I'll try to accuse you of disturbing the public.
Huo Chengfeng came back on the morning of the 27th. He had an untidy beard, but his eyes were very bright and he seemed to be in good spirits.
He came back sooner than Shi Mingzhu expected. He told Shi Mingzhu that he had to leave overnight.
She smiled widely, "Okay, I've packed everything, you can take a nap first to replenish your energy."
Huo Chengfeng nodded and went to sleep first. It was two o'clock in the afternoon when they woke up. The whole family, including Ji Shaoyuan, had a meal together, checked out of the rented house, and drove away from Xitai Town.
This second time we didn't have much luggage, so the car was quite spacious.
Yangyang was held by Shi Mingzhu the whole time because her mother-in-law Yu Meizhen suffered from motion sickness. She vomited as soon as the car left Xitai Town, and then slept for part of the way and vomited for part of the way.
As for Huo Chengfeng, he wanted to drive, but Shi Mingzhu didn't want to make him so tired, so she refused him without any explanation.
After driving for nearly 6 hours, we finally arrived in Pengcheng around 8 o'clock in the evening.
Pengcheng is also very lively at night, and the social scene is very vibrant. Here, people's clothing has bid farewell to black, gray and blue, and is now colorful. Most people on the street dress in a very individual way.
There are also many street vendors, and their business is pretty good.
Huo Chengfeng stopped the car and bought some food to fill his stomach later.
The air was filled with laughter, and Shi Mingzhu felt so excited that she wanted to set up a stall immediately.
But they have to find a place to stay first.
Pengcheng includes Liuchai District and Xuping County. Fenghuang Police Station is located in Taojin Town, Xuping County, only 3 kilometers away from Liuchai District, the center of the Special Economic Zone.
It is a small town with more than 800 outsiders living in it. Currently, the outsiders are still pouring in, mostly vendors, while there are only more than 1,500 local people in Taojin Town.
Huo Chengfeng arrived in Pengcheng on the 21st. The first thing he did when he arrived here was to ask Ji Shaoyuan to take him to rent a house.
"Ji Shaoyuan, thank you so much for this time. Come to my house tomorrow and we'll have dinner together." Shi Mingzhu thanked Ji Shaoyuan and made an appointment to have dinner the next day. She would take a day off before considering anything else.
"Okay." Ji Shaoyuan didn't refuse. He didn't stay for long and left first.
Shi Mingzhu was quite satisfied with the house rented by Huo Chengfeng. Not only was it close to the street, but it was also very large. It was a two-story brick building with a balcony on the second floor, a yard in the backyard, and a well. This was something she had not expected.
Although it is a dilapidated old house, it is generally quite good.
"How did you convince others to rent this house for you? It must have cost a lot of money, right?"
"It's OK, 5 yuan a month. Ji Shaoyuan knows the landlord, and he helped to speak up for him, so the original 8 yuan was reduced to 5 yuan." Huo Chengfeng could still afford it, but he also had to actively generate income. "The landlord's family also had a house in Liuchai District, and they all moved to the Special Zone. The old house is empty and they rent it out."
No wonder. The owner of this house seems to be quite well-off. The monthly rent for a house in Xitai Town is 1.5 yuan, which is actually acceptable for a two-story building at 5 yuan.
Yu Meizhen was surprised to hear that the rent was 5 yuan. "5 yuan? That's a steal! How about changing to another house? It's too painful to spend 5 yuan every month without eating or drinking."
Huo Chengfeng shook his head. If he could rent a big house, he must rent a big house. The rent would only get more and more expensive in the future. "A big house has its advantages. How could a small house accommodate three or four people? Besides, Mingzhu has to run a business, so she has to have space to show her talents."
Shi Mingzhu nodded and glanced at her mother-in-law, "Mom, just tell me whether your son is smart or not?"
Yu Meizhen nodded without hesitation, believing that her son must be smart.
"Then listen to him."
Yu Meizhen was about to say something but stopped herself. Why did she feel that Shi Mingzhu was indirectly saying that she was stupid?
