Siheyuan: I tied a stick and went to the countryside

Chapter 105 Gave Me Huang Bin's House
That morning Shi Xiaona got up before dawn, made flower rolls with ashes and prepared two lunch boxes.

They sent Huang Bin to the entrance of the village, Huang Bin said: "Go back, I will be back soon."

"Well, I'll wait for you." Shi Xiaona looked a bit disappointed, since she met Huang Bin on the way here, she has been taken care of by him.

It was so sudden that I couldn't see Huang Bin every day, and I felt very sad.

Huang Bin finally warned: "You can eat my share of grain openly, don't keep it for me, I will buy it when I come back, you see that even the skinny ones don't have two taels of meat."

"Stop talking nonsense." Shi Xiaona puffed her chest out and muttered, "I feel like I've gained weight recently."

"It's a little fatter, but it's not enough."

Huang Bin glanced at the two big white rabbits, but didn't look at them much. They were indeed fatter than when they first met last year, but they were still not plump enough.

"That's your ration, what will you do when I eat it?" Shi Xiaona asked.

At this time, the annual ration was 360 catties, of which only 1/3 of the fine grain was weighed together with the shell, and then the bran was removed after being ground into flour, and even less was made into flour.

The staple food is cornmeal.

But for a normal person, the annual ration should be about 800 catties, which is not enough at all, so they can only eat more wild vegetables, sweet potatoes and other foods.

Before Huang Bin left, he told Shi Xiaona that she could eat her own ration, so that she would not be hungry.

"Don't worry, I'll come back with some food stamps." Huang Bin said.

"Then I'll give you money as much as I've eaten." Shi Xiaona didn't want to take advantage of Huang Bin. At this time, relatives had to prepare their own food rations, or they had to give food stamps to eat at relatives' homes.

If not, the few catties of food in the family may be cut off at the end of the month, and people will starve to death.

Seeing that there was no one around, Huang Bin reached out and hugged Shi Xiaona into his arms, and comforted him, "Silly girl, isn't mine yours? Why do you have to distinguish it from me so clearly?"

Shi Xiaona was dumbfounded at first, and then pushed Huang Bin aggressively, and said shyly after parting: "You are a big villain, you know how to bully me."

Huang Bin suppressed a smile and said, "It's my fault, I'm leaving now, you have to take care."

Shi Xiaona blushed and said, "You should also be careful, pay attention to safety on the road."

Regarding being hugged by Huang Bin, I didn't say much anymore, I also wanted to give a hug, but I was too embarrassed to hug, I didn't expect to be hugged by Huang Bin before I left.

Huang Bin said: "You go back, watch out for dogs."

"You go first." Shi Xiaona said.

"Then let's leave at the same time, or we won't be able to leave this farewell." Huang Bin said.

Really reluctant to leave Shi Xiaona, but I still have important things to do, so I can only go back to the city first.

"This..." Shi Xiaona was startled when she saw Huang Bin opened his arms again, wanting to hug her, and then took a few steps back, only to see Huang Bin waving his hands with a smile and also retreating.

"Little rascal, hurry up."

Both of them backed away slowly until they couldn't see each other before turning their heads back.

Shi Xiaona muttered in a low voice: "Shi Xiaona, you're done, you fell in love with a big gangster."

Huang Bin left early, so he didn't let Master Zhou set up a car to take him off. After leaving Jinshantun, he threw the net bag directly into the space and walked lightly.

It took me an hour and a half to walk to Mashan Commune, and then I took a letter of introduction to buy a ticket to the county seat, and waited for half an hour before getting on the broken car.

I walked all the way to the county, bought a ticket and took a train to the provincial capital. It was still in the afternoon, and the train didn't leave until evening.

Huang Bin took a stroll around the train station and bought Northeast-style pastries such as Da Lieba, Luguo, Qiulin Red Sausage, etc. in the grocery store.

There was nothing to stroll around in the provincial capital, so Huang Bin stayed in the waiting room of the train station all afternoon, with free hot water supply, until it was time to board the train.

When he arrived in the car, he found that there were not many people in the empty car, so Huang Bin breathed a sigh of relief. It was the end of July, and when there were too many people in the car, it became very hot, and he had to spend three nights in it. It stinks to the back.

