As soon as Li Xuewu followed Li Xuewu out of Dong Wenxu's office, he met Fu Bin walking over, followed by a young man in his twenties wearing a straight tunic suit.
His face looks somewhat similar to that of Fu Bin. They both have wide eyebrows and a Chinese character face, which is the most rare face shape nowadays. They are exactly according to the standards of the host of the 7pm news.
When the young man saw Li Xuewu, he recognized who Li Xuewu was at a glance, because everyone knew that the security guard had a scar on his face.
When Fu Bin saw the two people coming out of Dong Wenxue's office, he greeted them with a smile, "Director Xu doesn't come to our security office very often."
Xu Sinian is also a wonderful person. He laughed and said, "I thought about it, but I have to put some effort into it. Your administrative budget for next year has been rebated again. This is not because you went to Deputy Director Dong and the budget report."
Chief Li of the Security Department is discussing it."
As Xu Sinian spoke, he smiled and nodded at the young man behind Fu Bin.
Fu Bin looked at the interaction between Xu Sinian and the people behind him, and then said to Li Xuewu, "You can apply for whatever you want. The budgets of other departments can be discounted. I told you not to discount the budget of your security department. You can discount the budget."
How to do the work?”
These words were meant both for Xu Sinian and Li Xuewu.
The reason for telling Xu Sinian was because he also knew that the leaders of each department were unwilling to have the budget of the department they managed be reduced. Although they had a beef with Li Xuewu, they had to maintain their reputation as a protector.
To say it to Li Xuewu is to criticize Li Xuewu. I support you so much on the budget. If your work is compromised, then if I deal with you, will you have nothing to say?
Otherwise, it is said that people cannot live without rights. On Sunday, Fu Bin was still a tiger without teeth. He smiled at everyone and looked like he was retreating to the mountains and forests. Now he has put on a pair of dentures and started to roar proudly in the mountains and forests.
.
"Yes, Director, that's what I insist on. If the work is done well and the funds and benefits for the comrades are not in place, then it will be a slap in the face if there is a commotion."
Li Xuewu is also firing on all cylinders now. If you Fu Bin press my head and put a tight spell on me, then I will raise my hand and give you a big mouthful, and then put the trouble gun into your throat.
Xu Sinian stood in the middle and broke into a cold sweat, listening to the two most powerful people in the security department wrestling with each other.
Damn it, don’t take me with you if you’re going to hurt or kill me. I’m just a fellow traveler.
Although both Li Xuewu and Li Xuewu were talking about maintaining the security office and dealing with Xu Sinian, anyone who understands knows that it has nothing to do with Xu Sinian. They are just a battle of wits between Fu Bin and Li Xuewu.
.
Xu Sinian's mood is very complicated right now, and he secretly swears in his heart that he will never come to the security office for the rest of his life. It's too dangerous.
"I said Director Fu and Section Chief Li are bullying people, right? I'm the only veteran who comes to our office, so you two can beat me up, right? In this way, you can wait for me to call someone when I get back."
This gag broke up the swordsmanship between Fu Bin and Li Xuewu. Otherwise, they would have said that Xu Sinian was an old fox and would have left based on this joke.
Fu Bin smiled calmly and said, "I heard that Hai Bo invited you to dinner last night?"
These words were like a holding spell that pinned Xu Sinian in place.
How to understand this?
Not satisfied? Then why is it called Haibo instead of Fu Haibo?
Doesn't this clearly mean that Fu Haibo has a relationship with him?
Satisfied? Then why do you look like you are asking for help?
Isn’t this like being a bitch and setting up a memorial arch?
Prove that you don't protect your own shortcomings and don't take care of your nephew?
Xu Sinian looked at Fu Haibo and saw that his expression did not change. Then he looked at Fu Bin, wanting to see what tricks this old bastard was playing.
Fu Bin used to be a pretty good figure when it came to doing things, but now that he's about to retire, how come he's so stupid?
If he did this, Xu Sinian would not take Fu Bin seriously.
Xu Sinian is not afraid of any tricks, because Xu Sinian has been in the workplace for so many years and has never been taken into a trap!
Except Li Xuewu!
This little bastard is so mean. It's not that he's not alert, it's that this kid is too cunning.
