Haiyang and his wife also discussed it, and finally approached Fang Nuo. They took out more than 8,000 yuan that they had saved over the years, and asked Fang Nuo to go to Beijing and find a yard nearby to buy for them.
Fang Nuo thought about it and agreed.
Another week later, their small courtyard was successfully sold.
Then the team leader and his family bought train tickets and hurried back to Beijing to celebrate the New Year.
The start of school will be in the first month of the new year, so they can still have a good new year.
Buy a ticket and get on the train. This time, with the captain and his family, they can also rest on the train.
Two days and one night later, the train arrived at the Beijing Railway Station and Fang Nuo and others got off the train with the crowd.
At the station gate, they saw Father Fang and Uncle Fang who came to pick them up.
They haven't seen each other for a year, and they look a little fatter than last year.
Fang Nuo saw that it was still dark outside, so he didn't know when the two of them would arrive and wait.
After getting closer, he said: "Dad, uncle, didn't I tell you in the letter? We will be the first to take you back when we come. You don't have to come to pick us up. Why don't you listen?"
Father Fang took the bag from her hand and said with a smile: "Dad, I want to see you in advance. Let's go quickly. Your uncle has already called the car and is waiting. Let's talk about it when we get home."
Fang Nuo: "Let's go then, Uncle Cheng Jian. This is my dad and uncle. They have already called the car and are waiting. How about we go? Go home first."
Wang Chengjian: "Okay, okay, I'm troubling Xiaonuo's father and uncle here."
Father Fang: "No trouble, no trouble. Our Xiaonuo has told us that your family has helped her a lot in the village. There are elderly people waiting at home. Let's talk about it when we get back."
Wang Chengjian: "Let's go well"
Uncle Fang took the package from Aunt Dahua's hand and led the way.
There were two cars he called for. After the two families got into the cars, they drove towards their small courtyard.
Almost an hour later, we finally arrived at the entrance of the alley where we live. After a few people got off the car, they followed Father Fang and Uncle Fang into the alley.
It was getting a little brighter now, so Fang Nuo told Aunt Dahua about the surroundings while walking.
"It's just different here than in our village. This house is so overcrowded," Aunt Dahua said, looking at the environment that was filled with houses.
"That's really different, Auntie, the land in Beijing is very precious, so the houses are built densely," Fang Nuo said with a smile.
"That's true, but there are a lot of people who are rushing to buy a house here," said Aunt Dahua.
While the two of them were talking, they had already walked to the alley where their two families lived. After walking for two minutes, they arrived at the gates of the three courtyards.
Fang Nuo first told Dahua's aunts that the courtyard was their home, and then led others into the courtyard where Father Fang and the others lived.
Father Fang: "You are all tired after riding the train for several days today, so you should take a rest at home first. When you get some rest, you can clean up the two yards and burn the kang to make it warmer before you move in."
Aunt Dahua and the others didn't have any objections. They were all here, and they felt at ease.
Entering the house, Grandpa Fang and Grandma Fang were already waiting.
I also cooked breakfast for a few people and let them eat their breakfast before letting them rest.
When Fang Nuo and the others woke up, it was already the afternoon of the same day.
When Fang Nuo got up, Aunt Dahua and his wife had been up for a while and were chatting with Grandpa Fang and the others in the room.
Fang Nuo opened the door and walked in and said, "Grandma, is there anything to eat? I'm so hungry now."
"Yes, I will give you something warm to eat in the pot. Grandma will get it for you." Grandma Fang got off the kang and said.
"I'm going with grandma, hehe." Fang Nuo smiled and followed her.
Fang Nuo took the lead in eating in the kitchen. While eating, he asked Grandma Fang, "Grandma, have Brother Qi and the others gone out?"
"They went to clean up the two yards next door. Over there, your dad and the others cleaned it after the repairs were completed, but they haven't cleaned it since, so they went to clean up first," said Grandma Fang.
"That's it. I'll go over and take a look later," Fang Nuo said.
"Okay, if you want to go, just change your clothes. It's very dirty over there now," Grandma Fang said.
"Yeah, I understand."
Fang Nuo had a good meal and asked Grandma Fang to listen to the child wake up and call for help. She changed into very old clothes and went to the yard next door.
"Xiao Nuo, are you awake?" Shen Gongqi came out to pour out the ashes and happened to see Fang Nuo coming over and asked.
"Well, Brother Qi, how are you doing with your cleaning? Do you need my help?" Fang Nuo asked.
"No, it's very dusty here. You can go back to the house and wait until we finish cleaning up before calling you," Shen Gongqi said.
"I don't want to sit down now. I just want to move around. Please arrange a job for me," Fang Nuo said.
In the end, Shen Gongqi was defeated and arranged a light job for her, letting her burn the kang in the house while he gave her the firewood.
Fang Nuo burned the kang and went to the kitchen to boil two pots of water. After they swept away the cobwebs and ashes on the roof, she swept the floor and then wiped the furniture clean.
The furniture in the house was all bought by Fang's father and the others recently when they went shopping. The wood seemed to be quite good. Although some of the furniture was old, it was not badly damaged.
Regarding the new furniture made now, Fang Nuo prefers these old furniture.
After Shen Gongqi and the others finished cleaning this side of the yard, they went to the Wang family's side to continue cleaning.
After a while, Aunt Dahua came over to do these small tasks with Fang Nuo. The two of them finished cleaning up the yard and left it to dry.
The two of them followed several other people and moved to the next door. They first burned the kang, then boiled two pots of hot water, and then carefully cleaned the house.
After everything was done, it was getting dark outside, and everyone was having dinner at Father Fang's place.
After eating, we sat and chatted for a while, then everyone went back to their homes to rest.
The Fang family's yard has not been empty this year. Father Fang knew that Fang Nuo loved to grow vegetables in the yard, so he dug out the places where flowers were planted in the two yards and planted some vegetables for eating in the spring.
They didn't touch the Wang family's yard. After all, it was someone else's yard. It was up to the owner to make the arrangements.
Now the ground in the yard is covered with snow and there are no plants at all.
Fang Nuo saw that there was still a lot of free space in the house, so he thought about growing some cabbage in the house to eat.
She told Shen Gongqi about this idea at night. When she got up the next day, Shen Gongqi was already digging soil, filling it into flower pots, and then carrying it into the house to plant vegetables for Fang Nuo.
She sprinkled some cabbage, coriander, spinach, and garlic cloves, and watered them thoroughly after planting. Then she watered them once every two days, and once they sprouted, watered them once a day.
After planting the vegetables, she thought about going shopping. The big things at home were all in good condition, but there were still many small things missing.
So when she went out, she first went to Fang's courtyard and asked her grandma if she wanted to go shopping together.
