Luli slept late and woke up very late, got up and went out of the manhole, washed up, picked up the newspaper on the cabinet, and muttered to the street, "I have to rub it for ten minutes before using this to go to the toilet, and I am uncomfortable to death." ”

Zhu Guohua was accompanying Yu Fang to work, and the two of them were talking, breaking beans, and laughing and talking, "Then don't use it, anyway, if it stinks, it won't kill anyone." By the way, you have underwear for sale, go to the toilet and change a pair. ”

Yu Fang laughed! Lu Li glared at her, and said in a sour tone: "Auntie, you are so happy when he says it, I told you a joke at the beginning, but I never saw you so beautiful." Hey, surnamed Zhu, school is about to start, let's find a house and move. I've now found out that it was a mistake to let you live in. ”

"I'm mad at you, I won't leave!"

Luli joked with the two people, took the newspaper to the toilet, he had just left, a person came to the gate, carrying a travel bag, probing his brain at the door, the two people in the courtyard did not pay attention, while choosing vegetables, while making a different laughter.

The woman inside and outside hesitated for a long time, saw Yu Fang get up and enter the house, thought it was a vacancy, walked into the small courtyard, walked behind the man, and gently hugged his waist in the back, Zhu Guohua was startled, and hey, "What's the matter?" "Zhangkou is the standard northern (Beijing) accent.

The girl also realized that she had recognized the wrong person, and hurriedly got up and stood up, and her pretty face was as red as blood! "You...... I ,......"

"Oh, Xiaowei is here?" Yu Fang walked out of the door with a cigarette in her mouth, and handed the cigarette to Zhu Guohua, "You don't know each other yet, do you?" This is Zhu Guohua, Jiahua's younger brother, from Beijing (Beijing) to attend this university, where are you from? ”

"Nanda."

"This is Liang Wei, little object. That's right. Didn't you go to Beijing (Beijing)? It's only been a few days, and you're back? ”

Liang Wei is very embarrassed! Why didn't you notice when you came in? It shouldn't be! If you look back and let him know, what will you think of yourself? She thought wildly in her heart, lowered her pink neck, and didn't say a word.

Zhu Guohua didn't think it was anything, it was just an accident. "I should call you sister-in-law," he stretched out his hand with a smile, "you can call me my country's birch, or call me Erhua—that's what my family calls me." ”

Liang Wei nodded, and opened a shy smile to him, handsome facial features and fair skin, which made Zhu Guohua's big heart shake for a moment, and he unconsciously envied Lu Lilai: This guy. Actually found such a beautiful girl?

"Xiaowei, you've only been gone for a few days, why did you come back so quickly, by the way, is Beijing (Beijing) fun? Where have they gone? ”

Liang Wei smiled silently, she originally went to Beijing (Beijing) with her classmates to play, this matter was agreed by the daughters of several of their college classmates before the summer vacation, and later it was a relationship problem. She held back the anger in her belly, and wanted to take this opportunity to relax. Unexpectedly, when she left Tian (Tianjin), Liang Wei's heart was filled with huge negative emotions: how many years has she been in love with Lu Li? How could you lose such a temper with him because of such a thing? I really shouldn't have it! I just hope that the words and deeds of a few days ago will make him not angry, right?

With such a mood, even when I arrived in the north (Beijing), I didn't want to be able to have a comfortable time, and I was not happy to sit in the corner alone. On the contrary, because she brought other classmates with her, she also became unhappy, and with that classmate, she even began to complain behind her back. Fortunately, Liang Wei took the initiative to offer: "I'll go back first, you can play by yourself, and take a few more photos when you get back." Why don't you let me see what it's like in Beijing? So, she stayed in the hotel for only one day and hurried on the return train.

Of course, there is no need to say these words to Yu Fang, the latter saw that her expression was wrong, and she was speechless, and she didn't want to ask too much, so Gu said to him: "Hey, what about Xiaoxiao? Why haven't you come back for so long? ”

Luli stepped out of the toilet, washed his hands in front of the public water pipe in the alley, walked around the alley, walked towards his home, and stopped a short distance: the gate of the second courtyard was open, and there was a figure shaking inside. This made him feel strange, when the storm hit, He Zhixiu was completely defeated, and his two grandsons, He Jun and He Lian, also became cubs, and soon after, the He family was sent back to their hometown, and the No. 2 courtyard where they lived also became a warehouse used by the rebels on the nearby streets to place confiscated materials. But with the passage of time, it has also become the home of the city fox society rats, the yard is overgrown waist-deep weeds, and the huge rats are running all over the ground, even if they see people coming, they are not afraid at all. There are even more daring ones, who drill in and out of the cracks in the threshold, frightening the passers-by, especially the big girls and little daughters-in-law, screaming again and again.

