The next day was the factory's rest day. As soon as he got up in the morning, Wang Jianjun realized that something was wrong. It was snowing.
It was the first snow since winter, and it was also the first time it snowed since Wang Jianjun's rebirth. He opened the door and looked outside.
It was snowing heavily. The snow on the ground was almost ten centimeters thick. It must have started snowing when he was asleep last night.
As the old saying goes, a good snow indicates a good harvest year. This is really a good sign. Wang Jianjun didn't care much about other aspects. He was now an inconspicuous small figure. He only hoped that this snow would bring good luck to his life next year.
After watching for a while, Wang Jianjun went back to the house to practice his boxing. The neighbors of the courtyard house were still asleep, so he didn't want to be complained about if he made a big noise.
After he finished practicing, his body started to heat up. He stopped, washed up, and went to make breakfast.
After breakfast, Wang Jianjun made himself a cup of hot tea. Then he quietly read the Go manual in his room. He had a feeling that his Go skills would be upgraded in a week at most.
It was the same for Bajiquan. At that time, not only would he be able to master two more skills, but he would also be able to obtain a lottery chance. It would be a huge harvest.
As for medical skills, he would have to wait. After all, the time he had to learn them was too short. Moreover, he did not have any foundation in the past. Now, he could not even get started.
After reading the chess manual for a while, Wang Jianjun's eyes were tired. He took his tools and went out to clean the snow at the door. He happened to see Third Uncle's family doing the same thing.
"Jianjun has also come out to sweep the snow. If you ask me, among the young people in our courtyard, you're the most diligent. I just walked around the middle court and the backyard, but I didn't see a single young man.”
Wang Jianjun was about to say hello, but before he could say anything, Third Uncle praised him. Although he knew that Third Uncle must have a purpose for doing this, Wang Jianjun was still a little embarrassed.
"Third Master, I don't dare to say that. It's not easy for the factory to have a day off. Naturally, everyone wants to rest for a while. It's just that I went to bed too early last night and can't sleep now.”
"Alright, Third Uncle knows that you're humble. By the way, I haven't congratulated you yet. You've officially become a second-level fitter. Your future days will be even easier.”
"Thank you, Third Uncle. I was lucky to meet a good master. No matter what questions I had, he could always patiently answer them for me. That's why I could improve so quickly.”
" I was just saying that you're being modest. Look, here you go again. If our Jie Cheng had half of your achievements, I would wake up laughing in my sleep. Sigh, what a pity. That guy is too disappointing.”
"Third Master, don't say that. I think my Brother Jiecheng hasn't found the trick yet. When he finds it, he will definitely be able to improve quickly.”
"I hope so."
…………
When the snow in the yard was almost cleared, Wang Jianjun found an excuse to go back. Third Uncle was really talkative.
If he didn't find an excuse to leave, he wouldn't be able to do anything this morning.
After putting down the tools, he first took a sip of tea and rested for a few minutes before taking out the medical code and continuing to read.
Soon, it was noon, and Wang Jianjun had already prepared lunch.
After lunch, he was not in a hurry to read. Instead, he planned to go to the vegetable market and buy more vegetables that could be stored well. In the future, he would not have to go to the vegetable market every day after work.
When he arrived at the market, he did not expect there to be so many people. It seemed that everyone had the idea of storing vegetables after the snow.
There were not many types of vegetables. Besides, Wang Jianjun was the only one eating at home. It was useless to buy more.
After a rough look, Wang Jianjun bought 50 catties of potatoes, cabbage, carrots, and green onions each. He didn't spend much in total.
In this era, one could support a family by working for a salary. Although the money was not much, the prices were really cheap.
As for the other green leafy vegetables, there was no need to think about it. They were not available in the market at all. Wang Jianjun was already used to it.
All the vegetables added up to two sacks. Wang Jianjun carried one on each shoulder and went home.
He did not expect that he would be seen by Third Uncle as soon as he entered the courtyard.
"Whoa, Jianjun, you've started stockpiling supplies for the winter so early?”
"No, Third Uncle. I just saw that I have time today. He might as well buy more. In the future, he would not have to go grocery shopping after work. He could go straight home. After all, it was difficult to walk on the road after the snow.”
"That's true. I didn't expect you to be so thoughtful at such a young age. I'll ask your third aunt to buy more later.”
"I won't talk to you anymore, Third Uncle. I'll go back first. It's quite tiring to carry these things.”
"Yes, yes, yes. Look at me. Why didn't I think of this problem? Hurry up and go back and put it down. Don't tire yourself out.”
He could finally go home. In fact, Wang Jianjun was not tired at all. With his physical fitness that was three times that of ordinary people, this weight was nothing to him. The reason why he shouted tired just now was that he deliberately showed it to Third Uncle.
Wang Jianjun had placed the vegetables in another room. This was now his private warehouse. Some of the items and tools that were not often used at home were placed there.
After finishing all these things, he could finally study in peace.
However, before he could look for long, he saw Xu Damao's parents walking out of the courtyard with a few workers carrying big and small bags.
Was he moving?
"Old Xu, you've really saved a lot of money over the years. This is already the second time, and you still have so much.”
"It's not like that, Third Uncle. Isn't my Damao getting married next week? I'll bring all these old furniture to my place and replace them with new ones. We can't still use these old furniture after getting married, right?”
"That's because your family has such conditions. How can ordinary people afford to change?”
"You must be joking. Alright, Third Uncle, I won't chat with you today. I'm in a hurry. Let's have a good gathering when Damao gets married next week.”
"Alright, then hurry up and get busy. We'll have a good drink next week.”
…………
Hearing the conversation between Third Uncle and Xu Damao's father, Wang Jianjun was sure that Xu Damao's parents were really moving out of the courtyard.
As for the reason, it was naturally to make room for Xu Damao and Lou Xiao'e.
Their house was originally a bigger suite. If Xu Damao was not married, he could still live there.
But now that they were getting married, it would be inconvenient for Old Xu and his wife to stay here.
At the same time, Wang Jianjun also knew that Xu Damao's wedding was next week.
He just didn't know what Silly Zhu would think when he heard this news. They were sworn enemies since they were young. Now that others were about to get married, there was still no progress on his side.
No matter how he thought about it, he felt miserable.
However, Xu Damao was really something. His parents had moved out today, but he didn't come back. She didn't know where he went to have fun.
A little later, Old Xu and his wife came back again. However, this time, there was no worker teacher with them, and they did not bring much. It seemed that they had come to wrap things up.
Throughout the whole process of moving, Wang Jianjun did not see any neighbors in the courtyard helping. He did not know if the old couple had offended everyone, or if they would rather spend money to hire outsiders than let the neighbors in the courtyard take advantage of them.
However, Wang Jianjun was more inclined to the latter.
Anyway, in Wang Jianjun's opinion, there was no simple character in this small courtyard house. Xu Damao's parents were definitely masters.
At the end of the original drama, the old couple's scheme of buying a house empty-handed could be said to be a perfect example of a self-inflicted injury.
…………
After dinner, the courtyard finally quieted down, and Wang Jianjun could read properly.
