I am a cripple in the Siheyuan. Who am I afraid of?

Chapter 294 The World in Thea’s Eyes

Early the next morning, Song Wu went to the street to find the old man who was repairing the house. He was afraid that he would be asked to do more work because of the rain, so he went to the door early. It turned out that he was obviously overthinking it. It was really annoying when it leaked, but when it leaked, it leaked, and it stopped raining. Everyone didn't take it seriously. Many people had the same idea as Silly Zhu. We could encounter such heavy rain a few times, so there was no need to worry about it. In fact, there were actually many more people going to the streets to negotiate.

The master who repaired the house was very happy when he saw Song Wu asking him to work. He led several young apprentices and immediately followed him to the house.

After they looked at the house of Qin Huairu and He Yuyu in the middle courtyard, the master said: "To be safe, the roof tiles must be re-paved, and it is best to get some linoleum."

Song Wu said: "If you do what is best, it will be best for you to live ten to twenty years without having to worry about rain again."

The master likes people like Song Wu.

Song Wu pulled the master and asked, "How to solve the problem of water accumulation in this courtyard?"

The master said: "This cannot be solved. It is not something we can do one by one. Especially here in Nanluogu Lane, the terrain is relatively low. The rain yesterday lasted for a short time and was not obvious. If it had been so heavy, If it rains for a long time and a whole day, I’d probably lose all my legs in this alley.”

Jia Zhang seemed very happy after the masters arrived in the morning. Qin Huairu came back last night and told her that Song Wu would arrange for a house repair master to come to her house today. She did not expect that this morning , people are here. The key is that she doesn't have to worry about the whole thing.

After the general meeting yesterday, she felt disappointed. I originally planned to tidy up the house to make it easier for everyone, but I didn't expect that no one in the courtyard was a fool, and they were all ready to show up on the street.

Now it's great, she no longer has to wait for the street, her family is the first in the hospital to start renovating the house. She looked at Song Wu who was talking to his master. The feeling of loss caused by him riding a tricycle to collect rags in the past few days was almost gone.

Dormitory Building No. 27, North Campus of Beijing University, Thea still had a cold and fever last night. Fortunately, it was not serious. After taking medicine, she seemed to be much better this morning.

She opened her eyes and saw that Mary, another girl in the same dormitory, was no longer in the room. She picked up her watch and looked at it. It was already past 9 o'clock, almost 10 o'clock.

At this moment, except for her head, which was still a little dizzy, and her body a little weak, she basically had no other uncomfortable feelings. "Thanks to meeting Song Wu yesterday, otherwise I would have definitely been seriously ill this time. Of course, fortunately, he had a A little car with a shed.”

Thea couldn't help but think of the scene where she was sitting behind a tricycle yesterday, and a smile appeared on her lips. It was really the rare happy time she had recently.

She felt her physical condition, then got up from the bed, slowly put on her clothes and poured herself a cup of hot water. She stood by the window holding the cup and looked out the window quietly. This was an action she was very accustomed to. .

Her room faced east, and the window faced a cluttered square of sand where all kinds of waste were piled, piles of ashes, and scrapped machine parts.

And just behind the coal pile, in the low house, there is a post office, a barber shop and a small shop.

She faced such scenes every day in this place. Compared with the life she was used to in Sweden or other European places, she could not imagine that life in the highest university in this mysterious ancient Eastern country would be so primitive and simple. She once regretted very much why she followed the instigation of her sinologist father and came here to study abroad.

Thea felt that since arriving here, everything seemed terrible. When she first came here last year, she found that the people here were bloated and listless. She was shocked and couldn't believe that there was such a place in the world.

She had never received any such news before coming here. If she had known this earlier, she would definitely not have come here at this time.

Later, she saw that the trees in early spring had just sprouted buds, and almost everyone here would climb and break them to eat.

Thea was completely shocked. She quickly asked her classmates to find the school teacher and said to him righteously: "They are destroying trees and they should be stopped."

As a result, the teacher told her expressionlessly: "You have to know that they haven't eaten green vegetables for a long time. It's almost since autumn last year and they haven't seen any green things again."

Thea felt that what she saw and heard was too terrible. If it weren't for her father who worked in the embassy, ​​she might have been unable to bear it and returned to China.

Later, not long after, Thea herself began to suffer from various symptoms due to malnutrition. What bothered her the most was that her beautiful golden hair, which she was most proud of, was suffering from severe hair loss. This made her feel as if she was about to lose the whole world, which made her heartbroken and in great pain. .