Fu Bin glared at his nephew behind him and said, "Get rid of these crooked people. What I despise the most is people like you. Go ahead and do whatever you have to do."
Fu Haibo looked at Li Xuewu, as if he wanted to recognize Li Xuewu's face clearly, and then turned around and left without saying a word.
"Demon Town Museum"
Li Xuewu and Xu Sinian looked at each other in confusion when they saw Fu Bin getting angry. They didn't know what Fu Bin meant.
It wasn't until Fu Haibo went downstairs that Fu Bin sighed and said, "It's crazy to want to make progress. Learn martial arts. You are good at it. Don't imitate him."
Then he said as if he remembered something, "If things can happen on the wine table, then we can have a lot of wine. If he dares to organize a wine party in our factory, you will lead people to arrest them and treat him as a disturbance."
Public security regulations, I said so!"
As he spoke, Fu Bin turned around and entered his office, leaving Xu Sinian winking at Li Xuewu.
After the two of them walked down the stairs and arrived at the door of the building, Xu Sinian whispered, "Director Fu sang "Yuanmen Zhanzi" for you. What do you think of the singing?"
Li Xuewu said with a bad smile, "Hey, hey, hey," "Hey, what else are you talking about? Your words are powerful, conclusive, and confident."
Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows and gestured to the people upstairs, and then said, "Especially the last "quat tune" rising from the ground, soaring straight into the sky, sharp and unstoppable, showing his firmness in enforcing the law and not showing any favoritism.
will"
Xu Sinian looked at Li Xuewudao with squinted eyes: "I finally discovered that you guys who can write are really good at writing."
"Just by hiding it from others, I can make you name so many flowers immediately!"
Li Xuewu smacked Xu Sinian's belly and said, "Your brother's singing of "Empty City Strategy" is pretty good. His pronunciation is grand and his rhyme is harmonious and elegant; the melody has a clear high note and a steady bass; the rhythm is well-proportioned and ups and downs."
Xu Sinian waved his hand and said, "Brother is convinced, don't worry, brother will always be on your side."
Li Xuewu smiled and said, "I have never doubted our relationship. I would dare to say that to anyone."
Xu Sinian smiled and patted Li Xuewu on the shoulder, acting like a good brother, and then asked inadvertently, "Have you found the proof you mentioned last time?"
Li Xueqiu asked dumbly, "What proof is this?"
Xu Sinian laughed dryly "Hahaha" twice and then said, "It's nothing, just forget it. Let's do this for now. I'll go back first. I have other things to do."
Li Xuewu took two steps and said, "Shall I see you off?"
How could Xu Sinian dare to let Li Xuewu deliver him? Those who were asked to deliver him either went in or were destroyed. He waved his hands and said, "We are all brothers, don't do this." After saying this, he left the door of the security office.
Li Xuewu stood in the foyer and watched Xu Sinian enter the main office building before returning to the security department on the first floor.
When passing by the security unit and security unit, they called Han Yating and Han Zhan over.
As soon as he entered the room, Li Xuewu asked, "Has the security department received many reports recently?"
Han Yating didn't know why Li Xuewu asked this, but she still replied, "It's pretty normal. I still have the same amount of eucalyptus every week, so I don't feel much."
Li Xuewu frowned and asked again, "Are there many offices sent to coordinate and inquire?"
Han Yating nodded and said, "That's quite a lot. Some workers have children who are naughty and cause trouble on the street. The police department will call us to call the parents."
"Is there any theft or robbery?"
Han Yating didn't know what happened to Li Xuewu and why he asked such serious questions.
But seeing that Li Xuewu's attitude was very serious, he replied very formally, "No, our security department has not received any such cases."
Li Xuewu nodded and asked Han Zhan, "Where is the patrol? Did you encounter anything?"
Han Zhan looked at Li Xuewu and said, "I have more people here. These brats don't stop now at night. They are not afraid of us when there are more people. If we hadn't brought guns, I think we would have suffered a loss."
Li Xuewu frowned and looked at Han Zhan and said, "I'll give you a task. Ask the security guard to ask me who are the people in our workers' residential area. Those who are more thorny are better. Those with special circumstances are better. Remember, don't alert the snake. Find someone.
