Chapter 190 The person who came to inspect
Lin Qi's way of paving the floor is different indoors and outdoors. Outdoors, the bricks and broken tiles are buried in the ground and then covered with a thick layer of soil; indoors, a layer of crushed stones and slag is laid first, then rolled flat, and then dense red bricks are laid.
The two of them worked together for a day and the whole house was transformed.
"Plant a vine near the entrance to block the view from outside," said Lin Qi.
"That's no problem. Vines are not crops or vegetables. Even if the people from the Revolutionary Committee want to intervene, they won't be able to find a reason." Xu Hexiao said.
He asked Lin Qi to plant vines, while he paved the road in the yard of more than a thousand square meters.
Now there is a large area of yellow soil exposed in the yard, without a single blade of grass. He divided the yellow soil into six plots, each separated by red bricks.
"Winter is dry and windy, which will blow dust all over the house. Should I plant grass in the yard?" Lin Qi asked Xu Hexiao for his opinion.
"Don't you grow vegetables?" Xu Hexiao asked.
Now the vegetables they eat are all grown by Lin Qi on the spot. They grow in one second and are put into the pot in the next second. They don't even need to be cleaned. They are the freshest. But if they don't go out to buy vegetables and don't grow vegetables at home, it will inevitably arouse suspicion from others after a long time.
"Are there any regulations for growing vegetables? How much can I plant? There should be a limit on the quantity." Lin Qi had a headache. The city was troublesome. There were too many controls.
Xu Hexiao thought for a moment and said, "Then don't worry, let's go to the street office and ask, then we can plant it."
"We brought a lot of fruit tree seedlings from the planting area. I'll plant them first. As long as they don't grow up, others will just treat them as weeds when they see them." Lin Qi said.
Xu Hexiao nodded, "Okay, let's plant them around the wall. When the fruit trees grow up, they can block out the sight and sound from outside, which is perfect."
After being busy all day, Lin Qi and Xu Hexiao were too tired to move at night. They ate, took a bath and went to bed, but still failed to induce the birth of Nanmu.
The next day, before Xu Hexiao took the initiative to go to the street office to inquire, several people wearing red armbands came to the door first.
Xu Hexiao went to open the door, while Lin Qi went to hide something.
The first things she hid were the five deer.
Lin Qi had hollowed out one side of the ground of the deer shed the night before, to a depth of two meters. According to Lin Qi's plan, on weekdays, the hollowed-out side was covered with wooden boards, and a thick layer of straw was laid on the wood to prevent people from noticing the underground.
Now, without straw or planks, Lin Qi could only cover the pit with beams removed from the roof. The beams filled the entire shed, hiding the five deer in the pit tightly.
After hiding the deer, Lin Qi also hid the two pairs of rabbits, leaving only two chickens, a male and a female, visible.
There were four people in total, three men and one woman. One of them was older, about 40 or 50 years old, and the other two men were younger, in their 20s. These four people usually had stern faces and stern eyes, with an aura of anger without words and awe without anger. When people outside saw them, they all retreated and took a detour.
However, when they saw the tall and handsome Xu Hexiao inside the door, they couldn't help but freeze.
What a cold man!
If they were pretending to be majestic, the man in front of them exuded indifference from the bottom of his heart. His pair of dark eyes were like knives, as if he would start fighting if they disagreed with each other.
Such an arrogant and cold man!
Older men and women know that this man should not be messed with!
Even the two young and energetic men couldn't help but look cautious at this moment.
"This is the new resident, Xu Hexiao. Is that you?" one of the men asked.
"It's me." Xu Hexiao responded, looking directly at the young man, silently exerting pressure.
The man just felt his back go cold and had an urge to run away. This Xu Hexiao was a little weird.
"We are here to explain to you some of our street management regulations and check if you have violated any rules. But don't worry, you are new here and don't know the rules. Even if we find any violations, we will just ask you to correct them. But after today, we won't be polite next time." The man raised his voice and his eyes became more fierce, trying to suppress Xu Hexiao's momentum.
But Xu Hexiao just said calmly, "Do you have a paper copy of the rules and regulations? Give me a copy so we can study it from time to time."
When he said this, the people from the four street offices were stunned.
He looks like a thorn in the side, but he's actually so well behaved?
After the rooms, pavilions, corridors and other buildings were demolished, the entire house was empty and you could see the inside at a glance.
Except for four rooms and a kitchen, such a big house was demolished like this!
The staff members of the four subdistrict offices heard about this incident yesterday, but when they saw it with their own eyes, they were still a little confused.
"You can look around at your own pace." Xu Hexiao said as he walked in front, not in a hurry or panic. He was too calm. It was obvious that he had nothing to hide and was not afraid of being investigated.
I just arrived, so even if I want to do something, it’s probably too late.
The four staff members subconsciously felt that they would not be able to find out anything today.
