Siheyuan: I can always stay out of it

The only good thing is that the New Year is almost here, and as long as Yi Zhonghai can get through these few days, he will have time to adjust his condition.

Now he made up his mind to go to the hospital as soon as he had a holiday, and use this excuse to check whether the folk remedy he had been taking for so long was effective.

The factory's welfare this year still wasn't food. Although the workers had expected this, they were still disappointed.

Chen Xu looked at the little bit of fabric that was handed to him. It was too little to make a bellyband, not to mention clothes for Lin Chan. At most, it could make a rag...

Fortunately, they also sent out some other things, such as toothbrushes and so on.

The factory has no other choice. It is lucky enough if it can get some supplies and distribute some welfare benefits. There is no hope for anything else.

Chen Xu originally planned to go back to his hometown to pick up Lin Chan. After all, it is necessary to get the marriage certificate before getting married.

Unfortunately, just like last year, Li Huaide began to gather his core members for dinner.

As a person who is currently in the limelight, Chen Xu naturally cannot escape.

Li Huaide is still the boy who gives away money, and he is full of energy. It seems that good things are about to happen.

Chen Xu knew a little bit that the deputy factory director would retire in the early spring of next year, and Li Huaide would naturally take over the position. This matter had already been decided.

Li Huaide is even more generous this year than last year. He gives away all kinds of cigarettes and alcohol that are hard to get nowadays as if they were free.

Chen Xu felt that the trip was not in vain. Li Huaide knew that he did not smoke, so he prepared wine and tea for him. When he left, he patted him on the shoulder and told him to work hard, and whispered to him to look forward to promotion in the spring of next year.

He stretched out his hand and made the number four. Chen Xu understood immediately: a level four clerk, which was one level higher than he had guessed.

Where can I find such a caring leader?

Chen Xu felt that if he had not set his sights on a career in government, he would have to express his stance on the spot:

[Xu has been wandering for half his life, and only regrets that he has never met a wise master. If you don't abandon me, I am willing to be your adoptive father...]

on vacation.

Chen Xu looked at the thick snow with a look of annoyance. He couldn't ride his bike, so he could only walk to pick up Lin Chan.

The snow this year is particularly heavy. Not only can you not ride a bike, but you can't even take the bus.

Auspicious snow indicates a good harvest...

Chen Xu sighed, but he seemed to have thought of something bad.

I remember it was in 1962 or 1963, there was a flood in the city of Sijiu, and it almost turned into a lake.

Could it be that there was too much rain in the past two years and there was a flood? ?

Fucking rain.

Chen Xu cursed as he walked towards his hometown, one step deep and one step shallow.

In a small house in the courtyard, a small girl who was curled up on the bed reading a book because of the cold weather sneezed violently.

"Who scolded me?"

The little girl rubbed her nose, and the faces of Chen Xu and Xu Damao appeared in her mind.

"It must be these two guys."

Xu Damao was caught in the crossfire.

The Civil Affairs Bureau is closed for the next two days, so if you want to get the certificate, you have to hurry. Chen Xu plans to take Lin Chan back to Sijiu City as soon as he returns today, so they should make it in time.

From morning to noon, Chen Xu arrived at the Hongqi Commune. Looking at the girl standing in the commune looking at him with a smile on her face, Chen Xu also started to smile.

"I guessed you'd be back today."

"Why don't you wait for me at home?"

"Aren't you going back to Sijiu City today?"

Lin Chan looked at Chen Xu with a pair of bright eyes.

Chen Xu smiled. The little girl was probably quite anxious too.

"Let's go back to Sijiu City."

"Ah."

After walking nearly a hundred miles in one breath, in such snowy weather, Chen Xu almost felt like his legs were not his own.

At the entrance of the Civil Affairs Bureau, Lin Chan looked at Chen Xu who came back from the toilet.

Chen Xu naturally went to the space to recover, as his toes were almost numb.

"Don't worry, time is running out."

"Ah."

Lin Chan felt a little embarrassed. Chen Xu went straight to the toilet when he arrived at the Civil Affairs Bureau. If she didn't trust him so much, she might have thought he was going to pee.

Both of them were a little excited when they came out of the Civil Affairs Bureau. The marriage certificate now is not a small red book, but a piece of paper, but the effect is the same.

