Rebirth of the Age of Wealth

Chapter 170 170 The dream of entering the courtyard

After staying at home for two days, Li Qian's legs were bitten by mosquitoes and were covered in bumps. Liu Jinhui felt extremely distressed.

Seeing Liu Jinhui's resentful eyes and not speaking, Li Weidong could only decide to go back. Not speaking was to save face for Li Weidong, but Li Weidong could not pretend that he could not see anything.

This is my hometown, no matter how bad the environment is, I am used to it and have to endure it. However, Liu Jinhui does not have this obligation. Li Qian seems to have half of the obligation, but he is too young.

Li Weidong felt distressed himself, and in the end he had to quickly return to Qizhou. Although he lived in a down-to-earth place, it was still better than in the countryside.

When he arrived in Qizhou, Li Chengwen started to have troubles and didn't want to live in Li Weidong's courtyard house on Xiangshui Street.

This courtyard house is very particular about who lives in the main room and who lives in the east and west wings. If Li Chengwen and Shen Yueying were to live there, they could only live in the main room, but it was obviously Li Weidong's home, so it was a bit inappropriate.

Moreover, since the parents-in-law and the daughter-in-law live in the same courtyard, there will be some friction and embarrassment. If the conditions do not allow it, that's fine.

Now there are several houses near Li Weidong. Living close to each other is as convenient as a yard, and can avoid many problems.

In later generations, many people with some ability bought two houses in the same community, or even the same unit, with one upstairs and one downstairs. This not only took care of the needs of both parties, but also avoided the embarrassment of collision under the same roof.

Li Weidong had no choice but to let them live in Courtyard No. 3. His original office had been moved and restored to its original state.

On this day, Li Weidong was leaning on the stone lion at the door, smoking, and looking at the eaves in front of him in a daze.

Li Weidong said: "Why didn't this family replace a few broken tiles in the eaves? It will easily leak over time?"

He knew a little about the surrounding neighbors, and knew that a few young people lived in the yard in front of them. The only time they met was to nod and smile, and he didn't even know their last names.

Doubiang glanced at Li Weidong, and then at the eaves opposite. He came here for a walk now if he had nothing to do, and he was very familiar with this area.

Doubiang said: "Brother, this house used to be lived by an old man named Xie. He was a high-ranking official. He fought in the war, and later he was the vice president of Handong University. When he was there, the house was pretty good, and people came over often.

Repair!”

"However, I got sick and passed away a few years ago. The people who came at that time blocked this road tightly. The scenery was amazing. If I die in such a scene, my life will be considered to be in vain!"

Li Weidong patted him and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? You are already thinking about the sorrow and glory after death when you are young, so hurry up and continue talking!"

Not only was Doubian not annoyed, he was also very happy, and continued: "Not long after the old man passed away, his son became a leader of the Machinery Bureau!"

"Not long after, I was assigned a large house. It was said to be a three-bedroom house. The key building was close to my work, so I moved there. The house was rented out, and the repairs were not so active!" Doubian finally said.

The sour smell of envy can be smelled a mile away, but Li Weidong is also envious, this is his background!

Li Weidong doubted the origin of this house with 90% certainty. He had fought in the war and later changed his job. This house was definitely not his own. It could only have been obtained from the local government. As for the work unit, he had obtained it himself.

It’s hard to say.

I don’t know if there is a real estate deed. If there is a real estate deed, it won’t be easy for anyone to come.

Li Weidong was stunned and said, "Rented out?"

It's right to think about it. The few young people living in this house are about the same age. They must be renting the house together. How can a normal family have such a demographic structure?

This courtyard is just a small courtyard. The houses in the front are all narrow, and the area is half the size of Li Weidong's house. Living in it is naturally not as comfortable as a three-bedroom house, so renting it out is reasonable.

Moreover, if this house is rented out and the lessor is the old man's son, it means that this house is not public property, but must be private property. If it is private property, can it be bought?

