I make a living solving crimes.

Chang Wei didn't know that there were already flashes of swords and sabers in the central courtyard.

When he entered the room, Chang Da was sewing a quilt by the bed.

Winter in the north comes suddenly. Now it is September in the Gregorian calendar and he is still hot even wearing light clothes, but by the end of October he will have to wear cotton clothes.

The temperature in the 1950s was much lower than in later generations.

Cotton cannot be stuffed directly into the quilt. It needs to be fluffed up by a craftsman first, and then the oblique warp and weft cotton threads are used to fix the cotton to form a cotton batting.

There is no ready-made quilt cover for the quilt, so a piece of pure white cotton cloth that is one foot wider than the cotton batting on all four sides is placed underneath. The cotton batting is placed in the center and then covered with the quilt cover. The four sides of the wider white cloth are turned up to press down the quilt cover and then sewed carefully with needle and thread.

The bright red quilt cover with peony flowers is very cheerful.

"I took apart the old quilt and remade it into a mattress for you. The twenty kilograms of cotton you brought back were used to make a new quilt. Don't complain about the cold this winter." Chang Da said as she sewed.

Chang Wei sat down on the chaise longue and asked with a smile, "How heavy is this bed?"

"Five pounds. If it's any heavier, I'm afraid Xiao Man won't be able to bear it. By then, we can light the stove in the house so it won't be too cold."

"Okay, twenty kilograms is just enough for four beds. I'll try to get some more as a backup later."

Chang Da stood up to rest her waist, walked out of the bed and drank a sip of water, "Keep it if you get it. You have a car now. Mom said we should go back to visit during the National Day holiday."

"okay, I get it."

Chang Wei planned to go fishing for the next half month and catch a few thieves to improve his life.

Just catch the thief.

Maybe you can even give me some cotton as a reward?

If you really can't get it, you can only go to Deshengmen outside to find Li Laifu's friend at night.

"Where's your police uniform? Why didn't you bring it back? I'll wash it for you later."

"The car leaked oil today, and I got all over it when I was fixing it. I'll come back and the new girl will help me fix it."

Chang Da did not doubt it. She muttered "What a pity" and turned to the bed to continue sewing the quilt.

Chang Wei came out of the house and went to the small kitchen, threw down two pounds of pork belly and some loofah, cucumber, onion, pumpkin, and cabbage. He looked at the sizes of the fruits and vegetables and couldn't help but slap his head.

The black soil in the system is too fertile, and the things grown there seem to be mutated.

After thinking about it, he took out a watermelon weighing nearly 30 kilograms.

If you can't explain it, don't explain it.

You can't have delicious food and let everyone in the family go hungry.

Just as he was about to cook, he heard He Yuzhu shouting outside the yard. Chang Wei was afraid that this idiot would rush in, so he quickly wiped his hands and went out.

The two had not spoken to each other for a long time since the remittance slip incident. When they met occasionally, they would just look at each other. But when he saw Chang Wei, He Yuzhu acted as if nothing had happened. "Chang Wei, are you home?"

Facing such a jerk, Chang Wei didn't know what expression to use, and could only respond in a light tone: "Well, Brother Zhuzi, what's the matter?"

"Isn't Yu Shui coming home? I'm inviting them to dinner. I don't have many dishes at home, so I want to ask you to get some fish."

"What fish?"

"A crucian carp weighing a few pounds will do."

"Okay, I happen to have some at home, 40 cents a pound."

He Yuzhu was stunned, and after a long while he said, "Brother, we are from the same courtyard, and you still want money for a fish?"

"Brother Zhuzi, friendship is friendship, business is business. If you say you have nothing to eat today, I will treat you to a meal. I can even prepare five kilograms of fish. But you are treating me, right? It's not possible for you to treat me and I have to serve the dishes, right?"

He Yuzhu was speechless after hearing this. He patted his pocket and said, "Give me the fish first. I'll bring the money later. I don't have it with me now."

Chang Wei didn't care. He turned around and went into the house and caught a crucian carp weighing more than one kilogram from the pond.

