Siheyuan: I, the eldest son of the Liu family, will enter the department!

……

Next.

The Liu family members were not in a hurry to go back, but planned to stay in the ministry staff housing and have dinner before going back.

According to Liu Guangqi's original intention, he wanted to take them out to a restaurant.

after all!

The First Ministry of Machine Building's compound has a complete range of self-built supporting facilities.

There are canteens, grocery stores, bathhouses, hospitals, schools, and even sports fields. It is extremely convenient.

“What a waste of money eating out is!”

did not expect!

As soon as the proposal was put forward, it was rejected by the second aunt.

She glared at Liu Guangqi, her tone full of heartache: "You just spent so much money at the state-owned store. Your salary didn't come from the wind. Spend it sparingly!"

"There's meat and vegetables at home, mom will cook them for you!"

Liu Haizhong was originally fiddling with the professional books on the bookshelf, but he only had an elementary school education and couldn't understand them.

Then he cleared his throat and acted like the head of the family.

He agreed in a deep voice: "Your mother is right!"

"Let's eat at home. It's a good opportunity to see what cooking is like in your building."

He actually couldn't bear to do it.

He is proud of his son's success, but money still needs to be spent wisely.

After all, they had already spent so much money in state-owned stores before, and they really couldn't bear to let their son spend any more money.

I don't know.

Now, as a section chief at administrative level 16, Liu Guangqi’s basic salary is more than 110 yuan per month.

The money he spent before couldn’t make him poor!

But no matter what.

Since they didn't want to go out to eat, Liu Guangqi didn't force them. Since they wanted to cook at home, he let them do as they pleased.

that's it!

Second Auntie started cooking quickly and started cooking in the public kitchen in the corridor.

This is what the ministry’s tube-shaped building looks like!

Everything else is fine, except this kitchen, which is shared.

"Shoot-"

The fat and lean meat slices were put into the pot, and the rich meat aroma instantly filled the entire corridor.

Brothers Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu!

Like two little greedy cats, they were clinging to the window, their saliva almost dripping.

"Mom's cooking smells so good!"

Soon, four large plates of steaming food were served on the table.

Stir-fried pork slices, spicy stir-fried cabbage, braised pork, spicy shredded potatoes, plus a large bowl of broth with oil floating in it.

Otherwise, there wouldn’t be enough food for a family of five with two half-grown kids!

……

……

The whole family sat around the table.

The heating in the room was strong enough that I felt warm even wearing only a thin layer of clothes.

This is a world of difference from the embarrassment of sitting around a coal stove in a courtyard, eating hot meals and worrying about the food getting cold.

The two guys, Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu, could no longer hold back.

Just throw your arms around and eat!

With his mouth full, he still murmured in praise: "Brother, your family is so nice!"

"It's not even cold enough for eating!"

Liu Haizhong took a sip of tea and said with some emotion:

"call……"

"Guangqi, having a meal here is more comfortable than eating at a state-owned restaurant!"

These words come from the heart.

In a state-owned restaurant, eating is a matter of face and is for outsiders to see.

But here with Liu Guangqi.

Heating, hot tea, and a clean and tidy house, this is real comfort, comfort to the core.

Upon hearing this, Liu Guangqi smiled faintly and said, "Dad, if you like, come often in the future. There will be plenty of opportunities."

Finally, the meal was finished.

Even Liu Haizhong and Second Auntie couldn't help but sigh that this courtyard was more comfortable than a siheyuan!

To know!

The water for the courtyard needs to be shared by the well in the yard.

Heating depends on coal stoves, and even old houses are not well sealed, so it is common for people to freeze to death in winter.

There are a lot of rats at night!

But in Liu Guangqi's building, there are obviously no such troubles.

Not only are there electric lights and running water, but the house also has centralized heating provided by the ministry. It's like summer in the house, and there's no need to use a kang to keep warm.

Let’s put it this way—

The tube-shaped building in the ministerial compound has everything except an independent kitchen.

No wonder so many people want to live in tube-shaped buildings!

……

……

Had a meal.

Liu Haizhong and Second Auntie obviously couldn't stay any longer!

The New Year's goods purchased in this large-scale purchase were immediately divided into two parts, most of which were left with Liu Guangqi.

They picked up the other part and prepared to return to the courtyard!

Don't underestimate their small part!

In fact, it was much more than the New Year's goods purchased by ordinary families. There was no other way, because Liu Guangqi took out all the receipts he had saved this time.

even.

Even the bills at home were exchanged for various supplies.

You can imagine how many there are!

In fact.

Liu Guangqi, who is well aware of the three-year natural disaster, will continue to purchase supplies in the days to come.

As for whether to tell other people.

He is not that great!

Putting aside whether others will listen to him, he has lived two lives and knows better than anyone that some things are meaningless to do.

The right thing to do is to let go of the desire to help others!

These days, we’re not afraid of you being indifferent, we’re just afraid of you being a saint.

Helping others is a good thing, but not all help will be appreciated and recognized.

Sheng Mien, fight against Mien.

Instead of talking nonsense and causing dislike, it is better to close the door and live your own peaceful life.

----------

Coming out of the ministry compound.

On the way back to the courtyard, Liu Haizhong rode his new bicycle and Liu Guangqi followed beside him.

Visible to the naked eye!

After riding to Nanluoguxiang, Liu Haizhong's waist became straighter.

Wait until someone asks Lao Liu if he bought a car!

He replied with a smile: "Yes! My son, Guangqi, got a bicycle ticket as a reward from the department at the end of the year. This filial child insisted that I buy it for him..."

Liu Guangqi just smiled and said nothing.

He knew his father's character very well, so the reason why he had to come back in the afternoon was purely to show off and let everyone see him before it got dark.

For Liu Pangpang...

I have already bought a bicycle. If I don't pretend to be cool, wouldn't that be like walking in the night in fine clothes?

Just entered the alley.

Then I ran into the third uncle Yan Bugui, who came out carrying an empty oil bottle.

The latter glanced at it.
