The girl tiptoed over Wang Weidong's shoulder and glanced into the courtyard.
A look of envy suddenly appeared on his face: "You actually have a faucet in your home. It's really awesome. You are worthy of being the director of a big factory. The treatment is just different. In the compound where Guangfu's family lives, there are more than 20 households. There is only one faucet. If we move here in the future, washing clothes will be a hassle."
The reason why she came to talk to Wang Weidong was because Liu Guangfu told her that a leader lived in the small courtyard outside the courtyard.
girl
Guangfu?
Wang Weidong looked at the little girl again, his eyes instantly lit up.
Isn’t this girl Zhang Guizhen, Liu Guangfu’s daughter-in-law?
In the original work, when Zhang Guizhen appeared, she was already married to Liu Guangfu.
After the two got married, they did not live in the courtyard, but at Liu Guizhen's home.
Later, Liu Guangfu had a conflict with his mother-in-law and wanted to move to the hut built by Liu Haizhong, but Liu Haizhong refused.
Thinking about it, in Liu Haizhong's heart, he only has one son, and that is his eldest son Liu Guangqi.
Liu Guangfu and Liu Guangtian were the punching bags where he practiced fighting.
"Liu Guizhen? Ha, I don't think you can move to the courtyard."
Seeing that Wang Weidong looked strange, the little girl asked doubtfully: "You, do you know me?"
Wang Weidong shook his head and said, "Let's not talk about this for now. Let me ask you, what happened in the courtyard these days?"
Zhang Guizhen felt that she was honored by being asked for information by a factory director, so she recounted everything that had happened in the courtyard recently.
Ever since Si Zhu, Jia Gan and Jia Zhang were imprisoned in the fence, the courtyard has become much quieter.
The only unstable factor is Qin Huairu.
Ever since Qin Huairu became Yi Zhonghai's goddaughter, she felt that she had found support, and her voice in the courtyard became even higher.
In the past, when Qin Huairu was cooking, she only borrowed some vinegar, salt, soy sauce and other odds and ends.
Now she often goes to other people's homes with a vinegar bottle, saying she wants to eat cold noodles, and asking others to give her noodles.
The residents were afraid of Yi Zhonghai's power, and a bowl of noodles was not worth much, so she got her wish every time.
Liu Haizhong quietly counted that Qin Huairu could borrow thirty kilograms of noodles, ten kilograms of rice, and some radish and cabbage from his neighbors in one month.
Also, even little Sophora japonica has reached the age of getting married, and she has a date.
The young man is a nice guy, but his family is a little poor. He wants to be his son-in-law, but Qin Huairu is a little reluctant.
Now I am thinking about finding a partner for Xiao Huaihua.
but.
The residents in the Siheyuan neighborhood are all aware of the dirty things of the Jia family. Who dares to introduce a partner to Xiao Huaihua? That would be harming others!
After Zhang Guizhen said this, she felt that she had some merit. She pinched her waist and stared at Wang Weidong and asked: "Just now, why did you say that I can't live in a courtyard? Guangfu said that he has two rooms in his house. As long as we get married, , Liu Haizhong will give us a house."
The situation of Zhang Guizhen's family is not very good either. They live in a large courtyard in Leather Hutong.
Leather Alley, as the name suggests, is surrounded by leather-making factories.
The ditch in front of the door was dirty, and the air was always filled with the sour smell of fermented leather.
When I woke up early in the morning, I was all dizzy from the smoke.
Zhang Guizhen's wish since childhood was to move out of the leather-making alley, so she fell in love with Liu Guangfu, who was just a small fitter.
....
Wang Weidong finally understood. It turned out that Liu Guangfu had deceived the little girl.
When the raw rice became cooked rice, Liu Guizhen had no choice but to regret it even if she wanted to.
Of course Wang Weidong would not hide this from Liu Guangfu when it was so outrageous.
She smiled and said, "Comrade Guizhen, as the saying goes, a man's mouth is a liar. I suggest you ask more about some things."
"No... you can't! Guangfu has been very kind to me. He often buys me Cuban candies and picks me up after work. He said that his father is the most jealous of him and often treats him to stir-fried pork with bamboo shoots without telling his brother. "Zhang Guizhen's eyes widened suddenly, with a look of disbelief on her face.
Wang Weidong smiled and said: "Then just listen to Liu Guangfu. Okay, I have to go to work. Goodbye!"
Wang Weidong got into the car, Captain Liu stepped on the accelerator, and the car sped away with bluish exhaust gas.
Zhang Guizhen looked at the car disappearing at the end of the street, looking a little confused.
At this time, she already believed Wang Weidong's words.
Just kidding, does a big factory director need to lie to a little girl like her?
