The Red Star Steel Rolling Plant is outside Dongzhimen. After passing through Dongzhimen, go all the way to the west. Walk along a straight road. If you walk faster, you can walk to Nanluoguxiang in 40 minutes. If you walk slower, it takes more than an hour. It's done in minutes.

This road is full of children running wildly, let alone cars, there are not many buses on the street, not as many as horse-drawn carriages.

There are some bicycles, but not many.

On the concrete pier at the intersection of Beixinqiao, a traffic officer in leggings stood idle and bored...

The streets were full of pedestrians. It was time for school to end, so the streets were full of children.

But now it's not like the previous life. Not to mention the middle school students, there is no one to pick them up. Even the elementary school students are running around noisily with their schoolbags on their backs.

Those who are better off at home can spend five cents to buy a bunch of candied haws and candied haws on the roadside to enjoy themselves.

But most children can only watch around the children who are eating, and they are addicted to it.

Five cents is enough to buy a pound of cabbage. No ordinary person can afford it. There are so many children these days and there is not enough to eat...

Li Yuan slung his liberation bag across his body and jogged all the way back to Nanluogu Alley and rushed to the courtyard where the street was located. Fortunately, the people on the street hadn't gotten off work yet.

However, there were not many people coming in and out, so it seemed relatively peaceful.

Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, documents on mass defense and mass strategy have been issued. This is the origin of the three masters of the courtyard.

Although he is only a co-manager, he actually has a lot of power.

Because even to reduce trouble, the streets will listen to their opinions most of the time...

Now that most of the enemies have disappeared, and there is the presence of the superintendent, the work on the streets is getting easier and easier.

Most of the trivial matters such as family feuds, trivial matters, and neighborhood disputes are settled by the superintendent.

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

"Hello, Director Wang, I am Li Yuan from Courtyard 95."

Li Yuan walked in and went directly to the director of the sub-district office. When it came to housing allocation, it would not work without the signature of the director of the sub-district office.

Director Wang is a female comrade in her forties. She looks very capable in a Chinese tunic suit, but don't underestimate her as the director of the street office. She is a serious department-level cadre.

Seeing that Li Yuan was wearing a neatly washed black cloth gown, the lining and collar of the sweater had also been washed clean, and even his hair was fresh and refreshing, I couldn't help but feel good about him.

Nowadays, it is not unusual for the clothes and coat to be washed cleanly, even those who are more diligent at home can do it.

But the lining of the sweater is not kept clean very often. It is normal to wash the sweater once a winter.

As for the hair...

In the winter of ordinary people's life, women are considered thrifty if they wash their hands once a month, while men...

Doesn’t washing powder cost money?

Li Yuan was able to keep his hair clean because he once got a big bottle of Rejoice, and after using a little at a time, he could wash his hair every three days and use shampoo once a week.

The effect of this was immediately shown. Director Wang said with appreciation: "I know you are a technical secondary school student in our street. Did you graduate last year?"

After looking up and down several times, I thought to myself: It doesn't seem to be as bad as the rumors, the eyes are very upright...

Li Yuan took out the housing book and certificate from his satchel, and said with a smile, "Yes, Director Wang, I am currently working in the Rolling Mill Workers' Hospital. I have passed the assessment today, and I have officially become a full-time employee. The unit has allocated housing, please take a look."

Director Wang took over the house book and certificate and looked at it, then said with a smile: "Yi Zhonghai from your yard has brought Jia Zhang family here three times, and wanting these two rooms has caused headaches for everyone in our street. But the Jia family only has a non-agricultural hukou, and they are still first-class workers with short working years, which is really not in line with the two-room policy. Now it’s all right, the house is divided, and we can live in peace.”

Li Yuan saw her take out her seal, stamp the house book, and make a few strokes on a book, and then handed the house book back.

Director Wang smiled and said: "Xiao Li, since you are a doctor, if there is a troublemaker in the street behind you, you should get some snacks."

Li Yuan nodded and said: "It is necessary, it is my duty. Director Wang, there is one more thing I want to trouble you. Aunt Jia in our hospital is not very talkative. When I was eating in the factory cafeteria today, Comrade He Yuzhu reminded me that the If I take this apartment, I will be in big trouble. Mrs. Jia Zhang will not let me go.

It's not that I'm afraid, I just don't want to make the relationship with the neighbors too tense. I am now focused on improving my medical skills, and now that I have become a full-time professional, the time that Master can take care of me is running out. Traditional Chinese medicine practitioners cannot develop good medical skills due to the short time they spend with their masters, so they really don’t have the time and energy to cause disputes with neighbors. Could you please go and talk to the Jia family..."

Looking at his clean and sincere face, Director Wang looked at the time again, and said with a smile: "Success, it's rare to have such a good seedling who is hardworking and studious, we have to take care of him in the street. It's time to get off work soon, and I will Just on the way home.”