It’s up to someone to do it”
Han Zhan nodded and went out to do errands. Li Xuewu said to Han Yating, "Director Yang went to the workshop to inspect the work. Some workers reported that thefts occurred in residential areas in the city.
People were robbed when they returned home, and some lesbians said the streets were unsafe.”
Han Yating frowned and asked, "But we haven't received such a news?"
Li Xuewu knocked on the table and said, "I encountered this when I got home yesterday. Thanks to me, otherwise the workers in our factory would suffer."
"ah?"
Han Yating was also surprised that this was true, and couldn't help but scream in surprise.
Li Xuewu frowned and said, "This is because we did not do our job well. Although this kind of thing should be reported to the local dispatch office first, we did not know that our workers were harmed. This is our dereliction of duty."
"In this way, you go to the factory radio station and draft a message saying that the Security Department is cracking down on public security crimes and asking all worker comrades for clues. This message will be one per day. It will update in real time how many reports and clues you have received.
How many have been identified, how many have been identified, and how many have been arrested?”
"Section Chief, this is a troublesome matter."
"You have to do the trouble"
The greater the crisis, the more he wants to occupy the high ground of public opinion. Li Xuewu never fights an unprepared battle.
Now that I am in the Ming Dynasty, how can I not control the situation?
"I understand, section chief, I'll do it right now."
In the afternoon, as soon as Li Xuewu got up from the bed in the office, he heard the clear and melodious female announcer's voice coming from the factory radio station, and it was broadcast three times in a row.
Is it possible to say important things three times now?
After being busy for a while, Li Xuewu called Wei Tong to go to the auto repair shop in the factory's logistics department. The two vehicles in the security department were all modified.
"Section Chief, I'm going to carry out human-vehicle synchronization training in the afternoon."
Li Xuewu nodded and said, "Okay, I need to practice well. I have to practice hanging the light machine gun, doing duty, arresting, searching, jumping out of the car during operations, and getting in the car."
Wei Tong nodded and said, "We will practice after we get the car."
Li Xuewu pointed to jeep lane 212, "Let's go to this one too. There are radios in both vehicles. Combined with the walkie-talkies, you have to be able to command the escort."
Wei Tong said with some embarrassment, "We drove this car away. What are you driving?"
Li Xuewu patted Wei Tong on the shoulder and said, "This is a command vehicle. Why should I drive it? Buses must be shared by the public. This is the principle of the Security Department and my bottom line."
Wei Tong saluted and said "Yes"
Li Xuewu opened the door of 212 and said, "Not only trucks need to be trained to get on and off the train while driving, but also jeeps. The command vehicle can be transformed into a mobile vehicle at any time."
After closing the car door, Li Xuewu pointed at Comrade Wei and said, "Now our security department has three motor vehicles. You have all seen how awesome the duty conditions are. If I pull my crotch, I will be embarrassed."
Wei Tong once again assured, "The quality of the team members is not low. What they lack is experience. Start learning now and ensure that you learn quickly."
Li Xuewu looked at his Willis, which had been repaired, and asked Comrade Wei, "Is the equipment ready?"
Wei Tong nodded and said, "I brought it back at noon. The team members are very happy to wear new clothes."
Li Xuewu said seriously to Wei Tong, "You must have new beauty when you wear new clothes, but don't follow the old path."
"yes"
"Go ahead and drive the car away"
After Wei Tong left, Li Xuewu took a closer look at his Willis.
In fact, the current ownership and use of this vehicle is still very high. The reason is that the captain of the transportation brigade left a lot of it. After all, the United States later supported Captain Chiang with a large amount of American equipment.
Another thing is that the United States contributed a lot during the Korean War, so many units are using this car.
The Jingcheng Factory also copied this car, but unfortunately the copying was incomplete. Only the forward gear was copied, but the reverse gear was not copied, so that car unfortunately could only move forward.
Although this sounds like a joke, it truly reflects the current level of our industry.
When Master Zhang saw that Li Xuewu was interested in this jeep, he stood on the side with a smile and introduced it, "It's no big deal. The water tank is cracked. I'll fix it for you. I'll also change the tires and everything else."
new one”
"It's just that we can't find any materials for this soft top, so I made one for you out of the thickest cotton from the labor protection factory. I won't go into details about the other parts, and you don't know them either."
