Siheyuan: Big City, Small Love

"Yushui, have you made your choice? There are only two types of women's bicycles!"

He Lai looked at Yu Shui and was still comparing them. The Forever 42 light women's bicycle and the Forever 43 women's bicycle were almost the same!

I seriously suspect that the rain is looking for differences, as if it is the "Find the Differences" game from the previous life!

"Brother Lai, I want this one." When Yu Shui heard this, he pointed at the Type 42 and said to He.

"Are you sure? The 43 next to it is a later model, so its performance may be better."

He Lai smiled and teased the rain.

"Then I...then I...will choose No. 43." Yu Shui turned his head to No. 43 again.

"Yushui, why don't you step aside? I'll mix up these two cars. Can you guess which one is 42 and which one is 43?"

He Lai said with a smile.

"Oh, brother Lai, you're annoying. I don't care. I want this one."

Yu Shui's face was red as she grabbed the back seat of the Type 43.

"Okay, let's go to the counter. I guess the salesperson is getting impatient."

He Lai stopped teasing Yu Shui and took her to get the tickets.

"Comrade, we want that Forever 43, how much is it?"

He Lai first put the bicycle ticket in his pocket on the counter.

"263 yuan." The male salesperson picked up the bicycle ticket and checked it again. After confirming that it was legitimate, he said something.

He Lai was a little confused. Then he thought that maybe he had looked at the rain for too long and made the male salesperson unhappy.

He Lai had no choice but to take out some money, count out 263 yuan, and put it on the counter.

The male salesperson counted the money quickly, and it took him four or five minutes before he slowly started to process the procedures for He Lai.

He Lai didn't dare to argue with him because this was someone else's territory.

Soon Yu Shui got the bicycle and the two left.

The male salesperson watched the two people leave, feeling very angry. He didn't expect He Lai to be so patient. He wanted to teach He Lai a lesson, but he couldn't find the opportunity.

I was supposed to remind the customer to go to the police station to get a stamp, but I didn’t.

"Brother Lai, why is this bicycle so expensive? Isn't it around 180?"

Yu Shui said a little embarrassedly.

"Yeah, we must have been cheated by that guy. Let's go back and return it."

"Ah, then... okay..."

When I heard that the rain was going to stop, I felt a little sad and was thinking about turning around.

He Lai got on his bicycle and rode forward.

Yu Shui was stunned for a moment before realizing that she had been deceived by He Lai again, and quickly got in the car to chase after him.

……

"Brother Lai, you lied again."

"It's very troublesome to return the car now. I don't dare to return it. Look at the man selling the car. He is so fierce."

He Lai explained with a smile.

Yu Shui thought of the salesperson's cold expression and became afraid instantly.

After all, I have heard of salesmen beating people. The salesmen do not have to take responsibility after beating people, and the people who were beaten still have to be educated.

"So where are we going now? Home?"

"Of course I went to the police station and reported someone stealing a bicycle."

"Humph, I know it's going to be stamped."

"Let's go..."

After the two of them got their bicycle licenses stamped at the police station, they left.

I met Secretary Sun on the way.

"Brother Sun, what are you doing?"

"Hey, there's an old man in Yard 90 who's sick. I'm going to the hospital to see if his condition has improved."

"Which hospital? Is it far? Just ride my bike. Your street office asked to lend you a bike, but you never borrowed one from me!"

He Lai pushed the bicycle in his hand to Secretary Sun and said jokingly.

"Hey, I have borrowed it before. Your mother often borrowed it from you. There are many bicycles in your yard, and sometimes you are busy, so she didn't borrow it from you."

Secretary Sun took it reluctantly and explained.

"Then you go quickly. Yu Shui and I will go back." He Lai and Yu Shui pushed their bicycles away.

Secretary Sun looked at He Lai and the other man. They had just bought another bicycle. They were really rich.

……

He Lai and Yu Shui pushed the cart in from Yard 94.

"Hey, He Lai, you bought a new bicycle. Where's the old one? Didn't you ride it out this morning?"

When Aunt Qian saw the new bicycle, she immediately came forward and asked a lot of questions.

"Aunt Qian, this is Yu Shui's bicycle. My neighborhood office borrowed it."

He Lai explained with a smile.

"Hey, He Lai, can Aunt Qian ask you a favor?"

"Uh, whatever it is, just tell me."

He Lai was stunned. Could it be the female version of Yan Fugui?

"Well, my son is getting married on May 1st. Can you lend me your bicycle?"

Aunt Qian said a little embarrassedly, it was because He Lai was the only one in the yard who had a bicycle.

"Okay, this is a big deal, just come and get it when the time comes, I will definitely lend it to you, if there is nothing else, we will leave first."

He Lai said with a smile.

"Okay, okay, go ahead, thank you." When Aunt Qian heard He Lai agreed readily, she was so happy that she hurried back to the house to discuss it.

"Old Qian, He Lai agreed."

"I heard you. You are such a nice guy. Now we have two bicycles and I don't have to spend money to borrow one."

Uncle Qian said with a smile.

"Your broken bicycle makes noises everywhere except the bell, and the factory won't even bother to replace it for you."

Aunt Qian complained.

"Well, it's good to have a bicycle. Many newcomers take the bus to the countryside. There are only a few bicycles in the entire purchasing department. Do you think we are a steel mill?"

Uncle Qian regrets so much now. He wishes he had worked in a steel rolling mill, which was close and had better pay.

He Lai and his companion pushed their bicycles through the middle yard and the back yard, attracting a large crowd of onlookers. After all, there were no bicycles in the yard. Only Uncle Qian had a broken bicycle, which belonged to the factory.

"Hey, He Lai, why doesn't this bicycle have a front bumper? Will it be sturdy?"

One resident said.

"This is a women's bicycle, so there is no front bar to make it easier for them to get on and off. It is actually very sturdy, but of course it can't carry heavy things like a 28-inch bicycle."

He Lai explained.

"Oh, I see. That's really unusual. Bicycles are divided into men's and women's. This bike must be very expensive. It looks much more beautiful than a 28-inch bicycle."

"Almost, almost. Yu Shui is about to graduate, so I bought one."

Everyone sighed and thought to themselves that Yu Shui was really lucky.

After everyone left, He Lai pushed the bicycle into the house and went to Wu Juan with Yu Shui.

……

"Mom, why can't I see Dad? Where did he go?"

"He went back to the steel mill. He said he had something to do." Wu Juan replied casually. After all, this was not the first time that the security department had problems.

"Oh." He Lai thought about it and realized that the security department is really busy now, just like the police, they need to be seconded everywhere.

After all, in order to crack down on various illegal activities, sometimes we have to go to the black market to catch some people, show our faces, and make it look like we are doing something.

"I've bought the bicycle. Is it next door?" Wu Juan asked.

"Well, mother, a women's bicycle, it's very pretty."

Yu Shui said happily while hugging Wu Juan's arm.

"As long as Yu Shui likes it." Wu Juan looked at Yu Shui's happy expression, patted her clothes and said with a smile.
