On the thirtieth day of the eleventh month of the lunar calendar, Chu Xi appeared at the agreed place on time when the staff of the housing management office officially went to work.

At the end of the 80s, Saturday was still a working day, and it was not until May Day in 1995 that the five-day work week was introduced, which means that there were two days off.

The National Day holiday will be four years later before it will change from one day to three days......

Putting together the smoky gray knitted scarf, Chu Xi stopped remembering and looked at the intersection.

- In her spare sight, she saw someone coming this way.

"Waited, huh?" Zhou Lao saw that the tip of her nose was red, and pointed to his grandson with some embarrassment, "It's cold, this kid has to send me ......."

This made him more than ten minutes later than the agreed time.

The first time he made an appointment with someone but was late, Zhou Lao felt uncomfortable, and his apologies were almost overflowing.

"It's fine." Chu Xi was not impatient, and nodded his chin to the hall of the housing management office, "Then let's go in?" ”

"Good, good."

Both of them are cheerful people, and they have negotiated the conditions before, but now that the money is in place and the procedures are complete, the transfer can be completed immediately.

There are not many people in the housing management office today, so I know that someone bought a house with millions of cash in one go, and when I went through the formalities for the two of them, I couldn't help it, and secretly went to see Chu Xi while smacking my tongue.

Chu Xi was dressed in cold colors, with a porcelain white face, although he was young, he looked extremely unapproachable. Only she lowered her head to sign, and the tails of her beautiful Ruifeng eyes rose slightly, picking out a soft-hearted arc, with a little more vividness.

- This little girl is so pretty!

Sensing the hot and excited gaze behind the left, Chu Xi's pen paused slightly, and he raised his eyes to look over.

The young female staff member clenched her fists and hung down at her sides, her eyes looking at her with restraint, but she didn't look away the slightest.

- Ahh!!h

"Something?" Chu Xi was puzzled, glanced at his clothes without a trace, and made sure that there was nothing out of place before he spoke.

"Ah, it's okay! It's okay! The female staff couldn't help but be excited, but in the end she couldn't hold back, her eyes were so bright, "Why do you look so good!" ”

Chu Xi was stunned, then smiled, lowered his head, and while signing the last word, he said slowly as if it was true or false, "Probably I was too miserable in my last life, God can't look past it, and in this life, I have superimposed my appearance advantages......"

As soon as these words came out, there was a burst of good-natured laughter in the work hall.

Another person said, "If I can look like you in the next life, I am willing to be miserable in this life!" ”

Chu Xi smiled.

One ear is permanently deaf, almost unable to stand upright, fractured, seeing that he is out of the sea of suffering, and finally besieged by greedy parents and villagers, there is no good place in the whole body, the pain is numb, from experiencing hope gradually to despair in life, are you still willing?

Putting down the pen, Chu Xi looked at Zhou Lao, Zhou Lao smiled, "I packed my luggage yesterday, and I can hand it over today." I'll give you the keys when I get my luggage, and now go back together? ”

Chu Xi didn't have anything to do, so he nodded.

It was almost twelve o'clock in the afternoon, and it would take thirty or forty minutes to get to the courtyard. The old man's train ticket has already been bought, and he can take it within two days, so seeing that there is still a lot of time left today, he is ready to go.

After all, he has not done anything that makes people wait for a long time, the old man thought about it, beckoned his grandson to put down his luggage, took out a palm-sized brocade box from the suitcase, and handed it to Chu Xi.

"This is the bracelet I knitted in August, and a jade bead fell on it, send it to you, keep safe." This bracelet is not very easy to weave, and he is too idle, so he only lives with the nanny on weekdays, so he moved his mind and tossed around according to the collection of books for several months before he made it up.

When he is old, let him make it up, and he doesn't want to spend so much energy making it up.

Let's take this as compensation.

"Thank you." Chu Xi generously accepted it and sent him to the gate of the hospital, "I wish you a smooth journey." ”

"Alright, I'll go." The old man glanced at the courtyard where he had lived for decades, smiled with emotion, and said, "The security here is better, you don't have to be afraid of anything." If you're really worried, let's get a dog. Neighbors on both sides are not allergic to dogs and will not object to you raising them. ”

This girl is too cold and quiet, she has a dog, and with the marriage bracelet he sent, she can't say that the marriage will turn around.

Seeing Chu Xi nodding, he smiled and waved his hand, and followed his grandson, who was carrying two large suitcases, and got into the car.

Chu Xi turned around and entered the courtyard.

The old man had taken only his luggage with him when he left, and the interior and exterior furnishings had not changed in the slightest from what she had first seen.

All stayed.

Moved a chair and sat at the door of the main room, Chu Xi looked at the pomegranate tree by the wall and pondered.

- Although the pomegranate flowers are beautiful, the tree is prone to a kind of insect that looks like the color of the branches, so if you cut it down......

"Bang bang".

The knock on the door interrupted Chu Xi's unemotional thoughts, she got up and opened the door, swept over the things that the person was carrying, nodded, and let people in.

"Where there are locks, all changed."

This is the lock changer who was found by the way when the old man came back, and the style of the lock was also chosen.

And she, back to the door of the main room, sat down on the chair from before, stared at the pomegranate tree and continued to think about the unfinished business.

It's just that, thinking about it, his eyes began to drift, until he drifted to the two tall persimmon trees next door.

- Persimmon is easy to fall fruit, so how did the above three do it in this weather, and in the case of the north wind?

It was an old man who came to change the lock here, and Leng Buding saw Chu Xi staring at the top of the persimmon tree in the yard next door, thinking that she was greedy, and said with a smile, "Now the fresh persimmons are gone, but there are persimmons, you are not far away, and there is a one selling them in a mile or two." ”

Seeing Chu Xi turn around, he paused what he was doing, "That persimmon is really good, the ancestral craftsmanship." The flesh is full, the color is moist and frosty white, crystal clear, soft and glutinous and sweet......"

Realizing that he had said too much, he hurriedly stopped and picked up the key points, "It's just that this business is too good, and whether you can buy it or not depends on luck." ”

People don't accept reservations, they are rationed every day, and they close when they sell out.

Chu Xi sat up a little straighter: "What's the name of the store?" How to go? ”

"You wait, when I finish changing the locks, I'll tell you well, you write it on paper, save yourself from forgetting."

"Okay."

It's not difficult to change the locks, but after getting it done, the person really told Chu Xi in detail, and also added the daily business hours of the store, so he took the money and left happily.

The sun set, and after the owner moved away, the popularity of this courtyard disappeared suddenly, Chu Xi looked at it for a while, closed the door, and prepared to continue to live in the hotel.