Li Xuewu smiled and got into the car to try it out. Hey, it's really not too narrow. Li Xuewu, who is about 1.8 meters tall, is very spacious inside.
Of course, you can’t have too many requirements in terms of comfort.
The most interesting thing about this car is that the front windshield can be folded forward. There are no doors in the whole car, only an arc-shaped gap, which not only makes it easier to get in and out of the car, but also reduces the weight.
However, while focusing on maneuverability, warmth was given up. People were too exposed in the car in the winter. This also led to Li Xuewu possibly having to wear a large cotton-padded jacket to drive the car, or wait until the weather got warmer before driving.
Willys Jeep is equipped with a 2211cc engine with a maximum power of 44 kilowatts. The most intuitive impression of this power is that it can be used as a locomotive by removing the tires.
Of course, just saying that, if you really want to let it drag dozens of carriages, that's sheer nonsense.
As for whether Li Xuewu dares to drive this car on the street, there is no such concern at all. Not to mention Li Xuewu's identity, it is the car brand that Gu Shen brought. Even if Li Xuewu dares to drive this time next year
.
"Okay, thank you, Master Zhang. Where's the expense list?"
Li Xuewu was very satisfied with the car, so he raised his head and asked Master Zhang for the cost list.
Master Zhang turned around and took out a piece of paper from the iron cabinet and handed it to Li Xuewu and said, "You are really principled. Take a look, the expenses are all on it."
Li Xuewu looked at the list and saw that the total amount was only more than 30 yuan. Li Xuewu raised his head and asked, "You didn't help me save money, hahaha."
Master Zhang saw that Li Xuewu's words were half serious and half joking, so he also joked and said, "What's wrong? It's too little. If it's too little, I'll give you more. Hahaha, it's not a big deal. I added 3 more."
I spent 1 yuan on paint, but I didn’t waste it, I sprayed it on the car for you.”
Li Xuewu looked at the newly painted car body, nodded and said, "Thank you for your hard work, I will drive the car away."
After joking for a while, Li Xuewu lit up the car and drove the jeep that was more than ten years old out of the auto repair shop.
Park the car in the garage of the security department, because the garage here is connected to the heater, and like the small fleet, there is no need to heat the car in winter.
I went to the Finance Department and paid the fees according to the list.
When Feng Juan saw Li Xuewu coming to pay, she looked at the list in Li Xuewu's hand and said, "You are so fickle. You used to pay for heating, and now you pay for car repairs. The more you pay, the bigger it gets."
Li Xuewu took out the money and handed it to Feng Juan, saying, "My boss's car was brought here after I said it was well repaired by our auto repair shop. Here, I'll give you the money."
Feng Juan smiled, pursed her lips, accepted Li Xuewu's money, and issued another invoice to Li Xuewu.
Li Xuewu did not return to the office building after coming out of the finance department, but went directly to the guest house to have a look.
Master Dou is really capable, and he really hired people to take on such a project.
Li Xuewu saw that there were forty or fifty people working on the construction site of the guest house. Seeing Li Xuewu coming, Master Dou and Xu Ning both came over.
Li Xuewu smiled and said to Xu Ning, "Director Xu, the new official has three things to do when he takes office. This first thing is considered to be burning brightly."
Xu Ning smiled and lit cigarettes for Li Xuewu and Master Dou, and then said, "Hey, it's not all about your support. How about it? Let's go in and have a look."
Li Xuewu waved his hand and said, "Just tell me, I have something else to do."
Seeing that Li Xuewu was unwilling to go in, Xu Ning didn't let him go anymore after thinking about the gray inside. Instead, he introduced a general situation to Li Xuewu.
"The power grid and pipe network on all floors have been renovated. The walls are being cleaned now. It is expected to be completed today and the wall painting will begin tomorrow."
"The progress is so fast?" Li Xuewu was also a little surprised. If he continued like this, he wouldn't have finished all the work in a week.
Master Dou smiled and said, "This is a big job. As long as there are more people, it will be slower. For example, furniture, window frames, etc. all need experienced carpenters to do it, and novices can't do it."
Li Xuewu nodded and said, "That's fast enough, it's amazing."