With doubts in mind, Zhang Guizhen went to the supply and marketing cooperative at the street corner, bought two taels of toffee, and knocked on Yan Bugui's door.
She had been with Liu Guangfu for some time and knew something about the situation in the courtyard.
Other residents may not tell her the truth out of dignity.
But Yan Bugui is a teacher, and he still likes to take advantage of small things. As long as he accepts her toffee, he will definitely not hide it from her.
Sure enough, when he saw Toffee, Yanbu Guidi's little eyes behind his glasses suddenly lit up.
He rubbed his hands and said, "Daughter-in-law of the Liu family, this is so embarrassing. You haven't married Guangfu yet, but you are so polite to give a gift to me, an elder. You can't accept it. I absolutely can't accept it."
For Yan Bugui, who always smells the smell when the dung truck passes by, how can he push out the toffee he got?
As Yan Bugui spoke, he reached out to grab the toffee.
Zhang Guizhen raised her hand, letting Yan Bugui catch a handful of air.
Holding Toffee in his arms, he glanced sideways at Yan Bugui: "Third uncle, don't worry, I'm here mainly because I want to ask you something."
Zhang Guizhen's expressions and movements meant clearly. If you tell me what happened today, I will give you the toffee. Otherwise, don't even think about eating the toffee.
Yan Bugui nodded hurriedly: "Girl, what do you want to ask? As long as the third uncle knows, he will definitely tell you!"
Zhang Guizhen said: "I want to ask you what is going on with the Liu family. You are the third uncle of the courtyard, so you must know."
"Ah?! This is what happened!" Yan Bugui was stunned for a moment.
The affairs of the Liu family were a well-known matter in the compound.
But just a few days ago, Liu Guangfu went from house to house and told them not to talk about his family's affairs to outsiders.
Who are the outsiders?
It’s obviously Zhang Guizhen!
Zhang Guizhen saw some clues from Yan Bugui's face, widened her eyes and said: "If you don't tell me, I will tell you, I will take the toffee away.
I just bought this toffee for two yuan and two cents at the supply and marketing cooperative.
My brother also likes to eat it! "
Yan Bugui also became anxious when he heard that Zhang Guizhen was going to take away the toffee.
Besides, when Liu Guangfu first explained the matter, he didn't even give him a peanut.
As the third uncle of the courtyard, he didn't have to worry about Liu Haizhong, the second uncle, let alone Liu Guangfu, a stupid boy.
Yan Bugui hurriedly walked over and stopped Zhang Guizhen with his hand: "Hey, hey, miss, what are you in a hurry for? It's not that the third uncle doesn't want to tell you, but it's just that he's embarrassed! How about you add a little more?"
"A little more?" Zhang Guizhen heard Liu Guangfu say before that Yan Bugui was a shrewd calculationr. She didn't believe it at first. An old teacher has to have some dignity, right?
Today is an eye-opener.
She waved her hand and said, "It's just a little bit of toffee. If you don't want to, then don't say anything."
"Okay, okay, who am I to be kind? As an engineer of the soul, I can't just watch a good girl like you walk into a pit of fire!" Yan Bugui could only compromise, turned around and walked to the door. Take a look, then carefully close the door, walk to Zhang Guizhen, and whisper: "Let me tell you, Liu Guangfu told everyone in the compound two days ago that we should hide it from you.
In fact, in Liu Haizhong's family, Liu Haizhong only likes his eldest son Liu Guangqi and doesn't like Liu Guangfu.
and his younger brother Liu Guangtian.
Liu Guangfu is not taken seriously at all. He has been Liu Haizhong's punching bag since he was a child.
This is something everyone knows. "
After saying that, Yan Bugui was a little worried and asked: "By the way, girl, what are you asking about?"
"Nothing! Here, the toffee is yours."
True to her word, Zhang Guizhen threw the toffee into Yan Bugui's arms, opened the door and rushed into the cold wind.
She now completely believed what Director Liu said.
Her dream of moving out of Leather Alley was shattered. She hated Liu Guangfu.
.......
Liu Haizhong's house in the courtyard.
Liu Guangfu is getting married soon, and Liu Haizhong is finally in a better mood.
At noon, I asked my second aunt to fry a plate of spicy and sour sausages, a plate of peanuts, and a large pot of noodle soup.
Taking out a bottle of Laofen wine, Liu Haizhong took out a wine cup from the cupboard and poured Liu Guangfu a glass of wine.
"Come on, Guangfu, drink!"
Liu Guangfu was so flattered that he quickly picked up the wine cup and drank it all in one gulp.
With the spicy wine in his stomach, Liu Guangfu seemed to be a lot bolder. He pointed at the spicy and sour sausages and peanuts on the table and said, "Dad, can I eat vegetables?"
