"Yes."

Fu Jingyou curled his lips and smiled.

The mood is delicate, as if I had just gotten married.

That's when he had his first home.

Now in Beijing, he has a second home.

People are in good spirits on happy occasions, Fu Jingyou is happy in his heart, and his expression softens.

The always tough and cold face showed a bit of gentleness and warmth at this moment.

They bought hoes and shovels, and the two of them carried their things back to the courtyard.

The dust in the house was very heavy, Fu Jingyou went into the house to clean up the lumps and broken tiles, and did not let Lu Miao in.

Lu Miao didn't make trouble for him, put on cotton gloves by himself, and took down all the weeds that could be reached on the courtyard wall.

After that, he picked up the hoe and started from the corners and slowly hoeed the grass.

The new hoe is easy to use and easy to use.

Lu Miao slowly cleaned up, it was quite like a thing.

Fu Jingyou went in and out of the tiles several times and praised her several times.

Lu Miao held the handle of the hoe and looked at him speechlessly:

"Two more compliments? I'll see what other words you can think of? ”

Fu Jingyou grinned "hehe" and entered the house to continue cleaning the tiles.

The small courtyard was empty for a long time, and suddenly people were busy with work, and many people in the alley came to take a look.

Someone came in to take a look, saw Lu Miao's face, and asked if he was a new move.

Lu Miao is not good at chatting with her neighbors, and when someone comes to ask, she responds truthfully, and then laughs.

During this period, a few old ladies holding children came, and after looking around, they were too gray and left.

But there was a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl named Meizi who stayed.

Umeko was very helpful.

After watching at the door for a while, Xu saw something from Lu Miao's unfamiliar posture, and she directly picked up the shovel against the wall when she entered the courtyard and helped to get alive.

Suddenly a person broke in, or the kind of person who helped with the work without saying a word, Lu Miao was a little confused.

"Hey, you're ......"

Meizi stopped her movements and glanced at Lu Miao awkwardly.

There was a brief stalemate.

People who are too enthusiastic and self-acquainted, Lu Miao is really not very good at receiving.

It's okay if the other party has a purpose, but this is the first time they meet, she really can't figure out what the other party's motives are.

Seeing that Lu Miao only looked at herself and didn't say anything, Meizi buried her head and continued to work.

"My surname is Luo, and I live in Xiaoyong Lane in the northwest corner...... Everyone in the alley called me Meizi. ”

"This yard hasn't been inhabited for a long time, you can't get it alone, I'll help you......"

As if afraid of rejection, she later added:

"You're a new tenant, aren't you? From now on, everyone will be neighbors. ”

"Yes, my surname is Lu, my husband's surname is Fu, and we used to live in Dongcheng."

At this time, it was not allowed to buy and sell real estate on the surface, and Lu Miao did not explain.

Not embarrassed or embarrassed, following Meizi's words, Lu Miao said "thank you" by the way.

"It's nothing ......"

Meizi shook her head, looked at Lu Miao and said:

"You don't look like you've been married at all, I originally wanted to call you sister, but now I'm going to call you sister-in-law."

The new residents in the alley look very different.

Obviously, the clean cotton clothes on his body are the same as those worn by many people on the street outside.

Long hair is also braided.

But his chin is pointed, his long eyebrows are crooked, his face is white and ruddy, and the whole person is as clean as if he is covered with a layer of moonlight.

How to look how decent.

No matter how you look at it, it looks good.

Compared to the ones they grew up in a large compound, it's really not the same at all.

"It's the same name."

Lu Miao smiled politely and looked at the plum.

Umeko is thin and slender, with thick and long braids.

Looks a lot like the little Fuzi in the old movie Camel Xiangzi.

Her eyes are simple and clear, and she doesn't talk much.

In addition to the greetings at the beginning, he has been focusing on his work since then, and his hands and feet are diligent, which is very quick.

Although it was a bit embarrassing to meet for the first time, Lu Miao's impression of her was quite good.

Umeko didn't stay here for long.

Before Fu Jingyou came out to pour the tiles again, in the alley in the northwest corner, there were several calls with a Beijing accent.

Meizi tensed for a moment, leaned the shovel back against the wall, and hurriedly said:

"Sister-in-law, I'll go back first today! You're a big place, and you can't finish cleaning it up for a while, and I'll help you when you're free tomorrow. ”

"Actually, no...... But thank you for today. ”

Meizi shook her head and ran as fast as she could.

The second monk Lu Miao was confused, and Fu Jingyou came out and said:

"What are you thinking? Who was that just now? ”

Lu Miao shook her head, "It is said that she lives in a nearby alley, and she is a very enthusiastic little girl......"

She didn't know anything else.

Fu Jingyou shook his head.

There is a large courtyard and a small courtyard nearby, and dozens of alleys.

There are no more than one hand in the number of separate courtyards like the ones they have coiled.

There are many residents in the courtyard of the alley, and when they move over in the future, they should get along very lively.

At about two o'clock, Lu Yuanzheng drove back again.

Said that the bricks and tiles have been taken care of, and someone will be sent to the end of the alley tomorrow morning.

Lu Yuanzheng handed over the approval slip to Fu Jingyou, and asked Fu Jingyou to hand over the slip to someone tomorrow.

Fu Jingyou estimated the number of bricks and tiles needed in advance, and said it in the car at that time.

On the strip, it was exactly the maximum value he had estimated, totaling ten yuan.

went out with money, Fu Jingyou put the slip away, and handed the money to his father-in-law.

Lu Yuanzheng turned his face to look at him, and he was also calm:

"Dad, take it, Miao Miao and I still have some money in our hands, and I will talk to you when I really need help."

The matter of bricks and tiles is to consume the interpersonal friendship of the father-in-law.

How can I make my father-in-law pay for it again?

One yard to one yard, now I don't know clearly, I really need help in the future, but it's not good to speak again.

Lu Yuanzheng thought about it for a while, and understood the truth, so he took the money.

"Daddy~"

Lu Miao blinked and stuck to the situation.

A few days ago, I was reluctant to call "Dad" with a small temper, but now it is called intimate.

"You see that this courtyard is so messy, Brother You will clean it up alone, when will it be cleaned up? Hurry up and help! ”

Lu Yuanzheng was speechless.

Thinking about how people's little padded jackets are intimate and cold, and his two sleeves boast of the cold wind?

Lu Miao laughed twice, pretending not to see his speechless eyes, and stuffed the hoe into him.

Little without conscience.

Lu Yuanzheng scolded several times in his heart.

In the end, she couldn't ask a girl to help her do these jobs.

Lu Yuanzheng took off his upright tunic and rolled up his sleeves to beckon his son-in-law to act together.

The broken tiles in the house have been cleaned up, and the ash and moss on the wall are rubbed vigorously by Fu Jingyou with a broom.

The ash wasn't as heavy as it used to be, but it was still there.

Lu Miao went in and pointed to a few walls to be demolished, and was quickly driven out.

The old man and son-in-law in the house looked at the position of the beams.

It is determined that it is not a load-bearing wall, and the demolition will not affect the structure of the house, so it is officially dismantled.

After most of the day's work, the house was roughly cleaned up in a rough shape.

As for the courtyard, Lu Miao was busy all afternoon, and he didn't do anything.

She can wipe the ashes and wash the dishes, but she doesn't have much patience for other rough work. (End of chapter)