But since I'm here, I naturally have to take a look.
Xu Hexiao let the four men investigate the house while he went to the room and handed a few sheets of paper to Lin Qi. "The rules and regulations, what you can do and what you can't do, are all written here."
Lin Qi took it and read it quickly. She felt an inexplicable sense of absurdity in her heart. She could understand the planned economy, but why did the government have to control even how many livestock people raised, how many vegetables they planted, and how many trees they grew?
I can’t plant flowers yet!
Even brightly colored clothes are recommended to be worn less or not at all.
Lin Qi said with a wooden face, "It's okay for the children to wear brighter clothes, right?"
The four children have quite a few brightly colored clothes.
"There should be no one to take care of such a young child." Xu Hexiao said.
After saying that, the couple sat on the hammock and looked at each other in silence.
The four of them quickly walked around the entire yard and didn't find anything wrong.
"Xu Hexiao?" they shouted outside the house.
Xu Hexiao stood up and walked out of the room, "I'm here."
The four men heard his voice and walked towards the room.
"We need to go into your house and take a look—"
The voice stopped abruptly, and the person who spoke glanced at Lin Qi in the room. In the dim room, the woman's jade-white face radiated a bright glow.
Is that a human?
The man walked forward unconsciously. The beauty made him lose his mind. He forgot that he needed to lift his feet when crossing the threshold. He tripped suddenly and rushed into the house.
In panic, the man supported himself on the ground with his hands to prevent his face from rubbing against the ground.
hiss--
The man frowned and took a breath. He looked at his broken palms, his face and neck turned red, and he didn't know whether it was because of the pain or the shame.
The three people who came together also noticed Lin Qi sitting on the hammock, and their eyes widened.
“Ahem—”
Xu Hexiao looked displeased, "There are only two beds here, no need to look at them for so long!"
The four staff members suddenly came back to their senses, their faces flushed.
"Your wife is as beautiful as a fairy." The older aunt praised sincerely.
"The four children are plump and white. They are raised so well." The man didn't feel comfortable praising Lin Qi, so he praised the four children on the bed instead.
"Giving birth to four children at once, that's amazing!" The person who said this looked at Lin Qi's belly, then suddenly looked away. She looked only seventeen or eighteen years old, but she had given birth to four children. You couldn't tell at all.
The four people kept their eyes on Lin Qi. Xu Hexiao's face darkened and he said in a cold voice, "I'll take you to other rooms. This way, please."
Ten minutes later, Xu Hexiao sent the four people out and slammed the door.
On that day, everyone in the neighborhood office knew that the owner of the house coveted by many units was a young man who was not easy to mess with, and a woman who was extremely beautiful, and they had four children.
Xu Hexiao sent the people out, and Lin Qi went to release the five deer. He also helped to grow some grass on the ground, all of which were the food that the five deer liked to eat.
The chickens had their wings clipped and were also released.
As for the rabbits, Lin Qi thought about it and let them go, letting them go wherever they wanted. Anyway, she had food here, so they were reluctant to leave.
Xu Hexiao closed the door and turned around, only to see that the six plots of land were either overgrown with grass or full of vegetables and fruits. The speed was so fast that a look of surprise appeared on his face for a moment.
"Are you so anxious? Aren't you afraid that they will make a surprise attack?" Xu Hexiao said in a doting tone.
"It's okay. I have a way to make these plants disappear." Lin Qi looked calm, her eyebrows slightly furrowed. "I feel a little depressed."
"I have the same feeling." However, he has been suppressed for more than ten years. Now that the label of "five black categories" has been taken off, he feels much more relaxed.
Xu Hexiao walked over to help Lin Qi smooth her forehead. "I think the weather is nice today. Let's take the children out for a walk and have lunch outside."
"Okay. The kids are pretty bored lately, it's time to take them out to see the world."
By the time Lin Qi and her family had packed up and left, half an hour had passed and the sun had risen. Lin Qi and Xu Hexiao were carrying one child on their backs and another in front of them, and Xu Hexiao was holding a bag in his hand.
"After a while, I will try to make a stroller for the children to ride in. When I was in the Anliang Brigade, I saw the deputy captain had one at home." Xu Hexiao recalled the appearance of the baby stroller and planned to draw the appearance of the stroller after returning and then study it slowly.
"Then you have to make one that can carry four children at the same time, otherwise you won't be able to push several strollers at the same time if you go out alone." Lin Qi said.
"Four children sitting at the same time?" Xu Hexiao pondered for a moment, "It's not easy, it will probably take a long time."
"No rush. The kids are only three months old anyway. If they can sit up, it will take three or four months. By then, winter will be over and we can go out for a spring outing." It's November now. Three or four months later, it will be March. It shouldn't be cold here in March, right? Lin Qi wasn't sure.
Xu Hexiao smiled and said, "Okay, I will make it for the kids before March."