"Chichi, you did a good job. Not only did you get married without spending a penny on the bride price, but you also went to the woman's house to occupy a room. Dad should reward you." Liu Haizhong poured himself a glass of wine and picked it up. He drank the wine cup in one gulp. Although he was good at wine, he didn't drink much. After a glass of wine, his plump face and nose suddenly turned red.
Both drinking and eating, Liu Guangfu has never been treated so well since he was a child.
He took a sip of wine and ate a bite of food, and his excited look made Liu Guangtian envious of him who was sitting beside him and nibbling on the dough.
Liu Guangtian looked at the wine bottle, swallowed his saliva, and said, "Dad, I want to drink too."
Liu Haizhong put down the wine cup and looked at Liu Guangtian with a gloomy expression: "Drink whatever you want. What qualifications do you have to drink? If you can find a wife for free like your brother, I will let you drink."
"I don't care, why can I drink wine and eat meat, but I can only eat cornstarch!"
Liu Guangtian was already a little dissatisfied because of this matter, so when he heard this, he threw Kuaizi heavily on the table.
This time Liu Haizhong was annoyed. He stood up and stretched out his big hand.
The second aunt said, "You naughty kid, how could you talk to your father like this?", then handed out a pair of fire pliers and handed it to Liu Haizhong's hand.
Liu Haizhong walked to the corner with a pair of pokers in hand, pointed at Liu Guangtian and said, "You little bastard, are you going to let me grab you here, or are you going to come here on your own?"
Liu Guangtian glanced at Liu Guangfu helplessly, smiled bitterly at him, stood up from the chair and walked to the corner.
He took the initiative to take off his pants and stick out his butt.
The pants are too expensive, and if they are stained with red paint, it will be troublesome if they cannot be washed off.
"Crack! Crack! Crack!"
It has to be said that Comrade Liu Haizhong, as a seventh-level blacksmith, has wielded a sledgehammer all year round and has developed a lot of strength.
He used a pair of fire pliers to make the fire burn, and soon, flowers bloomed on Liu Guangtian's buttocks.
After making sure that Liu Guangtian had learned his lesson and vented the anger in Liu Haizhong's stomach, he stopped and said, "Go back to the room."
Liu Haizhong was not full to begin with, but after all this work, he was hungry again.
Just when he was about to go to the table to eat something, he saw that there was only one dish left on the table, and the corners of Liu Guangfu's mouth were shiny.
When Liu Guangfu came into contact with the death gaze in his bangs, he shivered with fright. He took out the unchewed sausage from his mouth and handed it over: "Dad, you eat it!"
Liu Haizhong's eyes fell on the lake-shaped object. His face was so dark that he could drip ink. He gripped the tongs tightly and pointed to the corner.
"Liu Guangfu, it's your turn!"
Liu Guangfu's mood was very different from Liu Guangtian's.
It's become routine for him.
Moreover, this time he was well fed.
This beating was worth it!
.....
After meal.
The two brothers lay on the bed and applied iodine to each other.
Liu Guangtian patted Liu Guangfu's buttocks, which had been beaten many times, and asked doubtfully: "Brother, what method did you use to get rid of your sister-in-law?"
This is Liu Guangfu's biggest doubt.
To be honest, in terms of appearance, Liu Guangtian is much more handsome than Liu Guangfu. He is 1.7 meters tall and has a well-proportioned figure.
Like Liu Guangfu, he is a fitter. On weekdays in the workshop, he is very popular with the little girls and old ladies, and occasionally he can get some advantage.
He had also been with a few strong men, but whenever he was about to discuss marriage, the other party inquired about his family's family situation and broke up with him the next day.
Liu Guangfu can also understand.
After all, Liu Haizhong had long said that everything in the family would be left to his eldest brother Liu Guangqi.
Love is not about poetry and distance, but more about tea, rice, oil and salt.
Those sharp fruits also need to eat. How can they live with a man who has nothing?
Liu Guangfu grinned and glared at him: "Be gentle! I'll kill you!"
Although Liu Guangfu spoke harshly, he felt a little sorry for Liu Guangtian in his heart.
There was no way, the two of them had been beaten together since childhood and had developed a strong friendship for a long time.
He waved to Liu Guangtian and said, "I have told the people in the yard not to reveal our family's affairs. Then, prepare to capture Zhang Guizhen before the engagement. By then, even if Zhang Guizhen's family knows the truth, his daughter How can I marry someone else after I ruined my body?
As long as I get married, I will say that I have no place to live. How can my father-in-law not care about me? "
Liu Guangtian's eyes froze when he heard this: "That's awesome, my brother, you are just trying to force yourself to eat soft food!"
"Learn a little bit, kid." Liu Guangfu twitched the corner of his mouth and smiled proudly: "The two of us have such a miserable life. If we don't find a way, we will never be able to get married."
