As soon as Zhang Yuejin saw the house, his face turned very bad and he quickly shook his head: "No matter how good the environment is, I won't live here. The eldest son of this family is a vicious man. He can kill a wild boar by himself. I have been beaten by him before. He is just a savage and unreasonable."
The village chief couldn't help but say a few words to help: "It's probably a misunderstanding that I beat you. The eldest son lives in the yard next door. They live in this yard and don't disturb each other."
Gu Xi nodded. It was really scary that he was so fierce. Just as she was about to leave, the door of the house opened and an aunt came out, smiling broadly: "Hey, new educated youth, are you looking for a place to live? Come to my house and take a look. There are five people in my family, my mother-in-law, me and my husband, and we have a 14-year-old daughter and a 7-year-old son. There is an empty room. Come in and take a look."
Gu Xi walked in. There were vegetables planted in the yard. The house was well built, but only one room was relatively clean. The rest of the place was quite messy.
Gu Xi walked around and saw a door on the side. She pushed it open and went to the next door. The yard was obviously spacious and clean. There was nothing in the kitchen and toilet. "Can I live here?"
The aunt's smile disappeared immediately: "This half used to be where my husband's previous wife and her family lived. Now they are all dead. His eldest son lives in this room, and the other half is empty."
Gu Xi nodded: "It's not convenient for me to live here as a man. Forget it."
Seeing that Gu Xi was still wearing her watch, the aunt didn't want to give up: "Oh, what do you mean by living alone? Aren't we all living together? But this half of the house will cost extra, one dollar a month. Look, these toilets are built according to the style of your city, and they are flushed with water. The rest of the toilets are stored and wait for the villagers to collect fertilizer and sell it for money. There is also a room next to the kitchen that is used for bathing."
Gu Xi was actually very satisfied with this environment, but it would be bad if word got out that a man lived here: "I'd better go take another look. Thank you, auntie."
The aunt still failed to keep Gu Xi. She looked regretful and went back to scold the man: "It's all your son's fault. He is so fierce and evil. Even the educated youth dare not live here. They can earn an extra dollar a month, and they can earn extra money for food. Look at that girl. She looks very well off and has a watch. Can you control your son? If I convince someone to live here, will your son beat me? The girl is so pretty, but he was beaten to death with just one punch."
The man smoked a cigarette and glanced at her: "No matter how fierce Wang Xu is, he can't hit a woman. If you come with a male educated youth, he might beat him up and throw him out. Which man wouldn't be tempted by such a beautiful girl? I understand my son, but I feel that the girl in the white dress is well-behaved and has more money."
The aunt rolled her eyes: "You men just love those who are weak and well-behaved. I have fought so many people since I was a child. Girls like these are not simple. You men know nothing. Look, Luo Jianshe insisted on marrying the female educated youth, and that woman was also of the same type. She did nothing. She made Luo Jianshe separate from the family. He was already the production team leader, but he still had to work hard every day, but all the money was spent by his wife to buy clothes. The son he gave birth to was also an uneducated one. He fell in love with the female educated youth, and later almost had to eat "peanuts". Luo Jianshe spent 200 yuan and used his connections to send the female educated youth to school as a teacher, and the matter was over.
The one wearing a white skirt and leather shoes may have the best on her. The girl who just came in is different. Her clothes are inconspicuous, but I think the fabric of her clothes is very good. And the watch on her hand, I saw it on the mayor's hand last time. It's called Plum Blossom brand, and it costs more than 300 yuan. It can be seen that she will be able to return to the city in two years. Maybe she can give the watch to me when she leaves. I will keep it for Congbao to use when he gets married. "
Gu Xi didn't know that she had been targeted by someone, so she went to the village chief's house with a group of people. The village chief's house was clean and bright. When the village chief's wife saw everyone coming, she took out a lot of melon seeds and peanuts to treat everyone.
The village chief introduced with a smile: "This is my wife. She is usually very warm and hospitable. We don't have many family members. After the separation, we lived on our own. We have a son and a daughter. The daughter usually helps the tailor shop in the town to do embroidery. The son just went to the town with the tractor to pay the public grain. He has to stay in the town for one night and will be back tomorrow. There is also a niece. Her father is my eldest brother. He died in the army. My sister-in-law also remarried. The niece is under my care. She is the scorekeeper in the team. She goes to work the earliest and leaves the latest.
There are two rooms in my house, one next to my daughter and niece's room, and one next to the kitchen. Look at them. "
Li Tong immediately raised her hand and said, "I'll live in the room next to your daughter. I also like embroidery and can learn from your daughter."
Zhang Yuejin also immediately took the initiative: "I'll live in the room next to the kitchen. I'm not picky. The main reason is that there are people snoring at the educated youth camp, and I really can't sleep well."
The other two did not argue anymore. Gu Xi felt that there were still too many people and the kitchen and toilet were inconvenient.
But when the village chief saw that Zhang Yuejin also wanted to live there, he sent him a private message saying that he didn't want to let him live in his house anymore. This man was unreliable and he always used sweet words to tease female comrades. He had a daughter and a niece at home, so he shouldn't be bothered by him.
But since he had already said there were two rooms, it was difficult for him to refuse. Seeing this, the village chief's wife was also afraid that Zhang Yuejin would yell at her daughter. I thought to myself, "Are you confused? Why are there two rooms? This one is reserved for us by our parents. We come here to stay occasionally."
The village chief then pretended to pat his forehead and said, "Oh, right, I forgot about that. Then we can only let Li Zhiqing stay here, and Zhang Zhiqing can continue to look for another place."
Zhang Yuejin wanted to stay, but he couldn't find an excuse, so he had to give up.
The village chief led the four people to continue searching: "This house belongs to the grandfather and grandson."
As they were introducing each other, Yin Jie ran out of the house and asked, "Village Chief, why are you here?"
The village chief smiled and introduced: "This Yin Jie lives with his grandmother, and the family is simple."
Gu Xi greeted with a smile: "It seems that the oxcart is quite fast."
Yin Jie scratched his head again: "Xu brother has no conscience, he has a wife and forgets his mother. Ouch... Grandma, you just wiped the table with this rag, why did you hit me on the head, it's so dirty."
Yin Jie's grandmother held her waist and said in high spirits: "You little rascal, I told you to study more. You always say all kinds of nonsense that are embarrassing, such as forgetting your mother after getting a wife. If your brother Xu hears it, he will beat you up again. My rag is much cleaner than your pants, which have holes in them and are smelly and dirty."
Yin Jie's face immediately turned red: "Grandma, can you please not say that my pants are smelly and dirty in front of others? People will take it seriously. I have washed them very clean now. No, please don't say that about my pants in front of others."
Everyone else couldn't help laughing when they heard this. Yin Jie ran out in anger and said, "I'm going out. I won't be back for dinner."
The old lady was in very good spirits and was very skillful. She cleaned the yard and the house. There were a lot of debris, but the old lady was reluctant to throw them away, so she put them away neatly. Sheng Huaian said, "Grandma, can I live here? You have another grandson, and I can help you with the chores when I'm free."
The old lady smiled and said, "That's great. My grandson is as slippery as a loach. You look calm and steady, so you can influence him subtly."
