"How many things have my family lost in the past few years? My mom has been looking for you a few times, but you've been perfunctory.”Yang Yi said. He had to lock the back courtyard door. It was not easy to get the backyard ready, and he did not want anyone to enter, especially now that Little Thief God had come out of seclusion.
"What's the point of talking about worthless things now? We're talking about you locking the door. Do you not trust your neighbors?”Yi Zhonghai changed the subject.
Just this? Yang Yi laughed." I can't find the things I lost in the past, and no one will admit it. But if I don't lock the door, will you, Yi Zhonghai, be the one to accompany me when things are lost in the future?”
"How is this possible? I didn't steal it." Yi Zhonghai slammed the table. If he agreed, how much money would he have to pay in the future? "We'll just have a meeting to discuss it.”
"Have you lost anything before?" Yang Yi asked the other residents.
"I often lose things."
"I lost it at home too."
～～
～～
"According to the law, if you know that the thief is hiding something and you don't report it, you're covering up for the criminal.”
"Did you find the thing when the conference was held?" Yang Yi asked. I think you, Yi Zhonghai, know very well who the thief is. Do you want everyone to help you cover up for the thief?”
Everyone shook their heads.
"If the thing is lost, there's no use in holding a meeting. If the thing can't be found, then there's no way to know.”Yang Yi looked at Yi Zhonghai." Yi Zhonghai, you didn't allow me to lock the door. You're not responsible for losing things. Everyone doesn't lock the door, and you'll be responsible for compensating them if they lose something in the future?”
"This?" Yi Zhonghai's face turned red.
"You old man, do you have some misunderstanding about me? Do you think I'm a fool? Do you think I'll talk about morals with you?"
He looked at Shazhu and saw that the number one thug was like a quail, not daring to look at Yang Yi directly.
He picked up his teacup and left.
"It doesn't matter if the law doesn't prohibit it. In other words, the law doesn't say that you can't lock your own door.”Yang Yi also stood up and said.
There was a banyan tree as thick as a bowl near the wall in the middle of the courtyard. Yang Yi slapped it with his palm." By the way, let me warn you guys. The backyard belongs to my family. If there's nothing important, it's best not to enter the backyard casually. Otherwise, you'll be crippled for the rest of your life."”
Just as he entered the backyard, he heard a crack and the banyan tree broke in half.
Everyone was in a state of panic, especially Silly Zhu, who was glad that he did not provoke Yang Yi. His name was Silly Zhu, not Tie Zhu. His body was not that tough.
"The things belong to us. If we don't lock the door and lose them, someone won't be responsible.”
"Looks like I'll have to lock the door tomorrow."
"I'm going to buy a lock tomorrow.”
"Me too."
"Bring a good lock for my house too."

When they returned to the backyard, there were corpses lying on the recliner again. Tang Gu and Lu Xia were still awake. It was only past seven o'clock. The two of them were sitting with female workers. Lou Xiao'e had returned home after the meeting.
Yang Yi sighed. Silly Zhu had learned his lesson. He didn't jump out today, so he had no reason to beat him up. Today's meeting didn't serve as an example.
"What's wrong?" Lu Xia asked.
"Yi Zhonghai is a little annoying. If there's a chance in the future, clean it up properly." Yang Yi said.
"I don't care about this. You and the girl are getting married in a while. In the future, I don't care about the outside world. I'll just wait to take care of your children.”
Tang Gu's face turned red when he heard that. He hid in Lu Xia's arms and peeked at Yang Yi.
The two were childhood sweethearts. The closer it was to the wedding date, the more shy Tang Gu became.

The weather had been good for the past few days, and the temperature had risen quite a bit, allowing the renovation project in the backyard to smoothly come to an end.
After receiving the final payment, Marquis of Trash and the others cleaned up the trash. Yang Yi didn't even stay to eat. More than ten people had already left.
All the wooden buildings that needed to be repaired had been repaired. The missing roof tiles had been replaced with similar ones, and the doors and windows that needed to be painted had been painted.
The entire backyard looked brand new. The main room was a place for eating, and there was a square mahogany table in the middle. Yang Yi could not help but sigh at the craftsmanship of these people. He only gave a few pointers and this table was built.
The entire wooden table looked a little heavy, but it had a mechanism. Yang Yi touched it under the table, and the surface of the table spread out like a lotus flower. Then, it formed a round table. If one did not look carefully, one would not be able to see any gaps on the table. There was also a rotating disc on the round table.
Tang Gu was overjoyed to see this. He tried it several times in a row. He opened it and put it away, opened it and put it away.
His mother looked at the table and couldn't help but praise it.
In the future, there would be more people in the house.
When he looked up, he saw a crystal chandelier hanging above his head. After turning on the chandelier, it was dazzling even during the day. He could also adjust the gear and adjust the brightness.
There was a small table in the corner. He asked Yang Yi, but he smiled and did not say anything. Only Lu Xia had some guesses.
There was a small cubicle between the main hall and the bedroom. In the old society, it was only a few square meters where the servant girls slept with the bed. There was a couch, a coffee table, a sofa, and a small bookshelf beside the couch.
The western study was designed in an elegant style. A large tea table was placed in the southwest corner. There was a desk, a chair, and a sofa against the wall. The northern wall was made into a closet and bookshelf with some books on it.
There was still some empty space. Yang Yi placed a single bed that could be folded. When placed down, it was a bed. When put away, it was a wooden board against the wall, saving a lot of space. If she was tired from studying, she could rest for a while.
The bedroom on the east side was about 40 to 50 square meters in size and was divided into two pieces. The bedroom was outside, and the tattered bed that Hou Tao had bought took up a lot of space. The modern minimalist style cabinets did not seem so out of place.
