Rebirth of the Flying Era

When Du Fei came back, it was about three o'clock, and several people were working hard.

Some bored old women in the courtyard came over to watch the fun.

The old lady who lived in the main house in the backyard also sat under the eaves in front of the door, smiling and watching a few men working.

Although the old lady is old and a little deaf, her eyesight is not blurred.

Seeing Du Fei walking in pushing his bicycle, he waved to him from a distance and motioned for him to come over.

This old lady's status in the compound is extraordinary.

There are several revolutionary martyrs in her family, and many of her son's comrades-in-arms are now high-ranking officials, and they still retain some incense.

In addition, this old lady is very thoughtful and knows that favors become thinner the more they are used, so she never asks for help easily.

One can imagine how powerful this old lady will be once she opens her mouth to speak for something or someone!

But Du Fei had no intention of currying favor with the old lady.

First of all, the relationship between the predecessor and the old lady was average. In this compound, the old lady only doted on Shuan Zhu and didn't care about other children. Even if Du Fei went to show her kindness, he might not be able to win the old lady's favor.

Secondly, the old lady was of noble status and she was so old. It was inevitable to compromise when getting along with her. Du Fei had not yet thought of finding a living ancestor for himself.

Therefore, although he admired the old lady very much as a hero, he also kept a distance from her.

Seeing the old lady saying hello, Du Fei immediately walked over and said with a smile: "Oh, old lady, why are you still outside watching the excitement in this cold weather?"

The old lady was no longer deaf now.

In fact, she was not deaf in the first place. She just pretended to be deaf and interrupted sometimes when she met people she didn't want to see, words she didn't like to hear, things she didn't want to deal with.

"My old lady wants to sleep at home, but you kid made such a big noise, so I have to sleep!"

Du Fei quickly confessed with a smile.

The old lady stared at the ruins of his house, raised the walking stick in her hand and pointed at it: "Boy Du, you can't live anymore? You're just demolishing the house in the middle of winter."

Du Fei had long thought that if he made such a big noise this time, the courtyard would definitely be criticized, so he had to think of a reasonable explanation.

I just took the opportunity to explain to the old lady to make this statement public to avoid being gossiped about.

Du Fei deliberately grimaced and said loudly: "Old lady, I can't help it. Ever since my dad left, I was the only one left in Du's family. Now that I'm old enough, I have to start a family and start a career..."

When they heard that it was about having a partner, the old lady and a few nearby aunts and uncles who were listening attentively became interested.

The second aunt in the backyard interrupted: "Xiao Du, do you have a partner?"

"What's going on!" Du Fei waved his hand and said, "It's the leader of our unit. He sees that my character is not bad, and he plans to introduce me to a girl. However, the girl's family situation is very good. It's the house where my house used to be. As soon as the girl comes to the door, , you will definitely show your timidity.”

Upon hearing this, everyone felt that Du Fei's explanation made sense.

The second aunt hit the snake and followed it with the stick, and took the opportunity to ask again: "Xiao Du, which family is this girl from? Where does she work?"

Du Feixin said: "I didn't know!" On the surface, he looked embarrassed: "I haven't even written these horoscopes yet, so I don't dare to talk nonsense. If I don't fall in love, it will have a bad influence on this girl."

In fact, Du Fei's move came out of nowhere, not only to find a reason for his large-scale construction projects, but also to guide the public opinion of the compound.

In the past few days, he had been working as a temporary worker at the subdistrict office, and the news that his regular job at the steel rolling mill had been replaced by Sun Qiang had gradually spread.

Although Du Fei made some preparations in advance, he still said everything.

In particular, Director Sun didn't know how it worked. Sun Qiang, who graduated from high school, turned into a technical secondary school graduate. He joined the factory as a technical secondary school intern with a monthly salary of 37 yuan.

There were a lot of gossips saying that Du Fei went to work as a temporary worker at the street office, which was actually to give way to Sun Qiang and let Sun Qiang take over the job.

In various versions of similar rumors, Du Fei received a lot of sympathy as the victim, an orphan orphaned by a work-related injury.

But just as he had expected, when people sympathized with him, they also unconsciously despised him.

Du Fei's house repair this time, anyone with a discerning eye can guess at a glance that it will cost at least several hundred yuan.

At this time, news was released that a unit leader had introduced a partner to him, which further showed that he was not someone who could not speak up at the street office.

The former shows off one's financial resources, while the latter shows off one's status and warns those demons and demons that one is not someone to be trifled with.

As for the introduction partner's lie being exposed, Du Fei didn't have to worry, it was just an excuse and a temporary measure.

As long as time goes by and he gets better and better at the street office, such trivial details won't matter.

However, it was okay for Du Fei to deceive ordinary people with these excuses. The old lady was an experienced person and could tell at a glance that he was not telling the truth.

But the old lady didn't expose him, she looked at him with a half-smile, then turned around and went back to the house.

Du Fei didn't care.

Although the old lady lived a clear life, she had little to do with him.

The old lady went back to the house, and Du Fei said hello to Lei Laoliu. After staying for a while, he didn't have anything to do, so he planned to go back to the street office for a face-to-face meeting.

Although it's getting late now, as long as you get back before get off work, it won't be considered absenteeism.

By the time Du Fei took Xiao Wu back to the street office, it was already past four in the afternoon, and he would be off work in half an hour.

Just as he was about to enter the office, a middle-aged woman in her forties walked out.

The woman was so anxious that she almost collided head-on with Du Fei.

Fortunately, Du Fei reacted quickly and narrowly avoided by twisting his waist, but the woman was startled.

The woman staggered and didn't know what was urgent. She glared at Du Fei and walked away quickly without saying a word.

Du Fei was a little strange. He looked back at the woman's back and felt that she looked familiar.

Recalling it carefully, I vaguely remembered that this person was Aunt Zhao, the director of the neighborhood committee where the courtyard house was located!

Seeing her in a hurry, I didn't know what happened.

Du Fei opened the cotton curtain and walked into the office.

The atmosphere inside was obviously not as relaxed as usual, and several aunts and uncles were not knitting sweaters.

In the small office, Zhu Ting stared blankly and didn't know what she was writing. Section Chief Qian had a gloomy face and drank tea one mouthful at a time.

Du Fei noticed something was wrong in the atmosphere, so he quietly walked back to his seat, sat down, and asked Sun Lan at the opposite table: "Aunt Sun, what's going on?"

Sun Lan poked her head over and lowered her voice and said: "He's dead! The higher-ups just assigned a girl to our street a few days ago. It happened at noon today."

Du Fei immediately remembered that Section Chief Qian took him to the Women's Federation the day before yesterday.

At that time, the requirement from above was to ‘arrange it properly and make sure there are no mistakes’.

After listening to Sun Lan again, Du Fei understood the general situation.

In fact, the street office and the neighborhood committee cannot be blamed for this. The woman who died fled from the south and took her two children with her. She slept in the open air and became ill from overwork. She finally made it to the capital. Once her anger was gone, she became sick again. fall.

The neighborhood committee didn't waste any time. They immediately sent him to the hospital after discovering the situation, but he couldn't be saved.