He Yuzhu is a shady person, but he still has some integrity.

Looking at the old face with forehead wrinkles deeper than nasolabial folds, Chang Wei shook his head.

Yu Haitang......

That was a woman that even Xu Damao couldn't handle.

He Yuzhu returned to the middle courtyard holding the fish's gills with three fingers, and squatted under the eaves to kill it. Jia Zhangshi happened to meet him when she went out, and asked curiously, "Silly Zhu, where did you get this fish?"

He Yuzhu carefully poured the fish roe into the plate, scooped some water to wash the black film inside, and looked up and said, "Classmate Yushui is coming to our house for dinner. I bought it at Chang Wei's house."

"bought?"

"Well, 40 cents a pound."

"Isn't Chang Wei too ungentlemanly? He charges money for his fish?"

"I wanted to give it myself. Chang Wei is not stingy. I heard that he gave Sister Qin two kilograms of eggs when she was in confinement after giving birth."

He Yuzhu doesn't like Chang Wei because of Yi Zhonghai.

But he was just naive, not stupid. Chang Wei never took advantage of him. He gave all the 790 yuan that Yi Zhonghai paid to his sister, and even ate her meals for most of half a month.

Although the two of them had an unpleasant quarrel, He Yuzhu just disliked Chang Wei at most, but it was not a case of hatred.

Jia Zhang was really hated by everyone and everyone. Every time Qin Huairu got food from her, this old woman would eat the most delicious food.

The most important thing is that Qin Huairu is not allowed to say a word to him.

Sister Qin is such a good person, but it's a pity that she met such a rude and aggressive mother-in-law.

Jia Zhang was speechless, and after a long while she said with a sullen face, "They have separated from their brother and sister, so they should have been given double portions. Two kilograms of eggs are not enough for my family to eat for a month."

He Yuzhu stood up and said in surprise: "Did Banggeng eat all the eggs? They were given to Sister Qin during her confinement."

"It doesn't matter if a girl eats or not. She won't lack milk anyway." Jia Zhang said with a groan, and then she twisted her fat butt and walked into the house. "What do I have to say to you?"

"Mom, who are you arguing with again?"

Jia Dongxu lay on the bed. Qin Huairu always had to get up to feed him at night these days, which caused his sleep quality to drop sharply.

Jia Zhang grumbled angrily, "What are you arguing about? I said a few words to Sha Zhu, and that idiot ran to Chang Wei's house and bought a fish for 40 cents a pound."

Jia Dongxu turned over and said disdainfully: "Why bother with a fool like him? His father calls him Shazhu. But Chang Wei is really a piece of shit. He has the nerve to ask for money for a fish."

"That's what I said. Sha Zhu also said that the Chang family sent two kilograms of eggs. What's the big deal? The Chang siblings make money. One works in the Labor and Personnel Department and the other works as a police officer in the police station. They get such high salaries. The eggs were laid by the chickens raised by his family. It's not worth mentioning."

Jia Dongxu echoed, "Chang Wei is the worst in this courtyard. Last time I was arrested, they said I didn't need to pay a fine, but he still asked me to pay 30 yuan."

Jia Zhang's face was also full of resentment, and her eyes rolled around, "Didn't you talk about the wall at his house last time? Why don't you report it again?"

"My master wouldn't let me, saying that he has strong connections in the neighborhood office. Besides, our family was also investigated by the neighborhood office, so I thought I'd put this matter aside for now."

"He got away with it, this bastard." Jia Zhang became more and more angry as she spoke. She slammed the table and said angrily, "Is there no one in this courtyard who can control this little bastard?"

Jia Dongxu got up from the bed and said slowly, "Don't worry, Mom. Just wait and see how I'll deal with him after this."

Jia Zhang's eyes lit up, and her chubby old face trembled, "Have you thought of a solution? Son, you have to help me vent my anger."

Qin Huairu held Xiaodang in her arms and fed him milk. She listened to what the mother and son said, sighing in her heart. She wanted to persuade them but didn't dare to.

Is Chang Wei easy to mess with?
