Siheyuan: Relieve stress and relieve worries

Chapter 856 Buying a New Yard
After this period of turmoil, the lives of the people here have gradually calmed down. Apart from Xiaowu giving everyone surprises from time to time, nothing special happens.

However, Qi Dasheng moved from the backyard to the front yard again, and added a door at the second door, which is the hanging flower door. There was no door originally, and this addition separated the front yard from the backyard. Wang Zhan asked his master, and his master replied that he would use the front yard, so in order not to disturb his and his sister's lives, a door was added.

Qi Dasheng also reminded that the front yard should be kept closed when not in use, as there would be a lot of people coming in the future.

Because of this incident, the doors to Wang Zhan's backyard and front yard were closed. Even Dayu and Xiaoyu moved to the garden in the backyard and no longer went to the front yard.

The fourth and fifth graders haven't come for a long time, mainly because their grades have surprised their families, and they don't have time to show off by visiting friends and relatives when school starts. The time dominated by their parents is always so miserable.

Wang Zhan still has an indifferent attitude towards life and lives a routine life every day.

Normally, Wang Zhan would feel worried when he saw Jinbao. Jinbao was a mountain dog. This dog had never gone out since it entered the Wang family. Wang Zhan was worried that it would gradually degenerate into a domestic dog if it lived like this. This problem had always been in Wang Zhan's mind. He had never told anyone about it, but he was also thinking about ways to change it.

Just as August began, Fei Qing came once. The first thing he asked when he saw Wang Zhan was, "Brother Zhan, do you want to learn how to shoot a gun?"

Wang Zhan looked at him curiously. Just as he was about to speak, the door was pushed open and he saw Sha Zhu walking in with a reed chicken. Seeing Wang Zhan, he said unceremoniously, "Boy, you are in for a treat. Have you ever seen an authentic free-range reed rooster? I got lucky today. I found it at the market."

After saying that, without even Wang Zhan's greeting, he ran towards the small kitchen in the northeast corner. Yes, you read that right. Ever since the last incident, Sha Zhu has focused his main attention on Yu Shui. So, he would run to Wang Zhan's yard whenever he had nothing to do, without anyone greeting him. Besides, the two directors both lived here, and he was close to them because they had helped him a lot.

Everyone can see the changes in Sha Zhu, but the changes in that courtyard are weird and unpredictable. First of all, the food of the Jia family has been improved to a higher level. For some reason, the Jia family suddenly became rich, and the standard of the food has also been improved.

The Yi couple next door became even more low-key. Except for going to the old lady's house in the backyard, they did not allow much contact with others. This made everyone speculate. Only Sha Zhu seemed to know something, but he just laughed it off no matter who asked. He just stayed away from these families from then on.

Sha Zhu is called Sha Zhu, but he is not really stupid. Except that he has some thoughts about Qin Huairu who lives in the west wing opposite, he knows everything else. This time, Director Li has actually made a great effort, and he knows it himself, so he still listens to Director Li.

So this silly Zhu changed. He became attached to his sister and would run to this courtyard whenever he had nothing to do and never go back. He cleaned the west wing where he lived last time by himself. Wang Zhan didn't care about him when he saw it, but just reminded him that this was the room of the three brothers. He Yuzhu didn't care about that at all and moved in directly with his bedding.

Wang Zhan sometimes asked He Yushui, "What's wrong with your brother? Why doesn't he live in such a big house and comes to live with me?"

He Yushui rolled her eyes at him and said, "There are no good people in that yard. Besides, didn't you see Lili and the two kids hanging around Shazhu? If you chase him away, the three kids won't be happy." Wang Zhan also noticed that Shazhu had become close friends with the kids, so he didn't say anything. Besides, it wasn't a big deal to have one more person in the yard, so he didn't care too much.

At this time, the courtyard of No. 95 was in an uproar. First, the old lady in the backyard could no longer sit still. She used her own connections to help Sha Zhu reduce the risk to a minimum, but after Sha Zhu came out, she almost never came to the backyard. The most important thing was that it was heard that Sha Zhu no longer fired in the yard.

This is unbearable. This is what the old lady least wants to see. What does she want? Just a bite of food. If Shazhu doesn't cook, whose food will she eat? She can only make do with a bite of the old lady's food, which is still far from good enough.

As for the eldest uncle's family, Yi Zhonghai has already analyzed his pros and cons. He feels that Sha Zhu has already noticed his actions. As for the compensation to the Jia family, he doesn't care too much. Anyway, the bulk of it is paid by the old lady, and the idea was also decided by the old lady. The executor is Jia Zhang. As for why it was her, Yi Zhonghai didn't think much about it.

Facts are facts. It doesn't matter how much Director Li knew in the end. He finally told Sha Zhu the whole story. As for how much Sha Zhu analyzed, it was not within Director Li's consideration.

After this incident, Sha Zhu was scared, but it also made him want to get close to Director Li. Fortunately, Director Li was a simple soldier and he said whatever he wanted to say. He talked a lot to Sha Zhu, which made Sha Zhu focus on his sister.

He Yushui was extremely happy and had been very proud of herself recently, so proud that she even forgot about Wang Zhan. In fact, not only she had forgotten about him, but even Wang Zhan's sister hadn't paid any attention to him recently. Wang Li was directly attracted by Sha Zhu's delicious food.

Wang Zhan didn't care. He was thinking about another thing, which was to buy a yard. Director Wang knew his idea and wanted to report it, because if he reported it, it might be possible to apply for a building for Wang Zhan.

Wang Zhan himself didn't have that idea, so he stopped Director Wang's action and told her directly that he wanted to buy a yard, even if it was damaged, it didn't matter, he had the money to repair it.

Director Wang was delighted when he heard this. Wasn't this a good deal for himself? The east wing of No. 95 Courtyard in the alley behind was an abandoned yard. It was a relic of the war, and the street office didn't have the extra money to repair it. Wang Zhan was a wealthy man, and Director Wang knew that Wang Zhan had money, so he planned to sell the east wing to him. Half of the proceeds would be handed over to the street office, and the other half would be kept. How great! Everyone was happy.

Wang Zhan went to take a look and thought the area was big enough, but it was shabby. However, he didn't care because he had money and could change its appearance, so he decided to buy it.

The whole yard cost 800 yuan, to be paid in one lump sum. This was Director Wang's plan. Wang Zhan gave in. The subsequent repairs had to be paid for by Wang Zhan himself, but Wang Zhan didn't care. He found nearby maintenance personnel, but no one dared to take the job because it was a big job to build a yard. In the end, the job was pushed back and forth and finally to a member of the Lei family who lived a little further away in Shajing Hutong.

On this day, Wang Zhan went to the house in person and brought gifts.
