Chapter 3: There's Trouble

Hongxing Steel Rolling Plant is located outside Dongzhimen Gate. After passing Dongzhimen Gate, it will go west and straight. It will take 40 minutes to walk to Nanluogu Lane faster and more than an hour to walk slower. If you ride a bicycle, it will take more than 10 minutes.

There are children running wildly all the way. At present, there are not many buses or carriages on the street, not to mention cars.

There are some bicycles, but not many.

On the concrete pier at the intersection of Beixinqiao, there stands a traffic attendant with leggings, idly wandering around

The street is full of pedestrians. Now it is the school end point, so the street is full of children.

But now it's not like the previous life, not to mention that no one is picking up and seeing off the students in the middle school. Even the primary school students are carrying their schoolbags and scurrying around.

Those who have better conditions at home can spend five cents to buy a string of candied haws and sugar figurines on the roadside.

But most children can only watch it around the children who eat it.

Five cents is enough to buy more than one jin of Chinese cabbage. Ordinary people are reluctant to buy it. These days, there are too many children to eat

Li Yuan, carrying a Jiefang bag, trotted back to Nanluogu Lane and hurried to the quadrangle where the street was located. Luckily, the people in the street had not finished work.

However, few people came in and out, and it seemed relatively free.

Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, the documents of mass prevention and mass policy have been issued, which is the origin of the three masters of quadrangles.

Although it is only for coordination and management, it has a lot of power.

Because even in order to reduce trouble, the street will listen to their opinions most of the time

At present, most of the enemies have disappeared, and there is a master in charge, so the work of the street is easier and easier.

Most minor matters, such as family affairs, trivial matters and neighborhood disputes, are settled by the yard master.

The main task of the street is to master some key core work, such as work arrangement, housing arrangement, marriage introduction, etc.

"Hello, Director Wang, I'm Li Yuan from No. 95 Hospital."

Li Yuan entered the door and directly found the director of the sub district office. When it came to housing distribution, it would be impossible without the signature of the director of the sub district office.

Director Wang is a woman comrade in her forties. She looks very capable in a Chinese tunic suit. Don't underestimate that she is just a street office director. She is a serious department level cadre.

Seeing Li Yuan's clean and tidy black cloth coat, and clean collar lined with wool, even his hair is fresh and refreshing, I can't help feeling good.

It's not uncommon to wash your clothes and coat clean, even the industrious ones at home can do it.

However, there are not many lined sweaters that are kept clean. It is common for sweaters to be washed once a winter.

As for hair

The common people live in winter. Women are diligent and thrifty when they wash their heads every month. Men

Does washing powder cost no money?

Li Yuan can clean his hair because he once drew a large bottle of Rejoice and used it a little at a time, so that he can wash his hair with clean water every three days and use shampoo once a week.

The effect of this is now shown. Director Wang said admiringly, "I know you, the technical secondary school student in our street. What did you finish last year?"

After looking up and down for several times, he thought to himself: it seems that he is not as weak as the rumor, and his eyes are very honest

Li Yuan took out the room book and certificate from his satchel and said with a smile, "Yes, Director Wang. Now he is working in the workers' hospital of the rolling mill. Today, he has passed the assessment and officially became a full member. The unit has allocated rooms. Please have a look."

Director Wang took over the room book and the certificate, looked at them, and said with a smile, "Yi Zhonghai from your hospital has brought Jia Zhang's family here three times. If they want these two rooms, everyone in our street will have a headache. But the Jia family is only a non-agricultural household registration, a first class worker, and has a short service life, which does not conform to the two room policy. Now that the house is divided, we can live in peace."

Li Yuan saw that she took out her seal and stamped it on the room book, and sketched a few words on a book, then handed the room book back.

Director Wang said with a smile, "Xiao Li, since you are a doctor, there will be a headache looking for you in the street in the future. You should serve some snacks."

Li Yuan nodded and said, "That's a must. It's incumbent on you. Director Wang, there's another thing I want to trouble you with. Aunt Jia in our hospital is not very talkative. Today when I was having dinner in the factory canteen, Comrade He Yuzhu also reminded me that it's a big trouble to divide this suite. Jia Zhang won't let me go.

I'm not afraid, but I don't want to make the neighborhood too tense. I am now bent on improving my medical skills. Now that I have become a full member, I don't have much time for Shifu to take care of me. The time between TCM and Shifu is too short to practice good medicine, so I really have no time and energy to quarrel with my neighbors. Could you please come here and talk to Jia's family... "

Looking at his clean and sincere face, Director Wang looked at the time again and said with a smile, "Cheng, it's rare to have such a diligent and studious young man. We can't help protecting our streets more. It's almost time to get off work, and I'm on my way home."

