Siheyuan: I just want to live

The next morning, Chen Feng got up from the bed on the second floor. Chen Feng and his friends had dinner until very late yesterday, and they were all very full.

After the banquet, Chen Feng saw everyone off, cleaned up the mess, washed the dishes, and then went upstairs to sleep.

After getting up, he checked the time and it was past seven. Chen Feng washed up and then pushed his bike to work.

Today Chen Feng did not take the main road, but kept walking through the small alleys. After finding an empty dead end.

Chen Feng released the tricycle from the space, then carried the bicycle, rode the tricycle to the main road, and continued to work at the scrap yard.

Chen Feng bought breakfast on the way and ate it while riding his tricycle.

After arriving at the scrap yard, Chen Feng parked the tricycle at the warehouse door. He unloaded the bicycle and pushed it back to the message room. Zhou Ping would naturally find the tricycle at the warehouse door when he went to work, and then locked it up.

After parking his bike and returning to the reception room, Chen Feng sat in front of the table in a daze again. Oh! Another day that I don't want to go to work!

Fortunately, today is the end of the month, and I will get paid in the afternoon, so I can go home after I get paid. I don't have to sit in the scrap yard all day.

After sitting for a while, Chen Feng left the message room and began to walk slowly around the scrap yard.

It has been almost a month since Chen Feng last searched for treasures in the scrap heap. It’s time to look again.

Chen Feng didn't find anything good the last few times, he just picked up two kilograms of copper coins from the copper pile, among which there were some that Chen Feng had never seen before.

After wandering around for a whole morning, Chen Feng didn't find anything good. He just found a red sandalwood chair leg and half a chair seat among a pile of broken furniture.

Chen Feng took the things back to the communication room directly without going to the finance department to pay. It was just a small amount of things, less than ten cents in total, not worth paying for.

I returned to the message room, took out some food from the space, ate lunch, and fell asleep on the table, waiting to get my salary in the afternoon.

After work in the afternoon, Li Guotao started paying wages on time.

Chen Feng was still the last one in line, since he had plenty of time anyway. There were not many people at the scrapyard, and the wages were paid quickly, so Chen Feng was not worried about waiting in line too late.

Soon, it was Chen Feng's turn to collect his salary. He signed and took the 25.5 yuan and a stack of bills from Sun Xiaojuan.

Chen Feng counted the money. Although the 25.5 was not as much as what he earned from selling rabbits, it was what Chen Feng earned by working hard!

Well, at least Chen Feng thought he was working diligently. It didn’t matter whether other people at the scrap yard thought so or not!

After counting the money, Chen Feng checked the tickets again, took out the two taels of oil tickets and two taels of meat tickets, put the other money tickets into his pocket, and then handed the meat and oil tickets to Sun Xiaojuan.

He said, "Move, this ticket is for you!"

Sun Xiaojuan looked at the bill that Chen Feng handed over, was stunned for a moment, and then asked in confusion, "Why are you giving it to me? Don't you eat meat or oil yourself?"

Chen Feng said indifferently, "I work part-time as a purchasing agent. How can I be without my own meat and oil? Take it! Go back and buy some meat to feed the child!"

Sun Xiaojuan was moved when she heard Chen Feng's words. She knew that her relationship with Chen Feng was very simple, that is, exchanging her body for food. She also didn't expect that Chen Feng would care about her son.

Sun Xiaojuan took the bill and put it in her pocket. Then she whispered to Chen Feng:

"Chen Feng, you've moved away from the scrap yard. How can I find you in the future? There are so many people in your hospital, and it's not convenient!"

Chen Feng thought for a moment, then said to Sun Xiaojuan, "Wait for me outside the scrapyard for a while, I'll take you to a place! We'll meet there later."

When Sun Xiaojuan heard what Chen Feng said, she nodded to indicate that she understood.

Seeing her look, Chen Feng didn't say much, turned around and left the finance office.

After Chen Feng came out, he found that all the employees of the scrap yard had left, leaving only himself, Sun Xiaojuan and two security guards.

Chen Feng returned to the message room, put on his schoolbag, and packed up. Then he saw Sun Xiaojuan starting to walk out, and Chen Feng also pushed his bicycle out of the door of the scrap yard.

After locking the door, Chen Feng saw Sun Xiaojuan walking forward slowly. He quickly caught up with her and said, "Follow me closely!" when he passed her.

In this way, the two of them walked towards Dongzhimen one after the other.

Chen Feng did not ride his bike during the journey, fearing that Sun Xiaojuan could not keep up with him. He did not dare to carry Sun Xiaojuan, fearing that she would be spotted by the old ladies with bound feet.

After walking for more than half an hour, Chen Feng and his team finally left the city. Chen Feng led Sun Xiaojuan to the gate of the yard, then Chen Feng took out the key and opened the door.

After the two of them went in, Chen Feng closed the door again, and then he said to Sun Xiaojuan, "Sister Sun, if you miss me in the future, tell me after get off work. Let's come here, it's quiet here."

After that, Chen Feng handed the key to Sun Xiaojuan and said, "Take the key and go get another one. When I have time, I will clean out a room. You can stay here overnight if you have nothing to do in the future."