Oh my gosh, now her daily meals here are specially provided for foreign students. But she still suffered from malnutrition.

They foreign students have their own canteen, which is the small red brick building where she took Song Wu to yesterday. Despite this, the cafeteria still looked very shabby to Thea. There were only two windows here, one of which sold so-called Western food, including some meatballs or beef stew-like dishes that made her unappetizing at first. Then there are various vegetables, rice or noodles. For Thea, a girl from a country with a high protein diet, suddenly arriving in a place where vegetables are the main food, she felt as if she had never been full since arriving here.

Thanks to her father, she was able to receive weekly protein injections for treatment and slowly recovered.

From then on, Thea truly realized the situation here, and slowly understood the seriousness of hunger and lack of supplies here.

It was the first time that she knew what the real world was.

At this moment, there was a lot of excitement outside the window while Thea was busy with her thoughts.

Oh, those students started practicing Tai Chi again after two classes every morning.

It is said that doing this every day can have a very obvious effect on improving their physical fitness, allowing them to better build the motherland and serve society.

But Thea watched them practice Tai Chi almost every day, but always found that their energy seemed to be getting weaker day by day. Seeing them wearing gray clothes and making uniform and mysterious movements, it seemed to Thea that everyone seemed to be sleepwalking.

Thea looked at it for a while, sighed, and put the cup on the table. The image of Song Wu from yesterday flashed in her mind.

He is really a very unique person here. Riding a very beautiful tricycle, he has a rare healthy atmosphere, his eyes are very bright, and his whole person is very powerful, generous, natural, and very caring. There is no special emotion towards Thea because she is a foreigner. She is very peaceful and vivid. Judging from his appearance, he is usually in the same state when dealing with the people around him.

The door of the dormitory was pushed open, and Ma Li, who had curly brown hair, walked into the room with a smile. As soon as she entered, she excitedly said to Thea: "Thea, I found an interesting place. Oh my god, I didn't expect that. You can also hear music here. There is also a band playing and singing.”

After hearing what Mary said, Thea frowned in surprise and asked her, "Are you sure you're not hallucinating?"

Ma Li laughed, and after a while she said: "Of course not, you can't believe that you can hear the latest songs there. I can't wait to go, can you go with me?"

Thea was also curious, but she thought about it and shook her head: "I have to go to piano lessons later, and I really don't have time to go with you."

Mary's face was full of disappointment, and then she complained unhappily: "I really don't understand, what's the point of those guqins? The slow rhythm doesn't make me happy at all. The guitars and drums in it make it even more fun to hear. excited."

Thea just pursed her lips and smiled, "But I like to play the guqin. After a while, I can accompany you, but not today."

When Thea pushed her bicycle out of the campus, she looked around carefully at the door, but she didn't find the figure or the tricycle, which made her feel a little disappointed with some expectations.

Today, because Song Wu arranged to repair the house for Qin Huairu and He Yuyu, he didn't go out at all. After working all day, he finally renovated the house.

There are several residents in the courtyard who also have leaks. When they see Qin Huairu and He Yuyu's houses starting to be renovated, they can't help but feel a little envious.

However, Qin Huairu and He Yuyu both went to work and were not at home at all, and Song Wu ignored them, so they could only talk to Jia Zhang if they had anything to say.

Aunt Yan said to Mrs. Jia and Zhang, "Your family is really willing to give up the new tiles and linoleum, so you can go to great lengths to put it on the roof. How much will it cost?"

Jia Zhang's face was calm, but her eyes were full of pride, and she said: "My old lady doesn't understand these things. They were all organized by Qin Huairu. To be honest, since she was transferred to the cafeteria and then became a full-time employee, our family has also really Much better.”

Aunt Yan said: "If you ask me, your family Qin Huairu has a good relationship with the Song Wu family. Otherwise, if you see him running around to help with work, he seems to be more attentive than his own family." This old woman probably also noticed that I came out to learn some tricks and took this opportunity to test Jia Zhang's words.

Jia Zhang smiled and said: "Everyone in our courtyard knows who Song Wu is. He is a standard henpecked person. Can he not do the things Lou Xiao'e arranged for him? You see, including He Yuyu's small house opposite, He Yuyu doesn't have to worry about it at all, and that's not all because she has a good relationship with Lou Xiao'e."

Aunt Yan curled her lips and said, "I'm not sure who is dating who?"