When I came here, I took a special train for students, and the train was full of classmates who were going to the countryside. This train was full of social people, a mixed bag of good and bad people, and there was not even a single acquaintance.

Fortunately, Huang Bin put all his things into the space, and only carried a messenger bag on his body, which contained a lunch box and a water bottle, so he was relaxed.

"Bang bang bang."

The speed of the train is really too slow, the top speed can only reach 40 kilometers per hour, no wonder there were railway guerrillas before liberation, they could pick up the train with bare hands.

It seems that the speed of the train will have to wait until the 90s, and the speed of the train will only be at this speed for the next 20 years.

Huang Bin was thinking boredly, at this time a young man walked from one end of the carriage with a bulging satchel on his body.

He walked very slowly, bowing his head from time to time to chat with the people on the seat, and when he was approaching him, Huang Bin realized that this person also had a star face.

Isn't that who?
Huang Bin was very surprised for a moment.

Soon the young man walked up to Huang Bin, lowered his head and asked, "Do you want eggs? They cost six cents each. They are all fresh, and there is sugar."

Huang Bin asked back: "How much do you have?"

The young man froze for a moment and said, "How much do you want?"

Huang Bin said: "Let's talk in the middle of the carriage."

The young man was a little apprehensive, probably because he wanted to report himself, he hesitated, and followed Huang Bin forward.

He had already cheered up his spirits, and ran away in the slightest accident.

Huang Bin was also a little surprised when he met this one, but he quickly figured it out. There can be movie series such as "Silly Spring", "Zhengyangmen", "Tianyu", and there is an extra "Chicken Feathers Flying to the Sky" No surprise there either.

Arriving at the position where the two carriages are connected, Huang Bin said: "I got on the train in a hurry, and I didn't have anything ready to eat. I'll take as many eggs as you have here."

Now that we have met, Huang Bin also wants to make friends with Chen Jianghe. Chen Jianghe is also a good businessman. Besides, Chen Jianghe's base is in the capital of small commodities. He also has a foothold for doing business in the future.

Chen Jianghe breathed a sigh of relief. Doing business with young people is the most worrying thing. Maybe he will report himself directly if he has a passion.

"I still have twenty hard-boiled eggs, can you finish them?"

"Okay, give me twenty." Huang Bin didn't bargain, and just handed over 1 yuan and 2 cents.

Chen Jianghe took the money, took out a hot egg from his satchel and handed it to Huang Bin.

Both money and goods are settled, and both parties are much more relaxed.

Huang Bin asked: "Your accent seems to be from the obligation side?"

"Yeah, I was obliged. I didn't expect you to recognize my accent." Chen Jianghe laughed.

At this time, transportation is inconvenient, and most people seldom leave the local area. At most, they can tell that they are not locals, and it is difficult to judge which area the other party has an accent.

Huang Bin asked with a smile: "I heard that you have a tradition of exchanging chicken feathers for sugar? Every household does this."

"You also know about the exchange of chicken feathers for sugar?" Chen Jianghe said happily, "Yes, we are all from the Sugar Gang."

"Don't get me wrong, we are not that kind of gang organization, but a business gang, and we are all engaged in the industry of exchanging chicken feathers for sugar."

"I know this. Some cook sugar at home, some take sugar out to exchange for chicken feathers, some arrange chicken feathers to make chicken feather blankets, and some help buy goods for exchange."

Huang Bin has also watched the TV series "Chicken Feather Flying to the Sky" before, and he is quite familiar with this chicken feather exchange for sugar.

"I didn't expect you to know all this." Chen Jianghe said happily, "You're right, we are engaged in this related industry over there, and I just went out to shake the rattle for sugar."

Huang Bin asked: "Then why are you selling eggs on this train?"

"Forget it, I lost my partner." Chen Jianghe sighed.

Chen Jianghe was stupefied by Luo Yuzhu's enthusiasm, panicked for a moment, didn't know how to face this feeling, coupled with his young age and ignorance, he turned around and ran away.

After I figured it out, I went back to look for Luo Yuzhu, but it was already empty, and there was nowhere to look for it.

