Shen Xiaoxia recalled what had happened in the past few months since she came to the Youth League Institute. The way things had unfolded was very different from the plot in the novel she knew.

She did not like He Tingyuan, did not pay attention to Su Xiuxiu, and did not follow Su Xiuxiu's instigation to cause trouble for Han Zhuxin.

Because Han Zhuxin was close to her, she didn't pay much attention to Su Xiuxiu. Su Xiuxiu's attempt to get close to Han Zhuxin didn't get any response, and the two of them were not familiar with each other now.

Han Zhuxin's relationship with her became better and better.

Zhao Lingling did not avoid them because of their emotional entanglements, and her relationship with them is becoming closer and closer.

Leaving aside the people in the front yard, the people in the back yard have been getting along very harmoniously for the past six months because they have no conflicts.

Everyone likes and is satisfied with the current way of getting along and the atmosphere, which is completely contrary to the bloody storm in the novel.

I wonder if the new arrival will change all this!

Zhao Lingling sighed and said, "I think we get along pretty well. I don't want to bring in new people. If they have good personalities and are easy to get along with, that's fine. But if they're troublesome, I'd find it annoying just thinking about it..."

Shen Xiaoxia comforted her, "Don't think too much. Who cares about his personality? We just need to live our own lives. We don't live in the same room anyway."

Han Zhu thought for a moment, then walked over to Shen Xiaoxia and asked Jiang Yan, "Can we make some changes to these houses?"

Shen Xiaoxia looked at her, not understanding what she meant. Jiang Yan also asked, "How do you want to change it?"

"The back of our house is empty, so I want to open a back door in the room, then build a yard at the back and build a kitchen in the yard.

This way, no matter how many people live in the yard, it will be convenient for us."

Shen Xiaoxia's eyes lit up when she heard this. "Yes, we can also build a storage room or something, where we can store food or firewood. This will be more convenient and more private."

If she really had a yard, it would be more convenient for her to cook for herself in the future.

After hearing this, the others were also moved and looked at Jiang Yan.

Jiang Yan looked at everyone's expressions and thought for a while. "That depends on the captain's opinion. If he says yes, then it's okay. If he says no, then there's no hope. I think you can go and ask and find a good excuse."

Shen Xiaoxia looked at him, "You are quite familiar with the captain, what do you think we can say to him that he will be more accepting of?"

Jiang Yan gave them some advice, "The captain likes wine, you can cater to his taste."

Hearing that he liked drinking, everyone looked at Hu Shixuan at the same time.

Hu Shixuan looked at the gazes that were all looking at him with a dark face, and said helplessly, "If you need it, go get it from me."

Then everyone discussed who would go and talk to the captain and how to say it.

After much discussion, no feasible argument was produced.

Jiang Yan watched them talking noisily together for a long time before sighing helplessly, "I'll go give it a try."

When everyone stopped discussing, they all looked at Jiang Yan. Shen Xiaoxia asked, "Isn't this a bit bad?"

After all, Jiang Yan was not from the Youth League Institute, so if he went to tell Shen Xiaoxia, she would be worried that it would have a bad influence on him.

Jiang Yan understood what Shen Xiaoxia meant. "Just because I'm not from the Youth Hostel, it's easier for me to talk to you. It's okay. I'll go and talk to you."

Han Zhuxin had figured out something about Jiang Yan over the past two days. Turning around, he patted Shen Xiaoxia on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Thank you, Comrade Jiang, for taking the trouble to make the trip."

Shen Xiaoxia was confused by the photo she took and glared at her in dissatisfaction.

Han Zhuxin looked at her and glanced at Jiang Yan with a little sympathy. She hasn't figured it out yet!

In the evening, Jiang Yan took two bottles of wine from Hu Shixuan's house and went to the captain's house.

When Jiang Yan arrived, the captain was sitting on the kang in the main hall, eating sunflower seeds. Seeing Jiang Yan come in with a glass of wine, he smiled and asked, "Why are you here, Yan?"

The team leader admires the young man Jiang Yan. He is young, has ideas, and knows how to behave. He will definitely have a great future.

Jiang Yan placed the wine he brought on the table on the kang, added two more packs of cigarettes, and said with a smile, "It's been a long time since I came to your place. This time I came to chat with you."

"You are usually very busy, so you wouldn't come to me for no reason. Tell me, what do you want from me?"

Jiang Yan briefly explained his purpose. The captain was puzzled, "Why are you the one bringing this up?"

"I have a good relationship with Hu Shixuan, and I know the others as well. They probably think that my relationship with my uncle is closer, so they asked me to ask."

The captain asked Jiang Yan, "What do you think?"

"Uncle, I think this is feasible. The surrounding area is within the deed of the house, and they pay for it themselves, so the village won't suffer any loss.

If they want to build it, they must find people to help in the village. It is the slack season now, everyone is not busy, and it can also help supplement the family income.

They also said that if they ever have the chance to return to the city, they would leave all that to the village and they wouldn’t charge any money.”

The captain thought for a while and felt that Jiang Yan's words made sense. "How about this, I'll go to the Youth League Home tomorrow and ask about the specific situation."

Seeing the captain's attitude, Jiang Yan knew that the matter was almost certain, so he didn't say anything more, changed the subject, and talked to the captain about other things.

It was almost time for dinner, and Jiang Yan stood up to say goodbye. The team leader asked Jiang Yan to have dinner at his house, but Jiang Yan declined with a smile and left.

The next morning, the team leader went to the Youth League Home to learn about the situation.

Because He Tingyuan and Xie Yunheng chose the main house, there was a large open space in the middle of the courtyard wall behind the main house and the back door. The two planned to leave a distance of more than one meter for people to pass through, and enclose the rest of the space to make a yard.

The two people's yards do not need to be separated, they can just be enclosed together.

There was open space behind the houses of other people, so they simply marked off their own space. Everyone knew their limits and did not go too far.

Shen Xiaoxia and Han Zhuxin's courtyards are adjacent, and the wall in the middle of the courtyard is shared, and its width is consistent with the width of the room.

The two planned to leave a 1.5-meter open space in the middle of the back door of the room and the kitchen, and seal off both sides of the open space. Half of the back space would be used as a kitchen and the other half as a storage room.

Keeping a little distance can ensure privacy and provide better light during the day.

The others copied their homework according to their standards, and Zhao Fan and Zhao Lingling's yards were also fenced together.

After making the plan, He Tingyuan went to the team leader's house again and asked the team leader to find some people in the village to help with the work in a few days.

Jiang Yan took Hu Shixuan and Zhao Fan to buy the necessary bricks, tiles, gravel and sand.

Everyone actually wants to use blue bricks, but building a courtyard is already very eye-catching, and using blue bricks would be too high-profile. Relatively speaking, earth bricks are much cheaper.

After discussion, everyone decided to use earth bricks.
