Years: Salted Fish Life Since Going to the Countryside

Chapter 906 Han Ma's Good Luck

The houses in the city of Sijiu, whether they are the emperor's palace, the residence of nobles, the courtyard of princes and ministers, the mansion of wealthy merchants, or the small homes of ordinary people, all emphasize that the east is noble and the west is secondary.

The room on the east side of the main house (north house) is the upper room, and this upper room can only be lived in by the owner of the house or the most authoritative person in the family, and other people should not be considered.

The same is true for the east and west wing rooms in the courtyard. The east wing room has always been reserved for the eldest son to live in, which means that the person living here is the future owner of the house.

The west wing room is reserved for the second son or the eldest daughter to live in. No matter the second son or the eldest daughter, the person living in the west wing room can only be regarded as a guest, which means that they will leave here sooner or later.

If it is a larger courtyard, such as a large three-entry courtyard, the ear room of the east wing room (abbreviated as the east ear room) is generally used as a small kitchen, while the ear room of the west wing room can only be used as a toilet. This is the difference in treatment between east and west, and between the main and the secondary.

Of course, this rule has existed since ancient times. The most detailed record of it is in the "Quli Chapter" of "Book of Rites": The host takes the east steps, and the guest takes the west steps, which shows that the east is the noble status of the host and cannot be shaken.

After this rule spread, "East" was used to represent the host and respect in most occasions.

For example: the royal prince was called "East Palace", tenants and workers called the host "East Family", and tutors, teachers and other professions called their hosts "East Weng". And so on.

Therefore, although there is no difference in size between the East Wing and the West Wing, the East Wing is slightly different from the West Wing in terms of purlins, columns, beams (shafts), thresholds, rafters, doors and windows.

Han Li just felt something was wrong in the West Wing, but he didn't think about it. He didn't realize what was wrong until he arrived at the East Wing.

First of all, there is a big and a bit excessive kang in both the east and west rooms. It is nothing to say that this is nothing. It is normal for a family with many people to have a bigger kang. In the past, when there was no rationing of coal, almost all the houses in Sijiucheng were kangs.

Later, there was rationing of coal, and the activities of eliminating the four pests were carried out. Rats were the most harmful, and the space inside these kangs was their best hiding place. Whether for their own safety or for political achievements, in short, all kinds of reasons were added together, and there were very few houses in Sijiucheng that still had kangs.

Half of the east room of this courtyard was cut out as a street door. This can be said to be a helpless move, because if it was not done, the people living in this courtyard would have no way to go.

In this way, the originally decent east room was smaller in area, but why did the original owner build such a large kang in the house? And both the east and west rooms are like this. Is it really because there are so many people in the family? If there are so many people, why do you have to sell the house?

Han Li didn't know the original owner's situation, but he looked at the two oversized kangs and felt something was wrong, so he stretched out his mental power. This investigation really made him discover a lot of things.

There was nothing wrong with the kang flue in the east room, but there were two wooden boxes stacked in the corner next to the wall. The two boxes were full of small yellow croakers. Although the boxes were not big, each box contained a hundred small yellow croakers.

Han Li hurried to the west room and found three wooden boxes in a similar position. Two of the three boxes were filled with small yellow croakers, and the other one was full of various gold and jade jewelry.

Han Li was immediately happy when he saw this situation, and shouted in his heart that his mother was awesome. His mother's luck was unparalleled. She bought a broken yard and got so many valuables as a gift. If these things were exchanged, at least ten three-in-one courtyards could be exchanged at the current market price.

However, when Han Li wanted to put these boxes into the decomposition space, he stopped and calculated in his heart. He had a lot of gold and jewelry in the decomposition space, and putting these things in would only increase the number a little.

He currently does not have the time, connections, or information to turn them into houses.

But it is different for Han Ma. She has worked in the street office for so many years, and she can beat Han Li by several blocks in every aspect.

In addition, Han Li also thought that although he had given his parents a small amount of gold last time.

But if Han Ma has a good house and the family does not have enough money, he can't always use the excuse that he was lucky to pick up gold, right?

So it is better to give these golds to his parents. With these golds as a foundation, they will no longer be constrained in spending or buying houses in the future. When his parents live a comfortable life, Han Li can better follow behind and be a rich second generation who eats and waits for death.

However, the amount of gold in front of him is still a bit too much. There are 400 small yellow croakers in the four boxes, and there is also a box of gold and silver jewelry.

Han Li was worried that his parents would be too stimulated to get so many property at once, so he put the three boxes in the kang in the west room into the decomposition space.

After finishing, Han Li came to the east room, decomposed the place where the gold was hidden in the fire bed to make it collapse, just enough to expose the box, broke the lock on the box, and then tore off a few newspapers from the wall to cover it.

Next, Han Li locked all the doors of the house and the street, and rode his bicycle to the street office where Han's mother worked.

Han Li had just entered the street office and had no time to call for help, and was immediately surrounded by the aunts and aunties who were enjoying the cool in the yard.

"Han Li is here, you are getting more and more handsome, come and let the aunt see you."

"My nephew is not only getting more handsome, but also more promising. When others worked hard to earn work points in the production team, my nephew became the vice president through his own efforts. When others failed the exam, my nephew not only got into Yan University, but also became an assistant teacher."

"Isn't it? Han Li has been smart since he was a child, and now he is even more promising."

"You are so stupid. Why did you get engaged when you went to the countryside? Otherwise, auntie would like to introduce my niece to you. Your niece has a fertile body, which will definitely give your mother a few more grandchildren. Since you haven't gotten married yet, why don't you consider my niece? "

"Don't say that. Is your niece fertile? She is strong. If you want to say fertile, my niece is better."

Han Li hadn't even set up his bicycle yet, but he was asked a lot of questions by these aunts and aunties, without even a chance to interrupt. Fortunately, the street office was not big, and Han's mother quickly came out to help him out.

After some politeness and showing off, Han Li left the street office with his mother in the eyes of everyone.

As soon as the mother and son left, the discussion in the yard became more intense.

"Zhang Ping's children are really good. It would be great if my children were half as worry-free as Han Li."

"Half? You're really imagining. Sister Liu, your son's monthly salary should be 36 yuan now, right?"

"Yes, his salary is already considered high in the factory at his age."

"Do you know how much Han Li's monthly salary is?"

"The deputy section-level cadres in the Northeast should make more than 50 yuan, right? This is a little less than our city, but the salary of cadres increases slowly, unlike workers who can increase their salary as long as they have the skills. My son has made great progress recently, and it won't take long for his salary to catch up."

" Catch up? Sister Liu, Han Li has become an assistant teacher at Yanda. The monthly salary of an assistant teacher is 67 yuan. With his salary in the Northeast, this child's monthly salary is nearly 120 yuan. Your son can only catch up with his salary by becoming a technician. "

"Does the assistant teacher also have a salary?"

"Good guy, 120 yuan a month?"

"What's the big deal? The assistant teacher's salary will be gone after graduation."

"It's not bad to be able to receive it for a few years."

"I should have introduced my niece to Han Li earlier."

Han Li didn't know the discussions of the aunts and aunts in the street office after he left. At this time, he was dealing with his mother's inquiries.

"What's the matter with my son? I asked you all the way and you didn't say it."