Chen Jianghe was looking for Luo Yuzhu all over the world. What he didn't know was that Luo Yuzhu was also looking for Chen Jianghe all over the world at this time.

When Huang Bin watched this TV series, he complained very much, and he never provided specific information about the year. Right now, he doesn't know where Luo Yuzhu will stay, and whether he has married the railway maintenance worker.

Huang Bin said: "As long as you look for it sincerely, you should be able to find it soon."

The most uncomfortable thing about watching this TV series is that Luo Yuzhu married the maintenance worker against her will when she was forced to have no choice but to have no other way out, and even gave birth to a son for him.

I don't know why these directors like this kind of cuckold plot, insisting on letting the heroine marry someone who doesn't like it.

It's just that the address of the railway maintenance worker's residence was not explained above, and Huang Bin couldn't point Chen Jianghe to look for it.

"I believe I will be able to find it." Chen Jianghe said seriously.

Huang Bin asked, "Do you still have any sugar here?"

"Yes, you also know that our obligation is mainly to boil sugar. I tell you that the brown sugar of obligation is famous all over the world."

Chen Jianghe asked, "How much do you want?"

"I want as much as you bring." At this time, buying brown sugar is more difficult than buying meat. Sugar can be used to make explosives. It is a controlled material, and the usual allocation is very small. Now that we have encountered it, Huang Bin also bought it.

Chen Jianghe still had three and a half catties of brown sugar on his body, which was calculated at 1 yuan and 5 catties, and he sold all of them to Huang Bin.

Now Chen Jianghe sold all his belongings to Huang Bin, and he was fine.

Huang Bin said: "I think we hit it off right away, if we didn't sit down together and have a chat?"

"Okay."

The seats on the bus were empty, and many people randomly found an empty seat and sat down.

Chen Jianghe has been in business for so many years, and has traveled to many places. Huang Bin also has knowledge from his previous life, so he can talk about any topic.

Many times, Chen Jianghe was taken aback by what he said, and he was cited as a confidant.

Soon both of them were sleepy, and then fell asleep on the seat.

I don't know when the train suddenly shook, then sounded the whistle, and slowly slowed down.

Huang Bin stretched out his hand to check the time. It is now 7:28 am on July 3th.

All the sleeping people in the carriage woke up with a start, and they were at a loss for a while, not knowing what happened.

"Did the Maozi from the north come over?"

"No, you can't stop the train if there is a war?"

"It's hard to say, if there is a war, the train needs to give way to the soldiers first."

The entire Northeast has been preparing for war for decades, but I am afraid that one day the cavalry will go south and the torrent will come and occupy my mountains and rivers.

Chen Jianghe also woke up, and asked in surprise, "Why did I feel a shock just now?"

Huang Bin nodded: "I also felt it, maybe there was an earthquake somewhere."

"Earthquake? This is troublesome."

"Just for a while, but it's too far away from us, we shouldn't have anything to do here."

Although Huang Bin knew about this kind of natural disaster, he couldn't say it. Even if he said it, the superiors would not pay attention to it.

Huang Bin can only pray that they can escape this disaster.

After a while, a train attendant came to comfort him, saying that there might be a problem with the line, and he needed to slowly eliminate the problem on the rails before moving forward.

Just like that, the train stopped halfway, and Huang Bin was also sleepy. He comforted Chen Jianghe twice and continued to sleep soundly.

The train has been parked here until the morning and slowly started. At this time, I don't know what happened, but the track was not damaged.

Huang Bin and Chen Jianghe shared addresses with each other, and they arrived at the next provincial capital. Chen Jianghe said, "It's a pleasure to meet you, and I hope to have a chance to chat and drink tea together."

"There must be a chance. I hope you can find your wife as soon as possible." Huang Bin said with a smile.

"She's not my daughter-in-law." Chen Jianghe smiled shyly.

"Goodbye."

"Goodbye."

Seeing that Chen Jianghe didn't leave the station and got on another train directly, Huang Bin shook his head, wondering when he would find Luo Yuzhu.

At this time, there was news that it was not the Maozi from the north who came over, but that a major earthquake had occurred in a certain area, but the specific city was not known, and it was spread to seven or eight places.

