Chapter 171: I'm Back!(1800 votes plus more)

When my family hadn't moved away, my mother didn't have a good relationship with her, and my father belonged to the kind of person who didn't like to think about small things. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info but my mother's eyes are not so wide, and I often quarrel with this Grandma Li and their family because of who has more places to put coal, whose bicycles occupy more space, and whose family piles up sundries in the corridor.

In fact, this kind of thing is normal in the alley, life is a collection of a lot of trivial things, especially in this kind of miscellaneous courtyard, simple building living environment, the boundaries between the families are very blurred, a lot of space is public, there is no clear division. At this time, you can see everyone's personality, who likes to take advantage of small advantages, who has a small heart, and who has poor human nature, and who can't hide it. It's still the same old saying, you can pretend for a while, but you can't pretend for a lifetime.

For these things, women are generally more calculating, this is their nature. Men are generally a little more generous, even if they have ideas in their hearts, they will not show up directly to compete for too small lengths for the sake of face. Of course, some men are smaller than women's hearts and are more calculating, and this kind of person is a chicken thief in the old saying of the capital. Generally, neighbors will guard against this kind of person, neither offending nor interacting too much, just get by and get by.

Living this thing can't be too serious, and there is no absolute right or wrong. Don't look at it as a bunch of ordinary people, if you want to live a smooth life, it is almost as difficult as the political struggle in the United Nations. Every country is a small country, and every day they are testing each other, comparing each other, pondering each other, helping each other, fighting each other, and fighting each other.

"Where can I afford a car, the unit, I just borrowed it to drive, it doesn't save money, the fuel money, the car repair money are all out of the unit. "Grandma Li's question seems simple, but who asks. If someone else asked, Hong Tao would simply answer. But when the old lady asked, it meant a lot.

If you want to say that you bought it, she will let her son-in-law borrow it from you one day, but if you borrow it once, then don't think about it anymore, and if you don't borrow it once, you will have to complain. If you want to say that you borrowed it, she has to say that you are blind and show off, and you have the ability to buy a car to drive, and it is too unprofitable to borrow one. Anyway, it's not appropriate for you to say anything, or to say that she is inhuman.

Hong Tao's personality is neither like his father nor his mother. To be precise, he is a complex, with the pride of his father in his bones, the cynicism of his uncle, and the straightforwardness of his grandfather, his mother's calculations, and his grandmother's rare confusion. Coupled with the understanding he has gained in society over the years, it has all been mixed into a nest of porridge, and the color is not too white. What kind of attitude will he have when he sees what kind of person, the bottom line is something that can fluctuate up and down at any time for him, with no upper limit and no bottom below.

Now he has a smile on his face and is extremely intimate, making outsiders look polite to Grandma Li and like a junior. The words spoken in his mouth are also decent, there are questions and answers, and they are not perfunctory at all.

But when these words heard Grandma Li's ears, it wasn't like that. She and Hong Tao's mother didn't deal with each other in the first place, but now that Hong Tao is back, she is very happy to see Hong Tao mix badly, so that she can be happy from the bottom of her heart. However, Hong Tao's answer is too hateful, the unit's car does not have to pay for gas and car repair, how can such a good thing be Hong Tao's turn? God didn't open his eyes!

"Xiao Tao, what unit are you going to, and you still give you a car?" Grandma Li was very unwilling, she wanted to ask carefully again to see if she could expose this cowhide that sounded a little big from the neighbors.

"Hey, it's not a good unit, the satellite company, it's just to watch the satellites in the sky. This job is not easy to do, and it is time to go to work in Daxing, so the company has allocated a car. Hong Tao was really not afraid of the old lady's question, and answered her question with a smile while moving the box into the corridor. It sounds like I'm not satisfied with this job, but the content is a bit enviable.

"Oh, you make a lot of money in the satellite company, right?" The old lady was consumed with Hong Tao, and she was really unwilling not to ask for something that balanced her heart.

"What's the matter, it's less than 2,000 a month, that is, the working hours are shorter, and I work two days a week, if it weren't for this, I wouldn't have served! Grandma Li, your dustpan is for me to use, I'll take a few pieces of coal, and make the stove first." ”

When Hong Tao moved away, he was still a fifth-grade child, and Mrs. Li didn't know his temperament at all, so she took the medicine according to the prescription and brought the tricks she used to deal with Hong Tao's father. But this time she can be regarded as a difficult person to deal with, don't look at her young age, she is not a child when she plays this set of things. Hong Tao not only didn't make her feel comfortable, but also released wave after wave of mental attacks, but also carried out a substantial blow, picked up a dustpan in the corridor and began to load honeycomb coal.

