Rebirth of the Flying Era

Finally, Mr. Wei left the Red Star Hotel with heavy steps.

Lei Laoliu also hurriedly left.

Today he was bitten in the butt - his eyes were opened!

Mr. Wei is definitely a well-known figure among the people he knows.

Today, in front of Du Fei, I was like a noodle, letting Du Fei round it up and flatten it.

Literary and martial arts, underworld and white, they can't stand still for a moment.

In the end, not only was the trip in vain, but two small yellow croakers were left behind. Before leaving, I had to say: "Thank you!"

On the contrary, Du Fei treated Mr. Wei very well.

He has good skills and can bend and stretch.

Du Fei is self-aware. The reason why he can easily crush Mr. Wei on the scene is not because of his ability, but because of the asymmetry of information and the imbalance of power.

On Tuesday, Du Fei went to work as usual.

It’s almost November, and winter has officially entered the capital.

These days, the work of the street office is not as easy as usual.

The winter cabbage is about to be sold, and all the neighborhood committees below are starting to make preparations.

Storing vegetables for winter is related to the next three or four months. Whether people can eat vegetables is the top priority in November.

In addition, it is to ensure that the five-guarantee households in the jurisdiction have food to eat, coal to cook, the house is airtight, and they can see a doctor when they are sick.

Only a few people are left on duty at the sub-district office, and most of them go out to various neighborhood committees to investigate the living conditions of households with five guarantees and families of military martyrs.

Du Fei, Sun Lan, and another male colleague named Wang visited each yard from morning to dark.

Du Fei didn't have time to go back to the courtyard to deliver food at noon, so Lei Laoliu went to the canteen to get the lunch box.

It was still the same the next day...

It wasn't until the afternoon of the third day that I finally sorted out all the shards, and went back to give the record book to Section Chief Qian.

In the past three days, while Du Fei was busy, the decoration of the house was finally completed.

That night, after dinner, Du Fei made a special trip back to the courtyard.

Looking at the house from the outside, except for the dark, eight-panel glass windows, which are somewhat inconsistent with the overall style of the courtyard, it is impossible to tell that this is a newly renovated house.

But once the door is opened, there is a different world inside.

Upon entering, there is a small entrance hall with a shoe cabinet and a shoe-changing bench.

These days few people go home to change their shoes, but Du Fei is still used to wearing more comfortable slippers at home.

Past the entrance is the living room.

All the original hanging sheds were demolished, directly exposing the wooden beam structure of the courtyard. After cleaning, they were painted with wood wax oil, which actually made the living room look higher.

The courtyard where Du Fei lived was of a high quality when built. Not counting the inverted house and the back house, there were three large courtyards, and the main house was built higher. Du Fei's wing room, from the ground to the roof, is five meters at the highest point and four meters at the lowest point.

Lamps were hung from the roof and installed with high-wattage light bulbs, which illuminated the living room brightly. The neatly inlaid gold bricks on the ground shimmered and reflected.

Several pieces of furniture originally left by Du Fei's family were moved back, but they always felt awkward when placed in this room.

Du Fei secretly thought about whether he should take the time to go to the trust store to buy a sofa and place it opposite the fireplace, making it comfortable for sitting and lying down.

To the left of the fireplace, the wall is recessed one meter square with two doors.

Opposite that door, it opens to the kitchen, and to the right is the bathroom.

The kitchen has new cabinets and cupboards, as well as a large terrazzo sink. The stove is a newly built earthen stove and a honeycomb briquette stove.

Although it was not yet popular at this time, machine-made briquettes had already appeared in the capital, but the people did not recognize it yet and felt that burning briquettes was warmer and cheaper.

Go to the bathroom, which is divided into two small rooms. There is a urinal in the outer room, and there is no water tank. There is a large water tank under the tap next to it, with a water ladle hanging on the side. After using the toilet, go to the bathroom. Flush.

In the back is the bathtub with broken porcelain tiles. Regardless of whether it is winter or summer, just turn on the tap water and light the firewood underneath, and you can take a hot bath...

Finally, return to the living room and go up the stairs against the wall to the second floor.

This staircase is very cleverly designed, mainly occupying the space of the bathroom next door. Only a small section of the staircase is exposed to the living room, and then it turns and follows the angle of the sloped roof to the bedroom on the second floor.

The bedroom is above the kitchen and bathroom, but the area is only more than ten square meters. Because of the sloped roofs on both sides, both sides are made into small closets.

The ground is a log-colored floor, and the fire pit is much shorter than the traditional fire pit. It is only over a foot high, but it is nearly three meters wide and two meters deep.

It is worth mentioning that the bedroom is not using incandescent lamps, but white fluorescent lamps found in the grain station warehouse.

Originally there were two sets and about a dozen light tubes, enough to replace them in the living room.

But Du Fei thought about it again and decided not to be too high-profile.

No matter how high the wattage is, an incandescent lamp is still an incandescent lamp. When people come in, please say more, ah! Your home is so bright.

But it's completely different if you replace it with fluorescent lights!

Unfortunately, the kang was now bare, with no mats or bedding. The hole in the kang was still damp, and the fireplace had to be lit for two days to completely dry out the moisture.

Then there's the smell in the house.

Although Du Fei has always emphasized that no paint should be used and less glue should be used, how could a carpenter not use glue at all?

Fortunately, they use leather glue made from pigskin and cowhide. There is no formaldehyde, but it does have a bit of a smell.

The wood wax oil used for brushing also needs to be put away and dried.

Although Lei Laoliu's side was completed in ten days, it would still take a few more days for Du Fei to move back.

After turning off the lights and locking the door, Du Fei pushed his bicycle and walked out while thinking about what furniture to buy.

But at this moment, the door of the Li family next door suddenly opened. Li Guoqiang walked out of the house wearing a cotton coat and said with a smile: "Xiao Du, come sit down at home, and I will tell you something."

Du Fei frowned, thinking that Li Guoqiang still wanted to sell his house to him, so he was not willing to go. He said perfunctorily: "Uncle Li, I have to write a report when I get back. The boss will be in a hurry to get it tomorrow morning!"

Li Guoqiang saw his attitude, but he didn't want to forcefully drag Du Fei home. Seeing that no one was in the courtyard, he simply walked out and said in a low voice: "Xiao Du, I know you are capable. I have something to ask you." Do me a favor."

Du Fei raised his eyebrows and looked at Li Guoqiang, who looked sincere, wondering what his intention was.

Anyway, I definitely won’t buy the house. As for other things, let’s just listen and talk.

Du Fei stood there and said, "Uncle Li, can you tell me something first?"

Li Guoqiang sighed: "Alas, it's your brother Shengli's business..."

Li Guoqiang did things straightforwardly. He simply revealed all the bad things about Li Shengli, but he hid Li Shengli's use of force and said that the two of them were in a relationship, and you and I were willing to do it.

Finally, Li Guoqiang said helplessly: "Xiao Du, our Shengli did not handle this matter properly, but the old Zhang family also went too far! They asked for two hundred yuan for each mouthful, and if they didn't give it, they would sue Shengli for rape. They are driving people to death!"

Du Fei waited quietly for him to finish speaking, then asked: "Uncle Li, what do you mean by looking for me?"
