Courtyard House: They all say I'm a good person

Chapter 83 Lou Xiao'e Wants to Go to Work

Yu Li was cooking in the kitchen, while Shen Zhishou was knocking and banging on the door.

As a result, all the residents in the courtyard knew that Shen Zhishou had found a wrecked bicycle and was thinking about how to fix it.

"Brother Shen, how can this be repaired?"

When Xu Damao returned and saw what Shen Zhishou was doing, his first reaction was that Shen Zhishou was just busy doing nothing.

"Brother Xu, anything is possible with human effort!"

"What if I actually fixed it? I'm just sitting around doing nothing anyway!"

Shen Zhishou spoke calmly.

Xu Damao shook his head, saying, "If it could be fixed, no one would be selling it!"

"Brother Xu, what you're saying is misleading. Some people can do the same thing, while others can't. You can't generalize!"

"I think Comrade Shen is right!"

Yi Zhonghai, who was also watching the commotion from the sidelines, surprisingly sided with Shen Zhishou.

"Master Yi, you think it can work too, right?"

Shen Zhishou glanced at Yi Zhonghai.

Yi Zhonghai smiled and said, "It can definitely be repaired, but some parts need to be readjusted. You don't have the tools on hand, are you planning to borrow them from the factory?"

"It has to be Master Yi!"

Shen Zhishou laughed directly.

As fellow fitters, others might not know whether this thing can be repaired, but how could Yi Zhonghai, an eighth-level fitter, not know?

"Wow, old man, you really know how to fix things?"

Xu Damao looked at Yi Zhonghai in surprise.

Yi Zhonghai nodded.

On the other side, Liu Haizhong's expression was rather unpleasant.

At that moment, he couldn't quite hear whether Xu Damao said "Uncle Yi" or "Grandpa Yi".

No matter what Xu Damao said, it made Liu Haizhong feel uncomfortable.

It was at this moment that Liu Haizhong realized that having the surname Yi Zhonghai was a huge advantage!

But he was completely helpless!

"Old Yi, can this bicycle really be fixed?"

Yan Bugui's small eyes behind his glasses gleamed with a calculating light.

Clearly, he was also tempted.

If it could really be repaired, he would find a scrapped bicycle. He couldn't repair it himself, but he could ask Yi Zhonghai to help him.

By then, he will have a bicycle!

In this way, you won't have to keep thinking about buying a used bicycle from a trust store.

Although used cars at trust stores are cheaper than new cars, they still cost around a hundred dollars.

Yan Bugui was genuinely reluctant to part with such a large sum of money.

"It's definitely possible!"

"It's just that it's quite troublesome to repair!"

Yi Zhonghai smiled, "With Xiao Shen's skills, even if he can't completely repair it, asking his master to help with some adjustments shouldn't be a problem!"

Hearing a definite answer from Yi Zhonghai, Yan Bugui immediately perked up and said, "Old Yi, so you mean you can fix this?"

"We can do it, but we don't have the tools; we'll have to borrow them from the factory!"

"There are still some materials that we need to buy from the factory!"

Yi Zhonghai and Yan Bugui had been neighbors for many years, so how could he not understand Yan Bugui's thoughts?

However, because of Jia Dongxu's affair, he is no longer the manager of the courtyard house, and his reputation has been damaged. It is the time for him to restore his reputation, so even though he guessed that Yan Bugui wanted to take advantage of him, he did not deny it.

However, Yi Zhonghai wasn't too worried.

These scrapped bicycles are not so easy to come by.

Shen Zhishou was lucky to have encountered this opportunity, but Yan Bugui might not have been so fortunate.

"Old Yan, if you can find any scrapped bicycles, I wouldn't mind lending a hand!"

Yi Zhonghai, unusually generous, made a promise to Yan Bugui.

After hearing Yi Zhonghai's words, Yan Bugui suddenly realized that these scrapped bicycles weren't so easy to find.

When the residents called out for dinner, the crowd dispersed.

Shen Zhishou also packed up the bicycle that he had dismantled and went back into the house.

He bought a lot of tools for this bicycle.

However, no one cared where his tools came from.

Everyone's attention was focused on the bicycle.

"Will it work?"

Yu Li smiled and asked a question as Shen Zhishou entered the room.

"It has to be done!"

"At most next week, you'll have a bicycle to use!"

Shen Zhishou spoke with great conviction.

As a fitter, if you can't even fix a bicycle, then you really shouldn't call yourself a fitter; you'd be ashamed of yourself.

After the two finished their meal, they went to the central courtyard to wash the dishes. When they returned, they saw Lou Xiao'e coming back from outside. She was carrying a leather bag that looked quite full and heavy.

"Yu Li!"

Upon seeing Yu Li and Shen Zhishou, Lou Xiao'e exclaimed excitedly, "Perfect timing! I brought some apples, Guoguang, let me share some with you!"

"Thank you, Sister Xiao'e!"

Yu Li didn't stand on ceremony with Lou Xiao'e and went straight over to distribute the apples.

Perfect timing! Put the apple into the freshly washed vegetable bowl.

"Honey, could you help Xiao'e take the apples back? I want to talk to her!"

After distributing the apples, Yu Li continued chatting with Lou Xiao'e, but she didn't forget to send Shen Zhishou to do something.

Shen Zhishou smiled, picked up his briefcase, and walked towards the backyard.

When he knocked on Xu Damao's door, Xu Damao, who was having a drink, was taken aback when he saw Shen Zhishou coming over. Then he cheerfully invited Shen Zhishou to have a drink with him.

"Brother Xu, we won't drink any more wine. These are apples that Sister-in-law Xiao'e brought back. She's talking to Yu Li up ahead and will be back soon!"

Xu Damao reached out and took it, his body slightly unsteady, almost losing his grip.

Virtual!

Real or fake!

Shen Zhishou was quite puzzled. Xu Damao was already in such a state, didn't he have any idea of ​​taking good care of himself?

"Brother Shen, don't be in such a hurry to leave! Let me give you some apples!"

"No, Sister-in-law Xiao'e has already divided some for Yu Li. It wouldn't be right for me to take another portion back!"

"Nengcheng, take care!"

Xu Damao watched Shen Zhishou leave before returning to his room.

When Shen Zhishou returned to the central courtyard, Yu Li finally ended her chat with Lou Xiao'e and went back to the front courtyard with Shen Zhishou.

What are you two saying?

Shen Zhishou was quite curious about how Yu Li and Lou Xiao'e got along so well.

Such a situation does not exist in the story.

Yu Li smiled and said, "These are women's private matters; you're a grown man, don't pry!"

"Is that so?"

Shen Zhishou rolled his eyes at her and didn't continue the topic.

However, Shen Zhishou didn't ask any further questions. Yu Li, after entering the house, started chatting with Shen Zhishou, saying, "Honey, you said there were two job openings, one was as a sales clerk at the supply and marketing cooperative. Sister Xiao'e said she was interested. Do you think it'll work out?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Zhishou chuckled and said, "How would I know?"

"I still need to ask Xiao Wang!"

Whether the job openings at the supply and marketing cooperative are still available is something we'll have to ask Wang Mingliang.

After all, every job opening is extremely sought after these days!

"Then ask tomorrow!"

"And what do you think about me introducing my sister to Xiao Wang? You've seen how beautiful she is!"

"hehe……"

Shen Zhishou glanced at Yu Li. "I have no objection to you introducing other girls to Xiao Wang, but you know my sister-in-law's personality better than I do!"
