Siheyuan: Starting to work in the street office

Looking at the condition of this house, there is no need to rebuild it anymore, so just leave it as it is.

Let's wait until we have a chance to rebuild the entire yard. There is really no need for it now and it is just a ruin again.

Zhong Shan looked through it and found nothing valuable inside. The only valuable thing was the radio. Fortunately, although there was a little dust on it and the skin was slightly scratched, there was no major damage.

After there was nothing left in the yard, Zhong Shan left.

It looks like I won't be able to come here again in the short term.

Then a massive reconstruction project was launched in the old city, and the courtyard of No. 95 remained the same as in the original drama. Yan Bugui looked at the wood of his own family on the ground and fell into deep thought.

The area next to and in front of my house is not small. Although the earthquake is over, I can take this opportunity to build a permanent earthquake shelter. In this way, I have an excuse. After a long time, this earthquake shelter will be transformed into a few more rooms in my house.

The more Yan Bugui thought about it, the more he felt that this was feasible. However, he couldn't be the only one to step forward in this matter. He had to find someone to help him. But who should he find?

Several people in the old Zhong family have no shortage of houses at the moment, not to mention Yi Zhonghai and He Yuzhu. Qin Huairu's family also has only one son, and her daughter will be married sooner or later. After much thought, the only person who can go along with him is Liu Haizhong.

But Liu Haizhong has always regarded the Yan family as his enemy, so this matter is not easy to deal with.

Yan Bugui thought about it for two days but couldn't come up with a good idea. It was almost their turn to clean up the house. No, they couldn't wait any longer. The opportunity must not be missed.

Thinking of this, Yan Bugui could only bite the bullet and walk to the backyard. He stood at the door of Liu Haizhong's house for a while, then gritted his teeth and knocked on Liu's door.

It was broad daylight and the work had been suspended recently, so the neighbors were all at home. Naturally, some of them saw Yan Bugui. They were a little surprised to see that he actually went to Liu Haizhong's house. Don't your two families have a grudge against each other?

"Lao Liu, are you home? Lao Liu, I have something to talk to you about."

Liu Haizhong, who was packing things in the house, was stunned when he heard Yan Bugui's voice. Why did this person come to his house? Doesn't he usually avoid him?

Although Liu Haizhong didn't want to see Yan Bugui's old face, the person was already at the door, and it was annoying to hear him calling him all the time, so he had to stop what he was doing and open the door.

"Mr. Yan, why are you here in my house? If you have something to say, say it now. If you have something to say, fart now. Then leave now. You are not welcome in my house."

"Look at you, Old Liu. Why are you talking so harshly? Why would I come to see you if I have nothing to do? There must be something wrong. It must be something good. Let's go inside and talk. It won't be good if others hear it."

After hearing what Yan Bugui said, Liu Haizhong stared at him for two seconds.

Old Yan narrowed his eyes and had a lot of bad ideas. Would you like to listen to them?

Thinking of this, Liu Haizhong moved aside to make room for one person to pass through without saying anything.

When Yan Bugui saw this, he naturally didn't need anyone to give way to him, and he squeezed into the house directly with his belly sticking to his bangs.

The second aunt heard the sound and saw Yan Bugui entering the room.

"Old Liu, why did you let him in? Didn't the Yan family cause us so much harm?"

When Liu Haizhong heard his wife's words, he didn't refute or agree with her, but just snorted coldly.

"Hmph, I'd like to see what he has to say if he insists on coming in."

Yan Bugui didn't care about the sarcasm from the other person and said to Liu Haizhong with a smile.

"Old Liu, let's put aside the grudges between our two families. I really have something good here, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. You are the first person I thought of, and I am sincere."

Liu Haizhong interrupted Yan Bugui impatiently.

"Hurry up and tell me what's going on. If you don't, I'll ask you to leave. I have work to do here and I don't have time to listen to you nagging."

Seeing that both of them were being impolite, Yan Bugui smiled awkwardly and did not dare to continue talking about anything else.

"Old Liu, look, our yard will soon be lined up for house repairs, and the earthquake shelter in the yard will soon be demolished. Don't you have any ideas?"

After listening to this, Liu Haizhong felt itchy on his head, as if a brain was growing on it. However, after itching for a while, he calmed down again. He still couldn't figure it out.

"Just say what you want to say, don't beat around the bush."

Yan Bugui was speechless. It was so obvious and yet you couldn't see it. However, he had no choice but to say it clearly.

"Lao Liu, when the construction team arrives, we can build two small earthquake shelters on our own land. We can make them sturdy, build brick walls, and use large tiles on the roof.

It can also be used as a precaution. Even if it is not used, you can put some things in it. Besides, our two children are grown up. Your Guangfu and Guangtian are adults when they come back. Where will the children live? Now I want to buy a house but I have nowhere to get the money. Isn’t this a good opportunity?"

After listening to Yan Bugui's words, Liu Haizhong and his wife looked at each other. It was obvious that they were both moved. Just as he said, this was indeed an opportunity. If they missed this, it would be extremely difficult to buy a house again.

There is only a piece of open space in front of my house, and I can't block the way for the Zhong siblings, otherwise they won't give way. So I can only build it in front, next to the back wall of the house in the middle courtyard, and I can build two rooms. Then the two sons can live with me, and each of them can live in the two rooms, which will be enough.

Seeing that Liu Haizhong was obviously moved, Yan Bugui continued to speak.

"Old Liu, we have to discuss this. No one else in this courtyard needs a house, and they don't need one urgently, but our two families need one urgently, and our children are all grown up. If we don't think of a solution, we will be caught in a dilemma when the time comes. We must form a united front, otherwise Old Yi will not let us build one."

For the sake of the house, Liu Haizhong temporarily put aside his hatred towards the Yan family.

"So what do you say about this?"

Seeing that the matter was accomplished, Yan Bugui's face was full of smiles.

"Let's leave it to him to do it first and ask for his permission later. When they are cleaning up the house, we will be the last in line. After they go to work, we will speed up and build the house directly. When they come back and see it, we can't just tear down the house. We can just say we are building an earthquake shelter and put it off for as long as possible. Slowly, they will get used to it and no one will bother us anymore."

Liu Haizhong nodded after listening. The method was not complicated, but it sounded reliable. The brave ones would die of overeating while the timid ones would die of starvation. So he did it.

After the two families had discussed it, Yan Bugui left the Liu family happily and went home to discuss building a house.

Yan Bugui's family is different from Liu Haizhong's family. Liu Haizhong's family is in the backyard, with the back wall of the middle yard to the south. There is no door, only a small window at the top of the back wall. The house in the middle yard is high, and if the house in the back is built lower, it will not be able to block the view at all, so two rooms can be built together.
