The army green jeep slowly drove into Nanluogu Alley in the Dongcheng Area of Sijiu City. Li Ang, who was sitting in the back seat of the car, looked out the window at the street with a complicated expression.
How could it not be complicated? If he had a choice, he really did not want to go to that courtyard house full of beasts.
But there was nothing he could do. After transmigrating, his only family member lived there, and he was a lonely old man.
In addition, Li Ang had lost his memory. He did not know what the higher-ups were thinking, but he had also changed his profession when he was discharged.
It was reasonable for him to come to the courtyard house.
However, the army did not treat Li Ang badly. There was a recovery fee, a settlement allowance, and an unnamed fee that was mostly related to his previous injuries. It was more than 5000 yuan, and there was also a pile of tickets.
One had to know that in the 1980s, no, even in the early and mid 1990s, a 10,000 yuan household was an impressive identity.
Li Ang had become half a millionaire in 1965. He could definitely be considered rich!
For example, He Yuzhu had just become a master chef in the canteen of the rolling mill and had his salary raised to 37.5 yuan a month.
It was only 45 yuan in a year, which meant that he had to save for 11 years without eating, drinking, or spending a single cent!
Of course, it was useless to have money. In this era, the supply of materials was based on tickets and certificates.
No matter how rich you were, you could only buy things that didn't require a ticket. Otherwise, you could go to Pigeon City, which was the black market, and spend money to buy tickets. Otherwise, there were very few things you could buy!
"Forget it, I'll take it one step at a time. At most, I'll just find a house to live in.”
While Li Ang was thinking, the jeep slowly stopped at the gate of the courtyard house. The big shot's secretary, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, turned around and saw that a certain someone's eyes were a little dull. A trace of pity flashed across his eyes.
"Platoon Leader Li, you can take the certificate I gave you tomorrow and report to the human resources department of the rolling mill.”
"If you recover your memory, or if you encounter something difficult to resolve, you can call the number I left behind.”
Li Ang, who had been called back to his senses, looked at him and a grateful smile appeared on his handsome face.
"Thank you, thank you!"
"You're a hero, there's no need to be so polite.”The secretary smiled and shook his head." Let's go. The old lady might be anxious from waiting."”
"Alright!" After saying that, Li Ang pushed open the car door and got out.
The big boss's secretary got out of the car as well. While Li Ang was looking at the door of the courtyard house, he took out two bags from the small trunk.
"Let's go. There's plenty of time to watch later.”The secretary patted him on the shoulder and walked towards the courtyard house.
"That's true." Li Ang smiled and followed.
Jeeps were rare goods at this time. The car had only stopped at the entrance of the courtyard for a while when many neighbors who did not work surrounded it.
"This is a military car. Who in the academy has such connections?”
"Haven't you heard? The old lady has found a relative. She said that he's her grandnephew. He's in the army and is even a cadre!”
"Yes, yes, yes. I heard that too. He's a war hero!”
"War hero? But the two of them looked young.”
"So what if you're young? Age doesn't matter if you have ambition.”
"Maybe he joined the army earlier. I remember that he could join the army when he was fifteen or sixteen years old.”
"That makes sense, but the old lady must be very happy now.”
"How can she not be beautiful? Someone has taken care of her in her old age.”
……
While the neighbors were discussing, Li Ang followed the secretary into the courtyard house.
The courtyard was huge and filled with the aura of history.
There were also piles of briquettes, firewood, and other miscellaneous items in the corners and corridors, adding a lot of smoke to the courtyard.
" Cough cough…" Li Ang choked on the smoke.
At a glance, someone had lit a stove in the courtyard and was smoking. How could there not be smoke?
"Hey, isn't this Little Li?" A middle-aged woman had just returned with a pot of water from the faucet in the middle courtyard. She was about to sit on the coal stove when she saw Li Ang and the other woman. She immediately smiled in surprise.
"Hello, Aunt Yi. Is my great-aunt in?”Li Ang asked with a smile.
"Yes! Yes! Wait for me." A middle-aged woman put the kettle on her stove and wiped her hands on her apron." Let's go. The old lady has been talking about you for the past few days. She must be happy to see you."”
Under the lead of an auntie, Li Ang and the boss 'secretary passed through one courtyard after another.
Although this courtyard house didn't look big in the original plot, it actually housed more than 20 families with more than a hundred people.
According to the calculation that a family needed at least one room, there would be more than 20 rooms.
Based on the layout of the courtyard, this courtyard was not only not small, but it was also at least a large courtyard with more than five entrances!
As she led the way, an auntie smiled and made introductions to the people in the courtyard who were not working.
Not long after, even the people outside the courtyard knew that the old lady's grandnephew, the war hero, had been discharged from the hospital!
The old lady lived in the backyard, which was the back room, a place for women to live.
"Old lady, look who's here!”Just as they entered the backyard, a middle-aged woman started shouting.
"Is my good grandson here?”The Deaf Old Lady's voice was filled with anticipation as she quickly appeared at the door.
"Grandaunt, it's me." Li Ang saw that the Deaf Old Lady was about to go down the steps and quickly rushed over to help her steady." Slow down. Don't fall."”
"I can't fall! I can't fall!" The Deaf Old Lady's face was filled with surprise." I've been walking on this road for decades. Even if I'm blind, I won't fall.”
"But you, my good grandson, have you completely recovered?”
"She's completely recovered. She's already been discharged.”Li Ang could feel the Deaf Old Lady's heartfelt happiness.
"Okay, okay, okay. It's good that you're discharged!" The deaf old lady patted her hands that were supporting her." In the future, you'll stay here with me. This will be your home. I asked Silly Zhu to help me clear some space for the past two days. Come, I'll show you.”
Li Ang looked apologetically at the boss 'secretary, who gave him an understanding smile.
After the two of them entered the house, Li Ang saw that the place that should have been the living room had been separated and a bed had been placed there.
The bedsheets and blankets on the bed were complete. Although they were obviously not new, they were clean.
"My good grandson, from now on, you can sleep here. Grandma will sleep in the back room.”The deaf old lady pointed at the bed." Grandma's place isn't big. Please feel wronged for a while. I'll talk to the streets later and get you a proper house.”
"In the future, after I leave, everything here will be yours.”
Upon hearing this, Li Ang felt a lump in his throat. He thought of his deceased grandmother again.
Li Ang remembered very clearly that his grandmother had told him a few places before she left. Later on, he found out that there was a lot of money hidden in these places, and it was all for him!
Not only was there money, but there were also all kinds of snacks. Some of the candies had already softened. It was obvious that they had been placed there for quite a long time.
Li Ang knew that his grandmother had prepared this for him. He had cried so miserably that no one could stop him!