The building is a simple building, there is no heating and gas, and in the past, each family used to make a stove in the house to heat the house, but later changed to earth heating. But whether it's a stove or a heater, you have to burn coal. At the end of October, families go to nearby coal shops to buy the planned coal from the coal book, and they have to buy enough coal to burn for three or four months at a time, because at this time there is a state subsidy to buy coal, which is the cheapest.

According to the calculation of a single-eye honeycomb coal stove, you will need seven or eight pieces of coal a day to save it, and if you still have to cook, it will be out of the spectrum. The winter in the capital takes at least three months, and there is no running for 100 days, so each family must store at least 1,000 pieces of honeycomb coal to burn in one winter.

Thousands of pieces of honeycomb coal stacked up is not a small pile, can not be put outside let the wind and rain shower, this thing is afraid of the tide, afraid of touching, generally each household in the courtyard has a small coal shed, specially in the winter to store coal, other seasons to put some sundries. However, there is no such space in the simple building, so the coal can only be put in the corridor. Hong Tao's house and Grandma Li's house are on the first floor, door to door, and the corridor on the first floor is the public space where the two of them put honeycomb coal in winter and bicycles in other seasons.

This space is the main contradiction between the two families, Grandma Li's family always wants to occupy more, Hong Tao's father didn't say anything, but his mother was resolutely unhappy. The reason is very simple, the residents on the first floor have taken out a small courtyard in front of the house, and she prefers to put all these black coals in the small courtyard, so that the corridor is clean and easy to clean.

But Grandma Li's family didn't want to put the coal in the yard, and it was not clear why they were unhappy with Hong Tao, anyway, even if the yard was empty, they didn't put coal, and insisted on piling the coal in the corridor, and it was stacked all year round, and the ones that couldn't be burned were kept for next year.

In the past, I was young and didn't care about the coal, but now that I come back and take a look, it's really in the way. Originally, the corridor was not much wide, and then half of the space was put into coal, and a few pieces had to be taken from above every day, and a little carelessness had to get a piece of coal foam, which affected the health of the corridor. No matter how clean the house was, as soon as I walked through the corridor, there were a few black footprints when I entered the house.

Trying to convince Grandma Li's family to store coal in their own yard was too difficult, and Hong Tao basically had no hope. But Hong Tao is not as tolerant and accustomed to forbearance as his father, so when persuasion does not work, he will naturally choose another way, persecution! As for how to persecute, there are many ways, and there will be different choices according to different goals. This technique is not dogmatic, it has to be individualized and adaptable.

Now Hong Tao has begun to act, the pile of coal in the corridor is not his family at all, he has not lived here for so many years, and it is impossible to buy coal for storage. Not to mention the coal, even the earthen heater stove is a little rusty, and the new set was replaced last weekend when the aunt came, otherwise he would have to freeze.

But pretending to be stupid is Hong Tao's forte, who asked you to stack the honeycomb coal on the entire first floor, and almost blocked the door of our house. In the past, the two families were half of a family, but now you have them, and after I came back, I didn't have the slightest intention of leaving, and I didn't even say a word. If you want to play with me, right?,Cheng.,I'll take half of the coal in the corridor for our home first.,I see you squeak.。 This matter can't be said from your mouth first, that will seem to be too stingy and too calculating, let's not say it, let's act, whoever can't help but say it first will be passive.

"Xiao Tao, haven't you bought the coal in your coal book yet? You have to hurry up, you can't buy it after this month. Seeing Hong Tao take away five or six yuan of coal from his family for nothing, Grandma Li's face turned green. But the old lady has to hold on in front of the neighbors and not squeak, otherwise she has to make half of the space in the corridor for Hong Tao.

Originally, she wanted to bully Hong Tao who didn't know much about this, and if the black didn't mention it, the white didn't mention it, and it went on like this, as long as a convention was formed, this place would belong to his own home, and Hong Tao would propose redistribution, then it would be his hypocrisy. But Hong Tao's reaction was very beyond her calculations, this young man looked harmless and arrogant to humans and animals, but how could he be stupid all the time. If you only take a few pieces of coal, you can still endure it, but looking at Hong Tao's appearance, it seems that he really regards these hundreds of coals as their own home, and they came out and moved again, and they can't stop praising these coals for drying more thoroughly, so easy to burn!

"Hey, I don't cook alone, I can't burn much, that's basically enough. If your house is not enough to burn, take mine, and don't be polite to me. You watched me grow up, and you hugged me when you were a kid, right? A few pieces of coal don't matter. As long as Mrs. Li doesn't know what to say, Hong Tao plans to pretend to be stupid to the end, who wouldn't say beautiful things.
