The room was very quiet. Yi Guoqu casually looked around.
Other than the eight square table where the three of them were sitting, the furniture here was very simple.
On the south side of the house was a bed that was not very big. The plaid mattress was very flat, and there were two quilts with flower spots on the inside. It looked a little old-fashioned, but most of the cloth at this time was like this.
There was a large yellow-brown wardrobe next to it. The outer layer of the wardrobe was not painted either. It had only been baked by fire at that time. Perhaps it had been a few years, but the surface of the wardrobe was a little dull. However, it looked quite smooth, and the water-like wooden texture was very clear.
Further north were two wooden sofas and a small wooden table in the middle.
There was also a rusty stove at the door. It was obvious that it had been around for some time. The weather was not cold now, so it had not started burning yet.
The northernmost cabinet was a wooden cabinet that was 1.8 meters tall. The lower cabinet had two diamond-shaped cabinet handles. The upper cabinet was a little narrower sideways. The cabinet was open and was now blocked by a piece of navy blue cloth. There was a faint smell of meat. Could there be intestines inside?
The room was very simple. It could even be said to be poor.
Perhaps this was not bad for people nowadays, but it was definitely very simple for Yi Guoqu. When he was young, his house was much better than this. At that time, there was a 20-inch black and white television.
However, after looking around carefully, Yi Guoqu felt like he was at home, and his heart was much more at ease.
"National canal." Yi Zhonghai thought for a long time before he called out.
"Sir, please speak." Yi Guoqu's voice echoed in the house.
Yi Zhonghai nodded and said," Now that you're in the city, you can't live like in the village. You have to have some skills and use your brain more.”
"Sir, don't worry. There's nothing wrong with my brain right now. I can do whatever you arrange!”Yi Guoqu replied seriously.
Yi Zhonghai nodded again. There was no sign of agreement or doubt on his face.
"I'll ask around these few days and try to get you to work at the rolling mill. I can teach you well here. As long as you learn well, there won't be any problem!”
Even though he said that, Yi Zhonghai was still a little uncertain. Fitter work was a technical job. There were so many people, but there were not many fitter workers above level six. He was really not sure if Yi Guoqu could do it well.
However, since they were both learning craftsmanship, he still wanted Yi Guoqu to try it out in the factory. After all, this was the most promising profession with him teaching.
If it didn't work, he could only find Yi Guoqu a job that relied solely on his strength.
"I'll listen to you!" Yi Guoqu grinned and said loudly.
Yi Zhonghai massaged his temples. He looked like a well-behaved boy. He was happy to see him, but he could not get used to his voice.
Yi Zhonghai stood up and walked to Yi Guoqu's side. He patted his shoulder so hard that his hand hurt.
He smiled brightly." I don't know how you grew up. Why are you so big?”
Yi Guoqu chuckled. He was very proud in his heart. Having a good body was better than anything else, but his expression looked a little shy.
Yi Zhonghai turned to an auntie and said," Go and get Guoqu to cut his hair. Don't we still have some cloth tickets at home?" I'll pull some cloth and make him some clothes. He's already an adult, so he has to pay attention to his image. I'll go deal with the house.”
A middle-aged woman nodded and replied," Alright, I'll bring Guoqu out for a walk later. But where are you going to get a house?”
Yi Zhonghai confidently tugged at the corner of his coat and then smoothed it twice." You don't have to worry about that. You'll know when you come back!”
With that, Yi Zhonghai walked out valiantly, his back much straighter than before.
"Sir, thank you!" Yi Guoqu opened his mouth and shouted outside.
Yi Zhonghai didn't even turn his head. He just turned his body and waved his hand.
"How dare you!" A middle-aged woman rolled her eyes and then said to Yi Guoqu with a kind expression," Wait for the middle-aged woman to take some money. We'll go to the supply and marketing cooperative on the street to buy something." Since it's your first day here, I'll make you something delicious.”
Yi Guoqu recalled the twenty big buns he had just eaten. How could he not know how much he could eat? It was enough to satisfy his craving once.
Hence, he said softly," Auntie, it's fine as long as you're full. I have a big appetite, so there's no need to spend so much money.”
"You child, what are you spending money on? Just wait and see!”
After saying that, an auntie did not shy away from taking money from the big wardrobe at the end of the bed.
Yi Guoqu did not look over. The money was saved by the old couple. He wanted to earn some money himself so that he would not become a burden to the System and could not keep eating the System.
The most important thing was to marry a wife. With such a slow pace of life and no entertainment activities, he would definitely not be single in this life!
A middle-aged woman drew ten yuan and took some food stamps, cloth stamps, and meat stamps. When she closed the closet, she paused and looked down at the tickets in her hand. Then, she took more.
Turning around, a middle-aged woman suddenly smiled. Yi Guoqu was frowning at the east wall. This appearance was somewhat similar to Yi Zhonghai's earlier appearance.
"Child, what are you thinking about? He was frowning. Don't worry, since you're here, I'll definitely settle you down. As long as you work hard after you go to work, our family's life will be better and better!”a middle-aged woman said kindly.
Yi Guoqu immediately came back to his senses and did not hide anything. He said with some embarrassment," I'm calculating how much money I can earn a month to support myself. I also want to earn money to marry a wife.”
A middle-aged woman chuckled and was happy for his progress. She comforted him," There's no rush. Let's take it step by step and get the things in front of us done first. Come, stand up and I'll measure you. I'll know when we go out to buy cloth."”
Yi Guoqu nodded and stood up. At the same time, he opened his arms.
On the other side, an auntie took a small cloth ruler and passed it through his waist. As the small cloth ruler tightened, she smiled and said," You look quite strong. You're not as fat as I thought. You have a waist of 2.7 feet. Come and straighten your arms."”
Yi Guoqu grinned. He didn't know anything about making clothes. He just needed to cooperate. He felt warm in his heart as he watched the auntie continuously gesture on his body and tiptoe from time to time.
