Siheyuan: My Northeastern Farmhouse

On August 8th, it finally rained in Beijing. The cool rain blew away the dry and scorching heat in Beijing for days!

As soon as the rain stopped, it happened to be Sunday, and every household in the courtyard quickly got busy. The rainy season is here, and they are all old houses. They need to be briefly inspected to see if they need to be plastered with mud or repaired with tiles. At this time, Gu Weijun was the most tired. He had no choice but to live in too many houses. And as soon as the rain stopped, Qin Huairu came to the house and asked, "Auntie, do you want to patch up the roof at home? There were several heavy snowfalls last year. I wonder if the tiles on the roof were damaged?"

Gu's mother thought about it, but she immediately ordered Gu Weijun, "Army, hurry up, use the ladder to check the roof, and then go and pick up the roof of your Sister Qin's house!"

Gu Weijun reluctantly said, "Mom, no need. Didn't it be repaired before winter last year? How can the roof be damaged so easily?" "Can't the old lady next door do it? And I'll go help Sister Qin later. Domestic work? Silly Zhu’s mouth is very ugly!”

When Gu Ma heard this, she immediately took out the feather duster and said, "Why are you talking so much nonsense? Just hurry up when I ask you to do the work!" "Look at how pretentious you are about helping me!" "I didn't ask you to help me this time. Silly Zhu’s house!”

"Hurry, the house on the other side of Beichizi will be inspected later! If there is a water leak, it will be serious!"

Qin Huairu also immediately coaxed the silly boy, "Junzi, I have troubled you again today. There is nothing I can do about it. There is no man in the family, so I can only rely on you!" "Wait until the house is tidied up today." I'll ask my mother-in-law to get you a pair of soles, and my sister will make you a pair of shoes!" "Aunt, let's go to Beichizi Street together later, and I'll clean up the house with you. The house over there is bigger!"

"Yes! Yes!" Gu Weijun could only reluctantly put down the book in his hand, and he had better not give me the opportunity to be whipped five times in a row! Qin Huairu looked at Qin Huairu resentfully, at this time, you are going to fool Silly Zhu into doing your job!

Qin Huairu rolled her eyes flirtatiously, joking, I already have a man, so a half-grown man is no longer a man? Why not? Just leave it alone? Besides, when you beg Silly Zhu, you are trying to make small talk, and you are trying to give Silly Zhu some macho face. Even the lunch box is like this, let alone getting a house!

How can you save trouble? Just tell your aunt! Qin Huairu's tricks are very good.

After changing into work clothes, before going to the room, I specifically asked the deaf old lady next door if it was raining today. Is there any leakage in the house? Are there any spots on the wall that are damp and bulging? Is there a return of moisture in the corner of the house? Then he climbed up the ladder to the house.

Qin Huairu and Gu Ma checked carefully in the house to see if there was any water seepage or moisture return in the house.

At this time, the roofs were basically mixed with lime and various straws, then a layer of gray background was applied, and then a layer of yellow mud was applied. From bottom to top, press one layer at a time, basically pressing seven to reveal three or six to reveal four. Then put the tiles face down, with the big end facing down and the small end facing up, and press them up layer by layer. This is the fish scale tile of the old Beijing courtyard house.

Gu Weijun went up to the roof to check, and there were indeed some broken ones. Remembering how many tiles were needed, he didn’t call Ma Gu and Qin Huairu, but asked his brother Gu Weimin to hold the ladder, and then he went straight down, took some good tiles, and went up to replace them. . The same is true for Qin Huairu's family.

It's just that when Gu Weijun went to Qin Huairu's house to change the tiles, Shazhu was sitting at the door of the room with a resentful look in his eyes. Now he didn't dare to argue with his mouth, but he still muttered, "Sister Qin, from now on, I won't shout about this little thing." I'll be fine! The first man and I just fucked all the roofs in our middle courtyard!"