This time, there were more people getting on the train, and the carriages were full. Because of the delay on the road, the three-day journey was delayed by one night. It would take 5 days and 4 nights to reach the capital from Heilongjiang Province. .

At this time, troubles continued in the courtyard. After the earthquake, everyone ran out of the house in single clothes, and several houses were cracked and uninhabitable.

Fortunately, some people have some wood stored in their homes, which can be used to build earthquake-resistant shelters in the yard.

Qin Huai found the old man in a dilemma: "What should I do if there is no wood here?"

"Where is the wood, I remember that Zhuzi got a batch of wood before?" Yi Zhonghai asked.

"It's not that I spent a lot of money recently. Not long ago, someone in the factory was getting married and was looking for old wood to make furniture. I asked Sha Zhu to sell it."

In 69, many people saved a batch of wood, and Shazhu got a batch at that time.Later it didn't work either.

Qin Huairu felt distressed because he spent a lot of money on stick stems. There happened to be a worker who wanted to buy wood, so Qin Huairu thought that he would not need it anyway, so he might as well sell it for money.

Unexpectedly, within a month, a major earthquake occurred, and there was no wood to build an earthquake-resistant shelter.

Yi Zhonghai was terribly annoyed, how could he rest without an earthquake shelter?
But Qin Huairu couldn't blame Qin Huairu for this matter. He had indeed spent a lot recently. Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth at Huang Bin.

It's all Huang Bin's fault. If he honestly went to the countryside for the stick, wouldn't the following series of things happen?

"Squeeze with others first, and then I will find a way." Yi Zhonghai could only arrange it like this.

Then he greeted Shazhu and said, "Come with me, let's take a look at all the houses in the courtyard to see if there is any damage."

"Why do you let me watch this? There are many things to do." Silly Zhu didn't want to go.

"Are you stupid or not at this time, you should stand up and set an example, so that people can remember that you helped others at a critical moment, and remember your kindness." Yi Zhonghai said by example.

As the grandpa of the courtyard house, I have to come out to condolences at this time and do some good deeds so that I can convince the public in the future.

Bringing Shazhu this time is to help him buy people's hearts.

At this time, the sky was also bright, Yi Zhonghai led the way, and Sha Zhu followed from the backyard to condolences, asking about the losses of each family, whether there were cracks on the walls, and whether the roof was damaged. Report to the neighborhood committee.

Some older houses had cracks and collapsed rooms. Yi Zhonghai recorded them one by one.

When I came to the front yard, I chatted with the third master Yan Bugui first, then started counting, and soon came to Huang Bin's house.

After seeing it, Shazhu said angrily: "This Huang is so lucky. The house is not damaged, and even the tiles are intact."

Yi Zhonghai said: "His house has been renovated once before, and it is relatively strong. I will write it down first. When the neighborhood committee goes to work, I will go to the neighborhood committee to see if I can repair those uninhabitable houses first."

Back in the middle court, Jia Zhang and Qin Huairu gathered together to discuss.

Yi Zhonghai first said: "Although our house is not damaged, there will still be aftershocks after the earthquake. It is too unsafe to live in a house."

Silly Zhu was a little worried: "Yes, the house cannot be lived in, but we don't have wood to build an earthquake-resistant shed."

At this time, the entire capital city experienced an earthquake. If you didn’t have it, you wouldn’t be able to buy wood anywhere. After all, every household needs to build an earthquake-resistant shed. Even if someone sells the wood, the price will be sky-high.

Qin Huai burst into tears with sorrow: "They all blame me for selling the wood, who would have thought that there would be an earthquake."

"I don't blame you for this matter, I blame that kid surnamed Huang. If it weren't for him, our family wouldn't be in such a difficult situation."

"It's that little bastard surnamed Huang who doesn't do personnel affairs. If it weren't for him, we wouldn't spend so much money."

After Jia Zhang said it, he couldn't understand his hatred, and cursed a few more words.

"What's the use of saying that, if you can't make wood, what should you do now?" Qin Huairu asked.

Jia Zhang cursed and cursed, suddenly rolled her eyes, and thought of a very good idea.

Said: "The man surnamed Huang is not at home. Let's take off his roof. Wouldn't there be wood?"

Yi Zhonghai and Shazhu were startled when they heard the words, the roof was lifted, there was indeed wood, but can this matter be done?