Li Yuan hurriedly said, "Thank you, Director Wang."

Director Wang got up and walked out, smiling as he walked, "Xiao Li, you are 38 years old, and this year you are 20 years old, which is the legal age for marriage. Now the house is divided, and the conditions are good in all aspects. It's time to consider personal problems. How about the street introduce one for you? It's not bad."

Li Yuan said with a smile, "Director Wang, thank you. But I'm still young, so don't worry. It's really important these days. I have to learn from my master to be a useful doctor in the future, not a quack. Then I'll ask Director Wang to help me introduce someone. My conditions are better, and your face is better."

It will be a disaster soon. It's OK to have more words when getting married, but it's too troublesome to hide too many things from the pillow.

Once something is unclear, the consequences are terrible. Don't be accused of being a spy by people around you

Li Yuan didn't tell the truth. He really wanted to study medicine.

After great changes in previous lives, too many traditional Chinese medicine heritages have been cut off, so that the future of this discipline can not be described as "green and yellow", it is completely half dead

Now the opportunity is rare, and there is nothing else to do. If he goes to the factory to screw, he is tired

So, I really want to learn!

Director Wang became more and more fond of this aspiring young man. He said with a smile, "Well, really ambitious! Don't call him Director Wang, you are also a cadre post, which is too detached from the masses. Xiao Li, you can call me Aunt Wang directly in the future."

Li Yuan naturally agreed with joy and said, "Ah, Aunt Wang!"

The two men entered the courtyard laughing and joking. It is said that the courtyard was originally part of the palace courtyard, and the floor height of the house was much higher than that of the ordinary courtyard.

However, the wind and rain always blow away, and now only the mottled gate is left. Even the paint can not see the original color of the gate post, and the roof tiles are also damaged.

As soon as I entered the front yard, I saw a middle-aged man standing there with an old woolen hat and a pair of tortoise shell glasses. This man was Yan Bugui, the third master in charge of the front yard.

Li Yuan has lived in this courtyard for several years, and really appreciated the style of the three masters who are good at calculation in the TV series.

In this year, a person fed six or seven people. He was good at calculation, but it was too much calculation, which inevitably made people a little annoying. But on the whole, his character was fair.

And because of this nature of calculation, Li Yuan has no shortage of negative emotions.

The resentment that comes from the failure of calculation is called continuous

"Oh! Director Wang, why are you here now?"

When Yan Bugui saw Director Wang and Li Yuan coming in, he was busy narrowing his eyes and asked with a smile.

Li Yuan smiled when he saw him. He was the only one of the three masters in the courtyard who was selfish but harmless.

The biggest problem of this man is that he is too fussy about money. He is going to be possessed by the devil, and his relatives refuse to recognize him

Director Wang pointed to Li Yuan and said with a smile, "Isn't it that Xiao Li has become a regular? The steel rolling mill has allocated a room for him. Let me show you."

Yan Bugui knew at once that this was Li Yuan's rescuer.

As he followed him, he looked at Li Yuan admiringly and said, "Oh, Yuanzi, now he is a serious cadre!"

Li Yuan said with a modest smile, "Just a clerk, not a cadre. Besides, they are all serving the people. My Shifu and Aunt Wang warned me not to be proud, but to study harder and make progress."

Director Wang smiles and nods. It's good not to be arrogant.

Yan Bugui believed in a ghost!

He knows much more about Li Yuan, because Li Yuan lives in the auxiliary room in the lobby of the front yard, and they are real neighbors.

But it has been five years since Li Yuan moved here. Yan Bugui has never taken advantage of him.

I didn't take advantage of it. I was pulled back several times, which is really wrong.

So he doesn't believe a word of Li Yuan, who has a pure smile.

Looking at Li Yuan's eyes, Yan Bugui felt a little beat in his heart.

A few years ago, Li Yuancai came to the city from the countryside, either as an apprentice or as a student. He was not so confident.

But it was already difficult to deal with at that time. Now that I have become a cadre post, wouldn't it be more difficult?

His dry face quickly squeezed out a smile to respond, no more words, and the group arrived at the middle yard.

It is when workers leave work, students leave school, and women cook dinner that the number of residents in the courtyard is the largest and the most lively.

Vegetable washing, coal carrying, water fetching, swill pouring, children playing

The crowd is buzzing with excitement.

On the way, someone greeted Director Wang, but Li Yuan took the key and went straight to the west wing.

There are two rooms in the west wing. The Jia family lives in the south room, and the north room is still empty. The north room is connected with a wing room, and now it is distributed to Li Yuan.

He took the key and opened the north room, which was clean and empty. The room with an area of more than 30 square meters was only left with a heated kang. The ear room next door was also similar, but it was much smaller, less than 20 square meters.

