Siheyuan: I am stupid, I don't want to be a bootlicker

"Are you trying to say that Uncle Er has a problem with his brain, or is he stupid?"

"Yes, that's what it means."

Lou Xiao'e nodded. She felt that after all, the second uncle was an elder, and it was inappropriate for her to use words like "brain-problematic, stupid".

But, that’s what I actually thought in my heart.

"Look at that time when Second Auntie was catching a gangster in the yard, how generous he was when he gave money to Hua Qingqing?

Although he was not so extravagant towards Qin Huairu, she would often go to his house and he was never without money when he came back.

How come he is so reluctant to give up this and that even when it comes to his own grandson?

Just because of a bite of egg, a few peanuts and a bit of meat, the child was beaten like that.

He is already a grandfather and is so fat. It shouldn't be too much to let his two grandchildren eat a little, right?

Look at the old man and the old woman. Ever since they had Xiaojun and Lingxi, they have been willing to give their hearts to the two children.

The couple, who used to be very frugal, now eat meat and eggs, buy fruits and toys every other day.

Look at the old man in the front yard. We didn’t talk about him when he was poor, but now that he lives a good life, he really wants to pick the moon even if he can’t even get the stars in the sky for Tutu.

Once you get to Second Master, everything changes."

He Yuzhu couldn't help laughing when he heard his wife say this:

“Some people’s brain circuits are different from others.

People say that capable men are powerful outside, but they are good guys at home and have no temper at all.

A man without any ability is like a dog outside and wags his tail at everyone he sees, but he becomes very powerful when he gets home. He has no other ability except being a bully at home.

The Second Master is probably this kind of person!"

The couple chatted for a while and then arrived at the street office. He Yuzhu dropped his wife off and went to the steel rolling mill himself.

After entering the cafeteria, I first took a look at the kitchen. Seeing that everyone was busy, I went into my office.

Just as he finished what he was supposed to do, Liu Lan came over and asked him to cook for the canteen.

He Yuzhu stood up from his chair and walked outside, saying:

"Three... Section Chief Yan said that you should go to his house when you have time and talk in detail about your child's schooling."

"Hey, hey, I see. I'll have time after get off work today, okay?"

When Liu Lan heard that there was hope for her child to go to school, she couldn't help but smile.

He Yuzhu nodded: "Okay, I'm going to the street office to pick up my wife after get off work, you can borrow a bicycle and go with me."

"Hey, then I'll go get ready at noon."

Liu Lan knew that no matter whether the matter could be accomplished or not, she must not go to the guest's house empty-handed.

"By the way, Section Chief Yan has a grandson who is two years old this year."

He Yuzhu reminded Liu Lan.

Liu Lan was a smart person. She knew that this was telling him that it would be better to bring something for the child as well. She immediately nodded and thanked He Yuzhu.

In the afternoon, He Yuzhu went to Deputy Director Li's office and said that he would go to check on Xu Xiaohu's condition the next day at noon. Deputy Director Li immediately agreed to go with him.

After strolling around the street, meeting with various patrol teams and making sure that nothing was happening on the street, He Yuzhu returned to the steel rolling mill.

Liu Lan was already waiting for him. When she saw him coming, she immediately got on her bicycle and went to the street office with him.

When he picked up his wife and walked to the door, he happened to meet the third uncle coming back from school. He Yuzhu immediately stopped his bicycle:

"Hey, Third Uncle, you're just in time."

He Yuzhu stopped the third uncle and introduced him:

"This is the Liu Lan from our factory that I told you about. Her child is about to go to elementary school."

After saying that, he turned to look at Liu Lan:

"Liu Lan, this is our school's third uncle, the head of the logistics department of Red Star Primary School, Chief Yan!"

Liu Lan immediately reached out and shook hands with the Third Uncle:

"Hello, Chief Yan, I'm Liu Lan."

"Hey, hey, hey, hello, hello, just call me Lao Yan."

The two of them exchanged a few polite words. Seeing this, He Yuzhu said, "You guys chat, I'll go home first," and then went home.

When He Yuzhu returned home, he saw his mother-in-law playing with little Jiji, while his father-in-law, the deaf old lady and his daughter-in-law were sitting at the table eating.

He washed his hands, sat down and started eating from his bowl.

"Zhu Zi, I want to tell you something. Please give the chief of staff some advice."

The deaf old lady suddenly put down her chopsticks and looked up at He Yuzhu.

"what's up?"

He Yuzhu ate while smiling and joking:

"Why, do you want me to keep the coffin book for your eldest grandson?"

When the deaf old lady heard this, she couldn't help laughing and scolding:

"You little bastard, you earn a lot of money every month, and you're still thinking about my coffin money?

It's Liu Haizhong's family. Second Aunt came to discuss with me this morning and said that I have an empty room and want to rent it to Guangtian's family.

The rent is three dollars a month. If I agree, let Guangtian and his family move in as soon as possible."

As soon as He Yuzhu heard it, he knew that this must be the instruction given by the second aunt to Qiu Haifeng.

If the two families don't stir the same pot, there will naturally be fewer conflicts.

"Hehe, this is a good thing, but you can only rent this house to Second Aunt, not to Liu Guangtian."

He Yuzhu knew what the deaf old lady was worried about.

They were simply afraid that Liu Guangtian would rent the house for too long and live there without moving out, and that the house would eventually become his own.

