The crowd dispersed.
Director Wang walked up to Li Aiguo and asked with a warm expression: "Comrade Patriot, look at the wall of our compound."
If the wall collapses, it might hit someone.
Furthermore.
The director of the sub-district office has even found helpers for us, and he is also a seventh-level master fitter in the steel rolling mill.
This face is more glorious.
Of course we have to help.
Li Aiguo turned his attention to Captain Liu of the construction team: "Brother Liu, I have to trouble you about this matter."
"No matter what the trouble is, we are all comrades in the same section, so we should help."
Captain Liu readily agreed.
Although the jobs run by the street are not very profitable.
However, necessary labor costs are still indispensable.
He measured the length of the fence with Director Wang of the subdistrict office and offered a reasonable price.
"Director, the old blue bricks on the fence can still be used, which can save a lot of money."
Director Wang of the sub-district office nodded frequently.
The funds of the sub-district office are also very tight, and every penny saved is worth it.
"If you want to build a fence that is strong, you'd better need some cement. The bonding power of lime is far inferior to that of cement."
As soon as these words came out.
Director Wang of the Subdistrict Office couldn't help but turn his attention to Li Aiguo.
Forget about other materials, cement is considered a controlled material.
In the courtyard house, the only one who could get cement was Li Aiguo.
It's not like just asking people for help with empty words.
Director Wang thought for a moment and said with a smile:
"Patriot, your family is renovating a house, and there should be no place to eat at night. It just so happens that Uncle Liu comes back from the south today and comes to our house to get together."

After Jia Zhang was sent home.
Under the persuasion of Qin Huairu and Jia Dongxu, he soon woke up.
Now I was starting to get scared, and I didn’t dare to yell or scold anymore. I took Qin Huairu’s hand and begged:
"Huairu, please help me beg my uncle for mercy later. Don't send me back to Jiajiazhuang. I can't carry it on my shoulders or lift it with my hands. How can I survive back in the countryside?"
"What do you want me to ask for? This matter is decided by the street office, and there is nothing I can do about it.
Besides, I was scolded so badly by you just now that even if you beg me, I won’t be able to do it. "
Qin Huairu said happily.
She figured it out now.
Since there is no way to restore the Jia family's reputation, it is acceptable to take the opportunity to send Jia and Zhang back to their hometown.
If Jia Zhang is not at home, there is no way to bully her.
"Go to the deaf old lady. She has a good relationship with the street office. Ask her to intercede for me." Ms. Jia Zhang was unwilling to give in.
Jia Dongxu sighed and said: "Mom, the deaf old lady has been busy with Sha Zhu's affairs since she was captured. She no longer cares about things in the compound."
"Yes, otherwise Director Wang wouldn't be able to listen to Li Aiguo if there was an old deaf lady here today to help with a few words." Qin Huairu helped.
Seeing that there was no way to plead for mercy, Jia Zhang simply started to show off, went into the back room, and lay down on the bed.
"I'll just lie here and see what they can do to me!"
at this time.
Yi Zhonghai brought Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui to Jia's house.
Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui, the two stewards, were aware of Jia Zhang's generous temper and did not want to get involved in the Jia family's affairs.
Yi Zhonghai claimed that this was a political task assigned by the sub-district office.
If it can't be completed, the three stewards will all have to deal with it.
The two of them reluctantly followed Yi Zhonghai.
When they entered Jia's house, they saw Jia Zhang lying on the bed and moaning. The two of them made up their minds to just act as heads and keep silent to avoid being scolded by Jia Zhang.
Yi Zhonghai saw that his teammates were not taking the initiative to attack.
I had no choice but to move a chair and sit in front of Mrs. Jia Zhang.
"Sister-in-law of the Jia family, this time we were played by that boy Li Aiguo."
"Just pretend and go back to the countryside for a few days. When Director Wang has calmed down and the neighbors don't care, Dongxu and I will take you back."
