Siheyuan: Fishing for All Things

When Yi Zhonghai came to the yard, several people were hoeing the soil and sowing seeds, working happily.

"Why are you here if you don't cook?" Liu Zhonghai shouted at the second aunt with a stern face.

"It's not urgent to cook later, why are you shouting?"

The second aunt retorted.

"You..."

Liu Haizhong was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, but he couldn't do anything about the second aunt.

He beat his son for working hard, but he didn't dare to beat his wife.

Yi Zhonghai didn't say anything, but looked at the structure of the yard, especially when he saw that there was actually a toilet and a bathhouse, a trace of heat flashed in his eyes, and he also had a plan in his heart.

As for Yan Bugui, he went home and saw the huge Hami melon, and he understood it in his heart.

The third aunt is not a person who will suffer losses.

"Okay, it's so late, go home and cook."

Yi Zhonghai shouted, and several people put down their work and promised Lin Shaowen that they would come to plant flowers for him tomorrow.

Before leaving, Yi Zhonghai added, "By the way, there will be a meeting for the whole courtyard in the evening. Lin Shaowen, you should attend on time."

"Got it."

Lin Shaowen agreed and continued to work.

After Qin Huairu came back, she first helped to close Lin Shaowen's courtyard door, and then slipped in through the small door to start cooking.

Her cooking skills were average, but the ingredients were rich.

Seeing the two pounds of beef soaked in water, her eyes almost smiled into crescents.

After a while, the beef was fried in the pan, and after a little white wine was sprinkled, the whole yard was filled with the aroma of beef.

"Lin Shaowen is eating meat again?"

Many people complained.

But no one dared to make trouble.

Shazhu also cooked at home. After Qin Huairu moved to the backyard, his heart was empty. In the past, he could sneak to the middle courtyard to see Qin Huairu when he had nothing to do, but now...he, a big guy, can't run to the backyard, right?

"Lin Shaowen is so stupid. Sister Qin lives outside and still keeps the door closed every day." Sha Zhu laughed in his heart.

There are many people in the yard who want to catch Lin Shaowen.

He and Jia Dongxu once went to Qin Huairu's door to squat, but they squatted for several nights. Qin Huairu never came out again after returning to the house. As for Lin Shaowen... he almost never opened the door except when he went home.

"It's time to eat."

Qin Huairu waved to Lin Shaowen who was busy in the flowerbed. After he came over, she brought a basin of water to him and washed his face and hands.

The two went back to the house to eat.

Qin Huairu chattered with her about interesting things in the factory. Lin Shaowen didn't talk much during the meal, but he still listened to Qin Huairu carefully, which made Qin Huairu very happy.

After finishing the meal, she wanted to pull Lin Shaowen to the bedroom before she cleaned it up.

"Sister Qin, there will be a meeting for the whole courtyard tonight." Lin Shaowen smiled bitterly.

"Really?"

Qin Huairu's face flushed as she looked at the tatami in the study.

...

An hour later.

Sha Zhu knocked on the door three times before Qin Huairu came out with a red face.

"Sister Qin, what's wrong with you?" Sha Zhu asked with concern.

"Maybe I caught a cold and don't feel well." Qin Huairu shook her head.

"Should I take you to the hospital?"

Sha Zhu took a step forward, and Qin Huairu stepped back calmly.

"No, let's go to the meeting."

"What meeting? Lin Shaowen hasn't come yet." Sha Zhu said unhappily.

"Xiao Lin? What does the whole hospital meeting have to do with him?" Qin Huairu asked in a low voice.

"This kid is too arrogant, and the uncle wants to punish him..."

Sha Zhu was talking about the uncle's plan with a beaming face, and Qin Huairu's face turned pale. She was about to find an excuse to go back to the house to inform Lin Shaowen, but she saw that the moon door was opened.

Lin Shaowen didn't even look at the two of them, and walked to the yard.

"Boy, you are so arrogant, I will make you pay later." Sha Zhu said hatefully.

Qin Huairu saw this and didn't bother to pay attention to him, and hurriedly followed Lin Shaowen.

The courtyard.

Three tables have been set up, and three uncles are sitting on them.

Some of the others are sitting on small benches, but most of them are standing or squatting, looking a little helpless.

"Lin Shaowen, do you have any sense of time?" Yi Zhonghai slapped the table and yelled.

"Are you fucking sick? You hold your meeting, and it has nothing to do with you whether I come or not?" Lin Shaowen took out a cigarette, and Yan Bugui stood up habitually, but found himself sitting on the stage, and couldn't help but sit back embarrassedly.

"This meeting is about you." Liu Haizhong also scolded.

"That's funny. Did I burn down your house or beat up your son? About me? Who do you think you are?"

Lin Shaowen didn't give Liu Haizhong any face.

"Brother, you're awesome."

Xu Damao gave Lin Shaowen a thumbs up.

"No big deal."Lin Shaowen handed him a cigarette.

"Wow, Zhonghua." Xu Damao was surprised.

"Ahem!"

Yi Zhonghai coughed twice before saying, "Today is about Lin Shaowen's toilet. You may not know yet? Lin Shaowen built a toilet at home."

Swish!

Everyone looked at Lin Shaowen.

Some were surprised, some were envious, but more were jealous.

Who would like to queue up in the public toilet early in the morning?

"So? Do you have any objections?" Lin Shaowen pouted.

"Of course I have an objection..." Yi Zhonghai slammed the table suddenly, "Who told you to build a toilet in the yard privately? Do you still take us three uncles seriously?"

Many people's eyes were full of gloating.

"Who do you think you are? I should take you seriously." Lin Shaowen said disdainfully.

"Boy, don't be crazy. Believe it or not, I will go to the street office to report you for private renovation..." Liu Haizhong also slammed the table.

"Go, go now, if you don't go you're my grandson." Lin Shaowen said lightly.

"Okay, you're crazy, right?"

Liu Haizhong ran out in a rage.

"Well, one of you ran away in anger..."

Xu Damao muttered.

"Haha!"

Many people laughed.

"Is there anything? If not, I'll go back and rest. I don't have as much energy as you."

Lin Shaowen yawned.

Qin Huairu is really a fairy.

"Of course there's something else." Yi Zhonghai saw that Liu Haizhong hadn't come back yet, and said again, "We actually agree with you repairing the toilet. After all, there are so many elderly people in the courtyard... It's convenient for everyone."

As soon as this was said, it was immediately agreed by most people.

The public toilet is not only used by people in this courtyard, but also by people in other courtyards. Sometimes you have to wait more than ten minutes to go to the toilet, especially in winter, it's freezing cold.

If there is a toilet in the courtyard, it's a great thing.

"Go on."

Lin Shaowen lowered his eyes.

Yi Zhonghai thought he was scared and immediately became excited, "Doctor Xiao Lin, respecting the elderly and loving the young is the virtue of our hospital. The old lady is old, and your yard is big, let her live in your yard, we won't take advantage of you, I, Yi Zhonghai, will give you ten yuan a month as compensation."

"Ten yuan."

Everyone was dumbfounded.

"What about the old lady's food?" Sha Zhu asked.

"Sha Zhu is stupid, ten yuan is naturally for Lin Shaowen to eat together." A neighbor said.

These days, ten yuan is enough to support a family.
