Chapter 189: Building a Gazebo
The second uncle had no choice but to complain to the second aunt.
…………
Yan Jiecheng helped Old Man Wu finish moving and returned to the front yard.
I thought that the west wing was in hand, and in the front yard, except for the two houses on the west side of the weeping flower gate, the rest belonged to my own family, so I planned to build a larger pavilion with wood in the middle of the courtyard.
There was a big earthquake in '76, and although I don't know exactly what day it was, I could have prepared in advance to save it and forget about it.
Back in the house, Yu Li and a few children were already sitting around the table, waiting for him to come back to eat.
Yan Jiecheng sat on the chair and ate while speaking, and was ready to discuss with Yu Li about building a gazebo.
"Yu Li, how about our family build a gazebo in the yard? In the summer, there is also a place where you can cool off. ”
"Why did you think of building a gazebo again? Aren't there two big trees at the entrance of our courtyard, and if you want to go under the trees in the shade, why do you bother to build a gazebo? No one in our hospital has this one. ”
Yu Li looked at Yan Jiecheng, and couldn't figure out how he thought that a thing was a show, just after buying a house, he had to build a gazebo again, in the past, people in the courtyard were not looking for a place with shade in the summer, and no one did it for this, and they built a pavilion specially.
Yan Jiecheng couldn't directly tell her that there would be a big earthquake here in a few years, even if Yu Li said it, she definitely didn't believe it, after all, this thing was too evil, so she could only make an excuse at random.
"Other people's families can compare to ours. You see, there are ten houses in the front yard, and now eight of them belong to our family. ”
"When I have the opportunity to buy the other two later, the whole front yard is occupied by our family."
"Even if we build a gazebo, we use it ourselves. Besides, it doesn't cost much, a few years ago, digging an air-raid shelter to liberate and relieve Kuang didn't come back a few pieces of wood, and it was almost the same to buy a few in Uncle Tong's village. ”
"In this way, even if it rains in the summer, we can also go to the yard to cool off, and we can also eat in the pavilion."
Yu Li looked at Yan Jiecheng and chattered endlessly, and it seemed that if he didn't agree, he would have to continue. After thinking about it, it wouldn't cost a lot of money anyway, so I compromised:
"Okay, okay, don't say it, I can't promise it, really, I don't know so many words from a big man, I'm annoyed to listen to it." Yu Li couldn't help but roll her eyes as she said that.
"I think my dad is right, it's better to build a gazebo. That way, I can do my homework in the pavilion in the summer. By the way, you have to pass the electric light, otherwise it will be too dark to see at night. The boy said with a happy smile when he heard that he was going to build a gazebo in the yard.
"You are everywhere, eat your food, and you will know how old you are right or wrong."
"I'm nine years old, and you still treat me like a child, and I ignore you." Saying that, the boy turned his head and turned his back to Yu Li.
"Hey, you're a little bit, and you're angry." Saying that, Yu Li also pushed Xiao Ziwan's back.
…………
After a few days, it was time for the Sunday holiday again. Yan Jiecheng called Yan Jiefang to go to Zuojiazhuang and asked the old team to buy a few trees in the village.
Let the ox cart in the village pull down the courtyard, otherwise they really won't be able to transport it back.
"Youhe, Yan Jiecheng, did you buy this wood? What is your home? Xu Damao came out of the courtyard pushing his bicycle, and just saw Yan Jiecheng and the brothers carrying wood to the courtyard, so he pointed to a stack of wood on the ox cart and asked.
"I bought it, I don't want to build a pavilion in the courtyard. How, you also have an idea? Yan Jiecheng looked at Xu Damao with a smile.
"Originally, there was this idea, but some people didn't agree, and it didn't look good." Xu Damao said sarcastically.
Originally, his three children had two houses, and Dahu was also at the age of marriage, so he wanted to build a house for Xiaohu to live in at the corner of the two houses, and vacate the original house for Dahu to keep for marriage as a new house.
But as soon as he wanted to start construction, the second uncle stood up and disagreed, and threatened him to go to the street to sue him if he dared to encroach on the place in the yard, and he would criticize him.
After all, the second uncle let people take him down from the position, and it was Xu Damao who did it, although the second uncle had rectified him first. But people will only remember the bad things of others, and they will selectively forget the bad things they have done.
Xu Damao was talking, the second uncle walked out of the courtyard, just heard Xu Damao's yin and yang weird sarcasm at him, the second uncle's temper can still be endured, and immediately replied: "Xu Damao, let me tell you, as long as I am there for a day, don't want to occupy an extra inch of land in the courtyard, hum." After the second uncle finished speaking, he snorted coldly and walked out directly past Xu Damao and Yan Jiecheng.
"Bah, bah, bah, old thing, I see that you can live for a few days, and when you die, I will cover it and you off." When the second uncle walked away, Xu Damao began to speak harshly at the back of the second uncle.
"Flutter." Yan Jiecheng laughed out loud at Xu Damao's actions, this guy still tilted his head like Erha when he said cruel words, which really made him unable to hold back.
"Yan Jiecheng, don't believe it, when the second uncle dies, I will build the house immediately, and I will see who dares to stop me."
"I didn't say I didn't believe it, you hurry up and push the cart out, don't block the door, I didn't see that we are still carrying wood."
Xu Damao listened to Yan Jiecheng's words and pushed the bicycle out, while opening his mouth and saying, "Okay, I'll go and show a movie for the commune, and when I come back, my brother will invite you to dinner, and we will have a good drink." ”
"Okay, I still have a good bottle of wine." Although Yan Jiecheng can't get used to Xu Damao, he doesn't stretch out his hand to hit the smiling person, no matter how Xu Damao behaves, he is quite particular about what he says and does.
"Look at what you said, I can still send you this bottle of wine, and I don't need to bring anyone with me. Alright, that's it, I've got to hurry up or I'll be too late. After speaking, Xu Damao got on his bicycle and held the projector, and disappeared at the mouth of the alley.
"The Sword Comes"
………
After unloading the wood, Yan Jiecheng took two packs of cigarettes for the driver. Originally, he wanted him to stay on the table and leave after eating, but he didn't want to live or die, not to say that the team was waiting for the cow, but in fact, he didn't want to stay, for fear of causing trouble to Yan Jiecheng.
After sending off the car, Yan Jiecheng came to the backyard to find Wang Dazhi, after all, building a pavilion is also a carpenter's job, and he himself can't do it, if you want to make it strong and reliable, you still have to find a professional. If he had done it himself, maybe the pavilion would have fallen apart before the earthquake, and even if it did, it would be difficult for him to live in it.
Wang Dazhi heard Yan Jiecheng say that he wanted to build a pavilion in the front yard, so he didn't think much about it, and the work continued, anyway, it was all about making money, and building a pavilion was simpler than making furniture for him.