No matter how much good things he said, Jia Zhang would not agree.
She was afraid that once she returned to the countryside, she would never come back.
Yi Zhonghai had no choice but to use a slightly threatening tone: "Sister-in-law of the Jia family, this is the rule of the street office. Don't think that the street office can't do anything to you just by lying here."
"You also know that we have to get coupons from the subdistrict office every month. Dongxu is the only one in your family who has a food book. If you piss off the subdistrict office and stop Dongxu's coupons, there will be no coupons. , your family will be affected by the northwest wind."
"The sub-district office is related to the steel rolling mill. If you stay in the capital and annoy the sub-district office, the sub-district office will send a message to the steel rolling mill, which will affect Jia Dongxu's work."
These words hit Jia Zhang's weakness.
Mr. Jia Zhang has been lazy all his life. He has not worked since he came to the city. He sits at the door and pretends to be pretentious all day long with his starched shoe soles in his arms.
When Lao Jia was there, she sucked Lao Jia's blood.
Lao Jia died, and she sucked Jia Dongxu's blood.
Before Jia Dongxu got married, he should have made an agreement with her that he must give her three yuan a month for retirement.
This does not include the one dollar spent on painkillers every month.
Later, as my addiction to painkillers worsened, I spent two yuan a month on painkillers.
Just buying painkillers is enough to feed an adult.
Before Sha Zhu was caught, she could still use Qin Huairu to suck some blood from Sha Zhu.
If you want to smoke now, you can only go to the locomotive depot police station.
If Jia Dongxu loses his job, she will really be hungry.
"Then when will you pick me back?" Jia Zhang was a little scared.
Still can't handle you, an old rural woman?
Yi Zhonghai breathed a sigh of relief: "Don't worry, in a month at most, I will report to Director Wang that your ideological reform has been completed, and I will put the donkey cart on to pick you back up."
"Then don't forget it."
Jia Zhang didn't believe what Yi Zhonghai said, but had no choice but to nod and agree.
Yi Zhonghai was afraid that Mr. Jia Zhang would change his mind, so he immediately went to the street office to report the situation to Director Wang.
Director Wang praised Yi Zhonghai for his effective service.
He issued a letter of introduction and directions to Jia Zhang, and asked Yi Zhonghai to quickly send Jia Zhang back to the countryside.
Knowing that nothing could be done, Jia Zhang was afraid that she would never return to the capital, so she hid her years of savings and Lao Jia's subsidy in her inner pocket.
I went to the hospital and bought ten bottles of painkillers and packed a big bag.
Early the next morning.
Jia Dongxu took a day off from the steel rolling mill and planned to send Jia Zhang back in person.
Jiajiazhuang is more than ten miles away from the capital, so it's definitely not possible to rely solely on feet.
Yi Zhonghai borrowed a donkey cart and took it to the entrance of the courtyard.
Many residents gathered around to watch the excitement.
Jia Dongxu and Qin Huairu moved their luggage to the donkey cart, but Jia Zhang changed her mind and lay motionless on the bed.
She is afraid of returning to the countryside.
"Sister-in-law, it's getting late, we should hit the road. When we get to Jiajiazhuang, I have to visit the leaders of the commune to help you clean up your place. If you delay any longer, we won't care about you then."
Under Yi Zhonghai's threat, Mrs. Jia and Zhang got into the donkey cart without much hesitation. Even if there were residents who greeted her, she still had a dead look on her face and remained silent.
"Drive."
Yi Zhonghai, Jia Dongxu, and Qin Huairu got into the donkey cart. The driver waved his whip, and the donkey stuck its buttocks and ran towards Jiajiazhuang.
On the bumpy donkey cart, Jia Zhang looked at the retrograde scenery and felt very aggrieved.
She just cursed a few words and was about to be driven back to her hometown in the countryside. That boy Li Aiguo was too cruel.
The entrance of the courtyard.