Master Dou narrowed his smile.
Eyes said: "You trust me and introduce me to such a big job. Of course I have to pay attention."
While they were talking here, someone called Xu Ning again. Li Xuewu did not let Xu Ning accompany him here, but waved his hand and said, "Go and do your work, I just came to take a look."
Xu Ning still had something to do, so he said to Li Xuewu, "The service staff are training over there in the small auditorium. I have to go and take a look. You can watch from here."
After seeing Xu Ning off, Master Dou handed the key to Li Xuewu and said, "I really didn't finish cleaning up on Sunday. I was busy for a long time on Monday. The chimney was rebuilt, the stove was newly built, and I tried the heater. There was a leak.
It’s been repaired, but I don’t know if it can survive. I’ve drained the water again, otherwise I’m afraid of freezing.”
Li Xuewu nodded and said, "I'm really sorry to trouble you. Could you please calculate how much the project in my west courtyard plus that courtyard's project will cost in total?"
Master Dou said sheepishly, "Don't worry, you can spend it first."
Li Xuewu smiled and said, "I have it. If you lead people to work, please don't default. Please give me the amount."
Master Dou knew this already, and when he saw what Li Xuewu said, he smiled and said, "Thank you then, so be it, you can give me another 500 yuan."
As he spoke, he waved his hands and emphasized, "I don't want much from you."
Li Xuewu knew he didn't want much, so he took out the money from his pocket, counted it and gave it to Master Dou.
"I even doubt that you want less, hahaha"
When Master Dou saw that he had money, he also smiled and said, "If you introduce me to such a big project, why should I have the nerve to ask you for more money? Isn't that such a waste of money?"
Li Xuewu flicked the ashes of his cigarette and said, "Okay, my last account has been settled. I'll tell you about another job."
Master Dou said "Hey, you" and was about to take out the money given by Li Xuewu. While doing so, he said, "Why didn't you tell me earlier if you still had work? I can't ask for your money first."
Li Xuewu pressed Master Dou's hand back and said, "One yard is for the other. I can't let you suffer, isn't it? You are the Dongkua Yard of our yard."
Master Dou looked at Li Xuewu in confusion. He didn't know what Li Xuewu meant. He had been working at Li Xuewu's house for nearly a month. He still knew the layout of the courtyard. The east courtyard was not for human habitation.
What a place.
Li Xuewu explained Yu Li's idea in detail to Master Dou, and also talked about the idea of replacing soil with bricks.
Master Dou nodded and said, "That's no problem. When do you want to start work? I can't do anything at the moment. All the people I can find are used here."
As if he had made up his mind, he added, "If we withdraw people here, we won't be able to complete the progress."
Li Xuewu nodded, understanding what Master Dou meant, and said, "Don't worry, just wait until the things are done here. It'll be fine in spring."
Master Dou then smiled and said, "According to your wishes, Director Xu, this work really has to be done after spring, hehehe."
Li Xuewu smiled and pointed around Tuanjie Lake and said, "Is it asking you to do the gardening?"
"Yes, Director Xu's requirements are quite high, so I can finish my work next summer."
"That's a good thing," Li Xuewu said with a smile, and continued to explain, "The house in the east courtyard can be built when the weather warms up. It's not like my west courtyard where I have to worry about running it."
"Don't worry, as soon as the ground thaws, I will start work."
Li Xuewu nodded and said, "You have been there too, so you don't need to look at the terrain anymore. Can you please calculate how much it will cost?"
Master Dou did a mental calculation and said, "According to the standard in your hospital, a total of more than 600 is enough."
"Yeah, okay, that's it. We'll contact you later for the specific start time."
Master Dou really gave me a discount. Not many people can build houses at this price nowadays.
Li Xuewu discussed with Master Dou about building a house and returned to the office building.
At about four o'clock in the afternoon, Li Xuewu called Dong Wexue to tell him about the field service, then went to the bicycle storage area, pushed his car to the garage, and hung it on the back of the jeep.
Although Li Xuewu was well prepared, wearing a cotton hat, cotton hands, and a coat on his legs, even so when he drove the jeep to No. 1 Courtyard of Haiyun Road, his legs were completely frozen.
