Zhang Chengfei owns two courtyard houses in Qianmen Street. There are fifteen rooms in one set and fourteen rooms in one set.

The fifteenth room was the reward he had received from previous system tasks, and the other one was bought from Qiu Guangpu, the master of film, for more than 4 yuan.

The two courtyards with three entrances and three exits appear to belong to two different alleys from the outside, but in fact they are butts facing each other.

After Zhang Chengfei bought the film master's house, he did not open up the two courtyards and turn it into a six-entry courtyard, but continued to maintain it as it was.

In fact, no one except the cadres at the sub-district office who were responsible for processing the property deeds knew that both yards belonged to him. And that cadre and Zhang Chengfei now have a very good relationship, and they get along like two brothers wearing a pair of pants.

Zhang Chengfei brought Zheng Juan here today to buy the house from Mr. Pian'er. He mainly used the other house as a temporary warehouse when delivering goods to Luo Yuzhu and Chen Jianghe.

And even if Zheng Juan came to live there, he didn't tell her that the courtyard across from her also belonged to him.

The reason for doing this is not to be wary of Zheng Juan. The main reason is that there is no need to tell people. When meeting people, they talk about how many houses they have, how much money they have, and how many things they have. It is like a poor man suddenly getting rich. There is no need.

Zheng Juan entered the door and followed Zhang Chengfei step by step, visiting this mansion that she had never seen before.

This house is really big. The light door is divided into two main doors, a hanging flower door, a moon door leading to the middle courtyard, and a door leading to the backyard.

Moreover, the three different courtyards each have their own walkways, so even if it is windy or rainy, you will not get wet when you move around in the courtyard.

Seeing the dozen or so houses, the spacious courtyard with three entrances, especially the brick carvings and carved pillars just after entering the door, Zheng Juan suddenly understood the gap between herself and Zhang Chengfei.

When he was in Anshan before, although the clothes Zhang Chengfei wore and the watch he wore looked like they were not for ordinary people, he also knew that the other person was a cadre of a steel rolling mill.

But because she didn't come into contact with anything higher in Zhang Chengfei, and because Zhang Chengfei was usually approachable, she didn't intuitively feel much of a difference.

But now, looking at the house that looked like a pavilion in the play, she suddenly understood that class was an unbridgeable gap.

Zhang Chengfei didn't know how shocked Zheng Juan was.

As he walked, he told Zheng Juan about the courtyard house. In ancient times, Sijiucheng belonged to the emperor, who paid special attention to rules.

Housing is also very particular. There are opinions on what kind of yard people live in and what kind of yard they live in.

Whether it is the tiles on the roof, the pillars in the yard, the tiles on the ground, or the little beast on the roof ridge, they must all follow the rules. If something goes wrong, if someone reports it to you, you might get into big trouble.

He talked eloquently, one by one. Zheng Juan nodded her head like garlic after hearing this, feeling that Brother Zhang was really knowledgeable and talented.

When Zhang Chengfei took a breath, she asked, "Brother Zhang, I can understand everything else you said, but why are scorpions, snakes, and centipedes carved on the brick carvings? How scary it is!!"

Zhang Chengfei lit a cigarette, blew out a smoke ring and said with a smile, "On top are scorpions, spiders, toads, lizards, and snakes. Together they are called the Five Poisons. Hitting this on the screen wall at the entrance can ward off evil spirits and eliminate demons. Keep your home safe.”

Zhang Chengfei thought for a while and added: "Actually, in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and some areas in the south, children's bellybands and clothes are also embroidered with the five poisons. The reason is the same."

--There are many snakes, insects, rats, and ants in those places, so this is popular.

Zheng Juan nodded with interest after listening, "So that's the case. This is the first time I've heard of it. It's quite interesting."

After taking Zheng Juan for a walk around the courtyard, Zhang Chengfei told Zheng Juan to just choose a room she liked.

"You can live in whichever room you want. You're welcome. This house is yours to live in now. You can choose whatever you want."

"Then...brother Zhang, don't you live here?" Zheng Juan clasped her fingers and looked at Zhang Chengfei uneasily.

This is the first time she has left Anshan in her grown-up life, the first time she has been to a strange place, and the first time she has come to a city as big as Sijiucheng.

She was a little scared to live alone in such a big house, even during the day. If she lived alone in a quiet and dark courtyard at night, she would probably be frightened...

Zhang Chengfei didn't know what Zheng Juan was thinking, so he casually replied, "Yeah, I don't live here.

I live at No. 95 Nanluogu Lane with my wife, my grandmother, and my two children. I'll take you to my house for dinner when I get the chance. "

When Zheng Juan heard this, a flash of loneliness suddenly flashed in her eyes.

But knowing her status, she wisely didn't say anything. Instead, she suppressed a smile and said, "It's okay. Actually, I'm not that scared. I'll just have to wait a few days to get used to it."

"Besides, I looked at the street outside this courtyard. There are many businesses on the street...I think this is a lively place, and it won't be deserted even at night."

She kept talking like this, as if she was trying to reassure Zhang Chengfei, telling him not to worry about her, and she seemed to be convincing herself.

Zhang Chengfei looked at Zheng Juan talking to herself, but said nothing.

After she stopped, he touched her furry head and said, "Okay, you go choose a suitable room first, put your things away, I will take you to eat some delicious food, and give it to you by the way. Get some supplies."

It was a long journey from Anshan to Sijiucheng. Zheng Juan only brought a few changes of clothes and nothing else.

And she lives in Sijiu City permanently and has to cook her own meals. There are quite a lot of things to buy.

Zheng Juan obediently picked up a room in the wing of the central courtyard while carrying her luggage. She stood at the door of the room, tilted her head, and smiled at Zhang Chengfei in the courtyard, "Brother Zhang, I will live in this room."

Zhang Chengfei raised his eyebrows and looked at her curiously, "Why did you choose this one? The room is not big, and the orientation is not good."

The north room is obviously spacious and bright, so why did this girl choose a room that wasn't very good?

Zheng Juan said, "It's enough for me to live in this room alone. I'll keep the big room for you and it will be convenient when you bring your sister-in-law to live there later."

Of course, the reasons she said were not the reasons in her mind. From Zheng Juan's point of view, she was just a temporary guest living here with Zhang Chengfei. As a guest, how could she live in the master room, no matter how open-minded and generous the owner was?

Of course, she couldn't tell Zhang Chengfei these words, and could only think sadly in her heart.

After Zheng Juan temporarily put her luggage in the room, she went out and followed Zhang Chengfei to the street.

There are a lot of delicious food on Qianmen Street, but Zhang Chengfei decided to eat roast duck after choosing for a while.
