Siheyuan: The Era of Struggle

Chapter 24 Hidden dangers in the house

Looking at his father's expression, Yang Ning's stubbornness came up.

Yang Ning finally understood how it felt for a man in the old city to be seen clearly.

"Isn't it just a job? I'll go to the factory and ask next week."

"That's fine. As long as you can let me feed the couple at home after we move, we'll move after we find a house."

Yang Dagen put out the cigarette in his hand, then looked at Yang Liu and said, "Why are you still standing there? Hurry up and cook. Jia Zhang is dead. Does that mean our family won't have any food?"

"Boss..." Yang Liu wanted to continue persuading him, but after seeing Yang Dagen's determined expression, she moved her mouth, and finally could only sigh, picked up the apron beside her and shook it.

"Eat, eat, eat. I wish you two would starve to death. You just throw away a good house. That sounds easy. Then I'll see what kind of mess you two can make of this house."

Yang Liu was obviously dissatisfied with the father and son's decision. After all, this house was the proudest thing in her life.

Think about a daughter-in-law from the countryside who worked hard to serve her master for more than ten years. In the end, she not only brought her husband to the city, but also settled down in the city and had her own house. How many women have this ability?

But judging from the situation today, the father and son are determined to move. At this moment, Yang Liu's heart ached, as if she had lost her treasured possession, and she felt empty all over.

Thumb thump thump~
After hearing the sound of Yang Liu cooking in the kitchen, Yang Dagen pulled Yang Ning to his room.

"Does this house affect you?"

As soon as he entered the room, Yang Ning was stunned by what Yang Dagen said: "You can even guess this. It seems that we should never underestimate anyone who has survived the war.

He didn't understand when his father saw through it, but this was indeed one of the reasons why Yang Ning decided to move this time.

He remembered that when he was admitted to university a few years ago, the person in charge of the political review looked at his house and asked inexplicably: "Was it a gift from the Lou family?"

Although it did not affect Yang Ning's admission, when Yang Ning was about to start his internship some time ago, Professor Dong also implicitly reminded him to be wary of the enemy's sugar-coated bullets.

Yang Ning was not a fool, of course he understood what they meant. But thinking that this house was his mother's confidence at home, Yang Ning kept putting it off, thinking that he would solve this problem when he was about to graduate.

Unexpectedly, after the incident with Jia Zhang, Yang Ning wanted to take advantage of the situation and solve the only hidden danger to their family.

After all, in the eyes of some people, this house is nothing more than a sugar-coated bullet aimed at him.

Yang Ning guessed that in the original novel, Xu Damao had been scheming for so long and only became a small leader without a regular position during that special period, and it might be because the house was given to them by the Lou family.

"When did you figure it out?" Yang Ning felt that he had underestimated this man who was always suppressed by his mother at home.

"Tsk, I'm not a fool." Yang Dagen put his hands behind his back, walked around Yang Ning's room, and then found a stool to sit down.

"When we were assigned class status in 50, I knew things were different. When the comrades who came to investigate our family asked you questions after you passed the college entrance examination, I realized there was something wrong with our house."

As he spoke, Yang Dagen looked up at his son who was now taller than him, his eyes filled with relief.

"If you were an ordinary person, we would just live in this house, but you are different. If our family continues to live in this house, it would be like those officials in the past who accepted money and goods from merchants, which would leave a stain."

At this time, Yang Ning felt that the couple was truly a match made in heaven. Yang Liu might be confused about big things, but she was definitely smart about small things.

Yang Dagen would listen to Yang Liushi on small matters, but when faced with big things, he would be absolutely clear-headed.

Yang Ning felt that he was extremely lucky to have such a pair of parents in his life. "Hehe, that's why they say that old ginger is more spicy. My school teacher also reminded me to solve this problem before graduation."

Yang Ning chuckled and poured a glass of water for his father like a lackey so that he could moisten his throat.

"I'm not even forty yet, and I'm still full of energy." Yang Dagen picked up the water cup and took a sip, then glanced at Yang Ning.

"That's right, you are full of energy, otherwise how could there be two monsters?"

"Go away, go tell your mother about this if you have the guts." Yang Dagen felt both proud and shy after hearing what Yang Ning said, and was a little angry out of shame.

"That's incompetent." Yang Ning admitted defeat decisively.

After dinner, although her father had explained to her mother the reason for moving at the table, Yang Liu's face was still unhappy.

“Mom, think about it, if our family continues to live here, not to mention the impact on me, even if it’s the second weirdo.”

As he spoke, Yang Ning glanced at his brother who was having fun playing on the kang after eating, "If Ergua continues to live under the guidance of others, he will most likely grow up crooked."

"Yes, yes, you two are both smart people, and I am the only one who is confused, okay?" Yang Liu glared at Yang Ning and Yang Dagen, and finally sighed.

"I know what you're talking about. I just feel that after living here for more than ten years, I have to go to a place where I don't know anything and start over. I feel that I'm uneasy."

"Why are you panicking? Let me go to the factory and ask. If everything goes well, my dad will work at the First Machinery Factory. Then our family can be together every day."

Seeing that his mother's attitude had softened, Yang Ning quickly struck while the iron was hot.

"Can I go to your factory?" When Yang Dagen heard that Yang Ning was going to arrange him to his current factory, he looked at him in surprise.

Since they learned about the factory where Yang Ning was doing his internship, they also specifically inquired about the situation at the First Machinery Factory.

After asking around, I found out that the factory actually produced machine tools. Even some of the equipment for the third steel rolling mill was purchased from that factory. It was definitely high-tech.

Therefore, they thought that those who could work in the First Machinery Factory were capable people. They did not expect that one day, he, Yang Dagen, a rough man, would also have the opportunity to work in that factory.

"Can your father do it?" Upon hearing that Yang Ning could arrange Yang Dagen to work in the First Machinery Factory, Yang Liu no longer cared about her disappointment and became less confident instead.

"Why not? Just swing the sledgehammer like before." Yang Ning said confidently.

"Are there people who swing sledgehammers in your factory?" Yang Dagen couldn't believe it. Could it be that such advanced equipment was also made by hammering one by one? What a great skill that would require?

"The machine tool operating table also needs to be smashed into blanks. When the time comes, your work will be the same as that of a steel mill, so don't worry."

"Everyone in the front yard, come out. Director Wang is in a meeting."

Just when Yang Dagen was still dreaming about going to the No. 1 Machinery Factory, he heard Liu Haizhong's shouting outside the house.