She looked at her daughter-in-law.
Shi Mingzhu pretended not to see her gaze and asked the man again, "Is your workplace close to here? Do you have a dormitory?"
Huo Chengfeng nodded. "The dormitory can only accommodate one person. It's on the same street as this house, and it's a 10-minute walk."
That's still okay. Shi Mingzhu nodded.
Shi Mingzhu walked around the house and chose a room with windows on the second floor, leaving the first floor for her mother-in-law.
Huo Chengfeng opened his mouth to say something, but seeing Shi Mingzhu's excited expression, he didn't speak. He just walked silently to the window and the wall, patting the wall and measuring the dimensions.
"What are you doing?" The knocking and banging sounds made Shi Mingzhu feel annoyed.
"Look at the thickness of the wall." He patted the wall and felt that it was a bit thin. Besides, there was a window and it was on the second floor, so the sound might leak out.
"The sound insulation... shouldn't be that good." He scratched his head and looked at Shi Mingzhu, "It's only 15 centimeters, which is about the same thickness as the walls of the rental houses in Xitai Town."
The latter didn't understand at first, so he walked over and looked at the thickness of the wall. Isn't 15 centimeters thick enough?
"The walls are too thin to be safe? How thick should they be?"
It can be considered unsafe, Huo Chengfeng thought, "20 centimeters is enough, it can be soundproof, and the sound can't be transmitted."
Shi Mingzhu looked at him suspiciously, and when their eyes met, she saw the guilty look on his face and she suddenly remembered.
She pointed at him, feeling embarrassed and angry, "You, you only think about that thing in bed!"
"Comfort is the most important thing," Huo Chengfeng smiled awkwardly. Such frank words made Shi Mingzhu glare at him.
Huo Chengfeng didn't dare to look into Shi Mingzhu's eyes again and made an excuse to go upstairs to move things.
When they came up with the things, they found Shi Mingzhu standing by the door, looking at the wall thoughtfully.
He glanced at her and prepared to leave.
"Will the sound really get out?"
Huo Chengfeng realized belatedly that Shi Mingzhu was asking him.
"……meeting."
"What can you do?"
"Move to the first floor. There is a yard on the first floor and the walls are thicker than those on the second floor." He already knew the general situation of the house when he rented the house and cleaned it.
"I don't want it!" Shi Mingzhu refused without thinking. She likes the second floor, which has windows and a balcony. There is nothing on the first floor except a patio. Why should you choose the first floor!
She looked at Huo Chengfeng and decided immediately, "We'll know after we give it a try!"
Huo Chengfeng was choked by her straightforward words and gaze and started coughing, "Cough cough cough..."
This was something Shi Mingzhu could say, so he was not surprised. But when he heard it suddenly, he was so excited that he even choked himself.
Huo Chengfeng stopped coughing until his face turned red.
"This, okay!" He couldn't help but curl his lips.
He was delighted. However, he felt that even if others heard it, they would not say anything.
But there is no need to tell Shi Mingzhu about this. After a few days, he will find something to thicken the walls to prevent the sound from leaking out.
Huo Chengfeng suddenly felt that all the tiredness in his body disappeared, and he was filled with enthusiasm and motivation.
"I'm going to move some stuff. Do you want to go downstairs and eat something first?"
Shi Mingzhu nodded. I went downstairs to eat with my mother-in-law and watched Huo Chengfeng work.
Maybe he knew that he would get benefits after finishing his work, so he was as excited as a chicken, holding a box in each hand and walking up the stairs quickly.
Shi Mingzhu had never felt the sense of being alive like Huo Chengfeng in her previous life. Because he died too early and he was in the army, the two of them had never been together for more than half a month.
Huo Chengfeng ran back and forth several times, and diligently hung her clothes in the closet, made the bed, hung the curtains, and even boiled a pot of hot water in the middle.
By the time he was done, she was full. Then he went upstairs.
Huo Chengfeng asked her, "I've boiled some water, do you want to take a bath?"