Later, the street came forward and found someone to tidy it up once, but soon after it reappeared the old look, and finally had to give it up, tear down the wooden threshold, and build a simple barrier with green bricks instead, which is considered to be a complete abandonment of this place, what happened today?

He leaned forward to look inside, and a man, dressed in gray and blue cloth, holding a smoking cigarette roll in his hand, with a burnt yellow between his fingers, was facing away from the door, talking to the people inside, "Okay, the baby is still waiting." "Listen to him, it's a Henan accent.

Lu Li coughed dryly, and the man immediately turned around, looking at him with gray eyes, "What are you doing?" ”

"I'm sorry," Lu Li could understand the Henan dialect, and said to the man: "That, I'm sorry, I used to live in this alley, isn't it......" A woman walked out of the east wing and stood beside the man, although it had been more than ten years, Lu Li could still tell at a glance that it was He Lian!

The person is still the same person, but the description and state are no longer the memories of her. She wore the same gray and blue cloth outfit, with a blue cloth wrapped around her head, and a few messy gray hairs crawled out of the gaps, giving people the feeling of premature aging. Her originally fair and delicate skin had also dried up, and the corners of her eyes drooped down slightly, so that Lu Li didn't know what it was like: how beautiful she was back then? I haven't seen her for more than ten years, how did she become like this?

"You are?"

"You're Sister He, right? I am from Wangjia Hutong Courtyard, and my name is Lu Li. ...... year I used to see you. Well, are your brother and grandfather and grandmother all right? ”

"They...... It's all gone. The Hongqi Canal is flooded, and it is gone. ”

"Ah, I'm sorry. I do not know. ”

He Lian smiled, fortunately, her teeth were still white and neat, "It's okay." ”

"That, I'll call you Sister He, they're all old neighbors. If you need my help, just tell me that I have a lot of friends, and it may not be possible to do some meticulous work, but it is still no problem to exert your strength. Lu pointed behind them with his hand, "Let's talk about it here, if you plan to tidy up the yard again, just say hello to me." ”

"No, thank you." He Lian said, "It's ...... here. It was returned to our family after the policy was implemented, but now that ......, I think we can leave it for the time being, or wait for the future, and then think of other ways. ”

Luli nodded, didn't say much to the other party, and turned his head to leave. Suddenly he stopped again, "That." Sister He, do you have any thoughts about selling this house? If so, tell me ,......"

He Lian didn't have time to speak, and the man said, "Sell? Buying a lot? ”

"I'll buy it."

"You buy? Are you buying a house? ”

He Lian pulled the man's sleeve vigorously beside him. The man ignored it, and Lu Li understood at a glance that although He Lian was beautiful and from the city, he was in her husband's house. You can't be the master of anything! This situation made him both sad for the woman and a little happy, "Yes, what, are you going to sell it?" How much money do you want? ”

"How much do I want? 300 yuan, can you afford it? The man hesitated for a moment and offered the highest price he had in mind.

Luli tilted his head sideways and pondered for a while, smacking his tongue in embarrassment, "No, it's too much." If it's cheaper, I'll buy it. ”

"That's, 200."

"Fixed price, 150, how about it?"

"It's too little, you can give more."

Lu Li was amused in his heart, but his face did not show it at all, "In this way, you and I each take a step back, 180 yuan, and we will go through the formalities immediately, how about it?" ”

"It's done! Take the money. ”

Lu Li laughed, "Big brother, who went out with so much money?" Besides, even if I brought it, you have to bring the house book or something, so that we can do business, you take my money and don't give me the house book, what should I do? ”

The man's gray eyes were as big as eggs, "You baby, don't you believe in people?" ”

"I believe you, how about we pay the money with one hand and deliver the goods with the other?"

