The courtyard house is divided into a front yard and a back yard, and the back yard is also called the inner house. The front yard is composed of a gatehouse and an inverted seat room, a moon gate connecting the front and back yards, and a back yard is composed of east and west wings, main rooms and verandahs. The old man lived in an inverted room in the front yard, which was full of calligraphy, paintings, porcelain, a table of eight immortals, four carved chairs, and a large wooden bed looming behind a mahogany carved screen.

The old man handed the signed rental contract to Wu Fan: "You can take this, go back to the neighborhood committee to issue a certificate, and then go to the police station to apply for a temporary residence permit." ”

"Uncle, how is the neighborhood committee going?" Wu Fan asked while taking the contract and handing over a wad of money to the old man.

The old man took the money and counted the money, without raising his head: "Out of the alley, walk west to the two alleys and turn right for about 200 meters." ”

Wu Fan: "Thank you, I'll go apply for a temporary residence permit"

Wu Fan turned around and was about to leave, but was stopped by the old man: "Wait", the old man said while carrying the money in his pocket: "Don't forget to make a copy of your ID card"

Wu Fan nodded: "Okay"

At first glance, Beijing's hutongs are all gray walls and gray tiles, one look. In fact, as long as you are willing to put in some effort, string up a few alleys, and then chat with the old residents for a while, you will find that each alley has a story, its own story, and a legendary experience, and there are many interesting anecdotes in it.

Wu Fan walked out of the alley and found the neighborhood committee according to the route the old man said.

An aunt warmly entertained Wu Fan: "Young man, please take a seat, do you have something to do?"

Wu Fan: "I'll issue a certificate and go to the police station to apply for a temporary residence permit." ”

Aunt: "Okay, do you have all your ID card, work permit and housing lease contract?"

Wu Fan scratched his head: "Auntie, I have the ID card and the housing contract, is this work permit... I just came to Beijing and haven't found a job yet..."

When the aunt heard Wu Fan say this, her attitude turned a little cold: "If you don't have a work permit, then I can't give you this certificate, you have to have a certificate from the unit, young man, you better go back and find a job first to open a certificate!"

Wu Fan was a little annoyed: "Auntie, when I was looking for a job, they asked me to get a temporary residence permit, and when I came to you, you asked me to get a work permit, how can I find a job if I don't have a temporary residence permit, how can I have a work permit if I don't have a job!?"

The aunt was very calm: "I can't control this, you look at the rules on the wall..."

Wu Fan turned his head and thought to himself: What is the matter? I just rented a house but I can't get a temporary residence permit, how can I find a job without a temporary residence permit, can't I find a job, isn't the house rented for nothing? What should I do in the future?

Wu Fan was very disappointed, just when he hesitated whether to go back first to think of a way, Wu Fan's eyes lit up, he saw the last line of the "Rules and Regulations" (special circumstances, special handling) Wu Fan thought of the "pass" issued to him by Instructor Hao Gang, and he reached out to touch it in his coat.

"Young man, what are you going to do, you have something to say..."When the aunt saw Wu Fan's abnormal movements, she reacted greatly... She had seen a report that not long ago, because other neighborhood committees did not give a certificate, an outsider stabbed and injured the supervisor of the neighborhood committee with a knife, resulting in a bloody case...

Wu Fan was also startled when he saw his aunt's reaction, he slowly took out the "pass" from his coat and handed it to his aunt: "Auntie, do you think this is a condition for "special affairs"?"

Auntie's hand trembled a little, she took the "pass" with the words and seal of the government department and looked at it carefully, and then looked at Wu Fan in front of her: "Young man, this is okay, should you take out the soap spot with this "pass" aunt said and covered her chest with her hand, and said with palpitations.

Wu Fan handed over his ID card and the house lease contract together, and the aunt looked at it carefully: "You rent a courtyard house in ✘✘ strip ✘✘?!" When the aunt saw Wu Fan's house lease contract, she was a little surprised.

"Yes, the contract just signed" puzzled the aunt's expression, Wu Fan replied affirmatively.

"Haha, it's really a big flood that washed the Dragon King Temple, and the family doesn't recognize the family! Xiao Wu, in fact, we live in the same courtyard..."The aunt blamed herself a little embarrassed: "Blame me... Why didn't you look at the lease contract first!?"

Wu Fan felt strange: "Auntie, do you also live ✘✘✘✘?"

The smile on the aunt's face when she first met again: "Well, we will be neighbors in the future, my surname is Wu, Wu Zetian's Wu, you can call me Aunt Wu in the future, I live in the main house in the backyard, you live in the west wing, you live in the east wing, a couple, the man is a taxi driver, and the woman is a nurse in the ×× hospital..."

"Auntie, you can't be blamed for this, you also do things according to the rules, is this also what your work needs!" Wu Fan really didn't blame Auntie, but was happy to have such a serious neighbor.

Seeing that Wu Fan didn't blame herself, the aunt didn't slack off anymore, and quickly gave Wu Fan a certificate, and told Wu Fan the route to the police station, as well as who to find at the police station, and what to do with the temporary residence permit.

There are two flowers, one on each branch. Let's not talk about Wu Fan's temporary residence permit, let's talk about Gu Xiaotang's appointment to drink.

In the private room of Donglaishun, the charcoal and copper pot on the table are steaming, and all kinds of vegetables, beef and mutton are placed on a large table... The few people sitting around the table didn't say anything, and they all lowered their heads to think, but Gu Xiaotang opened the silence.

Gu Xiaotang picked up the glass full of beer and stood up: "Everyone, today is the day when Wu Fan recovers from his injuries and is discharged from the hospital, everyone has worked hard these days, I thank you on behalf of my brother, I did it, everyone is free..."

Liang Ping, Cui Peng, and Wang Xiaojuan didn't move, they looked at each other and didn't speak, but Ouyang Xue picked up the wine glass and stood up: "I did it too" Her eyes were full of tears and she drank the wine in her hand in one gulp, and burped "Hiccup": "I'm sorry Brother Wu, Brother Wu's injury was caused by me, and I didn't take good care of him... I'm also sorry for everyone, everyone trusts me so much, I... But I lost Brother Wu... After speaking, Ouyang Xue picked up the wine bottle and poured the wine alone, and Liang Ping hurriedly grabbed the wine bottle.

Liang Ping: "Xiaoxue, you can't drink like this, Wu Fan, he is a big living person who can walk and run, and he is not an ornament, who can do anything if he wants to go!

Originally, Wu Fan said goodbye, Gu Xiaotang wanted to borrow wine to kill his sorrows, but he didn't expect that Ouyang Xue was sadder than himself. People are like that, when you see someone who is more painful than you, your pain is not so painful...

Gu Xiaotang also comforted Ouyang Xue and said, "Yes, who can watch a big living person... Besides, my brother is not ungrateful, everyone is so kind to him, he must have a reason to leave..."

Cui Peng hurriedly responded: "Yes, Brother Wu is not that kind of person, he hasn't taught me kung fu yet..."

Wang Xiaojuan stepped on Cui Peng under the table: "You don't forget when you don't forget, what kung fu will you be taught... Brother Wu is a man who keeps his promises, I think there should be some hardship in his departure! We should understand that Brother Wu is..."

Liang Ping: "Xiaojuan is right, Wu Fan must have a last resort, we should understand, come, let's drink slowly, after all, Wu Fan's injury is healed, we should be happy for him..."

Under Liang Ping's proposal, everyone was not so anxious to drink, and Liang Ping was worried that Gu Xiaotang's incident did not happen.