I jumped out of the car and moved around for a while, opened the big iron gate with the key in my hand, reversed the car into the yard, closed the gate again, and then started to look around the yard.
No wonder Master Dou said it took a day and a half to clean it up, but it turned out that the yard also helped clean it up.
The original brick road from the main gate to the entrance of the villa had become bumpy due to being unoccupied for many years, but it has now been paved.
The ivy attached to the second floor of the villa has withered and died because it has not been repaired and cleaned for many years. Master Dou has also cleaned it up. Now it seems that this two-story villa is really clean for all ages.
Li Xuewu walked up the steps and took a look. The doors and windows of the villa had been repainted, and the glass looked brighter against the backdrop.
Opening the door of the villa, the reddish sunlight reflected from the west window revealed the original shape of the dust in the living room.
This is what happens to a house that has been unoccupied for a long time. No matter how high-end the house is, as long as it is empty for a long time, it will become ashes.
Li Xuewu stepped on the wooden floor and walked in. He saw that the furnishings in the room were still the same as when he came last time. Even the piano in the corner of the living room was still covered in dust.
I stacked the floor under my feet with my feet. I don’t know what kind of wood it is. It has not cracked after so many years, and there is no creaking sound when I step on it.
Entering the Bajiao Restaurant on the left, the furniture in the restaurant is also covered in dust, and there are signs of construction in the kitchen.
A new stove and stove were built near the north, and the heating stove was also moved here.
Li Xuewu didn't pay much attention to this. The house here won't be available for a while because it's too far away from home.
Although the den in the backyard is not as luxurious as here, it is warm and convenient, and you have everything you need.
Every day, my grandpa burned the stove, and my grandma and daughter took care of the house. Now Yu Li asked me to clean up the house.
Not to mention rushing to wash the clothes, Yu Li saw Yu Li washing, and Sister Qin saw Sister Qin washing. Anyway, the clothes Li Xuewu took off were washed and hung on the clothesline inexplicably.
I closed the kitchen doors and windows tightly and looked upstairs again. Except for the falling dust, everything else was still the same.
Li Xuewu has a lazy character. He will not do this hygiene by himself. He will wait until he catches a young man one day.
I drove out, locked the door, and drove back home.
When I entered the west courtyard, I saw my eldest grandma and my second master moving things into the front door's room. There were tables, chairs, benches, a large scale, and a pile of wooden boards that my eldest grandma had made.
"Grandma, what are you doing?"
Grandpa was not surprised to see Li Xuewu driving back. He had seen many American jeeps before.
"Lao San said that we will open tomorrow and we will dump the stuff in the recycling store."
While talking, Yu Li came over with a basin of hot water. When she saw Li Xuewu standing at the back door of the doorman's nursery, she said hello with a blush.
Li Xuewu smiled and entered the front room through the back door without saying a word.
The house here is quite spacious. The two rooms are about forty square meters each. The back door is in the southeast corner and the front door is in the middle. They are both double-opening.
On the north wall of the house, the eldest grandma and the second master were busy mounting shelves. In front of the shelves was a counter made of cement bricks, and under the counter was a slippery table.
Because this place recycles small items or valuable items, large items such as broken copper and iron are weighed in the hall and then transported directly from the left-hand aisle to the backyard.
Starting tomorrow, as soon as the recycling shop here opens, the gate to the west courtyard will be closed and will only be used for vehicles entering and exiting.
With this beautiful room, the second master and the eldest grandma no longer have to lean on the window of the front room and look at the west courtyard when they are on duty. They can collect the waste while sitting in the room.
According to Wen San'er's wishes, there will also be a second-hand goods exchange operation here, which is similar to a consignment store, but it is not a consignment. Instead, it collects and sells used goods by itself.
In the future, when people bring things over, they don’t have to wait for the entrusting store to sell them before collecting the money. Here, you can directly take the money and leave.
Because Wen Saner and others have tricycles, they also have a service for picking up and delivering goods.
Wen San'er told Li Xuewu about this matter, and Li Xuewu meant that there would be no transportation fee. As long as it was sold or purchased in a recycling store, transportation would be included.
Wen San'er is very supportive of Li Xuewu's idea. Now he has reaped the dividends from the previous batch of repeat customers. Although there are fewer goods now, he still has contacts.