The aunt held the stick in her arms and watched the donkey cart leave.
When she saw the donkey cart disappearing at the end of the road, Auntie rubbed Bangge's face affectionately.
"My grandson"
It was already late at night when Yi Zhonghai drove the donkey cart from Jiajiazhuang back to the courtyard.
After working hard all day and spending all his time in the countryside, Yi Zhonghai was very happy.
Ever since Yi Zhonghai knew that he could not have children, he began to look for elderly people in the compound.
Definitely not if you have a father.
I have never seen anyone who is not filial to me, but instead treats me as someone else's son.
A young man without a father.
There are two and a half in the courtyard.
One is Li Aiguo and the other is Jia Dongxu.
Silly Zhu's father ran away, so he can only be regarded as half.
under balance.
Yi Zhonghai chose Jia Dongxu as the main supporter.
Silly column serves as a reserve army.
Now Silly Pillar has entered the fence.
Jia Zhang could only rely on Jia Dongxu.
Jia Dongxu has no father, but an unreliable mother.
Yi Zhonghai wants to support the elderly, not find a mother.
Now Jia Zhang has finally been sent back to the countryside.
It was a good time for him to win over Jia Dongxu.
If you can recognize Bangge as your godson.
The two families became even closer.
After returning home, Yi Zhonghai told Aunt Yi his thoughts.
Aunt Yi agreed in one breath, boiled hot water herself, and helped him wash his feet.
"Old man, you really have to thank Li Aiguo this time."
"Li Aiguo?" Yi Zhonghai was surprised.
"Do you think, if it weren't for Li Aiguo's use of the topic, Jia Zhang could have been sent back to the countryside?"
"If you say that, it's really true."
Yi Zhonghai pondered for a long time. After he figured it out, he felt a little dumbfounded.
Li Aiguo was obviously a thorn in his side and a thorn in his flesh.
Now I have to thank him.
What the hell is this!
Jia Zhang's departure caused quite a stir in the courtyard.
Everyone didn't believe that Jia Zhang, who had lived in the capital for more than ten years, was really sent back to the countryside.
Several families stayed awake until dark just to wait for news.
The residents felt relieved when they saw Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu come back without seeing Jia Zhang.
Xu family in the backyard.
Xu Jixiang is still reviewing what happened today.
As a small projectionist, he was able to become related to the Lou family because he loved studying and researching.
Particularly good at analyzing various relationships and finding opportunities that can be exploited.
Now he wants to pass this skill on to his son Xu Damao.
After some explanations, Xu Damao, a Sanhao student, felt that he had benefited a lot.
At the same time, there is also a doubt.
He raised his hand and asked:
“Dad, this time Jia Zhang was sent back to the countryside.
Except Li Aiguo grabbed her pigtails and used his strength to give her a blow.
The most fundamental reason is that Jia Zhang’s family has a rural household registration.
When Jia Zhang married Lao Jia, they were not yet liberated.
I heard that in the years after the liberation of Beijing, it was easy to move in with registered residence.
Why didn't Jia and Zhang move their household registration to the capital?
"
Xu Jixiang said: "That's because Jia Zhang was greedy. Back then, the street office came to her door to apply for a household registration for her. She was unwilling to change her household registration for the sake of a few acres of fertile farmland in the countryside. As a result, she was dumbfounded later."
He raised his head and looked at Xu Damao: "Da Mao, you must remember not to be greedy in the future."
"Don't worry, I, Damao, will definitely be better than the old." Xu Damao, a three-good student, is very confident.

Two flowers bloom, one on each side.
The other side.
Li Aiguo plans to have dinner at Director Wang's house in the evening.
Seeing the sky gradually darkening.
Li Aiguo took out two things from the box, put them into a canvas bag, and returned to the main room.
Aunt Liu was about to go into the kitchen to cook. Seeing him looking like he was about to go out, she asked, "Aiguo, won't you have dinner at home tonight?"
