On the wall of the backyard, a black and gray striped civet cat lay lazily, with a slender body and a fluffy tail that kept waving behind it, up and down.
At first, it was a little fussy because of the intrusion of a bunch of people. Maybe it was because there was no movement among the people below for a long time, and no one noticed it, so it lay down lazily again, with a pair of eyes. From time to time, I look at the birds flying past in the sky. The holes are sometimes narrow and sometimes round.
"Meow"
Hearing the meow of the cat on the wall, the deaf old lady's gray hair trembled, as if she had already guessed the arrival of these people outside. Answer.
Essentially, without all the halo in the play, the deaf old lady and the Jia Zhang family are actually no different. They love their lawless grandson. If the grandson gets into trouble, it must be the other person's fault.
It’s just that the deaf old lady is smarter.
This cleverness is different from that of Jia Zhang, a shrewish market woman who often collapses to the ground without leaving a trace of dignity. The cleverness of the deaf old lady is that she launched Yi Zhonghai as an agent, and only when he Only when you can't hold it back will you take action personally.
Just like the current situation, although Zhao Nanbei and the others said they came to greet him, all the strangers had empty hands. There was even a girl who came behind to see him off.
This girl looks like she has a perky butt, which is very fertile and suitable for his family pillar. If there weren't so many people around, the deaf old lady would have gone up to inquire.
Now, her feet are retracting involuntarily, preparing to retreat behind the threshold, using the height of the threshold to cover the only place where her identity may be exposed.
"Lou Family"
Hearing what Auntie said, Zhao Nanbei nodded thoughtfully. As a former major taxpayer in the jurisdiction, he had heard of it more or less. This echo came from Director Wang on the side.
She didn’t know much about the current situation in the jurisdiction, and she was frowning as she recalled it.
"The former chairman of the steel rolling mill, now a shareholder after the public-private partnership"
The old employee of the street office next to him saw Director Wang's confused look and took the initiative to help her answer the question Confuse.
Director Wang now had a look of understanding, not sure whether he really understood or pretended to understand.
"There's nothing wrong. The old lady went back. You guys, go to other places and don't waste your time here. I have no shortage of things here."
After that, the old lady He raised his legs covertly and put his feet into the threshold. He stared at the ground and was about to close the door when he opened his hands.
Unexpectedly, it’s okay that she didn’t move. Others really didn’t pay attention to her. They were all attracted by the news released by Auntie. Her movement really made Zhao Nanbei notice. Her shoes, cloth shoes with thousand-layer soles, were really different from ordinary people.
After looking at the width and length of Director Wang’s cloth shoes, and comparing them with the old lady’s, Zhao Nanbei’s face flashedSmile, this is the first time he relaxed after coming in.
"Old lady, don't worry, I'm here to inquire about something."
Seeing the old lady stumbling to close the door, Zhao Nanbei stepped forward and held on. He said to the deaf old lady with a smile on his face.
"I can't hear what you said, you go back."
The deaf old lady tried to close the door, expecting that no one outside could hold a person who was about to lie in a coffin. How about it, who knew that Zhao Nanbei's hand was pressing the door frame tightly. She was as strong as an old lady, but Zhao Nanbei, who had been a soldier, was stronger.
"I can't go back, old lady, we also have work requirements, you have to cooperate. This is not causing trouble to the government, this is helping the government solve the problem."
Follow the trend After squeezing into the house, Zhao Nanbei couldn't help but help the old lady's arm, and winked at the people outside the yard. If he didn't go through the door, how could he carry out the work.
The staff from various departments outside were also smart people. After receiving Zhao Nanbei's signal, they pushed open the door that Zhao Nanbei had just squeezed aside and entered the house one after another.
"Oh, the house has been messed up by you, and the old lady still needs to rest."
The deaf old lady did not look at Zhao Nanbei from beginning to end, and shook her head vigorously. Her face showed resistance. If Zhao Nanbei hadn't supported her arm, she might have picked up the crutch in her hand and driven her away.
Zhao Nanbei patted the deaf old lady's back, helped her to the chair, and half-pressed her to sit down. During this period, he glanced at the little feet that had shrunk under the chair again, and looked around the room. The furnishings inside.
