"Yes."

Fu Jingyou curved his lips and smiled.

The mood is subtle, just like when I got married.

By then he had his first home.

Now in Beijing, he has a second home.

People feel refreshed when happy events happen. Fu Jingyou felt happy and his expression softened.

The face that had always been tough and stern showed a bit of gentleness at this moment.

After buying another hoe and shovel, the two of them carried their things back to the courtyard.

There was a lot of dust in the house. Fu Jingyou went in to clean up the dirt and broken tiles, but did not let Lu Miao in.

Lu Miao didn't bother him. She put on cotton gloves and pulled down all the weeds within reach of the courtyard wall.

Then he picked up the hoe and began to hoe slowly from the corners.

The new hoe is easy to use and easy to use.

Lu Miao slowly tidied up, it was quite normal.

Fu Jingyou went in and out several times to pour tiles and praised her several times.

Lu Miao held the hoe handle and looked at him speechlessly:

"A few more compliments? Let me see what other words you can think of?"

Fu Jingyou grinned "haha" and went into the house to continue cleaning the tiles.

The small courtyard had been empty for a long time, and suddenly people came in and were busy working. Many people in the alley came to look at it.

Someone poked his head in to take a look, saw Lu Miao looking unfamiliar, and asked if he had just moved in.

Lu Miao was not good at chatting with her neighbors. When someone came over to ask, she would not only respond truthfully, but also smile.

During this period, a few old ladies came with their children. After looking around, they found the place too gray and gray and left again.

However, there was a little girl named Meizi who was sixteen or seventeen years old and stayed.

Meizi is very enthusiastic.

After watching at the door for a while, Xu noticed something from Lu Miao's unfamiliar posture when weeding. She entered the courtyard and directly picked up the shovel leaning against the wall to help her get started.

Lu Miao was a little confused when a person suddenly walked in, the kind who helped with work without saying a word.

"Hey, you..."

Mei Zi stopped and glanced at Lu Miao awkwardly.

There was a brief stalemate.

Lu Miao is really not good at receiving people who are too enthusiastic and familiar.

It would be fine if the other party had a purpose, but this was the first time they met, and she was really not sure what the other party's motives were.

Seeing that Lu Miao only looked at her and said nothing, Mei Zi buried her head and continued working.

"My surname is Luo, and I live in Xiaoyong Lane in the northwest corner... People in the alleys and courtyards call me Meizi."

"No one has lived in this yard for a long time. You can't get it here by yourself. Let me help you..."

As if she was afraid of being rejected, she added later:

"You are the new tenants, right? From now on, we will all be neighbors."

"Yes, my surname is Lu and my husband's surname is Fu. We used to live in Dongcheng."

At this time, buying and selling of real estate was not allowed, so Lu Miao had no explanation.

Lu Miao followed Mei Zi's words without any embarrassment, and said "thank you" in passing.

"this is nothing……"

Meizi shook his head, looked at Lu Miao and said:
"You don't look like you've been married at all. I originally wanted to call you sister, but now I'm going to call you sister-in-law."

This new resident in the alley looks very different.

The clean cotton clothes he wore were the same as those worn by many people on the street outside.

Long hair is also braided.

But his chin is pointed, his eyebrows are long and curved, his face is white and rosy, and his whole body is as clean as if it were covered with moonlight.

How to look decent.

No matter how you look at it, it looks good.

Compared with what they grew up in in the courtyard, it was really not the same at all.

"It doesn't matter what you call it."

Lu Miao smiled politely and looked at the plums. Mei Zi is thin and slender, with thick and long braids.

He looks a lot like Xiao Fuzi in the old movie Luo Tuo Xiangzi.

Her eyes are pure and clear, and she doesn't speak much.

Except for the initial greetings, he has been focusing on his work since then, and his hands and feet are diligent and very deft.

Although the first meeting was a bit embarrassing, Lu Miao had a pretty good impression of her.

Meizi didn't stay here long.

Before Fu Jingyou came out to pour tiles again, several calls with a Beijing accent came from the alley in the northwest corner.

Meizi became nervous, leaned the shovel back against the wall, and said hurriedly:

"Sister-in-law, I'm going back today! Your place is so big that you won't be able to clean it all in a while. When I have some free time tomorrow, I'll come and help you."

"Actually, no need...but thank you for today."

Meizi shook her head and ran quickly.

Monk Lu Miao was confused, and Fu Jingyou came out and said:
"What are you thinking about? Who was that just now?"

Lu Miao shook his head, "She said she was a very enthusiastic little girl who lived in a nearby alley..."

She didn't know anything else.

Fu Jingyou nodded clearly.

There are large courtyards and small courtyards nearby, and dozens of alleys.

There are no more than one small courtyard like the one they set out on one hand.

There are many residents in the Hutong courtyard. When they move here in the future, it will be very lively to get along with them.

At around two o'clock, Lu Yuanzheng drove back again.

He said that the matter of bricks and tiles has been taken care of, and someone will deliver it to the end of the alley tomorrow morning.

Lu Yuanzheng handed the approval note to Fu Jingyou, and asked Fu Jingyou to give the note to others when he handed it over tomorrow.

Fu Jingyou had estimated the number of bricks and tiles needed in advance, and said so in the car at that time.

On the note, it happened to be the maximum value he had estimated, which totaled ten yuan.

After going out and bringing the money, Fu Jingyou put the note away and handed the money to his father-in-law.

Lu Yuanzheng turned to look at him, and he was calm:

"Dad, take it. Miaomiao and I still have some money on hand. We will talk to you when we really need help."

Things like bricks and tiles consume my father-in-law's interpersonal relationships.

How can I ask my father-in-law to pay again?
One code equals another. If you don't distinguish clearly now, it will be difficult to ask again if you really need help in the future.

Lu Yuanzheng thought for a moment and understood the reason, so he took the money.

"Dad~"

Lu Miao blinked and stuck to it.

A few days ago, I was still stubborn and refused to call him "Dad", but now I am calling him "Dad" very intimately.

"Look at how messy this courtyard is. Brother You can clean it up by himself. How long will it take to clean it up? Please help me quickly!"

Lu Yuanzheng was speechless.

I'm thinking about why my little cotton-padded jacket is so considerate and keeps out the cold, while this guy's sleeves boast of letting in the cold wind?
Lu Miao laughed "hehe" twice, pretending not to see his speechless eyes, and handed him the hoe.

Little heartless.

Lu Yuanzheng cursed several times in his mind.

She couldn't bear to ask a girl to help with these tasks.

Lu Yuanzheng took off his formal Chinese tunic suit, rolled up his sleeves and called his son-in-law to join him.

The broken tiles in the house have been cleaned up, and Fu Jingyou also wiped the dust and moss on the wall with a broom.

The ash isn't as heavy as before, but it's still there.

Lu Miao went in and pointed out a few walls to be demolished, but was quickly kicked out.

Inside the house, the father-in-law and son-in-law looked at the location of the beams.

After confirming that it was not a load-bearing wall and that the demolition would not affect the structure of the house, it was officially dismantled.

After working for most of the day, the house was roughly cleaned up to a rough state.

As for the courtyard, Lu Miao was busy all afternoon and did nothing.

She can wipe dust and wash dishes, but she doesn't have much patience for other rough work. (End of chapter)