This seemingly loss-making approach can attract repeat customers.
The owner of the goods asked Wen San'er to deliver the goods to the store for free, or Wen San'er came to collect them directly.
If the store loses money after selling, it has nothing to do with the owner of the goods. This is just taking advantage of the entrusted store's loophole.
Li Xuewu walked inside and saw that the recycling store here and the two rooms on the west still had doors open, so he thought that Wen San'er was going to do a second-hand business.
Here we collect used goods, and there we sell used goods. We go in and out to eat twice.
After looking around and seeing that there was nothing to worry about, he turned around and walked back. He asked Yu Li, who was wiping the counter with a rag, "Is the move finished?"
Yu Li smiled and nodded and said, "At noon, Sanjiu and Biaozi helped me. I went to the vegetable market to buy vegetables. Will you eat at home tonight?"
Li Xuewu looked at Yu Li's expectant eyes and nodded, "Here, bring my food, but now I have to go see my friends."
As he spoke, Li Xuewu went out of the house and walked to the back room. He rummaged for a while and found the fishing rod he had used to hide his eyes from others. This was borrowed from Master Ding of Dongsiliu Hutong. He had to give it to someone if he didn't need it now.
Return it.
This is called borrowing something and borrowing it again is not difficult.
Not only carrying the fishing rod, but also carrying two big fat rabbits, this is disrespectful.
The cabin of Willys is very small, and the back seat is already very crowded, let alone the trunk. I can't say it is very small, but there is none at all.
But the back seat could be stowed away. Li Xuewu threw the fishing rod and two rabbits into the back seat, got in the car, started it on fire, and drove towards Dongsiliu Alley.
It was not time to get off work yet, so there were not many people on the street and it was very open. Li Xuewu didn't think about whether Master Ding was at home.
This is also the reason why Li Xuewu has not been here for so long since he came back, otherwise he would not have come to the door so rashly.
When I arrived at the place where the carriage was parked last time, I parked it, carried my things and walked around to the front door and rang the doorbell.
Master Ding's house has three doors, and Li Xuewu looked for the front door.
Not to mention, most people really don’t have doorbells.
It’s not that I can’t afford it, but it’s that I can’t use it, because how many residents live in such a big yard now?
Although it's not unusual, it's not too much either.
After waiting for about half a minute, the doorbell came from the courtyard.
There is a rule here, that is, if you hear a knock on the door or a doorbell ringing, you cannot answer the door in the room, otherwise it would be impolite for the person outside the door not to hear you.
You have to go to the yard and answer the door, which is usually what Li Xuewu hears now: "Hey, here we come."
The host must open the door to welcome guests, step across the threshold and stand outside the door to greet the guests with thousands of greetings.
Of course, now we don't pay as much attention to the etiquette as before, but when we visit someone else's house, the host still has to come to the door to greet him.
Another thing is that no matter whether the door is really closed or ajar, there is absolutely no reason for the visiting guests to push the door open and come in.
If there is a doorbell, ring the doorbell. If there is no doorbell, knock on the door and knock the knocker with the monster in its mouth. Never push the door open when you see it is ajar. It is very rude.
Don’t you see how shabby those private courtyards in Nanluogu Lane in later generations have notices saying {Private Residences, Please Do Not Enter Unless Only} on their doors.
Another thing to remember is that the monster on the door has a name and a style. You can tell the status of the owner of the house by looking at the monster's style.
The monster on this door mainly consists of two parts. One is the base of the holding ring, which is called the auxiliary head. The remaining rings are very familiar. They are used to knock against the door to remind the owner that guests are visiting. The auxiliary head holding ring
The idiom also comes from this.
The images of the assistant chiefs are almost all based on legendary mythical beasts, including tigers, chilies, turtles, snakes, as well as the most common pictures of gluttonous beasts and peppers, and the lion's head with gaping eyes and open mouth.
In addition to the meaning of mythical beasts protecting the house, these auxiliary heads often also demonstrate the identity and status of the owner.
Just like the later generations of government officials ride Audi A6, business people drive BMWs, petty bourgeoisie people drive Mercedes-Benz, and those who love bathing drive Cadillacs, this is probably what it means.
