Comfortable life in Siheyuan

Liu Qingshan walked and looked along the way, and soon arrived at the street office.

Liu Qingshan hadn't been to the subdistrict office for a long time since Director Yang left. This time he felt that there were some changes. The subdistrict office building had been painted and looked much brighter.

Liu Qingshan walked to the deputy director's office with ease and knocked on the door a few times. "Knock! Knock!"

"Come in!" The voice of his brother-in-law Feng Lei came from the room. Liu Qingshan pushed the door open and sat directly on the sofa.

Feng Lei looked up, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

"Brother-in-law, why are you here?" Feng Lei said as he stood up and walked over.

"I came to talk to you. I just came from your house." Liu Qingshan said with a smile.

Seeing Feng Lei's calm style, Liu Qingshan was quite happy. Over the years, he has never asked for help from him but has risen to the position of deputy director. It is conceivable that this is inseparable from his own efforts.

"You went home and didn't go to work today!" Feng Lei talked to Liu Qingshan with a smile, picked up a cup and poured a cup of tea for Liu Qingshan.

"Come on, be careful!"

"I talked to your sister yesterday about your family. Your sister said that your family has become quite large and there is not enough space at home. I was thinking of asking my parents if we should move out."

"No need to move. I will be allocated houses soon, so they don't need to move. Our street office has a batch of quotas this time, and my previous housing application has been approved." Feng Lei said happily.

"That's good. Your sister and I were worried about this. I thought you should have some money on hand, so your sister and I will give you some more so that you can live in a more spacious place."

"I'm sorry to bother you and my sister. Brother-in-law, if you have money, you can buy a house for yourself!" Feng Lei is a cadre now, so he has a long-term vision.

"Your sister and I have already bought it, and now we have opened a restaurant, Shaun Xiangju. We bought that house a long time ago." Liu Qingshan explained with a smile.

"Brother-in-law, you are so amazing! You launched such a big satellite without making any noise." Feng Lei said in surprise with his eyes wide open.

"Your sister and I have some money on hand, but it's just sitting there and won't make any money. We might as well buy some real estate. Opening a store will be just a side job." Liu Qingshan said with a smile.

"I estimate that my house will be ready in about a month. It's a small building of more than 60 square meters. By then, my parents won't be able to live with me." Feng Lei and his wife are quite filial. They take good care of the elderly couple at home and don't let Feng Yu and him worry too much.

"How much money do you have on hand? Why don't you buy a small yard so that it will be convenient for your family to live together. If you don't have enough money, your brother-in-law will give it to you first." Liu Qingshan said seriously.

He really wanted to help Feng Lei. Feng Lei himself was a grateful person. Moreover, Liu Qingshan was in a better condition now and had the ability, so he wanted to help them.

"Nowadays, it would cost nearly ten thousand to buy a small yard, and I only have a little over two thousand on hand." Feng Lei supports the whole family by himself, and he really can't save much money.

"Then you should look for a suitable house during this time. When your house is allocated, I will help you make up the difference." Liu Qingshan said with a smile.

"Don't bother yourself. You and my sister have a big family. How can we use your money?"

Feng Lei shook his head and insisted on his own idea.

"Then just think of it as a loan from me and pay me back when you have money in the future." Liu Qingshan didn't actually intend to ask him to pay it back, this was just an excuse.

"Brother-in-law, let's talk about this in a few days. I'll go back and discuss it with my family." Feng Lei still couldn't make up his mind, but he was somewhat tempted.

The two chatted for a while, and then Liu Qingshan said goodbye and left.

He was strolling along the way and didn't think about going home. Since he had nothing to do, he went to the department store.

At this time, department stores had many more products than before. The dazzling array of goods made Liu Qingshan dazzled.

When Liu Qingshan reached the TV counter, he immediately saw Xu Damao. He thought to himself, "Shouldn't he be in the video room at this time? Why is he here?"

Xu Damao was staring at a color TV at the moment, watching it intently.

"Don't let your eyes ruin it. Are you going to buy it or not?" the salesperson said rudely to Xu Damao, whose eyes were almost glued to the TV.

"How do you know I won't buy it? Can't I just take a look?" Xu Damao said angrily.

"This color TV is very expensive. One costs more than two thousand. Can you afford it?"

"How do you know I can't afford it? It's not like I don't have money."

Xu Damao really couldn't bear to do it, as he couldn't come up with two thousand yuan right now.

Although he made a lot of money working in the video hall, he couldn't save more than two thousand in a short period of time.

Xu Damao had no choice but to look at the 14-inch black and white TV.

He remembered that Sha Zhu in the yard bought a 12-inch TV, and Liu Qingshan also bought a 12-inch TV. He had to be better than them. Xu Damao could not stand any grievance.

I was irritated by Lou Xiao'e yesterday, and I have to vent it out today.

After a while, Xu Damao paid more than a thousand yuan and bought a 14-inch black and white TV.

The TV was tied to the back seat of the car, and Xu Damao pushed it towards the courtyard with a proud look on his face. When Xu Damao arrived at the courtyard, it was time for dinner.

Liu Qingshan was bored and followed Xu Damao all the way. Seeing Xu Damao showing off like a peacock, Liu Qingshan thought it was quite interesting.

Just now when he was in the department store, he had an impulse in his heart. He planned to buy a color TV and follow Xu Damao. If he hadn't brought enough money, he might have really done it.

As soon as Xu Damao pushed the car into the courtyard, he was caught by several old men.

"Hey! Damao didn't go to the video hall today? What's this in the car?" The third uncle spoke first out of habit.

"Da Hu helped to keep an eye on it today. My family still doesn't have a TV. And today I happened to have some free time, so I went to the department store and bought a TV, a 14-inch black and white TV." Xu Damao said indifferently.

The third uncle's attention immediately turned to the TV, and he watched it carefully from the back seat of the bicycle.

"It seems that Damao has made a fortune. This TV is bigger than the one in Zhuzi's house." Yi Zhonghai said with a smile.

"Yes, the one Zhuzi bought was a twelve-inch one. At that time, it seemed that the fourteen-inch one was not available. The stock was too scarce." Liu Haizhong and He Daqing leaned against each other, and he would go to see it when he had nothing to do.

"Haven't you surpassed Zhuzi recently? Your TV is the first of its kind in our courtyard!" Seeing how happy Xu Damao was, the third uncle praised him even more.

"I'm not targeting him. I don't have a TV at home and it's really inconvenient. But I happen to have the conditions and I can't treat myself badly!" When Xu Damao said this, the three cunning guys didn't believe it at all, but no one exposed him.

Liu Qingshan stood outside the door, listened carefully, and then walked in.