Li Weidong thought about it, took out his cigarette case, gave him a bean cake, put one in his mouth, and quickly lit the bean cake.

Cigarettes costing RMB 35, imported cigarettes, one cigarette can cover half of his living expenses. The key is that Li Weidong gave it to him.

Li Weidong is an old smoker, and he is not used to smoking this cigarette. It is not good to waste the cigarette given by others.

In my previous life, when I had no money, I smoked Daqianmen. Later, when I had a little bit of money, I smoked General Taishan. Later, I smoked Yuxi Furong King and the like. As for the high-end Huazi, Panda also smoked, and it was all about face.

Li Weidong took a puff, blew out the smoke ring, and said, "Can this house be sold? Will it be sold?"

Doubian was a little stupid. He didn't know whether he would sell it or not. The other party was the leader of the Machinery Bureau. He usually couldn't talk to him. If he wasn't a neighbor, they probably wouldn't pay attention to him.

Li Weidong looked at Doubiang and knew that asking was in vain, so he said: "Forget it, I'll find someone to ask again!"

Doubiang quickly said: "Brother, don't worry, I will give you an accurate letter within two days!"

Li Weidong saw that Doubian was full of confidence and admired it very much. Nowadays, Chinese people just lack self-confidence and dare not speak confidently. He needs such people.

Li Weidong said: "Go and inquire to see if he has any idea of ​​selling it. Money is not an issue! Also, you are going to the Housing Authority and the Cultural Department to inquire. What are the procedures for connecting these two houses together?"

Li Weidong felt that if he could buy the house in the front yard, deal with the doorway, and connect it to the front yard, there would be two yards, and naturally there would be no problem with the main house.

If we had to calculate it hard, the yard at the back could only be regarded as the backyard. In ancient times, it was only used by children.

Doubi was very excited. He felt that this was a great task. The eldest brother had assigned the task to the younger brother, and naturally he planned to cultivate the younger brother. Isn’t that how Dachun got up?

Doubiang said excitedly: "Brother, don't worry, I will definitely take care of this matter!" After saying that, he ran away without waiting for Li Weidong to speak.

Li Weidong looked at it and shook his head. The child is just a child, where did so many exciting things come from?

However, the more Li Weidong thought about this matter, the more reliable it seemed to him. If he bought the front yard again, the inverted house at the entrance, with the door opening to the south, would be the first to enter the yard, and the front would be the fourth yard.

Although this is definitely not as spectacular as entering the courtyard, it is still the fourth courtyard and a high-class family.

As soon as Doubian left, he saw Shen Yueying and a middle-aged woman in her forties returning with a vegetable basket. This was the nanny hired by Li Weidong to buy vegetables and cook.

At first, Shen Yueying would follow her whenever she wanted to buy groceries, for fear that others would steal her son's money. However, after only two days together, things started to change. They became like sisters.

Li Weidong originally called someone eldest sister, but now Shen Yueying calls someone eldest sister, which is not fishy or fishy.

Li Weidong greeted: "Sister Yan, you are back. What vegetables did you buy today?"

Shen Yueying didn't wait for Sister Yan to speak and said: "I bought tender lotus roots and some meat. Li Qianniang wants to eat fried lotus roots!"

Li Weidong disagreed and said: "Can't this young lotus root be eaten cold? Why are the lotus roots fried?"

Shen Yueying had just arrived in Qizhou, and her relationship with Liu Jinhui had begun to improve again. Although it was her son's home, she knew in her heart that the child would no longer be hers after he got married, so she felt a little dependent on someone else.

Shen Yueying said: "How can you eat cold food? If you eat cold food and the child is breastfeeding, you won't have diarrhea!"

Li Weidong heard the phone ringing in the room. A few seconds later, Liu Jinhui shouted: "Li Weidong, I'm looking for you!"

He put out the cigarette butt and threw it into the trash can at the door. He went into the house and picked up the phone and said, "Who is this?"