Alas, the assistant chief of Master Ding's family now is Jiao Tu, which originated in the Han Dynasty and became popular in the Ming and Qing Dynasties.
This jiao picture is the ninth son in the legend of the Nine Sons of the Dragon, which is also the youngest son as the old saying goes.
Because of its solitary nature, its nests are usually closed and very exclusive of others.
Therefore, it was chosen by people to seek peace, and also because it looks ferocious and is the son of the Dragon God, so it also has the meaning of warding off evil spirits.
Li Xuewu looked at the patinated pepper pattern and door knocker on the door, and thought that he was really lucky that this house had survived so many turmoils in Forty-Nine City.
The door was opened halfway, revealing a round head, a small face, round eyes, and a very handsome young man.
Hey, I really do know Li Xuewu, or am I just surprised to see him here.
This kid was also very surprised when he saw Li Xuewu. He instinctively wanted to hide back, but he felt something was wrong when he stepped through the door.
This is not on the street, and this is not an intersection. What are you afraid of?
After finishing his mental construction, the round-headed young man grabbed the door with his hand, opened it halfway and asked Li Xuewu, "Who are you looking for?"
Li Xuewu squinted his eyes and stared at the boy in front of him for more than ten seconds. The boy was so stunned that he curled his lips and said, "Is that all you say? Go and call your adults."
Seeing that Li Xuewu was completely disdainful to talk to him, the boy was also very unconvinced and wanted to retort, but when he thought of the identity of the person in front of him, he retracted his head and ran into the courtyard to call someone.
.
The way of speaking in Sijiucheng is different from that in other places, and sometimes it is difficult to pronounce words. Later generations said that this is because the men in Sijiucheng are too lazy to speak.
When Li Xuewu said the sentence "Go and call your adults," not every word had the same pronunciation.
The word "go and call" is normally spoken, but when it comes to "you", the word is confused. If you don't listen carefully, you won't be able to tell whether it is said or not.
When it comes to the word "family master", there is an accent, which means that it is a noun, and it is the person who is the head of your family.
When it comes to the last word "Qu", the pronunciation becomes soft, and it is usually pronounced as "Qie".
If anyone understands it, you can give it a dubbing. This is a sign of Sijiucheng’s speaking. I’ll explain it this way.
Li Xuewu stood on the steps of Guangliang's gate with his fishing rod and rabbit in his hand, waiting at the same time as he looked at the difference between the gate and the courtyard where he lived.
In fact, the difference is quite big. The platform base is higher than that of the courtyard door of Li Xuewu's house. The doorway is wider and brighter. The door leaves are opened between the center pillars of the foyer. There is a bird stand under the eaves of the door. There are three clouds.
decoration.
This is normal, because this is the residence of a great scholar, and the gate to the courtyard of Li Xuewu's house is the common barbarian gate, which is between the pillars on the outer eaves.
Just as he was looking at it, Master Ding cupped his fists and raised his hands, saying sorry for being rude again. He opened both doors, stepped over the threshold and smiled at Li Xuewu and said, "I'm really sorry, I'm so rude, you've neglected my brother."
The things Li Xuewu was carrying in his hands were also taken over by the boy who just confronted him with a low eyebrow.
Then he handed Li Xuewu his hand and gave Master Ding a traditional hand-over-hand gift in return.
"Brother Ding, I'm here to return the fishing rod to you. The other thing is that I went up to the mountain a few days ago and got two rabbits for me to try."
Ding Wanqiu especially liked Li Xuewu's temperament. He gave off a tough and gangster air when he met him, and he looked like a forthright and friendly person.
"Hey, Brother Li, why are you so polite? Come on, let's chat in the house."
"Hahaha" Li Xuewu followed Ding Wanqiu as he walked into the courtyard. It was not the backyard, but the courtyard across the middle from the entrance. There was an enclosed flower hall in the middle of the courtyard.
After entering the house, Li Xuewu discovered that the room was really not small. The floor was paved with floor tiles, with two mats thrown in the middle and several chairs around it.
It's like a live scene.
Seeing Li Xuewu observing this room, Ding Wanqiu introduced sheepishly, "It's not that I'm rude, this is the only room in the whole yard that can do a lot of tricks, and it's the only one that burned down the earth dragon, so I brought you here."