"Let's go back to the courtyard."

On the streets of the old city, two figures were pressed closely together, and the freezing weather seemed to have a hint of warmth.

The courtyard was quite lively. The children were not afraid of the cold and were having snowball fights.

It was almost evening when they returned to the courtyard.

Xu Damao and Lou Xiao'e were getting impatient waiting in the courtyard, especially Lou Xiao'e, who was a little restless. It was getting later, but the guy next to her was getting more and more energetic, almost laughing out loud.

After giving Xu Damao a blank look, Lou Xiao'e was just about to say that she wanted to go home when she saw two snowmen appear outside and was immediately overjoyed.

"You are finally back."

Xu Damao followed behind with a constipated look on his face.

It's okay to come back an hour later...

"Yes, the road is not easy to walk on."

Chen Xu said with a smile.

Lou Xiao'e hurried over to help Lin Chan brush off the snow on his body.

"Is the meal ready?"

"What do you say?"

Xu Damao was absent-minded and such a good opportunity was wasted.

Chen Xu wanted to laugh for some reason. This was not the first time that Xu Damao had been humiliated by Lou Xiao'e. Ever since he was sent to the hospital by silly E's sweet trick, Lou Xiao'e refused to do anything beneficial to Xu Damao's body and mind no matter what.

This led to this guy complaining to Chen Xu countless times.

"Okay, I'll go cook. Is the food ready?"

"Everything has been cut, the rice has been cooked, and we are just waiting for the vegetables to be put into the pot."

Xu Damao was still listless, and Chen Xu was too lazy to pay attention to him and went straight to the kitchen to cook.

Chen Xu was very satisfied with the pot of rice. He thought it was brought by Lou Xiaoe. Rice is really hard to get nowadays.

Outside, Lou Xiao'e and Lin Chan were chatting animatedly, and from time to time one could hear Sha'ezi's laughter.

quack quack!

Like a big Northeast goose.

This woman is not the Lou Xiao'e at the beginning of the story. She is much more lively in character. Chen Xu feels that this is also good. No matter how beautiful a lifeless person looks or how well he dresses, he will not have that kind of healthy energy.

Lin Chan is the type of person who is full of energy, and Chen Xu likes her very much.

Because the meal was being cooked at Chen Xu's house, the laughter and joy coming from the house made the families in the backyard sigh.

Liu Haizhong started liking drinking after Liu Guangqi left. Although the second uncle also drank frequently before, he is now obviously more greedy than before. He likes to get drunk as soon as he has holidays.

The second aunt was a little worried about Liu Haizhong's health, but she couldn't persuade him and could only sigh helplessly. She knew very well that Liu Haizhong still couldn't let go of his son, especially after Liu Haizhong received the money sent back by the eldest brother.

When he heard the laughter coming from Chen Xu's house, Liu Haizhong was already seven parts drunk.

He burped and looked at the second aunt drunkenly with his bangs.

"Wife, do you think that boy will bring me a daughter-in-law?"

"Yes, definitely."

The second aunt tried hard to hold back her tears. This was the first time that Liu Haizhong talked about Liu Guangqi. Normally, the family didn't dare to talk about this for fear of upsetting Old Liu.

The two younger ones have no desire to live. It seems that their dad still treats their older brother as a treasure. The two brothers are indeed picked up...

The deaf old lady also heard the noise in Chen Xu's house and sighed softly. She thought how great it would have been if she had helped Chen Xu at the beginning. She also observed Chen Xu for a long time and found that this boy had a very good habit.

That is, he seems to be very good to his own people, like Xu Damao. At the beginning, Xu Damao was suppressed by Yi Zhonghai and Sha Zhu, but after being with Chen Xu, Xu Damao is now definitely a winner in life in Siheyuan.

Although she was not clear about the specific reasons, she definitely did not believe that Chen Xu was not among them.

This kid not only has the ability to make himself look decent, but he can also bring Xu Damao along with him, which is very rare.

Unfortunately, in the courtyard, only Xu Damao can talk to Chen Xu, and Chen Xu basically ignores people like them.

The deaf old lady felt somewhat regretful. She had been observing people all her life, but she didn't expect that when she was old and wise, she would be wrong.
