Now that we have a big goal, we need to work backwards and think about the detailed plans for each step.
Meng Sheng washed up quickly and had a general idea in his mind.
Sitting slumped in a chair under the eaves, feeling the cool evening breeze, he asked Shen Baojia, who was washing clothes in the yard, "Do you know where there are any neat little courtyards for sale in the city recently?"
The news about the three houses was also heard from Shen Baojia, a local resident who grew up in the county town.
Shen Baojia thought about it and shook his head: "A neat yard? I haven't heard of it."
After saying that, he immediately continued, "Brother Sheng, do you still want to buy a house? Then I'll go ask around!"
I'll tell you when there's news!"
"There's no rush to buy the yard. Just keep an eye on it for me. No need to go around asking around."
Meng Sheng knew that it was difficult to buy a house these days, and was afraid that this boy was too honest, so he gave him a warning.
Shen Baojia smiled and said nothing when he heard this, but he made up his mind to find a yard everywhere when he had time.
You know your own situation very well. If it weren't for Brother Sheng, you would still be working as a laborer on some construction site, and you'd be lucky to earn a few cents a day.
Now with a base salary plus commission, I earn more per month than in the previous months, and I don’t have to work so hard in the wind and sun.
Such a good job, such a good brother Sheng, I must hold on to it.
It was already late, and Meng Sheng was tired after a day of work. After talking about the house, he got up and went back to the house, and while walking, he told Shen Baojia: “I will stay here tonight and leave early tomorrow morning.
If you want to go home, come early tomorrow. If you don’t want to go back, clean up early, close the door, and go to bed.”
"knew!"
Shen Baojia responded softly and quickly washed the clothes and hung them up to dry.
The lights in the courtyard soon went out, and everything in the courtyard blended into the inky night.

The next day, Feng Yijia packed up and went out, and Meng Sheng was waiting at the door of the guesthouse again.
The waiter at the front desk was the same one as last time.
When he took the door key from Feng Yijia's hand, he showed a strange smile on his face, and raised his thumbs up meaningfully and said, "Sister, you have good taste!"
Feng Yijia didn't quite understand what it meant, so he didn't ask any more questions and left the guesthouse in confusion.
I happily followed Meng Sheng to the state-owned restaurant to eat buns.
Ever since he had eaten it in the carriage last time, Feng Yijia has been thinking about it all the time.
It’s a rare opportunity to come to the county town, so I must eat and take away the food.
Meng Sheng had his own plans in mind, but he managed to maintain a dignified appearance. His every move showed a sense of intimacy while maintaining an appropriate distance, so that no one would notice that there was anything wrong.
After taking people to the restaurant for breakfast, he went to the morning market to buy some meat, and then rode his bicycle to take people out of the city.
Two people were riding on a horse, passing through the green mountains and fields with a gentle breeze. Meng Sheng's heart was like the rising sun in the sky, becoming hotter and brighter.
Feng Yijia sat astride the back seat of the bicycle, holding the seat tightly with one hand, looking at the scenery receding on both sides, and remembered his plan to buy a bicycle.
He poked the man on the back and said, "It's too inconvenient to leave the village once. I plan to buy a bicycle after selling medicinal herbs a few more times.
Are you in a hurry to go back today?
If you don’t rush me, teach me how to ride a bike!”
After the two of them were reborn together and had contact with each other several times, Feng Yijia no longer treated him as an outsider from the bottom of his heart.
I don't feel embarrassed to bother others when asking for help.
Hearing this, Meng Sheng felt like a huge pie had fallen from the sky. With his mouth stretched to the back of his ears, no one could see him. He answered straightforwardly, "No, there's no need to rush me. You can study for as long as you want!"
Feng Yijia retorted in dissatisfaction: "You make me sound so stupid! It's just a bicycle, not a car. How long will it take me to learn it?"
Meng Sheng: ..., I got carried away and was a little exposed.
The two of them drove forward, found a relatively shady section of the road with few cars and people, stopped, and began to learn how to drive.
Feng Yijia sat on the seat of a 28-inch bicycle, and Meng Sheng sat on the back seat for the sake of stabilizing the balance of the bike.
From time to time, when the car was tilting, he would support himself with his feet and lean forward to teach people how to control the direction of the handle.
Feng Yijiajia was completely focused on the car that was swerving and wobbling under him, and didn't take the occasional physical contact seriously at all.
Meng Sheng smelled the faint fragrance so close to him, looked at the slender body that was almost embedded in his arms by a few inches, and taught people how to make a bicycle ride smoothly with a serious face.
But I couldn't help but feel restless in my heart, and I just wanted to hold the person tightly in my arms and rub him against my body.
Feng Yijia didn't learn for long. Perhaps it was because he had been floating around for decades, his soul was stronger than an average person's, his brain had become smarter, or his body had a good sense of balance, but in about half an hour, he could ride his bike around casually.
The speed was so fast that Meng Sheng couldn't react.
Despite such a great opportunity, he failed to touch anyone five times in total.
Feeling somewhat lost, he got off the back seat and sat back in the front, continuing to ride towards the village.
While bending over and pedaling, I soon made myself happy in my imagination.
If you have a smart mother, the children she will give birth to will definitely be pretty good too.
Those who have not dared to confess their feelings were thinking along the way that they and Feng Yijia might have some beautiful and promising children, and their hearts were filled with joy.
Feng Yijia's butt in the back seat was a little sore from the shaking, but he felt good because he had learned a skill.
It won’t be long before I can go to the city to do business at any time and eat all kinds of delicious food.
The two continued to go to the village, and on the way Meng Sheng took out the things he had hidden in the jungle yesterday.
He divided it into two parts on the spot, kept one for himself and gave the other to Feng Yijiajia.
Feng Yijia looked at the pile of things and subconsciously shook his head to refuse: "Don't give it to me, take it all home.
It’s not good to always ask for your things.”
“You know these things are just like those blown by the wind.
Besides, we are friends, so don't refuse.
Take it, I bought you one when I bought it. Otherwise, if I take so many home, my mother will definitely scold me for being a spendthrift!" Meng Sheng said as he put the things into the backpack.
Feng Yijia looked conflicted, and his heart, which didn't want to take advantage of others, became swayed by what he said.
Meng Sheng saw this and smiled again, saying, “Many people in later generations clamor to make friends with the local tyrants, advocating that those who don’t take advantage of others are bastards.
You've been drifting for decades, but it seems like you haven't learned anything at all?"
Hearing this, Feng Yijia rolled his eyes at him, but didn't refuse. He let him put the things away and snorted, "You've learned it! You've learned how to act like a rich man and give away money!"