Qin Huairu held on to the ladder, turned around and immediately smiled, "Zhuzhu, isn't it just that Aunt Wang's house in the backyard wants to inspect the roof? I just said something to her, and she asked the army to come over and help!" I see that you and I have not started working on it yet, so I just thought that you guys work too hard at work, so you should take more breaks!"

"By the way, the army also took care of the roof of the old lady's house in the backyard!"

At this time, the uncle heard Qin Huairu and Sha Zhu's chat and went out. He first looked up at the sky, and then said to Sha Zhu: "Zhu Zhu, it's time for us to do some work on the roof. The rainy season is coming. But you have to check it out!" "Huai Ru is so attentive! On weekdays, she has to take care of the old and young at home, and nothing has fallen behind here!"

"Look at you again, you're such a rough-hearted man! You can't think of anything!"

Then he said loudly to Gu Weijun: "Junzi, you have worked hard today! Last winter, you and Zhuzi cleaned up the old lady and the roof of our middle courtyard. I asked your aunt to buy some in the afternoon. Let the dishes be cooked by the pillars, and we will have some drinks together tonight!"

After Gu Weijun came down from the roof, he smiled and replied to the uncle, "Okay, uncle! I'll have to trouble you and the aunt!" "I still have something to do. I have to go out first. Let's talk again in the evening!" "The ladder will be left here for you now." After returning home, he simply wiped his face and went out to Beichizi Street.

Silly Zhu muttered slightly distressedly on the side, "Yu Yu has already gone to work, why hasn't the matchmaker come to the door yet? I have to look for it tomorrow!"

The uncle didn't say a word when he heard this, and you don't even think about how many people around this courtyard have been offended by your foul mouth? How many times have you been pissed off when people on this street helped you introduce someone to you? It has to be good-looking, and it has to be from the city! There are so many choices for pretty girls in the city, how many people will it take to rob them? Who can earn less than you?

Seeing that Gu Weijun had used the ladder, the uncle called Si Zhu, took the ladder, and checked the roof together.

Qin Huairu called Silly Zhu: "Zhuzhu, bring your clothes over later and I'll mend them for you. Have you been spending a lot on clothes recently?"

Silly Zhu said nonchalantly: "Hey, Sister Qin, there's no need. A few holes are nothing, this is the true nature of our working class!" After saying this, he spat, "Bah", "These grandsons always One day, I was begged for help! In exchange for a few food stamps, I was sent to the workshop to work hard! I want to see who in the factory can cook better than me!"

The uncle immediately interrupted Silly Zhu and scolded: "Zhuzhu, don't talk nonsense!" "What if someone hears it and spreads the word?" Then he whispered: "Speculation is a crime!" "You are being driven too!" You haven’t seen how many people are being arrested on the street now!”

Qin Huairu also came closer and comforted Silly Zhu: "Yes, Zhu Zhu, the uncle is right!" "You have to be careful, our hospital can't tell who will give you away!" After that! He also glanced at the front yard and said, "Now you have to show your performance quickly and transfer back to the cafeteria as soon as possible."

"Master, didn't you ask Director Yang?"

The first man sighed, "I asked, Director Yang said that now is the time to hold on tight, and let Zhu Zhu hold on!"

Qin Huairu also sighed, and then said to Shazhu: "Zhuzhu, hurry up and give me your clothes first!"

Silly Zhu was still reluctant to refuse, "Sister Qin, there's really no need. It's been a few days since the workshop had a hole on the left and a hole on the right. It's too troublesome!"

Qin Huairu said coquettishly, "Why should I be so polite to your sister?" After saying that, she went into Silly Zhu's house, took a bunch of clothes and went home.

Looking at Qin Huairu's back, the uncle said meaningfully to Shazhu: "Qin Huairu is such a good woman!"

Silly Zhu looked at the outline of Qin Huairu's back in a daze, and answered unconsciously: "Isn't it true!" "Hey, it's a pity that he married Jia Dongxu, a short-lived man!"
