The eldest of the Yan family in the Siheyuan

Chapter 197 Xu Damao's Father Returns to the Compound

Yan Jiecheng looked at Xu Damao calmly, but he didn't expect the old boy to react very quickly.

After Xu Damao and Carpenter Wang exchanged houses, there were five rear rooms in the backyard, and their house occupied three rooms, and one room in the west wing.

If you want to change the location with the old Li's house, put the three back rooms next to each other and build a wall in the middle of the yard.

The entire backyard was divided into two, and Xu Damao's family took up three-fifths, directly turning it into a single family courtyard.The second uncle, Lao Li's family and another family accounted for two-fifths.

There is a moon gate on each side leading to the middle courtyard, and no one will hinder anyone at that time.

It's just that the second uncle will definitely not agree, and he will definitely make trouble for him at that time.

Yan Jiecheng was perfunctory with Xu Damao while thinking. "Hey, I didn't think too much about it. I just thought it would be convenient to live in the front yard."

He was quite happy to hear Yan Jiecheng say that Xu Damao was complacent. It seemed that he was smart, and he was the first to think of it: "It's not too late. I will find someone to build a wall in the middle courtyard after changing the house tomorrow, and then I will build a wall in the courtyard." Build a pavilion, and I'll see how he manages his bangs."

"You don't know how unlucky I am. I live in the same hospital as Liu Haizhong. Usually, this old guy often troubles me."

"Cough, cough, let's not talk about these unpleasant things, isn't the matter of this house settled, let's continue drinking." Yan Xiecheng didn't want to talk about the second uncle in front of Xu Damao, so he quickly changed the subject.

…………

Yan Jiecheng returned to the front yard after eating at Xu Damao's house.Yu Li didn't sleep, she was still sitting on a chair waiting for him, seeing Yan Jiecheng came back, got up to take Yan Jiecheng's coat and asked:
"Why have you been eating for so long? Did Xu Damao ask you for something? Otherwise, why did he think of inviting you to drink and come to his house to invite you?"

Yan Jiecheng pulled a stool and sat down, then replied: "I really let you talk, it's really something. Originally, he wanted to buy a house with our family, but I didn't agree. Finally, I gave him an idea, use his Mom and Dad's house is exchanged with Carpenter Wang's."

"Will Carpenter Wang agree?"

"Xu Damao subsidized him 250 yuan, you said he agreed."

"Ah! So much money? Why don't you sell our house to him?" Yu Li heard that Xu Damao could pay so much for another house. If she sold the house to him, it would be a big profit.

Yan Jiecheng gave her an annoyed look: "You think you're the only one who is smart? Xu Damao is thinking of dividing the backyard into two. Just watch, our courtyard is lively again these days."

"Okay, don't ask me any more, just pour me some hot water and let me soak my feet. You'll know about it in a few days."

…………

The next morning.

Xu Damao didn't even go to work, so Wang Dani asked him to ask for leave, went to his parents first, and told his parents about the house change.

Then he came back and dragged Wang Dazhi to the street office to go through the formalities of changing houses.

Then Xu Damao didn't know what price he paid, and changed the location of the house with Lao Li's house, and moved the three back rooms together.

When Yan Jiecheng came back from get off work at night, he saw Xu Damao directing several workers at the gate of the compound, carrying bricks, cement, and sand into the yard one by one.

A group of neighbors surrounded him, and Xu Damao's father was among them, chatting and laughing with Yan Bugui.

To say that Xu Damao's father is also a character, he is ruthless in his work, cunning and scheming.

But their calculations are not the same as Yan Bugui and Yi Zhonghai's calculations. Yan Bugui counts peanuts and melon seeds, and Yi Zhonghai counts them as fools to give him old age.

But Xu's father is all about the house, even if he is calculating for the pension, he has paid for it. If nothing else, Dahu's job is also taken over by Xu's father. Jin said no, so he didn't want it, Yi Zhonghai couldn't compare with others.

People don't care about these three melons and dates. When Lou Xiaoe and Xu Damao divorced, the subsidy to their family was enough for him to spend his whole life.

Moreover, this person is of the same generation as Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong, He Daqing, and Yan Bugui.

He was about the same age as He Daqing, and even Liu Haizhong would call out Brother Xu when he saw him, and now their backyard was quite noisy.

"Xie Cheng, come here quickly, look who's here." Yan Bugui saw Yan Xiecheng who was off work hurriedly waved him over, pointed to Xu's father and said to him with a smile.

Yan Jiecheng heard Yan Bugui tell him to step forward quickly and called "Uncle Xu" to Xu Damao's father.

"Old Yan, I have been away for more than ten years. In the blink of an eye, your children are so old. I heard that your eldest daughter-in-law gave birth to twins." Xu's father said with some emotion, thinking that Xu Damao would not be able to have children. My heart hurts.

"It's not twins, it's a boy and a girl." Yan Bugui corrected Father Xu with a smile.

While they were talking, Liu Haizhong also came back from work, watching Xu Damao commanding people to move bricks and sand into the yard at the gate.

He didn't notice that Xu's father was also here, so he walked over and stopped the workers who were moving the bricks.

He thought that Xu Damao was going to build a house in the backyard, but he blocked it last time. It's only been a few days, and he didn't expect Xu Damao to be ready to move again.

"Second uncle, what do you mean?" Xu Damao saw that Liu Haizhong had stopped the brick-moving worker, so he hurried over and said to him.

"What do I mean, I told you last time, as long as I'm around for a day, you don't want to occupy the space in the yard. Are you taking what I said as a fart?" Liu Haizhong didn't understand the situation. Seeing Xu Damao is a meal.

"Liu Haizhong, I'll call you second uncle, don't be shameless. Get out of the way quickly, or don't blame me for being rude to you."

"Da Mao, how do you talk? It doesn't matter whether it's big or small. I usually teach you like this." Xu's father turned his head to Liu Haizhong while teaching Xu Damao a lesson, and said, "Old Liu, I'm really sorry, this kid didn't teach Okay, take it easy and tell me if you have anything to say."

Liu Haizhong looked at Xu's father. He hadn't seen him for more than ten years and didn't recognize him, but he looked familiar.

"You are?" Liu Haizhong adjusted his glasses and stared at Father Xu and asked.

"Old Liu, you don't know this person anymore? You have lived together in the backyard for such a long time. This is Lao Xu, Da Mao's father." Yan Bugui looked at Liu Haizhong and did not recognize Xu's father, so Step forward and explain to him.

"You...you...how did you come back?" Liu Haizhong stammered a little before he could react.

Xu's father smiled: "Hey, isn't this Da Mao's filial piety? Seeing that I am old, I am afraid that I will not be able to take care of me if I am far away, so I changed my house with the old Wang's."
