Chapter 435



Chapter 435

Su Yi chatted with Li Yue Niang for a long time before taking out a bunch of keys from his pocket and handing them over to her.

"This is the house you asked me to find."

"It's in Liuhuai Lane, number 21, the next one up the hill. I thought Changzhi and Changqing would be closer, so it would be easier for you to move around."

Li Yue Niang's eyes lit up and her expression immediately relaxed.

"You've done it so quickly? It's rare that you're so thoughtful."

Su Yi looked at Li Yue Niang's expression and felt relieved.

"I didn't do the task you asked me to do with all my heart that time."

As he spoke, he dug into his pocket and took out two pieces of paper and handed them to Li Yueniang, "The name is written Changzhi."

"I don't have much money on hand right now. This hundred yuan and some tickets are worth a lot. You can buy them some things and move in first."

"I guess Changqing will be back soon. By then, your yard will be too full to accommodate him. The two brothers have finally been reunited. We can't let any problems affect their relationship because of the crowded living situation."

"Well, about the medicine, you should take care of it first. I'll send it to you when I get the money later."

Li Yue Niang pursed her lips and looked at Su Yi with a complicated expression, "This house is not cheap, right? Where did you get so much money?"

Su Yi straightened his back instantly, "Don't worry about the money, I, I have my own way."

Li Yue Niang gave him a rare friendly look. "Look at your droopy eyes. You haven't slept well in a few days, have you? Take care of yourself. You still have to support the children."

"If something happens to you, what will you do with all those kids down there?"

Su Yi's eyes lit up, just like a child who had done something wrong and was feeling uneasy and ready to be punished by his mother, but was suddenly praised.

"I know, don't worry, I understand."

Li Yue Niang put the house deed, key and banknotes into her pocket and said, "Okay, if there's nothing else, I'll go downstairs. You can go ahead and do your work."

"Hey, hey, hey, sister." Su Yi grabbed Li Yue Niang's sleeve.

"Well, when can I go see the kids? I mean meet them in person, not secretly."

"Hey, wait a minute. I'll see what happens and find a chance to talk to Changzhi."

"Okay, okay, you talk to him first."

Li Yue Niang got out of the car and prepared to wait for Liao Fengmei at the door.

Xiao Liu got out of the driver's seat and said, "Sister Li, let me give you a ride."

Li Yueniang glanced at him sideways, "What's the matter? Are you here to speak well of your commander?"

Xiao Liu smiled and said, "Sister Li, I wasn't sent by the division commander. I really care about the division commander. You don't know that in order to buy this house, the division commander sold his samurai sword to Political Commissar Xu."

Li Yue Niang was stunned. "What about the R-country samurai sword that he brought back from the battlefield and kept hidden like a treasure for decades?"

"right."

"Isn't he at odds with Old Xu? Why did you sell it to him?"

"Political Commissar Xu offered the highest amount of money, but it was Commander Su who came to the door eagerly, knife in hand."

"I've looked a lot more haggard lately, and I have no appetite..."

Li Yue Niang paused, "What do you want to say?"

Xiao Liu met Li Yueniang's eyes and said weakly, "Sister, please be nicer to Commander Su."

Li Yue Niang said angrily, "I'm already this old, can I still serve him?"

"Hurry back, my wife is coming out. If you don't leave, I'll go beat up your commander again!"

Liao Fengmei ran out excitedly with her arms full of things.

"Mother, mother."

Li Yue Niang knew that the matter was done when she looked at the work clothes in her arms.

"Let's go home."

"Why."

"Mom, look, I got a set of clothes, a towel, a hat, shoes, and gloves, too."

"The comrades there are very welcoming and asked me to come over early tomorrow morning to get familiar with the colleagues there first."

Liao Fengmei, who usually doesn't talk much, had a dark face that was now stained with two shades of red, and even her eyes, which had lost their luster due to life, were now shining.

She has a job, and it's a formal job!

Song Jingzhou's vacation is over. After Su Qingci's persuasion, he returned to the team yesterday. Today is the day agreed to check in.

Su Qingci felt that it would be much more convenient for her if Song Jingzhou was not around.

When she decorates her home, she can take many things directly from the farm.

When we arrived at the entrance of Jiaxi Hutong, Dachang was already waiting there.

"Sister, you're here?"

Su Qingci parked her bicycle by sliding it along the ground. "Have you finished moving everything inside?"

"The move is almost done, sister. Go take a look. Mr. Zhang has some things that are hard to move. He wants to ask if you want them. If you want them, he'll give them to you at a lower price. If not, he'll find someone to sell them to."

"What are the things? Let's go and take a look first."

Zhang Yanxu saw Su Qingci coming in, clapped his hands and walked over, "Comrade Su, you're here."

"Comrade Su, many of the things we have here are difficult to move. See if you want them. If you do, I'll give them to you so you don't have to buy them. I'm too lazy to move them anymore."

Su Qingci followed Zhang Yanxu and looked around. There were several large water tanks in the courtyard, as well as jars of various sizes in the kitchen. There were still a lot of coal cakes left in the coal shed, and some large cabinets that could not be moved.

"Uncle Zhang, these coal cakes should be exchanged for coal coupons, right? You don't want them anymore?"

Zhang Yanxu shook his head. "You know, I sold this house to divide the family property among my four sons. Whether they rented or bought, the land wasn't this big. Now the eldest and third sons have moved into the tube-shaped building, and the space is small. We used to have a large family, so we stockpiled a lot of coal, but now they've all taken a lot away. These are what's left."

"We can't move those big things either. There's not enough space to put them in."

Zhang Yanxu patted the wardrobe reluctantly. "This was built for my eldest brother's wedding. It was made of the finest camphor wood, and there's also this big table. When we built it, we thought there were so many people in the family, so we made it as big as possible, so that it could seat more than a dozen people. What a shame."

"If you don't want it, I can only find someone to drag it to the recycling station. The baby has grown up and has his own thoughts. Sigh~"

Su Qingci followed Zhang Yanxu and walked around. There were solid wood cool chairs, armchairs, a large dining table with twelve chairs, three large wardrobes, several footstools, and low stools. In the yard, there were large white porcelain vats for growing water plants, large water storage tanks, fifty or sixty kilograms of coal briquettes, and some small items that could be used in daily life.

"Uncle Zhang, it's really a waste to take these things to the recycling station. I'll keep them and use them. How much do you want to sell them for?"

After listening to Su Qingci's answer, the sadness on Zhang Yanxu's face dissipated a little.

"It's up to you to decide how much to give me." Zhang Yanxu smiled awkwardly. "Don't worry if you laugh at me. The night the house was sold, my four unfilial sons divided the money and didn't leave any for us two old people. Otherwise, based on our fate, I would have given it to you."
