When Aunt Wang heard that Bai Guoguo wanted to build a house next to hers, she slapped her thigh in joy!
"Oh, that's great! This way, we can visit each other more often. Oh my, that's great! Your sister-in-law will definitely be very happy to hear it!"
Aunt Wang thought that there was someone else who would be even happier, but there was no need to say that.
"I moved here because I wanted to be neighbors with you. Living next door to yours, I won't have to worry about others bullying me. But I wonder if your family agrees?"
Bai Guoguo spoke frankly about her thoughts. She built a house here just to seek some protection from the He family.
"Then what else is there to say? They will definitely agree. Last time you delivered medicine and saved Little Tiger, our whole family is grateful to you. We can't say enough about welcoming you. I'll tell them later, so you can move in without worry!"
Aunt Wang happily took Bai Guoguo's little hand and clapped it.
The men in her family never care about these little things. As for her mother-in-law, if she knew that her grandson's sweetheart moved in next door, she would only be happy!
There’s an old saying that goes, “Those who are close to water get the moon first.” This is all good news!
Her youngest son has been injured and discharged from the army for more than two years. In a few months, he will be 26 years old, and he doesn't even have a partner.
She and her mother-in-law were not anxious, but their previous blind dates had all been ruined by that brat.
He had a dark face and scared the two girls to tears. People said that his son had high standards and looked down on rural girls. Even matchmakers didn't come to their house.
Some time ago, she noticed that her son was interested in this girl.
She eagerly arranged for the girl to live with her so that she and her daughter-in-law could take care of her. Her mother-in-law also knew about this.
When has that guy ever been so attentive to a little girl? He must have been eyeing her as soon as she arrived.
This is great, the meat has fallen into his mouth. That kid will be so happy when he comes back in a few days.
If these two children can succeed, their family will be happy, so why would they push them away?
"Well, thank you, Auntie. You keep busy. I'll go find the team leader to approve the housing plot. We'll build it soon and move in soon!"
Bai Guoguo was very happy to know that the He family was willing to move in by herself. Living here would mean less trouble.
It is more convenient to go up the mountain and down the river to catch fish and shrimps, and to hunt in the mountains.
The most important thing is that you can eat whatever you want!
According to the wind direction here, she lived closest to the foot of the mountain, so the cooking smell could not drift away, and even the He family could not smell it.
"Why are you in such a hurry? Just wait. I'll take you to find Gangzi's uncle. We can go together so we can talk."
Aunt Wang stood up hurriedly and added another bucket of water to the pot, stirred it with a spatula, and removed a few pieces of firewood so that there would be no worry about the pot being dry.
"Let's go. Auntie will go with you. Little Tiger, you take care of the house. If your grandfather and the others come back, tell them I'll be back soon."
Aunt Wang took Bai Guoguo out of the door and locked the gate again.
Their house has a strong gate and high walls, so there is no need to worry about leaving the child at home for a while.
Bai Guoguo thought that in the future, the wall of his own house should be as high as this one, and he could also put some glass pieces on the wall so that he wouldn't be afraid of scoundrels and wild beasts.
As for glass, you can buy a box of soda at the commune. You can buy soda without a ticket anyway.
Bai Guoguo followed Aunt Wang and soon arrived at the brigade office.
I found that the threshing ground, which was usually empty, was now filled with many elderly people. They gathered in groups of three or four to sort mountain products.
I guess he is busy preparing the goods for the order from Harbin that she brought in.
He Gang's uncle, Captain He, was writing down numbers in this small notebook. He turned around and saw the younger brother and sister-in-law and Bai Guoguo coming towards him.
"Sister-in-law, Xiaobai Zhiqing, why are you here?"
The sun was still a little hot at noon in spring, so Uncle He took off his straw hat and fanned himself.
"Brother, we have something to tell you, are you free now?"
"What's the matter? Tell me!"
Captain He has been very busy these past two days. Several families in the team came to him to argue about who should go to the city to work as a worker.
We also have to keep an eye on the output of the brick kiln, otherwise there might not be enough coal from the coal mines. Now we also have to keep an eye on the supply and marketing cooperatives in Harbin.
However, the cadres in the busy team are eager to have such a thing. After all, they have to thank this young educated youth in front of them!
"Uncle Captain, this is my business. I want to build a house and move out of the educated youth compound."
Bai Guoguo then repeated the reasons why she wanted to move out of the compound.
"Captain, I don't want to live there anymore. Those trivial matters will only distract me. It would be great if I could visit two more units with that time. I can also make more contributions to our team!"
"This Wang Zhiqing is really going too far. He's not serious about his work, and he still has the nerve to gossip?"
Uncle He put his hands on his hips in anger.
"Brother, please grant Xiaobai the educated youth a piece of land next to our house. When he lives next to us, it will be convenient for us to visit."
Aunt Wang started beating the drum nearby.
"Since Xiaobai, the educated youth, has made up his mind to move out, it's not impossible to grant him a piece of land. After all, your household registration has been transferred to our brigade, so it's in accordance with the rules to grant you a piece of residential land. However, the land foundation will cost money, otherwise it will be difficult to explain to the team members."
Captain He pondered for a while and finally agreed, but explained that the homestead would cost money.
