Chapter 154 [Jia Zhang led someone to block Liu Jiacheng's door
After a while, workers from the building materials market delivered some sand and red bricks as Liu Jiacheng ordered.
Seeing this... everyone in the compound was shocked again!
"What exactly does Liu Jiacheng want to do?"
“I don’t think you need sand and red bricks to paint a house, right?”
"Does he want to build another house in the compound?"
"..."
There was a lot of discussion, and finally everyone decided that Liu Jiacheng was most likely planning to build another house in the backyard, maybe to use it as a kitchen, or maybe to store his bicycle.
"He dares!"
"If Liu Jiacheng dares to do this, I will report it to the street office."
"The courtyard belongs to everyone, so why can Liu Jiacheng build another house?"
"That's right! If he dares to build a house, I will be the first to refuse."
"We are going to the backyard to find him now, and we want to build another house. What a wonderful idea!"
"..."
The more people talked, the more excited they became, and finally, at the instigation of Jia Zhang, they decided to go to the backyard to stop Liu Jiacheng.
A few years ago, Jia Zhang wanted to occupy the house that Liu Jiacheng had lived in for a few years, but failed and was eventually scolded by the street office.
Now Liu Jiacheng wants to build a separate house in the compound, and Jia Zhang is also angry.
Yan Bugui on the side listened to people talking about Liu Jiacheng's plan to build a house in the backyard. He originally planned to go to the building materials market to buy materials and build a house in the front yard himself.
But seeing the attitude of the other people in the compound, I immediately gave up.
"A bunch of jackasses!"
"What good will it do you just to report it?"
"Wouldn't it be better for everyone to build a house in the compound together?"
Yan Bugui shook his head and followed behind to watch the excitement.
Liu Haizhong, who happened to come out of the backyard and heard the discussion, also gathered around. He was not stopping Liu Jiacheng from building a house, but wanted to see if these people would make any big mistakes. He could just go to the street office to report it and let them know.
Comrades from the sub-district office saw his behavior after self-reflection.
…
"Liu Jiacheng, are you coming out?"
Jia Zhang took the lead in shouting in the courtyard.
This time, with the support of her neighbors in the compound, her courage and momentum grew.
Liu Jiacheng walked out of the room in tattered clothes, his body already stained dirty by white dust and cement.
Several people have worked together to separate the larger room into a kitchen and a bathroom. What they need to do now is to paint the walls white and gray.
"Jia Zhang, what's going on?"
Liu Jiacheng looked at Jia Zhang and the group of unkind neighbors next to them.
If he renovates his room, all these bastards will have a hand in it.
Damn enough!
"Liu Jiacheng, did you get approval from the street office when you built a house privately in the compound?" Jia Zhang asked.
"Did any of you dogs see me building a house in the backyard?"
"If you really think something is wrong, go to the street to handle it. If nothing happens, get out of here. Don't delay my work here."
Liu Jiacheng was also convinced. What were these beasts and dogs thinking?
How can these red bricks and sand build a house?
Not much more than building a toilet!
But having said that, he really wanted to build a separate bathroom in the room, but in this era, it was difficult to install toilets and sewers, so it was simply impossible.
Most importantly...the size of his room does not allow for the construction of an indoor bathroom.
"Don't make excuses here. If you dare to build a house in the backyard, we will ask the street office to demolish it for you and even arrest you." Mr. Jia Zhang glared at a pair of vicious triangular eyes. He looked at the whole compound the most.
What's surprising is that the Liu family's life is better than hers.
"Ms. Jia Zhang, you go wherever you like to make trouble. If you dare to mess around in front of my house again, believe it or not, I will slap you in the face." In Liu Jiacheng's impression, it has been a while since Mrs. Jia Zhang made such unreasonable troubles with him.
He thought that Mrs. Jia Zhang, the old lady, had changed her ways, but it turns out that she still eats shit.
When Mrs. Jia Zhang heard that Liu Jiacheng was going to slap her, she immediately became frightened.
In the past, she would have pointed her nose and scolded her, but Liu Jiacheng is now different from the past. He would really dare to take action. Liu Haizhong learned a painful lesson in the past few days.
Seeing that Jia Zhang didn't say anything, Liu Jiacheng went back to decorate the room, leaving Jia Zhang and others looking confused.
"You guys didn't have a great time chatting before, so why don't you talk now?"
"A bunch of heartless things!"
Jia Zhang felt very unhappy after being scolded, and poured out her anger on her neighbors.
"Mr. Jia Zhang, why do you say that about us?"
"Liu Jiacheng didn't say he would build a house in the backyard, so what else can we say."
"That's right! You are still here saying that we have no conscience. I think you are here to rely on your old age and sell yourself off."
"..."
The neighbors of the compound also pointed the finger at Jia and Zhang.
"Who do you think is relying on his old age to show off his old age?"
"That's you!"
"..."
Jia Zhang, who was already angry, started fighting with her neighbors in the compound.
Liu Jiacheng and Lou Xiao'e have long been accustomed to this kind of thing, but these friends who came to help rarely see such scenes.
Everyone is stupid!
This was their first time seeing someone as unreasonable and troublesome as Jia Zhang.
I thought it was outrageous when I thought Liu Jiacheng was going to build a house in the backyard, but I didn't expect that he would start fighting with his neighbors again.
…
Liu Jiacheng didn't pay attention to the quarrel in the compound at all.
Even if the quarrel results in human life, it has nothing to do with him!
He lifted the fir tree brought by Qi Liang off the tricycle, then took out his carpentry tools, first used a ruler to measure on the wooden board, and then used a pencil to draw marks...
Qi Liang watched for a long time and suddenly realized: "You...you want to make a tub for bathing?"
"Yes, fir is lightweight, durable and corrosion-resistant."
Old-fashioned bathtubs and footbaths are generally made of fir.
Liu Jiacheng asked Qi Liang to bring some wood to make such a bathtub.
It is definitely not easy to take a shower in this era. All he can do is a bathtub.
"No wonder you asked me to bring fir here."
Qi Liang squatted down and picked up the tools next to him and started to work on Liu Jiacheng.
When he felt the strange look, Qi Liang immediately said: "Why are you looking at me like this? I am also a carpenter after all."
"Almost forgot!"
Qi Liang: "..."
…
Throughout the morning, these workers worked hard to isolate the kitchen and bathroom, and painted all the walls of the two rooms with white gray.
The whole house looks brand new, and there is no longer the slightly dim feeling that it had after entering the room before.
"Master, do you still need to pave the floor with cement in this room?"
"But in that case, how can you stay here tonight?"
The cement will definitely not be completely solidified in an afternoon. If it is laid on the ground in the afternoon, there will definitely be a footprint when you step on it.
"Don't worry, I have already ordered a batch of marble floors in the building materials market."
Since he wants to decorate his room, Liu Jiacheng must want to get it done in one step.
"Good guy, how much money do you have? You even bought a marble floor."
Qi Liang and others felt envious again. The floors in ordinary homes were still made of dirt. Those with better conditions would be paved with a layer of red bricks. Those with cement floors were already very luxurious.
Liu Jiacheng went straight to the marble floor!
"As an eighth-level fitter, I must have some savings over the years." Liu Jiacheng said with a smile.
Qi Liang didn't know much about Liu Jiacheng's economic situation, but the workers at the steel rolling mill knew it very well.
Not to mention Liu Jiacheng's salary of more than 80 yuan a month, he was personally rewarded 300 yuan by the factory director when he repaired the rolling mill.
There is no problem buying these things in the building materials market!
"I invite everyone to go out to dinner together, and let's chat while eating."