Sun Xiaojuan took the key, looked around the front yard, and then asked, "How did you get this yard?"

Chen Feng quickly rejected the idea, saying, "This is not mine, it belongs to my friend! His family went to the south and asked me to help look after the yard. When he comes back, I will give it back to him!"

Chen Feng would not admit that the yard belonged to him, so he created a friend out of nothing.

After hearing what Chen Feng said, Sun Xiaojuan did not ask any further questions.

Only who were Chen Feng's friends? Why did he go to the south? When would he come back? None of these were asked.

She is not Chen Feng's wife, why ask so many questions! She can just have a place to meet Chen Feng privately. There is no point in caring so much!

Without dwelling on these issues, Sun Xiaojuan began to tour the house. After a round, Sun Xiaojuan came to the main house, and Chen Feng followed her into the main house.

Looking at the tattered mat on the kang in the east room, the two of them looked at each other. The look was self-evident, and then...

Chen Feng and Sun Xiaojuan played outside the city until about 4pm before returning to the city. They walked separately. Chen Feng rode his bicycle first, and on the way he saw many people from the steel mill and cotton mill getting off work.

When Chen Feng returned to the courtyard gate, it was almost five o'clock. He happened to meet Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong leading Sha Zhu and Jia Dongxu back from get off work.

Yan Fugui was talking to Yi Zhonghai, and Liu Haizhong, Sha Zhu and Jia Dongxu were listening.

Chen Feng stopped his bicycle at the gate of the courtyard, then walked into the courtyard with the bicycle in his hand.

At this time, Yan Fugui saw Chen Feng coming back, and he didn't bother to talk to Yi Zhonghai. Instead, he stopped Chen Feng and said, "Hey! Chen Feng, don't leave in a hurry. I have something to ask you!"

Chen Feng thought Yan Fugui had something important to say, so he put down his bicycle and waited for Yan Fugui to speak.

Yi Zhonghai and the others stopped talking and looked at Yan Fugui and Chen Feng to see what they were going to say.

Yan Fugui saw Chen Feng stopped, so he said, "Chen Feng, how could you lie to your uncle yesterday?"

As soon as Chen Feng saw him speak, he knew that Yan Fugui must be here because of what he had invited Xu Damao and the Jiang family to yesterday. Otherwise, Chen Feng had only spoken a few words to Yan Fugui yesterday, so how could he lie to him?

So Chen Feng asked knowingly, "Teacher Yan, where did you say that? When did I lie to you?"

Seeing that Chen Feng refused to admit it, Yan Fugui became anxious and said quickly, "Yesterday! You clearly told me yesterday that we were only repairing the house and not celebrating!"

"Then why did you invite Xu Damao and the Jiang family to dinner tonight?"

Yan Fugui changed the subject and said, "Even if you invite Xu Damao and the Jiang family to dinner, you should also invite the three of us!"

Yi Zhonghai heard Yan Fugui's words and nodded repeatedly, saying, "Old Yan is right! Chen Feng, there are some problems with your handling of this matter!"

Seeing that Yi Zhonghai had spoken, Sha Zhu and Jia Dongxu also quickly spoke up, "Chen Feng, the Third Uncle is right! How could you forget the three uncles?"

When everyone supported Yan Fugui, Liu Haizhong stood aside and remained silent.

Seeing so many people standing on his side, Yan Fugui began to feel proud.

Chen Feng didn't want to pay attention to Yan Fugui at first, but looking at his current situation, if Chen Feng didn't answer, it might be difficult for him to get away.

So Chen Feng said, "Yan Fugui, who told you that I was celebrating the completion of my new house yesterday?"

Yan Fugui heard Chen Feng say this, so he asked, "If you are not celebrating, why did you invite Xu Damao and the Jiang family to dinner?"

Chen Feng replied with a smile, "Yesterday I invited the people who helped me move furniture last weekend. I was thanking them. Did you help me move furniture? Why should I invite you? Because you are thick-skinned?"

After Chen Feng finished speaking, the scene was silent. They did not expect Chen Feng to say that. However, they really did not help on that weekend.

Xu Damao and his son really helped to carry the furniture, and Yan Fugui also saw Aunt Jiang looking at the cart at the door.

When everyone was silent, Jia Dongxu whispered, "Who knows if what you said is true? I think you just look down on the three uncles!"

Although Jia Dongxu spoke softly, the entrance was so small that everyone could hear him clearly.

When Yi Zhonghai and Yan Fugui heard what Jia Dongxu said, their expressions changed.

Yi Zhonghai's eyes suddenly became sharp, as if he wanted to kill Chen Feng. Yan Fugui looked at Chen Feng with a playful look on his face, with a faint smile on his face!

Of course Chen Feng also heard what Jia Dongxu said. He glanced at Jia Dongxu calmly and said, "Believe it or not, it's okay if you don't believe it! It has nothing to do with me anyway!"

After Chen Feng finished speaking, he was ready to push his bicycle away. Looking at Yan Fugui who was still blocking the road ahead, he said impatiently, "Get out of the way! Don't block the road! I want to go home!"