The lights were set in a warm color. After all, the bedroom lights should not be too strong. Warm-colored lights would make it feel better, right?
He left some space in the hidden area. Yang Yi was prepared to make some heating units after he entered the rolling mill.
The dressing table and mirror were all set up.
Looking at the bedroom, Tang Gu couldn't help but roll on the bed. Then, he thought of something and stood at the side with a red smile.
If the bedroom decoration warmed Tang Gu's heart, then the design of the bathroom almost made her scream. There were many sandstorms in Beijing. It was easy to take a bath if the weather was not cold. If the weather was too cold, it would be inconvenient to take a bath.
In the bathroom, there was a white sink that was connected to the tap water. The small boiler in the kitchen had not been heated up yet. Otherwise, hot water would be available now.
Across the screen was the shower room. The floor was covered with anti-slip tiles, and there were a few platforms on the wall to support it. There were bathing utensils and brand new towels hanging on it.
Next to it was a porcelain white toilet bowl. There were already toilets in this era, but they were not as beautiful as the one Yang Yi took out. There was only one public toilet in the entire courtyard, so every time they went to the toilet, they would smell bad.
As they walked further in, they leaned against the wall and saw a wooden bathtub. It was big enough for two people to take a bath. There was a wooden board embedded in the wall, and when it opened, there was a tray. When they took a bath, they could put some snacks, drinks, and the like. There was a small window at the top for ventilation.
Hearing Yang Yi's introduction, Tang Gu couldn't help but stamp a medal on Yang Yi's head as a reward.
If it weren't for the fact that some parts of the cement hadn't fully solidified, Tang Gu would have been stuck in the bathtub by now.
She liked this bathroom very much. Tang Gu had not taken a bath since winter. Firstly, he did not have a bath ticket. Secondly, the water in the public bathroom was not very clean.
It would be more convenient to take a bath in the future. Lu Xia was full of praises for it. Wouldn't she be able to take a bath at home in the future? Which woman didn't like to be clean?
Pulling back the two women who were anxious to take a bath, Yang Yi brought them to the west wing room. There were only two rooms in the west wing room, one big and one small. The walls of the two rooms were broken through, and the small room was equipped with the same configuration as the main room's bathroom. However, because it was smaller in size, it was more compact. It still had what it should have. It had a fake mahogany sink, a wood-colored shower head, a bathtub for bathing, and a convenient toilet.
The large and small rooms were connected. The bedroom was located in the inner part of the large room. There was a large mahogany bed with a back, a dressing table, a makeup mirror, and a simple sofa. They were all the same as Yang Yi's room, but the style was different. The entrance and exit partition was a round door covered by a bead curtain. The outer part was a living room of several square meters with some furniture and a tea table.
After the three of them finished visiting the west wing, they came out and looked up. The courtyard in the backyard was divided into four parts by a cross-shaped pathway.
There was a fish pond in the northwest. There was a secret passage leading to the Jade River in the north. If you wanted to change the water, you could open the plug at the bottom of the pond. After the water was drained, you could just change it to new water. When the weather turned warmer next year, you could raise a few red carps.
A crabapple tree was planted next to the bath. The raggedy Marquis had run for half a day before finding this tree. It was already several years old. Lu Xia was the one who chose the tree species. When she heard that they were going to plant a tree, she suddenly thought of begonia.
The next spring, when this crabapple bloomed, the scenery would be even more beautiful.
There was only one grape planted on the east side, and it was also an old grape. Originally, the Marquis of Trash did not recommend planting it now, but Yang Yi strongly requested for it, so he found it.
Sure enough, after a few days, the grapes and crabapple had lost their vitality. Yang Yi used the river water in the space to water them once at night, and it actually had a miraculous effect. They quickly recovered their vitality and even sprouted some buds out of season.
Next to the grapes was a set of stone tables and stools. They were not old things. They were made from the stones of the rockery. Under the exquisite craftsmanship of the master, they looked simple and unadorned. In summer, they could enjoy the shade under the grape rack.
After circling around the courtyard, the raggedy Marquis found some unknown wildflowers from the mountain. As expected, they were tenacious and were still blooming with small purple flowers.
The kitchen in the east wing was the first to be completed. Tang Gu also liked this design. The stove was originally in the corner of the wall and did not need to be moved. A row of cabinets were installed on the wall to store bowls, chopsticks, food, and so on. The other empty areas were cleaned up and a platform of a few square meters was built. It was paved with smooth marble, making it much easier to clean. There was a vegetable sink in the middle. The tap water was directly installed in place, and the sewage was discharged into the Jade River through the sewage.
There was a metal cabinet in the opposite corner. According to Yang Yi's introduction, it was an oven that could be used to make cakes and desserts in the future.
This oven was from the space. There were also higher-tech ones, but it was not suitable for this era.
There was a small boiler installed in the corner. It was unknown when it had been in stock. A large insulated water tank provided hot water for several rooms.
Although the boiler looked old on the outside, Yang Yi had deliberately made it old. The inside had been modified by Yang Yi so that it could heat water faster and have a larger storage capacity.
There was a floor-to-ceiling pool by the wall. If there were fish and prawns in the future, they could temporarily raise them if they could not finish them.
The small room next door was only slightly renovated. There was a bed, a closet by the wall, and two chairs. It could be used as a guest room.
There was also a small bathroom at the northwest corner of the courtyard wall. There was only a toilet and a shower for the guests.
After the three of them finished their tour, the sky gradually darkened. In winter, the sky darkened earlier. The few of them were satisfied.
