I messed up the Siheyuan

Yan Fugui nodded hesitantly, then said hesitantly: "Old Yi! ...

We didn't buy anything.

What's more, I'm living in someone else's house for free.

If you ask someone for hot water, will they give it to you?

"Hey!...It's okay!..."

Yi Zhonghai waved his hand indifferently.

"It really doesn't work..."

"I can just give him a pack of cigarettes, that's all!"

As he said this, he patted his bag.

“How many packs of cigarettes did I bring?

"Bring cigarettes?" Yan Fugui was stunned for a moment, and asked in confusion: "Lao Yi, why do you bring cigarettes?"

"What else can we do?" Hai Di replied with a smile: "This time we went to the countryside to help Qin Huairu transfer her household registration, so we must have asked others for help.

No matter what...

When it comes to the crucial moment, handing over a cigarette can make things easier, right? "

Yan Fugui paused for a moment, a trace of embarrassment on his face.

"Old Yi, you are really thoughtful!"

Lao Liu and I never thought of this step."

Having said that, he suddenly remembered something and his eyes lit up.

"That... Old Yi!..."

"Hmm!...What kind of cigarettes did you bring?"

"They're not good cigarettes!" Yi Zhonghai said nonchalantly, "Just three packs of Daqianmen."

"Wow!..." Yan Fugui exclaimed in surprise, "Daqianmen, isn't it a good cigarette?"

"That bag costs thirty or four cents?"

"You give someone a pack of cigarettes in exchange for a pot of hot water. Isn't that a big loss?"

"If we spend ten cents to buy a bucket of coal, how many kettles of hot water can we boil?"

"Well...give me the cigarette first."

"Don't worry!..."

"At most a few cigarettes, and I can get you a pot of hot water."

These words made Yi Zhonghai shake his head helplessly.

He knew full well…

Yan Fugui is trying to take advantage of the price difference and gain some benefits!

However, it was just a matter of a few cigarettes, so Yi Zhonghai didn't care too much about it.

and so…

After just a brief hesitation, he simply pulled out a pack of cigarettes from his bag and put it into Yan Fugui's hand.

"OK!…"

"Old Yan, you are the one who will ask for the hot water, right?"

After taking the cigarette from Yi Zhonghai, Yan Fugui not only smiled a little more, but also his legs and feet felt lighter.

Looking at his receding back, Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong looked at each other, smiled bitterly, and shook their heads together.

Not long after, Yan Fugui came back happily carrying a thermos bottle.

But there were six cigarettes missing from the pack he returned to Mediterranean.

Yi Zhonghai pinched the slightly shriveled cigarette box, just smiled, and put it in his pocket.

Did Yan Fugui secretly smoke one or two cigarettes in the middle?

He didn't care too much.

In fact! …

In the No. 95 compound, Yi Zhonghai would let Yan Fugui take advantage of him from time to time.

This was also a way for him to win over Yan Fugui.

It is precisely because of these small advantages that Yan Fugui cooperates with Yi Zhonghai on some matters in the hospital.

But Second Uncle Liu Haizhong doesn't need these small favors.

They have high salaries and don't look down on these things.

As for Liu Haizhong, Yi Zhonghai only needs to crush him with his IQ.

By making him look bad or behave well from time to time and letting people in the courtyard laugh at him, you can successfully undermine his prestige in the courtyard.

After striking a blow to Liu Haizhong and winning over Yan Fugui, the prestige and status of the uncle Yi Zhonghai were naturally highlighted.

After the three of them ate a few steamed buns with hot water, they returned to their rooms and lay down.

There was no bedding on the bed, so I could only lie on the hard bed board!

Because no one had lived in the house for a long time, there was some dust and it was also slightly damp.

This condition is not suitable for long-term rest at all.

But the three of them had no intention of staying for too long, so they could only make do with this.

Unfortunately, as soon as the three people leaned against the bed, deafening snoring sounds began to sound.

During this time, Lao Chen came over to take a look.

Listening to the trio symphony coming from the three rooms, Lao Chen laughed "Hehe!"

That's it! ...You're planning to leave right away...?

Let's go for a walk?

……

In the middle of the night, Liu Haizhong woke up because he was hungry.

He has a big belly!

What's more, the work I usually do is physical labor.

Therefore, the body's consumption is also great.

It was just after one o'clock in the afternoon, and the few steamed corn breads I had eaten had been completely digested by this time.

He was so hungry that he hurriedly turned on the light in the house, found his backpack, took out two steamed buns, and took a big bite of them.

After he finished two steamed buns and took a big gulp of boiled water, he let out a long sigh.

Only then did he raise his head and look outside through the window.

Then, he was confused!

"Ugh!... Why is it so dark now?..."

Then, he slapped his thigh hard again and yelled, "It's over! It's broken!"

After Liu Haizhong woke up Yi Zhonghai and Yan Fugui, the three of them looked at each other in confusion.

They looked at each other in silence.

After a while, Yan Fugui muttered with an annoyed look on his face:

"How...how did you oversleep?"

"Ouch!... What's going on?"

"Tomorrow...I'm going to be late for work."

As he said that, he looked at Yi Zhonghai and said hesitantly, "Old Yi...if it really doesn't work...let's go back tonight!

Wait... wait until next week and come back.

Anyway, we have slept for half a day and have had enough sleep."

Yi Zhonghai hesitated for a moment and shook his head slowly.

"Old Yan, it's pitch dark here and we don't have a flashlight.

What if you fall or get hit on the way?

That's like calling to the heavens, but the heavens don't respond; calling to the earth, but the earth doesn't respond!"

"This..." Yan Fugui said unwillingly: "Let's just be...careful and ride slower, isn't that enough?"

A hint of excitement appeared on Yi Zhonghai's face.

But soon, he shook his head again.

"Old Yan!... It's better not to take this risk!..."

"What if... we encounter a wolf on the way? That would be a big deal!"

"After all, the three of us are elderly people. How can we fight against wolves?"

"Old Yi!... It shouldn't be possible!" Yan Fugui was still unwilling to accept it, "This is the surrounding area of ​​​​Sijiu City.

How can it be so easy to run into a wolf? "

Yi Zhonghai's words just now didn't scare Yan Fugui, but it scared Liu Haizhong enough.

Therefore, as soon as Yan Fugui finished speaking, he shook his head and said, "Old Yan!... Don't be careless!

Don’t be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of what happens!

What should I do if I encounter this situation?

It is better to stay here and wait till dawn to talk about it!"
