Chapter 53 The two old men who were meddling in the affairs

When Zhang Xingwang heard this, he thought the front yard was also fine, and he had to rent it first. These should be the two rooms where Yan Jiecheng and Yan Jiekuang lived.

Nowadays, there are many young people without houses. If you miss this opportunity, you will miss it. When my second sister gets married, I can let her live there first. It’s good to be close and take care of her.

Let’s not talk about whether Liu Juncai has rented a house or not, it’s still unclear whether my second sister and he can be together. And the distance between the two yards is just right, not too far or too close.

Listening to what Director Wang had just said, Zhang Xingwang was still unsure, so he quickly smiled and asked:

"The house in the front yard is also good. It's bustling with people coming and going. I like bustling places the most. Aunt Wang, you know that I spent too much time in bed before. Now it's so lively. Please rent it to me. When can you vacate the house, Aunt Wang?"

Director Wang raised his eyebrows when he heard this, pointed at Zhang Xingwang and cursed with a hidden smile:

"Don't just talk nonsense to your Aunt Wang. Go fishing when you have time. The last time you sent her that little bit of fish, it really hurt your Aunt."

"What are you saying? Have you ever heard that giving fish can harm people?"

"There are only so many fish and so many people here, how can we divide them? I finally managed to divide them up, and now you're silent again.

As for the rest of them who didn’t get any, I don’t know how they are framing me in private. That’s it, I didn’t even get a single fish scale.”

It seems that Director Wang is laying his cards on the table. His implicit meaning is that he should go fishing quickly.

However, Zhang Xingwang can also understand Director Wang’s difficulties. After all, there are so many people, and everyone is really in trouble.

Being able to share the fish last time was already a great skill. People didn't do it for themselves, but used it to do real things. Li Huaideqiang can't even catch up with him in this respect, let alone flattering the horses.

But according to Director Wang, that would take a lot of fish. If he really did that, by the time he was done catching all the fish, his cerebellum would probably be atrophied.

He is a good and energetic young man. He doesn't want to have a headache and yawn every day. That would be even worse than his previous work life.

He said helplessly to Director Wang:

"Auntie Wang, my ability is limited. You are in charge of such a large area. Even if I catch all the fish in Beihai Park, it won't be enough."

After he finished speaking, he paused and thought to himself, it seems that you can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a lamb. Moreover, now that he has the two houses in the front yard, he will have a plan for the two houses of the deaf old lady.

Anyway, it doesn't matter who you sell the prey to. At most, you will suffer a loss. He gritted his teeth secretly and said tentatively:

"I can't do anything with so many fish, but I heard that someone in the village secretly went up the mountain to hunt and caught a wild sheep. How about I talk to that person and see if I can exchange it for something from you."

Anyway, let's try it out first. Besides, there are guns everywhere in Longguo. Some villages even have cannons. There are a lot of people with gun licenses.

Director Wang trembled all over when he heard this, and immediately stood up, staring at Zhang Xinwang with shining eyes and said:

"You went hunting secretly in the mountains, why don't you catch one for Aunt Wang?"

"Well, if you say so, then so be it."

After replying, Director Wang, who was overjoyed, asked again:

"When can you catch him?"

"It's just one or two days, it's the house in the front yard, Aunt Wang, can you give it priority and speed up the process?"

After hearing this, Director Wang said with a smile:

"You are becoming more and more dishonest, and you are playing tricks on your Aunt Wang."

"How can that be possible? Didn't I just learn it too?"

Director Wang then told Zhang Xingwang about the two collapsed houses, which were originally located on the street and were allocated to a couple named Chang.

Some time ago, the man was transferred to Tianjin for work, and now his work has gradually stabilized.

The housing supply there was not too tight, so he could arrange a house for her. He wrote a letter to his wife, hoping to bring her over.

Yesterday, he came here in a hurry with the letter and went to the street office to go through the formalities, so no one in the courtyard knew about it. It was a good opportunity for Zhang Xingwang to get a free pass.

After the chat, Zhang Xingwang asked about Liu Junming's whereabouts and was about to leave. During this time, a clerk came over and told Director Wang that he had not found any notice about Luo Zhenghao.

Zhang Xingwang had just walked to the door when he heard Director Wang asking quietly behind him:

"Prosperous? Can you catch just one?"

