Take Arada back to the past

Chapter 114, The Situation of the Compound

Watching her elder brother leave, Yang Xiaole pondered over there.

You can't beat others.

How to do it?

The elder brother went quickly and came back quickly: "Okay, I gave them the things, and said that I will go through the formalities for me later, let's go, it's also meal time, I will take you to the cafeteria to eat, I have a meal ticket, it is too late to eat outside." Expensive."

Yang Xiaole thought for a while.

In the end, I agreed. Going out all the time would probably scare my elder brother.

He nodded and followed him into the factory.

At this time, many people who had eaten had come back after having a good meal one after another.

On the way, Yang Xiaogang asked about the house.

When he heard that he had rented three rooms for 11 yuan, he was surprised: "You really rented three rooms? But this is too expensive, isn't it half a month's salary?"

Yang Xiaole shook her head: "It's okay, we have a large family, and the house is too small to sleep! Dad will come over in the future, and you will get married in the future!"

There are some things that he can't tell his eldest brother.

Houses in Kyoto are being built all the time, but how can it withstand so many people having children!
After the chaotic years, those who rented private houses did not have to pay rent to those rich people, at least ten years without paying rent.

And at that time, if you want to rent a bigger house, you will not be able to rent it.

Nowadays, unless the children get married, there is no other way, so they go out to rent a house of about ten square meters, and the husband and wife live together.

But with the birth of a child, the place becomes crowded.

At that time, it was very difficult to rent a house. At that time, it depended on whether you met the standards for renting a house.

There are many cases where three generations live in a room of more than ten square meters, and even in the millennium, there are still many such households.

Speaking of this, those people's intestines are full of regret.

"That's too expensive. Half a month's salary!"

Hearing the elder brother's muttering voice, Yang Xiaole smiled and said: "Brother, you can't do the math! You do the math, although you and your mother are now paid as apprentices, it doesn't mean that you will be in the future. In two years you He Niang's salary is high, ten yuan is acceptable.

And it's not just you, you will marry a daughter-in-law in the city, and she will have a job, my eldest sister and I will be paid when we work, and my father will definitely go to the city in the future.

Do you think this apportionment is still expensive?
The extra room is for you to use when you get married in the future. It’s three yuan more than one room. Is it expensive for you two to live in?
You can see that those people in the city rent only two houses, but if you count, if you count all those who get married and live out, are there fewer houses?Quite a lot!
Take our family as an example, if you don’t live with us, you will go out to rent two rooms in the future, I will go out to rent two rooms in the future, and the fourth child will rent two rooms after getting married, how much do you count?
Is there more?This account is not clear. "

The reason why it is expensive is mainly because both of them have just entered the city and their wages are low. When the wages rise in the future, they will naturally not feel unacceptable.

Yang Xiaogang heard what he said, and after such a calculation, it seems to be true!
There is no more to say.

When I came to the cafeteria, there were still some people eating there.

The eldest brother went to the cafeteria window and took the meal ticket to buy some vegetables and Wowotou with Erhe noodles.

Erhe noodles are actually corn flour and flour mixed in a certain proportion to make steamed buns.

But this corn flour is not the corn dregs from the rural stone mill, it is very fine corn flour, the kind of corn husk removed.

Yang Xiaogang put down the things, smiled at him and said, "There are no bowls and chopsticks. These are the bowls and chopsticks used by the leaders on the second floor to eat from the small stove. Let's have a small stove today."

A bowl of watery braised chicken, Chinese cabbage and a bowl of green pepper and potato shreds.

Seeing this, Yang Xiaole smiled, this thing is a big pot dish, how could it be a small stove, this braised chicken is full of water.

Unlike the braised chicken that uncle took them to eat last time, it was really a small stove.

Oil and water are different.

He didn't care, picked up his rice bowl and ate.

He knows that he doesn’t need a ticket for chicken. A bowl costs RMB 5, which is much cheaper than outside, but it is estimated that if he didn’t come by himself, the eldest brother would be reluctant to eat chicken.

There wasn't much food, the two of them ate quickly, and there was no one who didn't have eyes to come over and cause trouble.

After eating, after the two came out, Yang Xiaole looked at him and asked, "Brother, are you really not suffering?"

"No! They're both dead!"

Hearing this, Yang Xiaole thought for a while, and finally nodded.

"Okay, come up! Buy something for Mother. Otherwise, Mother has nothing to use."

Taking the eldest brother is mainly to move things.

"Oh!"

The eldest brother let out a soft sound, got into the car and rode away.

Instead of going to the mall, I went directly to the consignment store.

It's a bit inappropriate to come here and buy a new one.

Wandering around three consignment stores nearby, this allowed him to buy a bunch of things.

Old coal stoves, old iron pans, kitchen knives, enamel washbasins, thermos bottles, aluminum kettles...

For the bowls and chopsticks, of course, I bought new ones in the store. I didn’t buy white porcelain bowls. I bought a lot of black pottery bowls. These things are cheap, and they cost a few cents each.

Bought a new cutting board.

After thinking about it, it seems that there is nothing to buy for the time being.

With these old ladies, at least they can live a simple life, and now they only need two quilts.

He picked out old sheets and bought a few more. He planned to use the ones in the space for his wife first, and then make new quilts for her when the weather got cold.

It cost less than ten yuan before and after.