"Done." The man turned around and said a few words to He Lian, the woman took out a cloth bag from her arms tremblingly, opened it, it was a ticket and a large stack of photos, the man snatched it, and the photos were scattered all over the ground, "Oh, I brought it, where is the money?" ”

"Come with me." Lu Li is proud in his heart, the second courtyard is a three-courtyard structure with two sets of side rooms and matching rooms in the main house, which is more spacious and magnificent than his aunt's house, and he can't think of buying it for 180 yuan? This matter has to be hurried, if you let the other party know that you have been fooled, this matter will be yellow! He happily walked into the No. 2 courtyard with the man, and shouted when he entered the door, "Auntie, get me some money." Hurry up! ”

Yu Fang hurriedly came out of the room and asked, "What's the matter, what are you doing?" ”

"Leave it alone, get me 200 yuan. Oh, besides, find out my household registration book for me, aunt, I'm useful. ”

"Why are you looking for me for money every day, anyway, it's my money, sooner or later, I'll toss it for you and finish it." Yu Fang nagged for a hundred years, went into the house to open the cabinet, and took out a paper roll and household registration book, "Here you go, count it clearly." ”

A paper roll is 200, Lu Li handed the money to the other party, the man really didn't expect that he could make so much money in just one morning? Excited to the point that a pair of gray eyes became brighter, spit between his fingers, and counted one by one, "That's right, that's right, hehe, hehe!" Hey, more, more? ”

"I know more than 20, but Sister He was my neighbor back then, and you came from afar, so the extra bit can be regarded as buying some food for you on the road, and after you go home, buy something for your children."

"Right? Now let's go through the formalities, shall we? The housing management station is also open at this time. Let's go? Luli patted the man's shoulder, and suddenly turned around, "Hey, Xiaowei, are you back?" You hurry up to Xu Yunjian's house now, let him come with his father, and ...... Forget it, I'll inform Cao Xun to go by the way. ”

**************************************************************

At ten o'clock, Lu Li chuckled all the way back to the small courtyard, everyone didn't know what was going on until now, how to find Xu's father in a good manner, "Xiaoxiao, what are you looking for me?" ”

"Uncle Xu, I have something to look for you, you wait a while." Lu Li couldn't hide the smile on his face, and said to Fang: "Aunt, our house is very good, we have lived for so many years, and we are quite emotional, but it is a little small." What about me, I went to the toilet this morning and bought a house on the way back, do you know where it is? It's the second courtyard, the original He family! ”

Yu Fang was stunned for a moment, and suddenly raised his hand and gave him a mouthful, "There's no place for you to live at home?" Why buy a house? Just this amount of money is not enough for you to toss! Why are you in charge of everything now? Don't you talk about discussing with your family? ”

Lu Li took a step back for her, covered her cheeks with her hands, and there was grievance in her voice, "Auntie, don't I also want you and Xiaoting to live more comfortably?" You don't know, that house is very big, and it's a pleasure to live in. ”

"I'm not going! You bought it to live on your own! m a b, are you capable now? I can make money on my own, and I won't tell me about such a big thing as buying a house, ah? ”

Everyone was embarrassed, and some wanted to come over to persuade a few words, but they knew Lu Li's feelings for Fang very well.

Lu Li was aggrieved, but he didn't dare to make the old lady angry, his eyes rolled, and he gave Liang Wei a look, "Auntie, don't be angry with him, he is disobedient, you can beat him if you want, scold if you want to, you hold him up with one hand, what are you afraid of?" Just don't be really angry, turn around and hurt your body, he's also distressed, isn't he? ”

"He's a fart! If he knew that he felt sorry for me, he wouldn't think about spending money every day! ”

"Yes, I know, what you said is right, Auntie, I will accompany you into the house, you take a break, smoke a cigarette, and come out to talk about him."

When the two of them entered the house, Lu Li smiled bitterly and shook his head, no one else knew how to persuade him, only Xu Yunjian, hehe smiled, made a vicious face, and scolded in a low voice: "Yes!" Let you beat me up, and I'll be reported now, right? I'll tell Auntie later, let her take a rolling pin and discount your brat's dogleg! ”

Father Xu raised his hand and gave his son a neck slip, "You don't talk nonsense!" Xiaoxiao, don't pay attention to him, by the way, what are you looking for an uncle? ”

"Help me look at the house, go back and find someone to clean it up, since that year, this house has been vacant, and then the earthquake, I guess it's enough to choke - leave this matter to you, I won't care." When the time comes, you can just report to me. ”

"Xiaoxiao, do we still need this?"

"No, if it's just you, then I won't say anything, but that's not the case now, and you might have to get someone to help, right?"

Uncle Xu pondered for a while, nodded and said, "It's okay, this matter, I'll find someone when I come back, how much will it cost, I'll let this kid tell you." You can rest assured, I promise to make you look beautiful. ”

"I didn't say it, you are definitely an expert in this area, I am a pure layman, so I will entrust it all to you." Lu Li smiled and nodded, "Then, Uncle Xu, let's go and have a look?" ”

"Let's go." (To be continued......)