People lived before, so it was not very fashionable. Although the walls were yellow and old, there was no large area of peeling.

The furniture and other things have naturally been moved away, even the stove for cooking has disappeared.

These days, stoves also need money.

But it doesn't matter. Don't delay.

And there are just two rooms. When trimming, the two sides can take turns to live.

"Oh, what is this? Who asked you to open the door?"

A chubby woman with a pair of dog eyes came over and shouted.

In terms of facial appearance, the eyes and tails of female dogs are rounded, not sharp in normal people, but rather inclined to arc, and the eyes and tails are curved downward.

Such eyes are said to be vicious by nature, and they can be merciless to their parents, husband and wife, children and friends for the sake of interests.

The appearance is not enough, but this woman is obviously not friendly

Seeing that she was still waving a fire hook in her hand, Yan Bugui hurriedly shouted, "Jia Zhang, please behave yourself. Haven't you seen the street director Wang here?"

Director Wang looked at the woman with an ugly face. She recognized Jia Zhang, a widow in the courtyard. She was more than 40 years old. She dragged her son Jia Dongxu to grow up. Six or seven years ago, she married a girl from the Qin Family Village in the eastern suburbs of the city as her daughter-in-law.

He is shrewd and good at messing around.

Jia Zhang glared at Yan Bugui. After saying "boo", he shouted to Director Wang: "Director Wang, didn't my family apply for this house first? I and an uncle have been looking for you three times. Why did they give it to others? Someone has to come first to do everything?" It seems that they are angry.

Director Wang said quietly, "Your family does not comply with the policy. Besides, this house is not distributed by the street, but by the rolling mill directly to Li Yuan. This courtyard was originally owned by the rolling mill."

Jia Zhang was furious and jumped to scold: "The steel mill can't bully the common people! My family has five people and is still crowded in one room. I don't see anyone with a conscience coming to pity our orphans and widows. This boy is from the countryside. He is only a farmer. He is still a sick child. Who knows that he will become a householder one day? Why give him two rooms? I don't agree! I will go to sue him!"

Director Wang said sternly: "Jia Zhang, if you dare to mess around, I will send someone to take you to study now. Li Yuan has long been a non-agricultural household registration, and now he has become a cadre post. It's your family. Every family has an urban household registration. If you don't want to stay in the city, you will go back to the countryside now. After several times of looking at your pity, you don't want to argue with you. You still have your nose up! Xiao Li, go to the street and call someone... "

Li Yuan said "hey" and walked out.

"Wait!"

Li Yuan had just taken two steps when he saw a young woman with water color in her eyes, two braided braids, a tattered flower jacket and a baby in her arms rushing in, saying, "Director Wang, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, my mother-in-law didn't mean anything..."

But Director Wang ignored her. As a serious and decent female cadre, she was upset when she saw such a woman. How could she listen to such words?

Li Yuan continued to walk outside, but did not want one arm to be pulled, so he turned around and met a pair of pitiful eyes

However, nobody expected that Li Yuan, such a young man, had no pity at all. He opened his arm and turned around to leave the Moon Gate.

A wave of negative emotions surged in Li Yuan's mind, obviously someone was very popular.

Director Wang was pleased: he was really a good boy, and could withstand the coquettishness of a fox.

Rumors are not credible!

However, at this time, I saw a dozen dusty workers coming.

The leader was a middle-aged and elderly man in his forties, with a thick appearance and a flat head. He smiled at Director Wang at a distance and said, "Director Wang, I will handle the hospital's affairs. If it is not good, you can ask me."

This man is the steward of the Intermediate People's Court, and also the eighth grade fitter of the rolling mill. Yi Zhonghai, the most prestigious man in the quadrangle.

Next to him, He Yuzhu put his arm around Li Yuan's shoulder and refused to let him go. Hehe said happily, "Brother, what did I say? Is there any trouble?"

He is a little strong. It seems that he just broke away from Qin Huairu, which made the old boy unhappy.

Later, a young man with a gloomy face looked at Li Yuan vaguely. He was Jia Dongxu, the son of Jia Zhang.

Instead, a young man with a horse face looked at Qin Huairu and winked at Li Yuan.

His name is Xu Damao, and he is a resident in the backyard.

Li Yuan laughed and broke away from Silly Zhu, still giving him a dark elbow, and then stood aside to watch the performance.

After harvesting waves of negative emotions, Li Yuan's smile has become more sincere. It seems that he can draw another prize tonight, but I don't know what kind of surprise it will be

Looking at the silly column who jumped up and down to help Yi Zhonghai round the court, Li Yuan was funny. How silly he is!