Li Yuan said hurriedly: "Director Wang, thank you."

Director Wang got up and walked out, and asked with a smile as he walked: "Xiao Li, you are in 1938, and you are exactly 20 this year, so you have reached the legal age of marriage. Now the house is also divided, and all conditions are good, yes It’s time to consider personal issues. How about the street introduce one to you? I’m sure the conditions are good.”

Li Yuan smiled and said: "Director Wang, thank you. It's just that I'm still young, so don't rush. The recent period is really important. I have to learn from my master and strive to be a useful and good doctor in the future, not a quack." At that time, I will ask Director Wang to help introduce the partner, my qualifications are better, and you will look better."

It's going to be a disaster soon. It's okay to have more mouths when you get married, but it's too troublesome to hide many things from the person you sleep with.

Once some things are unclear, the consequences will be dire. Don’t be upset if people around you treat them as spies and report them...

Li Yuan wasn't talking nonsense, he really wanted to learn medical skills.

After the great changes in the past life, too many traditions of traditional Chinese medicine have been cut off, so that in the future this discipline cannot be described as being in limbo, it will be completely half-dead...

Nowadays, the opportunity is rare, and there is nothing else to do. He would be too tired to go to the factory to drive screws...

Therefore, I am really studying hard!

Director Wang fell in love with this motivated young man more and more, and said with a smile: "Okay, you are so ambitious! Don't call me Director Wang. You are also a cadre. Calling me like this is too out of touch with the masses. Xiao Li, from now on you can just call me Wang." Just aunt."

Li Yuan was naturally happy to agree and said, "Hey, Aunt Wang!"

The two of them chatted and laughed as they entered the courtyard. It is said that this courtyard was originally part of the palace courtyard, and the floor height of the house was much higher than that of ordinary courtyard houses.

It's just that the wind has always been blown away by the rain and wind, and now only the mottled door remains. Even the paint has peeled off and the original color of the doorposts cannot be seen. There are also many damaged tiles on the roof.

As soon as he entered the front yard, he saw a middle-aged man wearing a shabby woolen hat and a pair of tortoiseshell glasses standing there. This man was Yan Bugui, the third uncle in charge of the front yard.

Li Yuan has lived in this courtyard for several years, and he really appreciates the calculating style of the third uncle in the TV series.

In this day and age, one person can support six or seven people by himself. It is not wrong to be good at calculations, but it is hard to avoid being a bit annoying if he is too calculating. But in general, his character is acceptable.

And because of his calculating nature, Li Yuan got a lot of negative emotions.

The resentment that arises after the plan fails is called an endless stream...

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

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

Li Yuan smiled when he saw him. This was the only one among the three men in the courtyard who had selfish motives but did not harm others.

This person's biggest problem is that he cares about money, to the point where he becomes obsessed and refuses to recognize his relatives...

Director Wang pointed at Li Yuan and said with a smile: "Isn't this Xiao Li who has become a regular employee? The steel rolling mill has allocated a room. I will bring him here to tell you about it."

Yan Bugui knew as soon as he heard that this was Li Yuan's reinforcements.

As he walked in, he looked at Li Yuan with envy and said, "Hey, Yuanzi, you are now a serious cadre!"

Li Yuan smiled modestly and said: "I am just a clerk, not a cadre. Besides, we are all serving the people. My master and Aunt Wang both told me not to be proud and to study harder and make progress."

Director Wang smiled and nodded. It was good not to be arrogant.

Yan Bugui believed in a ghost!

He knew much more about Li Yuan, because Li Yuan lived in the auxiliary house converted from the front hall, and the two were real neighbors.

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

Not to mention that I have never taken advantage of him, and I have been cheated on him several times. He is really not a son of a man.

So he didn't believe a word of Li Yuan who had an innocent smile on his face.

Seeing the look in Li Yuan's eyes, Yan Bugui felt a little nervous.

It was Li Yuan who came to the city from the countryside a few years ago. He was either an apprentice or a student, and he didn't have enough confidence.

But it was already very difficult at that time. Now that he has been completely transferred to a cadre position, wouldn't it be even more difficult?

He responded with a smile on his dry face, and without saying anything else, the group of people arrived in the middle courtyard.

It is when workers are off work, students are off school, and women are cooking, that the middle courtyard has the most residents and is the busiest.

Those who wash vegetables, those who carry coal, those who fetch water, those who pour swill, those who play with children...

It was full of people and lively.

Someone greeted Director Wang along the way, and Li Yuan took the key and went directly to the west wing.

There are two rooms in the west wing. The south room is occupied by the Jia family, and the north room is still vacant. The north room is connected to a wing, and now they are all assigned to Li Yuan.

He took the key and opened the north room. It was clean and empty. There was only a fire pit left in the room of more than 30 square meters. The wing room next door was similar, but much smaller, less than 20 square meters.

People had lived there before, so it didn't look very trendy. Although the walls were yellow and old, there was no large area of ​​peeling.

