The Dog King of Siheyuan Tears and Rebirth

Chapter 36 Arrangements for cleaning the house

The day after Xu Damao got married, He Yuzhu couldn't wait to put marriage on the agenda, because this was the first thing he wanted to do since his rebirth, and the thing he wanted to do most.

He went to the factory to report early in the morning, talked to Liu Lan, and then took time to go to the street office.

Because he wanted to renovate the house. After all, Lou Xiao'e came from a wealthy family. In particular, He Yuzhu remembered that Lou Xiao'e once said that the most unbearable thing for her after she married into the courtyard house was going to the toilet. Not only did she have to queue, but it was also nauseatingly smelly in the summer and shiveringly cold in the winter.

Arriving at the subdistrict office, He Yuzhu walked directly into Director Wang's office. Seeing He Yuzhu coming in, Director Wang, who was reading a newspaper, looked up and asked, "He Yuzhu?"

"Haha, Aunt Wang has a good memory. She still remembers me!" He Yuzhu said with a smile.

"Haha, how can I have a bad memory? I attended the family recognition wine party between you and your grandmother not long ago! What's the matter? Do you have something to talk to me about today?" Director Wang asked.

"Director Wang, it's hard for me to explain this. Is this possible?"

"If you have something to say, just say it. If you tell me, I will know whether it is okay or not, right?"

"It's like this. My grandma is old. It's a little inconvenient for her to go to the toilet. I thought, she has two rooms, right? I want to renovate half of one of them to make a toilet, and tidy up the house. This way, it will be more comfortable for her to live in. So I came to ask you if it's okay?"

"Haha, you are quite filial. This is a small matter. You just need to report it to me. It just so happens that the sewer was dug near you last year. It's no problem as long as you have money." Director Wang replied.

"That's great, it saves a lot of trouble. Also, do you know anyone who can clean up a house? Can you introduce him to someone? I'll also clean up my house, it's time for me to get married."

"Yes! You are already 25 years old, and you are also a big problem in our street. It's great that you have this idea, otherwise I would be worried about you." Director Wang said with a smile, "We have people who often use the renovation in our street, including masons and carpenters. I will take you to find them later."

"Haha, that's good. How about Director Wang, could you please take me to look for it now? I have to go to work later!" He Yuzhu said embarrassedly.

"Well, luckily I don't have anything to do right now, so I'll take you there now!"

……

After a while, Director Wang brought He Yuzhu to a courtyard near the street office.

As soon as I entered the courtyard, a middle-aged woman who was washing clothes came up to me and greeted me enthusiastically, "Director Wang, you're here! How about coming to my house for a visit?"

"No, no," Director Wang waved his hand quickly, "I have something to ask your old Zhang. Is he home?"

"Yes, I'll call you out right away." The woman ran into the house and shouted, "Lao Zhang, come out quickly, Director Wang is here to see you."

After a while, a middle-aged man ran out, "Director Wang, why are you here? Why don't you come in and sit down?"

"No need. I must have something to ask you. Let me introduce you to this person. He is a resident of our street, He Yuzhu. He wants to clean up his house, so I brought him to see you." Director Wang looked at He Yuzhu and introduced him.

"Thank you, Director Wang," Lao Zhang hurriedly expressed his gratitude.

"You guys can discuss it among yourselves. I won't accompany you," Director Wang said to He Yuzhu, "If you have anything else, come to the street office to find me."

"Thank you, Director Wang. I'm sorry to bother you. I will come to thank you some other day." He Yuzhu said politely.

"No need, we are all serving the people! You can have a good chat." After saying that, Director Wang went back to the street office.

After Director Wang left, He Yuzhu and Lao Zhang explained their purpose and then they returned to the courtyard together.

After returning to the yard, He Yuzhu took Lao Zhang directly into the backyard to look at the old lady's house.

"Xiao He, this house is big enough. I understand what you mean. You want to merge these two rooms into one and then build a toilet next to it, right?" asked Lao Zhang.

"Is that what I mean? Is there a problem?"

"It's not a big problem. We have done this many times. It's just that the price may be a bit expensive."

"It's okay. I have saved some money over the years. You can go ahead and do it. I also have a room in the front. You can clean it up for me as well. We can talk about this later. Just fix this place for me first." He Yuzhu said.

"Okay, I'm familiar with the materials and I'll buy them for you when the time comes. Don't worry, the price is absolutely fair." Lao Zhang said with a smile.

"Why should I worry? You were introduced by Director Wang." He Yuzhu said politely.

So after the two of them discussed for a while, Lao Zhang left the courtyard with a smile.

"My dear grandson, what are you doing? I, the old lady, am confused by what you are saying. What? Are you going to clean up the house for me?" The old lady asked after seeing Lao Zhang leave.

"Haha, grandma, I haven't had time to discuss this with you. I'm planning to get married! The other party's family is well-off, and I'm afraid she will be wronged, so I want to renovate the house and build a toilet." He Yuzhu explained.

"Good, good luck getting married!" The old lady laughed, "But shouldn't you clean up your room when you get married? Why are you cleaning up my room?"

"Grandma, this is what I want to discuss with you," He Yuzhu said after pulling the old lady to sit down, "Grandma, I want to live in the backyard after I get married. I'll clean up my room and give it to you to live in, is that okay?"

"Why?" asked the old lady.

"Haha, I don't want my wife to have any contact with the two families in the middle court. You should know this. They keep thinking about me every day, which annoys me a little. It's better to stay away from them."

"Hey, it was me, the old lady, who was confused and didn't react for a moment," the old lady slapped her thigh and said, "Okay, you are right. I have seen that the new widow of the Jia family has bad intentions towards you. You are right to think so. I agree."

"Haha, thank you grandma. Then please stay at my place tomorrow and we can take turns cleaning the house." He Yuzhu said happily.

"Well, my dear grandson is getting married. I am so happy." The old lady shouted happily.

"Old lady, one more thing... you have to keep an eye on me when I'm cleaning up. I'm afraid those disgusting things in the yard will cause trouble." He Yuzhu said.

"How dare they!" the old lady said angrily, "If anyone tries to stop my grandson from getting married, I will smash their windows."

"Hehe, grandma, that's your aura that I want," He Yuzhu said with a wink, "Okay, I'll go back to work first. My apprentice will bring you lunch at noon."

"Go ahead, don't worry about grandma here..." said the old lady with satisfaction.