Therefore, renting the house directly to Auntie is the best option.

“Also, when renting a house, you and Second Auntie should go to the Street Office again and rent the house to Second Auntie in the name of the Street Office.

This way, no matter what happens, the house will never belong to anyone else."

According to the current policy, ordinary people cannot rent out their houses privately.

Many local people in the old city are rich peasants or middle peasants, and they have many houses left by their ancestors. Naturally, the street office cannot forcibly reclaim people's houses.

If these people have vacant houses to rent out, they go to the street office to report it, and then ask the street office to rent it out.

The residents’ rent is also paid to the street office, which then transfers it to the household owner.

Of course, the street office will charge a little handling fee, which is understandable.

The house that He Yuzhu and his family live in now was allocated by the street office. The ownership belongs to the street office. This house can only be lived in and cannot be passed on to the next generation.

He Yuzhu didn't know how the deaf old lady managed to get the two houses in the backyard under her name.

But the old lady owns these two houses, they belong to her.

So, when it came to renting a house, Second Aunt really found the right person.

The reason why the deaf old lady asked He Yuzhu about this was that she didn't want to go through the street office and put all the three dollars into her own pocket.

However, I was also afraid that the house would be taken away by Liu Guangtian in the end.

When the deaf old lady heard He Yuzhu asking her to go to the street office, she felt a little reluctant.

He Yuzhu saw what she was thinking and immediately smiled:

"Oh my, my old lady, you are getting more and more confused as you age. The street office has received some handling fees and can guarantee that this house will always be yours.

If you don't give them this little money, you either won't collect the rent, or the house will end up belonging to someone else. Don't you know which is more important?"

The deaf old lady glared at He Yuzhu and stopped talking.

After dinner, He Yuzhu took little Jiji for a stroll on the street, and the deaf old lady went back to the backyard to find the second aunt.

Liu Haizhong was sitting in the room with a gloomy face. He glared at his son Liu Guangtian from time to time, and then glared at the second aunt from time to time.

Liu Guangtian sat on the chair with his head down and didn't say anything. His wife Qiu Haifeng stood beside him.

To be honest, he was also very tempted by his mother's decision to move out.

Although, I have to pay three dollars in rent every month.

However, he is now an electrician in a steel mill, earning about 30 yuan a month, so he can afford the rent of 3 yuan.

Moreover, who knows, the house might end up in your hands.

As a witness to corporal punishment, he has always thought since childhood that when he grows up, he will never educate his children in this way.

It has only been two or three months since he returned, and his two sons have been beaten more than they have ever been in their entire lives.

His wife is so heartbroken that she cries every night. Doesn’t he feel heartbroken too?

However, he knew his father too well and knew what kind of person his father was, so it was a waste of time to talk to him.

This is refusing to communicate!

Besides, his mother also said that she could help with the monthly rent.

Liu Guangtian was very excited, and he knew his wife was even more excited.

The only one in the family who disagreed was his father. As soon as he heard that he was going to rent a house, he immediately started losing his temper and starting swearing.

The two sons were so frightened that they ran into their daughter-in-law's arms, and he sent them to the inner room to sleep.

When the deaf old lady opened the door and came in, the second uncle had just finished scolding someone and was sitting on the kang table angrily.

As soon as he saw her come in, he knew she was talking about the house, and he started to lose his temper again:

"Hey, old lady, it's dark now, what are you doing here at my house?"

The deaf old lady was already a little unhappy when she decided to rent a house from the street office after hearing what her grandson said.

This time, Liu Haizhong retorted to me as soon as I entered the door. How could I feel good about it?

He immediately frowned, looked up at Liu Haizhong and asked:

"What's the matter, Liu Haizhong? I, an old lady, can't enter your room now?"

Seeing that the old lady was angry, Liu Haizhong didn't dare to say anything and just glanced at her.

"Aunt, I came here today to tell you that I agree to rent that room to you for three dollars a month.

After breakfast tomorrow morning, we will go to the street office to take care of this matter.

You can use the furniture in my room as you like. Haifeng and the children can stay here tonight."

After saying this angrily, the deaf old lady glared at Liu Haizhong again, turned around and walked out.

The second aunt didn't react until the old lady left the house, and she quickly agreed to go out and see the old lady off.

When Qiu Haifeng heard that the old lady was willing to rent a house to her, a smile finally appeared on her face, and she couldn't help but glance at Liu Guangtian.

When Liu Guangtian heard that the deaf old lady was willing to rent a house to him, he was very happy.

Later, when I heard that the house was rented to her mother and that she still had to go through the street office, my happiness suddenly diminished a bit.

"Humph, this old woman is really smart!"

He muttered something secretly, and when he looked up, he saw his wife looking at him, and a smile immediately appeared on his face.

No matter what, at least the two sons don't have to suffer anymore when they live separately.

"Humph, this is a rebellion, it's totally against the will of heaven!"

Liu Haizhong felt even more unhappy when he saw that everyone in his family was happy and no one paid any attention to him.

However, now that both grandchildren were asleep and his son was tall and strong, it was difficult for him to do anything, so he had to hold his anger in.

The second aunt sent the deaf old lady back home. When she got home, she glanced at her daughter-in-law and immediately smiled and said:

"Okay, Haifeng, let's go over there and pack up tomorrow morning and move in. You've seen the old lady's room, and it can be lived in after a simple cleanup.
