Chapter 47
Xing Fei's small courtyard was bought for him by Han Zhong after he joined the army, using the money that Xing Fei sent home over the years.
At the time, a situation arose at the home of one of Han Zhong's elderly neighbors. The neighbor and her daughter-in-law had a ferocious fight, as if they were their former enemy. The fight was so rageful that the elderly man was hospitalized during the Lunar New Year holiday. Han Zhong inquired with others and learned that the incident stemmed from a laundry incident that had brought up past grievances.
Han Zhong was still frightened by this farce. They were actually a biological mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and he treated Xing Fei as his own son, but their foster father-son relationship was not fake, and he and his daughter-in-law were actually foster sons and daughters-in-law.
Although he knew that he was an old man and shouldn't have any disputes with his daughter-in-law, he also knew that he didn't have a very good personality and sometimes he was nagging! Forget about his own children, they wouldn't despise him, but other girls don't marry into the family to serve the family...
Han Zhong thought about it again and again, and felt that the reason why Xing Fei couldn't get married for so many years might be because his daughter-in-law felt that his adoptive father was difficult to deal with.
As the old saying goes, things that are far away smell good, while things that are close stink. Han Zhong hoped that his future daughter-in-law and eldest grandson would think of him as a kind old man. However, the house was too far away, making it inconvenient for Han Zhong to visit his grandchildren. Finally, he compromised and bought Xing Fei a small courtyard house just a ten-minute walk from his own home, close to the supply and marketing cooperative. Convenient!
.
Xing Fei unlocked the door, led Bi Chunliu in, and introduced: "When my father bought this house, it was a piece of land with a courtyard wall. The houses inside were all destroyed at that time. These few houses were newly built by my father before I retired. Take a look and see if there is anything you are not satisfied with. I will change it according to your wishes..." Xing Fei said the last sentence in a very low voice.
"I'm quite satisfied!" Bi Chunliu wanted to make things clear with Xing Fei today. She had been thinking about it for several days. She had originally wanted to go find Xing Fei in the next two days. It just so happened that Xing Fei also came to the textile factory today.
She had to admit that she liked Xing Fei, no matter if it was in her past life or now...
She also thought for a long time about what she liked about him. Maybe it was his thoughtfulness, or the way his eyes were filled with her, or maybe it was the way his smile made her feel good?
Bi Chunliu was emoting late at night. Was he a love-brained person?
But today, when she saw his eyes smiling at her in the factory office, she suddenly realized that she liked everything about him! She thought that if she didn't like him, she wouldn't think of him from time to time in her previous life and want to share everything with him.
If this isn't love, then what is?
Isn't it just a relationship where the two are of the same physical age but their emotions transcend age? She can do it!
Xing Fei was stunned when he first heard Chun Liu say she was satisfied. Did Chun Liu agree to this? Then he realized it, and a feeling of joy washed over him. He couldn't suppress the smile on his face any longer. "Really?"
Bi Chunliu smiled and looked at Xing Fei, "Yeah! Satisfied!"
Xing Fei quietly put his hands, which were shaking with excitement, behind his back, looked at Chun Liu with a smile, and whispered, "Can I call you Sister Chun Liu from now on?"
"Cough..." Bi Chunliu kept coughing. "Sister?!" How could Xing Fei look like he was in his twenties and fifties? If I didn't know he didn't have a first love or a secret crush, I would have thought his sister had some special meaning in his heart! What's wrong with liking to call her sister?
Xing Fei was at a loss as to what to do. He ran into the house and brought Bi Chunliu a glass of water. Then he nervously changed his words and said, "Forget it if it doesn't work. I'll just call you Chunliu."
Bi Chunliu waved his hand, "It's okay, just shout whatever you like..."
Xing Fei blushed and said shyly, "Sister Chunliu..."
Bi Chunliu: "..." No, it was you who wanted to shout, why are you shy? Was the character card sent out the wrong way or am I not used to the role yet?
Bi Chunliu stopped talking to the still shy Xing Fei and looked around. The house was built in a standard manner. It faced south and had three rooms. One was a living room, with wing rooms on both sides. To the east was a kitchen and a utility room, and to the west were two smaller rooms, which now contained two beds.
"These two beds were previously occupied by my colleagues. When we had dinner together, they didn't go home and slept here." Xing Fei wanted to say that if Chun Liu and he got married, these two rooms could be given to his younger siblings, but he was too embarrassed to say it now... It seemed like he was thinking of something else...
Bi Chunliu thought the house was really well built, except...
"Your father must have put a lot of thought into it. It's all very well built, and you can tell a lot of thought went into it! Hmm... could we add a bathroom and toilet to this utility room?"
She really didn't want to say it, but if she had the chance, she really didn't want to endure it anymore! The public toilet in the compound smelled terrible! Although it wasn't summer yet, and their compound was still a long way from the toilet, she was already worried about going to the toilet in the future. Going to the small one was fine, but she couldn't hold her breath when going to the big one, even if she suffocated herself to death...
People who are used to clean and hygienic toilets really can't stand dry toilets!
Xing Fei looked at the space in the yard and gestured. "Okay, then let's tear down the wall between the utility room and the kitchen and build a bathroom connected to the kitchen. Can the toilet be in the corner?"
Bi Chunliu: "Okay!"
