The meal at Niuniu's new house, not to mention the few strong young men who helped with the work, and the old secretary who had been poor all his life, even the somewhat knowledgeable Yin Laoliu and Cui Carpenter were all stunned, and even Yu In Huaihai and Xiangbei, the children with good financial conditions were a little confused.
In this era, what is the concept of having enough wine and meat for more than a dozen big men?
Except for extremely special departments and organizations, they basically do not exist. This is simply the style of Liangshan heroes.
Actually, Comrade Xiao Du has two meanings, right?
First, it was a way to show off their wealth and show off their muscles. For the last time, they completely subdued these simple commune men, including Yin Laoliu and Cui Carpenter, and gave them food and drink, so that they could brag for at least 10 years.
Second, in fact, from Comrade Xiao Du's perspective, this house is too rough, with cement walls, dirt floors, and no ceiling. You can see the beams and linoleum roof directly when you look up. In addition to being quite spacious and comfortable, Apart from its superb speed, it had almost no advantages at all, and Xiao Du was a little dissatisfied.
Comrade Xiao Du is actually in Versailles. Just these two rooms, in the northern rural areas of the country and even in rural areas across the country, are definitely first-class, one-plus-one houses, even if they are the same in 10 years.
Damn, can you compare with 2022? This fucking time span spans a full 60 years.
In fact, Comrade Xiao Du is still a little worried about his house. If it turns out to be like this, then he might as well not repair it and it will be manageable.
Anyway, it’s still a dogfight, so why shouldn’t it be a dogfight?
After drinking a few glasses of wine, Comrade Xiao Du made some remarks to Yin Laoliu, intentionally or unintentionally.
Yin Laoliu was also a person who had been in the martial arts world. He understood immediately and leaned into Comrade Xiao Du's ear and said:
"Boss, you have really wronged me. First of all, your house does not need to be demolished, and the foundation does not need to be moved, and the outer walls do not need to be moved. Then the five of us will have to work for more than 20 days. Think about the difference. How big.”
"Also, leader, what kind of materials are used in your house? This house in the countryside is really too finely built, but it's a disaster. It's deliberately rough. It's good, as long as it doesn't delay your stay."
Xiao Du has actually reacted now, and he is confused if he cares.
And looking at the extremely envious eyes of the old secretary and a group of strong men, as well as the extremely satisfied eyes of Niuniu, the left lady, Comrade Xiao Du deeply reflected on himself. Damn it, the comparison standard was wrong.
In this era, a good family is considered to have a tile head to protect them from the wind and rain. Haven't you seen that most of the villages are made of adobe and thatched houses?
After drinking this meal, he asked the old secretary and a group of capable men to help take care of Aunt Zuo and Niu Niu.
A group of simple men banged their chests, and even the steady old secretary clapped his chests in assurance.
After drinking and eating, everyone staggered away and went home to brag.
At this time, Comrade Xiao Du had a conversation with Aunt Zuo and Niuniu, and some things had to be explained. After all, he was going to work soon and didn't have that much time to come here often.
"Auntie, I will go back to the factory to report for work soon. Once I start working, I won't have time to come here often. The house I live in is not going to work anymore. It needs to be renovated recently. I will take you back when the house is repaired. Go and identify yourself with Niuniu."
"Niuniu will go to Hongxing Commune Primary School in September. Three miles is not too far. You don't have to worry about the tuition. I'll take care of it."
"Auntie, the food and oil I have prepared for you will be enough for you and Niuniu for one season. Don't be sparing. Niuniu is growing up. Don't lend things to others. We can't help so many people. We can't Be a bad guy."
"Auntie, I will leave you another 10 yuan, 20 kilograms of food stamps, and a piece of cloth. You can keep these for emergencies to cross the river. If you are really in an emergency, go to the security department of the Red Star Rolling Mill to see me."
Aunt Zuo said nothing and listened quietly. After seeing Du Weiguo finish speaking, she replied: "I have written it all down. Don't worry, I have everything figured out."
Then Aunt Zuo said in a stern tone: "Xiao Du, Niuniu doesn't have a name yet, please give her a name."
Comrade Xiao Du pondered for a moment: "Well, let's call her Zuo Lan. The day I see Niuniu, I will wear old blue clothes. It doesn't mean I have forgotten the pain."
Aunt Zuo's tears fell immediately. She was particularly afraid that Xiao Du would give Niu Niu a name Du, and she would be a lonely old woman again from now on.
Xiao Du named Niu Niu "Zuo Lan", so Niu Niu would be her granddaughter, and it would be justifiable for her to provide for her in her old age.
"Niuniu, your name will be Zuo Lan from now on, okay?"
"Okay, now that I have a name, no one will dare to call me a bastard!"
Then Niuniu cried again and said, "Brother, you won't come here anymore?"
"Come on, I have to visit my sister Zuo Lan, but I have to work soon and I don't have time to come every day. I'll come see you when I'm on vacation, okay?"
"Okay, brother, let's hook up."
"Okay, Lagou, and ah, Niuniu, you will go to school in a while, are you happy?"
"I'm happy. I'll write to my brother when I learn how to read."
"Hahaha, okay!"
That night, when it was close to closing time, Comrade Xiao Du returned to the courtyard house where he had been away for several days, riding a somewhat wobbly bicycle.
Closing and opening the door every day is the job of the third uncle's family. He lives in two rooms in the front yard, which are closest to the door. He opens and closes the door at 6 am and 9:30 pm every day.
He can be considered a gatekeeper.
"Hey, Mr. Xiao Du, I haven't been back to the courtyard for several days. Is this because I was drinking?"
"Ah, third uncle, I have been helping with work these days. I drank today and came back so late, which caused trouble for you."
"You're welcome, why bother? It's not even close yet!"
"Third uncle, I'm going back to the house first and wash myself off. I'm all sticky."
"Okay, go back quickly."
To be serious, my body was indeed sticky. It was a hot day when building a house in the countryside and the dust was flying. Although my face was washed, the clothes on my body were not in shape.
He has been staying at Yu Huaihai's house for the past few days. He washes his clothes at night and wears them during the day. Fortunately, it is summer and the clothes dry quickly. Even if the white shirt has been worn for several days, it has become a little yellow due to sweat. .
You have to soak it with alkali and baking soda.
As soon as Comrade Xiao Du pushed the cart into the front yard, the third uncle chased him up from behind, walked to Xiao Du and said in a low voice:
"Director Xiao Du, you haven't been in the courtyard these days. There is something you may not know."
"Ah, what's going on? Third uncle."
"Well, something happened to the first master! It was the first master of the Intermediate Courtyard and Qin Huairu who went into the vegetable cellar in the middle of the night. I don't know who reported it!"
The third uncle said with excitement: "I heard that it seemed that they were all suppressed by the factory, but the street and the factory security office also received reports, and this matter suddenly became a big deal."
"Ah? What happened next?"
Xiao Du, a bad guy, perked up as soon as he heard this. The alcohol was gone and his body no longer felt sticky.
"Hey, the Security Department and the Street Office came to our hospital two days ago to investigate. You said that more than 100 pairs of eyes of all the young and old men in the hospital have watched this matter. There is no way to hide it!"
When it comes to this, the third uncle becomes dissatisfied.