Shi Mingzhu chuckled and deliberately asked him, "So urgent?"
Huo Chengfeng nodded at her. He was indeed anxious. He wanted her to take a bath. It's too tiring to walk for a long time. It will be more comfortable to take a bath and sleep.
"Okay." Huo Chengfeng's reaction was not very interesting. Shi Mingzhu was not interested in taking a bath together with her husband for the time being. She nodded listlessly, took her clothes and went to take a bath.
After washing, she watched Huo Chengfeng drying his hair.
"Are you done washing?"
Huo Chengfeng nodded. It was more convenient to have a yard, but it was not good to be outdoors. It seemed that he had to add another thing to his plan: building a bathroom in the yard.
"Let's go." Shi Mingzhu invited him and went upstairs first.
Huo Chengfeng looked at her businesslike manner, paused for a moment, then walked over and picked her up by the waist.
"ah……"
Shi Mingzhu screamed and felt herself falling backwards out of control, her hands tightly around his neck.
She hit him in the face mercilessly and cursed, "You are sick!"
Huo Chengfeng let out a few muffled laughs from his chest and admitted, "Yes, I am sick."
The crisp sound of the slap and her scolding made Huo Chengfeng feel comfortable.
Her businesslike manner was too glaring.
Now it's normal. You should have more.
When Shi Mingzhu heard this, she slapped him again. He really deserved a beating.
Huo Chengfeng quickly walked up to the second floor, returned to his room and closed the door in one smooth move.
He picked up Shi Mingzhu, so that her eye level was with his, and then held her against the door.
"Pull first..."
"It's already been done." Huo Chengfeng knew what she was going to say and spoke quickly.
"Put me on the bed." Shi Mingzhu asked, avoiding his sight. I didn't dare to look into his eyes, because his aggression was too obvious in his dark pupils.
"No hurry, I think..." He held her with one hand, looking at her lips dimly, and put the other hand on the back of her neck, exerting slight force, and forced her to raise her head.
Shi Mingzhu couldn't stand his gaze and couldn't help pursing her lips. She felt her lips becoming itchy and numb as if they were real.
Huo Chengfeng approached and was about to kiss her, but Shi Mingzhu turned her head away and he kissed her on the face.
Huo Chengfeng was stunned.
"I don't want to kiss." Shi Mingzhu explained.
They never kissed.
She is not used to it.
A hint of disappointment flashed across Huo Chengfeng's eyes.
He pressed his lips against her cheek and kissed her ear. This time Mingzhu did not dodge. She heard a whisper with a hint of tenderness, "Then I'll kiss somewhere else."
The lips and ears touched, making a loud popping sound.
Shi Mingzhu felt an itch in her ears and couldn't help but let out a scream.
Hearing the gentle screams beside his ears, Huo Chengfeng couldn't help laughing.
"Be patient, or your voice will become hoarse again." He said in her ear, but in fact he wanted her to continue shouting.
She would scream if she was touched, and it was inevitable that her voice would become hoarse.
Shi Mingzhu pursed her lips tightly, but then she thought, she just wanted to test whether the second floor was soundproof, so why should she endure it.
So the screams got louder and louder.
The two of them walked from the door to the bed. Shi Mingzhu fell heavily, fear and trembling consumed her. Her swan neck stretched out in a graceful arc and she let out a high-pitched cry.
Huo Chengfeng became interested and made fun of her several times. Shi Mingzhu gradually began to cry and curse.
The chanting continued until midnight.
The next day, Huo Chengfeng put on his uniform and went to work in high spirits.
As soon as I arrived at the office, I was greeted by an old lady who was tremblingly leaning on a cane.
"Officer, I'm calling the police for disturbing the public!"
Huo Chengfeng: "Grandma, do you know where the disturbance is?"
"It should be near No. 41 Fenghuang Street. I called for half the night yesterday!"
"Officer, you need to tell them not to make noises in the middle of the night."
Huo Chengfeng's smile froze on his face.
No. 41, his home.
