Siheyuan: A Beautiful Life

The next morning, when Wu Aiguo woke up from his sleep, he heard his two sisters chatting happily in the room.

Wu Aiguo looked at his two sisters, saw their happy expressions, and asked curiously: "Lily! Fangfang! Did you two find money early in the morning? Why are you so happy?"

When the two little girls heard what Wu Aiguo said, Wu Aifang said to Wu Aiguo happily: "Second brother! We have this bathroom in our house, it is so convenient!"

"My eldest sister and I got up in the morning and went to the bathroom. We didn't have to wait in line, and we didn't have to smell the disgusting stench in public toilets."

When Wu Aiguo heard what his little sister said, he thought about the bathing problem. He smiled and said to the two little girls: "Lily! Fangfang! When the second brother buys the oil drum, you can take a bath at home every day."

When Wu Aili heard what Wu Aiguo said, she confirmed to Wu Aiguo with a look of surprise: "Brother! Is what you said true? Can we really take a bath at our own home in the future?"

When Wu Aiguo heard his eldest sister's question, he reached out and rubbed Wu Aili's little head, and replied with a smile: "Lily! When did the second brother lie to you?"

When Wu Aili heard Wu Aiguo's answer, she thought that it wouldn't be long before she would be able to take a bath every day. An expression of longing immediately appeared on Wu Aili's face.

After breakfast, Wu Aiguo rode his bicycle to the trust store to see if there were any furniture made of rosewood and huanghuali.

More than half an hour later, Wu Aiguo finally arrived at the trust store. He looked at the people who came to buy and consign things in the store, walked up to a teller and asked: "Hello, comrade! I want to buy some second-hand goods."

furniture, don’t know which counter to look for?”

When the salesperson saw Wu Aiguo's clothes, he immediately realized that Wu Aiguo was not an ordinary person, and he did not deliberately embarrass Wu Aiguo. He introduced enthusiastically: "Comrade! If you want to buy second-hand furniture, go out from the gate and turn left. There is a special store over there.

A place to store second-hand furniture.”

When Wu Aiguo heard the salesperson's words, he politely thanked him and then walked out of the trust store.

Soon Wu Aiguo came to the warehouse introduced by the salesperson. Wu Aiguo walked into the warehouse and saw that the warehouse was filled with all kinds of old furniture.

Wu Aiguo looked at the various furniture placed in the warehouse, thought of the purpose of his trip, took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, came to the uncle at the door of the warehouse, and politely introduced himself: "Uncle! Hello! I

I want to buy some old furniture from you, and I don’t know if you have any good recommendations.”

When the uncle learned about Wu Aiguo's purpose, he looked at Wu Aiguo meaningfully, as if he wanted to see through Wu Aiguo.

"Young man, when you come to my place, I'm afraid it's not as simple as just buying second-hand furniture, right?"

When Wu Aiguo heard what the old man said, he did not deliberately conceal his purpose of coming. He smiled and nodded, and replied: "Uncle! You guessed it right. I came here mainly to buy some rosewood and yellow rosewood furniture.

.”

"But I'm a layman and don't know how to choose furniture. I can only ask for your help. When the matter is completed, I am willing to give you five kilograms of pork belly as a reward."

When the uncle heard the conditions offered by Wu Aiguo, his eyes immediately brightened, and he quickly confirmed to Wu Aiguo: "Young man! Are you sure you will give me five kilograms of pork belly as a reward?"

Wu Aiguo heard the uncle's inquiry and replied boldly: "Uncle! If you don't believe it, I can go get the pork belly now, and then ask you to help me choose furniture."

When the uncle heard Wu Aiguo's promise, he smiled and praised Wu Aiguo: "Young man! You are worthy of being a gentleman in Kyoto. Just say this to you, I will definitely help you choose some satisfactory furniture today."

Wu Aiguo, led by his uncle, came to a small warehouse inside. When he saw that the warehouse was filled with all kinds of period furniture, he felt extremely happy.

After settling the bill and waiting for the moving master to load all the furniture onto the cart, Wu Aiguo stuffed the meat that had been packed in oil paper into the uncle's arms, and said to the uncle with a smile: "Uncle Deng! Then let's do that

Let’s go back first.”

Since today is a rest day, all the residents in the courtyard did not go to work. Especially after the news that the Wu family was going to treat the whole courtyard to a dinner in the evening spread, the residents in the courtyard did not even go to visit relatives.

Waiting for the evening banquet in the courtyard.

Wu Aiguo came back with a cart of furniture, which soon caused a huge sensation in the courtyard. The third uncle Yan Bugui saw the old furniture on the cart and curiously asked Wu Aiguo: "Aiguo! Why do you think so?"

What about buying these old furniture?”

Wu Aiguo heard Yan Bugui's words and replied with a smile: "Third uncle! My house has been repaired, but it is missing some furniture, so I went to the trust store early in the morning and bought some second-hand furniture."

"Jiecheng! Liberation! You two come out quickly and help Aiguo move the furniture." Yan Bugui heard the situation introduced by Wu Aiguo and quickly shouted into his house.

Wu Aiguo had just returned from joining the army and became a state cadre. Therefore, in the eyes of the Yan family brothers, Wu Aiguo was the most promising young man in the hospital.

When the two brothers heard Yan Bugui's shout, they ran out of the house and helped Wu Aiguo move the furniture.

"Uncle Patriot! I'm here to help you too!" Bangge, who was playing in the middle yard, heard the noise coming from the front yard and immediately ran out of the middle yard and tried to help Wu Aiguo move the furniture.

There is strength in numbers. With the help of everyone, all the furniture Wu Aiguo bought from the trust store was placed in the house, making the originally empty house finally feel like home.

Wu Aiguo first settled the bill with the porter, then took out a bag of White Rabbit milk candies from the room, smiled and said to everyone who came to help: "It's done! Thank you, come! Three White Rabbit milk candies per person.

Candy! You take it and share it with everyone."

Bang Gang, who was sweating profusely, felt his eyes light up immediately when he saw the White Rabbit toffee in Wu Aiguo's hand.

Although Bangge had also eaten White Rabbit toffee, it was already during the Chinese New Year. Bangge took three toffees from Yan Jiecheng's hand and thanked Wu Aiguo happily: "Uncle Patriot! Thank you for your milk."

sugar."

Seeing his mother and two younger sisters wiping the furniture, Wu Aiguo smiled and said to Chen Shuying: "Mom! I'll go out to buy the materials for the evening party, and I'll leave the house to you."

Wu Aiguo pushed his bicycle out of the courtyard. As soon as he rode to the entrance of the alley, he saw Silly Zhu walking towards him, and asked curiously: "Brother Zhuzi! Where are you going to come back?"

When Silly Zhu heard Wu Aiguo's inquiry, he thought of what he had gone to learn about this morning, and said to Wu Aiguo angrily: "Brother Patriot! You really guessed it. Every time I just have to make a deal, that night

Someone went to the woman and said that I like to hit people at every turn and have violent tendencies."