There was a pile of things hanging on the car, and the two pushed the pile of things and walked towards the courtyard.

"Xiao Le, why did you buy so many sheets?"

"Use it! Use it as a quilt."

The elder brother let out a light oh.

When he came to the place, he parked the car at the door, took the key and carried his things and walked inside.

People who entered the compound were curious when they saw them coming.

But it's not too strange that Yang Xiaole has been here.

Yang Xiaole took the key and opened the door, "Brother, put everything here, let mother come and fix it when she comes."

Seeing this, the eldest brother put down his things and began to look around the room.

"Very good! Much better than our hometown. Much cleaner."

At least I stayed in the factory for a while and lived in a dormitory, so I didn't feel like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden.

Yang Xiaole clapped her hands, and also looked at it.

The wooden grille and roof give him an antique feeling, but it is a bit old.

"The house is rented?"

While thinking, Uncle Wang walked in, smoking a cigarette and smiling.

"Uncle Wang."

Yang Xiaole greeted her with a smile, and introduced to her elder brother, "Brother, this is Uncle Wang."

After finishing speaking, she arched him with her arms.

Seeing this, the eldest brother hurriedly said hello: "Uncle Wang. Come, have a cigarette."

When he came here before, Yang Xiaole specially gave him a pack, and now he just took out one and scattered one.

The smile on Uncle Wang's face grew even wider when he saw this.

He took it with a smile and said with a smile: "You are welcome, from now on you will be neighbors in the neighborhood, and a compound will be a family."

"Hey!"

The elder brother just smiled and agreed.

At this time, many people came in one after another outside.

Men, women, and children came to join in the fun.

"Oh, this is moving in, and the action is quite fast!"

"Lao Zhang's house is pretty good. I wanted to rent it before! It's just too expensive."

"Just the two of you? Where are your adults?"

…………

Yang Xiaole looked at the crowd, and nodded with a smile. She didn't know their name, so she nodded with a smile as a recognition.

"My mother hasn't come yet! I guess she will come tomorrow."

"Hey, okay, let me know if you have any difficulties. From now on, you will be neighbors. You are welcome!"

"Hey, good, thank you aunt!"

Yang Xiaole smiled politely at the aunt who just spoke.

Uncle Wang introduced it to everyone there.

At this time, he also knew some people in the yard, of course, only the people in this yard, not many people from the back room.

The two houses in the west wing opposite.

Aunt Zhao who spoke just now is one of them. The man in the family, Uncle Zhao, has gone out. The family is an old master of the furniture factory.

Aunt Zhao lived next to a family of teachers, Fang Guoping and his wife, with a son and a daughter, but no one came.

Uncle Wang lives in the main room. He is a welding master of Beiqi Flexible Shaft Factory in Xicheng, a level 7 welder, and the most powerful person in the yard.

The chubby Aunt Wang next to him is his wife.

This made Yang Xiaole take another look.

These years, level 8 workers are all legendary existences, and it is said that those who weld the missiles are all level 8 workers.

It is the top big baby of each unit.

A level 7 workman is one level behind, that's a big deal.

There are 7 houses in a row of the main house, 3 houses in total, and [-] more houses, one is the family of Mr. Li, and the other is Sun Fu, an ordinary employee of the soy sauce factory.

And the next one is Liu Hongsheng, a coal delivery master of the coal pellet factory, who lives in the back room.

Those who didn't come naturally didn't have an introduction.

Yang Xiaole said hello with a smile, while the eldest brother was there to smoke.

Seeing that there was no coal yet, he asked Liu Hongsheng, "Uncle Liu, where did you buy these coal balls?"

If there is a stove, coal must be burned, otherwise there is no way to cook.

The other party was covered in gray soot, as were his hands, and he was wearing a thin undershirt with a black towel hanging around his neck.

It looks like a stick.

Liu Hongsheng lit the cigarette that Yang Xiaogang handed over just now, took a puff and said with a smile, "How much do you want? I brought you lump coal or briquette?"

"What's the price for Uncle Liu?"

“块煤24块一吨，煤球30块1毛8，有1200块。合下来2分5一块。”

Yang Xiaole nodded.

The price is a bit more expensive than the commune.

In fact, lump coal is more resistant to burning, but there is no kang at home, so it is inconvenient to use lump coal. It takes half a day to ignite this thing.

Thinking of this, he said to Liu Hongsheng: "Uncle Liu, please get me 100 yuan, just put it under the stove at the door."

There are traces of putting coal there.

After speaking, he took out 2 yuan and handed it to him.

The other party took it with a smile: "Okay, I will pull coal in the afternoon and bring it back for you in the evening."

"Then thank you, Uncle Liu, we may not be here tonight, so you can just leave it there."

"Okay, then I'll go to rest for a while, and I have to go to work later."

The other party greeted with a smile and left.

Seeing this, the others also greeted and left one after another. After all, the adults in the family did not come, only the two little dolls.

After the people left, Uncle Wang said with a smile: "That's fine, I'll go back first, if you have any difficulties, remember to come to me."

"Hey, okay, my lord."

The other party left immediately upon seeing this.

After the people left, Yang Xiaole urged the eldest brother: "Hurry up, there are still things that have not been brought back!"

Yang Xiaogang only reacted at this time.

Follow him quickly to get things.

After taking all the things back, Yang Xiaole saw that the time was almost up, and he had to go to Su Ling.