On the right side of the door, there is a large maroon wooden bed, with the quilt on it half-opened, confirming that the old lady was indeed sleeping just now.
Behind the wooden bed, there are maroon bedside tables and dressing tables, drawers, and mirrors. There are also small wooden boxes placed on them. They look like they were made decades ago. The objects and flowers are all exquisitely crafted, and the copper handles have a green patina.
The old lady sat on a table and chair, which seemed to be used only by wealthy families. Although it was a little old and the paint was peeling off in some places, it was still so strong after so many years. The chair did not even squeak after being made. It didn't even make a sound, so most people probably wouldn't have a chance to use it.
In addition to these things, the large wardrobe, chest of drawers, and all kinds of furniture in the hall are very complete. Although they are much older, it can be seen that decades ago, it was possible to purchase such a complete set of furniture. Things, such a family, I am afraid it is really not that simple.
"This old lady's house is quite big, so there shouldn't be any problem living there."
Director Wang doesn't have such vicious eyes as Zhao Nanbei. At first glance, he just thinks the house is not small. , there are a lot of things in the house, so I used all the available space.
There is also a compartment on the left side of the group. In the compartment, there are several large wooden boxes. It looks like this.In terms of average living area, except for He Yuzhu's house, there are no houses in the whole yard that are as luxurious as the old lady's house.
"The back room is occupied by the female members of the family. It is equivalent to the master room. It must be bigger than other rooms. This old lady knows how to choose a place."
Seeing that Director Wang only cares about There was nothing visible in the large room. Zhao Nanbei said pointedly. Anyway, the old lady's ears were not working right now, so he just pretended that she couldn't hear.
"The Lou family is neither related nor related. This old lady has no family members working in the steel rolling mill. How come she was given this big room?"
After After Zhao Nanbei's reminder, Director Wang felt that something was wrong. He had been feeling an indescribable feeling just now and was wondering about it, but now he suddenly became enlightened.
Isn’t it? If it were true to what Auntie said just now, it would be okay for their family to be allocated the east wing, but for no reason, how could the largest room besides the main room of the main house be assigned to the old man? In the hands of my wife.
"I'm afraid it's not that simple. Didn't you notice that something is missing on the wall?"
Zhao Nanbei, who was pacing back and forth with his hands behind his back, didn't notice the old lady's face sliding across his face. With a complicated look on his face, he continued to remind Director Wang, and the smile on his face became even bigger.
"Yes, why are there no photos, Deputy District Chief Zhao?"
Director Wang looked stunned and looked at the surrounding walls. Indeed, the surrounding walls were empty. , not to mention the photos of her own family, not even the photos of the two commanders-in-chief. This is probably really different from ordinary families.
Ordinary people would either have pictures of their children and their families hanging on the wall, or the two commanders-in-chief, if they really didn’t have the money, at least they would find a corner to put the portraits of their deceased lovers, unlike her. The house looks like this, the walls are clean.
As the people came in, more and more doubts were uncovered. At this time, beads of sweat began to appear on the forehead of the deaf old lady. She could pretend to be deaf and dumb, but her body still raised questions about them. question and reacted instinctively.
"Young, why are there so many people?"
"Zhuzi, say less"
In front of the Moon Gate, He Yuzhu pushed a slightly He looked like he was borrowing a worn-out bicycle from nowhere, and was followed by Yi Zhonghai. No wonder he was able to rush back to the yard so quickly. It was expected that He Yuzhu was the one who drove him back in such a hurry.
"Everyone, I am the eldest son of the courtyard, and I have been supporting this deaf old lady."
Yi Zhonghai, who was following He Yuzhu just now, saw the backyard There were so many people gathered, wearing Chinese tunic suits, cadre uniforms, and military uniforms. The first reaction was that their report had received the attention of the superiors.
At this time, Yi Zhonghai had the head start. He forgot about being dismissed by the street office, and his thick and loud voice resounded through the backyard.
The second aunt was a little uncomfortable with seeing the two of them. When she heard what Yi Zhonghai said, her face darkened instantly. How long had she been a "first aunt"? When did she become Lao Yi? Mother-in-law.