Turning to look at Director Wang who looked unwilling, he said with shame:

"Just one. You know I only have a little talent for fishing. I used to lie in bed every day. How could I have the ability to hunt?"

"Even though you lie in bed every day, you can still fish, right? These are two upside-down rooms. Besides, if you learn more, Aunt Wang thinks you must have a talent for hunting."

"Auntie Wang, please believe me. My hunting talent is really average."

Afterwards, under Director Wang's reluctant gaze and his words, "The weather will soon be cold, and it will be hard to catch fish. Learn more about hunting," he ran away quickly.

It is said that Liu Xingming went to an alley not far away to investigate the living conditions of the martyrs' families. After knowing the place, Zhang Xingwang went straight to find him. After all, this matter should be dealt with sooner rather than later.

When I was almost at the entrance of the alley, I saw a young man riding a bicycle walking out, so I asked him casually if he had seen clerk Liu Junming.

The young man was a little surprised after hearing this. He stopped his bicycle, looked down at his pants, and responded:

"That's me. What do you want from me?"

"I am Zhang Pandi's younger brother, Zhang Xingwang"

"No wonder you look familiar."

After listening to this, Liu Junming scratched his head and responded immediately.

Looking at Liu Junming in front of him, he is estimated to be about 178 cm tall, with a thin figure, and looks fair and handsome.

Cleared his throat and asked:

"Have you ever dated my second sister?"

"Have you talked about it? You can also understand it as we are talking about it."

No wonder he looked a little embarrassed, it turned out that this guy probably thought that the second sister was angry with him.

"Then why haven't I heard my second sister say that?"

"Didn't she tell you? There's no reason."

This guy is a chatterbox. After responding, he couldn't stop talking and told the story of the two people from his perspective.

It was just that the first encounter between the two people was briefly described in a Spring and Autumn style, which was roughly the same as what the fourth sister said. It seems that the fourth sister's academic master attribute is really not covered up.

Just looking at his talkative nature and imagining the scene of him and my second sister together, I find it funny.

Originally Liu Junming had some concerns, but when he saw how seriously Zhang Xingwang was listening and thought of his brother-subduing nature, he told him everything, including his family affairs, that he could and could not say.

After hearing the end, Zhang Xingwang finally understood why this guy hadn't come to see his second sister recently. He thought that after he had mended his pants, his second sister would forgive him.

Later, I didn't go to look for my second sister because she had a job and our family life was better.

His application for renting a house was rejected by the street office, saying that he had to live in a dormitory first and would be able to get a house after he got married. He recently started asking people to look for connections everywhere.

Originally, after seeing that the Zhang family's life was improving, the family gradually relaxed. But when Liu Junming came back and mentioned the house issue, the old couple became nervous.

The Zhang family was living better and better, and the old couple felt embarrassed. They had thought that at most they would admit their mistakes to their second sister and admit it for the sake of their son.

They didn't have much hope of renting a house. At worst, they could just live in the dormitory after they got married. There were many couples living in dormitories, so it wasn't unusual.

But now the woman has a job and the man doesn’t even have a house to marry, so he feels a little hesitant to marry above his station.

Moreover, she felt that the two of them had "badly treated" her second sister before, so this marriage would probably not be possible. So she backed off again and did not agree to the two of them being together.

All I can say is that the old couple are a bit worldly-wise, and coupled with the fact that everything is unpredictable, things that could have been left to nature and made everyone happy became increasingly complicated after they got involved.

A few days ago, Liu Junming stopped his second sister when she was getting off work and said that his parents had agreed. Wait for him and he will find a way to find a house.

But the second sister just replied:

"Then go ahead and look for it."

When Liu Juncai heard this, he thought about the "current situation" analyzed by his parents and his embarrassing situation of not being able to rent a house, and then he pushed his bicycle and ran away without looking back. His second sister called out to him a few times but he didn't turn back either.

When Zhang Xingwang came today, he thought he was here to call him to task and inquire about the house, so he showed up, scratching his head and looking guilty.

When Zhang Xingwang heard this, he thought, well, Zhang Hongniang would have to be forced to do business once again. He said, "Just wait for my belief," and ignored Liu Junming who was still chattering behind him, and turned around to go home.

I thought about asking my second sister again when I go back. If it doesn't work, I'll just break up and see what she says. After all, it's a major event in her life.
