Chapter 122 Small Courtyard
Chapter 122 Small Courtyard
Xu Damao was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Lin Dong to be so straightforward. He was expecting to be lectured again!
When he realized what was happening, he said, "100 yuan, five kilograms of mutton tickets, ten kilograms of eggs tickets, two cans of milk powder tickets, and one kilogram of milk candy tickets."
Lin Dong sighed in his heart. He knew who Xu Damao was going to give these things to.
However, Lin Dong did not plan to get involved in this matter anymore, nor did he want to give Xu Damao any advice. He just had to wait and see what happened.
Lin Dong took the bag without hesitation, counted the bills and money and handed them directly to Xu Damao.
"Hehehe! Thank you, Brother Dong. Thank you, Brother Dong. I promise to return it to you as soon as possible."
"Okay, spend it slowly. You've been promoted to a regular employee, and you'll get an extra ten dollars a month! I'll see when you can save enough money."
Lin Dong didn't have any hope that Xu Damao would be able to pay him back within a year.
The next day, in the south city, the staff quarters of the Kyoto Second Meat Processing Plant
"Hello, I'm looking for Guo Jianping in Room 303, Building ."
Please show your work permit or ID and register here. We will also check the items you bring.
While the security guard was talking to Lin Dong, he also waved to another soldier next to him.
Another young soldier quickly left the security room and walked towards Building No. 2.
Seeing this situation, Lin Dong did not rush to leave after filling out the form.
After putting away the things that the security guard had just checked, he stood there waiting.
The security guard was quite happy to see that Lin Dong did not go in by himself. He did not want to confront people all the time.
"Comrade Lin Dong, you can rest in this lounge first." - The security guard kindly reminded, pointing to the room next door.
"Thank you, comrade. It's just not necessary. The person has arrived." - When Lin Dong spoke, he saw the little girl Guo Linlin running over.
"The road is slippery, walk slowly, don't fall." - Lin Dong hurriedly took a few steps,
"Brother Lin Dong, I missed you so much. Why did you come to see me only now?"
Lin Dong patted Xiao Linlin on the head before turning around, nodding to the security guard and walking into the building.
"Uncle Guo, Aunt Guo, I wish you a happy new year in advance."
"Dongzi, come and sit down. How is your father?"
"I'm in a good mood. I can finally live at home in my old age."
"Come here, Linlin, and see what Brother Lindong brought you?" - As Lindong spoke, he took out a pair of bear-skin boots and a bear-skin scarf with a hood from his canvas bag.
"Donzi, drink a cup of tea first to warm yourself up."
"Thank you Aunt Guo"
"Haha, haha, haha, thank you Brother Lindong." - Little Linlin threw the wool scarf knitted by her mother directly on the sofa.
Just when Lin Dong was visiting Guo Jianping's home, Qin Huairu walked out of the courtyard carrying a basket of vegetables.
Just as he walked out of Nanluoguxiang and entered Nanchunmingxiang, Xu Damao walked out of a courtyard gate.
Qin Huairu obviously did not expect Xu Damao to block her here, and subconsciously looked around to see if there were any acquaintances near the intersections.
"Sister Qin, I've prepared some mutton and milk powder for you. Go buy some groceries after you finish your meal."
"No, the smell is too strong. Last time I ate mutton, Jia Dongxu was suspicious."
"The main reason is that last time it was Donglaishun. If you stayed there for a while longer, you would definitely smell like mutton. This time, just rinse your mouth more and I guarantee you won't smell it."
Xu Damao was already prepared, so he didn't care whether Qin Huairu agreed or not.
Seeing that Xu Damao was about to take action, Qin Huairu had no choice but to follow him into the yard.
He didn't dare to flirt with Xu Damao outside.
Seeing this small courtyard with three main rooms and two side rooms, Qin Huairu understood that Xu Damao had planned this in advance.
I have to say that the location of this courtyard gate is very cleverly chosen.
Qin Huairu had to pass by here when buying vegetables, and then turn a corner to see the gate of the courtyard. This way, she didn't have to worry about meeting acquaintances when going out or coming in.
There is also a disadvantage, which you can smell as soon as you walk to the gate of this yard, that is the smell of urine. It is obvious that this yard is used as a toilet by passers-by.
"Did you buy or rent this small courtyard? I heard that housing is quite tight right now. Don't do anything rash, or you might cause trouble for your parents."
Sister Qin, don't worry. I didn't rent or buy this courtyard. Am I that kind of person? How could I do such an unreliable thing? I borrowed it from a friend.
There was nothing wrong with what Xu Damao said. He had indeed not registered with the street office. He only had a note saying he was renting the house and was nominally helping someone look after the house.
It was agreed that he would give him a red envelope of 50 yuan a year, and the house would be in the home of Zhao Lei, his colleague in the Propaganda Department.
This was originally the residence of Zhao Lei's grandparents, but it has been vacant since they passed away in August this year.
Because Zhao Lei's family has no shortage of houses, he and his parents live in a private house with seven main rooms!
To talk about this matter, it is Lin Dong who has made great contributions! When we chat a lot, we will unconsciously talk about the issue of housing. After all, this is a matter of great importance to the whole nation.
Lin Dong said that it would be difficult to get back a house that has been rented out.
A few friends would naturally be curious about why Lin Dong had such an idea.
Lin Dong has always had the tendency to show off in front of his relatives and friends, so he gave them a brief analysis.
Lin Dong said at the time that the house was rented out through the street office, which then rented the house to the workers after coordinating with various units.
The homeowner wants to take the house back directly from the resident, but the resident will definitely not agree.
Because the residents have never rented the house from the landlord, why should they move?
Don’t say that the house is yours. The residents will not recognize it at all. They only recognize the country.
In the end, this issue can only be resolved through the joint efforts of the street office and the work unit. There are too many workers renting houses, and the only one who will suffer is the landlord.
Although the pronunciation is unclear, everyone can understand the general meaning.
It was with this reason that Xu Damao persuaded Zhao Lei not to hand over the house to the street office, but to let him live there temporarily.
Xu Damao obviously forgot that he had two houses under his name. If someone reported it, he would definitely be the one to bear the brunt of the consequences.
Qin Huairu obviously didn't believe this. Who has a problem? Lending a yard, but Xu Damao didn't say anything, Qin Huairu had no choice.
"Sister Qin, look at this copper pot. It's beautiful. I bought it at a trust store. During the Qing Dynasty, only the rich and powerful could afford it. This thing cost me 20 yuan."
"Da Mao, tell me the truth, how did you know I was going to sell vegetables today? If I didn't go, all your preparations would have been in vain."
"It's so cold, and it's so late now. There are only a few people selling vegetables, except for radishes and cabbages."
"You're going to buy some big bones, right? This idiot Jia Dongxu is really lucky."
Qin Huairu then remembered that she had been drinking quite regularly recently, and five or six pounds of pork bones were just enough for Jia Dongxu to drink for three days.
There is not a single bit of meat on the big bones now, they are picked out very cleanly.
Ordinary people simply don't buy them because the coal or firewood used is more expensive than big bones.
When there is a patient at home, some Chinese medicine practitioners will prescribe a recipe of large bones and ask the poor family to boil it for the patient to drink.