At that time, houses were built with beam heads made of wood, and the horizontal beams on top were not cement rods, but whole logs thicker than a wrist. A house needed 7 or 9 rods.

Huang Bin has three houses. If the roof is removed, there will be wood to use.

Yi Zhonghai hesitated and said, "Can this matter be accomplished? How will I explain it when the time comes?"

Mrs. Jia Zhang said: "There is nothing I can't explain. Anyway, the surname Huang is now jumping in the northeast. I don't know if the house has been damaged by the earthquake. We demolished it first and used it. It's not like selling his wood."

"That's right, that's right, I think that's a good idea." Qin Huairu said, "After the wave of the earthquake is over, let's return the wood to him. It will only take a while."

Sha Zhu also said: "I think it's okay, let's just say that the house was damaged by the earthquake, and then he can repair it himself."

Yi Zhonghai thought about it, now Huang Bin is thousands of miles away, and there is no one living in this house, so he is in a hurry and can't take care of too many problems.

At most, after the earthquake, return all the wood to him, so that it will only be used for a period of time. Anyway, Huang Bin doesn't know whether the house is good or bad after the earthquake.

"Okay, I think that's the way to go. I'll talk to Lao Yan and Li Liugen, and they all say that his house was damaged by the earthquake."

Silly Zhu said: "Grandpa, you go first. I'll find some tools. I demolished his house this morning and removed the wood. I'll build an anti-seismic shed this afternoon."

Immediately doing what he said, Shazhu rushed into the house to get tools such as an ax and a sledgehammer.

Yi Zhonghai came to the front yard and talked with Yan Bugui.

Yan Bugui smiled: "This matter is not easy!"

This is because Yan Pugui wanted to benefit, and Yi Zhonghai wanted to demolish the house without telling Huang Bin, so he asked Yan Pugui to testify that after the earthquake, Huang Bin's house became dangerous.

Yi Zhonghai smiled, took out five yuan from his pocket, handed it to Yan Bugui, and said, "How can you lose your benefits?"

Yan Bugui grinned and said, "The quality of Huang Bin's house is so poor, I didn't expect it to collapse after being shaken by the earthquake."

"That's right, it's because his house was too bad and it collapsed by itself." Yi Zhonghai and Yan Bugui looked at each other and laughed tacitly.

Yi Zhonghai comforted Yan Bugui, and then came to Li Liugen and informed him, "Liugen, the quality of Huang Bin's house is too bad, it was collapsed by the earthquake."

Li Liugen looked up at the intact Huang Bin's house, his heart was full of contempt, what did Yi Zhonghai want to do?
"Uncle Yi, why do you say that? Isn't this house nice?"

Yi Zhonghai didn't want to pay Li Liugen any more, but he still told the truth:
"Isn't everyone short of wood? Huang Bin is going to the countryside to jump in the queue. Who knows when he will come back? Let's borrow his wood first. Anyway, the house was destroyed by the earthquake."

Only then did Li Liugen know what Yi Zhonghai's plan was, and his eyes lit up. He didn't have any wood to build an earthquake-resistant shelter, so he could just use the wood from Huang Bin's house.

Nodded: "Yes, it was collapsed by the earthquake, but I have to give us a few to use, and I don't have any wood in my house."

Anyway, Huang Bin can't come back for a while, just borrow it, and return all the wood to Huang Bin in the future.

"No problem, there are more than 20 pieces of wood, enough for us."

Yi Zhonghai then told the other families that everyone in the front yard had been notified, and reached a consensus on the fact that Huang Bin's house was collapsed by the earthquake.

The house was destroyed by the earthquake.

After reaching this consensus, Shazhu moved a ladder to climb up to the roof, pulled off the tiles on the ground, opened the partition made of reeds, and then slid all the wood down.

In a blink of an eye, the roofs of the three houses disappeared, leaving only a few bare walls.

The furniture in the room didn't bother, it just stayed there.

Silly Zhu saw that the walls were intact, he hesitated and asked Yi Zhonghai: "Are you going to tear down a wall?"

"That's right, there is nothing wrong with the wall, and the roof won't fall down, smashing the gable in the middle."