Li Aiguo: "Director Wang is treating us tonight, and Uncle Liu is back too."
Aunt Liu responded with a smile: "Then go quickly and say hello to Lao Liu for me."
Out of the house.
He Yuyu was playing with Li Aiguo's tandem bicycle with Yan Jiefang from the Yan family.
A tandem bicycle has four wheels, so even a person who cannot ride will not fall down when riding it.
He Yuyu sat in front and held the handle of the car, while Yan Jiefang pushed from behind.
The two of them had a great time.
He Yuyu rode his bicycle and stopped in front of Li Aiguo: "Brother Aiguo, when I work and save money, I will buy a bicycle like this."
Li Aiguo took the car keys and said with a smile: "Girls naturally want to ride 26 bicycles."
He Yuyu pouted: "Who said women are inferior to men!"
Li Aiguo stretched out his hand and rubbed her head: "When you grow to 1.8 meters tall, I will buy you a 28-meter big bar."
He Yuyu pouted: "."
After taking the bicycle, Li Aiguo got on it and was about to leave.
Xu Damao walked through the front yard with cheerful steps carrying an empty basket.
"What are you doing, Brother Damao?" Li Aiguo greeted.
"Hey, nothing's wrong. I just gave eggs to my father-in-law. As you know, my moth is a lady of the family and likes to eat stupid eggs from the countryside."
Do you ladies like to eat stupid eggs?
What is this all about?
Li Aiguo was a little confused.
After chatting with Xu Damao for a few words, he pushed his bicycle out of the courtyard.
Director Wang's family lived in Qianmen Hutong, and Li Aiguo turned several corners before he found the place.
This is a small, detached house.
A plaque with the name "House of Glory" hung on the wooden courtyard door. The golden plaque was particularly dazzling under the sunlight.
Seeing that Li Aiguo had really arrived, Director Wang happily opened the door.
After entering the room, Li Aiguo took out two newspaper bags from the canvas bag and placed them on the table.
"Hey kid, you're so polite when you come to your own home. We can't do this. Take it back quickly." Director Wang pretended to be angry.
Li Aiguo chuckled and opened the newspaper: "Aunt Wang, it's not anything expensive, just some local specialties from the frontier."
Looking at a dry flower and a black stick, Director Wang was a little confused.
The flowers should be snow lotuses or something like that. What are the black sticks?
Li Aiguo whispered a few words in Director Wang's ear.
Director Wang's face suddenly turned red with embarrassment and he hit Li Aiguo: "Aiguo, there's something wrong with your thinking right now. Take this thing back quickly."
"Don't mention it, Uncle Liu and you are only forty years old, so we are still very young. If we work hard, we might have another child." Li Aiguo said with a smile.
Director Wang looked hesitant.
At this time, a man in Chinese tunic suit came out of the back room and said in surprise: "Oh! Patriot, you have really grown into a young man. Before liberation, I went to the office to protect you. Today, you have grown into adults. We are really I’m old,”
His eyes fell on the black stick and he asked in surprise: "What is this?"
Director Wang muttered something in a low voice, then pinched Li Aiguo with a smile and said to her husband: "Old Liu, tell me, is this kid a bad learner?"
Liu Qingshan is a cadre going south.
In 1948, I left my old neighborhood and went to the south to work.
At that time, their only son had died on the battlefield.
Director Wang was heartbroken, his health was not good, and he failed to keep up with the big team, so he stayed in the capital.
The two have also tried to have another child, but have never been able to do so.
Liu Qingshan took a deep look at the black stick.
"Put it away. This is also a sign of patriotism."
"you"
Director Wang felt that his old face was a little feverish.
After living at such an old age and being laughed at by a child, I simply can’t live anymore.
Fortunately, this child is considered his own child.
Director Wang coughed twice, wrapped up the newspaper with a straight face, and took it into the room.
