capital, so the two of them now have two options. The house of the old couple in Xinnan Yuan is quite troublesome because of their son. No one else lives in Professor Yu's house, but with Jiang Baoqin, the two of them can't. Considered it.

"I'll go see it with you next weekend."

The shortcomings of the large courtyard introduced by Xu Lei are obvious. You have to take two bus stops on the road, and the house is very small. But compared to those two houses, it seems that it can be considered.

Midsummer is approaching, cicadas are chirping and insects are chirping on the campus, and the two of them are walking slowly under the dark night.

The child moved his arms and legs in her belly, and she quickly took his hand and put it on her belly.

"Do you feel it?"

"Did it hurt from her kick?"

The two spoke at the same time.

Jiang Xinyu shook her head, "It doesn't hurt, it's a little itchy."

A small breeze blew and the leaves rustled. The two of them were sitting on a stone bench. There was no one around. Jiang Xinyu stretched her legs to his legs and let him rub them.

Her feet have been a little swollen recently, and she even had a cramp in the middle of the night.

"What do you think Mom and the others are doing at home? When she comes over, how will she eat in the future if there is no food?"

He smiled and said, "Don't worry about that. I will go back after the exam. I asked Ding Changhai to help us save some food before I left. When I go back, I will bring enough to eat until the end of the year. It's okay for mom to live here." question."

As long as you have food, you don't have to worry about where you are.

The Wuliqiao brigade has not been peaceful lately.

In early May, the boy of the Yuan family was bitten by a wild dog in their brigade. The adults thought it was okay, but the old lady of the Yuan family had a harmful idea.Everyone knew that Chen Xiuyun's family had a dog. If the dog bite was blamed on Chen Xiuyun's dog, it would still be a good deal.

Chen Xiuyun is now teaching in the commune, and Xiaochuan also went to the commune to study. On weekdays, the two of them never go back several times a week, and Widow Wang feeds most of the livestock at home.

After the Yuan family came to the door, Widow Wang and her close female comrades in the village drove them away and took Xiao Hei from Chen Xiuyun's courtyard back to their own courtyard.

Although this dog is a livestock, it will become a part of the family after being kept for a long time. Widow Wang knows that her daughter-in-law likes this dog, and is also afraid that the Yuan family will do something bad if they are immoral.

A few weeks later, the Yuan family gathered about ten people from their village to demand an explanation because the Yuan family's boy died.

It's fine if a child is bitten, but if a person dies, it's a big deal.

But the key is that Chen Xiuyun is not at home, and Xiao Hei has never even left the courtyard, so how can he go to other villages to bite people?

When a person dies, the people in the Yuan family will not let Widow Wang deny it. They insist on seeking an explanation.

Within two days, someone in their village was bitten again. Only then did everyone realize that the original biter was a wild dog near the village.

The wild dogs not only shocked people in one village, but also bitten people in the surrounding villages.

The boy from the Yuan family died of tetanus, which is why the attack happened so quickly.

But the wild dog had rabies, and the people who were bitten could not get the rabies vaccine. One after another, people died of tetanus. Even if they were not dead, they might not live long.

The people in the village didn’t know what was going on, but they knew that if bitten by a mad dog, they would die!
The team leaders organized people to hunt down the dogs, and no one running around in the village escaped the fate of being beaten to death.

Widow Wang went to work on her private plot for a while. When she came back, she saw Xiao Hei lying in the yard with blood on his mouth. His eyes were motionless and his pupils were dilated.

Liu Caifeng, Feng Dashan's wife next door, still held the stick in her hand and hummed: "It will be a disaster if you keep it, I will help you solve it."