Of course, the furniture and other things had been moved away long ago, and even the stove for cooking was gone.

These days, stoves also cost money.

But it doesn't matter, don't delay.

And there are exactly two rooms, so both sides can take turns living during the renovation.

"Oh, what are you doing? Who asked you to open the door of this house?"

A chubby woman with bitch eyes came over hurriedly and said loudly.

In terms of facial appearance, the eyes and tails of bitches are rounded, not sharp like normal people, but rather arc-shaped, and the tails of the eyes are curved downwards.

Such eyes are said to be vicious by nature, and they can be ruthless for their own interests, whether they are their parents, husband and wife, children, or friends, without mercy.

The theory of physiognomy is not reliable, but this woman is obviously not easy to match...

Seeing that she was still waving a fire hook in her hand, Yan Bugui hurriedly shouted: "Mr. Jia Zhang, please be quiet. Didn't you see Director Wang here?"

Director Wang looked at this woman with an ugly face. She recognized Jia Zhang as a widow in the courtyard. She was in her forties and raised her son Jia Dongxu. Six or seven years ago, she married a girl from Qinjiazhuang in the eastern suburbs outside the city. Being a daughter-in-law.

He has a fierce personality and is good at messing around.

Mrs. Jia Zhang glared hard at Yan Bugui, said "poof", and shouted to Director Wang: "Director Wang, didn't my family apply for this house first? My uncle and I have gone to see you three times. Why did you give it to someone else? There must be someone who comes first, right?" He seemed furious.

Director Wang said calmly: "Your family does not comply with the policy. Besides, this house was not allocated by the street, but was directly allocated to Li Yuan by the steel rolling mill. This yard originally belonged to the steel rolling mill."

However, Mrs. Jia Zhang jumped to her feet angrily and cursed: "The steel rolling mill can't bully the people! My family has five people and they are still crowded into one room, and no one with conscience comes to pity our orphans and widowed mothers. This kid is He's from the countryside, he's just a farmer, and he's a sick boy who knows he'll be destitute one day. Why should he be given two rooms? I don't accept it! I'm going to sue him!"

Director Wang said sternly: "Jia Zhang, if you dare to mess around again, I will ask someone to take you to study now. Li Yuan has long been a non-agricultural registered permanent resident, and now he has been promoted to a cadre position. On the contrary, in your family, there is only one person in the family. Urban registered permanent residence. I don’t want to stay in the city, so I’ll go back to the countryside now. I’ve seen you pitifully a few times and don’t want to argue with you, but you’re so angry with me! Xiao Li, go to the street and call someone..."

Li Yuan said "Huh" and walked out.

"etc!"

As soon as Li Yuan took two steps, he saw a young woman with water-colored eyes, two braids, and a floral jacket holding a baby hurriedly squeezed in and said: "Director Wang, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry I'm sorry, my mother-in-law didn't mean it..."

But Director Wang ignored her. A serious and decent female cadre would feel annoyed when she saw a woman acting like this. How could she listen to such words?

Li Yuan continued to walk out, not wanting to be pulled by one arm. When he turned around, he met a pair of lovely and pitiful eyes...

However, no one expected that such a young man like Li Yuan would show no pity at all, he broke his arms free, turned around and was about to leave the Moon Gate.

A wave of negative emotions surged in Li Yuan's mind, obviously a certain popularity.

Director Wang looked relieved: he really is a good boy, able to withstand Hu Meizi's anger.

The rumors are unbelievable!

But at this moment, more than a dozen workers were seen walking over.

The leader was a middle-aged and elderly man in his forties, thick-looking and with a crew cut. He smiled at Director Wang from a distance and said: "Director Wang, please leave the affairs in this hospital to me. If you can't handle it well, , you are asking me."

This person is the uncle in charge of the intermediate courtyard, the eighth-level fitter of the rolling mill, and the most prestigious uncle in the courtyard, Yi Zhonghai.

Beside him, He Yuzhu put his arms around Li Yuan's shoulders and refused to let him go. He said cheerfully, "Brother, what am I talking about? Are you making trouble?"

The strength is a bit strong, it seems that breaking away from Qin Huairu just now made the old boy unhappy.

A young man later on also had a gloomy expression, and looked at Li Yuan with a vaguely unkind look. He was Jia Dongxu, the son of Jia Zhang.

On the other hand, the young man with a pouty face next to him glanced at Qin Huairu and winked at Li Yuan.

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

Li Yuan broke away from Silly Zhu with a smile, and did not forget to give him a dark elbow, then stood aside and watched the performance quietly.

After harvesting waves of negative emotions, Li Yuan's smile became more sincere. It seemed that he would be able to draw another prize tonight, but he didn't know what kind of surprise it would be...

Seeing the silly Zhu jumping up and down to smooth things over for Yi Zhonghai, Li Yuan was amused, how stupid he is!