"Then I'll ask someone to come over in the next two days. Come back and have a look after it's repaired!" Xing Fei is full of energy now!
"Okay... then..." Bi Chunliu's eyes turned, "Then Brother Xiaofei, you can find someone to start repairing it..."
Xing Fei:!!!
Brother Xiaofei… Chunliu calls me Brother Xiaofei… Chirp, pop~ Fireworks go off in my mind…
Bi Chunliu looked at Xing Fei's blushing face, but she didn't show it on her face, but she was laughing inside. This guy is still so funny...
.
"Weiguo, Xiahe, Qiuguo, hurry back home and see! Your eldest sister and Aunt Wang's son from your yard both received a banner today!"
Bi Qiuguo looked at the person who was speaking. It was Aunt Sun Ru from the compound next door. "Really? Aunt Sun, what kind of banner did my eldest sister win?"
Is the big sister's power finally hidden? I just don't know if she saved the good guys or beat the bad guys?
Sun Ru: "I don't know either. I heard it from Aunt Qiu. So I'm going with you to take a look." There have been a lot of embarrassing things happening in their alley recently. Now that something good has finally happened, of course they have to go and see what's going on.
Director Yao from the Subdistrict Office also came this time, which was a pleasant surprise!
Publicize it! We must publicize it vigorously! Otherwise, when other people mention their street, they will think that there are no serious people!
"He's really good! I felt that this child was different from other children when he was just born. Tell me, whose child can be so good! Look at this banner, my eldest son is so good..." Aunt Wang held her son in one hand and the banner in the other, showing off to others.
Director Yao agreed with Aunt Wang's opinion and pulled Li Musheng aside. "You've really done a great job! Aunt Wang, you're truly a hidden talent. Musheng is so nice! Do you have a partner?"
Director Yao really thinks it's good! With these two people's banners in the street, it won't be too difficult to write his summary for this year. Otherwise, the silly director next door would say every time he sees him, "Oh, isn't this Director Haibo from the cuckold street?"
Bah! He pissed me off so much that he had to ask his mother-in-law to go to his house to ask for something, and even scold him!
Li Musheng's left hand was held by his biological mother, Aunt Wang, and his right hand was held by Director Yao from the Street Office. "..."
Seeing the three siblings of the Bi family come in, they were like seeing their saviors, "Qiu Guo, is your eldest sister back?"
Bi Qiuguo: "Brother Li, we just got home and haven't seen my elder sister yet..." Could it be that Brother Li is so excited that he has gone crazy?
Bi Weiguo ran to Li Musheng and asked, "Brother Li, is my eldest sister's banner like yours? Is the handwriting the same as yours? Why did you get the banner? Did you contribute to the factory like my dad did?"
"No, Weiguo, don't get excited," Aunt Liu comforted Bi Weiguo. She could see that the child was scared, afraid that their eldest sister would become like their father. "I heard that your eldest sister went shopping. I guess she will be back soon!"
Bi Xiahe took the schoolbags from her brother and sister, put them back home, and then came out with her own schoolbag, "Brother, Qiuguo, let's go pick up big sister?"
"good!"
.
"Hmm? Xing Fei, please put me down in front. I can see my younger brother and sister." Bi Chunliu thought to himself that this twenty-year-old's eyesight was really good. He could see people from such a long distance.
Xing Fei was pedaling vigorously, "I'll take you there and say a few words to them."
Bi Chunliu: "Okay..."
"Big sister!"
"Big sister!" The three people shouted Bi Chunliu like little birds and went forward.
Bi Chunliu jumped off the bicycle and asked, "Did you come out from home?"
The three of them nodded, greeted Xing Fei, and said nothing more. They stood there obediently waiting for their eldest sister.
Xing Fei knew that they were all anxious to ask about Chun Liu's today. Although he was reluctant to be separated from Chun Liu, they were now a family... "You guys go home quickly, I'll find someone to renovate the house right away!"
"Okay! Go ahead." Bi Chunliu lowered his voice and said, "Remember to think of me..."
Xing Fei's face flushed red, "Ahem, okay!"
"Then let's go!" Bi Chunliu said and turned away without any reluctance.
Xing Fei: "..." He muttered softly: "He hasn't said whether he will miss me..."
Bi Qiuguo put her elder sister's backpack on her back and said, "Sister, Brother Li said you also have a banner. What is it for?"
Bi Chunliu hugged her two sisters and whispered, "Do you remember the day Nie Xiangnan came to our house to ask about the incident in Courtyard No. 4? I didn't say that since the doctor suggested Zhang Yu find a child, it must not be the first time. Later, we went to find Li Musheng and asked him to tell the police about that incident."
Seeing his elder sister speaking in such a low voice, Bi Weiguo asked, "Elder sister, is your throat uncomfortable?"
"No." Bi Chunliu didn't know why he asked that.
"Second brother, we don't know if the arrested person has any other accomplices. What if they find out and take revenge on me? That's why I spoke so quietly!" Bi Xiahe spoke for her eldest sister.
"Oh..." Bi Weiguo suddenly realized that the eldest sister is worthy of being the eldest sister!
Bi Chunliu: “…”
Well, yes, that's what she thought! It's definitely not because she was thirsty and wanted to talk without wasting saliva!
It’s good that the third sister is cautious, she deserves praise!