"Thank you for your visit. I have caused you trouble. When I heard you came, I came back from the factory. If you have any questions, just ask me."
Squeezing open the moon door In front of the crowd of onlookers, Yi Zhonghai stood upright in front of the deaf old lady's door. Looking at the crowd, he saw the eyes of the people around him focused on him, but no one dared to stand up and accuse him. Yi Zhonghai looked slightly surprised. Raised his eyebrows.
"Great, this old lady, her ears don't work very well, and she answers all the questions wrongly. We just happen to have a lot of questions, so you come in first."
Director Wang probably didn't remember for a moment that Yi Zhonghai, who was standing here with a sanctimonious look on his face, had just been released. After all, half a year had passed and there were so many things going on every day. How could he keep remembering the name of a little person?
"I'm getting older, and I have good days and bad days. I've been to the hospital before, but the doctor didn't have any good solutions."
Yi Zhonghai came in without any timidity. On the contrary, he was a little excited. After today, he was still the steward in the courtyard, watched by so many departments.
In order to increase his credit, Lao Yi did not hesitate to put gold on his face. How could the old lady have been to the hospital because of such trivial things?
"Old lady, the government has come to verify your identity. Please tell them what you did back then."
After entering the house, Yi Zhonghai said Showing respect for the deaf old lady, he squatted on the ground, patted the back of the deaf old lady's dry hands, raised his head and looked into her cloudy eyes.
The crowd of spectators suddenly became quiet and watched this scene quietly. Zhao Nanbei put his hands behind his back and did not disturb the deep love between mother and son. He really wanted to hear what the old lady had to say, What if my judgment is wrong?
"Lao Yi, didn't you go to work? Why are you back?"
The old lady seemed not to hear Yi Zhonghai's words, touched Yi Zhonghai's head, and said slowly Asking yourself questions.
"Oh, old lady, didn't you say that you gave shoes to No. 8? The government came to ask if this happened."
Yi Zhonghai's A trace of embarrassment flashed across her face. Unexpectedly, the old lady's answer was wrong. Why is there something wrong with her ears at such an important time?
Seeing the anxious look on Yi Zhonghai's face, the deaf old lady seemed to have fallen into a drowsy state. She looked around at the people looking at her, yawned, and lowered her head slowly.
There is no way, now it is clear that these people are caused by her "godson". With so many people, what do you ask her, an old lady who has never been out of the capital, to say.
If it were revealed that he had given shoes to Route 8, these people would definitely investigate. If the old lady had really done this, she would have gone to the government to solve it 800 years ago. My eldest grandson's marriage problem has been delayed until now.
It’s not like she doesn’t know that the street office has a special department to deal with singles.Head of Gender Issues.
To this day, she regrets it deeply. If the Lou family hadn't said those words to her, how would she have remembered and made up this lie.
"Old lady, our Lou family has sent money to No. 8. They will definitely remember this kindness. Although your Tan family is also a famous family, you are the only one left now, old lady. Instead of living in such a big yard, it is better to sell it to the factory, and we will also provide housing for those workers."
In the blink of an eye, after so many years, Tan Liu, who was once lonely and helpless, has now become She became a deaf old lady, and the former Baylor Mansion has now become a home for the families of the steel rolling mill. Even the cook and his descendants have now become regular workers in the steel rolling mill.
History is like a cycle. After a few decades, He "Qing", the private chef raised in Tanzui's house, has become He "Jianguo".
Throughout the years, she just wanted to see her "good grandson", who was brought up by herself and had a simple and kind-hearted nature, get married as soon as possible. However, because of her "godson"'s ability to make decisions, the old things of the past were about to be forgotten. It was lifted out again.
If Yidulu settles all the old debts, let alone getting married, I'm afraid I won't even be able to see him.
"You said, old lady, you can't use your ears when they should be working. It's for your own good that someone else will confirm your identity."
"Zhuzi, don't be here "This is so long-winded"
Yi Zhonghai, whose face turned a little blue, seemed to have guessed something, otherwise this old lady who usually has good ears would pretend to be deaf and dumb at such an important time.
If the guess in his heart was correct, then it would be better for her not to speak at this time than to say something, so when he heard He Yuzhu's speech, he immediately reprimanded him.
